ures In IN. second session he intro
duCed eighteen pension bills and three
, measures of wider interest. one To
amend tho constitution 81 a. Ia provide
for an income tax. one TO repeal the
duties on meats and one a resolution of
inquiry relative To the prosecution of
the beef trust. Between the adjourn
ment Of Mr. FoELKER's second ssssi,' n
and he opening of his third the political
powers Of his home district decreed
that he should not bs renominatsd, and

Record for the present session he will
have TO his credit several measures
other than private pension bills He

EXPECT A DIVIDEND
Local Lodge of Moose Hope to
Clear Little Off the
Carnival.
WEATHER HURT BUSINESS.


Those in charge of the finances of
the carnival given under the auspices
Of the local lodge of Moose believe that
a dividend will be declared in favor Of
the local lodge after all expenses have
been paid. However, it will not be
large as the weather last week and the
distance to the carnival grounds pre-
vented large attendance, except on one
or two evenings when the weather was
somewhat warm.
The carnival company went to Bluff
ton, where it opens a weeks stand to-
day. There will be several changes as
the animal show, the educated horse
and Buckslsin Ben's show all left to
join another carnival which is now in
Michigan. The shows which left are
said to have been the best the company
had.

palladium Specially


Cambridge City, Ind, June 6.-Jesse
Jacoby, aged &c, met death here in a
horrible manner sometime early Sun
day morning evidently while attempt
ing to board Lake Erie and Western
freight train for his home in Corners
vile. His mangled body was discover
ed shortly after daylight by rail-
road trackwalker and Coroner Bran
camp was summoned at once.
Jacoby had been in Cambridge City
for several days and on Friday was
arrested for being drunk. On Satur-
day morning, however, he was told
to get out Of town, but proceeded to
drink a great deal first. Late in the
evening he was seen to set out for the
railroad crossing at North Front
street and it is believed that he fell
under the wheels while trying to clam
Der aboard the 1925 south-bound
freight. His face and body were
crushed beyond recognition, identifi-
cation being possible by means of tat
too marks.
Jacoby had been accustomed to
leaving his home in Connersville ever
since that city outvoted the saloons.
and his parents state that he would
be gone for several days at a time on
these occasions. He is survived by
two brothers, besides his father and
mother.

First Week in June at an End
and the Crop is a Month
Behind, Making the Flowing
Period Late.
GROUND STILL COLD
Is COMPLAINT MADE
Should the Crop be a Failure
or There Only be Half a
Crop, Hardship on Farmers
Would be Great.

That the corn crop of Wayne coun-
ty and vicinity has been SO hindered
by untoward weather as to worry the
farmers and stockmen of this section
is an undisputed fact, and many con-
slider the situation warrants grave
fears. The first week in June is at
an end and still the best of the corn
throughout the county is month be-
hind, which throws corn-plowing up in
to harvest time, after the ordinary
spring rains which are usually so ben
eficial.
One farmer, who has lived in this
county for seventy years. said Satur-
day that the corn is smaller and that
blowing has been needed less up to
this time than in any year he can re-
call. In spite of the warm weather
earlier in the year. he declares the
Iground is still cold and apparently
I has not felt the enervating effect OF
the ordinary spring.
Should the corn crop in Wayne
county prove a failure. or only half a
crop, the effect upon the farmers
would be worse than the failure of all
the other crops, and real hardship
would be wrought. According to ex
perts, there is still much to fear If the
weather is not exactly propitious from
now until the end of July.

HENRY cAvENDIsH.

A Reeiuse, He Lived Far From the
Maddins Crowd.
Henry Cavendish. the famous natural
philosopher and chemist, was reciuse
who astonished England.
A son of Lord Charles Cavendish
and a nephew Of the third Duke Of
Devonshire, possessed Of enormous
wealth, the subject of universal ad-
miration because Of his scientific at
tainments. he preferred the solitude
OF his study and the company Of his
books to the pleasures society could
offer him.
For many years he lived at Hamp-
stead in large. roomy house. attended
by number OF female servants. who.
however. were strictly enjoined to keep
out of his sight. IL domestic by the
merest chance came into the presence
Of Cavendish she was instantly dis
missed.
Every morning the philosopher would
leave a note on the hall table naming
what he wanted for dinner. No one
saw him place the note there; but, ac-
customed to the strange customs OF
the establishment, the meal would be
prepared. and only the remains Of the
repast signifed the presence OF the
master Of the house
When Cavendish died In 1910 he left
behind him nearly 4 million pounds
sterling. besides . lasting reputation -

Experience OF Man Who Was Chain.
ed to 4 Wheeibarrow.
In writing Of the Schluesselburg

Soskice tells of a prisoner who was
chained to wheelbarrow:
"Schedrin had been condemned to
hard labor in the convict mines of ST.
IBERIA and for an attempt to escape
from there had been sentenced to be
chained to heavy wheelbarrow.
When the order came for his transfer
from Siberia to st. Petersburg no con-
veyance could be found large enough
to contain him, the wheelbarrow and
the convoy Of gendarmes. Yet, as the

afraid to leave it behind. 1t was there

convoy in one cart and the wheelbar-

months. day and night. Schedrin and
the gendarmes galloped through ST.
IBERIA upon a troika "a three horsed

hind them upon which the wheelbar-
row reposed, causing the deepest
amazement among the peasants In the
villages through which they passed.
Upon the arrival of the prisoner in SIS.

VEHICLE ORDINANCE UP.


Council will have a busy time. of it
this evening with the argument and
wrangling that are both to occur when
the vehicle bill and the vetoed sane
Fourth" ordinance comes up for final
settlement. These measures have met
with considerable opposition in pre-
vious meetings and tonight it is ex-
pected that a vote will end the discus
sion on both of them
Two weeks ago the vehicle tax ord
nance was amended in such a way as
to reduce the fees in nearly every
clause by from 20 to 80 per cent. The
bill was then referred back to commit
tee and will be reported out again this
evening
The ordinance requiring all second
hand dealers to furnish the police with
a description of all articles received by
them each day will also come up. Ma
yor Zimmerman is heartily in favor OF
this measure, as it not only protects
the public, but aids the police in the
apprehension of stolen goods. The
matter of improving North Fifth street
will be considered this evening.

ROSES WERE STOLEN

June as the month of roses was TAX
en- too literally by some visitors to the
Glen yesterday and in police court this
morning four Bulgarians with impos-
sible names and two Richmond young
men were each assessed 81 and costs
for their careless indulgence of their
aesthetic tastes. Superintendent Ed
ward Hollarn CHANGED to be near when
the gentlemen were plucking bouton-
ierres de peony for personal adornment
and insisted upon a ride to the city
hall. Each in his own manner and in
a variety of language insisted that this
was free country, but the mayor held
otherwise. The fines were paid. The
Bulgarians. classed under the compre-
hensive heading of 'dagoes" are en-
ployed by the railroad.
