A board of control bill has passed
both houses of the legislature, and
will probably be approved by the
governor, calling for board of
three members to control the fis-
cal affairs OF the institutions Of the
state. The law is to go into effect
following the next election of state
officers. and II it remains in effect
1t will do away with the present sys-
tenn Of having local boards Of man:
agement for the different institu-
lions and placing their affairs all
under the supervision of one board.

FARMERS AROUSED.
Horse-Thief Gang Operates in
Northern Indiana-T hree
Cases in a Week.

Horse thieves are getting busy
in northern Indiana from the re-
ports made to the police of this
city by outside officials who ask
them to assist in locating stolen
horses.
Chief McWeeny of South Bend
telephoned the police Sunday
that a man named Kinsey, living
four miles south of South Bend,
was the loser of a fine bay mare
stolen sometime Saturday night
The horse was stolen from Kin
Seys pasture.
Deputy Sheriff l. n. Doyle of
New Carlisle, also asked the To-
cal sheriff to look for two black
mares that had been stolen from
that place. Each mare had a star
in her FOREHEAD. One had a collar
sore on its neck and also a slight
sore on the left hind foot.
This is the third time in one
week that the local officers have
been asked to look for stolen
horses. On last Monday a fine
horse and buggy were stolen
from farmer living near Dun,
lap. This horse and buggy were
found and returned to the own
er.

Filial Repression.

There is a tendency for child
rem of exceptional parents to re
gress toward the average stock.
Cation terms this tendency hlial
repression. This it is pointed
out, applies equally to exception
al physical and mental charact-
ers. Thus, though tall stature
may run in certain families, yet
there is always al tendency to re-
vert to the mean average size.
Similarly, the children OF a gen
us tend to have somewhat less
than their fathers power. but
more than the average Of the
race. According to Professor
Pearson, distinguished parents
are just ten times more likely to
have distinguished offspring than
undistinguished parents. Still.
such cases as the Darw;ns. father
and sons the two Pitts, Philip
and Alexander the Great are ex-
ceptional. Similarly. also, the
children of criminal tend to be
less vicious than the father,
though morally inferior to the
average man.--Lafayette Cour-
Ter.

CONGRESS DRAG
UNTIL JULY
SENATE NOT LIKELY TO
FINISH CONSIDERATION
OF TARIFF BEFORE
Wool and Cotton Schedules
Promise to Provoke Much
Heated Controversy.

Washington, May 1S.-From
present indications the special
session of Congress will be pro-
longed into the long, hot dog
days. Many prophets believe that
Sunny Jim" Sherman was too
conservative when yle declined
an invitation the other day to
speak on July Is, on the ground
that the tariff bill was still at
that time be within the pale OF
legislation
The Senate has as yet hardly
touched the surface of tariff leg
lation. The Aldrich bill. contains
224 pages OF rates, to say moth
ing of the pages devoted to the
administrative features, and the
Senate has disposed OF less than
fifty pages. Furthermore, the
wool and cotton schedules and
others that are likely to woke
the most heated controversy
have not been reached. So much
time has already been taken up
by the Senate. and so little pro-
Sress has been made, that many
wonder when that body will fin
iSh the measure. When it does,
there will come the long, warm
days of the conferences when
Payne and the other confereeS
will shut themselves off from the
remainder of the world, to decide
upon the final shaping OF the bill.
The Dingley bill was two
months and three days in its
transit through the Senate, in
1897. Unless better progress is
made during the next month, the
Aldrich bill will consume more
time than did the Dingley bill in
The upper branch of Congress.
If the Aldrich bill is debated
rs long in the Senate as the
Dingley bill was, it will be due
for passage through that body on
Tune Is. Then there will be an
indefinite siege in conference.
The Dingley bill was in confer
nee seventeen days. and unless
all signs fail, the Aldrich bill will
BE in conference a much longer
time. AT this rate, the pending
bill could not be sent to the Pres
dent until we'll along in July.

1t has always been history that
there are few people in a COM

in their midst, until he is lost to
chem. Even so it is with our
own beautiful city. Now for in
stance, who in Plymouth, or in
The state of Indiana, ever dream
ed that Benjamin F. Shively, now
United States Senator, and John
w. Kern, erstwhile candidate for
vice president of the nation. were
both discovered for those respec-
tive positions, by our own editor
c. w. Metsker, of the Plymouth
Democrat. Nevertheless, it is
fact, that had not the attention
Of the great state of Indiana. and
even the nation, been called to
these two men by Editor Nets
ker, in a historical speech at
French Lick, this state, they
would have probably passed
down through history. unknown
and untried. 1t was Our own lit
tie editor who did all these
things, for he himself tells us 50
I'm an editorial in the Plymouth
Democrat OF Tuesday evening.
Here is a part of the egotistical,
Metskeristical, pervericational,
editorial:
However this fact is no argr-
ment against the analvzing OF
public men long In advance OF
convention. When a man is sug-
gested for the presidency public
attention is riveted, upon him AM
he public mind disposes of him
as to his availability. As time
passes he is viewed under the mi
croscope OF changing conditions.
hree years prior to the last ma
tional convention the editor of
this paper in a public address ait
French Lick. suggested Hon.
John w. Kern as fit timber for
the presidency and emphasized
the Importance of Indiana in Ma
tional affairs if Benjamin Shive-
w and some other good Demo
Graf" were in the United States
Senate. He was not posing as a
prophet but he simply called the
