SHE CARRIED A BIG ROLL.
How a Lady Visitor at indianapolis
Helped the state Treasurer
of INDIANA.

Two finely dressed and handsom,
women while sightseeing il Indianapo-
lis q few days ago visited the state
treasurer's office, accompanied by Col.
Wilson, who was showing them through
the statehouse. State Treasurer Scholz
showed the visitors the inner vaults,

state treasurer concealed his amuse-
ment at the idea of his fair visitor as
he replied: Well, hardly as much as
we would need. I fear"
About how much would you re-

Well. we need something like $4,000

which he thought coming.

piled the lady, calmly. Have you p-i'

The state treasurer looked aston.

out. and politely pointed TO retiring

The door was closed and the state

The MAD DOG BUGABOO.
Scientists Insist That There IL Nc
Such Thing az "HydrOphobia"-
Women NeeGIes<Iy Alarmed.

What the newspapers so essentially
report as cases of ''hydrophobia" are
in reality. nothing more nor less thar
instances of people who have been bit
ten by dogs ard frightened into hys
teriCaI conditions in which they in
voluntarily reproduce all the supposed
symptoms OF ~hydrophobia." 1t is 4
pity that our newspaper editors cannot
have more careful regard for the feel
ings of women during the summer
months and agree 10 suppress the re-
ports Of eases supposed 10 be hydro
phohia-" They make the public mind
nervous, and do more TO spread the
silly notion OF belief in ''hydrophobia"
than anything else. Women have had
their feelings played upon long enough
by this foolish notion OF "hydrophobia,-
and enough unnecessary suffering has
been inflicted upon the dog, who i
often killed for nothing but popular
fallacy. II Is high time that common
sense should rule; that we should be.

as 'hydTophobia," and rid ourselves OF

ed enthusiasm and steps were taken A.
once to make The proper arrangements.
That Jerry and Ole should be among
the champions selected for the occasion
was considered so much of q foregone
conclusion that the originator of the
great scheme disdained 10 mention il
except Indirectly by proposing that
these two poker giants should be al
lowed 10 choose their own assistants.
Il was to be 'freeze-out" game, each
participant starting out with 50
matches
On the fateful evening Jerry's store,
which had been favored by the lot, con-
tanned all the big" men of the two
towns and as many of the plain citizens
as could get inside the doors. AT the
furthermost end of the store, behind
the big stove, there was a clear space
large enough for the table and the
chairs 10 be used by the players and the
guests Of honor, while Tom. Dick and
Harry were sitting on barrels. roos;ing
on the counter or standing on the floor.
All eyes were centered on the table and
its four players-Ole, Jerry. Hank Carl
son and Dick Casey.
Ii was very tame affair 10 begin
with, no one being willing 10 find him
self left out al the very beginning Of
the game
AT length the situation had is due
effect OF the two victims. Carlson and
Casey began 10 feel important and grew
reckless in corresponding degree. Some
insignificant gains made them believe
that the fates Of Sinona and DupOnts-
Vile would be settled by them and not
by their famous fellow-players. Bets
increased in size, antes were raised, and
the limit was touched on the slightest
provocation 4 few bad bluffs, skill
fully called by Jerry and Ole, settled
the matter. About TWO hours from the
beginning OF the game Carlson and
Casey had only a dozen matches to-
ge;her 10 place between themselves and
the approaching cold wave. What they
had lost was almost evenly divided be-
tween Jerry and Ole.
Then came the great crash. So fan
the hands had been rather poor, and
few good draws had been made. But
hardly had the cards been dealt this
time when everyone could see that
something was up. 1: was Jerry's dea!
and Ole'S ante. Carlson put up his last
few matches with pretended hesitation.
Casey raised him two, that being the
extent of his resources. Ole and Jerry
stayed in.
Ole stood pat. Carlson drew two
cards. Casey asked for TWO also, and
Jerry declared himself satisfied with
one. The betting was restricted 10 Ole
and Jerry, of course.
Jerry bet the limit. Ole saw him and
raised him ten.
Ten, and ten more" was all Jerry
said.
Il go you and raise you as much
again." said Ole. his voice beginning 10
tremble with excitement, while the
spectators did not dare 10 move hand or
foot.
Same here" was Je-ry's quiet re-
mark, as he counted out 20 matches.
- folIow-ten and ten said Ole.
well, all have left now is IL said

GROWING POVERTY OF INDIA.
ury" of Alien Government and
Alien Exploitation.

