4 Al<ING ANOTHER NAME.
HsthlnE IN THE Law That Prohibits
Making q Change.

x8-x0G 1kkAyR fOAiUltb
Masking q Change.
Custom has made 1t almost uniyer-
sal for all male persons, to bear the
names Of their parents said an at
tache OF the local court the other
morning. 1T seems natural that it
should be So Nevertheless there Is
nothing in the laws of this country
prohibiting mans taking another
name, and no legal penalty is attached
to his doing So There is always, how
ever, q possibility Of it's being attended
with Inconvenience and perhaps loss TO
himself.
There Is q way by which man
may change his name with the sanction
u OF the law, and that is the only safe
way. But the law requires him to as
sign some good reason for the change
Men have assigned various reasons for
wishing to change their names. Some
times q man wishes to drop his right
name because it. Is of foreign origin
and difficult for an American tongue to
pronounce. This may injure him in
his BUSINESS, as there Is such thing
as prejudice even in this free and
enlightened commonwealth; or his
name may have in English an absurd
or even vulgar meaning and subject
him to unpleasant Jokes; or it may as
sociate him with some notorious crimi-
nal or be the counterpart Of some name
which history made Infamous; or it
may be Inisspelled and consequently
mispronounced on his entry to this
country.
Frequently Infants are left orphans
or abandoned by the father after the
death of the mother. In that case 1t is
q frequent occurrence for relatives or
netghbors to take child and adopt it,
giving 1t their own name, In that case
the party desiring to adopt must apply
bya written petition to the court of the
place In which he lives asking leave to
adopt the child and change it's name
to that of the petitioner The order
allowing the; adoption and the change
OF name must be filed with the court,
SO that the real parentage of the child
may be subsequently, established If
necessary.
When an adult applies for leave to
change his name he must give his place
of BIRTH residence, age ana whether
4 he Is Married or single and whether
there are any judgments against him
or outstanding commercial paper in the
lnamle which he seeks to abandon. If
In any Of these cases the court is salts
4 fed there are no Objectionable reasons
the order Is permitted granting a
change of name The order must be
fled with the clerk, and thirty days
thereafter the new name may be as
summed. The granting Of the notice
must within ten days thereafter be
published in q newspaper designated
lby the court.
Thus the law protects The person
who for good and sufficient reasons de-
lsires to assume \ name other than his
Town. The order Of the court being re-
corded, all the rights OF the individual
(which May subsequently, accrue to hira
under his original nnne are preserv Cd,
Ibis identity being under the law fully

called it tartufoli, long before Sir Wal

MAKES APPEAL TO TEACHERS
F. A. Cotton Urges Them to Use
Care in Work.

Indianapolis, Aug. 17.-In the in
PRODUCTION to the state manual and
uniform course of study for the ele-
mentary schools that has just been
issued Fassett A. Cotton, state SUI
perintendent of public instruction,
emphasizes the necessity for extra
care in the teaching of the first three
grades of school work so as to in
sure more rapid progress through the
remaining FIVE"
During these three years, Mr.. Cot
ton advises the use of no texts ex-
cept the reader, spelling book, and
copy book, with arithmetic added in
the third year and this lack OF for
NAL texts will necessitate all the
more care and skill on the part of
the teacher
In the introduction Mr.. Cotton
makes other recommendations espec-
tally for the rural school teacher. say
ing that for this teacher two things
should be kept in mind. The actual
condition of the district in which the
work is to be done, and second the
exact capabilities of the child. Going
on he recommends minoor adjust
ments of the conditions in individual
schools to meet individual needs

OBJECT TO LINE ON MAIN
STREET.
South Bend People Fighting En-
trance for Traction Line.

The Indianapolis, Logansport &
South Bend Traction company which
was recently granted a franchise into
the City of South Bend is having its
troubles. Although the franchise
gives the company the right to select
its route into the city with the con-
sent of the common council, people
along Main street of that city are
circulating petition asking that the
company be compelled to enter the
city in a roundabout way instead of
along Main street the direct route.
The company was granted a fran
chise through the streets OF Misha-
waka Thursday night and if the route
planned and surveyed is followed the
company must go into South Bend
over Main street which is direct into
the heart of the city. If the people
circulating the petition are successful,
however, the company will be COM
pelled to survey a new route enter
ing South Bend in a more round
about way.

The Alfalfa Plant.

c. T. Mattingly brought to this Of
flee a stalk of alfalfa or lucern, as it
is often called, which me1;ures over
twenty-four inches in height. TLis
stalk is from the third growth he
having already cut two crops of the
alfalfa this year from the same plant
ing. He will soon cut the third crop
and expects to cut a fourth before
the frosts come Mr. Mattingly
claims that "a ton of alfalfa, to per-
son feeding it to stock, is. worth as
much as ton of bran, and as bran
is worth SIS ton now then the al
falfa is worth that much per ton. 1t
is of more value than clover because
it contains more protein (alkali albu-
men) and it is on account of the
protein in clover that makes clover
of value for feeding purposes. The
alfalfa is leguminous plant, having
blush cloverlike flowers, cultivated
for fodder. Mr. Mattingly has eight
acres in alfalfa this year and if he
finds it to be what he expects it will
be as feed, he will sow considerable
next year.

