SEVEN DEATHS IN STATE LAID TO COLD WAVE Suffering of Thousands of Needy Families Is Increased. Seven deaths and many accidents throughout the state in the last few days have been attributed, directly and indirectly, to the unseasonable cold wave which has gripped the state the last two and a half days. BufTering of thousands of needy families was increased by the cold weather. Death of William T Rawlings. 80, of near Jeffersonville, was attributed to exposure and cold. He succumbed yesterday at a Jeffersonville hospital after officials found him ill in an unheated farmhouse. An overheated stove was blamed for the death of Alex Clinard, 61, Evansville, who was burned to death when fire destroyed his home yesterday. The weather was blamed also in the deaths of three Lebanon men employed by a long-distance hauling company, all asphyxiated while seeking shelter from the cold; death of a Porter county man as a result of exposure, and of a Connersville motorist injured fatally when his car skidded on the ice. Two Anderson women sustained broken bones when they slipped on ice yesterday.

Indiana in Brief Lively Spots in the State’s Happenings Put Together ‘Short and Sweet.’

By Times Special EVANSVILLE, Ind., Nov. 17.—The unique profession of finishing bungled work by burglars occupies F. B. Thorbecke and his son, safe experts here. The two men, Frank 8., 66, and his son, Edward, conduct a business established seventy-five years ago by their father and grandfather, Joseph Thorbecke. Most of the firm’s work is done in emergencies—usually on a call to open a safe after the lock has been jammed in an unsuccessful burglary attempt. Danger Invades their somewhat peaceful calling when they are retained to open a safe into which burglars have poured nitroglycerine and then abandoned blasting attempts. Care must be taken not to jar the safe door in removing it, to prevent an explosion. Frequently they are able to complete the work in an hour, but on one job during the national banking holiday last March the elder Thorbecke worked twenty-two hours to open a safe that contained $20,000 in cash. Burglars had knocked the combination off the safe, jammed the door, but failed to get at the funds. Monday is the busiest day for the safe experts. They believe this is because burglars arrange their robbery attempts during the week-end so they will have plenty of time.

a a o Damage Suit Filed By Timet Special TIPTON, Nov. 17.—Suit for $20,000 damages alleging alienation of the affections of William H. Staples, in which his wife, Mrs. Norma G. Staples, is plaintiff, and Vesta Belmeda Gee is defendant, will be tried in Tipton circuit court here on a change of venue from Hamilton county. The Staples were married twen-ty-four years ago and have two children, a son, 22, and a daughter, 10. Mrs. Staples charges her husband maintained a home for the defendant in Sidney, 0., gave her a diamond ring, an automobile and large sums of money. BUB Beer Curb Studied By Timex Special NEWCASTLE. Nov. 17.—Drastic ordinance regulating beer selling places is being considered by the city council here. The measure would prohibit high backed booths or any other obstruction to full view; forbids minors to enter beer places, bans gambling and extends police jurisdiction to four miles beyond the city limits. The reason driving makes people tired is that human beings expend more energy through the visual sense than through all others.

B B B Negro Given Liberty By Times Special COLUMBUS, Nov. 17.—After being in jail a week, William Hall, 21, Negro, whom officials admit was convicted of assault on insufficient evidence, has been released and is on his way to his home in Mobile, Ala. Following his arrest on a report that he had chased a small girl who was on her way to school, police are said to have expressed hints of mob violence when Hall protested his innocence of any intention to harm the child. Convicted in city court by Mayor H. Karl Volland, the Negro was fined SSO, which he was unable to pay, and was remanded to jail. Counsel for Hall was preparing an appeal to the Bartholomew circuit court when Lloyd C. Bryer filed the dismissal motion, declaring conviction was on insufficient evidence. It was disclosed that Hall did not touch the child and was not near her at any time. The Negro said he was begging food and heard the sound of a train whistle. He began running in the hope of catching a ride out of the city on the train.

Why the Sudden Change to Liquid Laxatives?

Doctors have always recognized the value of the laxative whose dose can be measured, and whose action can be controlled. The public, too, is fast returning to the use of liquid laxatives. People have learned that a properly prepared liquid laxative brings a perfect movement without any discomfort at the time, or after. The dose of a liquid laxative can be varied to suit tne needs of the individual. The action can thus be regulated. It forms no habit; you need not take a “double dose” a day or two later. Nor will a mild liquid laxative irritate the kidneys. The wrong cathartic may keep you constipated as long as you keep on using it. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is a prescription, and is perfectly safe. its laxative action is based on senna —a natural laxative. The bowels will not become dependent on this form of help. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is at all druggists. Member N. R. A.
