Acts As Human Incubator. i A dispatch from Cincinnati states . that Jacob Seitz of Lockland, a suj berb, has just hatched out 42 chick- ; ens. He did it all himself, save for ' laying the eggs, spent all his time on the nest and says being a human incubator isn't so hard a job as most people make it out to be. His four Plymouth Rock hew were stolen three days before the chicks were due to hatch. He rushed the eggs to his cellar, mode up a bed in which he laid with the eggs all about him, and with the aid of a heavy blanket succeeded in hatching 42 from 60 eggs. Mrs, Seitz helped him make the bed and tucked him in. He reposed I for three days, having his meals 1 brought to him and being supplied I with his pipe, tobacco and matches I by his wife. Water Rent Due. All water rent must be paid on or before July 1, 1911, otherwise water will be turned off and a penalty charged to turn it on again. Otis C. Butt, clerk.

A Revolution In Storage Batteries It is again said that Thomas A. Edison, the wizard of the electrical world, has perfected the storage battery upon which he has been experimenting for many years. This announcement has been made a number of times before, but it is de--1 dared never with Mr. Edison’s sanc- * tion until he himself announced it ’in a meeting of electrical experts a few days ago. He declared, the report says, that he has perfected a 1 battety that can be placed in a suit case that will propel a vehicle fifty or sixty miles on - one charge and can be re-charged in three or four minutes at small cost. If he has 1 perfected such a battery it means the revolutionizing of street rail--1 road, automobile and perhaps all ' traction affairs, big and little. If 1 the battery is practical and economical it should serve to very materially reduce the cost of automobiles, because it will eliminate some 1 very expensive parts now essential in automobile construction. It will . be the crowning achievement of one of the most useful and prolific lives since time began if Mr. Edisoe can give to the world in his declining years a practical, simple and cheap ■ storage battery. Will Lay Corner Stone July 27. July 27 has been decided upon as the date for laying the corner , stone of the new court house of De- ; Kalb county. This could not be ‘ done until Governor Thomas R. MarI shall was heard from but now all i doubt is removed. He and Judge : M. Powers will deliver the afternoon ' addresses. In the forenoon the ’ grand master of the Masonic order will preside over the Masonic exercises. In addition there will be mtisic, instrumental and vocal, and , other numbers not yet decided upon. ■ The board of commissioners propose to make it a county affair from beginning to end.—LaGrange Saturday Call.

CELEBRATED GOLDEN WEDDING ANNIVERSARY | The country home of Stephen D. Miller, living south of town presented a very pretty appearance Tuesday, July 4th. The exterior was tastefully decorated in flags and bunting and the interior in festoons of gold crepe paper and beautiful tiger lilies. The cause for the festive decorations was the celebration of their 50th wedding anniversary. Relatives, friends and neighbors to the number of one hundred and four gathered there and made the occasion one long to be remembered by those present. Mrs. Miller, who suffered a stroke of paralysis several years ago, was unable to do the necessary work beforehand but under her able supervision her sisters, daughters and daughters-in-law kept up her well known reputation in the culinary line. To say the tables groaned might be an exaggeration but wc know for a certainty that the people wyo sat around them did. In the afternoon the guests were delightfully entertained by several recitations, and a song by Mrs. A. C. Brower and short talks appropriate to the occasion by Mr. and Mrs. Dolan, Andrew Strieby and Stephen Miller. Many very pretty and useful presents were received. The children gave a beautiful dining table and a.so a library table A very large round center piece embroidered in white, a smaller one in colors, a shelf scarf, two dresser scarfs, and a match holder were all beautifully embroidered and presented by Mrs. Miller’s two sisters, Mrs. Ka e Boyer and Mrs Jacob Walter, < f Saranac, Michigan, one of whom is older than Mrs. Miller. A gift which caused considerable merriment was a “Golden Nixel,” a bronzed dog presented by a niece of Mrs. Miller, Mrs. Mary Miltenberger. . \, Mr. and Mrs. Miller were married July 4, 1891 in Jackson township, Elkhart county, when Mrs. Miller was fifteen years of age and MrMiller twenty. They resided in that township four years and then moved to Jefferson township south of Milford, Kosciusko county where they lived four years. From there they moved to Tippacanoe township. Two years later they moved east of Leesburg and after living there six years, in 1876 they settled on a farm south of town near the Mock school house where they lived until about seven years ago when they moved where they now live. To them ten children were born, nine of whom are living and one, a girl, died at the age of two and a half years. The children are Firman, of North Dakota, Mrs. Wm. Strieby, Samuel, Marion, Charles, of Moosjaw. Canada, Mrs. Frank Bushong, Earle, of South Bend, Mrs. Joe Good, ot South Bend, and Mrs. Guy Fisher. They have thirty grandchildren and two great grandchildren. The great grandchildren are Helen Kathyrine, daughter of Mrs. Harry Leacock, of Allentown, Penn., and Lewis, son of Emory Miller, of North Dakota. They are grandparents of one pair of triplets and two pairs of twins. Mr. and Mrs. Miller are estimable DR.

Had a Narrow Escape. Miss Anna Jones, daughter of A. M. Jones of Wawaseeand Miss Josephine Harvey of Washington, D. C. had a narrow escape from being seriously injured last Thursdny morning when their horse became lightened at an automobile and tried to climb a steep bank. The horse was one which was not supposed to be afraid of autos. They had been to town snd were going back home when the auto . came upon them just as they were ( going around the bend by the lake. ; The driver of the machine had giv-’ ; en no warning and they did not kno w ; there was one near till it was right ; upon them and the horse attempled ; to go up that bank which is nearly ; perpendicular. ’Both young ladies ; were thrown out and the buggy was ; demolished. The horse got away ! but was soon caught by Mrs. Frank ’ Younce, who tied it and then went ! to find out what was wrong and ! where. ’ Fortunately the young ladies I were not seriously hurt, only badly i bruised up, and securing a horse I and buggy of Frank Younce, they I went on back to the lake. i It is surprising that more acci- i dents do not occur at this particu- i lar place, for we know from obser- i vation that not more than one auto i driver out of ten gives any warn- i ing when rounding the curve and i they nearly all go round at a high ! rate of speed. ’ < 4 < Vern Long and wife entertained ; Frank Strieby and family, Bert ; Searfoss and family and Joseph ; Smith and family Sunday at their ; home on North Huntington street. ; Ice cream and cake was served dur- ; ing the afternoon and the day pas- ; sed very pleasantly.
