Land Left by Shifting River
Belongs to Adjacent Owner

Because White river changed its course
and left forty acres of new land in Owen
county the person who held mortgage on
the original ground nov also holds the new
ground. This was deciued by the Appellate
Court yesterday in the case of John NJ.
Leonard against Lulu Wood and others.
Leonard acquired title to the land by mort
gage foreclosure, and shortly after fore
closure the stream changed its course and
left the forty acres. Lulu Wood then
claimed that the forty acres belonged to
her, as on the original mortgage the land
extended only to the river bank. But the
court held that whoever held the land ada
cent to a river bank likewise held the land
over which the river flowed.

The United States Supreme Court, i'll a
majority opinion, five Justices concur
ring, on Monday declared the Northern
Securities Company combination in vio-
lation of the Sherman Anti Trust law,
upholding the contention of the govern
ment and affirming the decree of the
United States Circuit Court for the Dis
trict of Minnesota in every particular.
The Northern Securities Company is a
trust" within the meaning of the act.
1t is intended to prevent competition and
has the power to restrain commerce be-
tween the States. All contracts in re-
straint of trade, whether reasonable or
unreasonable, are prohibited by act OF
Congress, whose power to regulate COM
merce between the States is complete.
The division in the court turned upon
a difference of opinion as to the right OF
Federal control of State corporations.
The majority opinion proceeded on the
theory that Congress has a right, under
the Constitution, to control interstate
commerce, no matter by whom conducted.

Proper Treatment of Pneumonia.

Pneumonia is too dangerous disease
for anyone to attempt to doctor himself,
although he may have the proper rem
edies at hand. physician should always
be called. 1t should be borne in mind,
however, that pneumonia always results
from, cold or from an attack of the
grip, and that by giving Chamberlain S
Cough Remedy the threatened attack of
pneumonia may be warded off. This
remedy is also used by physicians in the
treatment of pneumonia with the best
results. DR.. w. ]. Smith, of Sanders.
Ala, who is also druggist, says of it: 81

Remedy and prescribing it in my practice

An Echo of the Coal Strike.

The report of Edward w. Parker on the
production of coal in 1902, just issued by
the United States Geological Survey.
gives a review of labor troubles during
that year and their effect upon the coal
production. An extract from the report:
''The troubles in the anthracite district
resulted in decrease of nearly 40 per
cent in production to the operators, as
compared with 1901. Approximately
I45.ooo men were idle for oS working
days, and the public was put to greater
inconvenience and annoyance for want of
fuel than had ever been known before in
the history of the country. It is esti-
mated that the total number of working
days lost by this strike was I4,2Io. 900,
which, at an average of g. so a day,
meant loss of about SIS, ZOO, 900 in
wages.
The attitude of the mine owners on the
occasion of this memorable strike is fresh
in the memory of the people. 1t was to
the arrogance and insolence of bakers
dozen of these coal barons in their refusal
to treat with the Miners Union, that this
strike with its train of annoyance. misery
and loss is chargeable, and it was only
alarm at the mutterings of an indignant
and slowly arousing public which threat
eued to wrest the mines from the hand:
of their private owners and place then
under government control, where they
rightfully belong, that induced thes,
"divinely appointed" custodians of the
peoples property to agree to submit tc
the awards of an arbitration commission
appointed at the instigation Of the
President.

A Boon For the Banks.

The money power having succeeded in
bonding Cuba for as large amounts as it
can bear, says ar exchange. are now pro-
ceeding to play the same game with the
Philippines. Bills are before Congress to
issue Philippine bonds far up into the
millions. The people Of this country
have an interest in that, for the bonds
are all to be issued on the credit of the
United States. BY the time the canal
and Philippine bonds are all issued, the
bankers will have enough to start a
national bank in every village in the
whole United States.

A special committee of the Senate is
investigating Senator Dietrich, of Ne
braska, charged with having used his
official position to his financial advantage.
1t is another postoffice scandal.
Senator Quay's health continues to de-
cline, and he constantly loses flesh.
The case Of Beavers, one of the indicted
Post Office officials, was argued before
the Supreme Court on the 10th inst,
upon technical questions concerning his
indictment in district Brooklyn, N. W
where the crime was not committed.
The President has ordered all employees
of the government to refrain from saying
anything during the war which might
irritate European or Asiatic nations.
Nv
Secretary Moody of the Navy Depart
ment, says be would discharge clerks who
are incompetent whether from age or
general inefficiency, and that he does not
see why old government clerks are en-
titled to any more sympathy and consid-
Grafton than old dry goods clerks or old
farm hands. 1t is reported that he ad-
vocates new solution of the ''senility"
problem-the instant discharge of all
clerks who do not lay up something for a
rainy day out of the generous salaries
paid by the government. This would
dispense with the services of thousand
spendthrifts and dead beats-men who
are always in debt, and who borrow
money at FIVE per cent month and have
creditors after them all the time. These
improvident livers do not deserve to be-
long to any respectable corps of laborers.
and it would solve several problems if
they we're instantly discharged whenever
found out-among others the problem
how to support superannuated clerks who
have spent all their money.

The Smoot investigation continues with
varying interest. The Apostles frankly
admit that they violate the laws. The
President of the Mormon church thinks
the laws ambiguous When Edmunds
bound them mot to practice polygamy"
he thought it meant not to take any
wives in addition TO those already pos
sessed. If it meant to bind them and
command them to desert all their wives
but one, and to abandon their children,
he would refuse to obey it, whether the
command was from God or man. He is
ready, he says, to take his punishment.

FROST FAIRIES.
The Wonderful Designs That Win
dow Panes Picture.

The Wonderful Designs That Win
dow Panes Picture.
When the frost fairies have a mate
rial ready for original design they often
produce in the hours of darkness most
exquisite decorations The window
panes are their drawing paper, and the
window frames serve as picture frames
on those particular occasions. There
are said to be no less than thousand
forms of snow crystals, every one of
them of the finest finish and of unim-
peachable symmetry. Some are like
the patterns in honiton lace, while 9TH
ers are elaborated with geometrical
patterns SO complex that it is difficult
to analyze them. But on the window
panes the frost pictures are by no
means confined to what are standard
patterns in snowfakes, but show the
most various and dainty schemes Of
ornament. Some are like starry flow
ers, set with stars in the center and
with starry shoots and comets flying
into space around them. Others take
the shape of leaves arranged in set
form by some human designers. The
endive pattern is among the most beau
tiful, the curves and motive" being
often scarcely distinguishable from
those in which goldsmith of the days
of Louis XIV. modelled the ormolu in
which he graced some priceless vase Of
jasper or crystal. Scale patterns, like
the scales of fishes, with striated lines
upon the overlapping disks. wavy pat
terms, set with stars, fern patterns,
moss patterns and formalized sprays
of maidenhair are among the choicest
on the list.-London Spectator.
