Bigger Thing Coming Off.

a little talk the stranger put up his pile.

in and put up $50, while Wilson couldn
overlook his own good thing ana went IN
for a hundred.
Would the stranger bet the money. as
the pOOlrOOm would not take bets from
Wilson? No, the stranger didn't under
stand the game. but Stelfel did, so ne
net according to instructions from Wilson.
But Steifel made a mistake and backed
Hidreth to win instead of playing him
for second place.
Wilson was mad and raved because
Steifel had thrown his money away, and
incidentally the stranger 5. OF course,
Steifel had bet the money all right and
the stranger was shown piece OF card
board which looked like Egyptian hero
gIyphics to him, but both Stefel and Will
son said il meant the money was placed
on Hildreth to win. Then the three parted
and Wilson told him to come back next
day and he would get even.

But the stranger got to thinking the
matter over and finally went to the pO-
lice Here they told him there was moth

lost. A lawyer said the same, and finally

How They Dress In Paris.

Walk along the streets of Paris and
you will see 100 simple citizens tricked
out in such guise as in sober London
would make them ridiculous. Is
man a poet? Then his hair is instant
ly long; his clothes are shabby and fan
tastic; his hat, with its fat brim. re-
calls the fashion of 1880. Is man
painter? Then his clothes proclaim
that he inhabits Montmartre and that
he wanders up and down under the
skinny trees of the Boulevard Roche
chOuart. Is a man a journalist? Then
he is what is called epatant and dimes
for reduced price at the Cafe Anglais
Is man a deputy? Then the imag-
inatiOn refTainS from q formula: he has
brougkam. and he is decora ted. but
beyond this the eye of dogmatism can
not penetrate. Yet, whoever he be. he
dresses the part; he separates himself
from the bOurgeoisie by trick of cos
tune and gesture. and though no man
ever possessed so brilliant a genius as
the young Frenchman assumes his
love OF acting instantly marks him
out and the world Is so wisely accus-
toned to his antics that a man who

ATTEMPTED TO FIRE
BIG SCHOOL BUILDING
Detectives Now Search for
Fire Bugs.

Chicago, May 11.-Detectves in the
employ of the Chicago Board of Educa-
ton are searching for an incendiary
who attempted to burn the Clarke pub
lie school. containing 1,G0o children,
at Ashland avenue and West Thir-
teenth street.
The fire which started at the foot Of
one of the stairways on Monday, was
discovered in time to prevent the
spread Of the flames. The lower steps
of the stairway had been saturated
with kerosene and a basket of shay
ings and paper set afire. The flames
had not yet caught the oil soaked
wood when the alarm was given. In
the building there are thirty school
rooms. Three rooms are filled with
deaf and dumb pupils and two score
blind students are scattered through
the various grades.
The attempt TO fire the building was
discovered by one of the mutes.

No Opposition Offered to In
dorsement of Johnson in
Minnesota.
POOR WILLIAM BOY.
FOR HIM TOUCHED
UPON BUT AFFECTION WILL
GET HIM NO DELEGATES TO MA
TIONAL CONVENTION.

st. Paul, May 1J.-The democrats of
Minnesota yesterday formally indOrsed
Governor John A. Johnson as Presi-
Dental candidate and at the same time
by vote of 80 to 1GG refused to de-
clare in favor Of William J. Bryan as
second choice The followers of
Mr.. Bryan did not carry out the threat
which they have made so often during
the last ten days-that they would bolt
and hold rump convention If their
contests were defeated before the COM
mittee on credentials, or if they were
not able to secure a partial indOrse-
ment of their leader. They made a
sturdy fight for their man, and when
they had been overwhelmingly defeat
ed remained quietly in their seats and
made no motion to leave. The John
son men were generous in their victo-
ry and declared in their platform that
while they entertained "an affection
for and confidence in the integrity and
ability of William J. Bryan" they be-
lieved that Johnson was a man better
calculated to bring success to the dem
ocratic party, and was first entitled to
the support of Minnesota.

This is only one of several improve
ments that could be made about Earl
ham and by which the public would
be benefited.
1t is gratifying to see the improve
ment the association has made in the
Potter's field and when it can be sOWn
In grass and nice sod grown, it will be
a beautiful spot instead of an eyesore
as it was for generations past.
A suggestion which might be car
ried out and which would cost the
county perhaps $25 a year, would be
to adopt uniform style of markers
for graves in the POtters Field and
mark each grave there and also each
new one as it is made. This would
add a great deal to the looks of the
field and would also furnish perma-
nent marks for the graves. Hereto
fore wooden markers have been used
which must decay in a year or so and
be replaced perhaps correctly and
perhaps not. K. B. }.

REPORTS WERE

As Many People of Richmond Are Tes-

The Root Juice instructors made
many lasting friends while in Rich
mond Their wonderful remedy has
done worlds of good at this point, and
reports of cures are being circulated
from every direction. A. G. Lukens S
drug store is more busy than ever
wrapping up Root Juice, and listening
to the many flattering reports Of the
great good it is doing.
Mrs. Sarah Collins said: II used to
bloat so at times l could hardly get
nv breath, sour gases would form in
nv stomach and dull heavy headaches
were at times so bad l felt l would go
crazy: my tongue coated and | always
had a bad taste in my mouth. My
hands and feet were cold at times and
at other times they would burn like
fire. but, thank my good stars, after
hearing so much about Root Juice, |
went to the drug store and bought a
bottle of it and after using the first
bottle | went back and bought two
more bottles. l have used it all and
don't think | will need any more as |

Root Juice seems to be good for any
trouble of the stomach, liver, kidneys,
bowels or blood. 1t is sold for 81 a

TO have a decent. respectable waiting

would be good years work in itself
1t would seem as though a cemetery

would be apparent and the manage

Therefore Overtures more or less

if he does so the second place on the

Good Harvesting Weather.

After ten days period of rain and
drizzle, the weather came off fair Mon
day, and the prospects are that there
will be week or two of good harvest
weather. The binders and threshers
are being crowded to the limit through
this section, with the result that rice
is beginning TO appear at the mills
and warehouses, although in but small
quantities at the present time. Judg-
Ing by what has been threshed so far
the yield in this vicinity will be a fair
average, although not the bumper
crop that some people are inclined to
think it would. What the planters
most need at the present time is few
weeks OF good weather, and present
prospects are favorable for it.

Fatal Stabbing

a stabbing affair occurred here
about eleven O'Clock Saturday night,
us result of which one negro is re-
ported to be dead and another one a
fugitive from justice. The trouble
originated over crap game in which
one negro lost about four dollars.
Becoming enraged, he sliced a large
butcher knife and stabbed his com.
panion in the chest. The wounded man
turned and ran, being closely follow
ed by his assailant, who stabbed him
again in the back. The wounded
negro was sent to New Orleans on
the midnight train, but is reported
to have died before reaching the CITY.
The party doing the stabbing made
his escape, and so far as is known here
he has not been captured.
