Renowned Her Religion.

A few days ago Rabbi Julius Nj. Ma
gill, of LigoDier, performed a ceremony
which is without a precedent in lndi-
ana. For the last three months Miss
Geneveva Burson, daughter of Judge
BursOn, of Kalamazoo, and leading
lady of that city, has been receiving In
structions in the teachings and tenets
of the Jewish faith from DR.. Maglll,
which subsequently led to her marriage
with Isaac SCHNEIDER, well-knOwn
Hebrew of Elkhart. Miss BursOn re-
nounced her allegiance to her former
faith with the consent of her parents
and the transformation of her faith
was signed by the officers of the con-
greeation. Miss BursOn was teacher
in the high schools of Kalamazoo be-
sides being a well-known writer of the
leading magazines.

patch set forth thai the ratification

radica! differef ce exists between the
conditions in the Catholic world and In

in the United States would be ht Id as
license on South America, where the
republics are adherents Of the Roman

Plunged From "a Window.

James Ii. Turpie, brother of exSen-
ator Turpie, fell from third story WIN
dow at the Lair house, at Lafayette,
Thursday morning, and died two hours
later In the hospital. His body was en-
tirely nude. There was light still in
his room, and the bed showed that he
had occupied it. He regis at the
hotel at II, and, it is supposed, returned
to the city late at night and did not
wish TO take the long walk home. He
narrowly escaped falling on messen-
ger boy who was passing under the
window. Mr.. Turpie came here from
Monon, and he owned fine home. He
was interested in real estate, and owned
much property.

school Grounds Beautified.

The school house property has been
UNNECESSARILY beautified by the elegant
new cement walks just laid. They are
indeed something superb and have been
put in more artistically than 1t would
be possible to lay stone. Although the
old cement walk which this one sup
plants was decided failure, the school
board anticipate good results in this in
stance and have made arrangements
with Isaac Frv, the contractor, so that
they are practically secure. The walk
circles both the new and old buildings,
and spreads into large open courts at
the entrances, thus giving room for
scholars to congregate as they invariably
do in the winter to brush the dirt and
snow from their shoes before entering.
A spacious flight of cement steps leads
from the street walk up gentle incline
to the main entrance of the old build
ing. The whole effect Is somewhat pa
latial.

Two Maniacs Running at Large in the
Woods.
Wabash Plain Dealer: Jo siah Haney,
a farmer near Claysvllle, in Huntington
county, is violently insane. His father,
whose mind has been affected for sew
eral months, has also become raving
maniac and the presence of the two lu
natics is causing a commotion in the
community.
1t lie said that both I0en, in an almost
nude condition, were running about the
woods and though they offered violence
to no one. the people were fearful that
they might decide to attack the people
in the neighborhood and the sheriff was
appealed to and be has taken both in
charge.
For two days, 1t is reported, neither
of the men touched food. The elder
Haney was committed to Longcliff asy-
lum several years ago and was dis
charged cured while Haney, the younger,
was lately overcome by the heat and
has since been demented. Both will
undoubtedly be SEM to the LOgansport
hospital

nation for governor.

Attorney General Taylor has de-
cided that it is illegal for faith cur
lists or christian scientists and other
unlicensed persons who assume the
title of doctor TO minister to the
sick, especially when fee is
charged. This construction pertains
to Indiana and was given at the re-
quest of the state medical board.
Where no compensation is charged
it seems there is no objection to
these persons practi,ing their pc
culiar methods of healing the sick &.

Letter from q. G.. AIlerding.


Thinking that a few lines from Har
Dor Springs might be interesting, sub
NIT the following:
The town has about | 200 inhabitants
but is still in its infancy as ii is build
ing up rapidly. This will be the banner
county for apples, pears and plums.
Wheat Will yield ten to thirty bushels to
the acre. They raise the largest and
best potatoes | ever saw. Corn is only
fair. Land can be bought from four to
forty dollars an acre. Some of the land
is rolling while other is level.
This would be great place for people
interested in raising poultry. Dressed
poultry and eggs are in demand during
the summer season, as this is the region
of summer resorts and thousands ofextra
mouths from all parts of the world
must be fed. Eggs are selling at Is
cents a dozen and dressed chicken at
10 cents pound.
The farmers truck their land great
deal here, raising produce for the re
sort people. Wages vary from so to
$50 month or 50 a day and board
yourself. Thousands of gallons of
maple sugar made here annually find a
ready sale. Good milk cows sell from
SO to $40.

The most effective method 70

The most effective method for
curtailing the power of the unscrup-
ulous press so forcibly and unspar
ingly denounced by Gov. Pingree
is to shut down on that class of
papers and bestow patronage on
newspapers of unquestioaable char
acter and demonstrated integrity.
All trashy papers, published by un-
principled cormorants, are pernicious
and detrimental to society. The
future welfare of the country de-
mands that they should be squelshed.

prison yesterday by way of the Lake

Fultz of Rochester and his deputy, a.

Public sentiment against Thompson

fierce that the officers believed that the
life of the prisoner would be in danger
if he should be taken to Peru, Roches

ADVISE AGAINST BUYING PLANT.

ADVISE AGAINST bt hIN' FLA - e.
The Independent has published
interviews with seventeen of the
leading business men on the electric
light matter. OF these only two
were pronounced in favor of the
city purchasing the plant at this
time. A few expressed themselves
as being in favor of city ownership
at some future time when the city
is more able financially than at
present. But almost all advised that
the council make a contract with
some responsible person for term
of years. These men are conserva-
tive business men and their judg-
ment is sure to carry weight.

interviewed are: John Blain, VIM.

was crossing piece of low ground in

flashing madly at his feet BY strange

heel down on its head, and in this pOsi-

the wiggling body and tail. Not until
then did he recognize the true chsrac-

upon. The ratt'es were shaking
vicIously; but, since the fangs were
under foot, he had nothing to fear, and
so dispatched the dangerous reptile at
leisure. Providence seems to have had
