INDIANS IN SORRY PLIGHT
REPORT OF GOV. KIBBEY
Former Richmond Man Says That
Uncle Sans Wards in Arizona are
Ekeing Out Miserable Existence on
Cactus and Herbs.
National News Service.)

Washington, Nov 15-Uncle Sam
wards in Arizona are in sorry
plight. According to Governor JOS
eph H. Kibbey, of that territory, the
members of the White Mountain
branch of the tribe are slowly starv-
ing, and whole families are ekeing
out a miserable existence with cactus
and herbs as their only food. AL,
though the Governors report is III.
the hands of the Secretary of the
Interior, there is little that can be-
done, beyond looking out for the In
dams temporary needs. The whole
trouble seems to rest in the anti
pathy the Indian has for work They
would much rather loll around their
tepees while their squaws toll and
their children tumble about the
camp. This is one great cause for the
general suffering and another is the
distance the tribe is situated front
the railroad, which offers practically
the only field for employment. The
bucks of the tribe are about as disin-
clined to travel as they are TO work.
Despite their suffering. the Indians
are said to be behaving themselves
in exemplary manner Although they
comprise IA per cent of the entire
population of the territory Governor
kibbey declares they furnish only
three per cent of the convicts in the
penitentiary. These figures, the gov
ernor thinks. prove the Indian to be
peaceable and law-abiding. The In
terror Department is making plans
to assist the unfortunate tribesmen,
but such assistance naturally can on
ly be makeshift, to tide them over
their present troubles

Law of 1903 Making Officials
Terms Begin in January
Unconstitutional.
ATTY. GENERALS OPINION
DECLARES THAT COUNTY OFF,
GERS MUST ASSUME THEIR OF
FIcES AT EXPIRATION OF PRED
ECESSORS' TERMS.

Indianapolis, Ind, Nov. Is. (Spl.)-
In an opinion rendered today Attor-
ney General Charles w. Miller de-
clares that the act of 1908. which at
tempted to make uniform the begin
ming of the terms of county officers, is
unconstitutional, and that all county
officers. including judges and prose
cutting attorneys, whether their office
is constitutional or legislative, will en-
ter on their new terms at the expira-
ton of the terms of their predecessors
whenever that may be. In effect, this
opinion, if followed, entirely abrogates
the act of 1908. and leaves the situa-
ion so far as the beginning of terms
is concerned, exactly the same as it
was before the enactment of that law.
If this opinion is followed Judge
Fremont Afford, of the Criminal
Court, will retire from his office No
vember II, next Saturday, and all 9th
VI judges of the State, together with
other county officers, will enter on
their terms at the expiration of the
terms of their predecessors, and not
wait until January 1, 1907, as the law
of 1908 provided
Effect Of Decision.
This decision affects judges of Cir
cult, Superior and Criminal Courts.
all prosecuting attorneys, all county
auditors, treasurers, clerks, sheriffs,
recorders, assessors, coroners and
surveyors. Instead of taking office
January /, 1907, as the law provides,
they will begin their duties the day
the term of their predecessors would
have expired regularly, that is, had the
law of 1903 not been passed. These
expirations come at different times,
mostly in November.
The law of 1908 was passed because
there was great irregularity in the end
ing of terms of county officers and the
beginning of new terms. The pur-
pose of this law was to bring order
out of chaos by trying to start all
officers terms on January /. In some
cases this would have heightened
some terms.

MUCKR|DGE SENT TO PEN
WAS PROVED HORSE THIEF
Former Resident of This County Suf-
ferS at Hands of Lebanon, Ohio.
Court-Officers McManus and Liv-
eIsberger Testified.

James Muckridge, formerly of Cam
bridge City, who was tried at Leba-
non, o., Wednesday, for horse stealing
and against whom Sergeant McManus
and Patrol Driver LiveIsberger tes-
titled, has been sent to the peniten-
tiary for term of four years The
jury was out less than a half hour.
Muckridge, dlYing his residence in
Wayne county, was never arrested on
charge Of theft. He was known as a
horse-trader and his transactions were
carried on in Eastern Indiana and
Western Ohio. According to the
Ohio officers, Muckridge was known
to them as a horsethief, though they
had never had case against him I'M
til the one which proved his undo.ng.
Even in this case, however, Muckridge
maintained his innocence throughout
the trial, taking the stand and MAX
ing absolute denial to the allegations
of the State. Muckridge also had
witnesses who swore that his reputa-
ton for honesty was good. One wo-
man to whom Muckridge had sold sew
eral horses, testified that she had
found that his representations regard
ing horses which she had purchased
as being correct The jury, however
decided that there was plenty of evil
dence to show that Muckridge was
guilty. and the penalty was inflicted.
The Ohio police declare that there is
a gang of horsethieves working in the
territory adjacent to Lebanon and
they declare also that Muckridge was
one of the gang. Muckridge made
emphatic denial TO this.