Worthless Young Men.

The young man who is content to
live at the expense of his parents
will not amount to much. In fact, in
such instances there should be a law
that would compel him to work if
the parents are unable to control him.
The spectacle of young man, able
in body and mind, living at the ex-
pense of his widowed mother and the
charity of friends makes the blood
boil and it is sore temptation to
the normal, healthy man, to take him
by the nape of the neck and shake
at least some semblance of pride and
respectability into him. Every COM
munity has few such, and it is un-
fortunate that there is no adequate
law that can reach them and make
them useful citizens.-Muncie Press.

Advice to Young Men.

Bob Burdette, besides being a hui
morist of the highest class is a phil
osopher. Listen to his advice to
young men:
Remember, my son, you have TO
work Whether you handle pick or
wheelbarrow or set of books, dig
ging bitches or editing a newspaper,
ringing an auction bell or writing
funny things, you must work. Don't
be afraid of killing yourself by over
working on the sunny side of thirty.
Men die sometimes, but it is because
they quit at 6 p. m, and don't get
home until a. m 1t is the interval
that kills, my son. The work gives
you appetite for your meals; it lends
solidity for your slumber; it gives
you a perfect and grateful apprecia-
ton of holiday. There are young
men who do not work, but the coun-
try is not proud of them. 1t does not
even know their names; it only
speaks of them as "Old So and Sos
boys. Nobody likes them; the great
busy world doesn't know that they
are here. So find out what you want
to be and do, take off your coat and
make dust in the world. The buster
you are the less harm you are apt to
get into, the sweeter will be your
sleep, the brighter and happier your
holidays, and the better satisfied the
world will be with you.-Ex.

BEDFORD MURDER AGAIN.
Simpson B. Lowe, Frank Evans and
Elmer Browning are Accused.

indianapolis, Aug. 19.-Three men
were yesterday accused of the mur-
der of Sarah Schafer, the Latin
teacher, who was found foully slain
in the rear of her home at Bedford
something more than year ago. The
accused men are Simpson B. Lowe,
who was president of the Bedford
school board at the time of the mur-
der, Frank Evans and Elmer Brown
ing. The affidavits were filed by De-
tective Robert Owens, who has been
in Indianapolis for sometime trying
to interest Governor Hanly in the
case, and who returned to Bedford
today. The papers are now in the
hands of a magistrate at Bedford,
and it was understood that they
would be served today, but late last
night Prosecutor Fletcher at Bedford
said he would not have the warrants
issued, declaring that no new facts
had been discovered.
Lowe was the member of the board
who was instrumental in employing
Miss Schafer to teach in the Bedford
school, and was the representative of
the murdered girls family in the in
vestigations made by the citizens
committee to discover the authors of
the crime. Browning and Evans
were once charged with the murder,
but were acquitted at preliminary
trial

A conspiracy to defeat the con-
struction of the Panama canal, or at
least delay the work, is on foot, and a
fight will be made on the floor of con-
gress next winter with this end in
view.
This organized fight is to be made
for the purpose of convincing the
country and congress that the Pana-
ma canal route is impossible; that the
canal can not be built there, and that
the difficulties experienced by the
United States and those of the French
have proved this. This fight will be
made in the interests of the Nicara-
guam route.
Former Senator Warner Miller OF

will direct the fight. The railroad

laying and if possible preventing the

Attempts Suicide.

Young Fred L. Hill tried to COM
NIT suicide Thursday evening by
drowning. He came home and find
ing nothing to eat and scoiding
wife became tired of this life and
went to Yellow river where he made
two attempts at drowning but was
pulled out each time by his father.
1t will be remembered that he was
married about two weeks ago and in
less than a week after the marriage
his wife had trouble with a travelling
man, the latter now languishing in
Jail. In our opinion the whole affair
is not worth while for the public to
burden its mind with and should be
forgotten. At any rate young Hill is
another example of that class of men
who marry before they have the
means to decently support wife and
afterward regret the same.

Engineer Nav Send Message.

By an invention which has been
made by Elmer E. Steiner, of
Knightstown, the work of train dis
patching will be revolutionized if the
railroads adopt it generally. By it an
intercommunicating system is estab-
lished. whereby the train dispatcher
may talk directly with the engineer,
even while his train is in motion.
This will obviate the present neces-
sity of sending orders to each train
at every stop.
The apparatus is so constructed
that it can be attached to telegraph
wires of the present system of rail-
roading In this way an automatic
train reporting system is established,
whereby a train on leaving station
reports itself direct to the train dis
patcher. At the end OF each mile dur
ing the trip similar reports are made
Inventor Steiner was assisted in
perfecting his apparatus by DR.. O..
F. Fleener and William Walls, also
of Knightstown.
