"A handful OF cadets from khe

Cos a visit Sunday afternoon and ev-
ening and left an aroma of disgrace

Soon after the officer and his gang
landed in town he turned the hood
luns loose to prey upon the young
ladies and devoted his afternoon
holding hands with school mistress.
In their great desire for female COM
pany every quarter OF Argos was in
va1ed and three to six ard more were
to be seen to gather around an inno-
cent girl and ply her with their OBJ
noxious attentions. Every young
lady who came within range OF their
Wis :on while passing along the streets
that afternoon was accosted in like
manner. 1t mattered not that they
might chance to pass on the oppo-
site side of the street for the ruffians

None were permitted to escape who
wore fine rosy cheeks OF youth

tended the Gridiron Club dinner
at Washington Friday night.
There is some sport about the

about the other. If / had my way

human nature to prevent specula-
ton. | like racing, and after all
there is no sport in racing unless
there is betting; but that does not

that if the state would make few

lating the morals of the people in
general and the people would
give more attention to individu-
ais the world would be better off.
eff Congress would regulate
the manipulation of the markets,

MUST SECURE LICENSES
New Law Makes Provision
Which Insurance Men Must
Live UP to.

The state insurance depart
ment has sent notices to all in
surance companies doing bust
ness in the state that under the
new law passed by the recent leg
islature and which went into eff
feet last Saturday when Gov.
Marshall's proclamation was is
sued, every insurance agent must
have a license before he may be
allowed to do business, and every
agent who undertakes to do bust
ness without license is liable to
a fine.
Several other new restrictions
are thrown about the insurance
agents under new laws passed at
the last session. Among them is
one which says that any person
who solictS insurance, whether
he is a regularly appointed agent
or not, shall be claSsed as an in
surance agent and must have a
license. Any agent that makes a
false representation ais to the
character of the policy which he
proposes to sell is liable to fine
Any agent who fails to turn over
money due his company is declar-
ed an embezzler and is liable to
punishment. These and other
new restrictive laws are expected
to clean up the insurance bust
ness in the state and weed out a
large number of crooked and un-
desirable agents who impose on
both the company and the public

Hemenway Shows Saving.

Former Senator Hemenway of
Indiana, who to aid the senate
committee on appropriations, has
been probing into the subject of
reducing the expenses of the
government, is evolving figures
that will doubtless give the vari-
Gus departments something like
heart failure. Mr.. Hemenway' S
Investigations are not completed,
but they are far enough along
so the senate leaders think, to
justify the belief that large saw
ings can be made. The perman-
ent annual appropriations, it is
said, can be cut by about $685.
100000 and that much more can
be subtracted from the regular
annual appropriations for the de-
partments. This would mean a
saving of at least $70.000,000 a
year and would be equivalent to
raising that much additional rev.
enue.

Catarrh Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inhamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when 1T is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
fammation can be taken out and thi
tube restored TO its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur

Eat What
You want of the food you need
Kodol will digest it.

You need . sufficient amount Of
good wholesome food and more than
this you need to fully digest it.
Else you can't gain strength, nor
can you strengthen your stomach il
It Is weak.
You must eat in order to live and
maintain strength.
You must not diet, because the
body requires that you eat a suff1c-
lent amount Of food regularly.
But this food must be digested,
and 1t must be digested thoroughly.
When the stomach can't do it,
you must take something that will
help the stomach.
The proper way to do Is to eat
what you want, and let Kodol d.
gest the food.
Nothing else can do this. When
the stomach is weak it needs help;
you must help 1t by giving it rest,
and Kodol will do that.

REFUSE ALL BIDS

stances the DID must be COnSld-
cred as a whole, and cannot be
separated into items, and one OF
more item let to each bidder
Such proceeding would be just
as unfair as it would be illegal
Nevertheless, it was over Just
that contention, that Mr.. Severn:
lost control of his temper, and
refused ITO vote for letting the
contract. 1t will be seen that in
item 5, for the construction of a
tile roof, the O'Keefe bid was
1886, while the EVERY and Wal
lace bid was $239O. Mr.. Severns
thought it possible to let item ),
to O'Keefe, and the remainder t.
Everly and Wallace. Attorney
Martindale explained that such
a proceeding would be illegal,
and could not be done. 1t was
explained that Mr.. O'Keefe could
not construct the roof at the
price quoted in item 5, unless
he was given item /, for he had
included his carpenter work etc,
which would have to be done on
the roof, in item /. However
Mr.. SevernIs maintained that o.
Keefe could be forced to build
the roof, and the roof alone, in
the price quoted in item ). No
amount of argument could CON
vince the commissioner. and Mr..
Lee, rather than let the contract
by majority vote, voted against
letting the contract.
$500 for The Architect.
The county is the loser by the
foolish deal, by over $500. This
latter sum was paid to the archi-
tect from FIT Wayne, for pre-
pairing plans and specifications
for the proposed improvements.
The sudden turn of Mr.. Severns
seems quite tickle, in view of the
fact that the vote in asking for
the appropriation of the county
council, was unanimous.
No improvements Now.
The hopes that the old Court
House would be remodeled, and
given much needed improve
ments, are of course now dashed
AS was stated in the Tribune
Thursday, it was foreseen by
county officials, and those who
had studied the situation, the
commissioners rejected the bids
The reason ,generaly given My
those who foresaw the result
was that the commissioners had
cold feet. In other words they
were afraid to do, or not to do
To show how much the situa-
ton was understood by Mr.. Sew
ems the commissioner who
swung the board. an instance is
given. Chas. J. Eich of this cit,
had filed bid for the plumbing
The bid was the lowest on thi:
item. Mr.. Severns thought that
plumbing included the installa-
ton of the steam boilers anC
complete heating apparatus. HI
was told differently, but refused
to believe his fellow members O
the board and Atty. Martindale
and summoned Mr.. Eich to in
qifire whether the bid on plumb
ing did not include the install
lation of heating apparatus.
Explanation of Position.
The only explanation of the
position taken by Mr.. Severns
seems to be a political one. HI
has stated that he will be can
didate for reelection to the po
sition of county commissioner,
and thinks economy means Jog
