TWO MEN KILLED
At LIBERTY, IND.
Michael Farlander and Samuel
Smith Meet Death in
A Long Fall.
PAINTING A HIGH TOWER
WORK ON THE COURT HOUSE
BUILDING WHEN THE SCAF-
FOLDING GAVE WAY.

James Clay, a local constable, while
in Liberty, Ind. Thursday, saw one OF
his friends killed outright and another
friend fatally injured. These unfor-
tunate men were Michael Farlander
and Samuel Smith, the former being
killed Both men were residents of
Liberty and were very well known.
Farlander and Smith were engaged
in painting the tower on the court
house. They sat on a swinging scat
folding which was suspended a consid-
cradle distance above the ground.
About the court house square were a
large number of people. among them
Mr., Clay.
Suddenly, one of the ropes which
held the scaffolding, broke. and both
men were hurled into space. When
they alighted on the ground below the
crowd which witnessed the accident,
gazed at the victims without making
move, so shocked was everyone by the
accident. Finally several people rush
ed to the assistance of Farlander and
Smith. Farlander was found to be
dead, his head being crushed by the
fall. Smith was still living, but 50
badly injured that it was seen he had
no chances of recovery.

IMPORTANT QUESTION
BEFORE STATE BANKS
Matter of Re-incorporating Is
Presented.
WANT TO RETAIN NAMES.

State banks of Indiana which desire
to renew their charters and reincor-
porate under their old names are con
fronted with an embarrassing situa-
ton. The question as to whether a
state bank can reincorporate at the
expiration of its charter under its old
name, operating as two banks of the
same name, one of them a new bank
handling new business. and the other
liquidating its affairs as the old bank,
has been laid before Attorney Cen
eral James Bingha-s. The attorney
general is expected to render an opin-
ion soon, following a conference with
Fred Sims. secretary of state.
Two weeks ago a state bank apply
ing to Secretary Sims for new char
ter raised the question of reincorpor-
ating under it's old name. The bank
desired to reincorporate under its old
name so as to save the cost of printing
new stationery and to get the benefit
of it's long established trade name.
The same question was raised by two
other banks later. In these cases Sec
retary Sims held that the banks could
not reincorporate under their old
names-that the names must be chang
ed to the extent of one word at least
The banks. however, insisted on an
opinion from Attorney General Bling
ham.

COMMERCIAL BANK
INTEREST REVIVED
Two Recent Occurrences Have
Served to Call Financial
Crash to Mind.
RESPONSIBILITY OF WYATT.
CALIFORNIA LAWS THE LIMIT
OF RESPONSIBILITY HAS AL
MOST EXPIRED.
(Hagerstown Exponent. }

Recent events have caused a revival
Commercial bank failure. The trans
fer of some of the John Bowman prop
erty to Mrs. Bowman. and conference
of some of the heaviest losers in the
failure. with attorneys. for the purpose
of endeavoring to hold James Wyatt
responsible as a partner in the failure,
are the main causes of the revival of
the bank talk. The most interesting
part of it all. to the depositors, is the
subject of Mr.. WAITS responsibility.
Could he have been held responsible
the losses would have been much less,
and perhaps but little. 1t is claimed as
positive fact by many interested that
under existing conditions he was re-
sponsible as a partner, and could have
been held, had the proper legal steps
been taken at the proper time. Mr.
Wyatt was a partner in the bank, and
it is cla>S1ed that he failed to give legal
notice when he sold his interests, as
the law requires. hence is legally re-
sponsible, and some now feel that their
loss is much heavier than it would
have been had there been proper legal
management at the proper time, and
who is responsible for such neglect, is
what some would now like to know.
Those who had attorneys working on
the case have this-Week received very
information: in fact have
no hopes whatever of securing any,
thing from Mr.. Wyatt. California
laws contain a two year limit in such
matters.-that is, responsibility in such
cases ceases in two years, and in this
instance it is claimed that The limit of
responsibility has almost expired.

MORE CHEERFUL NEWS
FROM PEACH REGION
J. C.. Carver Inclined to Think
Report Overcome.
TEN DAYS I'M MICHIGAN.

J. G.. Carver of this city, has just
returned from a visit through the
peach belt of Michigan and reports
that the crop of peaches is not as de
pleted as has been reported over the
country. He says that the early
peaches were destroyed by the frost
but that the late crop is plentiful SO
far as can be ascertained during his
ten days stay in that region.
Mr.. Carver visited his brother, d.
l.. Carver, in Oceanna county, who
has a fruit farm of 200 acres, $50 acres
of which are in fruit trees. So far
this season 500 bushels of plums have
been sold and it is thought the yield
will total 400 bushels. The farm has
also about 600 bushels of peaches, free
stones, that will bring s1.75 per bush
ell, delivered at Heart, the nearest
town. Mr.. Carver visited another farm
of 50 acres, all in peaches that pro-
duces $4,000 bushels.

