NOW SUES THE MGNON

Woman Visited by Stork on a Motion Train No tv Contemplates Askiiij; Itamages.

SAYS TRAIN SHOULD RETURN

The limit in damage suits, it ■would seem will have been reached If. as it is said now to be contemplated, the husband of the woman who last May gave birth to a son on a Monon passenger train between Bedford and Mitchell, shall bring suit against the company for damages to his wife’s health. The suit has not yet been brought, and it may not be, but according to a rumor that has reached Bedford, he Is thinking seriously of doing so. It is said that the man bases his claim to damages on the fact that Conductor Condon refused to run the train back to Bedford when it was known that the woman was to be confined, and that as a result of the excitement attending her confinement on the train her health has been permanently injured. The child is a fine healthy boy. It is said, in behalf of Capt. Condon and the railroad company, that after Capt. Condon knew what was going to happen there would not have been time to flag back to Bedford before the child arrived, had he deemed it advisable to make the attempt, knowing that the wrecking train was on the way from Bloomington,—Bedford Democrat.

GREETi OePAUWS NEW CHIE

CAT CARRIED SMALLPOX GERMS

Health Officer l{ep«>rt>. Most Fnusual Transition of Diseases Through a Fat—It Had Been Hriven Away From Quarantined House.

Dr. W. J. Hoadley, of Danville, Health Officer of Hendricks County, has reported a case of small pox to Dr. J. X. Hurty, secretary of the State Board of Health, which he says can be traced directly to a neighborhood cat, and which is said to be the first case of smallpox in Indiana in which a cat is known to have a part. The case in question is at Clayton. Dr. Hoadley says that some two or three weeks ago, Miss Anna White, after a visit with an aunt at Indianapolis, returned to her home in Clayton and shortly afterwards developed a case of smallpox. All the possible precautions were taken and as the case was a mild one no danger whatever was apphrehended. Inquiry as to the cause of the case showed that there had been a smallpox case some time since in the house where Miss White visited in Indianapolis, and it is thought that the germs which she received must have been in a blanket which had been laid away and recentrly brought out for use. The home of the sick girl was quarantined and a strict watch kept that no opportunity was given the disease to spread. No one was permitted to enter the house except those who were compelled to be there, and these were not permitted to leave. The only violation of the placard which had been placed upon the house was on the part of the family cat. "This eat," says Dr. Hoadley. “visited all the houses in the neighborhood. and had been driven away from the house where the young lady was ill a number of times. A ihiid of Flavius Cooper, who lived but a few doors of the place, was very fond of the eat and played with it a great deal, and last week developed a ease of smallpox. There mid be nothing better, or worse, to carry such germs and 1 am of the opinion that the cat is responslble for the sickness of the little girl.—Friday Caller.

How One Doctor Successfully Treats Pneumonia. “In treating pneumonia,” says Dr. \Y. J. Smith, of Sanders, Ala., “the only remedy I use for the lungs is Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. While of course, I would treat other symptoms with different medicines, I have used this remedy many times in my medical practice and have yet failed to find a case where it has not controlled the trouble. I have used it myself, as has also my wife for coughs and colds repeatedly, and I moat willingly and cheerfully recommend it as superior to any other (•ought remedy to my knowledge.’’ For sale by all dealers.

The fire was discovered by Dr. Swahlen himself. Jack Kane had ! been at work on the furnace flue and j had cleaned It and lighted a fire in j the furnace. Dr. Swahlen was in the sitting room on the lower floor when he heard the roar and crackle of flames as they burst through the roof Before the flames were checked they had eaten their way to the first floor. Two rooms were entirely burned out, and the study was much damaged by smoke and water. Mrs. Hypes, Mrs. Swahlen's mother who Is quite feeble, was remov°d from the burning house and taken to the residence of J. P. Allen, Jr. Dr. and Mrs. Swahlen are quartered temporarily at the home of F. A. Arnold, next door to the burned property. The cause of the Are is yet unknown. It is supposed to have originated in a defective flue. Dr. Swahlen, however, states that he believed a fire had been smoldering for some time and that the cleaning of the flue that day gave the necessary ventilation to start the blaze. He does not believe there was time for a fire to start and gain such headway after the relighting of the furnace fire about 3:15. The house and contents were insured.
