Hats, which we adver-

D the public at half, third and
quarter of the original prices, the
surprise and admiration of the

fully appreciated WHY we had
bought SO many. They all came
fresh from the workrooms of a Chi

Even at so absurd1y low prices,
500 Hats will probably last several

Of some desperate singlelaanded. to
extort money by means of murderous
threats from a man in Valparaiso

~, John Ziesel, observes the Elkhart
Review.
George Miller of Valparaiso, SON
in-law of ex-Policeman and present
Constable Jerry Trump OF Goshen
recently received letter telling him
to place $500 Ill am envelope and
mail it to J. M .Ander on at Elk
hart before New Years day

Trump family would be wiped off the
face of the earth. This letter is in
tlIe possession of Sheriff Ziesel. Upon
its receipt by the sheriff the local
police and Postmaster Eeisenbeis
were informed Officer Fonda was
placed IN rhe postoffice lobby with in
structions to arrest any person who
might call for mail addressed to ].
NJ Anderson.
In the meantime Mrs. Miller had
telephoned to Mr. Trump at Gosh
en- telling him that her husband had
placed the money, 800 bill and two
$50 bills, nm an envelope, and mailed
it Sunday to Anderson, and asking
him to try and intercept the letter
Mr.. Trump thereupon telephoned to
his son, Lloyd S. Trump of Elkhart
who conducts a dye house ON Lexing-

call for the Anderson letter. 1t was
unfortunate for him that he did so.
for he was Immediately arrested by

ABOUT MARSHALL COUNTY.
Many Interesting Topics Which Will
be Discussed at Coming Session
of Farmers Institute.

The State Statistician credits Mar

cows. The increase from these cows
can be greatly increased by proper
feeding.
Mr.. /. B. Calvin of Kewanna, vic

noon and give the farmers of Mar
shall County the benefit OF ms long
and successful experience 4. Feed
ing for Milk" Mr.. Calvin is a very
interesting and instructive speaker
and should be heard by every farmer
who owns a COW.
In many places in the west farmers
are becoming immensely wealthy
growing alfalfa 1. is a forage crop
rich IN protein and with corn makes
an excellent ration for all kinds of
live stock.
1t can be successfully grown in
Marshall county although many
farmers do not think so. To such
and all others We would say, attend

No Alarm for King Edward

Alarmist rumors have been in cir
culation recently with regard to the
health of King Edward, but it was
learned Thursday that the condition
of the king is not such as to cause
alarm. A member of the household
said that in view of the condition of
the kings throat it was considered
advisable that he remain at Brighton.
His throat has caused him inconven-
fence for some time past, and the
present damp weather of London ag-
gravates it. Some weeks ago, while
a guest at country house, his majes-
ty had to forgo talking on account
of the resulting irritation to his
throat, but otherwise he apparently
enjoys his usual health

AS a tonic Peruna has no superior.
But it is as a catarrh remedy it has
achieved its worldwide notoriety and
success.
Any catarrh remedy to become per-
manently effectual in the cure of ca
tarrh must contain tonic and invigorat,
ing qualities with its anti-catarrhal
qualities. Cafarrh Is always an express
sion Of nerve weakness, either local
or general 1t is, therefore, important
that a catarrh remedy should possess
reliable invigorating qualities in order
to thoroughly rid the system of catarrh.

NEW ORDER TROUBLESOME.
Several Knotty Problems in Putting
Fourth Class Postmasters in Civil
Services Class.

President Roosevelt and the Post
Office Department officials are in
pretty deep water over the order
blanlaeting fourth tlass postmasters
under the civil service 1t is not an
easy matter to make the order effect
i've, for there are several llnotty OBJ
staoles in the way.
Should man have to stand all ex-
animation in geometry, spelling, lit
erary composition and a few other
things to get fourth class postoffice
paying him $50 a year? Would a man
able to pass a creditable examination
in those subjects take position pay
ing $50 year?
Fourth-cfass postoffices are those
paying less than $1,000 year to the
postmasters Over that the Office be-
comes presidential appointment
Is the examination for $50 Offices to
be the same as the 5000 offices?
Would the same class OF men respond
for one as the other?
One proposition. and it is tentative.
is to make the examinations for post
offices paying below 500 a year non
competitive, and have the same ex-
animation for Offices paying above
the amount Another proposition is
of examinations, although this would
require much labor.
Congress is not to be asked TO aid
the administration in solving the
problems coming up, but the views
of the men at the Capitol familiar
with postofice operations were asked
SO that as much light as possible
might be thrown on the subject.

Hanly's Secretary Said to be Favored
by Governor as Republican
House Whip.

A spirited contest for minority
floor leader, or whip" will be one OF
the things that will occupy the atten-
ton OF the Republican members of
the House of Representative when
they gather in Indianapolis next
Tuesday for their ante-legislative
meeting. Several men are being talk
ed of in connect ton with the minority
leadership. Luman X Babcock, pri-
waite secretary to Governor Hanly
and representative from Lagrange
and Steuben Counties, is one of these
Representative Gus Greiger OF
Hanna, who is one of the minority
members of the State Visitation
Committee, is another Others who
are talked OF are Representatives +
/ King of Wabash and Gilbert Elliott
of South Bend
There are some who profess to see
in Babcock candidacy the hand OF
Governor Hanly Babcock has been
a consistent champion of the Cover
nor's measures. He supported the ST.
600 license bill, the blind tiger bill
and the Governors insurance meas
ure during the session of 1907. AT the
special session in September Mr..
Babcock was one of the Governors
strongest co-laborers behind the
county local option bill
Says Hanly Wants Him.
The knowing ones point out that
Governor Hanly 5 vitality interested
in the perpetuation OF the county To-
cal option law, and, with a man like
Babcock at the head of the Republi-
can House organization, the county
local option law might be aided ma
terially in gaining a new lease on
life.
Miles FurnaS, representative from
Randolph County is being favorably
mentioned for nle position OF Repub-
lican caucus chairman at the coming
session
The Democrats may attempt TO un-
seat Repr sentative Babcock in the
House on the grounds that the posi-
ton which he occupies as secretary
to Governor Hanly is lucrative po-
sition and in accepting it Babcock
virtually resigned as representative
Babcock says tina. ne would be re-
nominated and elected at my special
election that might be heid.
