AUTO WAS STRUCK BY TRACTION CAR

FRANK SANKEY, OF COVINGTON, KY., WHO VISITED IN GREENFIELD, WAS KILLED AT

STRAUGHN SATURDAY

WAS UNCLE OF ROY BATEMAN

Another Man, Samuel H. Murphy, Badly Injured—Sankey Was Visiting Henry Bateman at Straughn and Expected to Return Home on

Saturday Evening.

Hoy Bateman, of Wood street, was called to Straughn, in Henry county, Saturday afternoon by the death of his uncle, Frank Sankey, of Covington, Ky., who had been visiting here and was killed when the automobile in which he was riding with Samuel H. Murphy, was struck by an interurban car.

A Straughn special in the New Castle Courier of Saturday, says: "Frank Sankey, aged 68, of Covington, Ky., was killed this morning about 10 o'clock, and Samuel H. Murphy, a well known farmer residing near here, was badly injured, when the automobile in which they were riding was struck by the west bound Dayton Limited on the T. H. I. & E at the crossing here. Sankey was almost instantly killed, having been horribly wounded.

Mr. Murphy suffered three fractured ribs and what is believed to be internal injuries. He was in a semi-delirious condition this afternoon and the full extent of his injuries could not be ascertained. "Mr. Sankey and Mr. Murphy were returning from a trip north of town .when the accident occurred, and were enroute to Mr. Murphy's home. Mr. Murphy was running the automobile, his property, and evidently did not hear the car approaching. "The automobile was struck in the center and completely demolished. The occupants of the machine were hurled for some distance. When spectators arrived on the scene Sankey was still alive, but unconscious. He was lifted from the debris of the demolished car and placed on the roadside, where he expired a few minutes later. Mr. Murphy was conscious when rescued, but soon after fainted from the intense pain of his wounds. "Sankey had been here and in this neighborhood visiting Mr. Murphy and other relatives, including Henry Bateman and family, for several days. He is married and has a family in Covington, Ky. In addition to a fractured skull, he was mangled on the right side and had several broken bones. The body is being prepared for burial at a local under taking establishment. The arrangements for the funeral have not been made. "Mr. Murphy is one of the best known residents of Dudley township. He is president of the State Bank recently organized here, and is an extensive landowner."

MEN WANTED.

No Man Over 45 Need Apply. There's the sign that's getting to be a common thing in America.

Corporations are retiring men at 50. They are not hiring any over 40. A bald-headed man often looks 10 years older than he is.

A man with gray hair always does. It is important nowadays that a man look as young as he is it is vastly important that a man having a family dependent upon him should take care of his hair.

If you have dandruff—get rid of it by killing the germs. If you hair is falling out—stop it.

If your hair is turning gray— don't waste any time. There is one sure remedy that will cure these misfortunes and aid you to remain young.

Parisian Sage, the great Hair Restorer, is guaranteed to permanently remove dandruff in two weeks, or your money back.

Parisian Sage stops falling hair— it prevents the hair from turning gray.

Parisian Sage is sold and rigidly guaranteed by V. L. Early and druggists everywhere. Price 50 cents a large bottle. 2

PERRY FINNEY DIES OF HEART FAILURE

Death Occurred Tuesday Morning About 9 O'Clock—Was Well Known Printer.

Perry Finney, age about 45 years, died suddenly and unexpectedly on Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. N. R. Spencer on North State street, where he has been since last Wednesday.

Mr. Finney was in the Reporter float in the commercial parade that was upset, and he sustained some bruises about the hips. He was taken to Mr. Spencer's home, where a physician has been waiting on him. He had been sick with stomach and bowel trouble, but seemed much improved, although his heart was weak, and his sudden death will probably be pronounced due to heart failure by the coroner when he gives his verdict.

Mr. Finney was born at Tipton, and learned the printer's trade in the newspaper offices of that city. His parents moved to Indianapolis later and Mr. Finney worked in the newspaper offices of that city. He had traveled about a great deal and worked in the offices at Pendleton, New Castle, Anderson, Cumberland and in this city for the D. H. Goble Company, W. S. Montgomery, and the Greenfield Printing and Publishing Company, before the consolidation of the papers, and also for the William Mitchell Printing Company.

For the past few months Mr. Finney has made his home with his cousin, W. H. H. Sager, on Route 8. He is also a cousin of Mrs. Michael Thompson, of this city. A mother, three brothers and a sister survive.

The body was taken to the undertaking establishment of Oak S. Morrison to be prepared for burial and until the coroner's inquest is held.

Loss of Time Means Loss of Pay. Kidney trouble and the ills it breeds means lost time and lost pay to many a working man. M. Balent, 1214 Little Penna. St., Streator, 111., was so bad from kidney and bladder trouble that he could not work, but he says: "I took Foley Kidney Pills for only a short time and got entirely well and was soon able to go back to work, and am feeling well and healthier than before." Foley Kidney Pills are tonic in action, quick in results—a good friend to the working man or woman who suffers from kidney ills. M. C. Quigley.

HE WONDERED WHY THE POTATOES DID NOT GROW.

New Citizen Was Careful to Remove All Eyes From Potatoes Before Planting—Discouraging Result

A Greenfield man, who has not been in this country very long, is wondering why he had no luck with his potatoes. When it came time to plant last spring, he went to a grocer to buy seed, and asked him how to plant them. The dealer told him just to cut the eyes out and plant them like anybody else would.

