M.cbins FOR locating Springs.

Adolf Schmid. Swiss engineer OF
standing, has Just patented in several
countries device which takes the place
Of the divining rod Of superstitious
tradition. 1t consists of a magnetic
meridian. This instrument is carried
obont the field in which 1t is desired to
locate water and whenever 1t passes
over a hidden spring the magnetic
needle will perform rapid and lively
oscillations. Many tests Of the appa-
ratus have been made and in no case has

The extraordinary popularity OF fine
white goods this summer makes the
choice of Starch matter of great i'm
portance. Defiance Starch. being free
from all injurious chemicals, is the
only one which is safe to use on fine
fabrics. Its great strength as stiff
ener makes half the usual quantity OF
Starch necessary. with the result Of

johnson the Man.

LaRue Herald: Hon. Ben johnson,
Bardstown, who is the only candidate
for the Democratic Congressional nomi-
nation, was here yesterday mixing with
the people in attendance at court. Mr..
johnson is by no means a stranger in
our county, as the neighborly feeling
between LaRue and Nelson has grown
and with it has been cultivated Mr..
Johnson's neighborly interest in our
people. Mr.. Johnson will not have OPP
position in his candidacy and will be
given the nomination without contest,
which is assuredly high compliment,
but one which he wears easily and one
which is well deserved. In the halls of
Congress the people realize that he will
care for the interests of the Fourth Con-
gressional district with the same fideli.
ty that he displays in attending to his
own business affairs or that he has
shown in the State Legislature.

Woman Released by Sister Says Son
Sent Her TO Asylum.

Worcester, Mass, May Upon the
representation that she was committed
TO an insane asylum although perfectly
sane because she refused to subject her
self to her sons housekeeper, Mrs. Rosie
f. Pierce forty years old, of Holden.
has secured her release from an institu-
ton in Brattleboro, VT, through the
efforts of her sister, Mrs. Mary Capron,
of Holden.
Mrs. Pierce says her son, George
Pierce, with whom she went to live in
Northampton, abused her so that she
was unable to leave her room fer Fix
weeks, and that the letters she wrote to
her sister in Holden were intercepted.
On March nine she says she was sent to
Brattleboro by her son. With difficulty
she got word to her sister, who secured
Mrs. Pierce's release upon an agree.
ment that Mrs. Capron is to provide a
home for Mrs. Pierce az long as she
lives. The son signed this agreement.

Fraternity that Means Something,

Fifteen acres of ground broken and

which Weber local of the American So
ciety of Equity assists brother in dis
tress. George Corley, a member of the
local, has been i'll for some time and
was very much behind in putting in his
corn crop. A large portion of the
ground was not broken and very little
corn was planted.
Wednesday twenty-four members of
the local. with eight two-horse plows
and eight one-horse plows went to work
in his field and by shutdown Mr.. Corley's
planting was as far advanced as that of
any Of his neighbors. Such spirit Of
fraternity among farmers, say the resi-.
dents of that neighborhood, has
not been seen since the pioneer
days Of log-rollings and corn-shuckings
