AMERICANS MAKE

TOTAL ANNIHILATION OF MANY THOUSANDS IN A SINGLE DAY. BATTLE AT THE NOON

HOUR FIERCE ONE.

The Americans made a fierce assault on Turkey today, many thousands of turks being massacred and beheaded within a few hours. The fiercest part of the assault came at the noon hour, when the attacking forces rallied to the battle cry and almost completely annihilated the opposing forces, going down to China in their determination to leave nothing but the whitening bones where once the proud and haughty enemy was intrenched.

There was a great army of Americans engaged in the conflict and not one had to be drafted. There was a small standing army and several of the home guard, but the great majority were volunteers and be it said to their credit that there was not a deserter reported in any company. This was one instance where the women of America were allowed to "bare" arms and engage in the conflict and they proved themselves to be great allies and while it was scarcely needed, their encouragement along the battle line made the attaoking forces more keen and determined. In fact, it seemed but a -few minutes from the time the fight was on that the breastworks of the enemy were completely razed and demolished While the greatest of the conflict is now -.over, there are still a few scattering remnants of the enemy which war will be waged upon until only the memory of them will linger, although the closing scenes will not be nearly so fierce as was the first awful onslaught. This engagement will no doubt keep the physician and nurses of the country busy for several days repairing shattered digestive systems and coaxing much abused stomachs into a willingness to perform their accustomed tasks again by quelling the rebllions that will rage for a few days.

REPORT SICK CALVES MARKET Me

The Report of Two Sick Calves at Wichita Caused Sacrifice of 20 to •40 Thousand Do..ars at KansasV x'h City Market This Week.'y'-*-

Kansas City Stock Tards, November 23, 1914.—Transactions in stockers and feeders here last week dropped to 13,000 head, but warning of the reduced outlet had its effect in a smaller supply, and nothing of moment was left over at the end of th6 week. Prices averaged steady all week after Monday, so nicely was the supply adjusted to the demand. Today the trade is upset again over a report that two sick calves at the Wichita yarc^s are suspected of having foot and mouth disease, and the yards there are closed to stotiker and feeder trade pending a decision as to the nature of the disease. This, of course, is suffiienct to alarm Kansas buyers, who have been the main support of the market here, and trading in stockers and feeders is at a standstill, although some bids 25c to 50c lower were made. Total cattle receipts today are 56,000 head, possibly one-third of which are suitable for the country, but salesmen are turning the fleshy feeders over to killers at 25c lower prices. The Wichita case is not believed to have any merit, but its effect today on the market here is enough to cause a sacrifice of twenty to forty thousand dollars on the stockers and feeders here. Of course, niinois and Iowa men have their hands tied, as far as taking advantage of the existing conditions go, but the whole trade is settling down into a period of "watchful waiting" that will not be ended till all the quarantines are' raised. In the meantime, those men who are forced to sell stockers and feeders will suffer, with no benefit to anyone where the cattle are sold to killers, and the price of corn is dropping, with some benefit, however, to thosefeeders in possession of live stock. Above the confusion in live stock circle stands out the fact, most important to feeders, that actual shortage of cattle and sheep on feed exists, with good prospects for prices during the winter, and a crop of hogs that, while enlarged, is not apt to result in any great cutting of prices.

C. F.HAHSELL DIES AS RESULT OF INJURY

GREENFIELD, REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1914

Hancock County Man's Auto Hit By a Street Car. Wife of Accident, Victim Is Sister of Mrs. "V

SSI

4 Fred Rose.

Mr. and Mrs. Fred Rose, of East North street, this city, were called to the C. E. Hansell home, west of Gem, at midnight Tuesday night by the death of Mr. Hansell as a result of an accident earlier in the evening at Irvington. Mrs. Rose and Mrs. Hansell are sisters. Samuel Kassen took Mr. and Mrs. Rose in his automobile.

