summary action at Anderson had
IT'S effect i'm other cities, a NUM-
bor of them reporting a dry
Sunday. Especial Consideration
seems TO have been created at
Hammond. which has always
been wide open. 1t is practi-
cally Chicago suburb, situated
on the state line, and the rush of
the thirsty to saloons on the llli-
nois side is reported as being a
most serious loss to those in the
city proper
We are glad Gov. Hanly is
thus showing that he feels the
obligation of his oath Of Office,
and has the courage necessary to
make his undcrlings respect
theirs also. II he has the gift
of perseverance it will demon
strate what can be done in the
way of law enforcement and
what amount Of net good can be
extracted from a regulating law.

Monument is Designed by Wash
ingtOn Firm.
For the Grave Of wife Of Well known
LAWYER OF Dubois County.

There is a design of tomb
stone at a local marble and gran
lite shop that is attracting much
attention. The design is a monu-
ment in miniature which when
constructed, will be one OF the
largest single-piece monuments
ever placed at a grave IN TINS
part OF the state.
The design was created by
three men after weeks OF labor
and thought. These men are
John W. Miller and +. w. kelle
of this city, and Judge John +.
Dillon of Dubois county. Elgh-
teen months ago Mrs. Dillon
died. and since that time the
Judge has visited many places
that he might find a stone to
mark her resting place that eN-
pressed the idea of a broken
home and the reunion that comes
after death. He visited the
tombstone shops Of several larger
cities but could find no design
that pleased him. He then set
to work in an endeavor to plan
i'm his own mind such monu-
Iment as he wished. Coming to
Washington he consulted the
firm here and explained ms
ideas. The result is the tomb
stone in miniature that may De
seen at the shop now. >,

Live in the Present.

Ada NJ. Krecker, in the Pitts
burg Dispatch, says:
To-day is eternity. Eternityis
now, and now is all the eternity
we shall ever get. We talk much
Of eternal happiness, whose eter-
nity we say has no beginning
and no end. The fact is that to-
day is part Of that eternity, and
if we do not get some eternal
happiness out Of each to-day we
will never get any at all. This
is what we have to realize and
act upon.
There are many heroic souls
who sit enduring patiently the
trials and tribulations Of their
lives. finding their one consola-
ton ia the persistent looking for
ward to the joys of eternity
which they expect to gain when
their experience here is over.
This dreary fortitude in a dim
future is pathetic, not only be-
cause it is delusive, but also be-
cause so persistent a living in the
future blinds the suffer to a
great deal Of to-day's present
good which he might realize
without losing his future advant-
age. When we have realized
that this painfully strained living
i'm the future is a mistake we
sne to-day not so barren as we
thought. As its possibilities un-
fold and the hidden eternal hap
piness it holds comes to light we
begin to find out how much eter
happiness we have thrown away
because we had not taken each
day what the eternity Of every
day brought US.
The eternity of to-day holds
something for each US.

large proportions. which sup
ports the house. is broken in two
pieces, each part resting on the
base Of the monument on either
side. The purpose IS to show
that the house, when the column
gave way. was wrecked and the
door steps were misplaced, one
of them resting at an angle of
several degrees and on it in large
letters the word, Dillon. " Be
tween the two columns is scroll
upon which will be placed the
name. age date of birth and date
of death of Mr.. and Mrs. Dillon.
Above the scroll is laurel leaf.
The rear Of the monument is a
large arch. In this arch are re-
presentations of the gates ajar
and the heavenly mansion. This
is to carry out the idea the judge
had in mind of the after life. A
passage from scripture will be
inscribed on the base of the mon
ument below the gates ajar,
which will express some thought
of the life after death.
The design of the monument
will be sent to a quarry in Yer
mont next week. When COM
pleted the monument will be
shipped to Bloomington and
placed in Rose Hill cemetery
where Mr.. Dillon's parents and
his wife are buried. 1t will re-
ouire six months work to com
plete the monument.
Judge Dillon was born in Du-
bois county. where he now lives
on a farm near Portersvllle.
When a boy his parents moved
to Bloomington and the Judge
was graduated from the univer-
sity He went from Blooming
ton to South Dakota but later
came back to Indiana, settling IN
Dubois county. He practlced
law for many years and is widely
known in law circles. Washing

local elections. The Prohibition
lists are now paying their attcn-
lion to the members OF the legls-

General statutory provision and

bibiting liquor traffic entirely.

