FURTHER RELIEF FROM QUARANTINE
Quarantined Zone Limited to Three Miles of Places Where Infected Stock Was Slaughtered. So .far there is no indication of further trouble in Jasper county from the foot and mouth disease and Dr. Kannal has issued an order . materially modifying the terms of the first order. The zones of restriction now center about the Tom Logan farm in Gillam township and the Brown ranch which adjoins Keener downship on the west. The quarantine remains in full force within a 3-mile radius of the Logan farm and within 2 miles of the Brown ranch. The relief makes it possible to resume shredding, to haul hay, fod- * <der, etc., and to drive stock along and across roadways and to ship Jive stock and live poultry upon examination and certification by a licensed veterinarian. The full text of the order is pub- , lished as an advertisement in this issue of The Republican and every person should read it in order not to be guilty of violation of the provisions. .. - • V Another fright was created in the . state Thursday when new eases of the infection developed in Tippecanoe county within a half mile of the place the disease existed before. Fifteen head of pigs died Thursday from the disease on the farm of Bruce Taggart, of Tippecanoe county.

TWO INJURED AND AUTOMOBILE WRECKED
Thanksgiving Accident Due to Reckless Driving While Bottle of Whiskey Figured. Charlie (Marlin and Lou Hickman have cause to be thankful that’ tpey are yet alive, while Ed Oliver, who owned the 1912 Buick roadster that was wrecked on Thanksgiving morning is wondering where his cause for thanksgiving comes in. The accident occurred at the W. H. Beam corner at about 11 o’clock Thursday morning and the most completely wrecked automobile we have ever seen is now at the Central Garage, while Marlin and Hickman are at their homes in care of physicians. Marlin, who was driving the car and who is apparently entirely to blame for the accident, suffered the less, having his left wrist broken and some cuts and bruises about his face and head. He fell free from the car. Hickman was pinned beneath the car and suffered the fracture of his right arm at the elbow, a broken nose and a long gash across his scalp. Also other bruises. It Was first thought that his skull was fractured but this proved not to be the ease.
The ,car belonged to Ed Oliver and had just been undergoing repairs at the Central Garage. ’Mr. Oliver was in Lafayette and had sent word to Harve Moore, the auto liveryman, to meet him at the depot in Moore’s car. Harve was not feeling well and asked Marlip, who was employed at the garage, to take Oliver’s car to the depot for him. It was just about train time. Hickman climbed into the car with'Marlin. Marlin was driving at reckless speed, according tb severaKwJro saw the car in its flight and According to Hickman, who states that he asked him three times to reduce the speed. Devere Yeoman was driving to the depot and Marlin dodged around Yeoman's car, passing it on the right side. At the Beam cross ing there is a considerable rise caused by the sidewalk crossing and as the car struck this there was an explosion, probably a bursting tire and Marlin lost complete control of the machine and it dashed into a telephone pole, which it broke off, and the car turned over, Hickman underneath, while Marlin went high in the air and fell ifree. Some estimate that the car was running at a speed from 35 to 45 miles an hour. The only surprise is that both the occupants were not killed outright. A quart bottle of whiskey found in the seat of the automobile may have figured in the accident. It was almost empty. In justice to Hickman it should be said that he is not a drinking man, while reports concerning Marlin are conflicting. Whether under the influence of liquor or sober, there seems no excuse for the reckless .speed at which he was driving and the accident is the result of his
folly. The car is probably so badly wrecked that nothing can be done with it. The front axle was torn off, one wheel being a mass of twisted and broken wire spokes. The rear axle is bent, the fenders of the car mashed into a mass, the front springs twisted, the lamps broken off, the windshield torn off and the body of the car cracked and sprung. The ear had recently had new wheels and new tires put on it at a cost of almost S3OO.

