A Street Car stopped and Mctofnaf
Relieved Of His Cash.


Relieved Of His Cash.
Chris Framm, one Of the motormen
on thr little car line had rather en-
citing and at the same time noyel ex-
perience last exening as he was COM
ing up Commercial street on the ten
o'clock run.
Just as he reached Marion Square a
man slgnalled for him to stop, which
he did. The new passenger was some
time iL mounting the rear steps, and
while Framm watched him he sudden
ly heard a gruff voice behind him say
Throw up your hands," Turning
quickly he looked into the muzzle Of
revolver, held by man whose eyes
had determined look from over his
hand, which he held In front Of his
face.
The motorman thought joke was
being played on him by Isome of the
boys but the quickly repeated order
soon dispelled all such thoughts. By
this time the man who had siRnaled
the car had come through to the front
platform, and while his companion on
the ground kept Chris covered with
his gun, went through his jackets re-
llevinV. him Of change to the amount
OF S5 20.
The search completed, the man
with the gun told his companion to
see that Framm was unarmed and
after finding nothing they withdrew
and allowed the car to proceed.
No clew.to the robbers has been found
but meager description given by the
motorman tallies with the description
of two men discharged from the
couney jail yesterday.
In the meantime Chris, the motor
man, will not-stop 10 dark places for
suspicious looking men.

ing the name of the institution

a dread Of the name asylum. The

would be means Of great life saving

ibid you ever run across an old home

moIe?" asks an exchange. "Did it not
seem extremely interesting as you read
its columns of local news and personal
mentiln? AS you look over Its pages
the many seeming trivial mentions
carry with them multitude of tender
and pleasant associations, you wonder
that you priced the paper so little when
it was first printed when you find 1t so
full of interest after so many years. IL
is only when one gets hold of some local
paper and views its panorama of the
past and reflects on what perfect mir
ror of local events the papers are that
he begins to estimate their real value as

A Big REPRESENTATIVES.

Representative James Cunningham,
of Miami county, will be one of the
biggest men in the Indiana house of
representatives, measured by avoir-
dupois. He went to Indianapolis
lately, so it Is said, and visited the legis-
lative hall to select his seat, but there
was not Ole that would fit him. Mr..
Cunningham will therefore take with
him a large hickory chair that was
built for his accommodation. At home
he is called Jolly Joe," and can tell
more stories than any other man in his
county. He is successful breeder of
swine and wears q watch chain that
would strap down a load of hay, the
tusk OF an eighteen.months-O old Poland
China that took prizes everywhere.

Railroads Promote Prosperity

1t has been truly said that every
prosperous railroad carries its prosper
ity into every city and hamlet along its
line. Railroads in prosperous condi.
tions spend their money literally along
their lines in the way of Improvements.
So long as the earnings of railroad are
kept up. their employees are able to earn
good salaries and it is to the interest of
every business man to have railroad
employees earning good salaries, because
no class of people are larger consumers
in proportion to the amount of their in
come than are the railroad employees.
A compulsory reduction of passenger
fares will effect the prosperity of any
railroad when the average earnings are
barely above two cents per mile for
each passenger carried. The average
in Indiana for last year was q fraction
over two cents per mile. The earnings
for the current year have been on the
down grade and expenses have been
largely increased by the war tax, so that
the showing is not favorable. The de-
duction is clear that:a two-cent fare law
will not fail to cripple the railways and
business in general. 1tw

ner had taken sick and was unable to
be around. His wife volunteered to do
part of the chores. Staying out longer
than he deemed necessary he began to
grow anxious and finally, sick as he was,
be crawled into the frozen yard to find
what was the matter. 1t was there he
found her In an unconciOus condition
and apparently dead. His task was to
reach the farm bell and summon the
neighbors. When they arrived Mrs.
Conner was closely examined. Her
pulse beat feebly. Every effort to re-
vive her proved fruitless but she linger-
ed along until Friday morning. Her
death is thought to have been from q
stroke of paralysis.

Earning an Honest Living.

One of the inmates has left the coun-
ty farm indignant at the treatment he
received. This is how it happened
The old man Is q confirmed tobacco
chewer and is somewhat choicy in the
brand he uses. Mr.. Kruger gave him
his option out of six different brands
which had been brought from town but
the old fellow refused all and repeated
ly demanded that his particular sort be
gotten. "Give me my tobacco" said he,
"or l will quit the county.hous and
earn an honest living" The demand
was final but 1t did net secure the to-
bacco. The old man quit the farm and
is now chewing the identical brand he
lOnged for but he paid for it with his
own money.
