are Icing freely H-aIe tI-at the st.
Louis convention VIII res 1t in aaother
split in the DemoCraI.c Parry that will
take the radicals and conservatives
farther apart than they are q. this
time. 1t is belieN ed that no action that
can be taken by the conservative ele-
ment viii be satisfactory to the Bryan
wing OF tie party, ana that the Bryan
ties will make no concessions that will
bring the other branch of the party
into harmony. Special dispatches
from st. Louis Monday say the Indi-

Following a suggestion made by
Coroner TuteWiler, an ordinance will
be introduced in the city council pro-
places along White river and Fall
creek for public bathing. The coroner
pointed out that eighteen deaths from

have occurred so far this year. Many
of the fatalities could be averted, he
said, by establishing public bathing
places along the river and creek, put
ting them IN charge OF policemen who
are good swimmers, ana equipping
them with li1e-5oving apparatus. AS

indianapolis Prohibitionists are fear
full that the work of the national con-
vention which was held here last week
must be done over. Letters received
by local members of the party from
DR.. Swallow, the presidential nominee,
indicate that he is not at all certain
as to whether he wants the nomina-
ton. DR.. Swallow in his letters thanks
the Indianapolis men who helped nom
mate him, but says his private affairs
are in such shape as to make it doubt
full il he can accept the nomination.
In case he should refuse his successor
on the ticket would be named by the
national committee
indianapolis doctors favor the adop.
ton of law by the next legislature
making it a criminal offense for drug
gists to sell carbolic acid or any poison
except on the prescription of regular
physician. Such law, they say,
would reduce the number of suicides
in the state, and as the suicide rate is
rapidly increasing in Indiana, they
think a law along these lines should
be enacted. Cooperation of doctors

to be thoroughly enjoyed by the big
crowd.

with a few weeks of warm weather
will be a record breaker in many sec
tions. Little trouble from cutworms
