proved notes. This is the chance for anyone wanting anything in this line. The Citizens’ State Bank has just been provided with a new burglarproof, time-lock safe, of a pattern which has never yet been opened by a burglar. Its most notable feature

is its huge circulcr door, which after swinging into position on its hinges, is screwed into position by turning a large steel crank, much as the breech piece is screwed into one of Uncle Sam ’8 big modern cannons. The safe cost 41,000 and is one of 13 of the same pattern owned by the Dwiggina syndicate. Another new improvement in the bank is a set of safety deposit boxes, which are rented to customers at a merely nominal rent, for the safe keeping of valuable papers, Ac.

A terrible murder was committed near San Pierre, in Starke Cp., last Friday evening. An old German named Nicholas Gerharte had quarrelled with his wife and she had gone to the house of a married daughter, and a step-daughter of the old jnan, Mrs, Charles Kersting. The old man followed her there and a big row resulted, and which terminated by the okl woman knocking the old man down with an ax, and the Two. women then ,dragged him out doors and the old woman held him down while her daughter stabbed him to death with a butcher knife.

He f was cut and stabbed in over 50 places, and mangled beyond belief. An after incident following the murder showed the very thrifty spirit of the husband of the Kersting woman. At tfae inqaest bfr not let the coroner have a piece of board upon which to lay the corpse, until the coroner paid him 20 cents, therefor. The women are in tail at Knox. Since the above was in type, a further and fuller account has been received from our Dunnville correspondent, which will be found in its proper place.

County Board of Education.

The County Board of Education met in the office of the County Superintendent, Sept. Ist,-at 3p. m. The members of the Board were all present excepting Wm. 0. Roadifer, of Carpenter tp. and J. E. Stiller of the Remington School Board. The Board adopted Baker & Thornton’s School Register for the ensuing year, and the County Superintendent was directed to notify them of the fact.

It was decided to observe Colum bus day in the schools of the county and to carry out as far as possible the program of exercises prepared for the schools of the entire nation. It was further ordered that the schools of each township meet at some central place in the township and there hold general exercises, to be under the supervision of the trustee and teachers of the township. The proposition of the Wabash School furnitnre Company to furnish school furniture for the schools of county was accepted and all the trustees directed to make their orders through E. L Clark, purchasing agent of the Board. The County Superintendent was ordered to procure the necessary paper and covers for the preparation of work for the World’s Fair Exhibit, at the expense of the trustees.

HIGHWAYS.

Editor Republican : The time of year is at hand for supervisors to put forth their efforts in improving our read beds. I think a few hints fronttime to time may he of some put in practice. There is some good work done in some districts and some that is of no good whatever. This thing of hauling dirt and sand from a distance to make grades or fills, in a road bed has cost thousands of dollars, unnecessarily. If the dirt, say of the Givens hill, for instance, north of Rensselaer 2 I miles, is hard in dry time, it don’t stay So when wet, as all travelers can attest. It makes the worst road possible, of any other soil on top. Likely a worse and mOre sticky substance could be found by removing the muck in some of those marshes, and getting the blue clay. Perhaps it would be surest to apply such stuff j and try if the roads could not be made entirely impassable. Our roads having the principal travel are going in that direction more and more every year.

All grades should be raised directly from the road side, opposite the grade, and stop this hauling of hard dirt, when dry, and when wet, the most tough, taffy like substance known toman. Why it is such stuff is applied I can’t see, unless it is to make teams stick and men, women and children weep. I will yet state; make your grades as above directed and , when leveled in good form, if you ’ haul gravel 2 or three miles it will do

good, if applied" 18 in. deep in center and 12 in, at each side. Do not make your fill in those chuck holes with gravel that i» miate. Do your filling with scrapers; and don’t go to hauling dry stuff. JJjul GRAVEL; don’t forget this please. Barkley Tp.

State Board of Health Circular.

Indianapolis, Sept. 3, 1892. To Health Gfeicers: In view of trie rapra sprgwi nntnw 1 Europe, within the last sixty days, this Board feels" tb.at‘ there is great danger that it will invade our'Ctqmtry, and-eompfehending the destruction of human life that would ensue, recognize the necessity of placing the State in such a sanitary condition, that if it comes it will find no soil in in' our borders to propagate its germs. It is Therefore Ordered That All Boards of Health Observe The Following.

1. Make a thorough sanitary inspection of their respective jurisdictions. . 2. See that all accumulations of filth, decaying animal and vegetable matter on roads, streets, alleys, door yards, and vacant lots are removed. 3. That all gutters and drains afe’ kept open and clean, and that they are frequently flushed and disinfected wherever practical. 4. That all privy vaults, sinks, cesspools, foul cisterns, stagnent pounds, hog pefis, foul stables, unwholesome cellars, manure piles, dirty yards or lots, foul sewers, and all other places suspected of being injurious to the public health, are thoroughly cleaned, disinfected and purified. 5. That all rank vegitation along streets, sidewalks and gutters of cities and towns is cut and destroyed and not left to rot. 6 ; Attention is called to the importance of compelling the proprietors of steamboats and those in control of railway property, owners of hotels and boarding houses, school officials, sheriffs, city councils, town trustees, and others in control of property to thoroughly clean and disinfect their premises, and prepare suitable water closets for their patrons, tenants and scholars, and frequently disinfect them.

7. Attention is called to the necessity of making frequent inspections jit all vegetables and other articles of fqod offered for sale. Tainted vegetables and fruits are frequently sources of disease. 8. The carcass of any dead animal or the offal from slaughter houses putrid animal substances, or the contents of privy vaults, must not be placed upon public grounds, market place, common, field, lot, road, street or alley; or into any river, stream or lake.

There should be thorough whitewashing, drying, ventilation and disinfecting of all parts of habitations by the citizens of the State. The water supply should receive specia attention, and be carefully protected from pollution by seepage from foul places and surface washings. Water being the readiest medium through which cholera and typhoid fever spread, the absolute necessity of sacredly protecting it from contamination is apparent. You are directed to promulgate and enforce the foregoing, and to prosecute any one who may resist the execution of your orders. By order of the Board, ’ C. N. Metcalf,- — John NTTaylor, Sec’y. President. YictorE. Loughridgk, Sec’y. Jasper Co. Board of Health.
