NEW MAIL ROUTE.

An advertisement for proposals
for carrying the mail daily except
Sunday between Bryan and Macy
appears in another part Of this
paper. Thus daily mail route
has been established between these
points, and The Eagle force feel
gratifed at this early success Of our
efforts in this direction, for it is
through the humble efforts of The
Eagle that this result was obtained.
Many citizens Of the Edge and
Tabor communities have often
I complained that they could not get
The Eagle and other mail that they
wanted from Bryan, without great
delay. We knew that we could
get a large increase in The Eagles
list OF readers in that section by
getting this service, and that il
would promote the convenience of
the people up there very greatly in
many ways. The idea Of Edge
people getting mail only twice a
week and even that to come to
them by way OF Hearne instead of
having a direct line to their county
seat, seemed TO us to be too much.
So an Eagle man went up there
with petitions prepared for circu.
lation, and a. the same time Se cir
culated one at Bryan. They were
forwarded to Congressman Henry
vino generously promised to push
the matter, and the result is an es.
tablished route.
The Eagle congratulates the peo-
pie of the northern part Of the
county upon theo closer connec-
ton with their County seat and
trading point.

Sheriff Clark. side of the Case.

Yesterday a morning paper said that
Bemis Dudbridge. held in the count Jail
on a serious charge, was permitted to 60
at large without deputy and enjoy free
dom denied other prisoners. Sheriff Clark
emphatically denied the truth of this state
ment and said that on the petition os
Edward Little he was released on the
representation that the prisoners mother,
living on North Meridian street. was prob
ably on her deathbed, and requested that
he be allowed To go see her. Mr.. Little
was deputized. at his own request, and he
took Dudbridge 20 his mothers home and
sat by her bedside with him. After the
visit the prisoner was returned. Sheriff
Clark says he supposes If Dudbridge went
TO a barber shop IL was with Mr.. Little.
Sheriff Clarke admits that IL is a little out
OF the ordinary for a man TO be allowed
to leave the jail. but says he had a man of
honor deputized and thought II an act OF
charity TO allow this privilege. He also
pointed out that ii was no political favorit-
ism, as was made to believe. as Mr.. Little
is a very prominent Democrat.

LAW SCHOOL GRADUATES.
Seventeen Young Men Received Their
Diplomas Last Night.

steam, electricity and the printing press
lave a 1t run their course" was the
startling statement made by Attorney
General William l.. Taylor last night to
seventeen young men who were about TO
receive their diplomas as graduates of the
Indianapolis College of Law. 1.-THE era
now on u.s." he continued, 'is one of ex-
panding development" The attorney gen.
eral said in the beginning of his talk to
the students that he hoped to be able to
tell them something which they would re-
member, and did not propose to talk to
them of abstract legal questions. The close
attention paid to his remarks and the lib
eral applause with which they were pune
tuated would indicate that the speaker ac-
complished his object. In closing his ad-
dress Mr.. Taylor gave the young men some
excellent advice about their career as law
yers. Get a well-lighted Office said he.
at needn't be especially large, but 1t must
be we'll lighted, for darkness is conducive
to dreaming. and / tell you there is abso-
Iutely no time for dreaming in the law. If
YOU will keep your Office well for ten years,
IL will keep you ever. after, as an old lawyer
once said to me- The attorney generals
tribute to Malesherbes, the distinguished
French advocate who boldly defended LOuiS
XVI in the teeth of the commune. was a
fine bit of oratory. Mr.. Taylor made use
of Malesherbes's fidelity to emphasize his
advice to the graduates to always be true
to their clients.
Judge John V. Hadley. Of the State Su-
preme Court, presided over the exercises.
The opening prayer was delivered by Rev.
w. c. Taylor, pastor OF the College-avenue
Baptist Church. AT the conclusion of the
attorney generals address the diplomas
were awarded by Prof. F. NJ. Ingler. acting
dean of the college. The exercises came to
a close with the of admission TO
the courts and benediction by Rev. Mr..
Taylor. At intervals during the evening
music was rendered by the Montani Bros.
orchestra, consisting Of the Italian harp,
violin and clarinet. A curious coincidence
was the fact that the music was typical Of
a lawyers career, the first selection being
somewhat slow. the time of those succeed
ing it gradually getting more rapid and
pleasing, until the whole concluded with
''There'H Be a Hot Time in the Old Town
Tonight" Following were the graduates:

Solos were sung by Miss Sennfeld and Miss
Hanson, and Miss Weiss and Miss Bokaloh
sang a duet. In the crown drill the young
women went through some very pretty
evolutions on the stage, and although they
were crowded the movements were neatly
executed. 'Glimpses of Life" a drama,
which ended the programme, embodied all
that the title implies when applied to the
worry of a housewife enduring the annoy
ance of visitors and saleswomen when they
wish to be left alone.

