Oeeamless Sleep.

Occasionally I have met people who
have insisted that they do not know
what it means to dream. To them
sleep comes like the pail Of death. en-
veloping them 50 completely az to en-
tirely extinguish the consciousness for
the time being. But, strangely enough.
I have found that these individuals do
not seem to appreciate this blessing
Of undisturbed repose. Instead. they
feel that In some way they are being
cheated out of something that belongs
to them. Like the Scotch plowboy,
they protest at never being able to
enjoy" a nights sleep. because their
head no sooner touches the pillow than

HOUSE SAVED THE
UNIFORM SYSTEM
This Action Results in Defeat
ing the Amendment of
Rep. Wood.
CARRIED By STORM "AYES"
YESTERDAY AFTERNOON THE
SENATE HAD ANOTHER SPASM
CARRYING BILLS OVER VETO
OF THE GOVERNOR.
Palladium Bureau,
INDIANAPOLIS, March 4.

The present uniform system of
school books was saved from the at
tack that has been made against it
when the house refused to accept an
amendment to the Wood bill This
bill provided that the school books
should be selected and adopted by the
state board of education as now, but
that the price limit on the series of
school books should be slightly in
creased in order that the board might
obtain better books in some instances.
Representative Escrbach offered an
amendment that in January of each
year during which school book adop-
tons were to be made the governor
should appoint commission to make
the adoptions. This would have &C.
complished the same purpose as was
intended by the Garrard bill, which has
been abandoned in the face of the
overwhelming opposition from all over
the state. 1t would have put the
schools in politics. the very thing that
the people do not want. When the
house took viva voce vote on a mo-
ton to table the amendment. there
was storm of ayes and only two
or three noes" The scheme was
Overwhelmingly defeated. Then an
amendment was adopted removing the
limit of the price that the board may
pay for the books. In that form the
for the schools and the people of the
state against the school book combine.
Had Another Spasm.
The senate had another spasm OF
passing bills over Governor Marshall's
veto late yesterday afternoon. First,
it passed the bill which gives convict
ed criminals the right to furnish bail
and remain at liberty while their ap-
peal is pending. This the governor
designated as the rich mans bill, be-
cause. he said. the rich man could fur
nish bail and remain out of prison,
while the poor man could not.
Then the senate passed the Ham,
mond court bill over the governors We
to, and while the vote was being taken
Senator Bland. whose Linton court bill
was vetoed by the governor, made a
bitter attack on the governor in a
speech. But neither of these bills
stand much show of getting through
the house. In fact, there is not the
f., slightest reason to expect that the
house will pass anything over the veto
of Governor Marshall-at least, not at
| this session.

Judging by the unusual interest
manifested by all classes of theater
patrons in the engagement of Grau-
stark for Thursday, March II, nearly
everyone in town must have read the

play is highly praised by the critics of
neighboring cities and the scenic pro-
duction is said to be the most elabor-
ate ever taken on tour.
"A Girl at the Helm"

this city is the managing director

1t is pretty generally known that this

HOLE IN THE GROUND SALVATION.

For long time one of the favorite things to worry
about in England has been "What shall we do when
natures supply of coal gives outa'
We think that is foolish because the trust has much
coal that doesn't possible that it be used
up But England feels the seriousness of the problem
today as we will feel it so years hence.
Whenever solution is proposed it gets great deal
of discussion Just the proposal of Sir William Ram
say has the center of the earth.
Sir William proposes to practically lmitless
sup,scf light heat and power by tapping the molten
semi molten interior of the earth.
The discussion has brought out interesting things
the general subject Among other things it appears
that governments have already made great and costly
experiments along this line.
The deepest hole bored into the earhs crust is said to
be the driven several years ago by the German govern
ment at place called Paruschowitz in Sesia when a
depth of 952 feet reached The bore is three feet
inches in diameter at the top decreasing gradually to two
feet six inches at the depth of mile at which it remains
for the rest of the distance
At La Chapele is bore of similar kind, and nearly
deep, constructed by the French for expert
mental purposes and another similar exists STAY

In each it the original Intention to carry the
bore much lower but the expense found be prob
tive when contrased with the prospective results That is
the worst of such works After certain depth the cost
increases by leaps and bounds and the time occupied
lengthens proportionately
Charles Parsons of turbine fame, who made special
study of the question, estimates that to drill hole 10
miles deep into the earths crust would cost at least
$25,00O,000 and would require so years.
The estimate as to money may be correct but-stupend-