Dying In a Church

A pious farmer named Cheney
has been in the habit of going to
a Westinghouse on Green river,
KY, every Monday morning and
putting it in condition for the
next Sunday, One Monday re-
Gently, he went to the church as
usual, but did not return to his
home. His wife and family con-
cluded that he had gone to Curd-
vile, and felt little uneasiness.
Night came and passed. and he
had not appeared. His wife was
alarmed, and several messengers
started out. Not a trace Of the
missing man could be discovered,
and the farmers of the neighbor-
hood turned out TO make a thor
ough search. Late Tuesday eve
ming it occurred TO some of the
searchers to look in the church.
The door was opened, and there
on the floor near it, they dis
covered Cheney, paralized in his
right side and utterly helpless.
He had gone to church early. and
while sweeping the floor had
been suddenly attacked with a
paralytic stroke. He had man
aged during the two days to
drag himself up to the door, but
had been unable to open it, and
and was expecting to die of
starvation when his friends dis
covered him. He had been 36
hours without food.

Nore Sense Nd More NoIes.

WHY is if that the politicians
fear the rum power more than
tlc5 DO the church power We
av without fear of successful
contradiction. that the church
has five votes where the rum
power does not have one. 1t IS
because the rum power Is right
While the church is wrong! Not
by any manner of means. NO
orc prctcnds for a moment that
the church is wrong so iar as
the fundamental principles OF
0r government are concerned
The rum power has more lnilu-
once with the politicians than
the church because it has more
political sense than the church,
and for no other reason under
the sun. The rum power gets
out Of the party if the party does
not toe the mark which this
power draws for it, while the
church breaches righteousness
year in and out but votes just as
the rum power wants it to vote;
When the votes are counted
there is absolutely no difference
between the church vote and
the vote which the rum power
casts, and that is the long and
the short Of the whole business.
In the politics Of this cuntry the
devil is i'm the saddle But that
is not worst of it. The worst of
it. The worst Of it is that the
church prefers that he should re-
main there rather than to for
sake the old party.

saloon Keeper LisbIe in Damages For
Murder.

The appellate court has held
that where a saloon keeper by
illegal sales of liquor, causes his
customers to become drunken
and quarelsome, so that one
kills the other, he is liable in
damages for the death of the
murdered man, even to his
child born after the father was
killed.
A judgment holding that Wes-
ley S. Niece, a baby born two
months after his father was
shot in a drunken quarrel at
Grant station, in Vigo county,
could not recover from the Of
Tending saloon-keeper was re-
versed. The court says that
the right of a child to be sup
ported by its father is a proper
Ity right in which the child suf-
lfers equally with any older
children the father may have
had The saloon keeper also
died soon after the illegal sale
was made, but the court held
that his death did not affect the
liability of his estate and his
bondsmen to the infant.

Oh LONG our souls have waited
Through weary years gone by
Until this sign Of love divine
Was symboed ON the sky.

Reach up to seize the crown
Before the mass the reign or class
Forever must 90 down
The self life must acknowledge
The universal plan,
The larger view within the new,

Too long the race has followed
The blind who lead the blind
The higher light will guide Alright
The Christ within mankind
Too long the meek have suffered
Meath Mammon's cruel ban,
Now comes to birth their reign on earth

That is the magic watchword,
The slogan of the free.

A Cheap Window

Wishing to have more light in

dow, tackled light muslin to
edges of the boards around the
hole. then took a paint brush
and gave it coat of linseed oil
and it answered the purpose
splendidly. The muslin should
be stretched tight and the edges
doubled to prevent the tacks
from pulling through. The mus
lin is cheaper and requires

B0rrrwing Habit.

Some people have formed the
habit of borrowing until they
think they can not get along
without it. Never borrow unless
compelled to, for there is moth
ing made by it. There is a loss
of time in going after it, provi-
ded it is returned. Some people
borrow so much they forget to
return that which they have bor-
and that is hard on the lender.
1t is at times a great accomoda-
tion, but the habit grows.
