No Federal Investigation Of Automatic Fan Company.
Last week The Republican in a short paragraph stated that stock was being offered for sale in a concert! that it was reported had been the subject of a federal investigation. The company mentioned was the National Prepayment Fan Co., with headquarters at Vincennes and the representative of tfte company was Frances H. Joy, of Indianapolis. Mr. Joy called upon the writer following the appearance of the article and stated that he bad begun work for the company but recently and that it had been well represented to him and he believed was a safe investment and one sure to pay good dividends. He asked that an investigation be made and accordingly a letter was sent to an attorney in Vincennes and a reply received from him states that he remembered that the newspapers in Vincennes carried advertisements for the company and that the people mentioned as officers of the concern indorse the scheme. Beggs is a wealthy owner of a distillery, LaPlante is a very prominent and wealthy young capitalist and Hill, the secretary of the company, is the city attorney and a young man of good repuattion. The writer says that ‘*the whole thing does not look very good to me.” Mr. Joy feels that an injustice has been done to him and the company he represents and in a telephone communication says that he has investigated and found that there was another company investigated for alleged irregularities and that messages were sent from Terre Haute about the other company. Mr. Joy will probably return here to try to close up some deals in the stock he was offering and any who consider it good should not be influenced by the report that there had been any federal investigation, for evidently there had not been and the stock may turn out all right, but Frank Foltz, who addressed a number of citizens at the court house one evening last week advised against the purchase of any kind of stock, saying that he had been advised when a boy to let i.ll kinds of stock alone unless he could buy enough to control the company. The fan proposition is to place fans that work automatically when a nickle is dropped in and run for one hour in hotel rooms. They are expected to earn big dividends as the hotel company gets only 134 cents out of each nickle and pays for the juice out of that. The fan company buys the fans from the General Electric Co. and is protected -from infringement by patent. They expect to put fans in all the big hotels of the country and now have a number in operation in the south. The company is capitalized for $1,000,000. The par value of the stock is $1 per share.

Miss Agnes Platt, deputy county auditor, was not operated on for the removal of her tonsils until Tuesday of last week. The operation was performed at Wesley hospital and she was well enough to be taken to the home of her aunt at 933 Crescent Place the following day and she is still there and is now about recovered but still under the care of a physician. We have fresh fish every day at the lowest market price. We also carry a nice line of fruits, candies, potted plants and cut flowers. Give us a trial. —Osborne Floral Company, Phone 439. Mrs. Mark Reed and daughter Opal, went to Fort Wayne today to visit her older daugther, Mrs. Frank Boratrager and family for about two weeks.

Filed Application to Have His Name Changed.
A rather perculiar application was filed yesterday by a young man living in Kankakee township, through his attorney, Roy Blue. The young man, at present known by the name of Arthur Dean, has asked to have his name changed to that, although his legal name is Arthur Jenkins. When a small child his parents separated. His father’s name was Jenkins but when the couple separated the little boy was sent away to school by his mother and his name was changed to Dean so his father could not find him. Since that time the man has been known as Arthur Dean. The application is filed in his legal name, Arthur Jenkins.
