John Dow ling, Barber, is Badly Bruised and Face Cut on Brick Pavement.

John Dowling, a young barber employed at James Walton's shop, was painfully cut and bruised on Thursday night when he attempted to alight from a moving T. H. I. & E. west-bound car at School street. He boarded the car at the station to ride to Pennsylvania street, but the car did not stop there, and as the car slowed up at School street he started to jump from the steps, but his foot caught and he was thrown to the pavement, striking his head and face. A gash was cut over his left eye and the left side of his face was bruised and skinned, but no bones were broken. He went to Dr. Heller's office where his injuries were dressed and he was at his ,work again today.

AUTOMOBILE MADE OVER INTO ALTO AMBULANCE

Hiram Eshelman has a new ambulance, casket, or pleasure wagon made from his Ford automobile by the Knightstown Buggy Company. Mr. Eshelman planned out what he wanted, but for some time was unsuccessful in getting any manufacturer to tackle the job of putting his plans into effect, as they said it could not be done successfully. It was accomplished, however, arid he has a very handy, compact automobile ambulance, casket wagon, or a pleasure automobile, by making a few changes in the interior of the automobile. The machine was finished and delivered to Mr. Eshelman Tuesday.

The law governing him in this matter is in part as follows:

Provided— Pulmonary consumption and typhoid fever shall not be quarantined, as they are to be reported for record only, and chickenpox and whooping-cough shall be carded' to warn the public, absolute quarantine not be required.

Rule 6. All cases of infectious and contagious diseases which are listed in Rule 10, shall be immediately reported on the official blankto the health officer having jurisdiction by the physician, if any be in attendance, otherwise by the householder or attendant. The health officer receiving said report shall immediately enter the same in his infectious disease record book, and in person or by deputy,* establish quarantine. All city and town health officers shall preserve the original infectious disease certificates they may receive, and send the same to their County Health Commissioner by the 2d of each month for the month preceding and said County Health Commissioner shall use the same for making up his special report.

Penalty for Violating Quarantine: "A fine of ten to fifty dollars, to which may be added imprisonment in the county jail not exceeding six months."

Robinson, of Greenfield, Ind., the famous lecturer, writer and orator. He is known all over the United States as one of the most accomplished in the sunlight of speakers in the order, and his lee-' tures on Red Manship are recognized from coast to coast as masterpieces. As a writer, Dr. Robinson has proven himself to be equal to the beat, and his articles are read with pleasure. As an ardent worker in the Improved Order of Red Men he has no superior, and is constantly sought for addresses by all the tribes in the state."

Rule' 10. Infectious Diseases—The infectious and contagious diseases which shall be immediately reported to the health officer having jurisdiction and which shall be quarantined are hereby declared to be: yellow fever, smallpox, cholera, diphtheria, membraneous croup, scarlet fever, bubonic plague, leprosy, puljnonary consumption, typhoid fever, chickenpox, whooping cough and poliomyelitis.

Margaret E., daughter of Thomas and Mary Draper, was born in Virginia, June 16, 1830, and departed thiis life, March 31, 1914, age 83 years, months and 15 days.

Her early life was spent in meeting and conquering the difficulties usual in those early pioneer days. She came to Indiana and on April 9, 1845, was united in marriage to Charles Burton. To this union were born eight children. The husband

ceded the mother to her celestial home. Fpur children still remain to mingle their tears in memory of the dearest friend that God can

give. The surviving children are Mary Cook, of Zionsville Emma Newsom, of Carthage Joseph Burton, of Indianapolis, and George, who has remained with his mother during her declining years, and has watched and cared f£r her tenderly.

Of a family of nine, she has but one brother left, Joseph E. Draper, of Madison county. Besides these, she leaves six living grandchildren and nine great grandchildren some of whose mothers have long been at rest and who received tender and motherly care from dear old grandma, who supplied their every need with that patient and tender care that comes only from a loving heart.

At the early age of 32 her husband died, leaving her alone in the battle to keep the wolf from the door and raise the children. In this heroic task her brave heart never faltered. Not once did her indomitable will wfver, although she lived just one day over fifty-one years after her husband died. She fought a good fight and came out more than conquerer. By the help of Him who has never lost a battle, she has kept the faith and is now wearing the crown that is laid up for those who do their best. She kept them all together and as their tears fall on her dear old face, and as they look at the listless hands tli'at have so often been busy in their behalf, they realize as never before that blessed indeed is mother. ....

She was a birthright member of the Friends church, and while not active in the work of the church was ever trying by precept and example, to lead the life of the lowly Nazarene.

The beauty of her life is shown by her love of flowery and children and by her host of friends and the loving regard of her neighbors. There's many a child, long since grown to manhood or womanhood, who remembers Grandma's flowers, and how she always plucked the choicest ones for them, and never a child visited a neighbor but wanted to ?o to "Grandma's house." She always loved to read the Bible and other religious books and papers. During her last illness, when she could no longer read for herself, she would often have the Bible read to her, and derived great comfort from the precious words. Several times while in intense suffering, she would exclaim, "Peace! Peace! Peace!"

And now Grandma knows the full meaning of that word, such as mortals can not know, and is basking

God's eternal

love. She is done with the toil and tribulations of this life forever. One of her favorite quotations was "Watchman, what of the night?"

'When the cold hand of death is laid Upon the friends we love so dear, When the joys of earth begin to fade,

And the end of life draws near When our weary soul takes its flight,

Watchman, what of the night?

When the watchman gives the warning,

And the end is drawing near, Be it midnight, eve or morning, May we have nothing then to fear

When our spirit takes its flight. Watchman, what of the night?

Watchman, what of the night? Does the morning light appear? The watchman cried, Take Christ as your light,

And then you will have no fear.' Are we walking in that light? Watchman, what of the night?"
