MARTIN’S BETTER HALF DENIES IT

Newland Woman Says Husband Did ~ Not Try to Kill Her and Asks Correction of Report. . t 1 : o>f It looks like George Martin, the ‘Newland citizen against whom a charge of assault with intent to kill his wife was recently filed and who was bound over to the circuit court after he waived a preliminary hearing, is going to have an important witness on his side of the case when it comes to trial. Will Postil! and other well meaning men at Newland responded to cries for help, according to their story and found Martin choking his wife and her so completely exhausted that she was semi-conscious for some time. They. said that Martin had made a threat to kill his wife-. But Mrs. Martin writes The Republican that it Is “all a mistake” and if her story can be believed then Postill and his companion rescuers were either dreaming or they found Martin and his wife simply indulging in a little play that they did not understand. The letter Mrs. Martin wrote to The Republican is as follows: Oct the 10 1912 Newland Ind. |Mr. Editor dear sir as there is a terible piece published in the repuly lican papr about George Martin of newland trying to murder me ihis wife I can say it is not so he didnt lock me up in the house nor say one word about killing me I wish you would tt correct the mistake as you was. not to blame that is to bad a piece to go over the country when it is not so that is not so one word of It. please correct the mistake yours truly from

Carroll County Hogs Dying In Bunches From Cholera.

The Corroll County Press, published at Flora, in the eastern part of Carroll county, says: “Many farmers throughout this part of the county have been losing their hogs in bunches with cholera, and those who have herds of young feeders that have not showed any signs of the disease, are selling them. Several car loads of shoats, weighing from 70 to 120 pounds, have been shipped by the local buyers this week. Some farmers claim that it- is cholera that is killing the hogs while others state it seems to be some new ailment. The disease seems to start from the Jungs and settle In the spine. The fAct that so many hogs are dying and being shipped, is going to make the price of pork to the consumer very high.”

RENEWED VIGOR AND ADDED PREPARATION

Teachers Will Go Back to Schools Better Prepared to Instruct Along Practical Lines. The Thursday afternoon session of the Institute at the M. >E. church was one of interest and novelty. Miss Votaw led the assembly in several songs to demonstrate the difference of imagination involved. There are two things which contribute largely to imagination in the singing of juvenile songs, namely: action and costume. To demonstrate this latter help to imagination concretely, Miss Votaw had previously arranged for several little children to be costumed to represent people from Holland, Greenland, China, Japan, Scotland and Germany. At the appearance of each the song representative of the particular notional music was sung by Miss Votaw. r - Following a short intermission Prof. Betts lectured on the power and use of suggestion. He demonstrated how suggestion is used in all walks of life and showed the superiority of tact over simple bluntness. His application of this for the school room was made in the conclusion in which he showed how the pupils had the power to suggest in the lives of the pupils some good by being the concrete representation of that good. Next Prof. Christie, after passing some of his literature around, held an actual class in seed identification and showed how this can be used in the public schools. Prof. Christie’s heart is in this work and his instruction is at the same time inspirational and yet concrete and practical enough for actual use in the district schools. Rarely does the last day of a county institute hold the attention of all as has the Friday session at the M. E. church. . Miss Votaw in her own charming way gave instruction in the riiethods of introducing part song music into the schools by means of rounds. Prof. Betts, who has made his pleasing personality and kindly help felt throughout the week next resumed his lectures on pedagogy, taking as his topic “The! Assignment.” Prof. Betts showed how this is one of the very important parts of teaching and gave much help relative to its perfection. Prof. Christie next held the attention of his listeners as only a man enthused with his subject can. Hia talk this morning covered, the question of more intelligent seed corn selection through the interest which the public school can and should arouse. Incidental to Prof. Christie’s talk, on corn growing he brought in the economic problem of better feeding. Also he showed how manual training work is to be introduced into the school course.

After further music instruction by Miss Votaw this afternoon Prof. Betts concluded his talks on pedagogy and left with the sincere thanks and best wishes of all the teachers who have been helped and inspired during his visit with Jasper county people. Prof. Christie cooperated this afternoon with Prof. W. D. Palmer in the orchard demonstration at the orchard of Mr. Randle north of the Monon depot. All the teachers go back to work next Monday with reriewed vigor, added preparation and extended visions of school work for this winter’s term. All feel indebted to Supt Lamson, to whose efforts is due the hiring of such a capable faculty. Schools will open again Monday*and continue the work.

TO ORGANIZE MUTUAL PROTECTIVE HAGUE

New Insurance Order to Be Founded in Rensselaer With About Forty ~ Charter Members. G. L. Anderson, who has been here for about six weeks organizing a local chapter of the Mutual Protective League, has secured about forty applications and the new order will be instituted this evening in a room in the Williams building, adjoining the Gleaners hall. Mr. Anderson has himself been busy making and placing the hall furniture and the hall .will present a very neat appearance when completed. The Mutual Protective League is based upon a scientific foundation and the cost is considerably "more than much of the fraternal insurance, but it seems to be nearer a business basis than some of the cheap insurance that has been in vogue for a number of years. John Moore, a special representative, was here this morning conferring with Mr. Anderson.
