the slow shutting tread Of age, and sub
ordinate duties and pleasures TO the
capricious whims OF second childhood.
The difference in these two old men Is
simply a difference OF health. The one
old man is hale and hearty, enjoys his
food, sleeps soundly, and keeps his grip
on public affairs. The other old man is
weak and feeble, his appetite and diges-
ton are poor his sleep is unsound, he
has no interest in life or affairs save as
his personal comfort may be affected.
Healthy old age, whether in man or
woman, is largely a question OF sound
stomach and pure, rich blood. To pre-
serve this condition nature generally
needs some assistance, in order TO get
rid of the accumulations OF waste, efete
and poisonous substances which tend
to clog the body and impede the circu-
lation. II is also needful to keep the
stomach and digestive and nutritive
tracts in healthy condition, in order to
properly nourish the body.

TOOK REFUGE in STABLE
MOB OF ONE HUNDRED ANGRY MEN
AFTER JOSEPH DE VAUL.
Father, with n Revolver, Headed
the Pursuing Party.

With a mob of one hundred angered per-
sons bowling at his heels, Joseph De Vaul,
recently from New Mexico, sought shelter
in a barn near Rural and Washington
streets last evening about o'clock, and
only the timely arrival of Bicyclemen AS
kins and Lowe, who placed him under ar
rest, saved him from either death or a Sc
we're clubbing.
De Vaul, it is said, insulted a fourteen
year-o1d girl, which was resented by the
citizens of that part of the city, and the
father of the child, on hearing of the in
suit that had been offered his daughter,
secured a revolver and, with the weapon
in hand, headed the mob that chased the
fleeing New Mexican up one street and
down another until, tired, exhausted and
trembling with fear, he sought refuge in a
stable.
When the affair was first reported at the
police station it was feared that trouble
would result, and the bicycle police were
sent post-haste to the scene of the disturb
ance, arriving just in time to save the life
of the man.
At the police station last night De Vaul
said that he insulted the girl, but claims
that he meant nothing serious. Little
sympathy is expressed for him by the po-
lice, and they state that they are only
sorry they cannot place a more serious
charge against him than offending persons
on the streets.

SERVICE ON TENNIS COURT
EAST WASHINGTON STREET PRES
BYTERIANS MEET OUTDOORS.
Unique Song Service Greatly Enjoyed
by All the Members of the
Congregation.

An open-air song service was held last
night at o'clock by the congregation of
the East Washington-street Presbyterian
Church on the tennis court just east of the
church. Chairs had been carried from the
Sunday-schOol room of the church and ar
rangements made for seating about $50 peo-
pie. Every chair was filled, and a number
of people stood about the outskirts of the
meeting. The pastor, the Rev. +. c. Hood,
had charge of the service.
The church choir, composed of ten voices,
led the singing. After number of songs
had been sung the Rev Hood made a TWEEN
ty-minute talk, his subject being Christ s
Ability" His thought was that we admire
ability in any direction, in that it is gift
of God and it is the influence and inspira-
tion or Christ that saves the soul. The fact
that we are especially fitted is because He
has hold of the secret of all power and thor
oughly understands all persons whom He
would save. BY the time the last song was
announced dusk had fallen, and the words
of the music could not be read, SO that the
tune was hummed, and proved TO be the
most impressive part of the services.

PLAN OF DEMOCRATS.


