A TRAGEDY OF THE FLOOD.
One and Perhaps Two Lives Lost
Following the Carrying Away
OF q HOusebOat.

Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 23.-The ice
In White river has carried off a house
boat occupied by John Schowe and
wife, which had been anchored on the
overf1owed lowlands. The boat was
battered to pieces and Mrs. Schowe was
drowned. Her body vas carried down
White river by the ice.
John Schowe, the husband, was
thrown into the water when the house
boat went to pieces and caught hold
of bushes on a submerged island in the
middle of the river opposite the lower
part of the city. His cries for help
were heard and an effort was made to
rescue him. Rolla Morrison started
for him through the ice with a boat.
After an hour he reached him, but
Schowe was crazed by the cold, and
fought him off. Morrison finally over
powered him, tied him in the boat with
ropes and started for shore. The
crushing ice and struggles of the man
threw Morrison out and the boat went
on down the river with Schowe tied to
the bottom. Morrison caught some
bushes and was later rescued. Police
followed the boat with Schowe N it
as far as haywood, four miles below
the city, where a bayou prevented
further pursuit.

THE N
Enabled to Make Immense Profit
Through Fiscal Operations Of
the Administration.

Thefavored national banksare paying
enormous dividends these days, and
most of this is gathered from the ex-
traordinary fiscal operation of the ad-
ministration.
The national banks now have loaned
to them over $16S, 900 900 of proceeds of
taxation upon which the banks pay no
interest. The latest job which the war
department and the secretary of the
treasury have invented to put money in
the pockets of the bankers is the Philip
pine. loan. The bankers who were
awarded the loan paid 1875 for it, and
the bonds draw four per cent. interest.
They a~retoall intents and purposes Unit
cd States bonds and the bankers are now
Offering to sell them at Ill, or about
3k per cent. profit and recommend them
Particularly as an investment for ma
tional banks, on the ground that as a
basis for public deposits they would
"'make a net return of over % per cent"
This is figured out on the assumption
IldJ PlOu,uoo VI tHS loul pei CcuI. JULIUS
would cost Sill 900, and that $100 900 of
government money would be deposited
on their security without interest, so
that the actual cash invested" would be
only $11, 900, upon which the income
would be four per cent. interest on $780,
900, less 1916 as a sinking fund at four
per cent. to retire the premium, or 3d.
084, which is 28.037 per cent. on the SILL
900 actual cash invested"
The above quotation is from an edi-
torial in the Journal Of Commerce and
Commercial Bulletin, which also says:
1T is certain that the discretion of the
secretary Of the treasury should not be
exercised to enable favored banks tc
make a special profit out Of any class OF
public loans"
If the governments finances were run
in the interests of the tax payers, In
stead Of the bankers, the Philippine
bonds could have been purchased by the
United States treasury with a part o.
the money now deposited with the banks
and the tax payers would have made the
large profits which the banks now enjoy
But that would not bring any grist to the

Bounties Versus Protection.

Over in Canada the government il
having trouble with some OF the protect
ed steel plants about the amount OF
bounty due them. 1t says the manufac"
turers are net entitled to all they claim.
This shows what a coarse, clumsy sys-
tenn they have there in comparison with
our smooth working tariff system. The
Canadian manufacturers are only ask
ing for a few millions a year in %bounties,
while one of our steel manufacturing
organizations, by mean of the tariff
system, took about $40, 000, 900 from the
people last year, and there was no dis
pute with the government as to the
amount, and only now and then a few
trifing kicks from the %plundered vic
tins. A small sum like So, 900, 900 OF
4 1000, 900 looks big when taken openly
from the government treasury and
turned over to the trusts; but 70,000,-
900 can be taken secretly and given to the
trusts and not a word will be said. The
bounty system is not Gin 1t" with pro-

FOUL CRIMEAT BEDFORD, IND.
Miss Sarah Schaefer, aSchoolT Teach
er, Assaulted and Murdered.
There Is Much Excitement Over the
Murder and PerpetratOr Will
Be Lynched IL Caught.

Bedford, Ind, Jan. 23.-The body OF
Mss Sarah Schaefer, teacher of Latin
IN the Bedford high school, was found
In a carriage house Friday. She had
been assaulted and robbed, and the
body was badly mutilated. The ap-
~pearances of the shed indicated a terri
Bile struggle with her assailant. Miss
Schaefer came here from Elkhart, Ind.
1t has developed that a whisp of mus
tache was found in the clutches OF
the victim, and upon this clew the
police and a number of private detec-
tives are basing their investigation.
Miss Schaefer's umbrella was found
open in a barn lot "a the shed. A
Urtck, with which the wounds were
inflicted. has also been found, GOV.
cred with blood.
A negro was said to have been seer
zeal the alley where the assault was
committed about the time that Miss
Schaefer left her boarding house.
B~loodhounds were given the scent
but could follow it not more than
if4y yards from the place where the
body was found. A whisky bottle
coming from a saloon in the city was
found about fifty feet from the shed.
Evidence that Miss Schaefer, the
murdered girl received two anonymous
letters threatening her with punish.
ment if she did not change her board.
ing place from the home of DR.. d. d.
Nicholson has been disclosed. Miss
Schaefer subsequently changed her
residence for fear that the threat
might be carried out. Those familiar
with the letters have been charged
to make no statement.
Deputy Prosecutor Stephenson said
Friday night:
III a man is arrested only on sus
picion and two people know it he will
be lynched."
A dragnet is to be instituted
throughout the surrounding country,
and all suspicious characters will be
compelled to prove their whereabouts
on the night of the murder.

M. Z. Gee, M. d.
Catarrh is a systemic disease, durable
only by systemic treatment. A remedy
that cures catarrh must aim directly at
the depressed nerve centers. This is
what Peruna does.
Peruna Immediately invigorates the
~nerve-centers which give vitality to the
mucous membranes. Then catarrh dis
appears. Then catarrh is permanently
cured.

A note of family pride was struck in the
boys the other day. The parts played by
their respective grandfathers in the civil war
were being depicted by two of the boys in
vivid colors. The career of each, it seemed,
had been halted by confinement in southern
prisons, and it was on the latter fact that the
lads laid particular stress. The third youth,
unable to match these r~ecitals with any
military achievement Of his own forefathers,

Other Prominent Physicians Use
and Endorse Pe-ru-na.

DR LLEWELLYN Jordan, Medical
IL Examiner of the U. s. Treasury
Department, graduate of Columbia Col
lege, and who served three years at West
Point, has the following to say of Peruna:
"AIIoW me to express my graft
fude to yOuf for the benefit derived
from your wonderful remedy.
One short month has brought
forth a vast change and / now
consider myself a well man after
months of suffering. Fellow suf-
fererS, Peruna will cure you"
A constantly increasing number of
physicians prescribe Peruna in their
practice. 1t has proven its merits SO
thoroughly that even the doctors have
overcome their prejudice against So
called observation-disclosures and recommend
it to their patients.
Peruna occupies a unique position in
medical science. 1t is the only internal
systemic catarrh remedy known to the
medical profession to-day. Catarrh, as
everyone will admit, is the cause of one
half the disease which affiicts mankind.
Catarrh and catarrhal diseases affiict
one-half of the people of United States.
