1t is hard TO fathom womans heart.
Especially is this true wheH it is set
upon a certain object, and If that object
happens to be a man. The Winnamac
Republican tells a little story, that in
the past has been repeated with differ
ent people as the participants, 1t says:
at is hard seFstetimes to fathom the
motives that control some people. For
instance there is widow living not
many niles from here who is waiting
to marry a man who has a divorce suit
in the court at the present writing. She
is drawing pension of S12 per month,
an amount that enables her with what
work she can do, to live in comfort, if
not in ease. The man she is waiting to
marry has been married twice, his first
wife was compelled to leave him on ac
count of his brutality and failure to
provide the commOnest necessaries of
life for her support. But short time
after she had secured divorce he was
married to girl in her teens, who was
compelled to leave him in a short time
alleging the same reaaOnS. Now comes
this woman who is ready to leave an
assured support and marry him after
he has shown himself incapable to sup
port wife. Verify, the fools are not
all dead yet.

Deserted it's Mother.

r'aesday forenoon about IL o'clock
while the freight train No. 80 was NOV
ing east Mr.. Sylvester Lovel farmer
living few miles south of town had
just driven up to Thayer's Elevator and
five months old colt had accompanied
its mother also, and the colt seeing the
train running by ran after it crossing
the river bridge, then on to the Michi-
gan street viaduct and not being able to
cross the bridge it ran down the bank,
crossed over to Sophia street still keep
ing up with the freight and meeting it
at the Novelty Works crossing, and
then followed the train down the track
jumping cattle guards and crossings,
until both train and colt reached In
wood. At times the colt would be
close enough that the brakemen could
hit it with broom, but it paid no at
tentiOn to the shouts of the men
who tried to stop him. At Inwood the
colt was caught and put in barn. Mr..
Lovel was telegraphed that the colt was
safe and to come after 1T, which he did
little later on. From the time
the colt left its mother until it reached
Inwood, a distance of six miles, the
time was about thirty minutes.

That Snow Ordinance.

The city codncil at its last meeting
passed an ordinance regarding the
cleaning of sidewalks, that should
meet the appreciation of property
3ners, as we'll as those who are com
PEELED to travel upon them to and
from business.
There is a tendency among few
of our citizens who think the council
in passing this kind of an ordinance
have went to far regarding the clean
ing of walks. The fact of the matter
is the ordinance as passed if properly
enforced will be great benefit to our
city. There has never been time
during the winter season when snow
has accumulated upon the walks. that
as soon as the sun shines short time,
travelling upon the walks is in
a degree dangerous, and greater por-
tiOn of the time pedestrians are COM
pelled to take the middle of the streets
to Insure safety in travel. Then there
are a large number of citizens who
clean their walks which proves but
very little benefit when their next door
nelghbOr fails to do the same. 1t is
good ordinance and our city council
is to be commended for passing it,
and our city will now be superior in
that respect to any OF our sister cities.

The Baby.

\ writer in a neighboring paper says
he cannot see why fond mother will
take baby to church and o'her public
places, to annoy and worry others. He
thinks they ought to be left at home.
They may be, but every mother cannot
leave her baby at home, unless she
stays to home with it, and as it is, a
majority of them do not get away from
home often enough. "There is no place
like home we admit but often wO
man has been shGt up all week in that
come, and she generally feels like 60
ing to church on Sunday, even if she
has to take her baby along. If it is
noisy, it no doubt worries the mother
more than any one else, but we say if
she has no one at home with whom she
can safely leave it, while she attends
divine worship, she should take it
along, in preference to remaining at
home. If either husband or wife have
20 stay at home and keep the baby, we
suggest that the former perform that
duty.

The Tramp Question.

The city councils of neighboring
cities have adopted plan of dealing
with tramps that has proven successful
and might be employed with equally
good results if our authorities would
see fit to adopt the plan. When a
tramp applies for food he is sent by the
citizen to the city marshal, who has in
structions to furnish each tramp one
meal, plain but substantial, if he will
first earn it by pounding rock for two
hours on the city's rock pile. If the
tramp refuses to work he is driven out
of town under the threat of arrest for
vagrancy. The average tramp does not
like the scheme and gives the town
where it is in operation, a wide berth.
The annoyance to citizens is thus great
ly lessened and on the other hand 1t is
good test of the sincerity of the men
who ask for food and claim TO be look
ing for work. If a man is honest and
out of employment he can at least Sc
cure food at all times.