Thus one sees that the population of
India, a most fertile country inhabited
by most frugal people, increases at
slower rate than that of many countries
in Europe. at about the same rate as
Japan, and at d slower rate than that
OF many native states within it's own
borders; that India suffers under pow
trty which is continually increasing:
that the signs of this poverty are to be
found in districts where the population
Is even diminishing: that of the other
states with which one has compared it,
though representing q great range of
civilization and prosperity. some rich
and some poor, none shows so hopeless
a degree of poverty; and that. neverthe-
less, one Is asked TO consider the in
crease of its population as the main
source of its misery-the one obstacle
which thwarts the good intentions of
beneficient and enlightened govern
ment.
Finally, when one hears of ~over-pop-
ulation" as cause of Indian poverty,
is it meant that the people are too
numerous for the land to supply them
with food? Food is exported from India
every year, so that cannot be the mean
ing. Is it meant that they cannot pur-
chase foreign goods having. in conse-
quence of the pressure of numbers, to
expend all their energies in raising
food? The export of raw cotton, opium,
and 1ute is sufficient to pay for the cot
ton goods, which are the only foreign
manufactures the mass of the Indians
use. The Indians need no foreign lux
uries; they export food. and vet one is
told there is 'over population" But
there is one thing one has forgotten.
There is one foreign luxury, the most
expensive of all luxuries. and in that
the people of India are forced to indulge
the luxury of alien government and |

MONEY AND PRICES.
There Are Only Two Parties to the
Money Question, the Debtor
and the Creditor.

D. T. Allen, the well-known reform
advocate, has an excellent article in the
Olean Journal. of Olean, n. Y, on
Money and Prices, from which the fol-
lowing extract is taken:
Now If prices were doubled there
would be an increased demand for the
product of the mill because the people
would have more money TO buy with.
Take the farmer, for instance, whose
income at present prices is, say, $500
year, and whose fixed charges-inter-
est, taxes, etc, are likewise $500 year
He cannot purchase single yard of
cloth at any price and pay for it, but
double the prices of all product, and
he could purchase $500 from the man
ufacturer and pay cash for il, which
would benefit not only the mill owner
and employe, but would give the farm
er chance to pay his debts and enable
him TO buy $3.50 worth of goods at pres
ent prices and pay $500 or double the
present price for it, and furnish hi
family thereby with few comforts and
necessaries of life. which would GER
tainly be preferable to a cipher.
Dozens of extracts from campaign
documents might be given did space
permit. showing that there is no differ
ence of opinion on either side as TO the
effect of more money-all agree that
doubling the volume of money will
double prices. The gold gamblers,
however, claim that this would be
ruinous to the productive interests of
the country, though they are using
every effort, lawful or otherwise, to
keep their holdings to the highest point,
and are so sure that they are right
from a financial standpoint that they
first demanded high priced coin in pay
ment for obligations purchased with
cheap paper, and now are demanding
the highest priced money in the civil
lied world.
Now there are only two parties to
this question, the debtor and the cred
itor. and the only way debts can be
paid is by the sale of the products of
labor; therefore, the debtor must be the
producer. and the price of his effort is
measured by the price of the product he
creates. And as debts and taxes are
fixed charges against the producer, he
is forced every morning to go upon the
market with his products to buy dol
lars to pay these fixed charges, which
must be settled before he knows
whether he has anything left. He does
not go on the market with the other fell
lows dollar to buy his own product.
