Indianapolis. Ind, April 21.-Gover.
nor Marshall has arrived home from
his eastern trip where he made a hit.
and the first thing.he did was to send
out word that he wishes to be left
alone long enough to make up his
mind whom he will appoint to the va
rious places that are now at his COM
mand to be filled. Droves of candi-
dates and friends of candidates have
swarmed into the governors office
since Mr.. Marshall took office. But
now the time has arrived when the
appointments must be made, and the
governor does not propose to be both
cred with them any longer. From
this time forth, according to the story
that is going around. the candidate
who keeps away from the governor
will have the best chance to win. The
fellow who devils the life out of him
and sends his rooters around to do
the same will get it where Minnie

the selection Of the men to carry out

must be a chief accountant at $4,000

bureau, and there will be also two dep

these places, and it will take weeks
and weeks for me TO pick out the men
for the places. And the more they
bother me the longer time it will take
to get them"
Gives Rosy Account.
The governor gives a rosy account
of his trip East, the banquet he at

made his speech that took SO we'll and
caused him to be talked Of more than

invited him and Mrs. Marshall to take
dinner at the White House on Sunday;
of his visit to Columbus. Ohio. where
he studied the workings Of the Ohio
public accounting law after which the
Indiana law was patterned. and where
he had a long chat with Governor Har-

The governor refused to pay any at
tention to the talk about his being a
candidate for president. He does not
believe in it. 1t Is spreading over the
country. but he is not doing any of the
spreading himself.
Mrs. Marshall, who made the East

in much better health than when she
started. She had been i'll for several
weeks. and had to undergo an opera

that much of the illness of today was
due to the filthy foods. He believes
| the law will prevent it. Furthermore
the laws provide that persons with
syphilitic, contagious or communion
able diseases cannot be employed In
food factories. This law has a penal
clause, which adds to it's efficiency.
Three years ago IS per cent of all
foods in groceries we're adulterated. he
declared. He spoke of oysters. maple
syrup and other foods as examples.
Two years ago 100000 was spent in
Indiana for watered oysters.
Mr.. Owens declared that for the en-
forcement of the laws. it depended
largely on the consumer. He said.
that state inspectors were to few in
number to do all the work. He urged
that those present mold public senti-
ment by talking pure food and santa
ton in their clubs and gatherings. He
said that public sentiment favorins
these laws would compel the retailers
and wholesalers to obey the laws. He
concluded his appeal for support OF
the laws by stating the women hold
the key to the situation.
Tuberculin Test.
He then gave consideration to the
tuberculin test and dairy business. He
said that he was not familiar with con-
ditions as they exist in the diaries
furnishing milk to this city at present,
but unless Richmond was an excep-
ton, it would be well to test the dairy
cows for tuberculosis. He declared
that the average in the state was 10
cows in every 100 which reacted to
the test. He emphasized his remarks
by stating that so per cent of the tu-
berculosis cases was attributed to DO.

passage of a milk ordinance which
contained the tuberculine test pro-
vision and provision licensing the
dairyman.
Mr.. Owens in the general discussion

are higher because of certain market
conditions, but that the present pure

AN OFT TOLD TALE.
New Version Of An Old Tragedy at
Battle Swamp.

Editor Brinton, of the Oxford
Press, came to Rising Sun last
Saturday and took a ride to Battle
Swamp with j. @. Hindman. In
recounting his impressions in this
weeks issue of the Press Bro. Brin.
ton hands out a column and a half
of bouquets to all the Cecil count
tians along the route of his sjoy
ride.0
Arriving at the former home of
Charles Barnes, near Woodlawn,
Bro. Brinton listens to new YER
sion of a double tragedy which
occurred there nearly quarter cen.
tury ago. The version as related
to him by his companion of Satur.
day last, Perpetual Candidate for
Sheriff Hindman, is rather more
lurid than accurate, as can be at
tested by Ward Brown and George
Tyson who were the men who first
entered the house to capture the
crazy murderer and found him
lying in drunken stupor. If the
large chestnut tree, the stump of
which only is now standing, could
voice its evidence it could tell Bro.
Brinton how we'll it sheltered Cecil
county's constabulary at that time.
Here,is the 1909 version of the
1886 tragedy:
''But here is pretentio1s resi-
dence that needs more than a pass.
ing notice as we journey on. 1t
will be just 25 years ago next
Decoration Day that an awful
was enacted there. 1t was
then the home of Charles Barnes,
who in unbalanced mind, and nerve
racked by intoxicants, picked up
one of his SONS and Drained him on
a cook stove, shot his brother.in,
law and sent a bullet through the
heart of another son. Mr.. Hind.
man was at that time constable,
and it fell to his unpleasant duty
to arrest Barnes. Arriving there
the scene was a terrible one. Barnes
had barricaded himselfin the attic,
and was letting the crowd that had
gathered know he was well armed.
From across the road behind that
chestnut tree, now a stump, con-
stant firing was kept up until the
windows of the front of the house
had been shot out, hoping it would
dislodge Barnes. Failing in this
Mr.. Hindman summoned courage
to go into the house and up to the
third floor. Finding the door lock.
ed he threw his weight upon it, the
door yielded and he was standing
in the presence of the man who had
committed the terrible crime, In
an instant he was made prisoner
and led away to Elkton Jail. No
jury judged his case, as it was be-
yond the power of man to cope
with, and for 25 years Barnes has
been dethroned of power of reason
and physical strength"
