slashed with his own razor, there was
not anything on which an investiga-

Hope was given to the convicted
mans friends about three years ago
when a notorious burglar who had
been confined in the Michigan City
prison made an alleged confession In
which he stated that he was mem
ber of a gang that entered the Hin
shaw home on the night of the crime
and that they perpetrated the mur-

the purpose of. obtaining notoriety or

Indianapolis. Ind. June 29.-The
tenth annual national Prohibition
convention opened today in Tomlin

mates and visitors present. Among
the pictures hung over the platform
was one of Lincoln National Chair
man Stewart in introducing Rev. Geo.
Fl. Peke. of Sandusky. Ohio, to make
the opening prayer. said: There is
one convention where the opening
prayer is not a mock formality, and
it is now about to be opened"
W. S. Doan welcomed the dele
gates on behalf of the Prohibition
lists of Indiana. When he mentioned
the name of General Miles there was
a burst of applause.
Chairman Stewart introduced Ho-
mer l.. Castle of PittsbaFg4 as tempo
rary chairman. In his speech the
temporary chairman referred to po.
lygamy as,s.the canker worm of the
west; and added, "This problem must
be solved by a braver lot of men
than Republican or Democratic sena-
tors" He referred to the trust and
other issues of the day, but declared
that above all these is the problem
of what to do with the 250,000 sa-
looms of the land. He said the solu-
ton of this question would never
come from THAT crowd of inane be-
collared men who gathered in Chi
cago last week, or from that crowd
of uncaged hyenas who will convene
at st. Louis next week."
After the committees were an
nounced recess was taken until two
O'Clock The committee on permanent
organization selected A.. G. Wolfen-
Sbacger of Lincoln. Neb., for perma

To have a pleasant chance
To attend a jolly picnic.
At the Slaughter Hereford ranch.
The carriages were all so crowded.
Enough to break car OF steel,
That dozen boys had TO go
A humping on their wheel
Up Main street to Second,
Down Second to Hondo branch.
We soon stood by crystal fountains
At the Slaughter Hereford ranch.
The scenes were most delightful.
AS teachers and children played.
Tanned by heavens sweetest gephyrs
In a paradise of shade.
When the teachers spread the dinner
Near a sparkling crystal branch.
II looked like heavenly mama.
AT the Slaughter Hereford ranch.
When we looked upon the scenes de-
lightful
We thought of a time To come,
When the teachers both and children
Should have happy heavenly
home.
Amid heavens radiant beauties,
We all may have a chance
To talk about this jolly picnic
At the Slaughter Hereford ranch.
