VIM. A. BROWN DIES
Prominent Attorney of New
Castle Succumbs After
Two Years illness.
AN ABLE CRIMINAL LAWYER

New Castle. Ind. Oct. 2O-William A
Brown. 55 years old. prominent lawyer
and politician accredited as one of the
ablest criminal lawyers of the state,
died at his home on East Broad street
at an early hour this morning. Mr..
Browns health began to break about
two years ago, since which time he had
been confined to his home. Paralysis
was his first affliction. but Bright's
disease developed and caused his death.
William A. Brown was born in this
city on March Il. 1854. and spent all Of
his life here. In 1887 he served as a
member of the lower house of the gen.
eral assembly from Henry county. and
again in 1880. Since that time he en-
gagged in the practice of law in this
city and became quite widely known
as a criminal lawyer.

THE PENALTY OF FAME.

IT'S not my role to hunt the pole,
Like Wellman, Peary, Cook. ct al.
l would not rob them Of their Job
To occupy Fame's Gilded Hall.
To freeze my toes where Esquimaux
Chew gumdrops through the Arctic
night
Would not enthrall me with it's call
To make a reckless polar fight.
But if for once I'd done such stunts.
And on my banner perched success;
II I'd looked forth from 80 north
Beyond which point none can pro-
gress;
Then I'd come home, no more to roam !;
Contentedly my days I'd pass,
Tho scribes might write and claim
ants fight
AS others tried to join my class.
l would not tear my rivals hair,
Though in the limelight they might
be,
I'd not aspire thus to acquire
OF honors monopoly,
The only need for daring deed
(And years of eating frozen grub)
fain would ask would be to bask
Outside the Ananias club.

New Means of Sending TeIe.
Grams viii Be Installed
Within a Year.
CHEAPER THAN TELEGRAPH
RECEIVE MESSAGES BY MAIL,
TAPE AND STA
TioNs ESTABLISHED OVER MID
DIE WEST.

Within one year Richmond will be
equipped with a telepost station, stat
ed a we'll known capitalist yesterday.
Officials of the company which is in
stalling the stations are expected here
in the next month or SO, to look over
the ground and chose a location. The
company has just opened it's Indiana
polls station where the local man be-
came interested in the venture and af-
forwards met the officials with the re-
suit that they promised to come to
this city.
The telepost company has the latest
wrinkle in telegraphing. One can
send message by telegram, telelet-
ter, te!epostcards. or by teletapes. and
there is slaughter Of old established
telegraph rates. BY this new service,
the ordinary telegram costs 25 cents
to any point, and instead of ten words,
one may send twenty-five. One may
send additional words at the rate of
5 cents for every ten words added.
These messages are collected and de-
llVereQ Dy the messenger.
But if a person wants to send a
"telepost" he can send fifty words for
25 cents. Instead of the telegram be-
ing delivered by messenger it is put
into an envelope, stamped and drop
ped into the central postoffice i'm
mediately and is delivered on the next
mail delivery
Instead of fifty words for 25 cents,
one gets ten words for 10 cents, and
this is written on a postcard and mail
ed for the next delivery.
kilograms by Tape.
There is still another service-tele-
grams by tape. These are for people
having a great deal of telegraphing
and who are warranted in employing
person who can read the Morse
code Of dots and dashes. BY the new
system, the kilograms are received on
a tape in dots and dashes. Instead of
transcribing this, the new company
will deliver the original tape to the
this service the rate is only Is cents
for 100 words and cents for each
additional twenty words. In addition
to these services, there are even low.
er rates for newspapers and other
such big users of the telegraph.
Line to be Pushed.
The new company is just opening
its Kansas City-New York through
trunk line and Richmond will be on
it, it is said. The service is now in.
stalled in Indianapolis, Terre Haute
Aurora, Springfield. St. Louis and Sc.
dalia, Mo. The line will be pushed
on rapidly into Kansas City and New
York.
The new company's rate is like the
United States postal rate. 1t is Is
cents to Terre Haute. or 25 cents to
the end of the line, be that Kansas
City or New York. The effectiveness
of the new service will. it is pointed
out, be especially noticeable. A per.
son in Richmond at noon will be able
to put twenty-five words into New
York or Chicago and get it into the
afternoon delivery Just the same as
though he were in New York or Chi
cago and dropped his letter in the
post office there at noon, it was stat
ed. 1t is pointed out that the new
service will be especially a short cut
for foreign mails.

THE NEW TURKEY

American capitalists who seek a
field abroad for investment OF their
money, or American manufacturers
who wish to extend their trade in that
direction. will find words OF encour-
agement in a consular report sent the
state department from Constantinoplc
by Special Agent JuNen l.. Brode.
According to Mr.. Brode, the Young
Turks party now in the ascendent, il

try along the broadest lines of progress
as it was in ending the brutal and re.
pressive regime OF Abdul Hamid, I'M
der whose domination Turkey, a land
OF almost boundless resources and i'm
mense possibilities. was probably the
poorest and most wretched in Europe.
Realizing that in the vast plans for
industrial development capital in the
first and the greatest essential, the
Young Turks appeal to the foreigner
and are, it appears. prepared to grant
concessions that would. presumably.
Justify the expenditure Of money in the
reforms they contemplate. OF these
there are many. and the fact that they
include what even rural communities
in America regard as necessaries to the
proper enjoyment OF life. shows the
primitive condition in which Turkey
even now is. 1t will scarcely be be-
lieved that the beautiful city of Con
stantinople the capital OF the empire,
and with population of nearly 1000.
900 inhabitants. has neither an cleo
system nor telephone exchange In
addition. it's water works are wretche,l.
