SOCIETY GIRL A SQUAW.
Heiress Weds Arapahoe Indian
and Adopts Tribes Customs.

Miss Grace Wetherbee of New
York, daughter of one of the pro-
prietors of the Manhattan hotel
in New York, a beautiful and
gifted girl, who had all the ad-
vantages of education and soci-
ETY. that money brings, is now
living on the Shoshone Indian
reservation, the wife of a full
blooded Indian
She dresses as a squaw, carries
a papoose on her back, is care
less in her manners and indiffer-
ent to the conventions which gov
ern white society. But she is re-
garded as a saint by the Indians
and has richly earned the title.
Six years ago Miss Wetherbee
came to Fort Washakie, eighteen
miles east of Lander, Wyoming
to visit the family of ]. K. Moore,
post traders there. She met and
Immediately fell in love with
Sherman Coolidge, full-blood-
ed Arapahoe Indian, tall. straight
as an arrow, with piercing black
eyes. long black hair, supple body
and a mein and voice unusually
earnest for even an Arapahoe
Indian.
He was then, as he is now, en-
gagged in mission work on the
Shoshone reservation. He called
several times to see Miss Weth-
erbee and openly pressed his suit.
She was not slow in consenting
and after all her friends realized
that she was determined to be-
come the red mans bride and
would elope with him if need be
they gave their consent and the
ceremony was performed.
Since that day Mrs. Coolidge
has 'ost many of the graces OF
the white woman of culture and
education, but she has look OF
supreme happiness in her eyes
and seems entirely contented
with her earnest-eyed, grave
| faced husband and the brown
black-eyed baby she carries on
her back.
On the reservation she is an
angel of mercy, visiting the
sick at all times of the day and
night. helping the Unfortunate
and giving her husband the great
est help in his work of educating
and uplifting the more ignorant
members Of his tribe.

"Corn Bread for the Best"

The Washington Post recently
contained quite an exhaustive ar
ticle under the above heading
that the great mass of American
people fail to appreciate the mar
velous nutritive value of corn
bread, which is the sure enough
staff of life," and which is far and
away superior to the bread that
is made of wheat or any other
kind of grain" Continuing the
writer makes these sensible OBJ
servations."
Any old hunter will tell you
that corn bread fed to his fox
hounds will enable them to pur-
sue the game longer and farther
than any other food. it is the uni
versal rule OF owners of packs tc
give their dogs all the corn bread
they can eat before starting or
the chase instead OF meat OF
wheat bread. The tremendous
long journeys that our North
American Indians have beer
known to make afoot could nevel
have been accomplished on any
other kind of rations.
"The man who eats corn bread
regularly may not know it, bu1
he is following a dietary system
that is ideal. Corn bread give:
strength to the system, promote:
good digestion and is an invalu
able ally to nature. 1t is bettel
far than the rice that the littl,
Japs depend on for sustenance
and yet in the land that is tn,
home of corn the people ignore
its virtues"

INDIANA CHURCH MEM.
BERS.
Interesting Figures Compiled by
the State Statistican.

If membership in any church is
of advantage to mortal man in
his wanderings after his time on
this earth is done, there will be
725.40S people in Indiana who
will start into the future with
that much advantage, + figures
compiled by Joseph H. Stubbs
chief of the state bureau Of sta
tistics, show that in 1901 there
were that many church members
in the state.
Perhaps some of the children
who are not members will get
some grace too. as the figures
show that there are 436,00 Sun
day school members in CLOG
Sunday schools.
In all there are 6.06S churches
in the state. owning property to
the extent of 21,122,52S. The
salaries paid to the ministers
amount to $1,646,477, or about So
for every church member. In ad-
dition to this cost of maintenance
of the churches was 1885 ,694, and
the benevolent contributions
amounted to S43S.246, making a
total expense of S3.020,417, OF
about S4.16 per member.
The Methodists have the larg-
est membership, 174,S62; the
Catholics the second largest with

Presidents Annual Message.

