HE IS FOR DR. COOK PUTNAM CASES IN CLAY A VOLUMINOUS COMPLAINT OWNED SAW MILL AND HOTEL

The Indianapolis News of Saturday has the following communication from James T. Denny of this town: Now the world lias received the final and completely demonstrative proof that Dr. Cook was not at the north pole, nor indeed near there. All of this wonderful and thoroughly convincing evidence Is given iu the route of travel of Dr. Cook and his Eskimo boys as marked out and identified by the latter. And to make sure that there was no mistake made and that there was no collusion, the boys were taken in and examined seperately so as to insure absolute certainty of the falsity of Cook’s claims. "Before accepting the evidence of the map as being conclusive of the question at issue or even being of any probable value as deciding the case against Dr. Cook, one of two propositions must be true: Either those boys were so familiar with the regions through which they traveled and of the map of it that they could identify the line of travel on the map, or that they understood navigation sufficiently well to take observations and work out their location from day to day. It ts very probable, in fact, on the side of the proposition it is certain, that somebody in the interest of Commander Peary, possible without his connivance, coached and trained these boys. Peary and the amiable gentleman with him may have been lured into the belief that they had at last made full and positive proof of the falsity of Cook's claims; not so with any other thinking person. “Peary expects the world to believe that Cook was just fooling around on a make-believe jaunt and in due time turned up with a fake claim that he had found the pole. Bosh” , JAMES T. DENNY, Greencastle, Ind.

A new case which has just been sent down from Putnam County is the damage suit of Paul C. Hill against the Terre Haute, Indianapolis & Eastern Traction Company. Hill bought some furniture in Indianapolis and had it shipped to Greencastle on the traction line but when it arrived it looked like so much kindling wood and he is suing to recover from the company. Another Putnam County case sent here on change of venue is that of Alonzo Crawley et al against the Vandalia railroad company. —Brazil News.

DON'T GIVE SMALL CHECKS

New Federal laiw Makes it a Crime to Give Clicks or Notes For Sums Less Than $1.00.

S. C. Provo is home from Illinois where he went to look after his farming Interests. Mr. Prevo states that he has an excellent yeild of corn, his fields yielding a crop of 75 bushels to the acre.

It has just been discovered that a new federal statute, to take effect on January 10th. nevt, forbids a man to issue a check on his bank account for any sum less tha* $1.00. The law reads thus: "No person shall maife. Issue, circulate or pay out any note, check, memorandum or token or other obligation for a less sum than $1.00, intended to circulate as money or to be received or used in lieu of lawful money of the United States, and every person so offending shall be fined not more than $500, or imprisoned not more than six months or both." It would be intei^sting to know just what influence was brought to bear in getting this senseless law i passed, and it would be very inj teresting indeed to learn what Con- : gressman would stand up and aniswer "aye on a call for the suppoit1 ers of the silly measure. But o few, if j any, would want or dare own it as | their own. The law’ is unconstitutional anyway in the opinion of the best posted men, and will not stand the tests in the courts.—Exchange.

Another of the Sanford explosion cases came to Putnam county today on change of venue from Clay county which in turn had received 't from Vigo county. The case is filed by Joseph M. Hendricks against the C. C. C. & St. L. Railroad and is for the sum of $:!0,000 for damages received in the explosion. The complaint is one of the most voluminous ever filed in the circuit court here. It is in eight paragraphs and sets out several theories of the case . It is first alleged that the explosion was in a car containing 12,500 pounds of powder, and that the explosion was due to the carelessness of the defendant company. It alleges that the piatntiff was in a passenger car within four feet, of the exploding car and that the plaintiff was injured in the face, head, collar-bone, ears, ear-drums, should-er-blades arms, wrists, fingers, legs, ankles, lungs, internal organs and breast. For these injuries, which the complaint alleges make it impossible for him to follow his vocation! of locomotive engineer, the plaintiff asks $:;0,000 damages. In the subsequent paragraphs the complaint sets out the theory that the explosion was caused by the lack of skill and intelligence of the crew handling the car of powder, it being alleged that flambeaus were used In and around the car and the car unguarded. It ts further alleged that the explosion was caused by sparks thrown off front the wheels of the passenger train when the brakes were applied, the car of powder being dangerously near tne passenger track. Finally it is alleged that bolts and nails on the in'i.le of the care uncovered with rubbt r covering, as should have been done, came In contact with metal In the packages of powder and caused ho explosion. Altogether there are fifty pages of the complaint closely typewritten. If the case comes to trial here there will be a long job for some jurymen.

Pinning a note to the wall of the blacksmith shop next to the Monon station in Cataract, saying that his property should go to his wife and that his body would be found in Eel River near the town. D. Z. Irwin, owner of the hotel and of a saw mill at Cataract disappeared Sunday night. Mr. Irwin was formerly trustee of the township in which he lived and is a son-in-law’ of Dr. J. M. Jones of Cataract. He is one of the best men in the vicinity of his home. Many people here who have camped at Eel River were well acquainted with Mr. Irwin. Dr. Jones, also, is well known to many Greencastle and Putnam county people. It is said that financial troubles had caused Mr. Irwin to become meloncholy. He left his home Sunday night and went to the blacksmith shop where he pinned the note, which was addressed to his wife, to the wall. He has not been seen since he left his home. The note stated that he wanted his wife to have all of his property to do with as she liked and that lie never would be seen alive. The note said that his body would be found in one of the holes near Cataract. Dilligent search has been made for Mr. Irwin or his body by persons living in or near Cloverdale but so far nothing has been found that would lead to clearing the mystery.

Damage suits came thick and fas! in Superior court in Terre Haute on hursday, since it was the last day !..uler the statute of limitation upon which damage cases could be fil"d against the Du Pont Powder Company In connection with the Fontar.et disaster two years ago. Five suits for more than $ Ml.000 damages were

filed during the day.

Two years ago Friday the big powder mill of the Du Pont Company exploded at Fontanet, Ind., killing more than 35 persons and Injuring hundreds of others, besides doing almost inestimable damage. The shock I of the explosion caused the entire southern part of Indiana to vibrate as though from an earthquake. The largest suit filed Thursday was that of Edith Hopton for $25,000 damages against the powder compauy She claims to have been injured while In her home near the mill when it exploded. John Hopton, a relative, filed suit for $ 10,000, alleging that he was injured at the ianie time the woman was and that they were together at the time. Albert and Jennie McDonald tiled -lilt for $5,000 damages apiece charging that they were injured and disabled by the explosion while in their home near the scene of the accident.

Why Not Now?

Fortunately this great loss is divided among many owners, the greatest loss may not exceed $5,000. Many men fought bravely for hours to conquer the flames, but they did not succeed until hundreds of acres of woods, meadows, fields and hundreds of rods of fence were burned. This is a brief and conservative statement of the annual loss to Indiana farmers; caused by forest fires, most of which could have been avoided. The State Board of Forestry is active in trying to stay this loss. They have had printed on muslin the Indiana Forest Fire law, which provides that one may be fined not less than $5.00 nor more than $50.00 for setting fire to woods, be-

sides being liable for all

done.
