BLIND BOY
May Bring Mandsmus Suit Against DR.
Rorick.

Bellefontaine, o., Dec. 2G.-Unless
Dr. Rorick, Superintendent of the
State Asylum for ImbeciIes at Colum-
bus, withdraws his refusal to receive
Wilbur Reynolds, of this county, into
the institution, a mandamus suit will
be filed against him by Representative
Dow Akin, who is acting for the of
ficers of the infirmary and chldren's S
home.
Wilbur Reynolds is Z years old. He
is blind, deaf and dumb, and is said
to be mentally deficient.
The child was received at the Logan
County Children's home and a letter
was sent to the State Blind Asylum,
but the superintendent complained
that they would not care for him, and
the child was sent back here and was
later taken to the Deaf and Dumb Asy,
lum at Columbus. The superintendent
there said he could do nothing for the
child, as he thinks he has no mental
capacity.
The officers Of Logan county then
made application for admission of {
child to the State Asylum for Imbec
lies, but DR.. Rorick says he has no
room in the institution and will no
accept the child.
This refusal was laid before Cover
nor Harris and Attorney General Ellis
and if they sustain the position of Or
Rorick, the mandamus suit will be
\ brought.

WHILE WAITING
FOR THE COFFEE
Look Over These ana Forget Your
Other Troubles.

AFTER CHRISTMAS.
When the Christmas joys are over,
And you've finished taking stock
OF your assets yet remaining,
Then is when you get shock.
not cent in any pocket,
Every pocket full of bills
Then is when the joys of Christmas
Seem transmogrified to ills.
Then is when you get that feeling
Sometimes spoken of as tired;
Then is when you feel like wishing
Christmas pleasures could be fred
Feel as though the joys of giving
Were not all that's sometimes
thought,
And that there is something LACKING;
Something that can not be bought
Which is why, when comes the New
Year,
Also comes the high resolve
To in future do so different
Many moral problem solve.
Which is why the water wagon
Plays SO prominent part,
After holidays are over.
As the New Year takes start.

EDITORS WIFE
Shot With Small Rifle She Pressnrsd
to Son as Christmas Present.


Chicago, Dec. 26-Mrs. S. J. Herben.
wife of Editor Herben of the Epworth
Herald, who was taken to the Evans
ton hospital suffering from bullet
wound proves to have been shot py a
small rife given as a holiday present
to one of her sons. Mrs. Herben had
been walking on the lake front with
her children when she was asked to
test the rife. While she was hand
ling it the hammer fell and the bullet
lodged in her thigh. No serious conse-
quences are expected unless blood
poisoning sets in. So much secrecy
was observed concerning the case yes
,terday that strange rumors were cir
culated concerning the manner in
which the shot was fired.

PEN MAY CLOSE
its Doors Entirely to the Reporters
for What Are Called Humane


Columbus, O., Dec. 26.-With the is
suance of the new reportorial pass
ports, by Warden Gould OF the peni-
tentiary, evidence is growing that, in
the course OF no distant time. the
doors o. that institution Will be per-
manently sealed against the represen-
tatiyes of the press. Comparisons of
today, with former times, reveal mark
ed evoiutions of this idea The cards
that will be issued for the year 1907
by Warden Gould, increase the limita-
tions over former years and reporters
are now allowed only the privileges
of the front office, the deputy wardens
Office and the hospital, within the
walls. In former times, the reporter
had almost as much liberty as the
warden and the members of the board.
CAN'T VISIT ANNEX.
But it is different today. Admis-
sion to the annex is denied. News
paper men are not granted the privil-
ege Of the female department without
a special permit and the same is true
of tie annex.
REASON FOR IT.
The argument that obtains today is,
that while the prisoner is immured
behind the walls and away from the
sight of his fellow men it is sufficient
that he is doing penance for his
wrongful acts and making due and
proper reparation to the state for any
crime he may have committed. Con-
sequently, it is not right or proper
that his name should be constantly
appearing in the public prints and his
daily life spread out before the world.

Among the fashionable furs for sew

no doubt that the wane of its popu-

You can not make sweet butter In a

as churn in which to agitate, work up
