Inquest Reveals Mystery of Reciusc
at Hammond, Ind.
The remarkable history of Henry
Scholkes HeIwig. the mysterious hermit
of Hammond, was revealed in part at the
inquest over his body, which was found
frozen stark in his little hut Helwig was
60 years old, wealthy, and reported to be
OF aristocratic German lineage. Bruises
on different parts of his head and body
led the police to suspect he had been muir
dered for his hoard, but Coroner Hoskins
gave a verdict of death by exposure. Life
had been extinct three days when the
BODY was found The bruises on his head
the doctors say. were caused by his falling
out OF his bed. Ii developed at the in
quest that Helwig. when he was an OH

charged with breach of discipline in
taking the command of a column from
superior officer during an engagement ir

Later they rallied under his command.
but he was court-martialed and sentenced
to be shot While imprisoned in a fortress
he was pardoned by King Frederick
Broken hearted, he fed to South America
and became soldier of fortune in several
revolutions. He left Brazil fifteen years
ago and came to New Orleans, later set

talk to any one save crony called Holtz.
He had plenty of money and correspond

French authorities have figured ont
that every year more than 100000
worth Of fake Sevres porcelains arc
manufactured. principally in Germany,
at Leipzig, Berlin and Ruhm, and that
there is no way of stopping this falslf-
cation of a special kind of manufaS
ture Of which the French government
has long had the monopoly
The trade mark of the Sevres porce-
lains has changed with the successive
relgns and empires. that of the present
bearing the republican insignia. For
this reason the German manufacturers
produce the fake Sevres porcelains and
place on each piece mark of the old
en- time, which Is no longer trade
mark and thus cannot be prosecuted by
the French government.
1t Is said that most Of the German
product is sold In America, and that
while you can buy a plate Of German
made Sevres in Paris for 60 cents, You
have to pay as much as $34 in London
and New York for the same stuff

There Is every indication that the
reign OF the elbow sleeve Is drawing
to q close, the sleeves on the new gowns
are short, but come well below the ell
bow, and the close-fitting cuff Of tucked
chiffon and lace lengthens them still
more. The fashion has been so exag-
gerated and caricatured that 1t has en-
tirely lost any smart effect, excepting
In some elaborate gown with which ell
bow sleeves are appropriate. For mid
summer and in the thin fabrics the
fashion will revive to certain extent,
but fortunately its popularity has prov
cd It's own undoing. and ere long it VIII
be numbered as a past fashion"
Each year and each season of the
year discloses greater freedom OF choice
la gowning as compared with former
years and this makes for more artistic
draping OF the human form and more
charming framework in the way Of
colffures and chapeaus for the feminine
face. Time was. and not so very long
since, when every one had to wear Inn
mense sleeves or else be hopelesssly old
fashioned in their frocks, and how hide
Gus these outstanding puffs were. They
suited only the tall and thin, but the
short, stout woman added ten or more
inches to her breadth and deducted an
equal number from her height with
great cheerfulness rather than appear
old-fashioned.

The most stringent antitrust bill that
ever was proposed in the Indiana Legis
lature was passed by the Senate Wednes-
day by vote of Al to . The law is
aimed principally at the Standard Oil

ton to discriminate in prices asked, re-
ceiyed, offered or paid for any product or
commodities, and that any person, firm or

business in Indiana, and Iged in pro-
duction, manufacture or distribution of
any commodity in general Use, that shall
for the purpose of destroying competition

communities or cities Of the State. by
selling such commodity at lower rate in
one than in another, shall be deemed
guilty of m.sdemeanor and fined in any
sum not exceeding 81 200 and imprisoned
in the county Jail for term not exceed
ing one year.

Finding FauIt with Your Children.
1t is ut times necessary to censure
and punish; but very much more may
be done by encouraging children when
they do well. Be, therefore, more care
full to express your appreciation of good
conduct than your disapprobation OF
bad. Nothing can more discourage a
child than a spirit of incessnt fault
finding on the part OF its parents, and
hardly anything can exert more injuri-
Gus influence upon the disposition both
of the parent and the child. There are
two great motives influencing human
actions-hope and fear. Both of these
are at times necessary. But who would
not prefer to have her child influenced
TO good conduct by desire of pleasing
rather than by the fear of offending!
If G mother never expresses her gratifi-
cation when her children do we'll, and
Is always. censuring them when she
sees anything amiss, they are discour-
aged and unhappy; their dispositions
become hardened and soured by this
ceaseless fretting; and at last, finding
that whether they do we'll or i'll, they
are equally found fault with, they re
linquish all efforts to please, and be-
come needless Of reproaches.

