Stringent, Say Litigants

The validity of the city's milk ordinance

CITY, SUED BY THE OSGOOD
ESTATE, HEARD IN COURT
Assessment on Sidewalks, Says
Defense, Must Be Paid in Full
by Trustee.
NOW UNDER AMUSEMENT

Judge McMaster yesterday heard argu-
ment in the case of the Marion Trust
Company as trustee for the NJ. ]. Osgood
Estate ct al against the city of Indian
aDolis as 10 the right of the city to assess
the full amount of costs against abutting
property owners for the construction OF
sidewalks.
The question arose out Of the attempt of
the city to collect costs for the construction
of sidewalks on Central avenue abutting
the property of the Osgood estate and
Judge Merle y. A. Walker. The plainuns
commended that according TO state statutes,
they are liable for only half the costs of
the construction of the walks, while the
defendants hold that costs for the full
amount should be paid by owners of prop
ertv adjoining the sidewalks constructed.
The court will take the question under ad-
viSement.

Selling Impure Milk

Samuel Healing, a dairyman. was yester-
day arraigned in Circuit Court on the
charge of selling to his customers adulter-
ated milk. An attempt was made by the

lated the city ordinance of 1902 which re-
uuires that all milk sold by darymen shall
under analysis contain SO butter fat.
The testimony of the defense was that If
the milk did not contain the required per-
centage of butter fat it was without his
knowledge. The case was taken under ad-
visement by Judge Allen.

DOING ONES BEST,
1t Is a Good Character Forming Hab-
 1t to Cultivate.

1t Is Good Character Forming Hab-
 1t to Cultivate.
 This habit of always doing ones best enters into the very marrow of ones heart and character. It affects ones bearing, ones self possession. The man who does everything to a finish has feeling of serenity. He is not easily thrown off his balance. He has nothing to fear, and he can look the world in the face because he feels con sciOus that he has not put shoddy into anything, that he has had nothing 10 do with shams and that he has al- ways done his level best. The sense of efficiency, of being master of ones craft, of being equal to any emergency, the consciousness of possessing the abil ity to do with superiority whatever one undertakes, will give soul satisfaction which half hearted slipshod worker never knows.
 When a man feels throbbing within him the power to do what he under takes as well as it can possibly be done, and all his faculties say Amen" to what he is doing and give their unqual- flied approval to his efforts-this Is happiness, this Is success. This buoy ant sense Of power spurs the faculties to their fullest development. It un- folds the mental. the moral and the physical forces. and this very growth, the consciousness of an expanding men, tality and of a broadening horizon, gives an added satisfaction beyond the power of words to describe. It is realization of nobility. the divinity of the mind.-Success.

The DDrAEnl uLuSe.

A New York liagistrate and his friend were returning from a banquet arm in arm and were giving way to mirth and song when they found themselves confronted by the police. The magistrate made his escape, but on the following day as he sat on the bench, grave, dignified and alert, as usual," he saw his dear and valued friend charged with being drunk and disorderly. He listened to the charge unmoved beyond pained expression on his face and, after calling upon the prisoner to explain his conduct, ad- dressed him in his most severely judi cial manner and in scathing tones. Never had he heard more disgraceful case, and it was so much the more dis graceful from the fact that the pris- oner evidently was respectfully con- nected and moved in what was called (here he became very sarcasticl good society. He felt it was a matter where leniency would be surely out of place, and the fine must be the maximum which the law allowed.

A Strange Explosion.

A celebrated uoctor ill Reims, while visiting q patient and listening to his troubles, put his hand ill his pocket and mechanically rubbed together some pastils which were there. Suddenly a slight explosion took place, and at the same time the doctor experienced a sharp pain in his hand. Upon exami- nation he found that the bottom of his pocket was burned out and that his under linen was much scorched, while one of his fingers was also injured.
 He remembered that he had carried in his pocket for some days two pasttls containing chlorate of potash and one pastil containing chlorate of sugar. The last named was broken into little pieces, while of the potash pastils one was intact, but no trace could be found of the other. It seems that the doctor had rubbed the chlorate of potash pas til against the chlorate of sugar pastil and that at the point of contact small quantity of explosive powder had been formed. This had ignited, with the re- suit that the chlorate of potash pastil had been instantly decomposed.

When James Russell Lowell was minister to England, he was guest at a banquet at which one of the speak CTS was Sir Frederick Bramwell. Sir Frederick was to respond to the toast, Applied Science" It was long after midnight when the toast was pro- posed, and several speakers were still to be called. Rising in his place, the scientist said:
 At this hour of the night, or, rather, of the morning, my only interest in ap- piled science is to apply the tip of the match to the side of the box upon which alone it ignites and to apply the flame so obtained to the wick of bed room candle"
 A moment later Lowell tossed a pa per across the table to him bearing these two lines: Oh, brief Sir Frederick, would that all

Legends of the Owl and Raven. In some parts of Europe an omelet made from the eggs of the long cared owl is believed to be an effective cure for drunkenness.
 In Germany the raven is supposed to be able to procure magic stone that gives instability to the wearer. It is apparently not a simple matter to ob- tain, for ill the first place, after dis covering the nest, you must satisfy yourself that the old birds are at least over century old Then you climb to the nest and must either take out an egg, boil it hard and replace it, or if there should be young you must kill q male nestling-it must Ee male-und replace 1t also. After this the spot must be most carefully marked, for the parent bird, if he is old enough, will return with the magic stone, which will render the nest invisible, and it is apparently from the spot where you judge the nest ought to be that you must pluck the Westminster ~

Saved 5 Cents and Lost 80

A big mill-owner, Spartansburg, s. O., wanted 5000 gallons of paint, and bought by price; paid 5 cents less than Devoe; got "lead-and, zinc" paint; but the lead was sul- phate of lead, not carbonate. Sul- phate costs about half; and covers about half.
 That paint was adulterated about six times as much as the cents paid for. He "saved" 5 cents; and it cost him 30.
 Oh no; it cost him more than that we forgot the labor. Can't work it out exactly; don't know how long it'll wear.
 Short-measure besides; that alone was twice as much as his saving" 5 cents.
 It was thin, too; some loss there don't know how much.
 There was too much dryer in it.. The maker made something on that he didn't.
 Taking it altogether, he didn't make much by that 5 cents.

 ''Now, you scoundrel, I've got you in a place where no one can hear, and I'll just thrash you within an inch of your lifev
 The servant, though man of power full physique. squirmed, native-like. "Sah, you sure no one can hear?'
 "Yes, you scoundrel; I've brought you here on purpose!'
 "Then, sah, think I thrash you!' And he did it so thoroughly that his master was not visible for week.
