THAT BAD COLD

Taper Treatment Surely Does Clean Out That Stuffed Up Head in Record Breaking Time. Don’t try "to break up a cold with dangerous stomach disturbing drugs. Get directly to the inflamed membrane by breathing HYOMEI (pronounce it High-o-me). Get a bottle for 60 cents at B. F. Fendig’s and try t|iis rapid and economical treatment that thousands are using. Into a bowl of boiling water pour a teaspoonful of HYOMEI, cover head and bowl with a towel, and breathe deep into the lungs the healing vapor that arises. Breathe this vapor for five or ten minutes until the head lesls fine and clear, then go to bed and sleep soundly until morning. No cocaine or opium or harmful drugs in HYOMEI. It is guaranteed to end catarrh, or money back.

HANGING GROVE.

Mr. and Mrs. J. Ross visited Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Westfall, east of Francesville Sunday. Another big rain or two and the acreage of oats this season will be very small, as many farmers have not even sown a single grain. B. J. Gifford has a new dredge at work south of the Monon track, and has dug as far south as the wagon road. It is his intention to continue this machine on southward indefinitely. But he is hardly likely to have a train run over his road south o( McCoysburg for a few weeks at itpU.Wolves are again doing considerable damage here. Wash Lowman and Will Murray have each lost several sheep and lambs. Charley Bussell, having seen a wolf killing a lamb northwest of McCoysburg a few days ago, got a single shot at the wolf, which came near bringing it down. The other barrel of the gun had been fired and not reloaded. (Wash Cook dragged the road between his home and McCoysburg Saturday forenoon. This is an excellent way to smooth up the roads and should be made a compulsory act, that it Should be the duty of each supervisor to have the roads dragged every two or three weeks during the spring and summer months. Then it would not be long until rain would have very little effect on the roads.

STORM VICTIMS ARE IN CRITICAL CONDITION.

Mrs. Dennis Healy and August Kreuger the Worst Injured are Regarded in Very Grave Way. Mrs. Dennis kealy is reported' to be in a very critical condition and the outcome is very uncertain. Slie not only suffered the fracture of her collarbone and one rib and had frightful bruises about the face and head and body but is in danger of pneumonia because of the exposure which followed the cyclone., A trained nurse was sent for and will arrive from Chicago this Tuesday evening. She is at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. August Makus. Her husband is also there. He was literally with cuts and bruises, his face, head, arms, legs and body being scratched, cut, bruised and scraped. His face was filled with sand which had penetrated the skin. He fortunately did not haye any injury that is apt to prove serious. From him The Republican reporter was able to get a good story of the cyclone. Dennis and his wife lived on the Thompson ranch. They were seated in the kitchen when" the cyclone struck the house. Dennis related the story in practically the following manner: “The first thing we knew there was p crash of breaking glass as the, windows were crushed in and at the ■ame time the cupboard turned over on us and we began to spin around. I caughf Minnie, my wife, by the arm at the first crash and held to her all the time. The house went round and round and we were spinning about on the flor like tops. I had all I could do to hold to my wife. We could realize that we were going .up in the air. AH of a sudden the house turned on the side and we were pitched out of a door or through it I don’t know which. We were a good ways in the air and nntinued to spin about. In a second we were shot a considerable distance straight throught the air and alighted We were both rendered unconscious. It must have been an hour before I came to. We were Lying near the corn crib, about 100 feet west of where the- house -had stood and the water almost covering us. I thought Minnie was dead and I found myself almost unable to move. I struggled to a sitting posture and drew her head upon my lap. I did not have strength enough to get upon my feet nor to help her. She came to when I moved her body. I cried for help for a long time and felt that we Would both die soon. We had practically no clothes on our bodies and the cold water in which we were laying almost chilled us to death. Finally her father heard us and both of her parents came over from their home, and they almost carried us to their house.” Mr. Makus related how he had gone out in front of his house at about half past 8 o’clock and heard Dennis crying for help. The houses are only about 400 yards apart but Mr. Makus did not even know that a storm had occurred. They had to wade water to their knees in going after Dennis and Minnie. The Healy home is the most complete wreck imaginable. The disaster beggars description and on© can get but a faint idea of the awfulness of the wreck who does not visit the devastated territory. The mad fury of the winds left nothing undone. The foundation and a section of the flooring alone were left There was .not a board that was not broken and most of them into splinters. Not a piece of furniture that was not wrecked and broken intp hundreds of pieces. The cookstove was a quarter of a mile from the house, a heating stove was torn into many pieces and the sheet iron parts twisted around a sapling in the woods. The iron pump was palled out of the well and broken into several pieces. Only small parts of the organ could be found. The clothing was town into shreds and small particles were strewn about for a distance of a mile or more. Great trees were torn up by the roots, others broken off near the ground and others stripped of their limbs. Sometimes trees several hundred yards away from the destroyed buildings would be adorned

