MINERS INDULGE
IN RACE RIOT

Terre Haute, Ind, March 3O.-F1Ve
American miners are known to have
been wounded, one perhaps fatally,
in a race riot last night at the Boyle
mines north of Jasonville. The bat
tie started when Hungarian miners
opened fire upon a delegation of
American miners who went from ia
sOnviIle to warn the foreigners to
leave the mines.
The Hungarians are barricaded in
one Of their houses and are surround
ed by several hundred Americans
armed with revolvers and shotguns.
The Hungarians are armed with old
army rifles, which they purchased at
Terre Haute during the winter. The
house which the foreigners have
adopted as a stronghold has been
riddIed with bullets and it is thought
many of the foreigners have been
wounded.
Howard Harstine, an American, is
expected to die of his injuries He
was shot in the breast with a shot
gun. An American miner named Nc
Combs is also seriously injured

Nervous
Prostra alton

Il suffered so with Nervous
Prostration that I thought there
was no use trying to get we'll. A
friend recommended DR.. Miles
Nervine, and although skeptical
at first, I soon found myself re-
covering, and am to-day well. )"
MRS. D. I. JONES,

Much sickness is Of nervous
origin. It's the nerves that
make the heart force the blood
through the veins, the lungs
take in oxygen, the stomach di-
gest food, the liver secrete bile
and the kidneys filter the blood.
If any of these organs are weak,
it is the fault OF the nerves
through which they get their
strength. DR.. Miles Nervine is
a specific for the nerves. It
soothes the irritation and assists
in the generation of nerve force.
Therefore you can hardly miss
it if you take DR.. Miles Nervine
when sick. Get a bottle from
your druggist. Take it all &C
cording to directions, and If it
does not benefit he will return
your money.

WISCONSIN, OWN
HELEN KELLER
FINE ACHIEVEMENT WITH A
DEAF, DUMB AND BLIND
GIRL.
CAN TALK AND USES TYPE
WRITER FOR ALL COM
MUNICATlONS.

DeIayan. Wis. March 28.-Anna
Johnson of CoIfax, is Wisconsins
Helen Keller. Deaf and dumb at
birth, blind at 10, and robbed of the
use of a limb at II, this Wisconsin
girls remarkable progress in the state
school for the deaf has attracted the
attention of leading educators, all of
whom acknowledge that she will at
tain-if she has not already-the pro
ficiency in the arts and sciences of
Helen Keller.
Remarkable cases Of aptitude in
blind children, or in deaf and dumb
children, are frequent in the state
school, but this case, where the two
Affections are combined, and still an
other added, is bringing honor to
Superintendent Z. w Walker, and
Miss Ethelwyn Hammond, special in
structOr Of Miss Johnson. Under tut
ton of Miss Hammond, Miss Johnson
has actually learned to talk. This is
not remarkable in deaf and dumb
children, as a large majority of pu-
pts leave the Wisconsin school able
to converse intelligently, though not
able to hear. Speech is taught by
watching the lips of instructors as
they mouth this or that vowel or
this or that complete word. 1t can
readily be seen how difficult this talk
is with blind pupil who cannot
watchthe lips.
Miss Johnson was taught to speak
through the sense of touch. This is
acute in her. as in many keen blind
students. She found out how to form
vowels or words by touching the lips
of her instructor. When Miss John
son was enrolled in the school, the
case was puzzling to the superintend-
ent. To be successful in giving her
a good education, the theory and prac-
tice Of two state schools had to be
utilized, that of the blind school and
the deaf school. In a comparatively
short time, superintendent Walker
has brought the young woman to the
point where she is able TO go out into
the world alone and be not depend
ent on others.
Miss Johnson eXcells many ordinary
deaf children at the school in history
and literature. In domestic science
she has attained a high degree Of pro
ficiency. She sews well. She uses
the typewriter with facility. She is
a rapid writer on typewriters. All
her lessons are prepared on the type
writer.
Miss Hammond, her instructor, to
whom is due much Of the success of
Miss Johnson, is the daughter Of H.
C. Hammond superintendent Of the
Kansas state school for deaf at
Olathe
A bone disease necessitated the
amputation of Miss Johnson's left
leg at the hip, three years ago. AS an
evidence Of the esteem in which she
is held here, the officers and teaching
fund and an order has just been
placed for a wheel chair, such as was
commonly used at the Chicago and
st. Louis worlds fairs to wheel in
vaiids or weary sightseers about.
With this chair, Miss Johnson will be
able to move about, do the same
work, and have nearly as much pleas
ure out of life as the person who can
see. hear, walk, talk, and enjoy life
in all its fulness.

went to his home at Moss Bluff to fix
up his final reports and accounts and
will leave Sunday for Tallahassee,
where he win witness the inaugural
ceremonies of Governor Gilchrist.
Mr.. Lewis is just back from the
Everglades, where he was with Gov
ernOr BrOward's party, inspecting the
progress of the drainage, now nicely
under way. He says that two canals
are being dug and one has gone a dis
lance Of about twelve miles in the d.
rection Of Lake 0keeehObee from Fort
Lauderdale, and the other eight miles.
The canals are ten feet in depth and
sixty feet in width, On the tenth Of

lieyed will be ready for cultivation.
Mr.. Lewis says that already one
thousand acres have been planted to

CONTRACT WITHOUT A PLANT
And Plant Without Contract is Status
Of Florida State Printery.

Tallahassee, Jan. 1.-The case of the
Capital City Bank VS.. the Capital Pub
fishing Company and the Sun Publish
ing Company, is still in litigation, but
several of its most important details
have been materially altered by new
decree Of Judge Malone.
The Office of receiver, recently be-
slowed upon James A. Ball, vice-presi-
dent Of the Capital City Bank, was re-
VOked and Joseph A. Edmondson, attor-
ney at law, was made master of the
court and empowered to sell all the
property Of the publishing company
that was included in the mortgage
given to the Capital City Bank. Under
the first decree it was assumed that the
mortgage included, in addition to the
salable portable property, the shares of
stock owned by Mr.. Claude L. L Engle,
president of the Capital Publishing
Company, and the contract for State
printing, and Mr.. Ball had appointed
Mr.. John G. Collins as his agent to 90
on with the business of printing the
public records; but this morning under
the provisions of the new decree, Mr..
L'Engle again took charge and Mr.. Ball
and his agent retired.
AS far as can be understood, Judge
Malone's decision leaves the bank in
possession Of a printing outfit without
a contract, and Mr.. L EngIe in posses
sion Of contract without a plant.
The affair, to the public mind, seems
quite complicated, and a good deal Of
feeling is manifested by the parties
most interested.