MAN IS SUSPECTED;
SHOULD BOND HIM
Board of Works Should Take
No Chances on Losing a
Prospective Bidder.
HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL.
SEWER SYSTEM IN THE ViCINI-
TY OF WEST SECOND STREET
MAY BE MADE POSSIBLE BY AN
OHIO MAN.

The board of public works thinks
that a man has finally been located
who will be willing to submit bid
tenn at West Second street. A few
days ago Mr.. Merrill wrote to Mr..
Lowery of the sewer pipe company at
Jackson, Mich, asking him if he knew
of any contractors who would be will
ing to submit a bid for the construc-
ton of this sewer. Mr.. Merrill ex-
planned that the board had been I'M
able to interest any contractors in
the job because the state law provid-
ed that contractors could not be paid
until the completion of the work they
were engaged in.
Mr.. Lowery wrote back to Mr. Mer-
rill stating that Theodore Hill, a well
known Ohio contractor, was just COM
pleting a big contract at Lancaster, o.,
and that he probably would consider
submitting a bid for placing the
Northwest Second street sewer sys-
tenn.
At the board meeting Mr.. Merrill
stated he had prepared plans and spe-
VI the pIoIjooeu sewer oS D
tenn and that he would at once for
ward them to Mr.. Hill. The board
expects that this contractor will sub
NIT a bid. If he submits a reasonable
bid the board will waste but little
time in closing contract with him.
The railroad company is prepared
to start at any time on its part of
the improvements at West Second
street crossing but the railroad COM
pany will not begin these improve
ments until it is assured that the city
is in the position to fulfill its part of
the agreement, which calls for a sew
or system, the estimated cost of which
amounts to $4,000.

that the dog, whose respirationS in re-

favors the dissipation of animal heat

Hagersruwh Telephone Com
Dany Has a Boycott on Its
Hands as a Result.
CRITICISM AND OBJECTION.
THE ADVANCE IN PRICE, WHICH
BECOMES EFFECTIVE OCTOBER
lis FROM s1.oo A MONTH TO
S125.

fIagerstown, Ind, Sept. 2O.-The Ha-
gerstown Telephone company, which Is
owned by Lon Boyd, a banker, OF Cam
bridge City, is experiencing boycott
on the part of it's country patrons.
Three years ago the company volun-
tarily reduced the rate to party line
subscribers from S1.2j to S1.o0 per
month. Last month notice was served
on all country subscribers that the rate
in the future would be retured to 81 %,
and the reason for the advance was
that prices of labor and material had
advanced greatly.
The notice caused much criticism and
objection all along the lines. Some
subscribers have actively taken the
field against the new rate and are cir
culating petitions in which the signers
agree to have their phones taken out IL
the new rate is insisted on. Many
subscribers have signed the petitions
and it looks now as If practically all
the subscribers will have their phones
removed October /, when the new rate
begins.
The company argues that the new
rate is not extortinate and should have
prevailed from the start. The rate of
$1.25 will begin October / even if all
the country subscribers discontinue.
Probably no small exchange in the
country gives it's patrons so many up
to-date appliances as this concern. One
of the latest is the installation for ex
perimental purposes, of selective
ringing system, which enables party
line patrons to talk privately with any
phone on the line or system. Hereto
fore any party line phone was able 20
hear all conversations going over the
wire, which caused great deal of an
noyance and was the source of endless
trouble growing out of meddlesofne
eavesdroppers. 1t is not believed that
when it comes to the test many party
line subscribers will retire on account
OIL the trifling advance in rates.

FROSTS IN SEPTEMBER.
Very Few Killing Freezes Earlier
Than This Time.

The first killing frosts have occurred
in September in seven of the last 20
years. In five of these years the
frosts came before September 20. This
would indicate that the corn crop has
about three out of four chances of es-
Gaping a killing frost the present week.
1t is doubtful, however, if there has
been a year in the last twenty when
frost at similar dates would catch as
much corn in an immature condition.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS Do.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps US
Strong and Healthy.

Ali the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the
blood They work night and day.
When healthy they remove about 500
grains of impure matter daily. When
unhealthy some part of this impure
matter is left in the blood. This
brings on many diseases and symp-
toms-pain in the back. headache.
nervousness, hot, dry skin, rheuma-
tism, govt. gravel. disorders of the
eyesight and hearing, dizziness, irreg-
