DELPHI, June 2S.-The Democrats of Carroll,
Pulaski and White counties held their senatorial
convention here to-day, nominating E. B. Sell
lers, of White. Immediately upon adjournment
the judicial convention of the counties of Car
roll and White was held resulting in the nom
ination of Will c. Smith, of Carroll, for prose-
cutor, A prominent Democrat openly and hotly
declared that the nomination of Sellers insured
a Republican senator from this district Much
disaffection was manifest, and Republicans
seem better satisfied with the ticket than do the
Democrats Out of four frothy speeches, not a
single reference was made to the newly nomn-
ated Democratic Governor. Gray is evidently
in bad odor in this locality.

Indians Starving to Death.

HELENA NJ. T., June 2S-Major Allen, Pie
gan Indian agent of northern Montana, reports
the Piegans dying fast from the scant food sup
ply at the agency. The carpenter furnished
thirty burial boxes in the past month, but it is
believed the deaths are fully thrice that number,
as the Indians have great dislike to burying
their dead, preferring the old custom of placing
the bodies in trees in stone piles on high hills.
The death rate is the greatest among children of
five to twelve years old. Supplies will be
exhausted entirely in another week, and 1900
Indians on the reservation will be left to starve
or subsist on cattle of settlers. Trouble is
faared

THE '.wHITE LADY"
A .Premonition Of Death In the o-rmsa
Imperial Family.

Imperial Family.
A few nights ago the famous "wcisse
Dame" or White Lady. the spiritus
fdmihdris Of the Hohcnzollern family,
Is reported to have been seen by the
sentinels before the Alto Schloss in Bcr-
lin. Notwithstanding their profound
skepticism. most Berliners strangely
enough. still believe the story Of
the White Lady. The capital
is quite excited over the pretended ap-
pnriation. All are talking about I, and
wondering what member Of the dynasty
is next destined to die.
The White lady is u ghost who has
frequently been seen in different castles
and palaces belonging to the royal
family Of Prussia. She IL sup
posed to forcbode the death OF some OF
the royal family, especially one of tho
children. Her last appearance was In
1879, just prior TO the death Of Prince
Waldemar. A soldier on guard Al the
old castle WAS witness Of tho apparition,
and in his fright fed to the uard-room,
where he was at once arrested for de-
serting his post
Twice she has been heard 10 speak:
In December. 1923. she appeared In
the palace at Berlin and said, In Latin,
II walt for judgment. Again at the
castle Of Neuhsns, In Rohemia when
she said to the princess, In German,
''It is 10 o'clock" and the lady ad-
dressed died in = few weeks.
There are two white ladies In fact
one the Countess Agnes Of Orlamunde,
who Is referred to BY our Berlin corres-
pondent. and the other tho Princess
Bertha Won Rosenberg, who lived In
the fifteenth century. The former was
buried alive in vault in the palace.
She was the mistress Of . Marprave Of
Brandenburgh. by whom she had two
sons. When the prince became Wild
over Agnes thought he would marry
her, but he made the sons an objection,
and she poisoned them, for which
crime she was buried alive. Another
version Ia that she 1sll in love with tho
prince Of Parma and made way with
her two daughters. who were an OBJ
stacle to her marriage. for which she
was doomed 70 walk the earth" ~ an

A process has recently been perfected
in France for saving and cleaning the oil
that is taken from the wool of sheep in
cleansing. 1t is very valuable for lubri-
eating purposes. The fine-woolsd sheep
have wool which is very rich in oil, but
it has hitherto been regarded as SO much
waste and detracting as much from value
of the fleece as an equal weight of dirt.
Wooden ties Tor railways are becoming
more expensive every year, and the time
is coming when possibly some substitute
viii have to be devised for them. The
chief engineer of the Reading railroad is
about to try some experiments with steel
ties. They would be the same in size and
shape as the present wooden ties, except
that they would be hollow; anil they
would practically last until they rusted
away, while the best oak ties last only
about eight years. Some of the, advan.
tages claimed for the steel tics are that
the expense of maintaining Ghe track
would be reduced, the road bed would
be firmer and smoother, and trains could
run at much higher speed over them.
The wear and tear on track and rolling
stock would also be lesseneds because the
track is smoother. For these reasons
trains could run faster without increasing
the expense proportionately.

The Organ Grinder's Profits.

You sympathetic ladies who send
nickels and silver pieces by a servant to
the poor organ grinder who stands at
your door, OF who throw down to him
from an upper window pennies wrapped in
thick writing paper, may like to know
how much the man gets in the course of
the day, and what he does with his
money For the latter he does not spend
more than seventh part of it. He puts
it in bag and then in long, low chest
in his room. to save till he has enough to
go back to Southern Italy and live at his
ease. More often he joins every night a
select club of ow-countrymen, who
stack up their organs at the end of the
room, and gamble, gamble the pennies
away in long and delicious excitement.
How much, think you, does he earn
More than carpenter, or abricklayer, or
policeman, or postman, or a
salesman in store, who wears gloves
and silk hat He averages 81 day.
He labors Systematically, and has his
regular beat, and his varied art to ex-
tract the penny from persons of each
class he plays before. AS he expressed
it himself in a moment of rare expansive
ness, he "plays on 200 blocks every day,

The carp.

The carp is the best pond fish yet
known, and in very small pond will
thrive well, SO that families in the coun-
try may easily have their own fish garden,
if they have enough water to make per-
manent pond. The fish will thrive on
table refuse and almost anything edible.
Carp can be kept in winter in tub in
the cellar, the water requiring to be kept
fresh Care should be taken to keep
poisonous substances out of carp ponds
and too much food should not be thrown
In. The carp roots about in the mud for
aliment, and much resembles poultry in
its manner of getting food. Carp aged
three years are often found to weigh from
twelve to fifteen pounds, and gain in
weight of four pounds has been observed
in carp in one year. The carp is slug
gish, while trout, bass. and other lively
fish frisk about, and do not fatten SO fast
as the carp. Experiments have shown
that female carp spawn at the age of one
year in Southern waters, at two years in
colder waters, and in the extreme North
ern waters Of the United States at three
years.
