day. Among the score of American

citation, and F. w. Kehl of Madison,
Wis, representing the Western Dane
ing Masters Association.
Delegates of fourteen countries,

tendance at the congress, the object
OF which especially is to advance the
professional spirit and to consider
and choose commission to encour-
age uniformity in two or three dances
such as the waltz and lancers, in every
part of the civilized world, so that
the resident of one country may be
able to dance at least few figures
in any ballroom, precisely as the
others.
The German association met and
determined to substitute German
words for French in dancing term

Monday morning. The family barely
escaped with their lives. and but lit
tie of the property was saved from

AT about 900 O'Clock Sunday even

ing from the summer kitchen, room
adjoining the rear OF the house Upon
investigation the interior of the room
was found to be ahre The family
seized buckets, and in few minutes
had the firt extinguished They then
retired for the night. AT about 200
o'clock Monday morning, Mrs Wick

TO be aflame Screaming she ran from
one room TO another, until she had
her whole family, including a son-in-

The origin of the FIRE is unknown

The lack OF interest in the Demo-
cratic congressional convention was
plainly noticeable Although five
bands of music were present, there
was not one third the amount oi
boomers in town Thursday that there
was on Republican convention day
The bands present were, Elbers from
South Bend, Rodgers from Goshen
Citizens from Rochester, Etna Green
and Plym~ m~uth Elbel's band brought
twenty musicians and a drum major
This band along with Rodgers, rem
dered excellent music, which was
greatly appreciated by all When
the parade formed to march to the
convention grounds, Elbels and
Rodgers bands combined. as also did
the Plymouth and Etna Green organ
izations.
A crowd of about two hundred ar
rived on the 11:19 Vandalia from the
north. These were boomers from St
Joseph and Elkhart counties, but a,
they did not have much to boom,
their enthusiasm run somewhat low
Against this there were over five
hundred from the same territory, in
attendauce to the Republican conven-
ton.
1t is remarkable with what ease
the booms of w. A. McInerny of ST.
Joseph, and A. J. Bunneil of Starl<e
counties, were "squelched" for the
sake of harmony.

Marshall is an excellent speaker, and
from Democratic standpoint made
great speech. He gets nearer to

dress with more witty remarks and
dagger thrusts than does Mr.. Shive-

man of National Committee

Norman +. Mack of Buffalo was
chosen chairman of the Democratic
national committee Saturday evening
after long distance telephone conver-
sations between the Auditorium An

quarters OF Charles w. Murphy and
William J. (Fingy) Conners, in, New
York and Buffalo. and they had
placed the official sanction of thr
Empire state leaders on the New
York committeeman.
The choosing of the chairman en-
tailed long and heated verbal con-
flict among the dozen national COM
mitteemen composing the subcom-
mittee, who gathered in the rooms
of former Chairman Taggarr. Dur
ing the discussions William Jennings
Bryan and John w. Kern, his run
ming mate, sat aloof and ventured few
suggestions or admonitions to the
perturbed leaders.
When the important post had been
allotted the tired leaders made short
work of the naming of the other
members of the national conlittee, as
enumerated above.
1t was decided to postpone the
naming of the various saocommittees
to later date and the announcement
of their membership will be made
from Buffalo within short time.
At the close of the session Secre-
tary Woodson said that the site OF
the Chicago headquarters had not
been determined The parlor floor
of the Sherman house was the one
place viewed most favorably by the

Our greatest evil is impurity, large

yeats teaching the most sacred and
important truths to the young.
Eighty per cent. of the born

wild oats" so per cent of young
men reaching 30 years of age have
sown wild oats" so as to taint their

girls day enter a life of shame. Di-
vorces are rapidly increasing. Un-
happy marriages result in afflicted
children. Insanity has increased 100
per cent, and crime 500 per cent, in
so years. Mulrtudes of girls marry
men who never should be allowed to
marry. In fact, no girl should marry
a man who cannot show a clean bill

FAKlR GETS
MANY SHEKELS
FOUNTAIN PEN CRATER IN
TIME WORN GAME CLEANS
MANY DOLLARS FROM
MOUTH EASY
MARKS MONDAY
EVENING.

"Be generous wit meh, and I'll
show ytu that I'll be gener 1us wi

wit stingy people, buy one OF :h.-c
fountain lens. for one DALAI. Ln1
NH ;'r,:nise yew. yew won t be sur
ry,-n- who'll take the next one fer
dallah!"
Aavwsy he was a good "spe;ler." !"
He raked in the shekels to tae
amount of about 90 "dallahs," on the
old, old graft, of keeping the suckers
in tie belief that they would get their
money back. He talked from a bug
gy on tine corner of Michigan aud
CAIRO streets Monday evening. He
was fat and shiney, and got the suck
ers in good humor by telling them he
drank 50 worth OF booze per day, and
played stud poker by night. When
he opened his sale of fountain pens,
he pulled from his pocket roll OF
bills, and counted off twenty-five
ones. He told the crowd that he was
going to show them something The
first twenty-five men that bought a
pen for one dollar, would not regret
it,-for just matter OF Identification
he would write his initials on the
first twenty-five boxes. OF course
they sold like 'hot cakes" Each
dollar received for fountain pen, he
wrapped with one of the twenty-five
raken from his pocket and deposited
in his hat In this way about % pens
at 81 per were sold The fakir then
asked the suckers II he had promised
them anything. One said no" But
he told them he would make them
glad they spent, and SO gave each
sucker souvenir" spoon. One easy
mark had invested for four pens, an
other said he had two sisters, and
he took two. The pen and souvenir
spoon was worth about Is cents. Fig,
uring on that basis, % times Is cents
equals $3.45, total cost to speiler.
$23 minus $3.45, equals $1955 total
profit TO speiler. W. are awfully
sorry.