Newspaper correspondents at
w aShlngton are now putting in
most of their time telling what
President Roosevelt will say and
will not say in his annual mes
sage to Congress.
AS rule these forecasts are
of very little value but we give
a short article from the cores
pondent of the St. Lollis Globe
Democrat for what it is worth as
follows:
The principal feature of Presi-
dent Roosevelt's message to
Congress will be his utterances
on railroad rebates and similar
legislation. His remarks will be
emphatic, pungent and unques-
tionable in their demand for legis-
lation that will leave no doubt as
to the powers of some tribunal to
pass upon the question of rates.
The President will lead the ele-
ment that believes in effective
legislation. He will point out
that he wants just as fair treat
ment of the railroads as of the
people and business interests of
the country, and that no other
kind of law will suit the vast ma
ioritv of people. The President
has been receiving unstinted ap-
Iproval of his course, and senators
and representatives have been
calling upon him and writing
him to assure him they will give
him the strongest backing he ever
had. Senator Cullom and Repre-
sentative Rodenberg of Illinois
had long talk with the Presi-
dent on the question. They both
assured him that the people had
in no wise abated their demands
for legislation that will cure ex-
isting evils, and that the coun-
TRY was almost solidly with him.
The President has completed
the first draft of his message and
expects to make few changes in
lit. He has the first proof from
the printer. Unless the President
makes change in his present
intention there will be no refer
ence to the tariff.

A Slight Mix-up.

Many people have noted the
fact that calendars differ on the
date of Thanksgiving, some
marking November % and others
November 80. The fact that
there are five Thursdays in No
vember is the cause of the mix
up. 1t is usual for the president
to proclaim the last Thursday in
November as Thanksgiving, but
many people have an idea that
the day always comes on the
Thursday after the third Tues
day. which would bring Thanks
giving on the twenty-third. On
account of this disagreement
among the calendar makers, it
might be as we'll to postpone or
dering turkey until the procla-
nation of President Roosevelt is
Issued.

Jacy Lyons and Joseph Glines
received indeternlinate sentences
to the Michigan City prison last
Friday for stealing grain from
the formers father. afte.- both
had pleaded guilty. Thomas Ly-
ons, a wealthy farmer of Laporte
county, notified officers that some
one has visited his grainary and
hauled away load of wheat.
The officers responded and took
up the case and to the surprise
of the officers. as well as TO Ly-
ons himself, the two men caught
were his son and son-in-law.
When he saw who it was the
father did not weaken, but re-
marked that one thief was no
better than another and confirm
ed his remarks by filing afidav-
its against both men.
A pitiful scene was witnesses
when Gline's wife and three lit
tie children visited him in the
county jail to say farewell The
wife carried in her aims a baby
of scarcely three weeiss. Glines
and his family were living on the
farm given to them by the man
from whom the wheat was stolen.

Some Seasonable Advice.

1t may be piece of super1ous
advice to urge people at this sea-
son of the year to lay in a supply
of Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy. 1t is almost sure to be need
ed before winter is over, and
much more prompt and satisfac-
tory results are obtained when
taken as soon as a cold is con-
tracted and before it has become
settled in the system, which can
only be done by keeping the rem
edy at hand. This remedy is Sc
widely known and SO altogether
good that no one should hesitate
about buying it in preference to
any other. 1t is for sale by al
druggists.

purely personal reasons and that
no charge could be sustained
against him and if he was indict-
ed that stain would always be
against him even if he should be
acquitted in court. Every politi-
cal force that had kept Dough-
erty in power for a quarter of a
century was used on that grand
jury. The members of the grand
jury in a signed report complain
ed to the judge that the prosecu-
ting attorney was not doing his
duty in probing the affairs of the
school board. The judge lectur-
ed the prosecutor and the real
work of investigation began.
The result of that investiga-
ton is KNOWN to the world.
There is nothing in the whole
catalogue of crimes against prop
erty except arson that Dougher-
ty is not charged with. Embez-
element, false pretenses, larceny,
forgery, perjury, bribery have all
been alledged. Why, it is charg-
ed that he was carrying on the
pay rolls the names of seventy
dummy teachers and putting the
pay for them in his pocket; that
he was "scalping' the pay of the
teachers who were actually en-
ployed: that he was receiving
rake-off on every dollars worth
of supplies bought; that not
contract for a building bit his
bit came to him. There are near
ly 200 indictments against him
and the grand Jury is still busy
getting more.

