BE GAVE. y

Take the cup and drink it up
It may be bitter brew;
It may be wine with tang divine
That life has drawn for you.
No matter What-if sweet or not
You'll drink it just the same,
So send it down without a frown-
Whatever you do. be game,
Bite your lip and stand the quip
That stings you to the heart;
Brave with a laugh the jeering chat
That bids you stand apart;
For, soon or late, as sure as fate,
Twill be your turn to aim,
Twill be your day TO have your say
Whatever you do, be game!
Grit your teeth and stand beneath
The cracking whip OF luck
Unless your skin be weak and thin
You'll pull out of the ruck
Good luck or lad, good news or sad.
The path is aye the same,
Joy runs behind the grief unkind-
Whatever you do, be game'
Take the cup aand drink it up
It may be fortunes whim
That is the lees are ecstasies,
Though bitter at the bTim,
No matter what, if sweet or not,
Don't shirk it to your shane
The shame that fits the man who quits
Whatever you do. be gameI

He High School Cadet Regiment,
Of which Washington is justly
proud. dates back to the year
1882, when E. a. Paul, principal of Gem
trail, proposed the formation of mill
tary organization in the high schools of
the city, and with the help of Messrs,
Smith and Ayres, organized two com
panies of cadets. The primal motive
was rather one of health than any we'll
formed desire TO upbund corps Of
cadets that should compare, as it now
does so favora6Iy, with those Of our best
military schools.
Qualifications for Enlistment.
The physical exercises and habits Of
discipline demanded by the drill have
been. from the beginning. a splendid
addition 10 the school curriculum. i

ship The frst-year boys enter the COM
panies and are placed in squads, where
they are taught the manual of arms and
other rudiments OF the soldier until
they are capable Of joining the season
ed men IN the regular drills.
The officers are selected from among
the privates by a competitive examina-
ton IN the school of the soldier and
military tactics. The cadet colonel nf
the regiment is obtained in the same
manner by an examination in which all
the companies send men TO compete for
the prize. The military instructor IS

MRS. DUHME FILES SUIT
FAMILY TROUBLES OF THE row.
LERs SET OUT In COMPLAINT.
She Charges Her Brother, James NJ.
Fowler, with Defrauding Her
Federal Court Litigation.

Another complaint was filed yesterday in
the Federal Court in the Moses Fowler
Chase case, which adds still more to the
story of the tangle of family affairs of the
Fowlers, of Lafayette. The complaint was
filed by Mrs. Ophelia Fowler Duhme
against her brother. James M. Fowler,
charging him with having influenced and
dominated his aged mother in the manage
ment of her property in order to obtain
possession of the property for himself and
his children, at the same time injuring the
chances of the complainant and Moses
Fowler Chase. Other defendants named in
the suit are Cecil G.. Fowler, Louise Fowler
Elizabeth Fowler and j. NJ. Fowler, jr.
The complaint enters into a full history
Of the family troubles of the children of
Mrs Eliza Fowler, who died in 1903, in
testate, leaving three heirs-Mrs. Duhme,
James NJ Fowler and Moses Fowler Chase,
among whom the estate should have been
divided equally, it is claimed. The estate
was found to amount to s135.OOO. of which
$4,000 was later distributed by James M
Fowler, as administrator, among the three
legal heirs. each receiving So, OOG.
In the complaint Mrs. Duhme charges
that she has been wrongfulIy deprived of
a great amount of property by the actions
of James NJ. Fowler, her brother II Is
alleged that during the lifetime of Mrs.
Fowler property to the amount of 5000 900
was taken by James M. Fowler and his
children, by virtue of the confidence James
Fowler had inspired in his mother, who
was eighty-five years old when she died.
She had separated from her husband early
in the eighties, and during the remainder
of her life was very peevish and exctable,
and trusted no one except her son James.
According to Mrs. Duhme, the land Sc
cured by him should have gone into the
estate, had not he taken advantage of the
confidence placed in him by the old woman
and procured the property for himself.
Among the real estate IT is charged that
James M. Fowler secured unlawfully is a
farm valued at 900 for consideration of
$500. 1t is further alleged that Fowler
| persuaded his mother to deed to his three
children farms in Benton county valued at
| $4,000 each, and TO transfer to his children
| government bonds to the value of $227 362
| without any consideration.
Mrs. Duhme declares that she has a legal
| right to one-thrid OF the property which
| James NJ Fowler is alleged to have secured
| from their mother. and asks that the court
so decide.

AGAINST THE STRIKERS
IN CASE OF THE INDIAN
APOLIs FOUNDRY COMPANY.
1t Is Alleged by Officers of the Com
pany that Their Business Was In
terfered With-Court News.

Judge Carriers room was again crowded
to overlooking yesterday by interested
spectators to hear the suit for injunction
brought by the Indianapolis Foundry Com
pany against the iron molders' unions.
John l.. Wallace, superintendent of the
plant, was the first witness for the plain
tiff. He testified that the company had dis
missed its employees between and o'clock
every afternoon since the strike was de-
clared so that the men would be able to
Tested by the strikers.
Wallace further testified that he had Sc
cured seven Slavs to work at the foundry
and as he was escorting them to the plant
on the night of Nov. 10 $50 men gathered
around them before they had reached their
destination. The guards at the plant came
to his assistance and with drawn revolvers
succeeded in holding the mob at bay until
the Slavs were safely inside the plant On
cross-examination by Mr.. wiltsie the wit
ness said that the only purpose the COM
pany had in preventing the strikers from
talking to its employees was to prevent the
employees from being persuaded to quit
work.
James I. Dissette, secretary Of the foun-
dry company, was called to the stand and
testified concerning the interference of the
strikers with the coMpanys plant and en-
ployes He also told of an attempt made
by the strikers to prevent a wagon with
provisions for the employees from entering
the grounds of the company.
John Dunbraster, assistant foreman at
the plant testified to acts of interference of
the strikers, corroborating the testimony
Of Secretary Dissette concerning the at
tempt made by the strikers to prevent the
provision wagon from entering upon the
property OF the plant.
All the testimony in the case will prob
ably be in by this evening. although there
are yet large number Of witnesses to be
examined.

WILL OF MOSES MITCHELL.
1t In Involved i'm n Suit Filed In the
Federal Court.

In the Federal Court yesterday Judge
Anderson sustained the demurrers of the
defendants I'm the case of Moses Mitchell
against William Beard. The suit involves
the will OF Moses Mitchell, who died Jan.
g. 1896. The bill seeks the annulment of one
will, to set aside its probate and to estab-
lish and probate another will. The case is
a complicated one because of the lack of
clearness in the requests of the complain
ant which amount TO a petition for relief
from one source, and IL IL cannot be OBJ
tanned there 1t is sought elsewhere. What
ever other. relief is asked depends upon the
setting aside oc one will and the probating
of another.
Ii is charged that certain codicils con-
stituting part of the will probated are
fraudulent and void. having been brought
I'm the Henry Circuit Court and thence
transferred to the Hancock Circuit Court by
a change of venue, in which action the de-
PENDANT, William Beard, assumed to act as
attorney for the complainant. but without
authority and fraudulently compromised
the matter. the result being a decree pro-
cured by the defendant. TO the great injury
and damage of the complainant.
