Indianapolis, May 10.-The Demo
cratic insurgents" who were routed
at yesterdays meeting OF the State
Democratic Committee, admit that
Taggart and his friends are firmly in
the saddle and cannot be shaken there
from by any ordinary methods.
The executive committee in every
instance is composed of district lead
ers who have long held seats in the
Taggart band wagon.
The attempt to reorganize the party
has, up to date proved a fat failure
and Tom Taggart is happy. Chair
man O'Brien's executive Committee is
as follows:
First District, John l.. Nolan, Evans

TELLS BY
THEIR SLEEP

Il can tell by my little
ones sleep when a cold is
coming on" said a mother
when speaking of the advance
symptoms of colds in children.
" They toss about, are rest
less, their breathing is heavy
and there are symptoms Of
night sweats. The next morn
ing | start with SCOTS Emul-
sion. The chances are that
in a day or two they are all
over it. Their rest is again
peaceful and the breathing
normal"
Here's a suggestion for
all mothers. SCOTS Emul-
sion always has been almost
magical in its action when
used as the ounce of proven
ton. Nothing seems to over
come child weakness quite SO
effectively and quickly as
SCOTS Emulsion.

the western evening sky are the
planets Venus and Jupiter. They
are nearing conjunction, and

Wulf.
"well spoken, both of you. So it

Then Rosamund stepped forward and
threw herself upon her knees before
him. exclaiming:
"Sire, my uncle, such is not your JUS
tice, that two should be slain for the

He stretched out his hand and rails

"Nay, plead not with me, for how
ever much you love him the guilty man
must suffer as he deserves, but of this
matter Allah alone knows the truth"
Now, behind Saladln stood that old
and famous imaum who had been with
him and Hassan when he commanded
the brethren to depart from Damascus.
Leaning forward, he whispered In his
masters ear, who considered a mo-
ment, then answered him:
ut Is good. Do so.'
So the imaum left the court and re-
turned presently carrying two small
boxes of sandalwood tied with silk and
sealed, SO like zach other that none
could tell them apart, which boxes no
gaze to Saladin.