with wagon wheels, parts of farm machinery, broken pieces of joist, particles of clothing, bits of oilcloth -or carpet a tuft of hay, while ears of corn, dead chickens, ducks and pigs were scattered the entire distance. Fire could not have been more complete in destroying every valuable thing in the home. Dennis had a purse with about SSO in bills in it. The purse was found opqq, water-soaked and empty. A $1 bill was found near the stump of a sapling two hundred yards qway. August chultz lost a purse containing S2OO but this was found the next day in the ditch near the house, still intact Delos Thompson, accompanied by B. F. Fendlg and others, visited the devastated country Monday morning and then returned to town and procured clothing for the almost naked families. They met cheerful response from all quarters and later Mr. Thompson started a subscription paper and again found many willing signers. It was a most worthy and also a very urgent cause. August Kreuger is regarded in a quite bad condition. He was probably injured- internally. He has a frightful gash on his chin, which required several stitches to close. He is a gritty old man and his nerve will help to carry him through. The German-Lutheran church was apparently lifted straight into the air and let down with a whirling movement. The wreck is quite complete. By some freak the church bell was lodged in the forks of ajarge oak tree. The Wild Lilly school house, which was totally destroyed, was 'an abandoned one. Ed Oliver states that the water was not as high at Newland as our reporter made it appear. The high water was no slam at Newland, however, as this condition existed quite generally and wherever there was a low place In a field the water filled it to a level. The water ran off rapidly, however, and streams that overflowed their banks in the morning, were running two or three feet lower in the evening. Burk’s bridge was passable 36 hours after the storm. Several culverts were almost or entirely washed out, however, and will need attention from road supervisors at once.

Emmet Eldridge Broke Arm While Loading Anchor Posts.

Emmet Eldridge, son of Nathan Eldrldge, of Barkley township, broke the ulna of his left arm just above the wrist this Tuesday morning. He was helping load some heavy anchor posts and one of the posts slipped and pinned his arm against the wagon wheel. Dr. Washburn reduced the fracture.

The Grand Babylon Hotel

(Copyright The Frank A. Munsey Co.) CHAPTER V. What Occurred to Reginald Dlmmock. -e In another moment they were all three talking quite easily and with, at any rate, an appearance of being natural. Prince Aribert became suave—deferential, even—to Nella, and more friendly toward Nella’s father than their respective positions demanded. The latter amused himself by studying this sprig of royalty, the first with whom he had ever come into contract. He decided that the young fpllow was presentable enough, “had no frills on him” and would make an exceptionally good commercial traveler for a first-class firm. Such was Theodore Racksole’s preliminary estimate of the man who might one day be the reigning Grand Duke of Posen. It occurred to Nella, and she smiled at the idea, that the bureau of the hotel was scarcely the correct place in which to receive this august young man. There he stood, with his head half way through the bureau window, negligently leaning the woodwork, just as though he was a stockholder or the manager of a New York burlesque company. “Is your highness traveling quite alone?” she asked. “By a series of accidents, I am,” he said. “My equerry was to have met me at Charing Cross, but he failed to do so—l cannot imagine why.” “Mr. DlmmOck?” questioned Racksole. “Yes, Dimmoek. I do not remember that he ever missed an appointment before. You knew him? He has been here?” .» : “He dined with us last night,’’-said Racksole, “on Nella’s invitation,” he added miliciously, -“but today we have seen nothing of him. I know, however, that he has engaged the state apartments, and also a suite adjoining, No. 55. That is it, isn’t it, Nella.” “Yes, papa,” she said, having first demurely examined a ledger. “Your highness would dobtless like to be conducted to your rooms —apartments, I mean.” Then Nella laughed deliberately at the prince, and added: “I don’t know who is the proper person to conduct you, and that’s a fact. The truth ie that papa and I are rather raw yet in the hotel line. You see, we only bought the place last night.” . / “You have bought the hotel!” exclaimed the prince. “That’s so,“ said Racksole. "““And Felix Babylon has gone?” “He is going, if he has not already gone.” “Ah! I see,” said the prince. “This is one of Your American strokes. You have bought to sell again, is not that it? You are on your holidays, but you cannot resist making a few thousands by way of relaxation. I have heard of such things.” “We sha’n’t sell again, prince, until we are tired of our bargain. Sometimes we tire very quickly, and sometimes we don’t, ft depends—eh? What?” Racksole broke suddenly to attend to a servant in livery who had quietly entered the bureau and who was making urgent, mysterious signs to him. “If you please, sir.” The man by frantic gestures implored Theodore Racksole to come out* “Pray don’t let me detain you, Mr. Racksole,” said the prince, and therefore the proprietor of the Grand Babylon departed after the servant, with a queer, curt little bow to Prinde Aribert. “Mayn’t I come inside?” said the prihee immediately the millionaire had gone. “Impossible, prince,” Nella laughed. “The rule against visitors entering this bureau is frightfully strict.” “How do you know the rule is so strict, If you- only came into possession last night?” *\“l know because I made the rule myself this morning, your highness.” *Wt seriously, Miss Racksole, I want- to talk to you.” “Do you want to talk to me as the Prince Aribfert or as the friend, „tlie acquaintance, whom I knew in Paris last year ” “As the friend, dear lady, if I may use the term.” “And you are sure that you would not like first to be conducted to your apartments 7’ “Not yet. I will wait till Dlmmock comes. He cannot fail to be here soon.” “Then we will have tea served 1b father’s private room—the proprietor’s private room, you know.” “Gogd,” he said. ** * V _ (To be continued