Mr.. STANLEY'S ATTORNEY
PROVISION OF THE LAST TESLA
MENT GIVEN OVER WHICH LIT.
IGATION HAS ARISEN-THREE
WILLS DRAWN.

The suit of Miss La Verna Beard
against Earlham College, in an effort
to compel the trustees of that instit,l-
ton TO admit her as a student under
the provisions of the will of Zacharlan
| Stanley, viii prove one of the most in

! days. 1t developed yesterday that
| Judge Fox will not pres de when the

SO on the ground that he was the at
| torney for the late Zachariah Stanley.
Not only this. but Judge Fox drew up
the will which contains the Garlham
| College provision now brought into
the courts.

ness and private, than any other man

lege"
Will Use Special Judge.
To use the expression of one of the
circuit court attaches, the suit of Miss
Beard will have to be heard before an
imported judge and the attorneys in
the case will probably agree upon the
special judge in few days.
Not only the friends of Earlham
College are interested in the case,
but because of the peculiar ground up
on which it is based, the provisions
of the will upon which two interpre-
tations are placed, has interest TO
people in general. After providing
for the sale of the farming lands in
Delaware county for the benefit of
Earlham college, the provision OF the
will in question in part follows:
Il direct that the income that shall
result from the said lands or fund
shall be applied by the proper author
tiles of the college as follows: First, to
the education of my blood relations,
preference being given to those bear
ing the name of Stanley. Second.
If in any year none of my blood reia-
tions shall apply for the benefit of the
income of the said fund, it shall accu-
mulate in the hands~of the college au-
thorities to be afterwards applied, IL
necessary, to those who shall make
application afterwards. If greater
number of students entitled to enter
said college under the provisions OF
this will shall apply for the purpose
of receiving the benefit of the income
of said fund, than the said income
will provide for, then the college au-
thorities shall apply the said income
for the benefit of those who are adj
mitted pro rata. Satisfactory proof
shall be made by such applicant to the
proper authorities of the eligibility OF
such person as to his blood and other
qualifications, it being my desire that
the benefits of the said fund shall he
given to the proper person as herein
designated and to those who by their
good conduct and department. shall
render themselves worthy of it.
Attorney John L. Rupe will repre-
sent Earlham in the litigation.

TEETH THAT WERE USELESS
Puzzle to the Man Who Had Sud-
denly Sustained the Loss
of Them

Harry Leon Wilson, author OF The
Speniers," was domiciled for summer
in Connecticut with a colony of artists
and writer's, all OF whom had to go into
the city every day, relates the Saturday
Evening Post
Wilson was doing nothing but loaf
ing. He loafed artistically, and from
time TO time met and had fun with
some of the natives of the place. One
day he found Two men in the road who
seemed congenial. and he struck up an
acquaintance with them. He proposed
a drive and they got surrey and two
horses.
Can you drive?" asked Wilson
Sure" one OF his sudden friends re-
Piled, Il am fine driver"
They got aboard and started down

mile the team was frightened by
passing automobile and ran away. The
driver valiantly steered the horses
into a telegraph pole and Wilson and
his two friends were thrown helter-
skelter into the road.
Wilson slowly gathered himself to-
gethcc. One OF his friends was sitting
in the ditch rubbing his bruises and
the other stood in the middle of the
road gazing in fearful misery at two
front teeth which he held in the palm
Of his hand.

Repairing, Shrinking Trimming for

The difficulty in mending large holes
in fine old linen Is found in keeping fiat
and not drawing it up. This is much
more esaily accomplished if a piece
of fine tulle is basted over the hole and
the darn then made in the meshes Of
it. The best thread for darnlng is that
puIlel or drawn from another piece OF
linen. This will be found preferable to
fax. as 1t is much more even.
When the skirtband or pocket hole
keeps wearing out and much strain is
put on the band. a piece OF leather cut
from an old glove should be stitched