HOW THE GROCERS WIN
THEY WEIGH THEIR SALES IN
HEAVY PAPER BAGS.
The Rate of Profit on the Paper
Bag Is Greater Than on
the a

Consumers OF groceries-and what family
Is there that does not consume groceries
are paying the grocer a nice profit in addi-
tion to his profit on the goods through the
weighing UP in his scale pan of the paper
bag. Formerly the grocer used a light,
Manila bag which didn't make much of
an impression upon his scales. Lately he
has been using. almost to the exclusion of
the Manila product. a particular heavy
colored bag, known to the trade as the
red sugar bag"
This bag, which it has been found, is be-
ing used quite generally in Indianapolis
and the-country round about, weighs fully
three times the weight of the ordinary
Manila bag, and costs the grocer an aver
age of 4 cents to the pound. 1t is claimed
tor it by the grocer that it has better
wearing qualities than the other bag, but
a machine test OF two of these bags of
corresponding capacity does not bear out
this argument. However, there is no
ga~insaying the superior weighing qualities
OF the bag.
To Illustrate the extent to which this
heavy bag enters into the consumers deal
ings with the store, a Chicago newspaper
correspondent who has been making q
Stt1I VI tAiS AlatlCA- anu IidQc some
special investigation IL Indianapolis, fur
nishes the following statement: ION every
pound Of sugar, which is about the cheap
est commodity a person can buy at the
grocery store, the grocer makes a rate of
profit OF about 3 cents per pound on his
bag, IL weighed in with the product, while
his profit on the sugar Will not average
over a half cent. If he makes a twenty
pound purchase of sugar, and this is not
unusual, particularly in country districts,
the consumer gets a colored bag weighing
over three ounces. giving the grocer the
benefit OF just that amount of sugar. On
every five such sales the merchant realizes
about the price Of a pound OF sugar.
Very often coffee is weighed UP In these
heavy colored bags, which are of varied
hue. sometimes red, sometimes blue and
occasionally striped. II the grocer weighs
in one OF these bags with a pound sale of
30-cent coffee, he is making a rate of 26
cents per pound profit on his bag, while his
profit on the coffee will amount to about
5 cents. Sometimes he will weigh in a
pound OF tea with one OF these bags. In
such instances his rate of profit on the bag
would be largely increased, as tea is a
costlier product than sugar or coffee.
Should he weigh In one of these bags with
a pound sale OF 81 tea his rate Of profit on
the bag would. of course, be 90 cents, While
his profit on the tea would be around one
tenth OF that sum. The proper way for the
grocer 20 deal with the consumer is to
weigh up ms goods first. and then place
them in the bag. There IS a law in Ger
many and England, compelling the mer-
chant TO do this"

Suggestion by state statistician.

j. B. ConRr, state statistician, in speak
ing of the late decision of the Supreme
Court in tie case of the Manufacturers
Gas and OF Company and others VS.. the
Indiana NEURAL Gas and Oil Company, in
which it vas held that gas could not be
legally pumped from wells, said: 1T has
been suggefed by some that while the de-
cision of he Supreme Court holds that
pumping els from wells is unlawful it is
equally solto force ii through pipes by
pumping Stations because such system also
draws on me well. But it should be re-
membered that If gas could be delivered
at the cityNwith its natural pressure at the
we'll il would be ample in the city pipes.
The fact 5 that the purpose OF pumping
stations isto overcome the friction and loss
of naturallpressure at the we'll and to de-
liver gas At the cities with at least we'll
pressure. 1t cannot be said that the opin-
ion of the court touches this point"

There will be two specials leaving for
Kansas City on Monday afternoon. The
official route-the one selected by the state
committee-will be over the Vandalia- The
element of the Democracy known as the

who expect 10 attend their convention at
Kansas City, will go on the silver train. +.
J. Van Vorhis, chairman Of the silver Re-
publican committee of the State, and Clar-
ence r. Weir, secretary OF the committee.
left for Kansas City yesterday afternoon.
1t is expected that leading member of
the Democracy who expect to start for
Kansas City Monday will begin arriving
here tomorrow. d. T. Shively, of South
Bend, who is to go with the "conserva-
tiveS" on the official train, is not looked for

the belief Is expressed that Indiana will be
largely represented in Kansas City.
Frank b. Burke, of this city, who was
defeated for the Democratic nomination. for
Governor, will not attend the convention
because he does not believe he could get
comfortable quarters. He says he declared
to himself several years ago that he would
never attend a national convention that
was not held either In Chicago or New
York. where accommodations could be
readily secured.
Albert Sahm said yesterday that a large
per cent. of the German-American Demo-
cratic Clu would go to Kansas City on
Monday. 1t is understood that this club
will go over the Big -Four.
