HOSPITAL COMMISSION.
Committee Arrives Home Well
Well Satisfied with Its En-
deavor.

Mayor Logan, c. T. Mattingly,
Senator Parks and l.. Hess re-
turned from Indianapolis Friday
night, the latter two arriving on
the midnight train, where they
had met the epileptic hospital
commission, with Governor Han
ly, and presented the advantages
of Plymouth as location for the
hospital.
Mayor Logan was seen soon at
ter his return and gave an en-
couraging view of the claims of
Plymouth for the site, as present
ed before the commission by the
home delegation. Out of some
thirty bids for the village the
commission had sifted the COM
petitive number down to twelve,
and these, the mayor thinks, will
be still further reduced to four or
three, and perhaps two. This will
be done after the committee goes
into executive session upon the
propositions of the twelve COM
peting places. The commission
will then visit the points that
were not eliminated and will
make their choice. This will
have to be done promptly, as
there are yet but six weeks in
which the commission must pur-
chase the land, get the abstracts
and make their report to the gov
ernor.
Senator John w. Parks pre-
sented the attractions of Ply
mouth, ably aided by H. A. Log
an, the mayor of Plymouth. SEN
ator Parks called attention to the
banking and transportation facil-
tiles of the town of Plymouth,
emphasized the quality of the soil
OF 1,130 acres, saying that all but
100 acres is tillable land. The
average price per acre is $61.C8.
Both Senator Parks and Mayor
Logan urged strongly the right of
the northern part of the state to
have some State institution, say
ing that his part has not had its
full share, and that as a conse-
quence, the people there some
times felt that they did not really
belong" Mayor Logan also
mentioned the fact that the coun-
ty treasurer of Marshall county,
William O'Keefe, was the one
county treasurer in the State who
turned the interest on the county
money back into the treasury.
The site offered adjoins the town
, of Plymouth, and is substantially
the same site that was offered
when the location of the Northern
Hospital for the Insane was being
considered.
Mayor Logan speaks highly of
the courteous treatment they re-
ceived by the governor and the
commission. Their sessions were
nelu III Tie governor rooms IN
the state-house and each county
was allowed one hour in the pre-
sentation Of its claims.
Mr.. Logan said that Senator
Parks evidently has things his
own way at Indianapolis. The
senator escaped hold-up this
time by having detective along
| when he went out for a stroll.
The last time he was down to the
capital it was reported that while
having his shoes shined his pock-
cts were picked of lead half dol
lar that he had taken in change,
an expired railroad pass, couple
of bath tickets and a package of
Sunday school literature.

Doings in High Life.

Miss Fern Clough entertained
the Senior class at a character
party Thursday evening. The
costumes were both good and or
iginal. Many odd and interest
ing games were played for which
beautiful prizes were awarded
The house decorations and the
refreshments were the colors OF
the class. Every one enjoyed
himself until a late hour when
Happy Hooligan thought he
needed sleep so the crowd went
in quest of their homes.

Rabbit-Killinq Time Now,

1t seems that a good many per-
sons think that from the first of
January on they are prohibited
by law from killing rabbits. Rab-
bits may be killed at any period
in the year except from October
1st to November 10th, when the
season is closed against every
kind of game except water fowl

Basketball Game.

Plymouth High School basket
ball team is next to try for hon.
ors with the Valparaiso High
School team. The game will be
much faster than any before, as
it will not be played under the A.
A. u. rules, which caused the
loss of, and much delay in, the
Hammond game. The Plymouth
five has been very successful this
season, as also has the V. II. s.
FIVE, which has lost but one game
and that on account of an acci-
dent and change of rules. This
promises to be fast game and
those who have not witnessed a
game so far should come. 1t is
a game more exciting and far less
brutal than football, and by far
the most excellent sport in Amer
ica. The game takes place in the
V. H. S. gym Friday night. The
following is the lineup:

Will Protect Country Roads.

The township trustees of Kos
ciusko county have mutually
agreed to enforce the. statutory
law of the state concerning the
public highways. The law pro-
vides that if the tires of a wagon
are less than three inches in
width the load hauled must not
exceed $500 pounds in weight
The law also prohibits hauling
heavy loads when the roads are
muddy or thawing. The penalty
for violation in either case is $5(
for each load hauled. Marshal
county trustees should take sim
liar action.

Much Ado About Nothing.

The reports from Bourbon
about the terrible crimes COM
mitted in the old college building
and the mary hair-breadth es-
capes of citizens from the gang
of outlaws supposed to hold
nightly carnival there seem to be
without foundation. The town
officers and several deputies in
vestigated the matter the other
night and found that the stories
were all coined by some imagin.
ative individuals.

In this connection it may be
properly remarked that the per
feet system and efficient conduct
of the affairs of this department
of the courts business has given
the circuit courts office in Mar
shall county high standing rep
utation among the sister counties
of the state. Back in the years,
when the old frame courthouse
stood, when those most grave
and reverent Seniors" Mcdonald
klinger, Cushman and others or
namented the box" in the court
room and the space behind the
desks in the clerks Office, and
gave an awe-inspiring dignity
to the position, the clerks Office
obtained distinction for its exec
utive management; and that sys-
tenn OF classification of court bust
ness and other records, codified
by Mr.. Mcdonald during his in
cumbency, has been modelled at
ter by the clerks of other coun-
ties, and is still preserved in CO.
efficient manner in the Marshal
county clerks Office. The Mar
shall county clerks office is rec
ognized as one of the best model
ed in the state, and its high effic
iency is maintained under the di
rection OF Deputy Frank Brooke
whose executive knowledge anC
ability in its management IS sec
ond to no other person in th'
state.

