Rome, Oct. 14.-There will be great
doings in Rome in November and De-
cember for the celebration of another
Jubilee Of the Immaculate Concep-
tion and the holding of Marian
Congress" at which all countries will
be represented. This congress will
be held In the vast church OF the
twelve apostles, and in the halls of
the Cancellaria and the Roman Semi

could do previously. Both Russia
and Japan have for some years
adopted these wonderful engines, and
as they were being supplied to other
great military powers of Europe, it
was deemed advisable by the war
office to place itself on level terms
with these countries. The authorities
however, did not order the machines
until they had sent a special COM
mission round to all the likely firms
of machine manufacture in Britain to
see if similar instruments could be
obtained at home. 1t was found that
nobody made them in England, and
the one or two firms willing to make
them, wanted such big prices that the
government found itself compelled to
go to the only firm in the world
which makes a feature of this special
article for the benefit of warlike ad-
ministrations.

TRIBUTE TO AMERICAN
INGENUITY

London, Oct. IA leading London
journal in its latest issue pays the
following high tribute to American
ingenuity:
There are sometimes occasions,
says the article in question, when it
does not pay to be too patriotic. This
especially applies to governments
when the stern necessity arises for
keeping pace with rival administra-
lions in the matter of up to date war
department and preparedness for
material contingencies. A case Of
this nature has, we learn, recently
been propounded to our own govern
ment, with the result that its desire
to patronize home industries has had
for once to be placed in the back
ground. We refer to large purchase
Of machinery which has just been
made by the war office for installa-
ton in Woolwich arsenal. The ma
chimes, consisting of set of eight
clever instruments for the manufac-
ture of artillery, carriages and wagon
wheels, have been obtained from our

The discoveries that have been
made in connection with the value Of
so-called freproof buildings in the
Baltimore and Rochester fires continue
to furnish an unlimited supply of ma
terial for comment in fire insurance
circles all over the country, as the
Baltimore fire was the first thorough
test to which the modern fire-proof
had been submitted in a
conflagration, and the Granite bull
ding, in Rochester, was the first of
its kind to be submitted to a similar
test.
The net result of expert surveys is
that the steel frame buildings that
were subjected to intense heat from
without and within may be restored
to their condition before the fire for
about 40 per cent. Of their origional
value. When it is remembered what
these buildings were subjected to, q
that the heat within them was sufic-
lent to fuse the globes on the chan
dellerS and to melt the cast iron fra
mes on the typewriters; that every
combustible thing within them was
annihilated, even its ashes being
swept away by the blast, it may safe
ly be assumed that the condition IN
which these buildings was found when
the work OF repairing them was be-
guz answers for the first time author

arisen Is to the freresistlng qualities

A Strange Suicide.

With a smile on his lips and the re-
mark to his mother thai he would
hurry up and do the chores before his
father came home from town, Andrew
Anderson, l5-year.old son Of Charles
Anderson, residing on the Closer
farm, four miles north Of LaPorte,
skipped out Of the house Saturday eve-
ming, picked up a rope at the barn and
then hurrying to the woods half a
mile away climbed a tree and after tv-
ing one end to a limb and adjusting
the other about his neck jumped off
into eternity. His body, swinging
from the limb 25 feet above the
ground, was found by the agonized
father Sunday morning. Utterly i'm
penetrable is the mystery which sur
rounds the aus for the act, the only
theory advanced being that the lad
became temporarily insane and while
laboring under some hallucinatlon
took his own life.

After a Pension.

Fooled Bank Robbers.

L. NJ. Warne who built and operat-

resides at Amboy, Ind. He had been
to Marion on business Friday and did
nou get home until after midnight.
When he was passing the Miami
County Banka a Amboy, he heard a
noise inside and at once hurried IT, the
residence of Ora Atchinson, the banks
cashier. Armed with a shot gun and
a revolver both hurried to the bank.
Just before they reached the building
the safe was blown. One OF the rob-
bers stationed on the outside saw
Warne and Atchinson approaching
and opened fire on them, wounding
Atchinson in the hip. Warne and
Atchinson returned the fire and the
robbers ran out at the front door. A
running battle ensued and many cit
liens OF the town were aroused by the
explosion and Tie SnOtS joined In the
pursuit but the robbers escaped,
though it is believed both of them
were wounded.
The safe door was torn of and the
front OF the building blown out.
About $50. which was in a small box
among the banks books, is missing,
but the bulk of the money was undis-
tuIbed. The door leading to it, how
ever. was cracked by the explosion,
and had not the two men arrived
and opened fire. the robbers
would have been successful in obtain
ing several Thousand dollars.

