Country Districts.

D. NJ. Geeting, superintendent of public
instruction, is very much pleased over the
operation of the compulsory education law,
so far as he has been able to observe 1t
over the State.
II believe" said he yesterday, that the
law will have brought not less than 25,OOO
pupils into the schools of Indiana. In this
city, understand it has added about 1,2O0
Reports from Terre Ha1te show an increase
of about 1000 Muncie LOCO, Shelbyville 5OO
Noblesville 300, and thus it goes throughout
the State This is even larger percentage
than any Of us had figured upon. The
township trustees also report consider
ably increased attendance in the schools
This has been brought about simply by the
enactment of the law, by the fact that 1t is
upon the statute books
The work of the truancy officers in
bringing in children has scarcely begun.
The law requires that they shall have at
least twelve weeks schooling in a year, and
it is optional with their parents whether
they have it at the beginning or the close Of
the term.

Was 1t Yellow Fever.
Clinton, Miss.


DR.. r. D. Miller, attending physician on
the four cases of yellow fever in the Ellis
family reported that all were improving to
treatment for ordinary bilious fever.
The first symptoms of bilious, maarial
and typhoid fever are headache, pains in the
back, joints and limbs, nervousness, restless
ness, loss of appetite and coated tongue
being precisely the same as the first symp-
toms of yellow fever, and as this unseasona-
bic weather is sure TO cause an epidemic of
typhoid and malarial fever in the Northern
States, every family should have some sim
pie remedy at home that can be taken when
the first symptoms appear. Probably the
best home treatment to prevent fevers and
remove malaria from the system is Haag's
Liver Pill. The patient should take a dose
of these each night TO remove the undigested
food from the stomach and restore the Sc
cretions TO the liver. Aidneys and intestines;
the following day the patient should take a
dose of Hangs Cold and Fever Capsules
every three hours These capsules quiet the
fever and remove all the germs Of malaria
from the system, preventing typhoid,
malarial and bilious fever.

Like Men with Death Grip.

The Democrats in this vicinity do not
seem to take kindly to the fruits of defeat
The pertinacity with which a Democrat
hangs on to office under any and all cir
cumstances and conditions is illustrated
daily in the federal offices. Since the cleo
ton of Mckinley four federal clerkships,
among the large number in this city, have
been given to Republicans, and the ousted
Democrats are filling the air with their
lamentations. Upon behalf of these gentle
men so anxious to retain their public sal
aries, a number of leading Democrats have
appealed to the Civil-seTvice Commission,
begging it to make a visit TO Indianapolis
in order to prevent the wicked Republicans
from appointing one or two more clerks.

SHE ARRESTED HER BROTHER.
Mrs. GabIer, by a Rinse, Brought Him
to the Jail.

A woman bringing her own brother to Jail
to be locked up on a charge of lar
ceny was a sight witnessed yesterday. The
woman was Mrs. Gabler, who lives on the
corner of State avenue and Orange street.
Yesterday morning she notified the police
that her brother, John Silz, had stolen $24
from her. She kept the money between the
ticks of her bed and was positive her broth
er had taken it, as he alone knew its where
abouts. Detective Richards went to the
house to await the young mans return. In
the meantime Mrs. Gabler had come down
town, and, meeting her brother, induced
him to accompany her on an "errand" on
South Alabama street. 1t was only ruse
on her part, and when they reached the
police station she turned him over to the
bicycle men and had him locked up.

THESE GRADUATES CAN'T PRACTICE.
Ihey Are from American Medical Col

They Are from American Medical Col
lege and Bring Suit.
Eleven graduates of the American Medical
College of Indianapolis brought suit yester-
day in the Superior Court against the State
Board of Medical Registration and Exami-
nation. The plaintiffs are John p. Franz,
Thomas o. Gassoway John w. Neff, Asa
J. Kelsey, Samuel B. Peurman, Purl C.
Plasterer, David l.. Slime, Arthur D. Smith,
George E. Coughlin, James e. Wilson and
John A. Schinack. The plaintiffs say they
each obtained from the Marion county clerk
license to practice medicine. All of the
hncenses except one were granted during
the month of March, 1897. The plaintiffs
continued the practice of medicine and
surgery, and were so engaged when the new
medical law went into effect. July 10, 1897,
they aver, one of the number appeared be-
fore the State Medical Board and requested
certificate as provided by the act of the
Legislature. 1t is claimed that the board
declined to grant the certificate on the
ground that none but those who held
licenses when the new medical law was
passed by the Legislature could obtain
such permit. The applicant, it is asserted,
was then informed that he must come in
on diploma" and when he presented the
diploma of the American Medical College
of Indianapolis was told that it would not
be recognized and he must stand ex-
animation. The plaintiffs aver that as they
We're all graduates of the American Medical
College they decided it would be useless to
apply TO the board for certificates.
1t is claimed that the certificates to grad
yates from the American Medical College
of Indianapolis were recognized during the
year 1896. The further claim is made that
the act of the General Assembly, as it APP
plies to the practicing of medicine, is void
and unconstitutional. The court is asked to
restrain the medical board from in any way
interfering with these plaintiffs until the
cause can be heard. The court is further
requested, in the event that it finds the
act constitutional, to issue writ of man.
damus requiring the medical board to issue
certificates to the plaintiffs.
