THE DEAREST GIRL.

1t you are engaged or intend t.
be-
Don't be jealous if he casually
admires another pretty girl.
Don't make an ostentaticus dis
play of your engagement ring.
Don't expect all your friends to
think as much of your fiance as you
do.
Don't always have your own way.
Allow him to have his once in a
while. 1t will break the monotony
of the thing if notbing else.
Don't let him spend his money
too freely on flowers and sweets for
you. These may be trifes in them
selves, but they amount up in the
long run.
Don't fail to try your hardest to
win the favor of your prospective
mother-in.law. Let her very soon
see that her son has chosen girl
after her own heart for his wife.
Don't feel hurt ard aggrieved if
his letters do not arrive with the
same unfailing punctuali:y with
which your letters are dispatched.
Nine men cut OF every ten dislike
letter writing. Make up your mind
that your lover is not the tenth.

4 few days ago it was reported
that the plumbers uniop of New
York had declared against the BIZ
cycle, because one plumber on a
wheel could do three times the work
of one afoot. And now comes the
report that the tailors of the east
side, in the same city, are opposed
to the wheel, because it lessons the
demand for their work. People who
ride wheels, they say, do not have
so much need for clothes as those
who do not; that is, they do not
need so many new clothes. There
are some 10000 tailors in New
York, and it is claimed that 5000
of them are partially or wholly out
of work because of the bicycle.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
SEYMOUR. Ind, May 24.-The Democratic
primary election for the selection of a coun-
ty ticket will be held in this county to-mor-
row. The fight for places on the ticket is
the hottest in years and to-day was at fever
heat. The principal fight is on the candi-
date for Representative Hon. Allen Swope.
of this city. who represented this county
in the Legislature of 1888 and 1896 seeks a re-
nomination. His opponent Is Joel II. Mat
lock, OF Brownstown, at present auditor of
this county and also a member of the Dem
ocratic State committee. Mr.. Matlock has
been holding a position in the courthouse
for the past thirty years and is very popular
with his party. He has Issued circular to
the Democrats of the county in which he
asks Representative Swope seven ques-
tions. The principal question is designated
No. in his circular, and reads:
why did he give his influence and vote
to secure the passage of a Jaw over the
Governors veto. when all the other Demo-
Gratis, except one voted otherwise, which
act has caused dissenson and strife among
the citizens OF the county that will last
through the. next generation and will be
menace to the peace and prosperity of the
whole country, and viii lead TO a large
and unnecessary expenditure of money at
time when the people are financially dis
tressed with taxes?'
This question has reference to the Jack
son county courthouse removal bill, and
Mr.. Matlock is enedavoring to gain the
nomination by using the courthouse as
club with which he expects to drive all the
western part of the county to his support
The Democracy of the east end of the coun-
ty will see to it that Mr.. Swopes interests
are carefully looked after Indications are
that the issue which will be fought over In
this county next fail will not be the silver
question or the tariff, but will be renewal
OF the county-seat removal question. At a
late hour tonight IT. is claimed by the
friends Of Swope that he will receive ma
jority of not less than 500 over Matlock

in succession and their superb work was a
revelation to even their friends Taking into
account the disastrous defeat Of the Eastern

would again more than hold their own. Car
ney and Keegan were nervous in the first
two games. and unlucky also. They showed
overeagerness at the start and made bad
breaks. letting their opponents get a lead
that they were unable to overcome. In the
third game the Chicago experts caught up
on tremendous lead of eleven points maxi

pardonable errors let the others run out the
game when II came their hand The two
concluding games were captured by the Chi

thirds of the aces scored by his side The
score by innings for each game was as fol-
