The ever-increasing circulation of this ex-

.ion to popular desires and needs. Indeed,
when we think into how many homes 1t PEN

one of the educators as we'll as entertainers of
the public mind.-Bost0n Globe
The character which this magazine pos
sesses for variety, enterprise, artistic wealth
ifit has not led the times, should cause its
conductors to regard it with justiiable COM

Some of the most popular of modern novels
have first appeared as serials in this maga-

Many years ago. while Judge Petit.
of Indiana, was canvassing his dis
trict for Congress, to which position
he succeeded, and when he was In
the midst OF an eloquent address to a
large assembly of voters. one Of the
class of peculiarly smart Alexis, so
often found in such places, having
posted himself in front OF the speak
er's stand, annoyed the speaker and
the audience exceedingly by shouts
OF applause. interspersed with excla-
nations of, go il. old fellowl"
"Them's my sentimentsl" Give 'em
hell!' etc. This annoyance became
unbearable- The Judge. peering into
the crowd where the noise came from.
invited the enthusiastic youth to
come upon the stand. The invita-
ton was greedily accepted by the
youth, who, on arriving on the
speakers stand, was conf onted by
the Judge, who in that loud COM
manding tone for which he was dis
tinguished, said:
young man, do you ever read the
Jible?"
"Yes. Judge. do
do you Relieve what it teaches?-
"Yes. OF course l do
did you ever read that passage in
which Christ told Nicodemus that
he must be born AGAIN."
~Yes, oh yes"
"Do you believe in that doctrine?s
"Oh yes, OF course do, judge"
"Well, young man; go home and
into your cioset,and on bended knees.

born again. and let the burden OF
that prayer be sfill-born. you darned

Explosion OF q Barrel Of Sour.

About 8 o'clock on Sunday night,
when the storm was at It's height, a
number OF the inhabitants of the
Hill were startled by a report re-
sembling a salvo of artillery. High
above all the din of dashing rain and
decorating claps OF thunder it rose,
and for few moments ii seemed to
those that heard it as if the judg-
ment day had come. In a few min
utes some OF the most daring darted
out through the tempest ir the di-
rection whence the awful noise pro-
ceeded, and encountered one of our
German citizens shouting at the top
OF his voice, like one crazy:
90 mein saur-krautl Mein saur-
kraut!"
All endeavors to pacify him were
unavailing, and while some took
charge OF the miserable man others
entered the building Here a scene
presented itself that completely beg
gars description. On the lounge sat
the "frau;" picture of despair, en-
deavoring to "unkrout" her new
dress,while three children, nearly COW
cred with sauer-kraut, were flying
about the apartment taking handfuls
81 t,ff IF baf he
and eyes. Every article of furniture
in the room was displaced, and over
the door and all around was kraut-
sauer-kraut.
1t soon transpired that large bar
rel full Of kraut had been brought up
from the cellar to the fire to be
thawed out,and the head being close
ly nailed on, the gas genera ted had
no vent. and exploded with terrific
force, bursting the barrel and scat
tering the contents in every direc-
tion- The entire apartment was for
the time being converted into a
strange phantasmagoria. From
every piece OF furniture hung fes-
toops OF sauer- kraut like Florida
moss in Southern forests. The su-
perintendent of the gass works gives
it as his opinion that the catastrophe
was caused by "the oxygenated KY
lophorium being precipitated amor
phously on the categorical section OF
the elpytical cylinder, thereby caus-
ing a sudden rododendron on the bo-
mogereous conglomerated mass
which caused the sauer- kraut to ex-
plode." We are pretty much Of the
same opinion as to his conclusion.
though we do not exactly agree with
his premises. We sympdthize with
our unfortunate friend in his loss, and
hope that it may prove a warning to
others under similar circumstances

A Pair Of Lively Boys, Now Actors.

They were boys. then; one tall.
dark and active. II was Sunday
night. Everyone had gone to the
Quaker house few doors above.
They were alone. without cards or
checkers or books, but Satan came to
the rescue. A certain proposal was
drawled by the long chap. and eager
ly accepted by the short one. They
then put on their hats and coats,
armed themselves with broom, a
pail of water and dippes. and went
forth into the still, bitter cold OF the
night, and worked diligently. They
swept broad path over the sloping
sidewalk quite free from snow; over
this they poured dipper Of water,
then waited. In a few minutes it
had frozen; then another dipper OF
water and another wait, until the
path was glass-like i'm 1t icy smooth
ness. A whisk OF the broom sent
light covering of snow over it; the
work was done, and the goddess la
borers gathering up their tools.
scrouged themselves down on the
doorstep and conversed pleasantly
Presently the doors of the meeting
house opened. and two lines Of
Friends, one made up of males, the
other Of females, came out. These
lines, coming down the steps sepa-
rately, met and mingled in u crowd
on the pavement for a few moments,
then broke into twos and threcs, and
came gravely down the sidewalk.
Suddenly the stiffness of the night
was broken by a whack! whackl and
two snorts that were as one. A fe-
male Friend few to the rescue
whackl The whole congregation,
filled with wonder. came ambling
down to the scene of disaster-whack
whackl whackl groans and snorts,
"thees" aud "thous" filled the air, and,
with cheeks stained with tears of
laughter, they sat on the step and
"took it in," those sons of Belial,

stuck beneath each arm, Just above

Changes OF a Century.

