NOVELTY IN HOME AQUARIUM
One That Is Made with a Picture
Frame Front and Intended to
Hang on the Wall.

A novelty In balanced or self-sus-
tanning home aquairiums is made to
hang up on the wall like a picture.
The tank is oblong, narrow at the bot.
tom, but wider at the top. The side to
go against the wall is vertical while
the front slopes up outward, ,-as a pic
ture hangs, and this outer side is in
fact surrounded with picture frame.
The back and ends of this aquarium
are inclosed In a metallic holder, with
hooks at the top by which 1t may be
hung. and at the back between this
metallic holder and the back wall of
the glass tank is inserted a picture, a
landscape having at the bottom in the
foreground a brook.
The bottom of the tank is covered
with gravel, and set in the water is
suitable vegetation sufficient to please
the eye and to keep the water aerated,
and then OF course there are the fishes.
and when you have 1t thus stocked
you hang this aquarium up on the wall
to have the effect of a picture with
fishes swimming around in it.

MISSOURI STATE NEWS (:

Missouri more than held It's own as
wool producing state in the year
1908, according to advance figures Is
sued by the bureau of labor. statistics,
taken from chapter on this subject,
which is being prepared for the 1909

was placed on the market by the
farmers of this state in the year in
question had been made up into uni

William Surface, a Young
Man Undergoes Unusual
Experience Today.
SANITY WAS QUESTIONED
A SHORT TIME AGO THE Ac-
cUSEO PLEAD GUILTY TO A
CHARGE OF HORSE THEFT, BUT
COURT REVIEWS THE CASE.

After having once been sentenced
to the penitentiary for the offense,
William Surface underwent the unus-
ual experience this morning of being
given his liberty and released from
further responsibility. A few months
ago Surface took horse and buggy
belonging to Daniel Harris. Of Clay
township from a public hitching rack
in this city. He drove 1t to Westville.
Surface continued on foot TO mis- home
at New Hope. He was arrested a few
weeks ago and upon a plea of guilty
to the charge of grand larceny was
sentenced to the reformatory. Later a
new trial was granted him.
Questions His Sanity.
In circuit court this morning Prose
cutor Ladd stated he does not believe
Surface is altogether sound mentally
He said he had been informed Surface
has been subject to epilepsy and his
actions have been marked by pecul-
iarities number Of times. The prose
cutor said it was the second time.
however, that Surface had taken a
horse and rig. The first offense was
committed at Eaton. On that occasion
Surface was prosecuted for trespass.
The states attorney did not want to
press the charge of grand larceny but
declared he believed Surface ought to
be sent to Jail for period.
Surface Gets Warning.
The court held there might be some
technicality that would prevent q con-
viction upon the charge of trespass
in connection with the Harris case.
He warned Surface to mend his ways.
He told him his condition when un-
der the influence of liquor was not
such he could not discriminate be-
tween right and wrong and IL ever
again he came under local Jurisdiction
on the same charge, he would not be
shown any leniency.

Prosecutor in Any County
Where One Takes Place

At the Violation.
GRAND STAND PLAYS

If States Attorneys Fail to
Perform Their Duty the At

The Action. .-

Indianapolis, Feb. 1O.-H the prose-
cutting attorney in any county where
a prize fight takes place does not pros
ecute the offenders Governor Marshall
will instruct the attorney general to
og to the place of the violation and
prosecute the offenders.
But" said the governor, Il am not
going to PREJUDICE men. l am not go
ing to say that a man is a criminal
before he commits any act, and l am
not going to make any grand stand
plays. When any citizen furnishes
me with information that prize fight
has taken place in Indiana, will noti-
fly the prosecuting attorney to proceed
against the participants and if he fails
to do so. l shall instruct the attorney
general to conduct the prosecution in
the name of the state.''
Makes Position Clear.
The position of the goveror on the
question of prize fighting is made clear
by the fact that there is a clamor that
it is up to him to stop it. So far as
the governor knows there has not been
any prize fighting in Indiana since he
became governor. Friends of the gov
ernor say that he can not punish 4
man before a crime has been commit
ted. and after a prize fight has been
held. if any are held, no one seems to
be wiling to give any information
about it.
One question that is still unsettled
In the light of the governors declara-
ton, is that of what constituted prize
fight Mayor Bookwalter of this city,
said yesterday that the contests that
are held in this city are not prize fights
but boxing contests and that there is
no law to prohibit them.

Cause Of the Deed.
For the last three weeks Captain
Leffler, as president Of the Hanover
township board of education. had been
engaged in q controversy with several
members Of the board. Both sides
gave many statements to the local
press, and it is believed the contro-
versy SO preyed upon the mind Of
Captain Leffler as to cause him to be-
come mentally unbalanced over sup
posed reflection upon his honor.
Asked Son to Come.
Captain Leffler called his son, John
Leffler Of Hamilton, over the tele-
phone several times yesterday and
urged the young man to come out
home, saying that he was ill. A
neighbor who had been sent to the
Leffler home by the son to see what
the trouble was discovered the life
less body Of the father. Captain Lef-
fler had placed the shot gun against
his breast. pushed the trigger with a
cane and the contents of the gun
piercing his heart. Leff1er died in
stantly. His daughter, Miss Emma

Hanover township. arrived home few
minutes after her fathers body had
been discovered. Leffler was married
twice. Mrs. Westcott is daughter of
the first wife.

No Application to City Of

ALL RUFFLED FEELINGS

Statement Is Made That Bill
Applies Only to Towns that
Use River Water for Drink
ing Purposes.

The alarm on the part of the Com

the stream pollution bill will put the
city to an enormous expense and in
volve the reconstruction OF its sewer
system is unfounded. BY telephone
today DR.. J. N. Hurry of Indianapolis.
secretary of the state board of health,
informed the Palladium the citizens of
this community are unnecessarily
aroused. DR.. Hurry explains that the
bill is SO drawn that it will apply on
ly to cities where the stream is made
use of to supply the drinking water.
That is not the case in Richmond.
Not Applied Locally.
Richmond does not drink out of the
Whitewater and there are no cities or
towns below Richmond along the route
of the stream that depend upon the
water for drinking purposes" stated
the doctor. "The bill provides especial
ly against emergencies of this kind
so unless a city or town springs up
and uses the Whitewater to drink, the
measure will not apply to your CITY,
the secretary continued.
Report Brings Relief.
It will be great relief locally to
learn it will not be necessary to con
struct trunk sewer and filtration
plant at the cost of approximately 2
half million dollars. Under the impres-
sion that the bill would have local ef
feet, the Commercial club has provided
for resolutions urging the Legislators
from this county to oppose the adop
tion of the measure. 1t has been de
clared to comply with the bill. if it be-
come a law, would bankrupt the city
and such heavy taxes would be i'm
posed as to make owners lose Their
property. The reconstruction of the
entire sewer system of the city with
the exception oft he new southwest
system would have had to follow. II
any city or town south of Richmond
used the water for domestic purposes
this city would have been effected.
