Robert Durbin, of this city, has a

the State, so far as heard from He
puts to shame the hens in this neigh
borhood by his attention to their
business, in fact he acts very like q
veritable hen-pecked hubby. The
rooster is four years old and is either
tired or lazy, for of late he has been
inclined to sit around and let the
hens do their own scratching. The
old fellow would squat down in box
and sit in that position the Hvelong
day. Mr.. Durbin who utilizes every
thing belonging to him, was seized
with an inspiration. He gathered
up eighteen eggs and placed them
under the rooster and in the accus-
toned time fourteen little chicks
came duly forth. The astonished old
rooster did not know what to make
Of it when he found himself the
proud owner of so many orphans,
but he wisely concluded that hei was
In for it, and, at once set to work to
care for them, and has since mother

have done, scratching for them and
covering them with his wings as nice
ly as the best mother-hen. Nine Of
the chicks are still living, and are
healthy MIR. Durbin will set the

Geo. Rafferty,, O young man, son Of
Alex Rafferty, west of town, suffered
serious if not fatal Injuries at Wapa-
koneta, o., last Friday. He was at
tempting to beard moving train
when he slipped and fell under
the wheels. His right leg was severed
just above the knee and the left foot
mashed and split open from the toes
to the ankle. He was taken to the
hospital where his wounds received

were such that he was unable to say
whether they will be fatal or not.
He will be moved to his fathers
home in Napoleon township as soon
as he can stand the journey.
Since writing the above we have
received letter from Mr.. Rafferty,
in which he states that his son is do
ing better than could be expected.
While his injuries are as we have
stated the doctors will save his left

B Robbery at Hamler.

Last Saturday noon while the
agents at the L. N. and B. s. o. depot
were at dinner some thief broke in
to the depot and took from the tick
ct case package containing $S9 be-
sides some small change. The rob-
berry was committed in about ten
minutes and the guilty party or par
ties seemed to have disappeared
completely. In the course Of the af-
ternoon suspicion fell on Worthy
Stevens who was seen leaving the
depot about the time in question and
who later in the afternoon left town.
Mayor Fry and Marshal Blinn accom-
panied by Mr.. Lindoerfer started
Sunday morning in search of the
missing man. He was found, ar
rested and brought back to town.
Monday afternoon he had his trial
when he was found innocent and let
go. Nothing farther has been done,
but it is. hoped that the guilty par
ties will yet be found and punished
as Hamler has been having consider
able stealing going on and no clue to
the perpetrators.

wards Counterfeits,

Either counterfeit money or counter
felt goods of any kind. The U. S.
Court, sitting at Rochester, N. Y,
has ordered an injunction against
the sale of Grain-O in packages made
to initiate the original Postum Cereal
Food Coffee packages.
The counterfeit in this case was
put out in packages having the red

Postum, and the nondiscrilninating
public have been given this or some
one of the other various limitations
when calling at the stores for the
original Postum Cereal Food Coffee.
These makers of articles to furnish
Crocers with which to Substitute
for some original article have little
idea of hygienic or food value in a
Cereal Coffee. Some counterfeits are
offered in place Of Postum because
the package weighs two. pounds,
while the genuine package weighs
but II lbs. One counterfeit two
pound package looks like Drowned
rye kernals ground. 1t is probably
harmless enough but no idea of food
value ia there. Postum is made by
skillful food experts, 70 per cent. be-
| ing secured from the parts OF the
cereals containing the albumen and
phosphates required by the human
body to rebuild the gray matter in
the nerve cells. This part also pro,
duces the disatase which digests
