cry county farmers and stock men are
facing feed famine" for stock. and
unless the weather moderates shortly
and grass comes. they win be In a bad
predicament. The past year corn was
scarce. and common fodder was prac-

are now feeding considerable clover and
timothy hay instead of fodder. which is
something unusual in this county. and
with another month of winter all feed
will have bean used. Considerable corn
Is being shipped in here. and that of

ILLUMINATION Of
NIAGARA FALLS
By New York State and Province
Of 0ntario---Plan Tested
Successfully.

Albany, N. Y, March 3.-The first
step toward acrrying out the project for
the permanent illumination at night of
Niagara Fails at the joint expense of
of Ontario will be taken tomorrow whe
Senator Gittins, of Niagara Falls. will
present a bill to the Legislature to make
the plan effective. The measure calls
for an appropriation Of $4,000 for the
construction of a power plant and $500
for its maintenance for one year. The
money however. will not be available
until Ontario provides equal appropria-
tions for the subject.
According to Senator Gittins, the
necessary cooperation on the part of
Canadian authorities will be forthcom-
ing. He has been carrying on negotia-
tions with members of the Provincial
Parliament, AMI Evan e. Frasier has pre-
pared a bill carrying similar appropria-
lions. which will be presented soon to
the Canadian lawmakers.
The joint appropriation of 100000. Sen
ator Gittins says will provide an ample
power plant. while the 5000 year
will support 1t. The cooperation Of New
York and Ontario Is expected to obviate
all difficulties which hitherto have balk-
ed efforts to carry out such plan.
The experimental illumination of the
falls about five years ago. which was
made possible by the contributions OF
public spirited citizens. was such a sue
cess, Senator Gittins points out that he
believes his project to make the light

REFUSES TO DODGE JURY.
Mineola N. Y, March 4.-CoI.
Roosevelt came here this morning from
Oyster Bay in response to a summons
for jury duty. Though he had been
assured in advance by Judge Schulze
that he would be exempted from serv-
ice because of his military service, Col.
Roosevelt sprung a surprise on the
crowd that was lined up in and around
the court house to greet himwhen he
calmnly accepted the summons to jury
duty without an attempt to evade
service.
He qualified as a member of the pam
ell of petit Jurors, and only accepted a
reprieve from service until Wednesday
which was proffered him by Supreme
Court Justice Putnam. of Brooklyn,
who was sitting here today.
Are you really going to serve on the
jury?" asked several newspaper men
as the Colonel was leaving the court
room.
II am on the jury" replied Mr..
Roosevelt. II conceive 1t to be a mans
duty to serve when he is called. I
shall be at the Outlook offices tomor-
row to keep an appointment. After
that shall make this jury service my
chief consideration. and readjust my
other arrangements to accord with It,"
There are about fifty cases on the
calendar which will be presented to
the jury. most of which are civil ac-
tions against the Long Island railroad.
Just before Col. Roosevelt returned
to Oyster Bay he consented to talk Of
the fragment Of a letter given out in
Washington yesterday, in which he IL
quoted as having positively declared
that he would not be a candidate for
the Presidency in 1912.
Before 1 reply to this matter In de-
tail shall insist that the letter he
made public In full. and the name Of
the person to whom 1t is addressed be
given OUT" he said.
Meantime I have but to say that
any man dishonest enough to publish
a private letter, especially without CIV
ing his name. Is dishonOrahle enough
to publish a portion Of 1t apart from
the context.
Everybody with whom I have been
in communication knows that I have
always been consistent in my course;
that I have never sought nomination.
but that l have never placed myself in
q position where l could not accept
the nomination If the party wanted
me-"
As a juror. Col. Roosevelt will be
paid IS a day and his mileage from
Oyster Bay. He seemed to be, delight
ed at the prospect. and said that he
WAS not worried about the Presiden-
tial campaign. Others. he said. were
taking care Of that.