The Morning Star gives an account of the fatal accident in part as follows: "C. E. Hansell, 38 years old, superintendent of the Esterline Company, 229 East South street, and Miss Sadie Boonster, 25 years old, rooming at 32 North Irvington avenue, a stenographer employed by the Esterline Company, were injured perhaps fatally early last night when a light touring car in which they were riding was struck by an inbound Irvington- car at Emerson avenue and East Washington street, and demolished. The automobile was thrown about sixty feet and the two occupants were pinned beneath it."

Mr. Hansell suffered a fractured lower jaw and a fracture at the base of the brain. Miss Boonster was rendered unconscious, but there were no outward evidences of serious injuries.

The automobile was southbound on Emerson avenue, and apparently Mr. Qansell, the driver, was attempting to turn east on to Washington street, heading for his home on the National road near Cumberland. The light automobile was torn to pieces by the collision. Several young men, Students of Butler College, heard the crash from the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity House and rushed to the assistance of the insensible man and woman. The students pulled the wrecked automobile off the victims and placed them in a machine driven by Earl W. Kiger, 99 North Irvington avenue, in which they were taken to the city hospital.

Mrs. Hansell was summoned to the hospital from her home in this county. The widow and five children survive Mr. Hansell. They live on the John Green place, west of Gem.

A STITCHIN TIME

Greenfield People Should Not Negleet Their Kidneys.

Emery Matillo. of Indianapolis, is tire Don't overlook the filightesfc backa a ache or,urinary irregularity. Nature may be warning you of approaching dropsy, gravel or Bright's dieeaee.

No kidney ailment is unimportant.

Kidney disease is seldom fatal if treated in time, but neglect may pave the way. Dou't neglect a lame or aching back another day. Don't ignore dizzy spells, irregular or di8colored urine, headaches, weariness or depression. If you feel you need kiddey help bein using the reliable, time-tried rt edy, Doan's Kidney Pills. For 60 years Doan's have been found effective. Endorsed by grateful people.

Perry Lynn, 512 S. Pennsylvania St., Indianopolis, Ind., says: "Kidney complaint caused me much annoyance. Pains over my kidneys bothered me for along time. I final heard of Doan's Kidney Pilis and began ut»ing them. In a few weeks my kidneys were normal and the aches and pains left."

Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney, remedy—get Doan's Pills—the same that Mr. Lynn had. Poster-Milburn Co.. Props Buffalo, N. Y, (AdvertUement.) i'Viv-V

CATTLE HEALTHY II HANCOCK COUNTY

cv ^*6 h'I" „L 'J No Signs vof the Hoof and Houth

Disease. Three Gar Loads Quasantined Here.

Dr. C. P. Wilson, Hancock county deputy veterinarian, appointed by the state veterinarian to help control the hoof and mouth disease, reports that this county is free from the .disease. There are three car loads of cattle quarantined in the county, however, that were shipped to this county from the Chicago stock yards after October 15.th. One car load is at the Roberts farm, near Maxwell, and two are at the Martindale farm, at Willow Branch. AU cattle shipped from the Chicago stock yards after October 15th are subject to inspection and quarantine.

Mr. Wilson is keeping a close watch on all the herds over the county to find the first sign of the appearance of the disease. According to the state papers, it is held that the hoof and mouth disease was spread largely by means of the serum made at Chicago and sent out all over the country for use for vaccinating purposes.

Mrs. Mary Morgan, of North State street, is quite seriously sick. Dr. Justice was called to see her at 2 o'clock Thursday nighit. Mrs. Morgan is one of Greenfield's oldest citizens. She in her 83rd year. She is the widow of the late James Morgan.

M. L. Frank, of Green township, is seriously sick. He is affected with a strange malady. He does not suffer any, but he is covered with sores all over his body, even the top of his head. He is one of the best known farmers of Hancock county.

Miss Lolah Tull, who has been spending two months at Kirksville, Missouri, is expected home in a few days.

Horace E. Wilson, the county clerk-elect, has been spending a few days in the office with Moses Wood, getting on to some of the many duties of the office.
