4 Song of Life,

n 'fVff- vi NNfNs
Roll the old world ever right. dear
Sun by day and stars by night, dear;
Here is rhyme and here Is reason:
Still the red rose comes in season:
In the fields the tollers sowing.
Hear the harvest bugles blowing;
Life, my dear, is joy and weeping
Sowing time and time for reaping.
Take thy task-if joy or sorrow;
Still the dark will bring the morrow.
In the storm the birds are singing
And the bells of heaven are ringing!

coffee, the conservatives with a prop
erty stake in the country were bound
to get the worst Of 1t without reference
to who might win or lose in the military
operations that will follow the rainy
season. Then such an heroic test Of
their loyalty to the Spanish crown
touched them in that tenderest Of all
places, their pockets.
Weyler insists that the situation calls
for the sacrifice he proposes, and that
the planter who kicks is disloyal to the
declaration from the captain general
the conservatives have asked the Mad
rid government to recall Weyler. inti-
mating that If it became necessary to
get rid of him in that way they would
deport him, whether he wanted to go
or stay.
Now the news comes from Madrid
that the Spanish government sees no
reason to comply with the insolent de-
mands of the conservatives, and that
Weyler has been directed to prosecute
the war with all severity. Obviously,
the Cubans who have thus far chung to
their Spanish allegiance are left to
make good their proposed resort to
force to rid themselves of the obnoxious
commander. OF course, an attempt at
anything OF the kind would be eGuiva-
lent to as open rebellion as the insur-
gents have been guilty of, and the con-
servatives are not likely to so to such
lengths in the send-off. But in any case,
they will be rebels for all the practical
purposes of making it hard shedding for
Spanish authority.
With this important party in sympa-
thy with them it is certain that the reb-
els will make rapid progress when ac-
tive hostilities are resumed.

THE OWENS CHILD.
Mother Must Sue the People to Whom
the BOy Was Given.

In the Circuit Court yesterday morning
Judge Brown overruled the plaintiffs OBJ
lection to the return made on the writ of
habeas corpus in the case of Mary Oster-
man against the Indianapolis Orphan Asy
lum and others. The case may now come
trial on the merits of the writ and the
answer thereto. The case is brought by
Mrs Osterman for the possession of her
child, Willie Owens. In February, 1893,
Mrs Osterman found herself unable to care
for her three children, and placed them in
the Indianapolis Orphan Asylum. Recently
she was married to Mr.. Osterman, and
sought to recover the possession of her
children. Two OF them were surrendered
tC her, and, according to her allegations,
give Willie into her possession and refused
to say where he was. The suit 10 recover
possession by habeas corpus proceedings
was begun.
In the answer to the writ the managers
of the asylum set forth that the child was
left in their care and that the woman
failed to say that she expected to reclaim
course in such cases ana mad found a
good home for the child in Cincinnati. 1t
further alleged that the woman was
not fit person TO have the custody OF the
child
In rendering his opinion Judge Brown
said that the child was now out OF the
jurisdiction of the court, but that he could
deal with the managers of the orphan asy-
lum for contempt. The parent, he said
would have to institute suit directly
against the people who have the child in

MACHINERY At STATE FAIR.
Display of Corn Huskers and Shred
ders VIII BE Unusual.

There is very strong likelihood that
the thrashing-machine combination which
was formed early in the spring by the
thrashing machine manufacturers relative
to the exhibition of their products at the
various State and county fairs is to be
broken and that the exhibition of this
class of machinery at the Indiana State
fair will be all that it has been in the past.
The Geiser Manufacturing Company the
Prick Thrashing Machine Manufacturing
Company and the Marion 90 Thrasher
Manufacturing Company have all signifed
their intention of making displays at the
Indiana fair and their exhibitions will be
larger that anything they have yet given
in Indiana polls. j. A. Van Camp, repre-
sentative of the Geiser Manufacturing
Company, states that his company has al
ways exhibited at the Indiana fair and
that it has never intended anything else.
He is confident that when next week ar
rives there will be almost as complete a
display in this department as ever here
tofore.
Secretary Kennedy. of the State Board of
thrashing- machine exhibits will be made
up in the exhibits of corn huskers and
shredders. There have been many i'm
proVements made in this class of ma
chimes which are practically new to the
agricultural people, and the display will
be unusual one in many respects
W. W. Stevens, superintendent of the
mechanical department. will arrive here
to-day and will complete the assignment
of space to exhibitors in this department.
Owing to the crowded condition of the
grounds he has found it difficult to make
assignments of space where the exhibitors
may make their displays to good advan-
tage.
Secretary Kennedy has received entries
from the owners of five herds of Short
horns. This will be unprecedented
show of this class of cattle at the Indiana
fair. In the livestock department the en-
tries are one-third in excess of those Of
last year
The showmen who have from year to
year given entertainments on the grounds
find themselves restricted to such an ex-
tent this year that they are complaining,
but. the State board is determined that
there will be repetition of the midway
performances and such classes of shows
Neither will there be permitted any freaks
on the grounds which display to vulgar
tastes. The fair will open Monday, Sept
ii, and continue through five days.

MUST SUE THE COMPANY
CITY,S ONLY RECOURSE TO PREVENT
POLLUTION OF WATER.
Contract Which FOrbids the Taking
of supply from the River With
out Councils Permission.

AS soon as City Attorney Curtis returns
to the city it is probable that a suit will
be filed by the city against the water COM
pany It will be for injunction and
probably will have other features, the ma
ture of which not known to any one
but the Mayor and the members of the
Board of Health. This suit has been con-
templated for some time. The court will
be asked to restrain the water company
from taking water from the river except it
passes through filters approved by the
Board of Health.
Tie present contract with the water COM
pany stipulates that it shall not take water
from the river except on permission of the
City Council. and 8 search OF the records
of the Council have failed TO disclose any
record of the granting of such permission,
although it is possible that it has been
overlooked Mr. Davis now claims that he
can draw sufficient water from the deep
wells to supply the city without taking
water from the river, and has asked Dr.
Ferguson TO seal the valve connecting with
the river. The health authorities look upon
this as merely a dodge, for while it is pos
sible that enough water is now flowing
from the wells for all purposes and will
continue to do so until next summer, it is
also believed that the wells would fall far
tEer when the consumption is much great
er than in winter and when the supply is
curtailed. On this account they hold that
the only plan open to the city is to ask
the court TO enjoin the company from TAX
ing water from the river except in case of
q great fire or with the permission of the
proper authorities.
1t will be remembered that last summer.
when the straw board factorys dam broke
and allowed its immense quantity of refuse
to flow into the river, the water company,
or rather Mr.. Davis for the company, de-
MED that the company took any water
from the river and continued to deny it for
several days, finally being compelled. TO
admit that it practically depended upon the
river for it's summer supply. Then later
Mr.. Davis agreed to close the valve con-
Meeting with the river and did so under
promise that it should remain closed until
the pollution was all out of the river. 1t
will be remembered that this promise was
broken Immediately; that the valve did not
stay closed more than forty-eight hours,
and after that was opened every night and
the gallery allowed to fill with the river
water.
1t is these broken promises and misstate-
ments of facts that has caused the Board
of Health to decide that something must
be done which win make a promise from
the water company unnecessary, and an
injunction suit has been decided upon.
