The Mozart Musical club held their
last concert of this season at the
church of God Wednesday evening.
The concert was under the special d.
rection of Prof. w. P. MacHenry who
has directed the Mozart Club since
last March. The choruses showed the
careful drilling and painstaking labor
of both the instructor and the club.
All numbers were rendered par ex.
cellence and all were encored, especial
ly fine were the two numbers by Prof.
MacHenry. Tie harpeSt Mrs. b. Z.
Kreighbaum, deserves special mention
as also does the solo sung by Miss
Emma Yockey who was accompanied
by the violinist Prof. Van Aiken.
In addition to the regular program
Prof Van Aiken treated the audience
with one of his delightful violin solos.
He was encored twice.
Robert Adair" the piano solo given
by Miss F. Smith was highly appre-
ciated.
The second part of the program
consisted of the Song Cycle, entitled
Hawthorne and Lavender" 1t was
sung by the Misses Neff, Hoham, vi
nall and Yockey, accompanied by Mrs.
Edna Corbaley. The "Cycle" consist
ed of ten parts, three Of which were
solos and seven quartettes: The three
solos were sung by the Misses Neff,
Hoham and Vinall-They singing re-
spectiyely, This is the Moon of the
Roses" "The Downs" and "After
the Grim Daylight. This was a
classical piece and the ladies deserve
much praise in their rendition Of this
classical number.
All IN all, the ladies deserve much
praise for the first class entertain
ment they gave the public, and
though they had q fair-sized house,
the club should have been better pat
ronized than it was. This is their
last appearance before the public un-
til next September when they will
sing at the United Brethren minis
terial conference to be held IN this
city.
Next week the club elects the Of
ficers for the ensuing year. 1t is much
to their regret that Prof. MacHenry,
who is going to move TO Detroit. can
not be with them next season.

"VlVIAN'S PAPA'S"
At Powers Theatre, Chicago.

Rich and Harris Comedians, headed
by Blanch Ring and Leo Ditrichstein
have made one of the few triumps of
recent theatrlcals IN Chicago, at Pow
ers' Theatre. One of the local critics
in praiSlng the piece and the produc-
tiOn said that "for this relief from the
usual run of musical comedy much
thanks" for in "Vivian's Papa's
we have a rapid action, racy, up-to-
date farce, involving American char
acters, all of whom come under the
spell of Eighty and fascinating
chorus girl, Vivian, (played by Miss
Ring1 who gets into all sorts Of EN-
barrassing complications before mat
tiers are straightned out in the last act.
Miss Ring is the engaging young
woman, who is the most recent hit
among the young performers in New
York City-and now in Chlcago-and
last winter she added to her American
aurels by playing an extended engage
ment at the famous Savoy Theatre, in
London, which was for so many years
the home of the Gilbert and Sullivan
operas. AS singer Miss Ring has
renown both upon the legitimate and
the vaudeville stage, and in the Sec
ond act of Mr.. Detrichstein's farce
she sings three of the songs she has
made famous-the Irish ballad "Bede-

Democracy by Injunction.

At Plymouth controversy arose
between the publisher of the Demo-
GRAFT and the county treasurer and the
county treasurer sent his official pub
licatlons to the democratic paper at
Bourbon for publication. The Dem
0crat asked the court for an Injunction
restraining the treasurer from select
ing the Bourbon paper as the leading
democratic paper in the county. The
case came up before Judge Adalr, of
Columbia City, and he stated that it
was out of his jurisdiction to pass up
on what paper the official political or
gan of the county, and the matter was
dismissed upon motion of the defend
ant. The matter was heretofore tried
before Judge Bernetha in which the
temporary restraining order was is.
sued he also holding it was out of bis
Jurisdiction. This would leave the
question very much one for the county
official to decide for himself. The
court further said that what might be
the leading democratic paper one day
might ere the month be the leading
republican paper; and that the ques-
tion of greatest circulation was also
one that could be changed in few
weeks. and the court could not say
which would be the leading paper at
the close Of the year.-Kewanna Her.

The tariff reformers at various times
have been agitated by what they call
the copper trust. Finally they discov-
cred that copper ore is on the free list
and most of them ceased to use this
particular illustration. though they
still proclaim that the tariff is the
mother of trusts, thus conveniently
forgetting of course that IL this is
true, then in this case Of the copper
trust we have a creature that comes
into the world without a mother. At
the same time they might explain the
window glass business. II is true that
there is a company that the newspa-
pers speak of as the window glass
trust, but this company lacks so much
Of being a monopoly that the competi-
ton has been of the keenest sort for
years. And yet in the Mckinley law
and in the Wilson-Gorman law and in
the Dingley law the duty on window
glass has been very high. Notwith-
standing this it has been impossible TO
form a trust or a combination Of any
sort that would prevent the liveliest Of
competition. Here are two cold facts
of more than ordinary importance in
the business world that ought to be
known to everybody-two facts that,
standing alone, are sufficient to take
the pith out of the theory that the
tariff is the mother of trusts. And
these are but two of numerous facts,
all giving the direct lie to this tariff
theory. But what has the tariff re-
former to do with facts?

