DOB" WAS NOT THERE
Hammond Man Fails Con-
sequently to See Eclipse
Yesterday.

They are having quite time today
with Morris Dobson. proprietor OF the
Emporium on South Holman street.
OF course, the eclipse OF the sun was
seen by thousands Of people in Ham
mond yesterday and was a general topic
of conversation.
Somebody met Debson this morning
and incidentally asked him If he had
seen the eclipse yesterday in Ham
mond.
Eclipse" said Morris. NO, I didn't
see no eclipse. I was not in town yes
terday.
Morris evidently thought that the
eclipse was pulled off for Hammond

HOW FRITZ KOCH DIED
Especial to Tfmes.l

Terre Hauts, Ind, june 29.-Leroy
Ligan shot and killed Koch about o
o'clock last night on his way home
from church. 1t seems Koch and some
other boys had tsvitted him about his
religion, he having JOiRed church
some time ago and possibly had him
worked up to state of frenzy. He
said they had threatened him. He left
the church and got revolver and COM
ing back and on the way home after
some words the killing occurred. He
surrendered himself shortly after and
is held without ball for full tnvestl-
cation.

bbe Jefferson,an

country cannot endure half proleta-
rian and half plutocratic. You can
not permanently maintain a work
ing class alongside of 'moneyed'
class. If half Of you are drudges,
without ideals, without freedom, they
will drag the other half down into
their slavery. You will all be druid
ges; you will all disbelieve in your
own ideals; you will all live from
hand to mouth. Your upper class
cannot be free until you have freed
your lower class. If you would have
a fortuned class, delivered from sor-
didness and the shiver Of panic, you
must plan to have a rich society. You
must abolish poverty. 1t is high time.
With all your modern tools hunger
and houselessness is an anachronism.
With these tools every worker can
produce ten times as much as he bare
ly needs. And if any considerable
class Of your workers-even tenth
of them-get only the necessaries of
life, or less than that, warn you that
the loot of their unpaid labor will
corrupt your system from root to top
and bankrupt your society. It is not
safe to have even few slaves. You
cannot afford to have even small
class of necessitous people-people
that shiver in the bread line. .

absence of men make the plants grow
more freely? Is there any psyche
logical or any other reason why the
presence of male humanity will stop
plant development? Men are mighty
handy around the house, especially
after dark, when the owls boot, the
frogs croak, the bugs fly around, and
the snakes and lizards sneak through
the grass. And then if the average
woman can not have man to boss
and order around and lay all the
blame on, what will life be worth to
her? It's reasonable to predict that
Madame Davidoff will be Madame
Leavitoff in year or two. Women
without men are utter failures, and
vice versa.-Columbia State.

THE "CoN'L," sab!

On the strength Of the evidence be-
fore the public, the South will not be
hasty to vaunt the Tennessee
"Conl" Duncan Cooper) of the
late civil war, as type of the gal
lantry and chivalry of that great pc
Rod.
1t is, indeed, to be noted that these
"majahs" and these econ Isl whose
"gallantry and chivalry" are most in
evidence in print, are not those who
left the most legible tracings on the
history of that bloody period.
1t is entirely likely that Tennessee,
machine-ridden as it is, has people
and a press more alert than we some
times are to punish murder and at
tempted murder.
Carmack is one of the very few
Southern men who has stood out in

the giants Of personal popularity, Of
political astuteness and of force Of

say: "Wen, there is John Sharp

there is liable to be a long hiatus just
at that point.-The Harlequin.

THE DREADED BLOW FALLS.

We have lived in fear of this an
nouncement that comes from Fort
Worth. Hoping against hope as the
days passed and the blow was delay
ed, we now resign ourselves to the
inevitable. At least suspense is at
an end.
William Jennings Bryan is report
ed as saying that if the party de-
mands and the conditions warrant it
he will be candidate for the Presi-
dency in 1912.
Since Mr.. Bryan is now the Demo-
cratic party there can be no room for
doubt as to the existence of the de-
mand. The conditions that would
warrant his running are also wholly
in his own hands, as he alone will be
the judge of them. IF he can devise
some new policies to substitute for
those that have been already proved
improbable from a vote making
standpoint, the only essential condi-
ton should be supplied. In his abil-
ity to meet this requirement we have
absolute faith His ingenuity will
not fail him.
Our fear, above referred to, is not
caused by any apprehension that the
result will be different from what it
has been on previous occasions, but
merely because we are wearying of
the deadly monotony this perpetual
candidacy forces upon a long suffer
ing people.-Louisville Herald.

