It Is predicted that this year the changes of residences will be far great CT than ever before and that every availahIe van, wagon. dray and cart will be taxed for a week. This is ascribed to the great advance in rents, brought about through increased de- mand for homes and the rapid advance in real estate values.

New Castle Courier Informed
That He Was Injured in
Runaway at Trenton.
HIS SUIT PENDING HERE
IF INJURIES OF HENRY COUNTY
MAN ARE AS SERIOUS AS RE-
PORTED HE MAY NOT BE HERE
WHEN CASE is CALLED.

George Hazard, the Henry county
series of troubles over the alleged
forged contracts for copies of his his
tory of the county, may not be in
Richmond on November 19, when one
of the Hazard cases is to be heard
in the Wayne circuit court on a
charge of venue from Henry county.
According to dispatch from Tren-
ton. N. ]. Hazard was badly injured
in a runaway accident on Friday last.
At New Castle. it is asserted, there
is some feeling that perhaps the news
paper dispatch from Trenton is u
Joke but it was wired to the Cour-
Ter of that place and charge were
prepaid. The message bore the sig
nature, Reporter" The dispatch
reads as follows:
George Hazard was badly hurt
here Friday afternoon. Hazard has
been here nearly ten days visiting
friends and seeking the whereabouts
in New Jersey and in New York of
Julian Olds, whose testimony is inn
portant in litigation in Henry county.
Yesterday afternoon he and a friend
drove to Princeton, twelve niles dis
tant, to visit Grover Cleveland. On
their return, when about half way
between the places, the horse took
fright at an approaching automobile.
Hazards friend got out of the bug
gy to hold the horse and Hazard be-
coming alarmed attempted to get out
in doing so his crutch caught in the
wheel and broke and he was thrown
heavily to the ground on his left side,
the lame side. In falling he became
entangled in the driving lines, and
the horse, becoming wild, broke away
and started to run, upsetting the bug
gy on Hazard who, was dragged full
ly 800 feet before the horse broke
away from the wreck.
Hazard was picked up unconscious
and carried into a farmers house
near Later regaining consciousness
he was moved to a permanent hospi-
tai. He is all bruised up, and while
he is not fatally hurt, yet that he is
badly hurt there is no doubt
Fortunately Hazard has friends
here who will see that he is properly
cared for and all of his wants sup
piled to the fullest extent Mrs Arm
strong, his sister in Washington,
came, and his family in Washington
state, have been informed by tele
graph.

ALCOHOLISM ON INCREASE
GROWING DEMAND FOR LIQUOR
IN THE ARMY is ATTRIBUTED
TO THE ABOLITION OF THE
SALE OF BEER.

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE surgeon
general of the army, in his report to
the Secretary of War, made public to-
day, makes the startling announce
ment that at least so per cent of the
entire population of Porto Rico is in
fected with the lazy worm. Captain
b. K. Ashford, assistant surgeon. has
been on duty in that island the past
year and 1t is reported that thousands
of cases of uncinariasis.
The deaths in the army have dimin-
ished, the per centage given being
62S per one thousand against CTS
the previous year. The death rate
from disease was the lowest in the
United States since 1897. Alcoholism
and tuberculosis are reported to have
shown an increase while there have
been fewer of typhoid fever and pneu-
monia- Twenty three per cent of the
total number of deaths was due to
suicide, which it is announced was
twice as great among white as col
ored troops. In the matter of honli-
cides, the proportion was the same
but this time in favor of the whites.
The steady increase in alcoholism
in the army is attributed to tho ad
clifton of the sale of beer. The sur
geon general says he fully concurs IN
this view which is entertained by
many officers of the army.