The nineteenth century has wit
messed many and great discoveries.
In 1909 Fulton took out the first pat
ent for the invention OF n steam
boat. The first steamboats, which
made regular trips across the Adam
tic Ocean were the Sirius and Great
Western in $780,. The first applica-
tion to practical use Of gas Cor ilIu-
mination was made in 1902. In 1919.
there was in Waltham, Mass, q mill
supposed to be the first in the world
combined I'll the requirements for
making finished cloth from raw cot
ton. In 1890 there were only twenty
five post offices in the whole country,
and up 10 1897, the rates of postage
were twenty-five cents for q letter
over 400 miles. In 1907 wooden
clocks commenced to be made by
machinery. This ushered in the era
OF cheap clocks. About the year 1893
the first railroad or any considerabIo
length was constructed. In ls40 the
first experiments in photography
were made by Daguerre. About
1850 the first express business wss
established. The anthracite coal
business may be said to have begun
in 1920. In 1886 the patent for the
invention OF matches wss granted.
In 1855 the first telegram was sent
Steel pens were introduced for use
in 1903. The successful trial Of q
reaper was made in 1888. In 1s47
Elias Howe obtained patent for bis
first sewing machine. The first sue
cessful method OF making vulcsnized
rubber was patented in 1859.

A Menace to the Union.

Behind the cry OF "bloody shirt"
Southern criminals have hid them
selves, and Northern journals have
mislsd the people by putting into
prominence issues of little value, but
which served to cover from sight the
names OF men who had done deeds OF
infamy, deeds OF bloody wiekedness.
In the largest cities of the Union the
Influential" press will find that it
cannot continue to sneer out OF no.
tice either murder or the murderer.
1t has made mistake. The condi-
ton of the South is a source of ma
tional danger, for which the people
will hold recreant journals response
bic. Editors and correspondents who
impudently told their readers that
the news Of the lawless state OF the
South was the fiction OF the bloody
shirt have deceived the people, aud
deceived the people who trusted
them willfully and andaoiousiy, and
the result Of the deception by the
press under the pretense OF their un-
dertaking to pronounce Southern
bloodshed as "bloody shirt" fiction is
South stiU disloyal in a great meas
ure, which has defeated the great OBJ.
iect for which the war was fought and
the sacrifices borne, and the public
debt under which we stagger ha:
brought little fruit. The Democratic
states OF the South to-day are q
standing menace to the Union.

Letter From the State Centennial
Committee.

Editor Republicdn:-DEARS SIR: To
this date there has been reported
from Marshall county, as OF contri-
buttons to the State Centennial Find,
only the single item Of $1,000 from
the county schools.
1t is possible that other amounts
have been raised and not yet remit
ted, but, il not, will it not be possible
to have your county more justly rep
resented in this most most impor-
tant work-one which IN sst and will
result in accomplishing great good
for every interest within the State
The articles for exhibition are COM
ing in from every part Of the State,
and there is now no doubt but Indi-
ana can make a very creditabie ex-
hibit of educational work and of its
varied material resources. There Is
not, however, sufficient amount OF
money YET contributed to pay the
very economical expenditure for the
State Headquarters Building and for
the arrangement, transportation and
care OF the articles for exhibition
It will be unfortunate if the exhibit
shall fail in any department from
this cause when trifling effort On
the part OF the citizens, or even OF
school children, will easily furnish all
that is required. A number OF coun-
ties haye contributed their full share
aud more, and the citizens of those
which have not will certainly regret
it by and by when the real character
and Importance OF this greatest OF
the worlds. s.expositions is more clear
ly understood.
The Managers and State Commit
tee ara serving the State at their
individual expense, and are carefully
guarding the expenditure. Will not
some public spirited lady or gentle
man take this matter in hand in each
community, and enlist their friends
to arrange for some kind of public
entertainment, or for a direct can
vass among your citizens, on behalf
Of the State fund. Such measures
have met a prompt response where
ever adopted, and no doubt will in
your county. Not only should this
have attention in the larger cities and
town, but in the smaller towns and
villages, and in the country as well.
Contributions in any amount may be
made by individuals or communities,
and should be sent without delay to
j. M Ridenour, Indianapolis, Treas
urer of State Committee. There can
be no good reason for the longer de-
tention OF funds which have already
| been raised in the hands or local
committees, and there is pressing
immediate necessity for it here, as a
very large share OF the expenditure
must be made before May lst.
1t is also suggested to all local
committees or individuals having ar
ticles inten ded for the State exhibit
that the shipment must be made inn
mcdiately as they must he at Indian
apolis by April 5th. at the latest day
1t is required that they shall be at
Philadelphia by April 18th. Ship
ments OF this kind should be sent at
once to Prof f. T. Cox, care OF Glib
sons Warehouse, indianapolis.