THE BREAD LINE.

The "bread line" is more than a
tragic incident of the "stringency";
it is the most perfect type of what's
the matter with us generally. The
bread line reaches from Eastport
to San Diego, and we are all in it
every man of us. Every one Of us
doctors, lawyers, priests, merchants,
mechanics and millionaires-is tremu-
lous for his bun and porridge, and
keeps his place in the long queue with
Jealous dread. We have consented
that the poor should be driven by the
lash Of necessity, and so we all hear
the whistle Of the blacksnake. The
man that works because he must gals
the heel of the man that loafs be-
cause he must; both walk in the same
bread line. Both are sullen. Both
are INDECENT. Both have missed the
meaning of life. The anxious, irasci-
BILE Mr.. Morgan, bullying the scared
bankers into momentary union; our
sulky, saturnine Lorenzo di Medici,
with his bales of books and acres of
pitcures that he does not understand
he, perhaps, brings up the rear of
the bread line. But he is certainly
there.
Abraham Lincoln said that the
country could not possibly endure
half slave and half free. He made a
limited application of the precept.
But he, of all men, was most capable
of expounding it's wider and pro-
founder implications. Lincoln didn't
say what follows here. But he might
have done so-with Improvements
if he had had time for the study of
certain phases Of political economy,
latent in his day and requiring the
eye of the seer, but now overt and
plain to any observer.

A USELESS EXPERIMENT.

That idiotic absurdity, an "Adam-
less Eden," which has so often been
tried without success, is about to have
another inning. This time the ex-
pertinent is to be made on Long ISL
and, and a Russian woman, one Ma
dame Davidof, is the promoter. It
may be that her experience with the
men of her own country has soured
her on mankind, but it is safe to pre-
dict that she will fail if she tries it
with the women Of this country.
What the original Eden would have
been without an Adam, is most per-
tinent question. And if it was not
good for man to be alone, how much
less good it would have been for wo-
man to live alone.
It is to be supposed that snakes
will be barred, and that will be an
other variation from the original
garden. If a real serpent should find
the way into this new Eden it is rea-
sonable to suppose that the place
would soon be vacated and it would
not be much better if rats and mice
should sneak into the forbidden
grounds. One of the objects of this
venture is to try the experiment of
growing fruits and flowers through
out the winter with the aid of cleo
tricity, and one account states:
"Madame Davidoff is a writer for
magazines. She says the experiments
will be based on the theory that the
growth Of vegetable matter, which
ceases at shutdown, will continue
through the night if proper artificial
light is supplied to stimulate the de-
sweloping powers Of plants. Fruits and
flowers that are grown in this section
only in the spring and summer
months, she believes, can be Guilt
waited during the entire year by sup
plying necessary artificial light
through the electrical process that will
be adopted
This is all very well, but will the

