WATER POURED ON HOGS; 115 DIE IN FEW MINUTES

Lack of knowledge as to the best method to cool hogs the death of 115 of the animals here yesterday, the loss being placed at about $7,000. Employes of the Big Four railroad in this city unloaded four carloads, which were enroute from Evansville to the east, in order to feed and water them. Thinking to cool them quickly, cold water was poured on their backs and within a few minutes the 115 were dead. Tfcey weighed from 200 to 400 pounds each. Veterinarians say the quickest way to kill a fat and a hot hog is to pour cold water on its back. IS A REAL TAR. Raymond Dixey is home for a short furlough. He was one of the very first young men to enlist from this county and has been in the service for eighteen months. He is a memlber of the crew on the Montana, which is one of the four of our very best armored cruisers. He has made nine trips with this boat that goes to within about three hundred miles of the European coast. This takes him about two thousand five hundred miles from America During this time no Hun submarine has dared to show his head in sight of the Montana. ... i Raymond has the spirit of a real tar and his estimate of the American sailor is to be admired. He does not think the English sailor is m a class with the Yanks. If every man in the United States army and navy has the enthusiasm and patriotic spirit of young Dixey the Kaisers chances to win are mighty slim.

Mr. and Mrs. O T. F. Maloney of Kankakee township have just received a letter from their son Patrick, who is doing his bit with the American forces in France. I’qt enlisted on May 15, 1917, spent about six weeks at Fort Benjamin Harrieon at Indianapolis, was then transferred to Columbus, Ohio, to take up aviation; finished ground school there in September and on the 26th of that month sailed for France, where he immediately took up flying, receiving his commission of first lieutenant on April 1, 1918. He has been through England, seen considerable of that part of France in the zone of service of supplies and at the time the letters were written was in the district where Charlemange had his -tower, whicty ?till stands. There ie also a famous cathedral there and a chapel of the fourth century, he states. “I have been to three flying schools undergoing instructions. At one I could see from a fair altitude Mt. Blanc and the Pyrenees in another. Have flown several types of planes.’ Tours, France, July 2, 1918. My dear father: — 1 am writing this letter in reply to yours of June 3. Everything beautiful over here and shows up wonderfully from the air—finished up i mission I had in the air yesterday and then took a little trip around the country at a low altitude, look•inx over the- chateaus, the little lakes or ponds, and the woods-for-ests they call them here, and the largest are only three or four square mi i ea —and vineyards. These chateaus are wonderfully laid out ana from the air you can see plainly, and only from the air can.yOu appreciate the plans of the gardens and buildings—everything stands out plainly and the colors show up beautifully. The entire country Js beautiful at this time, but what to me is the most beautiful are the wheat fields. The grain is heavy and scattered thickly through it are large poppies, ranging in height from a few inches to nearly the height of the grain—the combination makes one great big bright boquet. You said something about people at. home being anxious to learn -oniothing from me about the air service. It is rather a hard request—to talk about the air service would be indiscreet, at least, and to talk about ones self would very likely be boresome, and, also, It would be taking an unfair advantage of my friends by forcing the “ego''stuff upon them. But this is the hope that we have and would like to. have the many, who are doing the necessary work at home, share with us, the U. S. air service will shortly come into its own and they will render such am account of themselves that the great expectations created, when, over a year ago, the air program was announced, will be more over here ask is the continued support of the government by the people at home that to date has been so unjvenß). Everyone here is impressed with what the folks at home expect from him and all at home can rest assured that he will do his duty well. Most respectfully, PAT.

Frank B. Ham and family returned from Fisher, DI., last evening, where they, were called two weeks ago by the serious illness of his mother, who is still very low. ' Charles Spencer had the misfortune to lose a fine big horse this morning.

PLACES CURB ON SALES OF INTOXICANTS

Washington, Aug. 12.—Sale of liquor in railroad stations or on railroad trains was forbidden by Director General McAdoo today in an .order effective and applying to all lines , under govemmentcontrol.
