"a. l. kramer.

Ten years ago the ground where the
magnificent hotel property Of the Indi-
ana Mineral Springs Company is locat-
ted at Indiana Mineral Springs. In
diana was wholly unimproved and al
most a wilderness. Now, owing to the
discovery of the valuable medicinal
qualities of the springs and the heal
ing virtue of the soil itself. together
with the enterprise OF Major II. L..
Kramer, there is located there one Of
the finest sanitariums in the United
States. The natural picturesque sur
roundings have been made more at
tractive and the hotel is a model OF
comfort and elegance.
For the greater accomm odation OF
guests who come in constantly increas-
Ing numbers from every section OF the
United States, arrangements have now
been made for the enlargement of the
hotel buildings. The contract was let
yesterday by Major Kramer for add1-
tons that will cause an outlay OF over
$50, 900. The improvements will consist
OF new bath house and an addition
to the hotel. The addition will be two
stories in height and will occupy a
ground space SOx16O feet. 1t provides
forty additional guest chambers. The
entire addition will be handsomely
and elegantly furnished. The bath
house, when completed. will be the
finest in the United States
No
guest chambers there will be OH The
first floor a dining hall. music room.
a billiard hall, ply oian's offices and
barber shop. In connection with the
bath house there will be ladies and
gentlemen's dressing rooms and cool
rooms will be deliberately decorated
and the floors will be laid IN white
tile. In both cooling rooms Will be
built large ornamental fire places
which will be used FOR heating pur
poses in addition to the regular steam
heating. The work will be entirely
completed in 80 days.
The Improvement and the entire ar
rangements of the hotel and grounds
ere made, keeping in view the artistic
effect of the whole. and when the i'm
provements arranged for are complet-
ed the hotel and surroundings will be
much more attractive than before.
Major Kramer states that still fur
ther addition to the hotel is contem-
plated. and that plans are now being
prepared for an additional structure
to contain 80 rooms for guests.
Already a quarter of a million dol
lars has been expended on the In
diana Mineral Springs enterprise and
under the present management greater
growth and development in the future
is assured.-Attica Daily Ledger.

Exposition visitors were startled the
other day by the sensational announce
ment that an attempt had been made
on the life of the shah of Persia. 1t
came close on the heels of the news
that King Humbert had been assassin
ated. The shah. who is visiting the
exposition, was driving through the
grounds, accompanied by his retinue,
when guard observed man in the
crowd who seemed to be trying to force
his way into the presence of the shah
He elbowed his way through the
throng and got SO near as to attract
the attention Of the Persian ruler. He
was seen to make a sudden lunge to-
ward the carriage and was thought to