A Good Yield.

On Mr.. 2.uebelt's farm can be
seen one OF the best fields of corn
in this section this summer. The
variety is the Leming, yellow
dent, deep grained corn. While
gathering seed corn Mr.. Reubelt
selected three ears that weighed
FIVE pounds. The yield will be
about 80 bushels per acre. This
variety of corn. according to the
experiment stations analysis,
contained a higher per cent of oil
and protein than any other corn,
white or yellow, raised; and in
feeding four bushels will go as
far as-fve bushels of other corn.

Prevent and Cure Hog Cholera

Purdue University has sent
out an article on hog cholera
from which we condense the fol-
lowing items written by R. A.
Craig, Purdue veterinarian.
The main precautions against
carrying the germs into the yards
are as follows:
Hogs from other herds. or
stock shows should not be allow
ed to mix with the herd until they
have been proven free from dis
ease.
All possible ways In which the
germs can be carried into the
yard by people, dogs, birds, etc.,
should be guarded against. es-
pecially when the disease is pres
ent in the neighborhood.
Dipping or washing the hogs
with two per cent. water solu-
ton of a tar disinfectant should
be practiced and the animals
placed in quarantine for at least
three weeks in yards that do not
communicate in any way with
the regular yards.
When it is necessary for per-
sons to enter pens where the dis
ease is known to exist, they
should clean and disinfect their
shoes on leaving.
Persons taking care of sicl
hogs should use all possible pre-.
cautions against the spread ot
the disease in their neighborhood
Some of the necessary, meas
ures in the treatment of sicl
herd are as follows:
Disinfect the feeding floors
troughs, hog houses and their i'm
mediate surroundings daily with
a water solution of a tar disin
fectant 1.-TWO to four per cent.
If this cannot be done, remov,
the hogs and build temporary
| quarters.
Feed a. light, sloppy diet o
shorts, bran etc.
Do not leave water and slop il
the troughs for the hogs to wal
| low in.
Copper sulfate can BE dissolved
in the drinking water and slol
in the proportion of four ounce
to the barrel.
The dead hogs should be burn
ed, or buried and their bodie
covered with lime.
| If these precautions agains
the spread and perpetuation o
''hog cholera" were observed,
is believed that this disease woul
not exist as an epidemic fror
year to year.

Evolution of the West.

When the states of Oklahoma
and Arizona enter in 1906 or 1907
there will be twentv-one states
west of the Mississippi to twenty
six east of it. AS the trans Mis-
sissippi region has 60 per cent OF
the area of the contiguous part
of the United States, however, il
must some day have more than
half the population, and be the
dominant section in the govern
ment. One of the trans Missis-
sippi states (Texas) is fifth on
the roll of states, and another
(Missouri) is sixth. Texas is
first among the states in extent
of miles of main railway track
having passed illinois by the be-
ginning of 1905. Illinois has lee
in railway mileage since 1870 un-
til this year. The trans Missis-
sippi region has the fourth city
(St. Louis,) some day to become
the third city, and possibly the
second or the first. The creation
of the states of Oklahoma anC
Arizona will be an important
step in the evolution of the west
st. Louis Globe-Democrat.

A Judicious Inquiry.

A we'll known travelling man
who visits the drug trade says he
has often heard druggists inquire
of customers who asked for a
cough medicine. whether it was
wanted for a child or an adult,
and if for a child they almost in
variably recommend Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. The reas-
on for this is that they know
there is no danger from it and
that it always cures. There is
not the least danger in giving it,
and for coughs, colds and Group
it is unsurpassed. For sale by
all druggists.