His Name Mentioned,

While there are great many candi

slowed along political lines, there are
others who do not make pretentiOns to
seek an office and yet the political light
ming hunts them out. While in Laporte
last week we heard the name of one OF
our prominent citizens mentioned as a
probable candidate for governor of In.
diana. We were, at that time, too timid
to present the matter to our eaGers, but
as the Mishawaka Enterprise of Nov
29th breaches the subject we will quote
the following:
among all the numerous names pub

q" Bad Eyes,"

An umbrella mender located himself
in our city Tuesday and proposed TO
celebrate the occasion by filling himself
up with "lnjun fire water" and Dy
night was in such a shape that it was
necessary to move his location from off
the streets to the calaboose, where he
became worse and began to climb the
walls, and tried to kick the stove over.
There were a few more of the box car
sleepers in the same place and from the
looks of the poor umbrella mender's
eyes this morning there must have been
time which might put one in mind of
a pugilistic contest. The umbrella
man was badly beaten and gave his
name as Jno Edinger, of Snyder
county, Penn.

Good Mothers.

y deep thinker has gwen some force
full words regarding the importance
of good mothers. He advises the
abandonment of club and the substi-
tuition of training schools for mothers.
lie says: We do not need anything
IN the world so much as good mothers.
As well expect the housekeeper to run
out good batch Of cookies if she
makes them of saw dust and alum, as
to expect the children to develop into
good citizens without the right sort of
mothers The right sort of mother
knows where her boy is all day. She
spends time entertaining him rather
than entertain shallOW-headed callers
from everlasting To everlasting. She
tells him stories, reads to him and picks
out tunes with him on the piano. She
is "chumy" with him, too, and has
his complete confidence. She does
not allow her girls to go TO the depot to
see the trains come in, nor does she
allow them to spend nights away from
the guardianship of their own home.
She is watchful at the same time she
is kind and loving always, but never
languid in the performance of those
duties which the vast responsibility of
motherhood has placed upon her

THE FIRST SATURDAY ISSUE
The Independent for Saturday Night
and Sunday Reading Plenty of
Time to Read the News and
Look up the Good Things
that Wide Awake Ad-
vertlsers Have to
Offer.

Our readers will get the first issue OF
the Saturday SEMIWEEKLY INDE.
PENDENT to-day. The publishers OF
| this paper have heard many cOmmenda-
tory expressions and received many
congratulations Oh the enterprise which
is now giving INDEPENDENT subscrib-
, scrlbers two papers week at the price
of one.
Whether the SEMI.WEEKLY INDE-
PENDENT will be profitable from bus
iness view or not remains to be proven.
1t is not expected that it will be largely
so from the fact that so few semi.
weekly papers are published, which, if
such papers were to he considered as
large paying or even fairly profitable
investments, would not be tie case.
But, as we have said before, we believe
liberal policy leads to the greatest ul-
innate success, 1t is so with liberal
advertisers. 1t is so with broad -gdage,
open-hearted, liberal minded men in all
walks of life the world over This sue
cess may not be made up of thousands
or millions of dollars but dollars do not
constitute the whole of success.
We shall feel largely repaid for our
added labor and expense by simply
feeling that the result is worthy of ap-
probation and is appreciated according
to its merits.
The Saturday issue of the SEMI
WEEKLY INDEPENDENT will reach its
readers at time when it can, by many,
be best appreciated. 1t will reach the
firesides of the homes into which it en-
ters on Saturday and will be at hand
for Saturday evening and sunday per-
usal when it can be read most leisurely
and with the best satisfaction to great
many. INDEPENDENT advertisers, who
are widely recognized as wide awake
progressive business men, will also re-
ceiye careful and more deliberate atten-
tion for the same reason. The tendency
of this will be to enliven the trade of
the ;ore part of the week.
The subscription price of the SEMI
WEEKLY INDEPENDENT will continue
the same as was that of the late weekly
edition. Readers who have friends eth.
er near or distant may have sample
