Three hundred workmen of the Parry
Manufacturing company assembled yester-
day at 1890 in one of the warehouses to
hear Mr.. Overstreet speak on the issues. In
showed up the silver heresy, proceeding
step by step. He presented as a remedy
such a tariff as will return to the American
people their own markets.. Every man lis
tened intently while Mr.. Overstreet was
speaking without sign of applause until at
the close he spoke of Mckinley. Then the
applause was general and hearty. MIR.
Overstreet spoke an hour, half of it on the
time of the company.
The largest and finest campaign flag
which has been put up this year-the
largest flag in Indiana, is suspended be-
tween the Parry shops and was purchased
by the workmen themselves. 1t is sixty
feet long and bears the inscription showing
that the employees in the Parry works are
for sound money.

GRADES AT FEMALE PRISON.
N. ", System Adopted at In
diana Institution.

A new system of grading the two de-
partments at the Woman's Prison and
Girls R~eformatory, which was suggested
by Mrs. c. M. Walker, president of the
board of managers for the institution, has
been provided. Hereafter the prison de-
partment will have three grades. Those
prisoners who are perfect In their work
and conduct from Oct. l to Jan. l, or for
three months, will be admitted to the first
grade. The system was only begun the
first of this month, and when the three
months have elapsed the women will have
a change of costume from the blue check,
which all Of the inmate of the institu-
ton now wear. The women who gain the
first grade will nave several privileges
which they do not have, such as seeing
their friends oftener and writing oftener.
Those who are not perfect w4ll have to re-
main another three months in the same
sgrade, and those who break the rules or
are disobedient will be lowered to the
third grade, and will not enjoy some of the
privileges they have at present. If there
were room at the R~eformatory some diff
ference in the food served would be made.
room such change cannot be n.ade.
In the Reformatory there is also n grad
ing system. Formerly there were four
grades, but now this viii have three in
stead. Dement'S will for any reason oblige
the inmates to drop, to third grade. while
to the first. The school has heretofore had
guards of honor. These are girls who can
be trusted. They wear white aprons. There
are six girls who have not had a single de-
merit for a year. and Miss Kelley. the SUI
perintendent, thought that such conduct
should be rewarded without a wait of an
other three months, and these girls have
white braid sewed to their blue gowns.
At the institution at Elmira, n. Y, this
system OF grading has been put into use
and found to be a success, and recently it
has been put into operation at the prison
at Jeffersonville. Dement'S have a greater
effect on the girls than any other kind nf
punishment. Excellent behavior gains good
marks, and in this way many work OFF
their old demerit scores by being extra
good. With the change of dress or some
thing to work for, there is a renewed in
and girls. IT is the intention of adding to
the system in time.

BY yesterday afternoon some of the Pop

We must admit that the supernatural

After all, marriage is 4 contract,
and the parties to the contract are
bound TO keep its provisions, and
neither should Be released from
such contract unless in some way
the interests in society areinvolved.
I would have the Law 80 that any
husband could obtain ! divorce
when the wife had persistently and
flagrantly violated the contract,
such divorce to be granted on equit-
able terms. / would give the wife
q divorce, if she requested It, if she
wanted it.
And / would do this not only for
her sake. but for the sake Of the
community, Of tho nation. All
children should be children Of love.
All that are born should be sincere
ly welcomed. The children of
mothers who dislike or hate or
loathe the fathers will fill the world
with insanity and crime. No wo-
man should by law or by public
opinion be forced to live with man
whom she abhors. There is no
danger of demoralizing the world
through divorce. Neither is there
any danger of destroying in the
human heart that divine thing
called love. As long as the human
race exists men and women will
love each other, and just so long
there will be true and perfect mar
rage. Slavery is not the coil or.
rain of virtue.
/ make a difference between grant
ing divorce to a man and divorce

A woman bowers her husband With
her youth and beauty. He should
not be allowed to desert her because
she has grown wrinkled and old.
Her capital is gone, her prospects
in life lessened, while, on the con-
trary, he may be far better able to
succeed than when he married her.
AS rule, the man can take care of
himself, and, as rule, the woman
needs help. So I would not allow
him to cast her off unless she had |
violated the contract.
But for the sake of the community,
and especially for the sake of the
babes, would give her a divorce
for the asking.

When the Clock Stops.

Did you ever try doctoring clock
that wouldn't go with kerosene?
If not, try it the next time your
timepiece ceases to tick. The eff
feet is admirable, the method SIM
pie. If it is clock the oil will
not injure-of metal, wood, china
or marble-place it in a. bowl and
pour about pint of oil into the
back. Place it face downward and
let it stand over night. Even if
the face be of paper and gets COM
pletely soaked with the oil it will
do no harm. The kerosene will
evaporate within a few days and
leave it perfectly clean. If, after
this treatment, the clock will not
60, it is because there is something
radically wrong with it. Some es-
sential part must be broken. A
little fancy enamal clock given as
Christmas present two years ago,
and which had never run over six
hours at a time. when subjected to
this treatment few weeks since,
has taken to behaving itself like a
well.conducted timepiece. A French
clock which had not gone for years
suddenly took to keeping time after
its kerosine bath, and a common
little nickel-plated alarm clock that
had apparently served it's allotted
term, that had lost its glass and
become generally battered, started
into renewed life and usefulness.
The theory is very simple, of course.
The kerosene cleans the works and
removes any clog of oil and dust
that may be interfering with the
machinery. If you.have any doubts
about the efficiency of this treat
ment, try it On an old and inexpen-
sive clock first. It cannot possibly
do any harm, however.
