FRACTURED ARM SUFFERED BY HILL

X-Ray Examination Shows That th» Lower Part of Humerus Was Broken in Tragedy. it Frank Hill proved to .have a much verse injury than at first seemed probable after the tragedy at /the stock yards that cost the lives of William Washburn and Moble Peacock. His leftr elbow, which was frightfully swollen and bruised, was made the subject of an x-ray examination Thursday and it was clearly shown that the lower end of the humerus was fractured, a crack showing plainly in the photograph. The arm has been extremely sore and it will he necessary for him to carry it in a sling for some time. Mr. Hill's escape from death is almost miraculous. The funeral of William Wash burr was held this Friday morning at the M. E. church and that of Noble Peacock will be held at the residence on River street Saturday morning in charge of Rev. Winn. Although Noble Peacock had only been employed by Mr. Washburn for day he and his mother had been neighbors of Mr. Washburn and family for a number of years and Mrs. Washburn performed an act of prac■.ical Christianity and charity that will meet the. praise of all the people of the community. On f Wednesday she railed to =■ Noble’s ipother and authorized ‘hern to buy for his burial thing that was needed at the undertaking establishment and that, she would settle all the funeral and burial expenses. This will relieve the sorely afflicted mother of all the expense.

RENSSELAER, INDIANA, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1912.

CURTIS H. S. PROVED EASY FOR RENSSELAER

Thanksgiving Visitors Made Such Poor Showing That Game Mas Very Poor Exhibition. Rensselaer had no trouble Thanksgiving afternoon in disposing of its football opponents, Curtis high school, of Chicago. The score was, Rensselaer 58; Curtis 0. The visitors showed by every attempt that they were poorly organized, poorly coached and not a worthy rival of the home team. Some remarked that, it was the poorest team that ever played a game in Rensselaer. The first kickoff made by Putts was dropped by Schroeder, the visitors right half back, and Rensselaer got the ball Within 25 yards of the boal posts. Miller made 6 yards arid Rensselaer lost the hall on a poor forward pass. But Curtis fumbled on the first attempt to carry the ball and Rensselaer got. the ball. After short gains by Putts, Choate and Miller, Putts tried for a drop kick but the ball went wild. A Curtis man tried to stop it before it rolled across the line and touched it. The ball, however, rolled across the goal line and was there secured by Emil Hanley for the first touchdown, two minutes after the game was starteej. After that scoring was made at short intervals. Choate was the particular star, making numerous long runs and demonstrating that he had too much speed for any of the visitors. Putts arid Miller played a star game- at running interference and in breaking up everything the visitors tried. Hanley, Eigelsbach, Captain Moore and in fact all the players were putting up the best gans they had played this year and they were in fine trim for a foe more worthy of them. Choate marie many long runs, the most spectacular of which followed a kickoff by Curtis at the_beginning of the second half. Miller stopped the ball which was rolling on the ground and started to the north side of the field. When the opponents had all surged to that, side he passed the ball to Choate, who went around the other end, running 85 yards and planting the ball between the goal posts. In order to permit the substitute players to earn the “R” for their sweaters, Coach Parker played much of the game with them. The names of those who are to receive the letter will be published in a subsequent, issued

Mr. and Mrs. Ed Oliver Were Host and Hostess at Turkey Dinner At Rensselaer House. . - > A Thanksgiving dinner was given Thursday at the Rensselaer House, Mrs. W. H,. Cook serving a splendid turkey dinner at which operators were the guests. The dinner was served on the order of Mr. and Mrs. Ed Oliver, who were not present, owing to the fact that they were guests at another dinner party. The table was beautifully decorated with fruit and flowers and groaneW beneath a load of turkey and all the good things that go to make up a fine Thanksgiving meal, which concluded with liberal slices of pumpkin pie. Ten of the central girls were present namely, Eva Clark, Daisy Morris, Bertha Davids, Alberta Waifson, Nelle j Timmons, Alice Swim, Beatrice Clift,’ Mable. Turnpaugh, Mary Shelly.and Mrs. Anna Edge. Each of the girls were given a carnation after tha dinner was over. Ts was a very pleasant affair.

GAVE LIBERALLY TO CHARITY FUND

Mayor Meyers Plaeed $43 la Hands of Committee to Be Used In Case of Emergency. Some time ago Mayor Geo. P. Meyera engaged in a little detective work that resulted in him receiving $42.23 as ihie part of the reward offered for the apprehension of a young man who undertook a case of blackmail. The mayor announced that he would not keep the money for his private use but would give it to charity and he called Mrs. Roberts by phone and arranged a meeting with the committee and wrote a check for $43, which is 77 cents more than the reward. Mrs. Roberts, Mrs. A. P. Burton and Mrs. IS. C. English consti* tute the committee. The fund will be kept separate from the money received at the charity entertainmnt Tuesday evening, and which, by the way, has been Increased to $75 and is in the hands of Rev. C. L Harper and is to be expended in such manner as the pastors of the various churches may decide. This gives a total fund of about sllß. The mayor’s generosity is very praiseworthy and certainly, the money will be spent in a manner to accomplish the greatest good in the way of practical charity.