George Ross and His Private NJ

Our favOrite story Is the one whlcH
Mr.. Clifford calls The Romance Of .
Scots Family" George Ross, the son
OF a poor tenant farmer in the DIRK
neys, went out in whaler to the
China seas, entered the East India
company's navy. and ultimately took
to shipbulldlng. When fortune came
to him he went back to Scotland and
carried of his whole family to the
Cows islands, which he annexed as hl5
own. The tale OF the colony which he
founded there is scarcely inferior in
His son was a dreamer, but his grand
son was mighty man of his hands,
who turned the settlement of the Co
cos Malays into model common
wealth.
"They have developed much Of the
Scotsman's love of order. regularity,
neatness and cleanliness-all virtues
foreign to the race from which they
spring. Their wcmanfolk. who tyran-
nize shamefully over the men since
George Ross has set his face like a
flint against the time-honored practice
of wife-beating. indulge every Satur-
day in a wholesale 'redding up of
| their houses, the like of which is not
to be seen in all Asia. Their
sole lapse from virtues way appears
to be that they are apt to construct
and conceal from the sight of their
own rulers certain Illicit stills-things
not unknown In the records of Scot
land. but startlingly inappropriate to
a Mohammetan pe0ple-wherein to
brew cocoanut teddy of an exceedipg
vileness."
1t Is said to think that the old -,

cable station is to be erected On sss-
atoll. and strange men and ideas ~
soon break in upon the island -alm.

She eats three regular meals a day.
She doesn't waste her vitality in talk
Ing nonsense.
She is careful to keep as much in the

She walks every time possible, that

She sleeps eight hours at the least,
and as often as possible two of them
before midnight.
She never let's the past worry her.
1t is gone and she endeavors to make
the future as pleasant as possible.
She manages to take a rest every day,

her nerves and keeps her cheerful.
She is neither self-centered nor fam

Senator Moss bill to provide for a uni
form series of text books in the high
schools of the State was called up on
third reading in the Senate and PASSED
Seventy-three members of the House
voted to pass the blind tiger bill and the
bill went through the House a-sailing.
There was no fight, the opposition to it
having exhausted itself last Friday when
the bill was up ON second reading, and
was advanced to engrossment. The I'LL
had already passed the Senate, where it
was originally introduced by Senator
Ganiard, by large majority. When II
first came to the House it was attacked
with a number of amendments but none
Of them was successful except a slight
change in one of the sections that was
made for the purpose merely of clearing
up an ambiguous sentence.

Senate Passes High License Bill.
After debate that lasted more than
two hours and in the presence of the larg-
est crowd of spectators that has been in
attendance since the session of the Gen.
eral Assembly opened, the Senate Monday
afternoon passed the Mattingly $1,000
saloon license bill by vote of % to 1S-
Galleries and the space on the floor re-
served for spectators were filled long be-
fore the debate began and as it waxed
warm, the number of visitors increased
There were saloonkeepers, brewers and
temperance workers in the crowd who OPP
posed the high license bill and there were
also brewers, saloonkeepers and temper
ance people present who were said to
favor it. The interest in every speech
was intense. but the great crowd made
absolutely no manifestation until the vote
had been taken and the result announced.
Then there was an outburst o. handicap
ping from every side Of the floor and
galleries.

The empire modes of to-day are much
prettier in their modified form than
were the original.
For a young girls dance frock moth
ing is prettier than round length skirt
with baby bodice and sash.
Some of the feathers on extreme hats
not only fall over the brim, but extend
to the shoulder or half way down the
back, they are so long.
Velvet coats come in the most exquis-
ite pastel shades. One blue empire coat
was lined with white satin and had
cuffs of renaissance lace, finished with
RIFLES OF irish lace
The short bolero with japanese floral
reyers is the latest fancy. The little
garment Is worn over chemisette OF
mousseline de sole Of the same hue and
can be taken Off at will.
IL Is marvellous how linen collars
have taken hold of feminine affections.
There Is no abatement In the demand
for them, although the designs are
steadily becoming more ornate.
Brown broadcloth coats, lined with
squirrel and finished with collar and
cuffs Of caracul, are good looking and
serviceable. The darker grays are tans,
either fur or satln-lined, are very good
among the moderate priced coats.
Wearing black velvet ribbon around
tie neck with ball gowns Is immensely
fashionable at the present moment The
velvet Is as wide as can be worn CON-
fortably and Is fastened at the back
with a jeweled bar. In front is a iia-
mond pin or buckle, diamond slides at
the side or fine specimens of the Car
tier jewelry may be worn over the vel
vet
Lace is more fashionable than ever,
and the soft lace ties, bows and jabots
are Immensely becoming and extremely
popular. A band Of valenciennes inser-
ton. with narrow edge to match,
makes a charming tie, the ends finished
with wide ruffle of the same lace. Va
lenciennes and the fine laces are the
most used for this fashion. Rare old
pieces of lace are making their appear

Child Labor Ri, Ki,,ea.

The American Federation of Labor's
child labor bill. the most important pro-
vision of which was that seeking to pre-
vent the employment of children at night,
was killed in the House. After friends
of the measure had failed to table an
amendment excepting factories from the
night work provision. the author, Mr..
Kleckner of Cass county, moved to strike
out the enacting clause of his own bill.
This motion carried by small majority,
but the real sentiment of members was
shown on the first vote-that on the mo-
ton to table Mr.. Fitch's amendment ex-
cepting factories. The defeat of this mo
ton was by a vote of 81 to 81.
