MASKED

I FIRES FOUR SHOTS AT EATON HERMIT Colored Man Shoots Through Window as Charles Brasier Sits Reading Wounded Man Lives at Hospital. EATON, O., Nov. 30. Alone in his one-room hut in Public Lane, Charles Brasier, 62, was assailed about 6:45 o'clock Sunday night and shot four times by a masked negro. One shot struck a finger of his right hand, another grazed his stomach, and two were embedded in the abdomen. The wounded man was rushed to Reid Memorial hospital, Richmond, Ind., where an operation was performed in an endeavor to save his life. Brasier was seated on the side of his bed reading a paper when the door was opened by the assailant, who demanded "Your money or your life." In his hand he clutched a big revolver. Brasier was inclined to believe some one was joking with him, and asked in a kindly voice that the gun be pointed in another direction. Without speaking, the intruder lired. Brasier threw up his right hand The bullet struck the middle finger. He quickly arose from the bed and succeeded in ejecting the negro. He locked the door and again took up his reading. Fires Through Window. Only a few minutes had passed when the glass in a window in the south side of the house was smashed and a hand clutching a revolver was thrust through the window. Three more shots were fired through a flimsy material which curtined the window. One of these merely grazed the stomach and brought a little blood. Another struck low in the abdomen on the left side. It could not be ascertained last night whether the third shot fired went entirely through the stomach and emerged on the right side, or whether the fourth bullet took effect in that side. The assailant made no attempt to reenter the house or take any money found on the wounded man. He ran south through the muddy field, and is believed to have boarded a southbound Pennsylvania ireight train, which had just pulled out of a siding. His tracks were plainly visible in the iitml. Braisier Calls Help. Realizing his condition. Brasier went outside the house and called loudly for l.f Ip. Joint Ernst and a couple other men who were in the storage house of the Ernst Nurseries responded. According to his relatives, Brasier li.nl lnMi working steadily and saving bis money, and the theory is advanced that perhaps some one who knew he h;nl quite a sunt of money in his clothes was responsible for the shooting. Thi' would-be murderer was described as a man nearly rix feet tall and well proportioned. His face was covered with a white handkerchief. He v ore an overcoat. A negro partly answering the description fciven has been si en around Eaton during the last few days, and is now being sought. State Briefs in Few Lines !- FA YETTE -"Bessie" a blooded Holstcin hoifer, lay feet upward in the pasture on Sam Shearer's farm, west of Purdue University. She was hiocoughing like a balky sute motor. Three others were stretched out in lifeless attitudes. On all sides were sleepy-eyed bovines in various poses. "Hoof and Mouth disease," shouted Fanner Shearer; "Send for a veterinarian, quick!" Investigation developed the fact that the herd had feasted on the contents of a cider press filled with apple pulp. They had actually become intoxicated in a temperance town. NEW CASTLE That staunch Democrat war horse, Douglas Bolser, who but a week ago had accepted an appointment as auto license clerk sustained a jolt while eating his Thanksgiving dinner, when Secretarv of State Homer L. Cook telephoned him to cancel the appointment. Bolser recovered a moment later when Cook directed him to report to Dale Crittenberger of Anderson, auditor of state, for a job that pays $.",00 per annum more than the license clerk gets. WKSTFIKLD--A five mile ride on a donkey was the penalty enjoyed by Prof. John Osborn, teacher of science nnd mathematics, when he returned from Whitestown where he was "secretly" married to Miss Bonnie McKinney.

DISCREDITS LODGE'S TALK WITH THE DEAD i DR. JOHN D. QUACKENBOS.

Quaekenbos, former Columbia professor and noted investigator of physical subjects. Dr. Quackenbos, who is a member of the organization of which Sir Oliver Lodge is-president, the Society for Physical Research, said that he w;s hardly willing to accept the truth of the claim on one unsupported statement. Appetite Follows Good Digestion Nearly every one indulges their appetite and the digestive organs are abused, resulting in a congestion of poisonous waste that clogs the bowels and causes much misery and distess. The most effective remedy to correct this condition is the combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. This is a natural pleasant tasting remedy, gentle yet positive in action, and quickly relieves indigestion, constipation, sick headache , belching. etc. Drug stores sell Dr. Caldwell's Syrun Pepsin at fifty cents and one dollar a bottle, and in thousands of homes it is the indispensible family remedy. For a free trial bottle write Dr. W. B. Caldwell. 451 Washington St., Monticello, 111.

Most persona neglect a cough or cold for the principal reason that they either don't think It serious enough to go to a doctor, or don't know what good medicine to buy at a drug store, with the result that the cough or cold becomes deepseated through this neglect and hangs on the whole winter which might have otherwise been speedily cured, had Schiffmann's Concentrated Expectorant been used promptly. This new remedy Is so strongly concentrated that two ounces (50 cents worth) make a full pint (16 ozs.) of excellent cough medicine, by simple mixing it at home with one pint of granulated sugar and i pint of water. It makes a whole family supply, as much as would ordinarily cost from $2.00 to $3.00 for the same quantity of the old, ordinary, ready-mad kinds of doubtful merit. It Is prepared from strictly harmless plants and is so pleasant that children like to take it and it can be given them with perfect safety as it positively contains no chloroform, opium, morphine, or other narcotics, as do most cough mixtures.
