REPUBLICAN, SCHEME
New Health Code Will Give
Fat Offices to Two
Politicians.

The Police Commissioners met last
evening az the Board Of Health and passed
the new health code. 1t has forty-nine
sections and its salient features were
given in THE News a few days ago.
One thing Il does is to provide snug
bertns for two plumbing inspectors. The
inspectors who are slated for the rewly-
created offices are ex-Assemblyman James
r. Blackshaw and Edward Moore, w. w.
Farrier's associate Moore spent consider
able money in the spring to be elected an
Alderman. Having failed, his more for
tunate friends nave decided to place him.
The inspectors have not been appointed as
yet, nor have their salaries been fixed.
The offices are fat oneszand several plumb
ers are already complaining that the new
code will give the inspectors too much
power.
The code will become operative as soon
as approved by Mayor Wanser. Thirty
days from hat time every plumber in
the city must register with the Board of
Heath. giving his name, address and
place of business. The plumbers are also
required to file with the Board the plans
of the plumbing for every house in course
Of erection. Accompanying the plan there

the payment of the salaries of the in
spectors. It is not improbable that some
plumbers Will refuse to comply with the
new code and contest the right of the
Board to impose a fee upon them and
compel them to file plans of proposed
work. The members of the Board say that
the code Is adopted merely to prevent
botch work from being done and 20 keep
al sanitary plumbing up to- the proper
~standard. BlaclSshaw and Moore are rabid
Republicans, and Democratic plumbers
seem to entertain the idea that they will
be pounded particularly when called upon
to do public work.
Another cause assigned for the passage
of the now code is to shirt out outside

MARY ANN ROBINSON.

MARY ANN SToBAUGH was born in Washing
ton county. Va. Jan. %, 1890. and departed
this life Feb. 20, 1896. AT the age of four years
she came with her parents Jacob and Ursula B.
Stobaugh to the vicinity of Fillmore Putnam
county, Ind, where she resided until her DEATH
On Dec, 21, 184S she was married to Anderson NJ
Robinson, who was also born in Washington
Co., Va, but lived from infancy in the immedi
ate Deighborhood of Fillmore. and preceded her
to the spirit world only few years since.
To this happy union there were born three sons
and seven daughters. -Four of the daughters
and two sons survive to mourn the loss and cher
ish the memory of a most excellent mother
About the year 1857 she, with her husband
united with the Universalist church. and up to
the time of her death was great lover of its lit
erature and firm believer In its teachings. The
Bible to her was a very sacred book and she de-
lighted to quote and dwell upon those passages
upon which she founded her eternal hope. She
not only believed in Christ but she lived the
Oh list life so perfectly that the entire commun-
ity came to regard her as foster mother to all
who needed her help. She was always averse to
any public display of her good deeds, and went
not abroad to find opportunities of usefulness,
but from her pure. quiet home life she sent forth
the benign influence of her high ideal with such
power as to touch the entire community
A very large concOurse of mourning friends
and relatives attended her funeral from the
Christian church in Fillmore on Sunday morning

Thompson said, but by putting sew
eral things together the trustees of
the church and the Sunday-school
superintendent found out that he
gives Systematically more than 800 a
year out of the 5000 he earns. Mr..
Thompson lives economically, and
has sense enough not to give away all
he earns. He is supposed to be
worth now about 81, 500 beside the
little house he has, which he has paid
for. He does not drink liquor or use
tobacco. If he did hecould not lend
to the Lord as he does. He always
looks neat on Sunday, but throws
away no extra money upon clothes,
and wears an overcoat until it is
worn out.
He would have no surplus for the
Lord, or be able to save a dollar, if
he did not apply all the powers of a
sturdy brain to get the most for his
money, and to spend the least COM
patible with good health upon himself
Mrs. Thompson is of the same way
of thinking, and often says: "Morti-
mer, have you your money ready for
the collection?"- Christian Ad-
IOcnfe.

MARY NJ. CLODFELTER

MRS. MARY NJ. CLoDFELTER was born in
Putnam Co. Indiana, June 10, 1916, and was mar
ried to Matthias Clodfeter In 1889 Shortly af-
ter her marriage she and her husband removed
to Montgomery county and settled in the wild
woods of Ripley township. The struggles and
hardships of pioneer life proved good test to
the courage and fidelity OF this young couple.
Her husband passed to the better life twelve
years ago, whittier she followed him Sunday,
Feb. %, 1896. Her death. although expected,
for some time. was a shock to her friends. She
was conscious to the last, passing away quietly
and peacefully as tired child going to rest.
Mrs. Clodfelter was the mother of thirteen
thiidren, five of whom survive her. They are M.
E. Clodfelter, Mrs. T. e. Ballard, Mrs. E. E. Bal
lard and Mrs. DIR. j. r. Etler, of Charlottesville,
and N. J. Clodfelter. of Indianapolis.
Mrs. Clodfelter united with the Universal
list church at the beginning of her married life,
and lived and died an earnest and devoted
Christian. Her life was a singularly sweet and
beautiful one, and she has exerted an influence
for good the worth of which cannot be over. esti-
mated. AT the time of her death she was a
member of the Fincastle church.
The funeral services we're conducted at the
family residence, February %, by Rev. T. S.
Guthrie and the writer, and were attended by a
large number of friends. Such lives as sister
Clodfelter's are great blessing to the world
and deserve the appreciation of the Master, like
to that which he showed to the woman with the
alabaster box of ointment. 1t was life of tidel-
ity to principle. "She hath done what she

A GOOD DOOTRINAL SUMMARY,

st. Pauls Universalist Church at
Charlottesville, Indiana, issues a we'll
worded invitation in leaflet form to
its regular services, and circulates
them widely in that city. 1t prints on
the first page the Profession of Faith
and expounds the Universalist belief
in the words which follow. We are
glad to present it as an excellent
summary of the doctrinal teachings
of our church:
In harmony with this statement of be-
lief. we teach; Q)-that the Bible is su-
preme authority in matters of faith and
duty, and that it can be truly interpre
ted in perfect harmony with the highest
reason and the deepest human expert
ence; (2)-That God is, and ever will
be the loving Father of the whole hui
man race; 81 That Jesus was not one
of three gods, but the Son of the one
true God, and that he taught the per-
feet truth and lived the perfect life; H.
That the atonement of Christ is not
in that he suffered the punishment due
to the sins of men, but in that he is
bringing the world into at onement with
God, by teaching all men to love God
supremacy and their fellow beings as
themselves; (5)-That there is just and
certain retribution for every sin. HE
that doeth wrong shall receive for the
wrong that he hath done; and there is
no respect Of persons" (Col. iii. 25.):
(6).-That Salvation is not an escape
from punishment. but is the bringing of
our lives into harmony with the laws of
God; (0-That by means of the perfect
government of God, and the influence
of the life and teachings of Jesus, all
souls will finally yield a willing obedi-
ence to the one supreme law of Love,
and the entire race become holy and
happy; (S)-That no soul can be happy,
either in this life or in the life to come,
except as it yields obedience to the Su-
preme law as summed up by Jesus:
"Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with
all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and
with all thy mind. This is the first and
great commandment, and the second is
like unto it,-Thou shalt love thy neigh
Dor as thyself. On these two command
ments hang all the law and the proph.
ets." Matt. xxi. 37-40)

There is more Catarrh In this section of the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For great many years doctors pro-
n0unced it local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure by
local treatment. pronounced it incurable. Sci
ence has proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and, therefore. requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure manufactured
by F. j. Cheney & Co.. Toledo. Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses of from 10 drops to a tea
spoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood and mu-
