It will doubtless be several months yet before the hand is .altogether healed and it is probable that it will be considerably deformed but Glenn will be fortunate that he saved it at all, for a charge of shot passed from the side of the wrist apposite the thumb through the palm of the hand, tearing the bones «nd flesh as it went

FIRM FOUNDATION

Nothing Can Undermine It in Rensselaer. * People are sometimes slow to recognize true merit, and they cannot be blamed, for so many have beeA humbugged in the past. The experience of hundreds of Rensselaer residents, expressed publicly through newspapers and other sources, places Doan’s Kidney Pills on & Arm foundation here. Charles Malchpw, Harvey St., Rensselaer, Ind., says: “Kidney complaint and backache kept me in misery for years. The attacks came on so frequently that it seemed as if I was never free from pain. The small of mtf back was the part most affected, but often the pain extended through my shoulder* and even into my neck. The kidney secretions annoyed me by their irregularity in passage and proved that my kidneys were at faulty Years ago I learned about Doan’s Kidney Pills and on getting a supply at Fendig’s Drug Store, I began their use. After taking a few doses, I knew that I had at last found the remedy I needed. My kidneys were strengthened and the pains in my back were disposed of. I have taken Doan’s Kidney Pills since then when having similar attacks and I.never failed to get prompt and lasting relief. This remedy lives Up to all the claims made for it.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milbum Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.

Clubhouse On River Bank Withstood the Big Flood.

Captain Casey Hemphill and . his ancient and oriental order of river rats, who go dignified name of the Iroquois Club, are happy, as the waters of the raging Iroquois have subsided, to realize that their palatial club building is still an chored on the river bank and that the furnishings have suffered no worse damage than a thorough drenching. The Iroquois Club is composed of a number of boys about 14 years o ! age and the club house was erected during the past, year on the river bank near the River Queen Mills. It represented considerable boyhooc ingenuity and while not much larger than the ordinary chicken coop it still was large enough for a dozen members of the club to gather in and discuss the important events in the life of Slippery Zeek, Diamond Dick and Captain Kidd. The elub house was erected by direction of a first-class master mind. To begin with it was anchored better than most residences and although the high waters almost washed over its roof the clubhouse suffered no more than being toppled slightly to the side. In a second respect the location was near the base of supplies, the Hamilton & Kellner wood pile being right alongside. During the high waters no property owner in Jasper county watched his buildings with more solocitation than Captain Hemphill and his gallant aides and their hearts sank almost into their stomachs when the building wabbled, tipped slightly down stream anc then held fast. When the waters recede enough to permit the members to make an examination, the club house will be righted, the furnishings dried and the meetings resumed and the flood of 1913 will furnish a topic of discussion for many years to come.

Frank McCurtain, of Parr, Was In Cabin That Overturned

Frank McCurtain, of Parr,, was in Rensselaer over night, to secure medical attention for an eruption on his face, which has every appearance of being ivy poisoning. Frank, was in % one of the dredge cabins that overturned in the Powers ditch near Tefft last Sunday night and gave The Republican further information about the experience of himself and others. He and Alva Stephenson were in one of the cabins apd Harry Gilmore, Tom Fay, Emil Thews and Vic Comer were in the other. The wind that carried the cabins over occurred at about 2:30 o’clock Monday morning. Frank was awakened by a sharp lurch of the boat -ahd jumped from his bunk and struck a match, expecting to light a lamp, but he did not have time. The cabin gave another lurch and this time went over on its side. The two cabins were attached and both went over at the same time The six men on the boats all scrambled out of the windows and resembled half-drowned rats. Fortunately, the roofs of the two cabins had caught on the edge of the ditch and they were thus enabled to get to land and make their way to a nearby house where their clothing was dried out.' Frank was the cook on the boat but has resigned his job and will now work for a pickle company, having charge of one of the stations in this county.

Circumstantial Evidence.

This is one subject on which wellknown authorities differ as widely as on any subject that has ever demanded careful and thoughful consideration from the brightest jurists, journalists and political economists. To all, the question, “Is it right or just to convict a man of any crime on purely circumstantial evidence,” has proven an unsolvable question. In his play ‘The Conviet Millionaire, Mr. Carlos Inskeep does not attempt to solve this problem, he simply shows how easy it is to convict a man on circumstantial evidence of the most conclusive type, and still the man is innocent. ' He shows that we often in our own minds convict persons on general appearances, when if we but knew the truth and their real Selves, they are good, kind, and strictly honest. To all who enjoy a play with a great moral, plenty of the very beat comedy, a story that never lags and contains all the requisites of a pleasing performance, see ‘The Convict Millionaire.” It never fails to please. At Ellis Theatre, matinee ana night, Saturday, March 29.