VIEW LOCAL MARKET
Muncie Committee Was in
the City Tuesday.

Suggestions of local city officials as
to the ideal public market were secur-
ed Tuesday by president ]. l.. Simous
of the Muncie board of works, w. B.
Maker, a member of the board, and L.
r. Brandt, member of the Muncie
council committee on markets. The in
vestigating party met the Richmond
officials at the city hall, Mayor Zim-
herman acting as spokesman.
In brief he declared the ideal mar
ket in his opinion was one which was
centrally located in a town of the size
of Richmond. He believed the local
market house would be ideal if it COW
cred the entire market square between
Fifth and Sixth on South A, and was
large enough to have two isles with
stalls on either side An indoor mar
ket is much better than an open air
one because of the better sanitary con-
ditions. he said.
The local market house was inspect
ed by the Muncie committee, follow
ing which 1t was shown through No. 2

take especial pride in showing of.

DEWEY BELLHEIMER

Young Dewey Bellheimer, who has
father, mother, two step-fathers, and
a step-mother living, will celebrate
his thirteenth birthday Thursday at
Alfred Dingley's residence east of the
city, the first real home the lad has
ever known.
His mother and father separated
shortly after Dewey's birth, both mar
rying second time within a few
years. Father Bellheimer again tired
of married life. He is now living in
Richmond. Mother Bellheimer added
two more names to her list after she
separated from BelIheimer, and is now
living in Muncie with her third hus-
band, who refuses to keep Dewey, as
he has enough children of his own"
When Mr.. Dingley heard of this
peculiar situation, he took the boy in
to his home. Young Dewey now liz

himself immensely. and has for the

A BOOSI-FOR !n'SPuDS''
Many Bushels of Potatoes
Have Been Frozen.

AS result of the recent cold wave
an increase in the price of potatoes
is expected. The supply of potatoes
has been greatly reduced in the last
week and it is believed that nothing
can prevent the boost in price but a
decided slump in the demand for this
comodity.
Several hundred bushels of "spuds''
have frozen during the cold weather.
Farmers who have been holding their
potatoes for the market now have few
If any good potatoes.
The failure of potato shippers to
place stoves in the cars shipped to
Richmond and other points has re-
suited in the receipt of several car
loads of frozen potatoes in the rail-
road yards. Dealers state that the
potatoes will have to be thrown into
the dump as they are good for moth
ing. *: ns.

QUARANTINE BAN IS
TO LIFT THURSDAY
City Dogs Will Celebrate, but
County Dogs Are Not
So Fortunate.

Tomorrow morning all the little city
dogs will 60 out OF the edge of town
after having their muzzles OFF for the
first time in a month and bark at the
poor country CANNES who will still
be adorned with wire or leather bands
over their mouths. At midnight to,
limits of Richmond will be lifted, but
dogs in the country districts of Wayne
Township must wear mUzzles or be
confined for month yet.
DR.. King, county health officer, stat
ed today that, since his original order
required sixty days quarantine and
the situation is still serious, he can
see no cause for resembling his ruling
simply for the reason that the city or
der expires today, and will demand
that dogs outside the city limits re-
main muzzled or penned up for a
month longer. The county health guar
dian asserts that many of the worst
cases of rabies do not develop for near
ly forty or more days after the victim
10 OItICu, dAu luCIClOlS 10 0tIlI
chance for dogs going mad.
DR.. Davis says, however, that prac-
tically all the danger is past, for the
city officials have located every animal
that was bitten, and there is but little
chance of a new case arising. Admit
ting that many cases develop after the
expiration of thirty days, the city ex-
pert maintains that it is not worth
while to follow up these exceptional
cases. and that he considers the city
practically out of danger. Summing up
the situation, DR.. Davis asserts 1.-The
city has had this quarantine to teach
the people how to handle mad dog
scare, and they should be enough in
terested in themselves to keep their
dogs muzzled voluntarily for some
time yet"