The amateur gardener misunderstood, however. He carefully cut every eye from the potatoes and threw them away and planted the potatoes deep. We watched hopefully for the signs of the growing plants, but none have ever appeared and it was only a few days ago that he related his experience to a friend and learned the cause of his failure.

FINAL TESTS ARE NOW BEING MADE

INFANTILE PARALYSIS INQUIRY IS NEARING AN END—EXPECT EXPERIMENTS TO SHOW

IT IS TRANSFERABLE

FROM ANIMALS TO CHILDREN

Results of State Board Experiments Being Anxiously Watched As Disease is Spreading and No Cure or

Remedy is Known as Yet—Shelby County Center of Work.

Preparations are being made by the State Board of Health to make a final investigation into the supposed connection between poliomyelitis (infantile paralysis) in animals and the same disease in human beings. Another of the group of hogs believed to be affected with the strange disease on the farm of Stephen Cherry, near this city, will be killed within the next few days. Health officials will take portions of the brain and spinal cord of the animal for cultures, says the Shelbyville Democrat.

Rabbits will then be used by the board as a subject for experimentation. The cultures will be injected into the animals and every stage in their lives from then on will be watched carefully. A chicken, being sent alive to the laboratories of the State Board from Monticello, will, it is believed, strengthen the supposition that infantile paralysis is directly traceable to the lower animals. This fowl, taken from the barnyard of a home in which one child has been stricken with the' dreaded disease, will be watched closely until its death and will be subjected to a series of tests immediately after it dies. The bird at present shows a tendency to droop, and its joints seem stiff and unwieldy.

Rabbits will be brought into experimental use as soon as cultures from the fowl are taken, according to Dr. W. F. King, assistant secretary of the State Board. If the disease can be shown by those two instances to be transferable to different animals one of the strongest links yet forged in the theory that there is connected between the affliction in animals and" human beings will have been completed.

In the case of Virgil Southern, the 14 year old boy in Montgomery county, who is reported to have the affliction, he was tending a group of hogs, owned by a man near Romney, before he was attacked by the disease. He is the eldest of the children reported to be suffering from "polio," in Indiana since" July 1st. The hogs, which he was hired to take care of, were believed to be suffering from cholera and several of them were burned at the order of the owner. The remainder will be watched closely and one of them may be used for experimental purposes by the State Board.

According to the report of Dr. J. Willard Parrish, of this city, the hogs under his supervision seem to be unable to walk long distances. They stop and sit up on their hind legs in a wabbly fashion, according to information which has reached Dr. King. One animal which died from the disease sat up on its hind legs just before death, then suddenly toppled over and was dead in a few moments.

GREENFIELD REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY. AUGUST 24, 1911

Names First Monday in September As Labor Day To Celebrate Accomplishments of Labor.

Governor Thomas R. Marshall has issued a proclamation setting aside Monday, September 4th, as "Labor Day," in Indiana. This day is usually observed over the United States as a day of celebration by labor organizations and in the larger cities big parades are held in which all labor organizations participate. The proclamation of the Governor is as follows: STATE OF INDIANA,

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT. By many men it has been taken to say: "This is mine." To most men comes the call, "I must," but it is the elect only who say, "I can." Happy they, who, whole of body and mind face the future undismayed by wrong and ignorance and pppression, with the calm assurance that the devices of the high and mighty are vain when they hope to build without a builder, and when they dream that beauty may be limned by the ashes of discontent. Wise is that people whose master builders recognize worth and deaL4ustly with their entered apprentices. Justice is never too perfect. An expression of our desire for it is always fitting. Words do not help much—but they hearten for the moment.

May Monday, September 4, 1911, which is by law Labor Day in Indiana, be given over to inspiring words in the cause of justice, and the untangling of the threads of passion, prejudice and cupidity, that out of them brotherhood may weave for us garments of peace and of righteousness.

In testimony where of, I have hereunto set my hand and caused to be affixed the great seal of the State of Indiana.

Done at the Capitol in the City of Indianapolis, this seventeenth day of August, A. D. 1911.

THOS. R. MARSHALL, Governor.

By the Governor, L. G. Ellingham, Sec. of State.

Hay Fever, Asthma, Summer Colds Must be relieved quickly, and Foley's Honey and Tar Compound will do it. E. M. Stewart, 1034 Wolfram St., Chicago, writes: "I have been greatly troubled during the hot summer months with hay fever and find that by using Foley's Honey and Tar Compound, I get great relief." Many others who suffer similarly will be glad to benefit by Mr. Stewart's experience. M. C. Quigley.

An Unusual Circumstance. The Marion Daily Chronicle contains the following article that will be of interest to Greenfield people: 'Uncle' John Studebaker, the old-time resident of Wells county, and the county's best known pioneer, Tuesday quietly celebrated his ninety-fourth birthday anniversary, at his home at Bluffton. On account of his advanced age the family avoids a demonstrative celebration that might not agree with him. 'Uncle John' last Sunday gave his annual birthday contribution to the Bluffton M. E. Sunday school, 94 cents this year. At the same time one of his great grandchildren, Mary Rhue, gave two pennies, celebrating her second anniversary, and Jane Rhue, another great grandchild, gave one penny, celebrating her first anniversary. The lit tie girls are daughters of Mr. and Mrs. John Rhue, of Marion, their mother formerly being Miss Mary Todd, of Bluffton."
