Roy Ovalnian and llort Stall, For- I’lvscnt (iunic Law Makes it a I’entnerly With the C. A. Sims ('on- ally to Shoot the Little \nitnals strut'lion Co., Have Fatented l>e-| Jietween NOvemher 1 anil .ltd) I vice Known as the “Royltert (’him- of the Following Year—Warnin ' ney Sweep." To Hunters.
BOTH MEN ARE POPULAR HERE THE LAWS ARE BEING ENFORCES
Roy Ovelnian and Ben Stall, formerly with the C. A. Sims Constru,'tion Co., and each well and popularly known here have patented and are putting on the market a chimneysweep. The young men are now located in Altoona, Pa. In a letter received here this morning it is stated that either Mr. Stall or Mr. Ovelman would soon be In Greencastle to secure a ropresentative here to se'l and install their machine. The letter in part saye: ‘‘We expect to have a representative in Greencastle and for the surrounding districts in the very near future, to sell and install The Roybert Chimney Sweep. “Bither Mr. Stall or Mr. Ovelnian will be in Greencastle in person in a short time, to push the enterprise and start the ball rolling. “It Is the only article of its kind in the United States that is permanently installed in a chimney; it can be installed In any and all chimneys whether high, low. straight or crooked with the same satisfactory results and at a surprisingly lowcost. which makes It within reach of all and is positively guaranteed to do away with the conditions that cause chimney fires, which is the accumulation of soot in chimneys. "Not only is our Chimney Sweep valuables as a safe-guard against fire, but read our pamphlet and see what it will do for the house-wife. “Our Sweep is being indorsed by the Fire Underwriter's Associations as well -o the heads of the different fire departments over the country.” Although the invention is rimple, it carries out the ideas of the inventors and cleans chimneys of any size. The device has been made to fit any sized chimney and when once installed a child can operate it. It requires but twenty seconds to clean a
chimney.
The Royhert sweep is simple and durable. At the top and bottom are bars eontainlng pulleys. The bar at the bottom has a sprocket wheel and a chain extends the entire length of the chimney, attached to which is a brush the size of the chimney. \ turn of the crank attached to the bottom bar causes the brush to move up and down the chimney, cleansing the sides of dirt and soot.
The present game law makes it a penalty to shoot, destroy or possess any wild squirrel between November 1 of any years and the following July 1. It says nothing about the time from July 1 to November 1. ; Section G08 makes it unlawful to hunt any kind of game, except wild ducks and other water fowl, from October 1 to November 10. Both of these sections are in force today. The open season for squirrels is clearlj limited to the time between July 1 and October 1. The only closed season for rabbits is from October 1 to November 10. The object of this closed season is to keep the violators out of the fields that hunters who observe th law may have a fair chance at the quails November 10. The game lav. are being better enforced and more respected every year. Hunters should be careful not to go into the fields without their resident licenses, as some are paying heavy penalties for this violation. I am putting in a number of extra deputies for October with instructions to arrest all violator of every
kind.
Very Truly, Z. T. SWEENEY, Commissioner. Columbus, Ind., Oct. 7.

economy in the ready-made waist
With such prettiness and prices as our New Waist Line affords, what woman wants to spend her time making, or having a waist made? Just the yardage and trimming would likely cost as much as these “Finished Products.” L^e styles this season are particularly attractive. We show both the practical and the dressier effec's.

Tt will he remembered that sever'd months ago, Mr Connor, who is crippled and uses a crutch, was injured in a runaway caused by the horse becoming frightened at an automobile driven at an unlawful speed. He seems to be very unlucky in his experiences with his horse.