Eat Before Going to Bed,

A short time since physicians held
that eating of food immediately before
retiring almost crime. The old the
DRY is quite exploded. One medical
journal, in commenting on the subject
recently, said that while it is not good,
as a matter of fact, to 60 to bed with
the stomach so loaded that the undi-
gested food win render one restless,
still something of light, palatable
nature in the stomach is one of the
best aids to quietude and rest.
The process of digestion goes on in
sleep with as much regularity as when
one is taking violent exercise to aid it.,
and so something in the stomach is
very desirable for the nights rest.
Some physicians have declared, in
deed, that good deal Of the prevalent
insomnia is the result of an uncon-
scious craving of the stomach for
food in persons who have been unduly
frightened by the opinion that they
must not eat before going to bed, OF
who have, like many nervous women,
been keeping themselves in state of
semi-starvation. Nothing is more
agreeable on retiring for the night
than to take a bowl of hot broth, oat-
meal Cruel or some good nourishing
soup. 1t is positive aid to nervous
people, and induces peacesuI slumbers.
This is especially the case during
cold winter nights, when the stomach
Graves warmth as much as any other
part of the body. Even a glass of
hot milk is grateful to the palate on
such occasions, but bowl Of light,
well cooked Cruel is better, and dur
ing the cold months of winter should
be the retiring food of every woman
who feels, as many do, the need OF
food at night.-Indianapolis Sentinel

II is incredible, but it seems to be
true, that most of the Democratic lead
ers appear to be ignorant of the tariff
history of Great Britain, which for SO
many years was held up to us as a
paragon of fiscal and industrial wis
dom. The truth is that England built
up an enormous trade under the policy
of protection. When her commercial
supremacy was established and when
ii was assumed that England could
successfully compete with all other ma
tons, free trade was considered. But
not until the free traders of that coun-
try were led to believe that other eoun-
themselves adopt 1t. But the drift Of
the world since then has been in the
other direction, and even England's
experience has not been satisfactory.
So now, as John Sharp William, the
Democratic leader in the house, has
publicly declared, even free trade Brit
ain is on the way back to protection.
After centuries of success under pro-
lection and a half century of disap-
pointment under free trade, Great Brit
ain prepares to join the other nations
in the drift toward protection. Here
is fact of overwhelming significance
that everybody should keep in mind
all the while if he is to have a grasp
of the tariff question that he needs in
order to vote intelligently on the sub
tect OF course the leaders of the Dem
ocratic party are not all willing to ad-
NIT this, and there are a good many
reasons to believe that some of them
do not even know the facts In the case,
incredible as this ignorance seems

It has become a proverb that a
national campaign is always a bad
time for business Give a thought to
this fact and it is not difficult to I'M
derstand. There is always more or
less uncertainty as to the result. The
future is inevitably somewhat in doubt.
A possible change of administration
means a probable c-ange of conditions.
The merchant, for example, has no
means of determining just what this
change will be. He buys, therefore.
only what he is compelled 10 buy to
meet immediate demands Thus there
is less demand for manufactured prod
utS, the factories are required to re-
trench, fewer operatives are needed,
and thus there is less demand for la
Dor. This leads to a reduction in pur-
chases and mere again the merchant
has still more reason to cut down his
orders; this again reduces the demand
for the manufacturers products, and
then again comes diminished demand
for labor. So until election day we
have an endless chain of causes all
tending toward a depression in bust
ness. Now add to this the fact that the
tendency among merchants in ordinary
times is to buy further and still fur
Their ahead. notwithstanding the in
crease in facilities for communication
and ransportation,-we say add this
fact to the others. and the wonder is
that pinchlng depression in business
had not come good while ago. And
so it would have been. had it not been
for the prevailing impression that
there will be no change at the coming
election.

lature changed the date for various
reasons. At this time of the year
some Of the squirrels are too young to
have any cunning and they fall an easy
prey to the gun of the hunter. A
few months added to their period OF
safety willmake them harder to kill
and will give them a better chance fol
their life. This year it is unlawful to
kill squirrel before the first day OF
August. Atthat time, however, they
may be killed and from that time on
