ANTI-TOXIN FOR THE POOR

Blank forms calling for anti-toxin have been placed in the hands of the township trustees and health officers. When a physician needs anti-toxin and the family is / not able to buy it he obtains one of these blank forms from the trustee or health officer and fills It out and presents It to a druggist. The statement made by the physician on the blank form is in effect a claim against the town, city or county. The druggist retains this statement and presents it for payment. If the patient supplied with anti-toxin lives outside a town or city the claim Is paid by the county.

DANBURY, Conn., Nov. 1C—Prof. I,ueien Marcus Underwood, professor of botany at Columbia University, identified with the Bronx Botanical Gardens and connected with DePauw University 1X91-5, committed suicide this afternoon by cutting his throat at his country home at Redding. Prof. Utinderwood had gone insane suddenly and attempted to kill his wife and daughter, Helen. According to Mrs. Underwood, her husband had worried over losses in Wall treet during the recent slump. He lost $15,000 and was afraid, it was said, that his home might have to he sacrificed. > Mrs. Underwood was in (he kitchen of her home when her husband rushed to her side. He had a peculiar glare in his eyes and seized a potato knife and tried to cut her throat. Mrs. Underwood screamed, meanwhile defending herself as best she could. Her cries attracted her daughter Helen, who rushed to the kitchen just In time to see her father draw the knife across Mrs. Underwood's throat from ear to ear, making a wound not deep enough to penetrate the jugular vein. Miss Underwood looked on in horror until her father saw her. He let go of his wife and jumped toward the daughter, with the knife raised to gash her as he had her mother. When Mrs. Underwood saw her daughter's peril she ran to aid her, and in struggling with her husband she had the little finger of her right hand cut off. After trying vainly to overpower his daughter Prof. Underwood threw the knife from him and ran to the second floor of the house. His wife and daughter heard him slam the door of the bathroom, in which he kept his razor, and presuming that he meant to use it against them, or cut his own throat, the two women fled in terror from the house and went to the home of a neighbor. After the alarm had been given by Mrs. Underwood several of the neighbors hurried to the Underwood house. They found the botanist lying on the bathroom floor with a great gash in his throat. He died twenty minutes after he was found. —Indianapolis Star.

Prof. Underwood was at DePauw from '91 to '95. He was very popular as an instructor, his students being unusually loyal to him. It was under Prof. Underwood that a number of successful DePauw Scientists j had their training. Owing the flnanI rial stringency and a misunder- | standing with the board of Trustees j he left DePauw in 1905 and soon i secured a position in Columbia, where he had remained ever since. I lis reputation had continually broadened. and he was looked upon as one t of the leading scientists of America.

Edward Haunemann, formerly of Greencastle but for the past two years of Indianapolis, died in that city at half past twelve o'clock on Sunday. The cause of death was dropsy. Mr. Hannemanu's remains were brought to this city on the 12:45 itrain on Tuesday. They were taken at once to t he home of Chas. H. Michels. The funeral was held at the Michels’ home on Wednesda at 2 o’clock. Edward Hannemann was seventytwo years old at the time of his death. For nearly forty-nine years of this time he had been a resident and business man in Greencastle. | He was the builder of the present opera house In 1875, and for many years conducted a grocery and bakery in one of the rooms now used by Mr. Lynch. He moved to Indianapolis about two years ago, I and had since made that place his

J residence.

The editor of Tho Republican was in Greencastle last Saturday and enjoyed the day splendidly seeing the merchants of Greencastle busy with the trade and the farmers of the county of Putnam keeping them busy to supply their wants. The streets about the public square were well filled and no sign of county hitch rack on the square to create difference of opinion as to the wisdom of maintaining that institution there. The handsome new court house for Putnam county is a substantial and beautiful building. It is well kept, as it deserves to be, and the people respect the beauty, neatness and cleanliness that is intended to be maintained. One sees no unsanitary corner in that beautiful building. The people of Greencastle and Putnam county are prone to regard the people of Morgan county as good neighbors and seemed pleased to have visitors from their neighboring county. Their greetings are cordial and their pleasure seems sincere. Their interest is shown in pointed inquiry about conditions in Morgan county and Martinsville and they were pleased with the remark made by the commercial traveler who said: ‘‘Martinsville and Greencastle are the two attractive spots in Indiana, because their banks pay checks in full for all local business." Edgar Pike, one of our county councilmen, was in Greencastle that day making purchases and his presence suggested the benefit to Greencastle of splendid rock roads leading out of Morgan county to the county seat of Putnam county, instead of leading to the county seat of Morgan county. Morgan county should see to it that every good road in the west part of this county is conected with Martinsville by the very best road that can be built. The people in the west part of Morgan deserve this provision and would be glad of it, because they would prefer to transact all of their business at Martinsville Instead of dividing It between the two county seats.—Martinsville Reporter.

R. F. Hughes, and old and respected resident of Greencastle, died Monday morning ateight o’clock, of a complication of diseases, at his late home on north Indiana street.

Surviving the deceased are a * widow, three children and one grand- I child. The funeral was held Wednes- 1 day morning, at 10:30 o’clock. The Knights of Pythias took charge of the services, Dr. Hoagland officiating. Budial was at Forest Hill cemetery.

Mr. Rawley was offered $800 for the land used by the company, but thought this too little, hence the trial. The other two cases are by Edward Smith and Otto Trappier against Alexander Jones et al.