1t developed yesterday that the machine
Democrats expect to make three strong"
points in their campaign for the election of
the ticket nominated Saturday. The points
they will emphasize are what might be
termed negative arguments. They will
raise a great hue and cry about what the
Republicans are doing.
First. they will say. Mayor Bookwalter
relies on securing his reelection by con-
trolling all the negro votes in the city.
Second the Republicans have a campaign
fund of over 100000, and expect to buy the
election.
Third, and this withsa groan, the Repub-
licans will control all the election machin-
cry, and their boards can count their ticket
in If IL Is necessary.
In line with the first of these points the
Democrats are already at work trying to
sur up the Republican negroes of the city
TO believe they have right TO demand that
a negro be placed on the Republican city
ticket To till the vacancy created by the
withdrawal OF Charles N Elliott nominee
placed on the Republican ticket the Demo
Gratis VIII make all possible capital out OF
1T, and nope to create disaffection among
colored Republicans. The Democrats are
doing this in the face of the editorial dec
laratiOn of the World, the organ of the
I'colored voters of Indianapolis and Indiana
that negro should not be placed upon the
Republican city ticket
In celebrating on the second point Car
Keachs minions are asserting that the Re-
publicans have boosted that they have a
campaign fund of $4,000 with which tc
elect MIR. Bookwalter. This representation
is so palpably a misrepresentation, manu-
| featured or whole cloth, that the Repub-
lican leaders will not even dignity it with a
denial.
The Democrats will lay especial stress

AN OLD W0MAN'S BELIEF.
Mrs. Mary Carter Thinks Odd Fellows
should Keep Her.

Mrs. Mary Carter, an aged woman and a
former resident of the city, made her pres
ence in Indianapolis felt last night by call
ing at the police station and informing
Sergeant Warren, who was in charge of
affairs, that she had been wronged by the
Odd Fellows Lodge and intended staying
here at their expense for a year at least
She implored the sergeant to aid her in
gaining her point with the order, and stated
that her husband was an Odd Fellow before
he died. That fact she said entitled her to
free entertainment at the hands of the or
ganization for two years after his death.
The sergeant told her that her case was
not one that the police had anything to do
with, but she said she had no place to stay,
and would be compelled to sleep out of
doors unless he took charge of her case.
The sergeant was touched by the child
like simplicity OF the aged woman and
called UP number of Odd Fellows over the
telephone and in a short time arrangements
were made for the woman's care until her
relatives. who live in Kansas City, can be
communicated with.
Mrs. Carter has been a burden on the
hands of the local lodge of Odd Fellows for
year or more. She has a misconception OF
the bylaws of the order, and claims that
they should see 10 her support since her
husbands death. When given any money
she uses IL up in travelling from one place
TO another instead of staying at her home
Arrangements will be made by the Odd Eel
lows to have her sent to illinois, where
she owns small piece property.

BABY TOO MUCH FOR THEM
TWO MEN LUGGED 1T TO THE PO-
LICE STATION.
Founding Asylum from Whence 1t
Came Would Not Take Ii Back
Advice of Police.

High top boots, wide brimmed straw
hat, patched trousers and a doleful face,
red and freckled. partially describes the
personal appearance of a man who, carry
ing a bundle apparently of horse blankets,
but which on inspection proved to be a
baby almost suffocated by the heat from
the numerous blankets in which it was
wrapped, entered the police station yester-
day afternoon and asked to see the superin-
tendent On being informed that the sup
erintendent was out he said the captain
would do.
The man was accompanied by his father,
who was no less grotesque in appearance
than his son.
1--WE have come to bring the baby back"
said the man with the doleful countenance
''and where we got him they won't take
him back and we want you to make 'em do
it," With these few words he placed the
bundle, which by that time had begun to
move and squirm and cry on the table in
the Office of Captain Kruger and started
to walk away. Hold on here, said the
captain, what do you want me to do with
that baby? An investigation and explain
alton followed which revealed the fact that
the man had taken the child from d found
lings home in this city some weeks ago
with the avowed intention of "givin' him
a right raisin', but on account of his wife S
illness he was compelled to change his
plans. He carried the child back to the
home from which he had taken it but they
refused to take it back and as he was not
able to care for both his invalid wife and
the crying baby he did not know what to
do. The captain listened to the story told
by the man and finally arranged with the
older man to care for the child day or
SO and If at the end of that time the woman
who was to be a mother TO the babe had
not fully recovered he should bring il back
to town and the police would see what
could be done in the way of finding it a
home.
Gimme tibet kid, Bob" said the old man
as the two walked out of the police station
door, and taking the bundle in his arms
the old man walked off up the street while
his son with the doeful cOuntenance and
the high top boots followed
