Last night Officers Westenberg

A LOAD OFF.
The Odd Fellows OF This
City Relieved of a Broth
erly Burden by the
Grand Lodge.

The Odd Fellows of this city will
note with pleasure that load which
they have been carrying for years Is
to be lifted by the grand lodge, thanks
to the efforts of Mr.. Jessup.
Some six wears ago there came
here a blind man by the name OF
Scott, who was an Odd Fellow; and,
falling sick, the local lodges took
care of him as they are required by
the rules of their order, supplying
him with nurses and going To great
expense, all of which was necessary,
under the supposition that his home
lodge would repay them. He be
longed to Cincinnati lodge. The
Cincinnati lodge, however, failed or
refused to make it right. They say they
have a home there for such cases,
and that if Scott will go there
he will be taken care OF; but
that if he does not they will only paw
his regular allowance for relief OF 81
per week. which sum is entirely in
adequate. Scott would not go 10 the
home at Cincinnati, ana as result
the lodges here have had to care foi
him all these years, AMI it has been :
great burden, considering that he
does not belong to them at all. Al
meeting of the Grand lodge TIN:

eluded to take this expense them
selves for the future until they cal

POWER PLANT.
The Location of the Power
Station of the Traction
Company About
Decided.

The question of the location of tat,
big power station for the Richmond
Street and Interurban railroad com
pany is one which has been much
discussed for the last two weeks, but
1T Is now considered settled. This WAS
much desired by the company because
they will put some very fine as well
as powerful machinery in this plant
and wish to have a location which
will give perfect foundation, and
they wish to get to work on the itn-
provements as early as is possible. !
The location selected is jlst south
of the Main street bridge on a ledge
belonging to the Starr Piano com
pany. The negotiations for the
ground have now so far progressed
as to be considered settled. The c.
X. Il NJ. will n a switch direct To
the plant WHICH gives fine facilities
for getting coal and disposing of
ashes and debris.

ADVANCED GROUND
ON SUICIDE AND INSANITY
by the National Physio Medical ASso-
Cfdtion-Dr. j. M. Thurston OF This
City Takes aLeading Part In the
Discussion OF the Subject.

In the conven. ton Of the national
association OF Physio- Medical physi-
CLANS at indianapolis yesterday some
advanced views were expressed on
suicide and insanity. DIR. A. l..
GaDmage, president of the associa-
ton, read paper on that subject, in
which he said
Suicide and insanity are caused
largely by people becoming distressed
witt harrassing worries due to the
rapid advance of civilization, by early
marriages and by hereditary diseases
ot q syphillitic nature. Suicide and
insanity are caused by the dwindling
away OF the instinct Of self preserya-
tion that is SO strong in every
normal human being. They are
caused by deterioration of the civilized
races and by intermarrying in fami-
lies with insanity aud scrofula Not
SO much attention Is paid to the
breeding OF human beings as is paid
to the breeding of fine dogs, horses
and cattle OF any value in the mar
ket- Suicide is the natural remedy
That Old dame nature has IF ridding
herself OF something not wanted IL
Is my opinion as u lawyer of many |
years experience that people with |
any hereditary taint in their blood |
should not be allowed to marry and |
bring children into the world.
DIR. Gammage was followed by DIR. |
Ihurston OF this city, vice president
oil the association, who expressed
even more radical views than the
above. Among other things he said:
a mi.n IN a condition beyond re-
generation Is much better of out of
this world than ia it and by killing
he confers lasting benefit
not only on himself but ON his friends
and the community at large If d
criminal, who has committed a crime
and who Is In danger of being appre-
hrnded by the law, wants to commit
suicide, he should be allowed TO do 50
and save thr state the cost of the
prosecution at the trial.
When man sinks so low that he
, a burden both to himself and his
riends, i say III IS good thing for
aim to commit suicide if he is not in
sane. II he Is insane that puts a diff |
erent aspect on the matter, and he
'hoold be guarded carefully from TAX.

,lained he meant cases where moral

A SLAVE OF TOBACCO,
Love of the Weed One of the Weak
nesses of the Great Carlyle.

AS is well known, Thomas CARLYLE.
the great Scottish essayist and his
torian, was a slave to tobacco. In his
home, his study or out of doors. he was
seldom seen without his pipe, and he
smoked the strongest tobacco he could
procure. During the last part of his
life he was sufferer from insomnia,
and his friend, Sir Charles Gaven
Duffy, once suggested to him that one
who suffered SO much from sleepless-
ness and indigestion ought not to
smoke so constantly. Carlyle replied
that he had once given up smoking for
an entire year at the instance Of doc
tor, WHO assured him that his only all
ment was too much tobacco. At the
end of the year he was walking one
evening in the country, so weary that
he was hardly able to crawl from tree
to tree, when he suddenly determined
that whatever was amiss with him
that fellow at least did not under
stand it," and he returned to tobacco
and smoked afterward without let or
hindrance, In his latter days he used
clap pipe made in Dublin and known
as the Repeal" He was unable to
renew the supply and Sir Charles Duffy
assured him that these pipes were
strictly reserved for believers in Irish
nationality and promised him a supply
if he qualified in the ordinary man
ner. Carlyle never qualified.

THE HEAD OF THE HOUSE,
Woman Declared to Be in Decision
of a Federal Court.


The ancient and venerable question
first raised in Adams day, and dis
cussed with more or less vigor by that
gentleman's descendants ever since, as
to who is the head of the house, the
man or the woman, has been settled, it
may be hoped finally, by Judge Pur-
nell of the United States circuit court.
The point came up in case in Vir-
ginia where woman, a storekeeper,
endeavored to take advantage of the
bankruptcy law, but had her petition
denied by lower court on the ground
that she was married and living with
her husband, she was not the head OF
the house. Judge Purnell reversed
this decision and rendered an opinion
to the effect that married woman liv-
ing with or apart from her husband is
the head Of the household in the legal
sense of the term. AS this decision is
rendered in a federal court, it applies,
Of course, to the whole country, and

Sound to Calais may rejoice that their
status has been fixed beyond further
