THE lRON.HALL FUNDS.
A Statement That Indicates an Early
Distribution.


The members Of the Iron Hall in Rich
mond and Manchester will read with in
terest the following statement made by
the Judge OF the Indianapolis Court at
the conclusion OF tbs argument In the
receivership case this week:
This case has been well tried. There
has been no limitation upon your ener-
giles l. now stands upon the request OF
the defendant that the Court make spe-
clal finding OF facts from the evidence i'm
the case. That l am ready 10 do. Still
l want the finding on these facts to be as
acceptable 10 both sides as possible. and
10 that end l ask each Of you TO prepare
such a special finding as you see tit.
will ask YOU TO agree as far as possible
upon the facts that are found. The facts
upon which you agree ] will adopt Upon
questions where you disagree | will de-
eide Within twenty-four hours after I
make the special findings. | VIII make my
conclusions ut law. There has been no
haste in this trial do not think ] have
made any mistake or committed any
error In hearing the evidence that has
been introduced
WILL MAKE HASTE
From now on shall be earnest to make
haste. This is not an orphans court.
but yet ] think ought to take notice that
among the 5000 people interested there
is many a widow and many a ward. Only
few days ago one OF the most honored
members Of this bar said to me he saw
an old man below in the treasury crying
bitterly because he could not pay his
taxes. and the burden OF his complaint
was that he had $1,000 tied up In the Iron
Hail. | mean by haste that / will have
no child nor woman hungry at my door
this winter by reason OF the unnecessary
detention OF this fund. If the Court turns
this money back 10 the order, II will be
relieved of It's duties, and the Court will
feel that II is not bound to any record TO
the widow. the ward. and the old man.
CONCERNING THE RECEIVERSHIP
On the other hand. II the final deC'ee
shall be that this receiver is 10 be made
permanent, my first order TO that receiver
viii be 10 prepare for distributiOn--to
gather in ana to distribute. / understand
that even II that should he, there Is the
conclusion that there are different in
terests here. one man stands upOn one
right. and one upon another. II this fund
can not be distributed by one bite. IL
may be by two. We may preserve the
right OF the man who stands for 81 00)-
he certainly has a right. to the $3.50, or
what he has paid In. and the man who
has paid In SEQ has a right 10 that There
are difficulties, but yet I say that there
are 1000 men In this city. who. having
their commercial credit at stake would
think sixty days an iDtolerably long time
To distribute this money or turn Il into
It's proper channel Shall we be less
Jealous OF the administration OF Justice
In Indiana than "A private concern would
be for its commercial standing and credit?

Please publish formula by which the
ordinary housekeeper will be able to
determine what is and what is not oleo-
margarine. butterine, etc. SALAD.
The simplest and readIest method Of
determining oleo fat, in what is called
spurious butter, Is to burn spoonful
or more upon the stove. In burning.
"acrolein" Is liberated. having a very
disagrecable and Irritating odor, which
induces much coughing. Butter alone VIII
not produce this effect
This we learn from the United States

"sehool Butter" Origin of the Expression.

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
What is the meaning of the term school
buttep. and how did it originate?
PATRON.
We have made diligent search in all
the sources Of information accessible TO
us and have not been able TO get any
thing at all satisfactory as to the origin
OF this expression. We find that the
term seems not TO be known in the cities
to any considerable extent. but is con-
fined mainly to the country. Its origin is
shrouded in mystery. One authority
thinks IL is a defiance, meaning essen
TALLY 81 can lick your teacher and all
your scholars"
Another thinks II originated m an In
vidious comparison between schools
my school is better than your school
shortening into "school better" and this
degenerating in careless mouths to
"school butter"
