THE CORONATION.


The browning of the queen was the
event at the carnival Friday night,
and took place at the corner of Michi-
gan and CAIRO streets shortly after
O'Clock. The carriage containing
Miss Dora FOgel, the successful con-
teStant and the committee represent
ing Hyperion lodge X. P, escorted by
the Plymouth band and Company L.
L. N. g., was followed by a crowd
that completely filled the sidewalks
and blocked the streets from curb to
curb for a square In every direction.
Mr.. L. NJ. Lauer, after a brief but
appropriate addreaS, presented Miss
Fogel with a handsome diamond ring
and placed the crown upon her head,
amid the cheers of the ssembled
crowds.
Miss Fogel, the queen, is an accom-
pliShed. courteous and charming
young lady, and is too well known to
need further introduction. Her Sc
lection by the handsome vote of 296l.
proves that she has a host of friends.

Two drunken strangers were arrest

The city has been comparatively free
from drunkenness and disorder during
the carnival. 1t is seldom that a

1t is reported that Fort Wayne

man whose breath smells of liquor is
drunk. Ii the matter should be legal

smells of limburger cheese is dead.
The big city dailies are filled with
reports of marriages in the highest
circles of society contrary to the
wishes of the girls parents. There
is nothing strange about that. The
novels and short stories have preached
ia favor of such marriages hundred
years.
The ten thouSand-dollar damaeg
suits brought by Mrs. William E.
Bowman and Mrs. Noah Juday, wild

train at the union crossing in Misha-

to the two plaintiffs.
There is mighty cutlery over the
dressmakers' proposition that women

ing the garments to which suspenders
are commonly attached there does not
appear to be anything essentially in

A studious and thoughtful writer
on sociological topics says that as a
people we have fallen into the way of
excusing and condoning wrong doing
on the score of heredity and environ
ment. Inherited helpleSsness has
taken the place of original sin. "Only
lately" complains the London Spec
tator, IN an elaborate article on this
subject, 'swe heard scoundrel excus.
ed on the ground that he had a bad
uncle.''
IA mental twist" is another favor
ite excuse. 1t is considered to salts
factorily account for anything from
violent temper, incurable laziness, or
inveterate lying. to a mere disregard
of ordinary manners, and for the
reality of the supposed "twist" a mad
cousin or an eccentric grandfather is
accepted as ample explanation.
There is no question that there is
a good deal in heredlty, good deal in
environment, to shape ones course
and condition, but in SO cases in 100
there is good deal more direct force
and influence for good or III in the
child IS home.
1t is easy for parents to put the re-
sponslbility back generation or two,
or Sidetrack it to some collateraI
branch, but the larger share of re-
sponSfbility is usually in the child's
own home.
If there be good father and a good
mother there. the grandfather IS faults
and shortcomings may lie buried with
him.

FROST DOES LITTLE HARM.
Reports Show That Nowhere in the State
Was Its VISIT Severe.

indianapolis, Sept. 19.-According TO
the opinion of W. L. Blythe, section di-
rector of the United States weather bu-
reau, little damage was done by the
frost throughout the state. He says
that according to the reports that he
has received from the various stations
throughout the. state, the frosts were
not heavy enough to cause serious DAM
age. The only station that reports
anything worse than light frost was
Lafayette, where a killing frost was
reported. The minimum temperature
there, however, was reported at 30,
and it is thought that the report of a
killing frost might have been a little
exaggerated.
Warmer Weather Il Scheduled.
The frost about this city is reported
as light and the minimum temperature
for the twenty-four hours was 40,
which was registered short time be-
fore a. IN. The lowest minimum
temperature registered in the state was
at Columbus, where it was SO. At La
fayette, Marion and Washington mini
mum temperatures of 30 were report
ed. The highest minimum tempera-
ture reported in the state was at this
city. The area of low pressure is now
conferred over Cairo, ILL.,, and assurance
is given that warmer weather is to
come to this city, and it is said that
there will be no more danger of frost,
at least for several days.
Thinks the Corn IL All Right.
b. +. Johnson, chief of the Indiana
bureau of statistics, does not take
gloomy view of the outlook for Indi-
ana's corn crop. To the contrary, he
believes that the frost has not mate
rally injured the chances for an av-
erage yield, and unless there should be
heavier frosts within the next week
Or two he believes that the Indiana
farmer will fare well. II am not APP
prehensiye Of any severe damage hav-
ing been done by last nights frost"
said Johnson, especially on the high
er ground or uplands. Corn that grows
in marshy lands, or where water is
close to the surface may have suffered
to some extent"

