tor and election at the hands of the Legis-
lature. We voice the sentiment in so doing,
not only of the people of this district, but
also of a large per cent. of the Republicans
of the State. We present a man supremacy
well qualified by native ability culture and
knowledge of affairs for the honorable and
useful discharge of the important duties of
a senator, both toward his country and his
party.
We present man who, while earnest
student of social and industrial problems,
and an able and sincere advocate of meas
ures to promote the welfare of the people.
is yet practical in his ideas and correct and
forceful in his judgment. We believe he
would take into the Senate talents and rip
ened intellect which would command the at
tenton and admiration of the whole coun-
try and reflect credit upon the State and
sustain the high reputation which its dis
tinguished statesmen have given it, We pre-
sent an available man in the party sense
and one who, if elected, would conserve the
unity and harmony of his party as a col
league of Senator Fairbanks.
These resolutions were adopted unani-
mously, and the chairman was instructed
to appoint a committee of one hundred, be-
side the volunteers, to go to indianapolis,
to work in the interest of Judge Taylor.

NATIONAL GUARD. MEETING.
What Indiana Would Get Under Pro-
posed Appropriation.

Adjutant General Gore has returned from
the meeting of the National Guard Associa-
ton held at Chicago. Yesterday, in dis
cussing the resolution adopted by the asso-
citation to ask the federal government for
a $5,OOO,OOO appropriation for the National
Guard of the country, General Gore said,
while he hoped to see it granted. he did not
look upon it as a contingency to be depended
upon. Under this appropriation the appor-
tionment would give about $15O000 to In
DIANA which is twelve and one-half times
the amount of money now furnished this
State by the government. General Gore
thinks it possible that the government will
increase the present appropriation of 100000
to about a million, which would give the
militia of this State a substantial lift and
enable the State to have a more effective
organization without increasing it's own APP
DrOpriatiOn.

A FREAK In DISTRESS.
Charles Allen Howard Can Be Nailed
to a Board.

A dime-museum freak named Charles
Allen Howard applied at the police station
last night for shelter. He carried under his
arm a book pasted full of newspaper no.
tees of his performances. Howard said
that because he had no sense of feeling he
could be nailed to board To show that
he was telling the truth he performed the
edifying operation of thrusting needles into
his face and nails into his nostrils, which
was greatly appreciated by the members of
the force who happened to be present He
said he was an Englishman, but had lived
in India the greater part of his life. He
was broke because his manager left him
when he lost his last job, and took all his
money. He had not the sense of taste, he
said but his appetite was good. Superin-
tendent Quigley gave him money to buy his
supper and directed him to the Friendly Inn
for a bed. He said he would return to the
police station to-day and seek the aid of
the superintendent in procuring contracts
with the medical colleges for exhibitions
and examinations

Mother General of the Order of the
Sacred Heart to Tour America.


Mother Mabel Digby is mother general of
all the religieuse of the Order of the Sacred

history furnishes a beautiful example of
what can be done and suffered when lfe's

Digby was born, have long been noted in

the rarest combination in the world among
writers, and whose most celebrated work
is ''Mores Catholici,' is a relative of Mother
Digby.
With every inducement to enter upon
worldly career and win renown as a woman
of learning and social standing, with all
the family connections and wealth requisite
to the accomplishment of any reasonable
wish, so strong was the religious feeling
of this young girl that at seventeen years
of age she was received into the Catholic
Church, and, although she did not at that
time confess her intention. of becoming

Attitude of senator Fairbanks.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. - Senator Fair
banks has had his attention called to West
ern publications in which it was said that
he was antagonizing the election of Mr..
Beverage to the United States Senate on
the theory that Mr.. Beveridge's success
would make it harder for him (Fairbanks)
to be reelected four years hence. Senator
Fairbanks has taken no part in the Indiana
senatorial contest, nor will he; neither has
he, directly or indirectly, intimated a pref
erence for any one of the candidates over
the others. No one can be found here who
has heard the senator express a preference,
but he has said that he will be perfectly
satisfied with whoever the Legislature of
Indiana may elect and will welcome him
cordially as his COLLEAGUE and associate.

Dec. II. Yesterday the mother of young

nor was summoned to appear, but was not
