Smith Suit.
DIFFERENCE OF OPINION
ATTORNEYS DISAGREE As TO
PROVISION AND INTENT. OF
STATUTES RELATIVE TO SUCH
PROCEEDINGS.

Several interesting points Of Law will
be presented when the case Of the
Earlham Cemetery association against
Margaret Smith ct al, comes up for
trial in circuit court. The associg-
ton has brought condemnation pro-
ceedings to obtain possession Of q fiji
~ acre farm owned by the plaintiffs
Attorneys differ as to the provisions
and intent of the statutes relative to
such proceedings.
The assertion is made n special pro-
vision enables cemetery associations tn
obtain what land they may need for
burial purposes. The counsel for the
defendants claim the land Il is pro-
posed to secure is not needed Ii Il
alleged the association has an option
on or has secured large section OF
the Bull farm directly south of the
present site of the cemetery and does
not need any additional land across
Clear Creek
Claim Advanced.
The claim is advanced that the cem-
etery association Is private In its M
ture and cannot be considered in the
same light as public service corpora
ton. II Is charged the association
withholds the right to sell OTIS for bu--
ial purposes. il IL cares to and this is
not in accord with the laws OF public
service corporations. Counsel for the
association claims II does not know OF
any instance of that kind and that the
right Of eminent domain is bestowed
upon a cemetery organization.
Both sides of the contention clairl
to have had the land appraised in ad-
vance. The cemetery organization 5
attorneys say they have endeavored to
ascertain the value Of the farm and
their appraisers have placed 1t At
$4,000. The attorney for the defense
says other men have appraised II at
$4,000. He holds the farm for $15.-
600. After the court takes up the
matter the independent appraisementz
will be worthless a. the one that will
stand will be made by court ap-
pointees.

How Rats PurIOIn Eqqs.

Did you ever witness the theft OF

II saw the act performed only the
other day and most interesting spec
tacle 1t was. A friend OF mine who runs
commission house invited me to the
matinee which took place In the base
ment OF his establishment. We had re-
served seats behind some boxes of pro-
duce and kept very still. After a short
wait a huge rodent, gray and corpu-
lent, emerged from a crate of eggs
pushing one he had purloined along
the floor. Presently a smaller rat
Joined him, whereupon No. turned
over fiat on his back and, gathering
the egg in his four paws. clasped It az
lovingly as child does a stick OF
candy. At this point the second rat
got busy and, catching the end OF the
big ones tail In its mouth, began drag
ging him and the hen fruit toward a
nearby hole, into which the loot was
triumphantly rolled. IL certainly was
q clever piece OF larceny silently and
expcdltiously executed, and my friend
told me that for months the disappear
ance OF his eggs had been d mystery.
Not until a score Of crates had been
robbed had he been able to locate the
thieves"

II is promised that the census OF

data than those relating to the In
crease Of the average length OF life, to
the decreasing fatality OF diseases and
TO generally improved mortality con-
ditions In this country. Authorities on
these subjects are urging that the
greatest care be devoted thereto. They
beliey:
That Americans are now living long
err than any other people In the world.
That disease is better controlled
here than anywhere else.
That sanitary conditions are better
on an average, than In any other
country
That the tendency to increasing the
span OF life is going TO be continued
for many years 20 come, as result
OF the pure food and drug laws. the
enforcement of effective quarantine
laws, the exclusion OF immigrants sf-
ficted with disease aud for other rea-
sons.
The beginning of the most effective
work In the direction has been made
In recent years, and the census OF 1910

benefits OF this movement. II Is there