Horse Sense Got Man Into Trouble.

In Hendricks comfy divorce suit
it developed that the husband at the
time he was doing his sparkling had
two best girls who held equal positions
in his affections. When goiag calling
he would let his horse select the route
when he came to the forks in the road
and married the girl who lived on the
road selected by his horse. This is an
instance at least where horse sense got
a fellow In trouble. But there are a
good many marriages based on about
the same sort of reason. Perhaps, if
the woman had used the same sort of
sense there would have been no wed.

A man who had occasion to buy a
large quantity Of brick, amounting tc
the millions, found that the brick
makers of Elkhart charged him 1928
a thousand at the kiln and the cost of
delivery would be 81 a thousand,
making the price 1925 thousand de-
livered on the ground for use. He
went to Chicago and contracted for
2, 500, 900 of brick at s4.60 per thou
sand delivered on the ground ready
for laying. He found that the retail
price Of brick in Chicago was Sc per
Thousand If they could be sold, but
that the strikes in the building trade
had SO reduced the quantity of brick
used that there were IN the yards
over 10 millions of brick unsold, and
that by reason of the strikes the de-
mand for this building material had
been reduced 40 per cent during the
present summer. This is a pointed
and plain illustration of the far-reach-
ing evil results of labor troubles, and
when they are as useless and sense
less as have been those Ia Chicago,
they excite almost contempt for the
short-sightedness Of the disturbers =

WANTED
Young Men and Women.

In all cities there is a scarcity Of
good stenographers. There are many
idle who cannot spell or punctuate and
who are otherwise careless, but the
kind of stenographers business men
want are very few. 1t is surprising
that more young people do not pre-
pare for this work for the salaries are
large, hours are short, and rapid pro-
motion is sure where merit is shown.
1t is true that thousands Of young
people learn shorthand and typewrit--
ing, but promotions Of young men and
promotions and marriages Of young
women together with the rapidly in
creasing demand soon exhaust the sup
ply.
The Huntington Business Uniyer-
sity at Huntington, Ind, which is
regarded by employers OF help as the
most thorough In its training and
which also fills more positions of this
kind than any other business school
in the state and has been unable to
fill more than half the calls it has for
stenographers.
This school enrolls very intelligent
and Industrious class of pupils and en-
ploys high grade teachers and the
work done there is superior in every
way. Expenses, however, are very
low. Board. room. tuition and books,
for a stenography course cost less than
$50. Many students reduce this
greatly by working there to earn part
Of their expenses.
Those who are interested would get
much valuable information on the
subject by writing o. E. Hawkins,
President Of the Business University
at Huntington.

Marion, Ind, Sept. 19.-With his
neck broken, Fred Fernung, farm
er, rear Rigdon, this county, was found
lying by the roadside near that place
Tuesday night about 10 p. M. by his
two sons, who had gone to search for
him. Tie supposition is that death
was caused by a fall from his wagon.
Fernung, who was between 40 and so
years old, was one Of the best-known
farmers in the neighborhood.
He had been losing a great deal of
sleep lately, and it is probable that
this is responsible for his death. He
went to Elwood and started home in
his wagon late in the afternoon About
8 o. m. lis team came home without
him, and his sons, fearing some mis-
hap had befallen their father, found
him lying dead along the road, about
five miles from their home. Fernung
was the father of thirteen children, all
of whom are living.