ANDREW GRANGER FIGHTS REQUISITION
Indicted in Cook County He Starts Habeas Corpus Proceedings, to Prevent Removal. Andrew 1 Granger is under arrest and in the Jasper county jail in this city. The arrest was made upon an indiitment issued by the Cook county, 111., court, charging him with having stolen the Cadillac automobile of Ogden McClure, of Chicago, on fOct. 30th. Before his arrest was ordered requisition papers from Governor Dunne, of Illinois, had -been signed by Governor Ralston, of Indiana, and Granger would have been turned over to an officer from Illinois after his arrest had he not begun habeas corpus proceedings to prevent his removal from Indiana.
The requisition alleges that he is a fugitive of justice from Illinois, and it is set out in the habeas corpus proceedings that he could not possibly be a fugitive of justice from that state since he had not been there on the day the alleged theft is supposed to have been com-< mitted and hot since that date. After the habeas corpus proceeding was begun Granger made affidavit for a. change of venue from Judge Hanley, alleging that the judge was prejudiced against him? Moses Leopold was selected to trg, the proceeding and the time was set for 3:30 o’clock Saturday, afternoon. On the Same day, Andrew’s father, “Hank” Granger, will be given a hearing before Justice Mock, of Kentland, also on the charge of complicity in the automobile rob-beries-which. took place in Chicago and whjch resulted some time ago in the activity of detectives in the Kankakee river district and the recovery by replevin of a number of cars which the Grangers had sold and which are alleged to have been stolen. Attorneys A. Halleck and W. H. Parkinson are ripresenting Andrew Granger and John (A. Dunlap is representing the automobile people and the state of Illinois.

Acute Attack of Pneumonia Removes Woman of Much Worth After Very Brief Illness. No death tor a long time has caused a greater shock in the community than the passing away at 5 o’clock this Friday morning of Mrs. Albert Brand, formerly Miss Dora English. She had been sick only since Monday night and only a few seemed to have learned of he£ sickness. Mrs. Brand was seized with an acute attack of pneumonia and it assumed a serious condition at once. The family doctor was called Monday night and found one lung seriously affected. By Thursday morning, however, she seemed some better but by noon of that day she again became much worse. The heart was unable to keep up the effort to pump blood into the affected lung and it took powerful stimulants to revive her. Again she improved only to suffer another attack in the night that could not be overcome.
Mrs. Brand was the youngest child of John English and was born 45 years ago in Barkley township. On Nov. 14, 1906, only eight years ago, she was married to Albert E. Brand and to their union was born one child, Mary E, “ftfafid. Only a few rhonths ago her siste< Mrs. English, died, and it is not a great while since Mr. Brand’s mother died.’ The family has certainly been greatly" afflicted.'. The funeral arrangements have been deferred pending the receipt of word from her sister, Mrs. J. D. Brosnahan, of Keisling, Wash. It will be conducted by Rev. W. G. Winn, now of Irving Park, 111., assisted by Rev. G. W. Titus.
PIPE ORGAN FOR M. E. CHURCH PURCHASED
Committee Selects a Kimball Organ After Thorough Investigation of Several Makes. ( The committee appointed by the official board of Trinity Methodist church to purchase a new pipe organ, matte a second trip to Chicago Wednesday and as a result of the most careful and discriminating investigation finally bought the pipe organ from the Kimball Company, Chicago. The committee all went to Chicago except W. O. Rowles, but he was acquainted .with the Kimball Company organ and was in favor of that selection. . >
Dr. Curnick, J. J. Hunt, J. D. Allman and Dr. M. D. Gwin were the members of the committee who went to Chicago. Mrs. Dr. Gwin accompanied the committee by request, as she is the organist of the church and the committee desired her judgment on the matter of selecting the neyv organ. The committee made a very careful study ot pipe organs and had several organ men visit the city and make their estimates. The Kimball Company is one of the largest organ manufacturers in America and have installed organs in many of the largest churches in the country. They have pipe organs in Lafayette and many other of the best churches in Indiana.
The organ will have all the latest improvements. It will be electric action, with oscillating stops and will have a wonderful combination of tone and harmony. The pipe organ will be placed back of the pulpit with a beautiful front extending from the east, to the south walls. The keyboard will be in the southwest corner of the choir room. The committee feel assured that they have bought as good an organ as could be purchased with the-gift of Mr. George E. Hosmer, and it will be the largest pipe organ in the city.

Capt. “Bill” Eigelsbach again proved the individual star but was very ably assisted by other members of the team.. Swaim, Price and Lakin broke up play play before the Bowen team could get started. Babcock at fullback played a splendid game. Hopkins not only opened up holes for line plunges but made several good gains on tackle plays. “Abe” Moore and “Booster” Eigelsbach both played well at half back, while English proved a forward pass fiend. He picked no less than seven passes out of -the air and made substantial gains. Loy is playing a great game at center and passes the ball well.

iSoderstrom, captain of the Bowen high school eleven, played a good game, but it was a chunky little fellow named Sugrue who made most of the gains for the visitors. Eight of the R. H. 8. men have played their last game of high school football. It is probable that several will attend college and some of them are sure to make a mark in college athletics. Those who will graduate with this year’s class are Captain Eigelsbadh, Babcock, Swaim, Hopkins, English, Simons, Price and Gant.
