The Indiana Gas Belt an Under
ground Sen of Oil.

When natural gas fails Indiana will have
the largest oil field in the world, for when
gas fails oil always follows.
The Consumers Gas Trust Company has
gas and oil leases on $1,000 acres OF land in
the gas belt They could readily sell one
half OF the oil leases for enough TO pay
for a new gas line from the field. which
would give TO its consumers plenty of gas
without extra cost to the company. IL gas
should fail In ten or twenty years the
present mains could be used TO bring the
crude oil to Indianapolis where IL could be
converted into fuel gas that would be
cheaper than coal II the Trust Gas Co
does not wish TO do this, they should turn
the plant over to the city. and Mayor Tag
CART will soon give us plenty gas IL off,

A German export journal published at
Frankfort gives its readers some advice by
which American merchants might profit.
Both in this country and in Germany man.
ufacturers have been accused of having re-
fused to adapt goods to the peculiarities of
foreign customers. How important il is
that this should be done appears from the
fact that Germany has captured much
British trade i'm Russia simply by catering
to the popular taste for red in wearing ap-
parel. English sewing needles have also
been BUSTED in Brazil because they were
wrapped in the old-fashioned black paper
The manufacturers of Saxony went i'm for
pink, and hold the market. A French ex-
porter of high-class leather goods has just
discovered the heather Chinees antipathy
for green by the nonsale of his elegant
articles made up in that color. Moral:
Leave color fancies for the drawing ROOM
and make money from the rainbow If the
market requires IL.

A Sleepy Depmty.

Under a former administration the
United States marshal oflwestern,Pen
sylvania sent a warrant to one of his
deputies, who was stationed in back
county, for the arrest of counterfeit
er. The deputy knew the man and
treated him CONSIDERABLY. When they
reached Pittsburg. the necessary'papers
were not at hand to commit the prison
er to Jail The deputy would not take
him to a hotel, because he wonld have
to Jly the bill out of his own pocket.
So / took him to,the marshaFs Office
to pass the night there. The,deputy
was sleepy and the counterfeiter. said he
was. So the deputy handcuffed his pris-
oner to himself and lay down, on the
floor beside the steam register. As soon
as the deputy was asleep the counter
feiter took his keys from his pocket.
unlocked the manacle and fastered the
loose end to the register. Then he took
the deputy's watch and what money he
had and departed.
"Where is your prisoner ?'' asked the
marshal the next morning, awakening
the deputy.
"Doesn't that beat all?'' he replied
as he tugged at his handcuff and bruised
his wrist. ''Dafned if don't believe
he's 81 me the slip. '-Pittsburg News.

The true spirit of Americanism is
indeed manifesting itself in the near
est of our imperial possessions, Porto
Rico. The supreme court at San
Juan confiscated the issue of the San
Juan News. the American newspaper
published there, for criticising the
court. The News published an extract
of Gen. Grants report stating that
the Porto Rican judiciary was corrupt,
referring particularly to the lower
courts. Gen. Henry warned the News
to desist, but the action of the SUI
preme court was taken without the
consent of Henry, who countermand-
ed it. The same court also demanded
that the News submit articles to it be-
fore publication. Henry disapproves
of this. There is much feeling among
Americans here on account of the in
cident.

Ladd Endorsed for Governor

Henry county democrats. at Kewa-
nee yesterday, passed resolutions en-
dorsing Charles X. Ladd, of that city,
for the nomination for governor OF
Illinois in 1900. The enthusiasm was
extraordinary when his name was
mentioned. The leaders there say all
western, central and southern Illi-
nois democrats are for Ladd.
The following resolutions were
adopted:
I'VE, the democratic central COM
mittee of Henry county, Illinois, do
reaffirm our allegiance to the national
democratic platform of 1896, and
pledge ourselves to maintain its prin-
ciples and advocate its reenactment
in our national convention of 1900,
with such other propositions as shall
prevent our government from being
supplanted by imperialistic trusts adj

ministered by hypocritical combines
I'VE believe in that principle of
governmental administration that
shall give the greatest good to the
greatest number. with equal rights to
all and special privileges to none.
I'VE regret the factional discord
that has arisen among some of our
former leaders, and hope the dogs of
war may be exchanged for doves of
peace.
I'VE believe that the democratic
nominees for 1900 should be men who
are near the people, and to that end
we pledge ourselves to work for the
nomination in 1900 of William j..
Bryan for president of the United
States, and Charles K. Ladd. of Henry
county, for governor OF the state of

Judging N Mules speed.

"When / was young man, quoth
Officer Fayette Jones, ~-from a stand
point of years, L used to- trade mules &C.
casionally. One day 1 had a dispute
with a man to whom had sold an ami
NAL about its speed. We were unable to
agree between ourselves, so we called
in an old codger who talked with a
drawl and used almost as much tobacco
as he raised. We stated the question
to him, Which is the faster of the
mules?' He asked to be taken tolthe
stable and stood there watching the
mules eat. He chawed and looked, and
looked and chawed. We wo 1de1ed what
he could tell about their speed simply
by looking at them, but finally he
pointed out the mule l had1v sold and
said, That air the fastest eof them
mules
:. How do you know?' we<asked in
one breath.
" Well he replied. that; FOUNDER
one takes two chaws to t'other's one an
eff one mule chaws faster than t'other
it's natural that he's faster critter.

forgotten, and now whenever I want
to know the relative speedI of horses
or mules 1 judge 'em by thetway they
chew "-Paducah Sun.

The Overture to "Tnnls Ready

A man who writes theatrical gossip
for a London paper gravely declares
that he knows manager who was
greatly concerned lest the music for a
tank play he was putting on should be
inappropriate. The director of the or
chestra suggested several suitable num-
bers from "Lurline" and 1.-The Lily of
Killarney" and SO on. But the manager
could not be satisfied. He wanted some
thing that should have direct relevance
TO the. great water illusion. At last his
conductor, in despair, suggested in a
grimly humorous moment the overture
to "Tancredi."

story of a Slave.

To be bound hand and foot for years
by the chains of disease is the worst
form of slavery. George ID. Williams,
of Manchester, Mich, tells how such
a slave was made free. He says:
MY wife has been so helpless for five
years that she could not turn over in
bed alone. After using two bottles OF
Electric Bitters she is wonderfully
improved and able to do her own
work" This supreme remedy for
female diseases quickly cures nerv-
business, sleeplessness. melancholy,
headache. backache. fainting and dizzy
spells. This miracle working medi-
cine is a godsend to weak, sickly, run
down people. Every bottle guaran-
teed. Only so cents. Sold by Hartz

ACCORDING to Washington advices,
the soldiers of the republic who vol
unteered their services when war was
declared on Spain, may now, peace
having been formally proclaimed, de-
mand their release. The brave boys who
enlisted in freedoms cause and were
sent to the far away Philippines. and
who have since been used to oppose
the hottest tenants and truest tradi-
tions of Americanism, have been
obliged to do most of the fighting in
which they have been engaged in
combating n cause directly opposed
to that for which they offered them
selves. cause unnecessarily thrust
upon the nation and outrageously at
defiance not only with the spirit of
the declaration of the war, but with
this country's solemn declaration to
the world. The American volunteer
who goes forth to fight under the
stars and stripes hereafter will not
know whether he will return in the
uniform of his own country or that
of some other nation.
