THE LITTLE THINGS THE
MOST VALUABLE.


Comnaratively few people regard them
selves as inventors, but almost everybody
mas been struck, at one time or announcer,
with ideas that seemed calculated TO reouce
some ofthe little frictons of life. Usually
sucb ideas are dismissed without further
thought.

its car windows so that they could DE siio up

thing else. fthey would sit down at the

HOOSIER DOCTORS IN A ROW.
Medical Society Wanted to Punish those
who Advertised.

Indianapolis. Ind, June S-The Mar
ion County Medical Society had a
narrow escape from being suspended
from the State Medical Society today
at the annual State meeting. A half
dozen prominent Indianapolis doctors
were advertised in an anniversary edi-
ton of an Indianapolis newspaper last
winter. Advertising rates were paid
and the matter became the subject Of
considerable criticism throughout the
profession, but the Marion County So
ciety' took no action. Today DIR. Ken
nedy of Shelby county introduced reso-
lutions charging that Drs. Joseph East
man, L. II .Dunning, Henry Jameson.
F. W. Hayes, E. L. Lewis and others
had violated the ethics Of the profession
in resorting to public advertisements.
and asked that the Indianapolis So
ciety be suspended until il should take
some action looking TO discipline of the
guilty members. The local doctors had
been looking for a coup OF some kind
and fought the resolutions until they
were laid on the table. Physicians
from outside Indianapolis declare II
prominent city doctors can advertise
and escape the provided penalties. there
is nothing to prevent all members Of
the profession TO do likewise. II is pos
sible that the disgruntled ones will be
gin to advertise.

Salt Lake. Utah, June s.-The Ore
gon Short Line and Utah Northern re-
ownership case has been argued down
to a point where about the only diff
ference between the contending parties
seems now to be whether there SHAH
be one or two receivers appointed.
The Union Pacific still insists on an
associate receiver. while the loan COM
pany maintains that such appointment
would defeat the whole purpose OF the
separate receivership because of the
brief time which would be given to
raise the money to be paid. until July l.
Mr. Strong, in continuing his argu-
ment this morning, insisted that the
American Loan and Trust company's
only purpose in the litigation was 10
put man in charge Of the Short Line
who would guard its interests in re-
lation to other roads and not be on
both sides of the same question.
The company had only until July
in which to raise over 81. 400, 900 to meet
defaulting interest on the first mort
cages. The purpose of the other side
was to secure notifications Of the or
der so the loan company would have TO
go back to Judges Gilbert and Sanborn
and cause delay so there would be no
time before July / TO raise the money.
He referred to the condition of the Ore
gan Railway and Navigation company,
which had shown in six months a loss
| OF $750.000, and under a new receiver
| had within five months paid the inter-
est and cleared the indebtedness. His
| success was because he was in close
| contact with the patrons Of the line.
AS to the appointment of Mr.. Egan.
ne was man against whom the Union
| Pacific could find no fault and yet they
| ask for an associate receiver. To ap-
point an associate receiver, would be a
| separatio in name and not in fact. and
would be extremely unfair. If the
| court should find Mr.. Egan unsuitable
1t could remove him or associate an
other with him. Mr.. Storey concluded:

We will abide by the result"
| At this point the hearing closed. A
decision in the case is expected on

Franklin, Ind. June S-Class war is
imminent in Franklin College between
the junior and senior classes. The sem
iors have been preparing a class day
program, although they have given the
impression that they would give no ex-
hibition. Today at their rehearsal they
discovered a Junior under the stage TAX
ing notes. They proceeded to kick him
out. He drew a revolver and only
cool heads prevented serious trouble.
The juniors say they know the entire
program. A conflict of forces is in
evitable next Tuesday, class day, and