AFTER THE BATTLE,

eve have STOOD" says the Mobile
Register, "by the ship until the end,
and participated in the sorrows of the
shipwreck. We doubt if the mate
rails that are left are worth reassem-
bling, but time will tell, and we shall
wait and see. Of one thing we are
sure: that the rebuilding Of the ship
on right lines from the salvage will
be extremely difficult and that it may
be easier to throw away the old and
begin anew, as the makers of our
constitution did when they found the
articles of confederation inadequate
to the need of the republic.''
The New Orleans Picayune takes an
even more pessimistic view of the
situation when it says:
cit looks as if the Democratic par
ty as political power, has come to an
end. It will continue to exist in some
Of the States for local purposes and
there will always be a dominant
white party in the South, but as
national power the indications are
that Democracy will play very
subordinate part. Issues are chang
ing with great rapidity. The Repub-
lican party is the parent of all the
great private fortunes in the Union
and Of all the vast corporate monopo-
lies and trusts. Under it's fostering
care a money power has been created
and built up, and Of necessity the
offspring must stand for it's parent in
a struggle that threatens both.
Realizing, as the American people
will, that no constitutional conserva-
tive organization like the grand old
party of constitutional guarantees and
Jeffersonian principles can overthrow
a political party intrenched and main
tanned by a vast consolidation Of
wealth, the time will come when
means will be found, not provided for
in the National Constitution, to work
such changes as the people may and
surely will demand"
These explanations of the causes of
defeat are very natural in the position
the national Democracy finds itself in.
But there such a thing as saving
the pieces in a wreck, and the fifteen
States of the South can, while saving
themselves from home dangers, offer
a nucleus for party, be it old or
new, which will defend the rights of
the States and offer to individuals a
fair field and no favors. There must
still be room for Jeffersonian doc
trines in this country, and the sole
chance for procuring Jeffersonian
party seems to be conferred by circum-

REMEMBER THE WOMAN I'M
RAGS.
By Joel B, Fort.

The rumble and roar of the city to
hear,
The gay and the festive lay,
Brings joy and comfort to my list
ming ear
And hope for the coming day.
But a joy never comes, else sorrow
comes, too,
And following the sun, there's a
cloud,
For the rich man arrayed in purple,
and blue
Is followed by the pauper crowd.
Oh! God hear the cry of the needy
and poor,
The rich man has comforts, and lags
In the bounties that come to the la
borer's door,
But remember the woman in rags.

COMFORT FOR RBY
INDISPENSABLE CLOTHING FOR
THE WINTER.
Flannel Bands and Shirts the First
Necessity--All Garments for
Little One Are Easily
Made at Home.

A winter baby has needs that the
youngster who arrives in the spring or
summer knows nothing about. His
clothing must be warm, above all
things. Babies grow quickly, and OF
late years mothers are beginning to
realize that too many things of one
kind are foolish extravaganza. Three
flannel bands and three flannel shirts
are the first necessity. If one can
knit, by the way, or knows some old
lady who does, it is a good plan to
have the bands made by hand, as they
are warmer and softer than the ma
chine-made article
There must be three flannel skirts,
two plain ones, and another a little
more elaborate for company occasions
Dress-up clothes for babies are getting
to be less and less the style now that
people are beginning to see that 1t is
bad for the child to be paraded about
for company to poke in the ribs and
kiss on the mouth Either the little
princess model for which there are
many patterns, or the wide waist
band may be used for these flannel
skirts. Be careful, however, that all
the skirts are of the same weight, for
a change might cause fatal cold to
the newly arrived winter baby.
Four underskirts of flannel also
are necessary, and these may be cut
on the same lines as the outer skirt,
il one wishes Four little cotton night
dresses, gathered into band at the
neck and with plain bishop sleeves,
will also be necessary. They must
be very simply trimmed a plain lawn
frill around the hand being enough.
Then there must be six simple
presses for every day and two nicer
ones for best.
The common dresses should be
made with yokes, either tucked or
trimmed with insertion, and both neck
and sleeves may be finished with a
tiny lace frill. These dresses should
be SO inches long when finished,
though the best dresses may be long
er if one wishes. Cambria, nainsook
or English cloth are the best mate
rials.
Cambria might be used for the
everyday dresses, long cloth for the
nighties, while the finer nainsook is
reserved for the best slips. For out
door wear on mild days there should
be warm flannel bonnet, which one
could embroider in silk floss; or a
plain flannel lining should be used,
with an outside of china silk. A fan
mel shawl or two to put on inside the
coat and for house wear also will be
necessary, and there should be a
dainty nuns yelling wrapper, quilted
with sheets of lambs wool. Then
there must be little wool booties and
a loose warm wrap of some heavy
woolen material like poplin or pru-
nella, lined with china silk. Any Of
these things may be made at home.
