FROM HOOSIERDOM.

Down in Evansville, Ind, lives a man
named Melzer. who ought to have a
special monument as lover OF dumb
animals. He has spent his leis-
ure time and much money for years in
looking after the comfort and welfare
OF unfortunate brutes. This winter
when the hard times made It difficult
for a good many owners of horses to
feed them properly, Melzer furnished
feed and care for all horses in his city
whose owners were unable to care for
them properly. Then he asked the leg
islature to establish a branch of the
state bureau of charities and correc-
lions, which should constitute a sort of
state agency for humane work among
animals.
AS was expected. the legislature could
not find funds for such a work, animals
having no votes and contributing moth
ing to political campaigns. But Meier,
good old Meier, came to bat with an
other proposition. He offered to give
$1,000 to the state for the work ne had
suggested, and the legislature is going
to pass a bill establishing the bureau
for one year, to be operated by Melzer's
funds.
One years experiment will convince
the state authorities that this ap-
parentiy unimportant field is worth
more than its cost, and that it ought to
be permanent fixture in state admin
istration. From what is known of the
Melzer disposition it is reasonably GER
tain the funds will be Forthcoming for
at least another year when the first
one is over, whether the state gives the
money or not.
The name Meier in that part of In
diana is identified with a famous fam
lily of soap makers. Possibly this Mel
ger is one of the family and owes his
fortune to that somewhat prosaic and
unpoetical business. But whatever his
antecedents, his love of brute creation
and his practical way Of accomplishing
good entitls him to rank with the
greatest of poets: his is fine spirit.
and his philanthropy all the more beau
tiful in that the benehciaries have no
way of rewarding him or even of ex-
PRESSING appreciation.

and one of his aides-de-camp. Since
that time Bucknam has made a name
for himself among the Turks and has
been decorated with the order of the
Medjidieh. Buchanan Pasha is the first
Christian to have actual command of
Mohammedans, a distinction which
even Hobart Pasha, the British admit
raj Of the CTimean war. did not enjoy.
1t has been the custom OF the Turks to
place beside every foreign officer a Mo-

thority to command.

DocKETsooK REFORM.

There is something touching, almost
i'm the sudden delicacy
obligations and regard for the ethical
obligations of a profession expressed
in the sudden unanimous announce
ment of the theatrical syndicate and
it's stars that they are opposed to I'M
moral plays and Sunday productions.
Of course, the incidental advertising
carried in such announcements pub
lished broadcast over the country had
nothing to do with this spontaneous
outburst. Any one familiar with the
atrical history knows that the New
York theatre managers who control
the business in this country, and the
stars who act under their direction,
have always been fastidious, almost
fiRicai. about the morality of their pro-
auctions. Some folks might put on a
"Salome" or nasty French play
turned into English by Fitch, but these
moralists would never think of such g
thing A bas the box Office, perish the
stage, burn the costumes. if need be,
but preserve the purity Of the theatre
at any cost, say they.
Seriously. has the syndicate ever be-
fore shown any signs of moral purpose
or regard for clean productions
Have they been suspected Of caring the
cost of a deadhead matinee ticket
whether a plot transcribed the bounds
of propriety or not2 Haven't we had
season after season of the rotten mu-
steal extravaganzas and alleged mu-
steal comedies that contained every eie-
ment of indecent suggestion that would
pass a stupid police supervision? The
most honored of stage plots in recent
years he's been in derision Of decent
married life, a parody on the common
virtues of sohriety and domestic virtue
The most numerous companies on the
stage have been composed largely of
anatomical exhibitions yelled in as
scant costumes as a bIase female cast
would stand for. SO outrageous has
this offense against the better senti-
ment of p1ay-going people become that
a Catholic archbishop and a Jewish
rabbi are found denouncing the Amer
lean stage in the same week and in the
same bitter terms of condemnation as
worse than pagan, unfit to compare
with the worst days of Rome.
We may be pardoned for suspecting
that this sudden outbreak of the con-
trolling theatrical powers against the
unclean is due. not to any change of
heart or desire to uplift a fallen stage,
but rather to definite and increasing
vacancy in the pocket that used to hold
the receipts from the front door; and
we value the press agents assumption
of virtue in the announcements for just
what it is worth-a little less than
nothing.

Why Rheumatism
Cannot be Cured

There are in the world today possibly
millions of people suffering from rheu-
matism. Many of these people have
tried almost every means they know OF
to find a cure. Millions Of dollars are
spent each year on sO-cslled cures.
and in some cases temporary relief is
given.
But the trouble always returns with
painful regularity, The reason that
these "cures" fail to cure Is that they
fail absolutely to get at the cause Of the
trouble. They try to cure the trouble
without curing the cause.
Chiropractic does not work on that
principle II first searches out the
cause and removes IL, and then cures
the trouble. Chiropractic is a natural
cure, and has been proven absolutely
positive.

PARIS, May 25.-When Leopold, King
q the Belgians. made up his mind to sell
some OF his pictures he went to work in
a way betting the man of business he
Ia. He called in two experts. one from
Paris. the other from Brussels, and had
two valuations made. Then he added
from 70 to 6oper cent. to the higher vaila-
ton and opened negotiations with pic
ture dealers.
Mr.. Kleinberger, the Paris dealer.
who says he has bought twelve pictures
from the royalc collections. has already re-
sold two Rubenses to a collector at Frank
fort. who being a Belgian by birth has
the ambition TO get possession OF as many
Of Leopold's pictures as he a n The
other pictures Mr.. K~leinberger has bought
include a Hobbema, one OF his finest
landscapes, and samples OF Franz Halls
and Teniers.
According to Mr.. Kleinberger King
Leopold wishes his subjects to acquire
his collections Of the Flemish and young

option expires negotiations with big
dealers will begin again, notably for a
Rubens for which the King asks 100000
and a oopy of this Rubens by DelacroiX
for which the royal price is $4,000.
Naturally MIR. Kleinberger made in
suiry as to the cause Of these sales. The
King. he was informed, wishes to give
his children "A severe Lesson.
These reasons says Mr.. Kleinberger.
Seemed to me plausible. They may be
