FRENCH AND GEH TO BATTLE FOR FLEURY

STATE COMMISSIONERS INSPECT C & 0 BRIDGES REPORTED AS DANGEROUS

Members of the state utilities commission are in the city today investigating the conditions at C. & O. crossing, northwest of the city along the Union pike, several hundred feet east of the place where the C. & O. tracks go under the G. R. & I. tracks. Petition was recently presented to the commission by Charles Huffman, a farmer living near the crossing in which he complained of the danger incident to this crossing. Henry C. Starr and John F. Robbins, of Indianapolis, attorneys for the C. & O. railroad, went over the ground with the state commissioners this afternoon. Mr. Huffman recently appeared before the county commissioners and asked that some arrangement be made to relieve the dangerous situation here. The crossing is on a wide curve of the railroad which makes it impossible to see an approaching train for more than 500 feet. Steep grades lead to the crossing from both sides in Letter List The following letters remain unclaimed at the local post office and will be sent to the dead letter office if not called for within two weeks: Women.Mrs. Lou Booker, Mrs. Wm.

HELP LAKE SIDE REST; FURNITURE IS NEEDED

The Social Development club, which' has its headquarters at Lake Side Rest now has thirty-six members, Mrs. Fred H. Stimmerfruit, director of the organization, said today. Although only two of the members are making the Lake Side Rest their home, the other girls spend much time there enjoying the various games and the freedom of the resort. Next Sunday afternoon the club will hold a social afternoon at the headquarters. In the evening a basket supper will be .served. The girls are to bring their own lunches, but

positions time after time despite the tremendous losses resulting from the concentrated artillery and machine gun fire of the French. To the northwest of Fleury the French have assumed a vigorous offensive, the communique states. Between Hills No. 320 and 321 the Germans were driven back last night, All night fighting raged between Funmin and Chencis woods where the Germans were finally driven from the the trenches they had won from the French forty-eight hours earlier.

creasing the danger of traffic. The commissioners informed Mr. Huffman that it was beyond the jurisdiction of the county to make a change and advised him to take the matter up with the state commission. Farmers living in this vicinity believe that an overhead crossing should be arranged here and have recommended to the state commission that a viaduct be built to take the road over the tracks. The cost is estimated at $20,000. According to County Attorney Hoelscher, the railroad company would be required to pay for three-fourths of the cost and the county for one-fourth. Several serious accidents were narrowly averted last winter, Mr. Huffman said, and he considers the crossing the most dangerous one in the county. A bell signal was installed several years ago, but has proven unsatisfactory, especially in winter when the snow and sleet interfere with its operation.

HOOVER TO PROBE HEALTH CONDITIONS AT CAMBRIDGE CITY

CAMBRIDGE CITY. June 24. Rudolph Hoover .was named to Investigate health conditions in and around Cambridge City at the meeting of citizens held in the public library last night , No definite steps were taken towards the formation of an anti-tuberculosis society but another meeting will be held for that purpose in the near future. Dr. F. L. Kruger, Richmond, was unable to attend the meeting and so the address was given by Dr. H. B. Boyd. Dr. Boyd said that whether or not people inherited tuberculosis every one has tuberculosis bacilli. The progress of the germs depends on the person's power of resistance. He said that conditions around Cambridge City were not the worst in the county as might be judged from the health reports, the only thing is that people from the town report the true conditions to the health t officer in true accordance with the law, while in other places they are not so punctual.
