Effie P. Hildebrant, a neighbor, to make an investigation Wednesday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock, which revealed that a water pipe in the house had bursted and the water had flooded the entire lower floor of the structure. The water was shut off by employes of the water works, a key to the home secured and an examination made. This showed that the break in the pipe occurred in the bath room upstairs. This portion of the house had been flooded and the water then descended to the first story.

A large portion of the plastering on the celling of the first floor had fallen, when the sweeping water loosened it. Three new oriental rugs, recently purchased by Mr. Lamb, were badly damaged by the water, in addition to numerous articles of furniture and other fur. nishings. It is thought that the pipe froze and then burst, since there was practically no heat in the house.

Mr. and Mrs. Lamb have been away from the city for the past several weeks, Mrs. Lamb visiting relatives in Bexley, a suburb of Columbus, and Mr. Lamb stopping at Magnetic Springs.

QUARANTINE On Hay And Straw Has Been Modified Washington, D. Nov. 19-The provisions of the Federal quarantines declared on account of the foot-andmouth disease have been somewhat modified in so far as they apply to shipments of hay and straw. The new regulations provide that hay and straw cut prior to August 1, 1914, and baled prior to October 1, 1914, may be shipped without disinfection from any of the quarantined areas, provided that it has been stored away from cattle, sheep or swine. Hitherto it was necessery that hay should not only have been cut before August 1st, but that it should also have been baled before that date.

CLINTON TP. To Vote On Saloon Question December 8 A local option election under the Beal law to determine whether 88- loons shall be permitted to operate in Clinton township will be held Tuesday, Dec. 8, the same date as the election in Mt.

STORE PAGE FIVE VIOLATED PAROLE: And Wm. Flynn Goes Back To Reformatory Other Men Mixed Up In Attempted Duck Stealing A Released From Jail On Thursday Morning Man Given Lecture For Violating Quarantine Order The Curtis Hotel Is Appraised At $37,500 William Flynn and Roy Mapes were arrested at an East Water street home Wednesday afternoon by Chief of Police Parker and Officer McElroy and placed in the county jail to tell what they knew about the attempted duck stealing at the residence of A. 0, Wyker in Green Valley on Tuesday night. On Thursday Mapes and John Williams, who was also said to have been mixed up in the affair, were released from jail and Flynn was taken to Mansfield by Chief of Police Parker, having violated his parole from the Ohio State Reformatory. Both Mapes and Williams stated they had nothing to do with the affair and were informed by Flynn that he owned the Wyker farm and that he would give the ducks for the boys to have a "stew" in the city.

After being driven out of the coop, Mapes said to Flynn: "I thought you owned the farm." "I do," replied Flynn, "but it is heavily mortgaged." Explained The Order- Marion Woods, residing north of Mt. Vernon, came near getting into trouble Wednesday afternoon for violating. the state quarantine order, prohibiting the removing of stock from one farm to another. Woods was moving to a farm south of Mt. Vernon and in the afternoon attempted to drive his cow to the new home.

Someone saw Woods driving the cow and telephoned Prosecutor Cromley. Deputy Sheriff Mossholder was sent out and took Woods before the prosecutor where the orders of the state agricultural commission were explained. Prosecutor Cromley then allowed Mr. Woods to go upon condition that he observe the orders of the state department in the future. -0 Charge Withdrawn- The charge of violating the order against hunting on acount of the footand mouth disease, placed against Chauncery Harmon by Cary Bell, was withdrawn late Wednesday afternoon and Mr.

While the state's quarantine order underwent some modification, further relief for stockraigers and others interested appears to be remote. Governor Cox 1g not expected to enter what now amounts almost to a controversy between the authorities and those who are losing money because of the quarantine until he has returned from Kentucky the first of next week. Following receipt of reports of two additional affected herds of cattle in Licking county, Dr. Imes, inspector in charge of the government's Ohio, declared the situation "anything but good," and said the embargo on interstate shipments is to remain in force for an indefinitely extended period. What the state agricultural commission did in the way of relief was to modify the quarantine order to allow shipments within the state of healthy cattle for immediate slaughter from counties where the disease has not developed.

but before any such shipments may be made permits must be obtained from the inspector in charge of the district in which the county is situated. The agricultural commission mada an amendment to its anti-hunting order. The amendment grants permission to hunters to shoot ducks from boats on any stream or lake, provided they do not leave their boats to tresrass on private property. Austrians Report Successes.

At a point eighty miles out of Skagway the survey bad been made for the road along 1 the shore of a lake, but it was found to be so irregular and broken by so many coves that the plan was adopted of getting a better line by lowering the level of the lake. This was done by cutting An outlet channel, through which fourteen feet of the lake drained off.

But presently the new channel, having been cut through a sandy hill, gave way, and the escaping lake water wore an enormous canyon through the country and reduced the lake level again over Neventy feet. A fine, level roadbed WAS secured over what was formerly the bed of the lake. -Argonaut.
