Fine Health In Open Air.

The healthiest persons In the world
are gypsies. and they live In the open
air. but there is an erroneous idea
that gypsies are people who defy the
elements to destroy their health. On
the contrary, they are very careful.
indeed, of their health, even though
living out Of doors. They never go
to bed with the draft blowing over
them, but have free circulation around
them, yet protected from rain and
wind. While sometimes seemingly
scantily attired. they always are
warmly clothed beneath, wearing
warm underclothing. The consump-
tives who go TO places for their
health are now living exactly as the
gypsies, and because Of the disease
being considered contagious, they
must live in tents. II is here that the
efhcacy Of pure air is being fully DEM
onstrated, for It often effects cure
II the patient is not too weak when
the treatment begins.

laughed at part of the play where
excuse for mirth was supposed to be

but we trust his case can be carried

joy to have definite and decisive

VEHICLE TAX IS
A DEAD ISSUE
Says a Member of the Marion
City Council.
Councilmen Afraid That Protest
Would Follow Passage OF
the Ordinance.

There will be no vehicle tax In
Marion so long as the present city
council is in existence. That was
decided Monday evening at an in
formal session of the city s0lons
held following the adjourned meet
ing.
For several weeks there has been
no small amount of talk regarding
the advisabilitv Of levyine a ve-
hicle tax here. and it looked for
a time as though legislation Of
that kind would be passed.
But now everything is off. The
tired mother or the henpecked hus-
band who may be seen during the
cool evenings, mournfully showing
a creaking baby carriage along the
streets. will continue to have their
burden lightened by the knowledge
that it does not cost a dollar or so
year for the privilege of keeping
their conveyance in use.
"At the conference held Monday
evening"" SAYS member Of the
council, "we decided that if we
levied a vehicle tax it might cause
as much protest as did the poll tax
before we knocked It out"
A vehicle tax is being enforced
with seeming success in Columbus,
but the council does not think that
local conditions are ripe for
any such an arrangement. For
several years there has been tall
of more or less serious nature re-
garding tax of this kind, but it
never reached a focus.
The nearest that the city ever
came to having tax Of this kind
occurred about year ago when
an ordinance to tax automobiles
was introduced. Mr.. j. v. Wilson,
chairman of the committee in charge
of that class of legislation, pocket
ed the ordinance and it has never
been seen since.
"It is possible that after the
present council disorganizes, the
vehicle tax question will be re-
vived. but under this administration
the thing is dead ISSUE" says
one member of the council.

THINK CLARA
HAS ELOPED
With One of Her Numerous
Suitors.
ASSISTANCE OF POLICE
If Asked in the Endeaver to
Locate the Girl.
Hearing of the Marion Baseball
Players Set for This Evening
Postponed Until Next Week.

Believing that Clara Bean, a 10
year-old girl, has eloped with one
of her numerous suitors, Mrs. Ben
iamin COPELAND. an. aunt OF the
girl, has asked the police to find
her.
The girl has been living with
her aunt since the death OF her pa
rents. Lately she has formed a
habit of remaining away from home
all night without apprising her rel
atives of her whereabouts. On
Saturday she was punished by Mrs.
Copeland for staving away the night
before, and it is thought she left
on that account.
On Sunday the girl was driving
about the city with a young man
named William Massey. She was
later with Ed Sprague and with
Fred Blair. Massey told the police
that he left the giri with some man
whose name he did not know. The
police do not believe that the girl
has left with any one, but that she
has decided to leave home and that
she departed alone.
The police are trying to locate
her, and if returned here she will
be sent TO the home at Delaware.
Upon the request OF counsel for
the defendants, the hearing of the
baseball PLAYERS set for tonight has
been POSTPONED until next week by
the mavor. Attorney Scofield, who
represents the plavers. was sudden-
ly called out of the city yesterday
and requested that the hearing be
postponed until his return next
week. After consulting with CITY
Solicitor Donithen. the mavor grant
ed the continuance.
Three drunks, Charles Shannon,
William Carpenter and Jas. White,
were arrested last night by Officer
Babcock. The men were all stran-
gers and had 10 money, so they
were given the privilege of cleaning
out the city prison, after which the
police put the 1893" sign on them
and they all left town.
