This is the decision to abolish the hammer throw, on the grounds that it is dangerous. The action comes as a result of numerous accidents connected with this event, at least one of which in this state has proven fatal. Rev. A. L. Clarke, who for a number of years was a member of. the Methodist conference of this district and who has held charges at Wolcott and Monon, will fill the pulpit tomorrow at the First Baptist churoh of this city, he having left the conference of the M. E. church the past year. He now owns the Morocco telephone business, which he thinks is going to develope into a first-class paying investment. He formerly owned the Monon exchange. -T* Mr. and Mrs. Frank P. Morton, of Goodland'/ formerly of this county, were very much alarmed the first of the week when their little son was bitten on the cheek by a dog. The dog was killed and the head of the animal sent to Indianapolis for analysis by the state board of health. The preliminary analysis did not show any signs of hydrophobia, but Mr. Morton was informed that serum from the dog had been injected into a guinea pig and it Would be definitely known within a few days whether or not there was any occasion for alarm. 1 *"" r 1 . Mail Carrier J. B. Grieser, who has the contract under Comrade Fox for carrying the mail, has had a firstclass wagon fixed up for himself and no longer exposes the mail to the weather nor takes any chances of exposure himself. The wagon ia covered and just about the right size for the requirements of the mall hauling. Thia job ia worth about $75 per month, as the carrier is kept busy from the early morning trains until after the last mail is taken to the station at eight o’clock at night, but it was bid in for S2OO a year and Mr. Grieser gets only sls a month. Many people are not aware of the close shave the earth bad of not being populated. It’s not known how the story leaked out, but it looks quite reasonable and ia good enough to-be-lieve. It was many, many years ago that Adam and Eve met in the garden where apples grew as well as vegetables, and it was there that Eve handed Adam an apple. He looked it over and finally said to her/’ none of those for me old girl,” and when Eve prayed for his reason he said it looked to him like a Ben Davis, and it took her a long time to convince Adam ft was a Northern Spy,' and but for Eve’s argument and coaxing this story could never have been told.
