In Terre Haute the wonderful discovery has
been made that better police service can be OBJ
tanned with the city divided into fifteen districts,
with one patrolman in each, than in eight with
two in each This is brilliant discovery and in
few years Indianapolis may be induced to
adopt the idea The policeman-the Indianapolis
policeman-is gregarious animal Nobody ever
saw solitary policeman. He has occasionally
been seen in couples but often in threes. fours and
halfdozens. If the Terre Haute policeman is
like him Of this city, he will be afraid to be left
alone at night

On Tuesday afternoon one of the
largest specimens of the Indian race
was in the Z. G. M. |. store. The
boys made bet regarding the nnm-
Der of pounds that were Incorporated
in that huge body. Mr.. Indian, how
ever, declined an invitation to step on
the scales, but a quarter of dollar
was too great temptation, and he
stepped on, bringing them down
at 302 pounds. 1t was said that he
could lift more than two ordinary men,
being tail as well as heavy. In other
words he was indeed noble and in
telligent man.

snatched a single peanut from the
open roaster. The attendant Italian
saw the act, and as quick as flash
seized the lad, to whom he admins
tered vicious kick. A benevolent
old gentleman who had witnessed the
affair demonstrated with "John."
'Why do you kick small boy for
taking one peanut? You ought to be
arrested"
"Dida you somtima sella re pea

"No," replied the old gentleman
with puzzled expression.

"irrepressible," it is the almanac.
Notwithstanding its great antiquity,
it is still important; and though we
grow old, it renews it's youth every
year, and greets us regularly with a
kind of good natured, sHere I am
again!" The oldest almanac in exist
'ence is an Egyptian one, and may be
seen in the British Museum. The
fortunate days are marked in black
ink and the unfortunate In red--a
curious instance of superstition
which European nations have reserv-
ed. 1t contains observations about
religious ceremonies, cautions against
unlucky times, and predictions as to
the fate OF children born on certain
days. Chambers Journal.
1t is reported that branch of the
Southern Pacific Railroad built to a
salt mine in the Colorado desert is
partly ballasted with salt. For
twelve hundred feet the builders were
obliged to grade the road-bed with
beautiful blocks of crystal left by
the ancient sea dried up ages ago.
"rasshoppers of enormous size and
giant centlpedes may be seen lyingin
the salt in which they have been per-
fectly preserved for centuries. So
says the Los Angeles Herald. There
is an interesting fact which quite
parallels this. The part of the South
ern Pacific that was built by Hunting
ton in Washington is supposed to
have been ballasterd and graded en-
tirely with 'sugar."

"TnE people rule, is the vital maxim
of Republics. But the people cannot
rule" says the Georgetown sun, "if they
are inactive and passively submit to the
dictation, or accept the mandates, OF
professional politicians. The people
should attend the primary elections, ex-
press and maintain their views, appoint
and instruct delegates, read and inform
themselves on public affairs, be at the
polls and vote, and exercise all the rights
of suffrage, which they have. II the
people do not pursue this course, they
can simply blame themselves If suitable
men are not elected to office"