:. WARS WORST EVIL.
Il II the Waste of the Best Blood Of

IL 10 the Waste of the Best Blood of
the Nations.
Every one who has come to a reason
able maturity must have had opportu-
nifty to observe for himself how great
Is the loss to society when first rate
man dies prematurely. II he leaves q
family he leaves 1t bereft of his care
and his training and exposed to perils
from which he might have shielded it
If he leaves no family there 10 the in
caleulable loss of the children he might
have had. Some fatherless families
turn out we'll In spite Of their handi-
cap, but the unbegotten families Of
dead fathers are a total loss. What
our country, north and south, suffered
from the decimation of It's very best
stock in the civil war cannot be COM
puted.
On this tendency Of war to waste the
Indispensable best blood OF nations
President David Starr Jordan bases q
very interesting argument In favor Of
peace. He has hopes that the present
century will see the permanent estab-
lishment Of peace for mankind. The
perils of peace to nations he makes
nothing of as compared with the perils
Of war. His argument Is all biological.
So called "lecadent'' nations are
none other, he declares. than nations
that the best stock has been killed out
Of, leaving the perpetuation Of the race
to inferior individuals. He maintains
that neither adversely nor luxury de-
stroys a race and that generation true
to the type will follow generation IN
less the best individuals are killed off,
Greece, he says, died because the
men who made her glory had all passed
away and left none of their kin and
therefore none Of their kind. Rome fell
because of the extinction Of her best.

DR.. Jordan thinks. puts a premium on
the virile virtues. The best men get
ahead In time Of peace; the idle. weak
and dissipated 60 to the wall. "Other

Is the one most likely to develop the

SLEEP IN THE FRESH AIR.

OF BensAt to Well People ~ Well a.
to -Consumptives.
Almost ninety nine people out Of ev-
cry hundred In town and country think
there is something unhealthful, uncan-
ny and surely hurtful about night air.
This fear is the indirect cause Of q
large proportion of sickness and death.
Too little fresh air and too much food
and drink are the causes of most of the
common ills that flesh is heir to.
In cold weather most people in the
temperate zone sleep with their win
dows shut or open barely a crack. The
house or room is heated by stove. fur
mace or other nonventilating system.
compelling one to breathe bad air over
and over again. Urge these people to
turn off the heat and open the WIN
dows and sleep in plenty Of fresh air,
and they shudder and say, 'I'll catch
my death of cold" If that were true,
how is it that f9eble, emaciated and
run down ccnsunaptive, with one foot
in the grave. can practically sleep out
doors in zero weather and with benefi-
cial effects?
"uiIe tue ITc6A alE tredtLuGuL OF con-
sumption has been recognized as meri-
torious for several years. 1t is only
within two or three years that the pub
lis has realized that it is by no means
always necessary for those threatened
with consumption to 60 to the Adiron-
dacks or Colorado or some other rela-
lively high and dry climate, but that
they can get fresh air by living out
doors in their own backyard or even by
sleeping with their head only in the
fresh air. But 1t does not seem to have
entered the mind of our otherwise in
telligent people that II fresh air is such
an upbuilder of the sick and feeble
how much more essential and benef-
cial must 1t be In maintaining a degree
of health and strength that is the best
possible insurance against any form of
disease. cannot speak too strongly on
this subject. OF course people who are
not accustomed to fresh air should not
make the change too suddenly, but
should gradually accustom themselves
to more and more air until they at last
sleep in absolutely pure and fresh air.

DEAD MEMS SHOES.


Dead mems shoes Is a common ex-
preston, but means much IN many
parts of the old world, where the boots
of the dead are accorded much i'm
portai.,e.
In Scotland, in the northern parts of
England, in Scandinavia. as well as In
Hungary. Croatia and Roumania, the
utmost care is taken among the lower
classes that each corpse is provided
with a pair of good shoes before being
laid into the ground. If the dead per,
son happens TO be Il tramp and to have
been found dead barefooted there will
always be some charitable soul to fur
nish pair of good boots for interment
along with the corpse
An inspector Of police in Scotland has
been known to purchase Of his own ac-
cord a new~pair of boots and to place
them in the grave, reopened for the
purpose. of murdered stranger who
had been inadvertently inferred bare
footed the day before,
This practice, which likewise prevails
among the Tsieanes as well as In many
parts of Asia. is attributable to the be
lief that unless tho dead are well shod
when buried their CHESTS come back to
haunt the locslity where they breathed
their last In search of a pair Of boots.
The shoes are peculiarly supposed to
be needed to pass in comfort and
safety the broad plains which the de-
parted soul must traverse before II
can reach paradise, Among some ma.
lions these plains are declared to be
covered with furzeS, thorns and mo.
rass. while other races say that they
consist Of burning sands. These plains
Of suffering are popularity credited with
forming a sort Of! antechamber to hell
1t Is for this reason that the boots OF
the dead are called hell shoes" In Nor.
way, Sweden, Finland and Denmark.
