Newspaper Man Well Cared For
At The Wayne Circuit Court

Down at Connersville and Rushville
the newspapers are making demand
for press table in the court room.
The papers claim their representa-
tives are shown no courtesies. They
are requested to find seats wherever
possible and often they have to perch
on the backs of chairs when the room
is crowded. No such complaint en-
mates from the local newspaper writ
ers. Probably more courtesies are
accorded the newspaper men of this
city by the circuit court room attaches
than at any other place in the city.
A splendid writing table is provid-
ed and the newspaper men find their
places reserved by John Markley, the
bailiff. whenever an important trial Is
in progress. The court is especially
kind to the reporters and likewise the
clerk and court stenographer. The
latter often makes extra copies of leg
al documents for the help of the re-
porters. The Judge permits copies Of
his instructions to iuries, points in
rulings he is to make, and other writ
ten matter to be seen BY the report
ers. II they are crowded for time be-
fore he reads them In court. And the
newspaper men appreciate It. The
clerk, bailiff. sheriff or any of the
other officials Of the court will tele-
phone late reports and In this man
ner render valuable assistance to the
reporters.

STYLES IN BABYS FOOTWEAR
Immensely Attractive Are Some Of the
Designs Shown for This
Purpose.

Even the baby has come In for his
share of pretty styles of footwear.
White pique, laced with linen cord, is
a clean, attractive style for morning
wear. There are the most cunning
little felt Juliets, edged with white
rabbit skin for the bedroom.
Kid boots of pale colors offer soft.
ness and durability, for in the modern
day Of "cleansers," soiled pair can
easily be freshened up. A dainty lit.
tie pair Of white silk bootees is en-
broidered with silk or tiny silk ribbon.
Most novel Of all is the idea Of
using small piece Of Irish lace,
which you have kept just because you
have been waiting for some use to be
made Of it. Over a colored silk foun.
dalton this lace is spread, and it's
fowerlike beauty is delicately sppro.-

had its origin in Central America,
Mexico or the southwestern part Of
the United States.
The potato was not known in Eu-
rope until after the expedition of Sir
Walter Raleigh, and it is supposed
that 1t was he who carried 1t to Eu-
rope in 1885. Other authorities claim
that Sir Francis Drake carried this
important product to England in 1886.

and one white, were mentioned in an
important work on English gardening.