To the Voters of Putnam County: As to the candidates for the legislature in Putnam County we believe that Mr. Lane should receive the support of every temperance voter and that he should be elected. Until the call of the special session of the legislature the League had the utmost confidence in Mr. Hostetter. H** voted right on every proposition two years ago and the writer, himself a Democrat, took a great pride in mentioning Mr. Hostetter by name in all his addresses and pointing to him as a Democrat that could be trusted to vote right in spite of party Before we begun our remonstranc * fight at Roachdale we went to Mr. Hostetter personally and asked him if the fight would in any way endanger his prospects of re-election for we assured him that to have him in the legislature would be better fo.the cause than to have the saloons out at Roachdale. He gave his cov sent and tho saloons were remonstrated out of Franklin Township and Roachdale by a large majority. When the special session was called Mr. Hostetter, under the mistaken notion that it would be to the interest of the Democratic party and help elect Mr. Marshall governor of In 1iana, voted with the brewers and di tillers, against the home of the people. He did not fear defeat himself for Mr. Lane wired him that h-* would withdraw from the ticket and leave him an open field if he would vote for the county unit law. He turned his hack on his past life betrayed the confidence of his friends and voted with Crawford Fairbanks and Tom Taggart In order to advance the cause of Tom Marshall. If Marshall's election demands that men like Mr. Hostetter sacrifice their honor and life-long reputation is it not going to cost more than it will be worth? No one knows what to expect of Mr. Hostetter if he is elected and w ■ therefore believe he should he d**feated. Mr. Lane has promised to support temperance measures and his word is as good as gold. Vote for him and urge others to do the same. Yours truly, <> O. WHITENOCK, District Super in tendon:. We would especially call the attention of our readers to the above circular letter. Note particularly its radically partisan tone, its exaggerated statements, its unsubstantiated facts. It is the statement not of a
fair and sincere man. but of a nar- ; row radical, incapable of seeing broadly, incapable of giving credit for actions that are past. It is the statement of a man, who, seeing one thing can see nothing else, concludi ing that all who are opposed to him and his view are dishonest and dis- | honorable. That the Anti-Saloon League should, for its own reasons, prefer a man who would always willingly yield to its dictation without thought or personal consideration of | the thing desired is natural. That ( a fairminded man, In order to elect | such a retainer of the League, j should stoop to misrepresentation. to unprooved charges of dishonesty of purpose .and to insinuations against the fair character of such a man as Mr. Hostetter was not expected. A statement from an organization suppose! to have the tone and standing of the Anti-Saloon League should be on r. higher lever than the cheapest and most Irresponsible campaign literature. Such a letter would almost prove the often made assertion, that the League Is a partisan, at least not a broad-minded organization, an 1 not honestly in favor of temperance, but only its own brand of temper-
ance.

BIRTHDAY SURPRISE
Mr. Janies Curtis had a happy thought when he invited tho relatives of himself and wife to surprise her yesterday. Mr. Asbury O'Hair and Miss Carrie were tho first arrivals and they found Mrs. Curtis industriously sewing carpet rags. But she soon laid by her work ns the folks began to come thick and fast. Kuril family brought a basketful! of the best things to eat. The most interestlng article on the table was the huge birthday cake made by Mrs. Alf Curtis. 1843-1908 were the dates on the white icing in raised letters of pink. Each guest had a Piece of this fine cake. “Aunt SaHna” was remembered with many beautiful and useful gifts.

i Attorney George A. Knight of this city, was stricken with apoplexy at Indianapolis Wednesday night where he had gone to attend the wedding of his son, Edward H. Knight. The attending physicians stated that Mr. Knight's condition was brought about by the rupture of a blood vessel at the base of the brain, and that his condition was very serious. G. G. Kerfoot Friday morning received a telephone message from his wife, who Is at the bedside of her father, George A. Knight, In Indianapolis. The message stated that Mr. Knight shows no improvement over ills condition of Thursday. He still lies in a stupor. Several days ago Mr. Knight went to Indianapolis to see a specialist relative to his condition. The doctor told him that h*’ had sustained a rupture of a blood vessel on the brain, and that only careful nursing would bring relief. He was ordered to bed and the most powerful medicines were given in the hope of absorbing the blood clot on the brain. It is hoped that he will s- im be able to return to this city an 1 to ills home. Mr. Knight, who is OK years old, has been one of the most energetic and hard working attorneys In Indiana, and the strain bus been too great. It fs believed that he will be forced eventually to give up the practice of law. About the time tlie McDonald trial opened at Terre Haute, Mr. Knight, one of the attorneys for the otate. suffered what appeared to he a slight stroke of paralysis, and from It he seemed unable to recover. His family became alarmed and prevailed on him to consult a specialist at Indianapolis. He went to that city a few days ago intending to see the specialist, and at the same time attend the wedding of his son, Edward. However, as foon as the specialist examine! him he ordered him to bed.—Brazil Times.
