Be CAREFUL

"There's luck in leisure.
How many sit to-day in sack
cloth of Disappointment and
ashes of Despair because they
acted too hastily! Without
due consideration, how many
have contracted life alliances
which make them remember,
too late the truthful saying
"Marry in haste and repent at
leisure %
The same holds good in the
relations of business life.
How many have bought
homes without examining the
title, and awake to their mis-
take at the end of a costly
lawsuit E! How many have
moved into houses without
careful investigation of drain
age, light and ventilation, and
realized their error only when
confronted with a Doctors
bill
Acting on the experience
gained by many years of busi-
ness in Napoleon, a length of
time that gives a thorough ac-
quaintance with the wants of
Henry County's good citizens,

changing, hence it is your
privilege to select from the
very latest;-they do not at
tempt to work off on you
''back-number" goods.
Drugs and Medicines. Paints
and Oils, Books and Station

of their business, each and ev-
cry one Of which is complete.
If you are sick and wish to
be treated by doctors pre-
scription, Saur & BaIsley will
compound the medicine from
absolutely pu.'e ingredients; or
should you desire a patent
medicine, this House has just
what you want.

In one respect political conditions
in Indiana are without a parallel in a
year In which president, governor
and legislature are to be elected. 1t

parties have only opened their re-
spsctive campaigns. Before harvest
In former presidential years the state
has been red hot, politically, from the
rivers 10 the lakes. The appear
ances, however, are somewhat decep-
tive. The unnatural calm is but the
lull before the storm. Proceedings
are already in progress which III due

fury and in6ame the state with pas
sions littlo short OF civil war. The
republicans this year are not depend
ing on speeches or literature to ac-
complish results. The usual fusil-
lado OF big and small bores will in
deed take place. There will be beat
ing Of drums, rafting OF cymbals aud
other discorlant clumor of partisan
warfare. Theses, however, are only
surface demonstrations. The heavy
guns are held in reserve to be dis
covered only rs masked batteries.
The open attack on the democrats is
but feint; the real onslaught is to be
a process OF sapping and mining. In
due time light will be touched to
the sub,erranean fu!e which will ex-
plode a mine that honey-combs every
corner OF the state. The rebound will
be tremendous, but the managers con-

JUDGES AS rARr1sANs.

There was a time when il this
paper or any other paper had an
nounced that the state supreme court
had agreed months in advance how it
would decide particular question,
not vet before it, there would have
been shudder OF alarm throughout
the commonwealth. To-day, though
made advisedly, the announcement
creates scarcely ripple OF excite
ment On the contrary it is received
as matter OF course, co deadened
has the public conscience become by
familiarity with partisan abuse Of
power and the fact that higher Off
Gals serve party first and the people
only secondarily. II there be ling
ering hope that the judiciary is an
exception 10 this rule the delHsion
may as we'll be dlspelled. The deadly
virus has reached the bensh as is
amply proven by occurrences now
passing before us. Within the month
lusU closed Judges Of the supreme
court have secretly caucused with u
partisan committee concerning tho
disposal OF a suit soon TO be brought
before them. Startling as this state
ment Is, tho occurrence is not with
out precedent. II is not the first time
that an Indiana supreme court has
rendered a decision for political pur-
poses by prearranged agreement. The
defenders of the present tribunal who

1t Is little consolation to the citizen
who breads, above all things. a parti-
san judiciary, to tell him that in the
former case the court was democratic
and in the present instance republi-
can. The danger arises from the
possibility OF its being done by any
court under any circumstances. If a
corrupt Judiciary is upon US that
supreme curse is in no degree palli.
ated by q change OF party labels.

Between t. Empcreur Francois

republlcanism is no less menace tc

the guise OF democracy. The mer

standard OF the harlot to rally to the
standard OF the thief, simply changed
his leader without changing his prln'

A Child Made Very Sick By Drinking
 Kerosene Oil.
 The two-year-old son of Mir and Mrs Ernest Fash, German family of Birmingham, during the absence of his mother, yesterday, got hold of can which was well filled with kerosene oil. His mother had gone upstairs for few minutes and was called down by the cries of the little fellow, who seemed to be in great agony. She was at loss to understand at first what the matter was, but, detecting the odor, tested the child's breath and found that it was well savored with the oil. Dr Loomis had been called immediately after the discovery by the mother, and the physi- clan managed to do considerable toward saving the little fellows life. He is quite weak, but will recover.
 Joseph Gates, one of the. most promi- inent men in Columbia, was found dead in the woods in that town, last night.

 The officials of the New York 6 New England road have placed the responsi- bility for the dual accident of Monday morning near Wheaton's and Hancock's on Engineer Schaeffer. He was in charge of the freight train which left Waterbury at 5:4O a. m. for Hartford It appears that when the freight train parted near Wheaton's he concluded to reach the rising known as the summit, which is at the top of the grade. He was scheduled to be there at 6:30. To accomplish this he cut his engine loose from the remainder of the train and or dered the crews to hold the cars on the grade with the brake. He then started along with his head brakeman. Soon after starting he concluded he would not be able to reach the siding in time and left the head brakeman on the track to flag trains approaching from the west. During his absence the cars which he had left standing on the grade started down grade. The officials of the road say he should have known that the cars could not be left with safety until the end of the grade was reached.

 The committee was delegated to bring the matter before the dis trict committee at its meeting tonight.
 A communication was received from J. M. Taylor, instructor in manual train ing, recommending the adoption of the Prang system, and Tn relation to the named training course. MT Taylor recommended that pupils taking this course be only those in the first two years at the High school and the eight or next lowest grade. He also recom' naended that, if thought advisable, at, tendance at the manuel training schoo should be made compulsory. The board referred the adoption of the Prang sys tenn to the text book committee anC adopted Mir Taylor's suggestion re garding the grade. They thought il best not to make attendance compul sorry until it was thought necessary. | Chairman Mulcahy, as a member O the committee on.teachers, read repor of the progress in various changes in thu High school as recommended by Prin cipal Hovey.
