W.rd and Works.

To say that this splendid work
IF science and art is finer and bet
ter than ever, is stating it mildly.
The demand for it is far beyond
all previous years. To say that
such results, reaching through
thirty years, are, not based upon
sound sense and usefulness, is an
insult to the intelligence of the
millions. Prof. Hicks, through
this great almanac, and his famous
family and scientific journal,
Word and Works. is doing a work
for the whole people not approach
ed by any other man or publica-
ton. A fair test will prove this
to any reasonable person. Added
to the most luminous course in as
tronomy for 1903, forecasts of
storms and weather will be given,
as never before, for every day in
the year, all charmingly illustrated
with nearly two hundred engrav-
ings. The price of single almanac
including postage and mailing, is
thirty cents. Word and Works
with the almanac is $l.O0 a year.

immigration Regulations.

The refusal to allow liquor to be
sold at the immigrant landing stations
was not the only thing done regarding
immigration IN congress this week for
the bill regulating the whole subject
was passed by the house. 1t demands
an educational test from immigrants
over fifteen years old, increases the
head tax from 81 to $3.50. excludes
certain classes, broadenS the word
contract and holds the ship compan-
panies to a more rigid responsibility.
Professor MaSaryke, of the University
of Prague, a member of the AuStro-
Hungarian Reichstrath, who is now
in this country, says that from his OBJ
servation in the immigrant quarters
of New York he believes that our sit.
uation in regard to immigration IS
very serious. We have an average of
nearly $780, 900 of people coming to US
annually, for the most part uneducat-
ed, among them great numbers Of
Italians, Syrians, Turks and Greeks.
He thinks we have no idea what it
means for these people suddenly liber-
ated from the political, religious and
social bonds under which they have
lived for centuries to be turned loose
here in the almost absolute freedom
that prevails

DEMOCRATS DISAGREE
judicial Convention Adjourns Without
Nominating Candidate For
Judge.

When this paper went to press We'd
nesday evening the judicial conven-
tion in session at the opera house had
all the appearances of a deadlock.
The friends of Martindale and Kelli-
son were eqally divided: Fulton coun-
ty had united on Bernetha and only
compromise candidate could hope to
win: and the compromise was not
effected.
At els q. M, the convention adj
jOurned for supper and it was thought
by many that nomination would be
made soon after supper.
The convention was called to order
again at 7:45 p. M, and at O'Clock
the 2lSt ballot was announced. 1t
showed that the situation was I'M
changed.
Fulton county having only % votes
had determined that Marshall county
should make the nomination and forty
times in succession the Fulton county
delegates cast their % votes for Harry
Bernetha.
There was but slight change in the
vote of Marshall county.
On several ballots S. n. Stevens
received votes and one ballot he was
given % votes, the highest vote given
any Marshall county man, but it soon
became apparent that he could not
get enough votes to nominate him.
Fulton county varied the monotony
by casting its solid vote for Peter NJ.
Buchanan on three ballots and it did
the same for Enoch Mver son three
ballots.
Judge Conner was also given some
votes from Fulton county.
Leopold NJ. Lauer, ID. f. Snyder and
Andy Molter each received one vote
from Marshall county.
Then there were consultations and
long waits and everybody expected
change which did not come.
On one ballot four Of the Marshall
county delegates voted for Bernetha
and he was given - votes. lacking
only two votes of nomination, but
he could not get the two votes needed
and was just as far from the goal as
any of the other candidates.
Fulton county delegates recipro-
Gated by giving Kellison few votes
and then did the same for Martindale
but neither Martindale nor Kellison
came near nomination.
All night the delegates argued and
ballotted: daylight came, the sun rose

About ten days ago a fOur-year-old
child in New York disappeared, and
as she was last seen playing on Hud-
son-river pier there was every reason
to believe she had fallen into the
river had been drowned. A sensation
al paper started the story that she had
been kidnapped, and followed it by
printing an alleged letter from the
kidnapers threatening tokiIl the little
girl unless her father, workingman,
paid $4,000 ransom. The story was
worked till the family were driven al
most crazy. Now the child's body
has been found in the river and the
lie that was invented to sell a few
papers has been exposed. Yet there
are newspaper managers who regard
that sort Of thing as journalistic en-
erprise.-IndianapoliS Journal.

An Old Texas Volcano.

The fact is little known except to
biologists, that there is an extinct
volcano located within eight miles of
Austin, Texas. The great destruction
wrought by the unexpected eruption
Of Mont Pelee, a mountain in the
West Indies which has been exit net
for centuries, has attracted the at
tention to the proximity of Pilot
Knob, the volcanic mound, IT, Austin.
That in the long ago Pilot Knob was
in an active state Of eruption is very
plain even to those who have little
knowledge of geology. The lava ex-
tended from its crater to pOin
within three miles of Austin, and the
lava stones cover wide area surround
ing Pilot Knob. 1t is said there are
other extinct volcanoes in the extreme
northwestern part of Texas in the
rough country surrounding the Rio
Grande.

Memorial Day In Plymouth.

There was never a more beautiful
and pleasant memorial day than FRI
day and the day was never more ap-
propriately and impressively observed
in Plymouth. The Indiana National
Guards and the veterans led by the
Bremen band was a fine procession.
The services were held at the Metho-
dist church. Many could not gain
admittance but by filling the gallery
and the hall as we'll as the main body
of the church, FIVE hundred persons
were able to hear the music the ad-
dress, the prayer and all that pertain
ed to the services.
The orator of the day, Rev. J. E.
Hartman, was born ten years after
the close of the war and he spoke as
belonging to another generation than
the veterans who saved the union and
preserved liberty in this fair land.
He spoke without notes and talked
only thirty minutes, but it was an ad-
dress that has seldom been excelled in
this city. He had the undivided at
tention of his audience from the first
word until the last sentence was Spo-
ken and the old soldiers were unani-
nous in declaring it one of the best
and most appropriate addresses to
which they had ever listened.
The music, the prayer, the march
to the cemetery, the exercises there
and the decoration of the graves were
all impressive. 1t was an appropriate
observance of day set apart to COM
mem0rate the deeds of men who Offer
ed their lives as sacrifice for liberty.
1t was day that recalled anew the
great and tragic events forty years
ago: day that impressed the rising
generation with the value of the her.
itage transmitted to them by the
brave men Of the sixties and the re-
sponsibility resting upon them to
maintain the rights and liberties of
all men unimpaired.
The theme of Rev. Hartman was
that all progress is the price of blood
and that until the millennium arrives
progress and reforms in government,
science, religion and everything else
that betterS the condition of the hu-
man race will be made in a great
measure, by the sacrifice of human
life.
In conclusion he emphasized the
thought that Decoration Day has
something more than sorrow for the
old soldier. There is joy for him to
know that he Is hOnored and is not
forgotten. There is precious blessing
in the knowledge that he will not be
forgotten when he is dead, and that
the generations which will be factors
in the worlds affairs in all the years
TO come will Strew flowers o er his
graveand pay tribute to his fidelity to
flag and country.

will be very little activity in politics

nothing is gained by attempting to
force the same. The Democrat thinks
Elkhart county democrats will make
their county nomination some time in
September, which is abundantly early.
