CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE IN SUNDAY’S STORM
Outbuildings Damaged by Wind and Lightning—Very Heavy Rain and Some Hail.
A very heavy rain occurred between 6:30 and 7:30 o’clock Sunday morning and it was accompanied in some parts of the county by a heavy wind and some lightning bolts that will cause local insurance agents to get busy in making settlements, The worst damage seems to have been in Union township, east and northeast of Parr, in about the same locality that was hit in April of last year, but this damage was only a little amusement compared to the big cyclone of a year ago. Dennis Healey, who with his wife so nearly lost their lives last year, was a loser by this storm, having a carriage blown over and broken. Other losers were: Wesley Fay! or, whose silo < was twisted about on the foundation. Will Schultz lost a corn crib. Tom Murphy had a summer kitchen and some outbuildings damaged and shingles torn off his barn and house. Tom Lonergan had a silo and crib blown down. S. A. Brusnahan had a windmill wheel blown off and a cherry tree blown dow’n. , The Rosebud church was struck by, lightning and suffered slight damage. Ed Grant, west of town, lost a good cow by lightning. Lee Matheny, northeast of town, suffered som' loss by damage to his house. Mrs. Joseph Williams had some windstorm losses. Theodore Snow also had some damaged outbuildings. The Henry Amsler farm near Surrey which is occupied by his son, Floyd, suffered some damage to outbuildings. Charles P. Moody had a silo blown over. Ora Michals had window lights blown out of the house. Heavy hail fell in Rensselaer and is reported from some points in the country.
M. L Pass Moves On To State of Washington.
Monroe, Wash., May 26, 1913. Editors Republican:
• The haymaker got busy and melted snow so fast as to put the mills at St. Joe, Idaho, out of business for from two to four weeks. That gave me the “wanderlust” fever, so I left there May 22nd bound for this place. Daylight the following morning found us in central Washington at Beverly, a wonderful country, whose soil is cobblestones; sand and boulders, and whose principal crops are jack-rabbits and rattlesnakes, but this condition did not last long and we passed through some fine country at Ellensburg. At Laconia we reached the highest point, being 3,010 feet above sea level, and passed through considerable snow from one to three feet in depth. It is shielded from the sun by a dense growth of pine trees. We passed through miles of trees that would square eight inches from sixty to eighty feet above the ground and not a limb to cut. The western slopes of the Cascades receive so much moisture that there is a heavy growth of shrubbery under the trees, and as fast as the trees are cut grass starts. Not so with the Rocky mountains. I think they will be bald until the judgment day. At Cedar Falls we left the foothills and plunged into a valley, where all is life, beauty and joy. It is a veritable dairy valley, forty miles to this place and during twenty-five miles of the distance we picked up 320 cans of milk, a daily occurrence The Pacific Coast Condensed Milk Co., has a plant at this place and it gets the milk of the valley. Nor is this all that is going on in this beautiful timber, and several times our ears were treated to the buzz of the circle saw.- Land is cheap, but none for sale, and is held at the remarkably low(?) price of from S2OO to SSOO per acre. I do nit expect to stop here very long, so please hold my papers, as I do not care to miss a single copy. With regards to yourselves and the many friends In good old Jasper, I remain, sincerely yours,

CARELESS SMOKER SET AUTO ON FIRE
0. A. Robbins, President of -Centaur Motor Co., Almost Lost a Large Abbott-Detroit Oar.
A 7-passenger Abbott-Detroit auto, owned by C. A. Robbins, of Chicago, caught fire Saturday afternoon just after the gasoline tanks had been filled in front of the Rensselaer Garage. The gasoline had run over and one of the four tnen with Mr. Roberts struck a match, lighted a cigarette and flipped the match under the car. There was a conflagration at once and the car was enveloped in flames. It looked like a gonner but the fire company was called out and made quick response. Deputy Fire Chief Rhoades was at work in his barbershop when the alarm was sent in and he and his son, Kenneth, used three Pyrene extinguishers in subduing the flames and the result was so pleasing to Mr. Robbins that he told Chief Montgomery and Deputy Rhoades that he would pay all the expenses of Subduing the fire. Robbins was very enthusiastic in his praise of the fire company.—He is the same man who undertook to make a 'hasty get-away after forcing a buggy in which Mrs. J. A. Lucas and Mrs. Jack Reeder were riding into the ditch. He was apprehended, however, and his indifference and carelessness on that occasion cost him heavily. He will begin to think that Rensselaer is his “jonah” town. The upholstering and the paint on the car were burned and the righit rear tire suffered some damage from the flames. It will probably cost $75 to restore the damage.
ASKS COURT TO APPROVE OF SALE
Robert P. Ingalis Says That All Preliminaries Have Been Agreed On for Gifford Road.
Robert P. Ingalls, of Chicago, was here a short time this morning and before he left town he stated to The Republican that all Important details had been agreed upon for the purchase of the Gifford railroad. Mr Ingalis spent most of his time while here with Ed Oliver, who has been actively engaged in the effort to make the deal. Mr. Ingalis says that everything practically has been settled and that the money will be paid very soon. He called upon Judge Hanley and asked that he approve the sale. He is understood to have quietly informed Judge Hanley who the backers of the road are. He does not want this to become public, however. Mr. Ingalls says that if the road is purchased new steel will be laid over the entire system, the old ones being worth only about junk price. The road will be extended north to Crown Point and south to the coal fields at Brazil. Mr. Ingalis also says that a branch will be built to Rensselaer, just as Mr. Oliver has all along said there would be. 'Mr. Ingalis says that the deal is certain to be made and that it is only being delayed to permit every feature of it to be considered by the financiers. While the ro*>d land is to be bought for only $600,000, it is probable that a million more would be spent yet this year in extensions and rebuilding.
Miss Nelle Makeever, of Mt. Ayr, and Miss Mary Jane Phillips, of Roselawn, were here Sunday, and this morning went to the former’s home at Mt. Ayr. Makeever has been visiting at Lowell and Chicago and the little Phillips girl has been visiting at St. Anne, 111.

FACT
Local Evidence.
Evidence that can be verified. Fact is what we want. Opinion is not enough. Opinions differ. Here’s a Rensselaer fact. You can test it. Mrs. Aaron Hickman, N. Front St., Rensselaer, Ind., says: “In my opinion Doan’s Kidney Pills are •the best kidney medicine on the market. I haVe taken them at different times when suffering from attacks of backache and other symptoms of kidney complaint and I have always had prompt relief. Over three years ago I first * used them and they proved so satisfactory that I have had no desire to change to any other remedy. I was so well pleased with the benefit I received from my first trial of Doan’s Kidney Pills that I gave a statement for publication on recommending them. Since then when I have heard anyone complain of kidney trouble or backache, I have suggested that Doan’s Kidney Pills be procured at Fendig’s Drug Store and given a triak Different ones of my family have taken thia femedy and life myself have been greatly benefited.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States. Remember the name—Doan’s—and take no other.
