GIRLS BOYCOTT THEIR BEAUs.
Proclamation Signed by Twenty Young
Women of Logansport, Ind.

"Tightwad Beaux' is the caption of a
proclamation signed by twenty young
women of Logansport, Ind, and to be
published by them. in which they protest
against the selfishness of the young men
Of the town.
The petition says:
This is a complaint from representa-
tive girls of I.oganspOrt, who cry for
relief from condition which has pre-
vailed since L0gansport was founded.
I'VE refer to the utter sefishness of
the city's young men. They are content
to sit around our homes, allowing MS to
fan them. sing, or play for them. They
eat our fudge and bestow the blessing
of their company upon us. But when
anything comes up involving the cXpendi-
turc If money it's a different matter.
III smiles cost the young men any
thing they would not be so generous
even with them. Such a thing as taking
Il girl buggy riding or To a theater, or
sending her sweets, flowers, books, or
music is unknown.
THE boys in other Indiana towns are
not this way. We are tired of it, and
wish to say so in plain English \ hint

The original twenty signers of the APP
peal announce their intention of crusad-
ing against the closefisted swains and eff
fecting a boycott of stingy beaux as soon
as their numbers are sufficiently aug
mented to make the step effective

girls that local young men were penurious
in their counting. Over thirty young
men met and round robin was fash
Toned, pledging themselves to abstain
from spending one penny on the young
women of their choice until January j..
1909.
The document sets forth that this is
leap year, anyway, and that the com
plaint published challenging their liberal
ity is uncalled for. They claim that hos
pitality should come for the remainder OF
the year from the young women. The
sgners pledge themselves to stag" thea
ter parties exclusively unless the young
woman buys the tickets, TO abstain from
gifts even at Christmas, and to take no
buggy rides that involve financial obliga-
ton to liverymen. They will continue to
escort young women so long as the latter
will accept this kind of courtship.
1.-The girls bade us get busy and we
have done so" concludes the retaliatory
message. For obvious reasons the signers
of the compact agree to keep secret the
names of every other signer.

POWER OF THE EVIL EYE"
Strange Story Told at Trial for Murder
in France.

The superstitiOus belief in witchcraft
and sorcery is still far more prevalent
in rural France than would be generally

ing i'll the village of Saint George-sur-
Moulens, was so firmly convinced that a
neighbor had the .'evil eye" and had cast
Il spell over him that one day in April

could bear it no longer, and beat the pre-
stunned soreerer to death. AIerot was put
on trial for murder today.
The accused told the court that what
eXasperated him most was the nerve

Sessed. The dead man was constantly
predicting misfortunes that invariably be-
fel him as foretold. Several times the
prisoner declared the parish priest had
tried to exercise the evil spirit from his
neighbor, but without avail One day,
when Merot met his victim, the latter
said, "Hullo, not dead yet? You have
only one more week to live Flesh and

these predictions no longer and he there
