\ RUMOR Is QUIETED
GLEN STUDEBAKER PUTS A
OUIETUS TO AN ABSURD
STORY.
Not Through His Influence That Our Boys
Failed To Get to the Front--He Has Great
Confidence in the Men Under Him.

The story has been going the rounds
that Mr.. Studebaker has used his in
fluence to prevent the 18th regiment
from getting TO the front. Mr. Stude-
baker sets this matter at rest in the fol
lowing letter to the South Bend
Tribune:
"Since my return home from the south
/ have heard an absurd story said to be
current to the effect that it has been
through my influence at Wash
ington that 10Th Indiana volun-
teers have not been sent to santiago or
Puerto Rico. I always supposed that
when man enlisted in the United
states service the war department con-
trOlied his movements regardless of the
wishes of relatives of either officers or
priyates. l have never presumed to
petition or advise with reference to the
movement to or from the front of the
18th.
l did telegraph the president asking
him to remove them from Tampa to a
better place when | saw the conditions
surrounding their camp. | did this for
fear all would be down with fever. |
would have been glad at this time TO
have seen the boys go to Puerto Rico,
as they were SO anxious to go, and they
have been repeatedly told they were
sure to go there. | am quite confident
it has not only been disappointment
to the 10th Indiana, but to the whole
brigade and division to which they be-
long. They still have, or had when l
was there, treyeliDg rations drawn, and
were living under the expectation of
going to Puerto Rico. The day that /
left Tampa Gen. Snyder, their division
commander, was quite positive they
would go, and said so to me
While it is true that | could not
sleep nights if | were the cause of this
regiment being sent into danger, |
trust that my loyalty and patriotism
are sufficiently assured to give conf
dence to my declaration that the only
path | could wish the 18th to tread is
that where duty and honor lead the
way. | do not know why they have
not gone any more than any of you, but
of one thing L am sure, they are earn
est brave men, and will do their duty.
God bless them. | am willing to trust

Appellate Judges.

The Republican state convention did
not nominate any candidates for appel
late judges. The republicans hold that
the present judges hold over. The
democrats have nominated candidates
and will bring mandate proceedings to
have the names of the candidates
placed on the official ballots
The position of the democrats is that
the law extending the terms of the in
cumbents, passed by the last legisla
ture, was unconstitutional, aid that an
election should be held this fall. The
question it is asserted, will reach the
supreme court.

Does Baby
I hrive?

If your baby is delicate
and Sickly and its food does
not nourish it, put fifteen
or twenty drops of Scott's
Emulsion in its bottle three
or four times a day and you
will see marked change.
We have had abundant
proof that they will thrive
on this emulsion when other
food fails to nouriSh them.
1t is the same with larger
children that are delicate.
SCOTS Emulsion seems to be
the element lacking in their
food. Do not fail to try it if
your children do not thrive.
1t is as useful for them in
summer as in winter. !.

Attempted Burglary.

An attempt was made to burglarize
the residence of w. III. Young on South
Michigan street, at ? o'clock Monday
morning. There must have been two
burglars, as indicated by footprints at
the window on the north side of the
house. Mr.. and Mrs. Young heard the
noise and Mr. Young called out, but
later on they commenced again, when
Mr.. Young said he would shoot them.
They then cleared out. Should they
try again they will meet with warm
reception.

LET CUBA VOTE FOR ANNExATOIN

In the settlement of the new Gu
ban question, aggravated by the
proved inefficiency of the insurgents,
a suggestion offered by Spanish
paper before war was declared may
be adopted. This optimistic editor,
cherishing the idea that Cuba was
anxious to kiss the hand that smote
her, suggested that the Cubans hold
a plebiscite, and select the form of
government they wanted. There is
little doubt as to the result of such
an election, held under American
authority. The Cubans would not
be slower than the Porto Ricans in
acknowledging the superior adj
vantages of American rule. The
only votes against it would come
from the officials and parasites of
the socalled Cuban republic. In
favor of it would be found the votes
of the large majority of the people
on the island IN Spaniards, Cubans,
Americans, English and Germans.
The business interests to man
favor annexation, as the safety of
their property would thereby be
assured, whereas under insurgent
rule there would be danger of such
constant revolutions as are charac-
teristic of all of the Spanish-Ameri-
can republics.
All that IS necessary to secure
favorable results at the polls and
prevent future trouble will be strict
supervision by the American mill
tary government, SO that the insur-
gents cannot resort to trickery to
accomplish their aims.-Lafayette
Call.

Ex-Gov. Matthews is opposed to
territorial expansion. He told his
hearers at an old settlers reunion at
Farmersburg Thursday, where
10000 were present, that this gov
eminent honorably could not per
manently rule over any of the is
lands seized from Spain; that they
must be given Independent home
governments as soon as possible, and
the army reduced in order that the
taxation for war may be repealed.
He said that this government had
implied that it intended only to give
freedom to Cuba. He opposed &C

Apothecary Sick of Nargkirchen in
Westphalia entertained the kaiser
against his will at the time of the army
maneuvers in September. The apothe-
cary owns house in the outskirts with
a piazza running along the first story.
He had been obliged to quarter num-
Der of officers and men during their stay
in the town, and had turned over to
them every spare room and bed. He
kept the room opening on the piazza
for himself and his wife, and one night
went to bed leaving the house door on
the latch for the convenience of his
guests.
At 4 o'clock in the morning Kaiser
Wilhelm, with his staff, entered the
town. The kaiser noticed the piazza
and thought it good place from which
to observe the country. An officer was
sent ahead to clear the we.yy, tbs Tx kai'-

officer, who was the Grand Duke OF

Siek's bedroom, knocked, and, getting
no answer, pushed it open and walked
into the room, where he found the
worthy apothecary in bed with Frau
Sick. The clatter of his sword woke up

He then passed on to the piazza, fol-
lowed by his whole staff, and staid there
for an hour. On leaving the emperor
said to Herr Sick, who tried to excuse
himself:
"Your good wife is probably very
much frightened. hope in some way
to show you my thanks"
