A MOST difficult case to deal with /,
shat of the highly imaginative child.
he lies not for gain, not to escape
punishment not to accomplish cher
ished purposes but simply because he
cannot help it His imagination is SO
vivid that it is really very difficult
Tor him to discriminate between objec.
tive fact and subjective reality, bs-
tween what he imagines and what he
knows The one is almost and some-
times quite as wildly impressed upon
his mind as the other The ono seems
to him as much matter of fact as the
other. His case is not unlike that OF
one in delirium, whose imaginings are
even painfully real. In delirium tho
partition wall in the mind between OBJ
jectiye and subjective impressions is
broken down; in the case of the mag
NATIVE child the wall has not yet been
built up.

THE government bears no philan-
thropic relationship toward its SER
wants. Faithful service to it should
be rewarded as faithful service OF q
private master is repaid, by honest
wages. To do more is alike unjust to
the taxpayer and demoralizing to the
public employe. who finds himself alb
oolved from the necessity for that care
for the future which all around him
are forced to observe. The great null
titude OF the people are wageworkers
aud enjoy only that consideration
xhich the ordinary employer gives to
those who serve him. 1t were surely
unjust then to ask them in their capac-
ity OF employers Of public servants to
grant privileges which they them
selves in their capacity OF employees,
can not hope to enjoy.

Is plain. The laborers and young
people are full OF the gregarious in

the comparative solitude Of the coun.
try life. They often suffer in the
cities from the want Of steady pay and
employment but once having broken
the tie that bound them to the farm
they never go back. They are the

movement not to be found in the place
they came from. Perhaps one of the
greatest inducements OF town life is
tho chance of rising out of the

THERE is no higher intellectual de.
light than in the creative use OF the
Imagination. 1t is the gift OF the poet,
the painter, the sculptor. the gift that
makes OF art its own exceeding great
reward" The imaginative child feels
this creative power within him and
exercises it as instinctively as he gives
rein to his desire for muscular activ-
ity. II he were grown up and of dis
ciplined mind he would write poems
or novels or record his imaginings
upon canvass. Being helpless child
he takes to lying just as he rides q
stick horse for want of live one.

Adam, n graduate of Rush Medical col
lege, a man of family, who once stood
at the head of his profession in Grundy
county, and DR.. William Boye, a Swede,
who claims to be of noble birth, also a

county seat of Grundy county, charged
with an attempt to rob the bank of
Gardner.
DIR. McAdam makes no denial of his
guilt, in fact he was arrested while try
ing TO drill hole in the vault door and
in the arrest it was found necessary to
shoot and disable his right arm to pre-
vent him from killing his would-be cap
tors. DIR. Boye was arrested an hour
later, but the proprietor of the bank of
Gardner, j. G. Lutz, claims that he was
positively identified as he ran away
from his outpost before the front door
of the bank.
This may be the breaking mp of a
dangerous gang of burglars that has
preyed upon the good people of this
quiet, peaceful little village for many

He Commits Suicide.
ELKHART, Ind, Nov. 24.-Harry Ewes
and his wife, Nellie, came here about a
year ago and for some time have lived
unhappily together A week ago they
separated, taking different apartments,
and she applied for divorce. Last
night Mrs. Ewes and William s. Cooper
attended an entertainment at the opera
house, and upon its dismissal walked
down a cross street about half a block,
when they were overtaken by the
woman's husband, who presented re-
volver, saying ''I'll shoot h out of
you,' and at once discharged two shots
at Cooper, one of them missing him
and the other entering just be-
low the heart and passing up into the
shoulder. Then grasping his wife he
pushed her against a fence and dis
charged two shots at her, one of them
missing her entirely, while the other
made flesh wound in her right hand.
Ewes then placed the revolver against
the right side of his head and shot him
self dead. 1t is thought highly prob
able that Cooper cannot live, as he
suffers greatly and the ball has not
been found.
