CONCERN
For Others Led to Death of
Former Neptune Boy.

James p. League, a contractor and
assistant claim agent Of the O. e.
traction line at Lima, and a former
Neptune boy where he was boorn in
1876, was almost instantly electro
cuted last Friday at Lima, when he
came in contact with live wire
hanging from pole. For fear
some one else would become vic
tim of the wire he took a broom to
transfer il to safe place Hardly
had he touched il when he fell un-
conscious, The broom was found to
be water-soaked and served as a con-
ductor for the electricity.
Mr.. League, while absent from his
old home at Neptune a good many
years, is wei Remembered there as
well as in Celina. He had been a
teacher at Neptune and a leader of
their band. He was married to Miss
Florence Miller, of Neptune, in 1905,
and she with one child survive him.
His remains were taken to St Marys
for burial, where funeral services
were held.

IN AND ABOUT THE FORT

The almos daily rains for the past
three weeks means a serious crop loss
for many Mercre county farmers.
Those who have their wheat cut and
stacked are to be congratulated. In
many cases the reapers were unable
to cut the over-ripe grain because of
the wet and miTy condition of the
ground. In other fields the wheat
was beaten almost fiat. Some farm
ers report the grain in the shock to
be damaged by water.
The storm Tuesday evening was
most severe south of Fort Recovery
Sharpsburg was visited by one of the
most severe hail storms in many
years. Near the county line corn
fields were riddled by hail and the
wind laid the corn and oats almost
to the ground The stream flowing
through the Mott farm became flood
ed and washed out some grain in the
shock and destroyed several rods of
fence. Many hardwood and orchard
trees were also blown down by the
wind. Hail stones an inch in diam
eter fell in large quantities, and at
the home of Tony Hemmelgarn q
window panes were broken.-Fort

TO THE KING OF BOOSTERS

A. P. put" Sandles, the live wire
of the Ohio Department of Agricul-
ture, who has been on the job for six
and a half years, and should have
been there that many years longer,
has laid down the work he has so
conscientiously and pains-takingly
done and retired to his private wig
wan. The state never had an equal
as an agricultural booster, and his
tribe is few and far between. He is
a natural booster-he couldn't be
anything else. He is a Democrat
among Democrats, and we're as
proud of him as a boy is of his first
pair of red top boots. The Ohio De-
partment of Agriculture loses a man
they could not afford to lose.

SEVERAL
DrOwnIngs Result from Recent
Freshets, Swollen Streams
and Strong Currents.

Alfred Roebuck, the Is year old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas B. Roe
buck, Center township, was drowned
in Twelve-Mile Creek, near the Roe
buck home, last Saturday afternoon.
Young Roebuck, in company with
several other boys, were in bathing
and learning to swim. Getting into
deep water near a bridge, where the
current was stronger, the boys COM
menced to swim in shore, frightened
at it's swiftness. The Roebuck lad
was unable to reach shore and dis
appeared, his companions in their
haste hardly realizing his predica
ment, or that he was drowned. They
finally alarmed the neighborhood and
search for the body of the drowend
lad was continued until lat in the
night. Sunday, at daybreak, the
search was renewed and about six
o'clock his body was discovered by
Harry Thomas, about a hundred
yards from the scene of the drown
ing.
AS a result of the recent rains
Twelve-Mile was unusually high and
none of the boys probably realized
the danger they were in from the
rapid current that finally caught one
of their number.
The funeral of oung Roebuck was
held from the Mt Zion Church Mon
day, eing conducted by Rev. Geyer
at the Roebuck cemetery. |
