PRESIDENT DICTATES SLOWLY.

For all of the celebrity of his move
ments, personal and official, President
Roosevelt dictates very slowly and de-
liberately. The public of course, has
an entirely different idea about the
president in this matter, but it is
fact, nevertheless. that when he is
talking to a stenographer he is the
very personification of studious delib-
Grafton. He chooses his words with
great care. often using two or three
synonyms before deciding upon the one
he wants. One personal experience is
recalled when President Roosevelt act
ually consumed nine minutes in dictat-
ing a public sentiment of exactly 500
words, or about twice the length of
this paragraph. This was when the
railroad rate fight was in its most criti-
cal stage. and the president desired to
send to the country through the news
papers an Interpretation" of his atti-
tude This means that it was one of
those statements in which the prest-
dent is not quoted directly, but the
reader is left to infer that it correctly
sets forth the presidential attitude at
the particular moment.-Washingt

LAPIDAT, CONVICTED SLAYER,
NOW BELIEVED TO BE INSANE.
Slayer of Alexander Urdria, is Claimed
by the Attorneys to be Suffering
From Paresis-

The attorneys for John Lapidat, the
convicted slayer of Alexander Urdria,
have the papers ready to file in their
appeal to the supreme court for a new
trial. They are basing their appeal up
on the question of the. prisoners san
ity and are giving special prominence
to the portion of evidence in support
of the insanity plea. Lapidat seems
utterly unconcerned at to his fate, and
does not seem to realize the serious
predicament he is in. He is proving a
model prisoner at the Jail and gives no
trouble whatever.
1t is a question whether he would
even attempt to escape if given an op-
portunity. Some of his actions since
conviction give indication of an alb
normal mental condition and a new
trial may result in a reversal of his
sentence. Unless, however, the su-
preme court finds sufficient cause to
grant a new trail, or the governor in
tervenes, he Will be executed before
sunrise on March 29, at the Michigan

Board of Public Works to
Open Highway to Gibson
and Points East.
RAILROADS TO PAVE IT
State, Sibley, and Summer street VIII
Pour Great Volume of Traf-
fc Into It.

The board OF public works this after
noon decided to extend State street in
a southeasterly direction. parallel to
the Michigan Central tracks and mid
way between this railroad and the
Nickel Plate. to the Gibson road.
1t is understood that the Michigan
Central railroad which owns most OF
the land in this vicinity has agreed
not only to the opening or this road but
has also agreed to pave It TO a width
OF so feet The road Is to extend in
a southeasterly direction so that the
extensions of both Sibley street and
Summer street join the main highway
at a point near Columbia avenue with
these streets pouring the volume Of
their traffic into this main street, it
will become one OF the most import
ant as well as the longest street In
the city.
The new road running midway be-
tween the two railroads in this vicin-
ity will be fianked on both sides with
side streets and eventually two other
parallel roads will be built on either
side. The building of this street is
practically a guarantee that the main
arteries of traffic east and west will
be Plummer avenue, State street, Sib-
ley street and Summer street these
being the thoroughfares that lead to
the main street which Will probably
be known as State street and will carry
the traffic in a southeasterly direction
to Gibson, Grasselli. East Chicago, In
fdfana fIarbor, Hessvifie and all TIE
territory east OF the city.
Best OF all 1t is TO be paved and
paved at once while the principal ex-
pense is being borne by the railroads.

THE RAG CARPET.

This is one of the old things which
has been restored to popular favor
in the revolution Of fashions wheel.
Formerly made a necessity with the
housewife who could not afford the
imported carpet of early days in
this country, they are now in demand
among even wealthy people for use
in bedrooms and as rugs for such
apartments and for the porch. They
can be made quite handsome, by dye
ing the rags with any of the modern
dyes, and then arranging them in
stripes of harmonizing colors. These
can be made to blend with the hues
of the wallpaper or coverings of
furniture, or with the general effect
of the belongings of the room. Hit
and miss" rugs are pretty if the
colors are we'll chosen and may be
made with a boarder of some one of
the shades used. 1t is we'll to re-
member that thirty-six yards of sew
ed rags will weave one inch of carpet.
A novelty is the porch cushions
made OF rag carpet in bright colors.
They are large, and are stuffed with
cotton batting. excelsior, or finely cut
corn husks To put the sides together
a deep hem is made all around each
side and then they are stitched to-
gether on the outside.
The making Of rag carpets has be-
come quite an industry in many parts
of the country and good prices can
always be had for we'll designed and
carefully colored work. Our farmers
wives and daughter could not better
employ their time in winter than in
this occupation.

City of East Chicago Sued
For $3.50 AS a Result
of Accident.
LARGE STONE BREAKS
Jules Hummell Of East Chicago Ruins
a $3.50 Diamond Because of
Defective Sidewalk.

East Chicago has been made a
defendant in one of the most remark
able damage suits to which a northern
Indiana municipality was ever a party.
Chief Clerk Jules n. Hummel, in the
general office of the Republic in East
Chicago, has sued that city for $3.50
because a defective sidewalk caused
him to fall and break valuable dia-
mond
According to the complaint which
was filed in City Judge McMahon's
court a few days ago Jules Hummel
was walking along Michigan avenue
between Grapevine and Fir streets in
Indiana Harbor, when he came to a
place in front of S. Lavene's store
where the board sidewalk ended and
a new cement walk began. Both
walks were raised above the surface
of the ground and there was a bridge
OF planks between the two, the planks
being nailed together, with cIeats at
each end.
There were no warning lights, and
on the night of Sept. 3 Mr.. Hummel
tried to cross on these planks when
he stumbled and fell head-long.
Believing it unwise to allow anyone
hand late In the evening, Mr.. Hum
mel turned the stone around so that
it was on the inside of his hand.
When he fell. Of course, the stone
struck on the walk and to its owners
surprise, 1t was smashed into frag-
ments.
OF course, this somewhat ruff1ed Mr..
Hummel and he at once determined
to sue the city for the amount of his
loss. Before bringing suit effort was
made to settle out of court, but this
failed, so legal proceedings were in
stituted.
The following is an excerpt from
the complaint filed before Judge Nc
Mahon:
The plaintiff further says that at
the time of said accident the night
was dark, that there were no lights
at said place, nor were there any
guards or other indexes or warning
whereby the plaintifr might be warned
of the unsafe condition of said walk;
that at the time the plaintiff fell on
said cement walk he had on his hand
| valuable diamond ring which was
then and there worth $3.50 and that
at the time said plaintiff was thrown
on the sidewalk said diamond struck
against said cement walk and was
broken in many pieces, and was then
and there ruined and then and there
became and was rendered worthless
by reason or which the plaintiff is
damaged in the sum of $3.50"
Most persons. knowing that dia-
mond is one of the hardest sub
stances in existence. smile incredu-
| lously when the statement is made
that a diamond could be smashed in
the manner described and it is likely
| that expert testimony Will have to be
| introduced to prove each of two propo-
, sitions. First, that is is possible to
break a diamond in the manner de-
scribed and secondly, that the dia-
mond was broken in the manner de-
scribed The bona fde quality of the
diamond may also be called into ques-
| tion.
Should Mr.. Hummel recover damages
from the city it IS likely that there
Will be a movement started in Eas'
Chicago to improve the crossings OF
get softer cement sidewalks.
