ONLY A HALF HARVEST
Ice Dealers Depending on Natural
Supply are Greatly Alarmed
Over the Situation.

Those Richmond ice dealers who
depend on their summers supply of
ice from natural sources are at the
present time fearing that no more
cold weather will come to cover the
ice ponds and streams with a good
thickness of ice. The winter has
been extremely short and natural ice
dealers say that only about half a
crop has been harvested. although
what has been secured has been of
good thickness. In speaking of the
situation one of the natural re deal
ers said that during the Utter days
of the recent cold spell the ice was
rotten and was not fit for harvesting.
The warm weather next came and the
ice harvest was doomed for at least a
time, and dealers fear for remainder
of the winter.

CLAIM HE BLEW UP CAR
POLICE SUSPECT MCDONALD
Trying to Connect Sanford Dyns-
miter With Recent Explosion or
Big Four at that Place.

Terre Haute, Ind, Feb. 27.-There
is no longer doubt of a persistent
source of inspiration for the statement
that some evidence exists connectin :
Horny F. Mcdonald, the Sandford
"blind tiger" man, now in Jail, accus-
ed of dynamiting buildings last week,
with the blowing up of the powder car
on, the Big Four at Sanford, January
10. Prosecuting Attorney Cooper,
says he has no such information. Cor
oner Leavitt finds none. Still it is
said there is evidence and the Big
Four detectives are busy.
The motive for blowing up the pas
senger train is said to have been the
presence on it of one or two of Sand
ford men with whom Mcdonald was
angry, but there is no explanation of
how he happened to know that a car
of powder had just arrived on the sid
ing to help him blow up the passing
passenger train. The railroad deuec-
tiveS have been closeted with the Ter
re Haute police officials in their exam
ination of witnesses, but Chief Dwy.
er, of the city force. says there is no
evidence on which the sensational sto-
ries are based
Mcdonald was one OF the men ac-
cused of wrecking train at Foatauet
during the miners strike In 1891 and
this is cited as having a tendency to
prove he blew up the passenger train
last month. If there is any stronger
lie. but some one is supplying the re-
porters with innuendo to lift the re-
sponsibility for the powder car wreck
off the shoulders of the railroad COM
pany.

ATTORNEYS : ARGUE CASE
Study and ShiveIey Set Forth Their
Contentious in the PeddIing
Ordinance Suit.

Arguments were heard yesterday
in the circuit court in the case
of the City of Richmond against Hen
ry Zuttermeister for the violation of
the city peddling ordinance. The
case was appealed to the circuit court
from the city court by City Attorney
T. J. Study. The. ruling in the city
court was adverse to the city.
Mr.. Study cited the court to many
decision in cases of an alleged SIM
liar nature to the one in hearing,
maintaining that the city had a right
to enact and enforce ordinances re-
lating to the government of various
kinds of business.
Attorney Ray X. Shiveley appeared
for the defendant and argued that
the peddling ordinance was unconsti-
tutional, referring the court to the
fourteenth amendment. He also stat
ed that the ordinance was against
the spirit of the Declaration of indie
pendence. Mr.. Shiveley admitted
that a municipality had the authority
to regulate various classes of bust
ness. but said that the case in hearing
involved discrimination between
men engaged in the same class OF
business Mr. Shiveley cited a ruling
of the Indiana supreme court to sub
stantiate his arguments.
Judge Fox, who heard the argu-
ments, has taken the case under adj
visement and it is mot expected that
he will reder a decision for several
DAYS. If he does not sustain the rul-
ing of the city court it is probable
the defendant will carry his case to
a higher court

important Facts Concerning
The Great Discovery.

Yesterday in an interview the in
structor at Luken's drug store said:
The inventor of Root Juice spent years
of his life in travel and study in
search of something that would. cure
disc aSe. The inventor is scientist of
marked ability and for years he be-
lieved that health was mans greatest
blessing and that most so called di-
seases were but symptoms of de-
rangement of the blood-making and
blood filtering organs, and as the
manufacture of blood is started in the
stomach, he started by experimenting
with that organ. Then he went at the
liver and kidney and by experimenting
for years with dogs, cats, monkeys and
guinea pigs, with every known drug
and many that were unknown, he at
last discovered a combination that is
proving to be the most wonderful cur
alive agent of the age. 1t heals and
tones the mucous Innings of the
stomach, bowels and bladder. 1t
heals and strengthens the liver and
Kidneys 1t creates a good appetite
and causes the food to be digested be-
cause it removes irritated and ulcer

gans The scientist has proved his
theory to be correct as thousands are
testifying. He said where there is
belching, bloating, heart burn, weak
ness, nervousness, sick headache,
constipation, catarrh, rheumatism and
numerous kidney symptoms the only
right road to recovery was to ignore
all of these troubles and get the stom-
ach liver, kidneys and bowels to
work in healthy unison and all of
these troubles with many more would
soon cease to exist. as you could not
have effect without cause. Many
people of Richmond that have used
this great discovery that is called
Root Juice are now loud in. their
praise, and as a result the people are
flocking to Luken's drug store. This is
positively the last week in Richmond
for the instructors. They cannot be
prevailed on to stay 4onger. They are
now staying a week longer than they
consented to stay when invited to this
point 1t would be sad miss to those
who need the remedy that do not get
it. Root Juice is sold for 81 a bottle;