Work is Cut Out For Japan.

If the report be true'that Russia
has 23O, 900 soldiers between Hardin
and Port Arthur, then Japan has a
nard task ahead. 1t is certain that
Russia is pushing troops over it's sim
gle track railway just as fast as the
facilities of that road will permit. 1t
is also certain that the ear will strain
the resources of his empire to put up
a Ihard fight against the japanese.
His prestige not only in Europe,
but in Asia, depends on the front
which he makes to the japanese adj
vance into Manchuria. The land
fighting will be done in Ms.nchuria,
and the caution of the japanese in
making movements in that territory
shows that they are clearly impressed
with the difficulties of the situation.
These are not likely to diminish in the
lapse of time. More Russian troops
will be on the firing line next June
than are there now, while Japan's
chances for making gains In it's fight
ing strength at the front will proba-
bly, be at their highest point before
that time.
This is the reason why japan has
not pushed into the enemy's country
as rapidly on land as it did on the
water. The task of transporting
200, 600 troops by water is a gigantic
job, and if japan has this many troops
in the northerly half of Korea now, as
rumor says, she has made pro-
gress beyond that ever attained by any
other power in any war in the same
length of time. This task would put
the shipping facilities of even Eng
land to their utmost limit. Some of
the German military authorities who
pretended to be converSant with the
Russian situation from observation on
the ground, estimated that the car
had 200, 900 troops in Manchuria at
the beginning of 1904. Thus Japan
was confronted with a large task on
the start. 1t is probably true that,
man for man, the japanese are SUI
perior to the Russians as campaigners
and fighters. But they are confront
ed with superior numbers. They
have the advantage of having their
choice of several points of attack,
while Russia is compelled to guard all
those points and others,

Jerseys Sell Well.

Farmers Guide, Mar. 19, 19O4.-Mr.
Henry Vanblaricom, a neighbor of
mine, sold his small herd of Jersey
cattle at public auction a few days
ago: There were twenty-five COWS,
heifers and calves in the sale and one
seldom sees such spirited bidding.
The crowd was truly Jersey hungry,
and would have taken four times as
many animals as were offered. The
COWS made an average of s73. All
but three had been bred and raised by
Mr.. Vanblaricom, or purchased by
him when calves. He is a good Judge
of milk cows, gave them good care
and they paid him we'll. One cow
that brought S77 vas purchased at
the last October sale held at Indian.
apolis, She came fresh in November
and on day of sale had paid her cost
price In profit and had a surplus to
her credit. Another GOV that cost
him $40 when a calf, and that he re-
fused S75 for before she had her first
calf, vas brought into the ring with
her four daughters. This COW is only
five years old and was bid off at S78.
Her three-year-old daughter sold for
SS4, the ~two-year-old n for S65. the
yearling for $50 and her sucking calf
for S25.
At this sale these twenty-five ami.
mails were taken by the neighbors,
who were well acquainted with them.
This shows how popular the Jersey is
in Fulton county. They were all
making their owner a fine profit, but
falling health made it necessary for
him to change his occupation. and
gave others an opportunity to get
some good foundation stock.
During the past year our county
has experienced a wonderful awaken
Ing along dairy lines. The location
of a creamery plant at III county
seat IS giving the farmers an object
lesson that bulges their pocket-books.
The persons who sell cream are get
ting an average of ten cents more a
pound for the butter in it than their
neighborS who churn and sell the but
ter at the stores. 1t was freely stated
at this sale that the establishment of
this creamery had added ten dollars
to the value Of every good cow in the
county. But the most surprising
thing connected with this new bust
ness is the large number of cream
s~eparators that are being sold. These
new dairymen are taking hold of the
work in the right manner, and a few
years will witness a great change in
both farm fertility and farm bank &C
counts.
