A TRIBUTE TO Mr.. WULSIN.
The Musical Age Refers FeeiingIy to
the IndianapOlitan.

The last number of the Musical Age con-
tains an excellent likeness of the late
Clarence Wusin. of this city, together with
an extensive obituary notice, written by the
editor, Harry L. Freund, who says among
other things:
He was a true gentleman, to the manner
born. He lent dignity to his position in life,
and always carried himself with grace and
manliness. He spoke i'll of no man, yet he
had a keen and critical mind, and always
distinguished between right and wrong. He
liked to look well and dress well. He be-
lieved 1t was possible for business man
to be successful. and, at the same time,
TO appear as a gentleman. He thought much
of personal dress, but more of personal
manners. In a select circle OF his devoted
friends he was leader. He was always to
the front in any movement that was likely
to prove OF pleasure or value TO his friends.
He was man OF the times and of the high
est type of the American business man.
which is tie greatest compliment that 1 can
pay him.
Cultivated, refined amiable. Clarence
Wulsin went through life with friends on
all sides because he was worthy of them
He was sincerity itself. which characters
tic associated with his entire career
In the house of Baldwin he took a most
prominent part. He was always at the front
in broadening its plans and developing its
enterprises. and no responsibility was toe
great for his shoulders TO bear. With his
partners, Mr.. ID. II. Baldwin. Mr.. George
w. Armstrong. jr.. and his brother. Lucien
Wulsin. there always existed the strongest
responsive friendship and fid ality to mutual
interest. Ii was a great quartet of four OF
the brightest brainiest ard most successful
piano men in the country. BY the death
of Clarence Wulsin a great gap has beer
made i'm this group of representative men
and his loss will be deplored by his part
ners as much for his lovely personality as
for the valued worth of his work.
At a recent meeting of the Indiana May
festival directors number OF tributes wer,
paid to the memory of Mr.. Wulsin. WHO
had always had the festival Interests al

Staple, BarstapIe.

In Anglo-Saxon the word "stapol,"
"stapel" or "stapul" denoted post or
pillar of wood or stone. In local names
it has various Specifications. Such posts
or pillars were often erected to mark
places where markets were held, or
where merchandise could be exposed for
SALE Such probably were Dunstaple,
in Bedfordshire, market on tho chalk
downs, and Barnstaple, in Devon.
Sometimes the stapel was post mark
ing the place of the hundred moots.
We have hundreds called Barnstaple
and Thurstable in Essex, and one called
Staple in Sussex. There are seven places
called Stapleton, but as none Of them is
a market town they were probably
merely farmsteads marked by a post,
one of them, called Stapledun in Domes-
day, being hill with post. So OF the
nine Staplefords none is marked town,
and they were probably fords marked
or protected by piles or posts. Stall
bridge, Dorset, called Staplebridge in
Domesday, was probably trestle bridge.
Whitestable in Kent must have taken
its name from white pillar, erected
either for market or as guide to
ships entering the harbor, or to which
boats could be moored. Staplehurs'
must have been wood marked by
post, or, like Stockwith. wood where
stumps or posts were left standing. =

She Was Too Sharp For Them.

One day last winter stylishly dressed
woman stepped from coach in front OF
a big dry goods store in New York and
proceeding to the fur department select
ed seal wrap worth $500. In payment
she rendered check for $1,000, which
tho saleswoman took to the Office. A
messenger was dispatched to the bank,
and he was told that the check was
good. Meantime the woman pretended
to be indignant, demanded a return OF
the check, would accept no apologies
and drove away. Presently she returned
and said she had allowed her temper to
overcome her and ordered the cloak
wrapped up. She was given 800 i'll
change and disappeared. A second visit
to the bank disclosed the fact that the
woman had withdrawn the $1,000 she
had on deposit there and that the check
was worthless.

Tho Germ Theory.

What tho world owes to Louis Pasteur
the worlds great vocabulary is incom-
petent to express. Through his re-
searches, and those of the students who
have come after him, the light has been
turned upon what has hitherto been to-
tai darkness. Doubt, experiments and
uncertainty have given way to precision
and accuracy in diagnosis. As the farm
er knows that the chinch bug Is the
cause Of his withered crops, 80 the ply
stefan knows that the bacillus of certain
diseases brings about certain symptoms.
The microscope is the physicians reli-
ance. A few drops of blood, a bit or
tissue, little perspiration brought I'M
der the eye of this magic assistant Will
tell him at once the cause and progress
of the disease. And it is not alone the
physician who benefits by this knowl-
edge. The farmer, the vineyardist, the
dairyman, the stock raiser, the cultiva-
tor of the silkworm and the enthusiast
ON bees are alike indebted to ths dis
coverer Of the germ origin of disease
for inevitable aids in their business. A
necessity Of the near future is an i'm
provement in microscopes and their
cheapening, so that knowledge of germs
may become more widespread. Every
township should have its bacteriologis'
and it's microscopic equipment. There

that is so important to humanity

A session OF the circuit court was held
Yesterday. MIR. A. r.. Gray, attorney for
Mrs. Nelya Clayton, asked for a divorce
for bis client from her husband, John
Warde Clayton. The bill OF complaint
detailed the life Mrs. Clayton led during
the two years she was with her husband,
which was iull OF abuse and threats Of
physical violence. Their relations ended
on his arrest last February on charge OF
numbering his S.year-old daughter. Mrs.
Clayton's. testimony at the trial OF her
husband was similar to that given by
her yesterday in that part relating to his
treatment OF her, but it will be remem-
bered that at the same time it sfavor-

that his treatment OF the little girl was
often characterized by extreme affection,
while at times his passionate temper led

Eohoes From Horses Skulls.

Those curious twists and turns super
stitions take are to be found in the IN
PRODUCTION of horses skulls in or about
the church buildings in England and
Scotland, the reason alleged being to
help the sound in church.
This habit is unquestionably relic
of heathenism where an animal was
sacrificed. Some years ago, when an old
meeting house in Edinburgh was pulled
down, the sounding board space above
the pulpit was found to be filled with
horses skulls.
In some parts of England there still
exists the idea that IL a horses head IS

Congressman Bailey. Dress.

Congressman Bailey of Texas thus re-
plies to recent criticisms Of his dress:
81 have always held that society had no
right, by its dictum, TO regulate the
style Of a mans clothes. Ever since L
could afford it, have dres. cd just as
do today. have worn the same black
broadcloth suit, cut in the same style;
the same style Of broad shirt front and
a white tie; the same kind Of collar and
broad black felt hat. / wear these
clothes regardless of the day OF the
week or the hour or Of society's dicta-
tion because / believe they become me,
and they please my wife. There is
rule of society which prescribes that a
dress suit shall not be worn until after
@ O'Clock in the evening. II l chose to
wear a dress suit, would feel free to
put it on in the morning or evening. or
at noon. just as the fancy dictated. 1t
seems to me that the society rule which
attempts to regulate mans dress is
autocratic. The rule prescribing dress
originated in the old customs of the
court nobility. We are simply initiating
these old aristocrats when we bar per-
son out of society because he does not
dress in the fashion. If men showed
more independence in the matter OF
dress, they would soon be able to break
over the society restraints, and after
that anybody could wear whatever he
chose to, so long as he conformed to the
law of the land and wore something.
So far as l am concerned, / shall con
tinue to wear whatever suits me and a
