America is not only carrying moral light into the dark places of the earth. but agriculturally is doing a similar beneficent work. Among other evi. dences of this may be cited the fact that within the past few weeks the czar of Russia has offered l.. R. Clore of Franklin. Ind. the boss corn raiser of the country, $4.000 a year for three years and all expenses to go to that country and show the peasant farmers how to raise American corn.

Investigations which have recently been made by Uncle Sans biological survey as to the bill of fare of the kingbird have brought out the inter. esting and remarkable fact that. while he does now and then eat bees. 1t is the drones and not the workers which are his victims. When this announce ment was first made beekeepers were wont to consider 1t as a pretty good joke but their curiosity led them to make some investigations for them selves. and they found the department specialists were correct. Not only did the kingbird not attack workers. but he devoured many varieties of injuri- ous winged insects. while his hostility to marauding crows and hawks Is a point to his credit. which is . matter of everyday observation.

East Chicago. Ind, Oct. 12.-Consid-
ering the bad weather which prevailed
there was a good crowd out last night
to hear and see Hon. James r. Brad
ley, the cartoonist and clay modeler. at
the Methodist church. The church was
fairly well filed, but the audience was
composed chiefly of holders Of season
tickets.
Mr. Barkley appeared promptly at s
o'clock and opened his entertainment
by drawing cartoons of prominent peo-
pie This was followed by the recita-
tion of poems from well-known au-
thors, the cartoonist Illustrating the
poem as he went along. Bongfellow
and Riley seemed to be his favorites,
although he did not confine himself to
them. He recited That Old Sweetheart
Of Mine" from the latter poet, and his
portrayal of the man sitting smoking
his pipe and lost in revery, his thoughts
appearing in the smoke as it curled
from his pipe wa. perfect and certain
w true to life.

CROWD COMES OUT
To FINE entertainment

When the exhibition in drawing car
toons was finished Mr. Barkley turned
his attention TO clay modelling and the
rapidity and precision with which he
threw together the figures Of we'll
known characters excited the wonder
and admiration of his audience, He
made figure of the typical American
girl, smiling piquant and altogether
charming. and then with few deft
touches transformed her into the sour
grabbed and cranky old maid.
Mr. Barkley, who is under the di-
rection Of the Glazier Lyceum bureau
certainly made a most emphatic hit
with his audience, and as his was the

next entertainment has not yet been
decided on. but will be announced later.

in great shape.
The Specials started in like winners,
making two runs in the first and three
to and Hubbard looked as though
the market had gone against him. He
was a sight, he was. He looked like
the fellow who is trying to borrow a
nickel on long time. McMahon's pitch
ing had allowed four base hits, but
he did not seem to mind ii a bit. He
just kept pegging away. In the last
half of the third inning Amen coming

John Papp of the Standard Steel Car
district is getting so prominent there
that he can't leave town without all his
friends and neighbors there wanting to
know where he is going. HIS failure to
return on the same day is generally the
cause for various rumors. ranging all

since last Friday. returning last even

in Chicago acting as interpreter in a

entering the ranks of the benedicts was
premature as he will not take this
important step until after the election.

Taggart made an announcement Sat

while he was here he was asked what

tinue this policy Of inactivity.

employs the same kind of agility that
the Taggart crowd has used in years
past it will mean lively campaign in
which all the tricks of the trade will
be used. When Charles A. Gauss, the
democratic candidate for mayor of this
citv. was nominated it was known that
he was not satisfactory to Taggart In
fact. long prior to the primaries Tag
CART came out openly for Charles b.
clark. the other candidate for the
nomination He said Clark was the
better man Of the two for mayor, and
all OF the Taggart push got behind
clark and tried to put him through
But it failed to land him. and Gauss
was nominated by an overwhelming
vote.
City Activity Means state Activity.
About that time Taggart made the
declaration, so it is said, that he in
tended to retire from active participa-
ton in politics in Indiana. and that he
would hereafter attend strictly to bus
mess. Few people took any stock in
this declaration, however. because
they could not bring themselves to
think Of Tom Taggart out of politics.
Those who did pay any attention to
his declaration took it to mean that
Taggart would not even take hand
in the city campaign.
The general opinion now, however.
is that if Taggart intends to jump
into the city campaign after intimating
that he might retire from active poll
tics he will also be in the game in the
next state campaign, just as he has
always been
The way to retire is to retire" said
one man. today, and If Taggart is not
going to retire from city politics he is
not likely to retire from state politics.
Movement to Gust Him Gains.
That about expresses the feeling
here. So Governor Marshall, John w
Kern and the rest Of the antis who are
figuring on putting the rollers under
Taggart may as well begin now, 1t is
believed. and get ready for fight that
Will make the fur fly. It is undoubt-
edlv true that the movement to put
Taqgart on the hummer" so for as the
control of the democratic state organi-
cation is concerned is gaining ground
every day. and that there is good
prospect that it may succeed The
work is being carried on quietly but
effectively. however.
Taggart was quoted in a dispatch
| from Toledo, a few days ago, as saying
that W. J. Bryan was on the shelf.
Taggart stopped in Toledo on his way
back home from Cape Cod. and was in
terviewed by a newspaper man. Evil
IDENTIFY it was the first time that man
ever tried to get anything out Of Tag
CART. for the newspaper men who are
familiar with his methods of respond
ing to an Interview know how hard it
is to get him TO say anything definite
/ y. When Taggart got back here he
said he was misquoted IN the Toledo
dispatch What he really said accord
ing TO his statement, was that Bryan
had made the race for president three
| times and he could not see any symp-
toms that he would run again. This
OF course. is only another way of say
ing that Bryan is on the shelf. but it
shows the oily way Taggart has oil
