An interesting section in the Con-
gressionol Library, at Washington,
and an innovation for that institution,
will be d section devoted entirely to
books for the blind. This is an idea
that Librarian Young has had for
some time, aud he has set the wheels
in motion to bring about its early
achievement in fact There were
many volumes in the raisod-letter type
in the old library, but, like many other
good things, they were not available
to those they were intendedfor. These
volumes, together with others now be,
ing purchased, will soon be placed in
a separate section in the new library,
and every facility will be afforded tc
the blind who would read. A cata.
logue is now in course Of preparation
also in the raised-letter alphabet
This will contain the titles of nearly &
thousand books.

Not al the gold in the world is in

World, that 100 pounds of pure gold
has been buried ever since the seven

on their way to New Orleans from the
Great Lakes concealed it near an old
oak tree. Both men died, and as the
Indians feared the spirits Of the dead
men, the gold was never searched for.

The National Department Of Labor
has just issued a bulletin reporting on
tho public bath-housa system now 80
firmly established in Europe. It
shows that the movement to provide
baths and wash-house facilities, which
originated in England in 1912, has
spread widely in Great Britain and on
the continent and has not yet spent its
force. In Germany the baths are
mostly Of the shower-bath type, which
aye the cheapest and most satisfactory
kind for popular use; and such baths
arc recommended for this country.

A millionaire BY Accident.

The London City Press is responsible
for a story which shows how the con-
fidential clerk of a rich distiller in
London quite unexpectedly found him
self in possession of a fortune equal to
several millions of dollars. The rich
distiller, who was in failing health
made his will, and estimating his for
tune at not much more than a quarter
of million sterling, as a matter Of
business, left the whole Of his property
to his confidential clerk on the terms
that a quarter of a million sterling
should be paid to the executors. The
confidential clerk fell i'll, and another
young man was engaged, and
the distiller simply changed the name
Of the clerk in his will, so that the
deed prepared for the one did service
for the other But when the employer
died the confidential clerk found that
the property had been altogether un-
derestimated. After he had paid the
executors a quarter Of million there
was about a million sterling, or So
100000, left.

Biz Fire At H~untingburg.

At about two o'clock Thursday
morning fire was discovered in the
st. George livery stable, on Geigel
street, Huntingburg, and before i,
was got under control the stable,
with a quantity Of feed and harness,
and some vehicles and four horses,
was burned. The upper story Of
the building adjoining, occupied by
the Huntingburg Bank, was also
Quilted, and about one-third Of the
st. George Hotel, next to the Bank
was also burned. The loss is esti'
mated at $4,000 or$12, 900, mostly
covered by insurance. That seems
to be an unlucky square, one-hall
of it being burned off several years
ago, and never rebuilt.

All Indiana was shocked and
panied last Saturday upon the word
its people that their dis
tinguished ex-senator had died that
morning at his home in Washing
ton City. He was thought to be
getting better, and had written to
Terre Haute that he would return
home this week-and, alas! he did
las a corpse. Saturday morning
about 2 O'Clock he had a return OF
his old trouble, neuralgia, and it
centering to his heart he died about
three hours and a half afterwards.
On Monday the U. S. Senate APP
pointed a committee to accompany
the remains to Terre Haute and out
Of respect to their longtime associ-
ate, adjourned without doing any
business, and attended his funeral
services at st. Johns Episcopal
church, which he and family at
tended in that city, when the fami-
ly. committee, and friends left
Washington City for Terre Haute on
a 2 30 p. m. train.
At the request Of Gov. Mount and
the State officers the body lay in
state in the capitol at Indianapolis
for three hours on Tuesday, when,
escorted by many admirers and
loving friends of all parties, it was
taken to Terre Haute, where it lay
in state Wednesday, and on Thurs
day afternoon the funeral services
occurred at st. Stephens Episcopal
church, and the remains were laid
at rest beside his wife.
Senator Voorhees,, while always a
strong partisan, had as many and as
strong personal friends in the Re-
publican party, as a warm, honest
and generous heart will ever draw
to a man. He never did a man
of any party knowingly a wrong,
and was always generous and
loving enough to forgive in Others
any wrong done to him. AS a
democrat he based his title to the
place on the fact hal he always
supported and voted the ticket reg
ularly nominated. AS an illustra-
ton of this, he was very sore at the
endorsement by the Indiana Demo-
cratic Convention of Horace Greeley
for President, but the day after the
Convention was over told the writer
Of this that eff MI. Greeley was
nominated by the Democrats at
Baltimore, he should vote for him,
though it caused cold chills to run
down his back bone to think of such
possibility, and he was afraid it
would give him the iaundice after
wards" But all Indiana remem-
bers his eloquent speeches for Gree
ley and Brown during the cam
paign-though he privately declar-
ed he could not overcome his repug-
nance.

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty hours; a
sediment or settling indicates an un-
healthy condition OF the kidneys. When
urine stains linen it is positive evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire
to urinate or pain in the back, is also
convincing proc: that the kidneys and
bladder are out of order.

The County SUPPLEMENTARY.

HuNrINGBURG, IND, April IA, '97.
A few days ago, while looking
over some back numbers Of the Jas
per Courier, we noticed an article
which says that our present worthy
County Superintendent will not &C.
cept the office another term. Part
Of the article read as follows:-
"In the main Mr.. Wilson has filed
the position as we'll az any one in this
county would, and tile educational inter-
ests of the county have advanced decid-
edly during his Superintendency, and
with som needed amendments to the
law, ~whichwould give superintendent
more direct power, and then hold them
more directly responsible for any
defects-there could have been still
further advancement. But he informs
the editor of the COURIER" that he
will not accept another reelection
after this term expires, as he designs
taking a collegiate graduating course
after the present term OF Office ex-
pires. So all the other aspirants, and
any Others who want to enter the list,
can begin making pleasant weather with
the township trustees, for IL the mex
Legislature does not make the office an
elective one by the people-which there
is some talk of-the present trustees will
elect Mr.. Wilson's successor a year from
next June. Issue Of Sept. 9th, '95.
Inasmuch as Mr.. Wilson has
avowed that he will not accept an
other reelection, it occurs to us tina,
the time has come when candidates
for this important Office should an.
nounce themselves, so that the PEG.
