Lafayette, IND, April 1.-Realiz-

Miss Estella Reynolds Returns.

Miss Stella Reynolds is home from
her season in grand opera. She has
been with the Chicago Grand Opera
Company the past winter, and last
week finished the season at Wash
ington. having been in New York,
Philadelphia and other OF the larger
eastern cities. The company reach

is glad to know of her success in
her chosen line of work. She has a
voice of unusual fullness, and the
training she has taken has added
much to the natural value of her
voice. She is given solo work in the
company she is with, and has attain

Roosevelt Through Plymouth.

When Theodore Roosevelt went
through Plymouth Wednesday at
about noon, many of our citizens
were eating their dinner, or about to
do so. They felt no unusual sensa-
ton, and it is likely that Mr.. Roose-
welt was himself unconscious of the
number of warm supporters he had
In Plymouth. In days gone by the
train on which a great man such as
he is, was travelling, would have pro-
ceeded by slow stages through the
country, and friends would have
gathered along the line to see him
for a moment. The time in which
we live, and the speed of the hour,
has changed all that, and at sixty
miles an hour the train goes dashing
through, the occupants of the cars
not realizing where they are, only
wishing to reach their destination
as soon as possible. Fast age we
live In, sure.

Matthew Family Just In Time.

1t is not to be supposed that the
Matthew family moving to Gary had
anything to do with the trouble
there. but from accounts it would
seem they were just in time to get
the benefit. The Little Calumet has
risen from a modest stream, till it is
a mighty expanse of water two miles
wide. Many homes in Gary are
surrounded by the water, moved from
their foundations, and some foated
away. On either side Of Broadway,
the main street of Gary, the waters
are tapping at the raised roadway
for over a mile. The foundation of
the road is a fine lake sand and it
may be irreparably ruined. 1t cost
$4,000 last year.
Portions of the Great Williams
dixie on the Kankakee. near Ham
mond, were torn out by the ice JAM
and fifteen feet of water inundated
the country. The loss will reach
$250,000. All down the country to
the Mississippi the waters are near
the record marks, and much dam
age Is being done.
The Matthew family were in the
submerged district when Yellow
river was in food a few years ago,
and of course know how to do in
this event, having had experience.

DR.. Wiley Resigns.

Damned with faint praise from the
nation s chief executive, hampered
by a reactionary departmental chief
who has long since outlived his use

lawyer of the night school variety
who, as a representative of the vi
cious interests, was able to nullify
or render abortive efforts made in
the interest of public health, DIR.
Wiley has given up the unequal
fight and handed In his resignation.
Thus retires from the government
service one of the most useful Off
Gals this country has ever had. An
implacable foe of fraud and deceit,
DR.. Wiley has for years stood be-
tween a more or less helpless public
and the vested interests that have
developed to a science the business
of adulterating foods, sophisticating
drugs-thus in many ways threaten
ing the public health. On every de-
batable question regarding the
wholesomeness of foodstuffs, DR..
Wiley was consistently on the side
of the people; his superior officers
have been just as persistently on the
side of those who have made their
millions by substituting cheap and
often poisonous drugs for more ex-
pensive but wholesome foods. As
sailed from without by some of the
most powerful, vicious and corrupt
of organizations, he was also antago-
nized from within by the political
henchmen of the same organizations.
To DIR. Wiley more than to any
other one man, says The Journal of
the American Medical Association,
the public owes the Food and Drug
Act and to DIR. Wiley it also owes
whatever good has been accomplish
ed by that act. 1t is to be hoped
that his forced retirement will re-

Dusty Roads.

W. c. Whitsel of Lafayette. was
here Thursday night trying to inter
est the City Council in the subject
of preparation called Calcium
Chloride. which is chemical salt
and is applied in a dry granular
form. When the weather is very
dry the surface should be dampened
first. 1t is claimed that this prep
aration draws moisture from the at
mosphere. so keeping the surface
damp enough to hold the dust.
1t is said to have no foul odor
that it is a disinfectant. and destroys
disease germs. 1t is economical. acts
as a road binder, and adds TO the
life of road. 1t is clean. does not
run and collect In pools. and rain
or moist nights do not hurt it. 1t is
rot greasy. and will not track into
the house. or soil clothing. Does moi
injure rubber tires, nor painted sur.
faces. Does not clog In sewers. anG
is not injurious to animal life. but
will kill weeds and prevent theil
growth.
1t is white. will keep indefinitely
and comes in sealed drums of 40(
pound packages. 1t can be applied
with a shovel. or can be used in {
wheeled seeder such as farmers us,
to SOW grain. 1t takes about on,
and a half pounds to the squar,
yard, the first application, and SHOULD
be followed in about six weeks Will
another which is usually sufficient fol
la season. It costs about a cent
pound.
This preparation is said to pos
sess several advantages over oil sucl
as Is used In many places. TIL
claims are good. and it would be
good thing if all is as stated. 1
the gentleman could bring a few
hundred pounds here and prove it
worth by actual demonstration, tn
council would be in a position t.
know its merits by actual observa
ton.

The Large Crowd Expected In the

Beautiful Displays.

1lNmOuIn uercHdutS are paying
more than the usual attention to
window decorating the past year.
During holiday time there was a
decided advance along this line,
and the State Bank has undertaken
the work of special decorations for
special days. making instruction In
historical events and commemora-
ton of great men a leading factor.
Now that Es ster is coming there Is
activity In Il IS direction. We ncn-
toned the La Der windows last week,
and it is worh while to walk down
to Laporte stiset, few doors east
of the new postoffice, and see the
window in the Reynolds Drug Store.
William Reiter is the artist there,
and with the lavender and white, the
Easter lilies, all bLpding in har-
monious combination. makes pleas
ing picture. The eye IF the behold
er is delighted, and he \will be sure
to stop and look twice 1t the pleas
ing effect produced.
Bail & Co. have two fine windows.
The south window is the best be-
cause it shows the mems goods, a
man is writing. Anyway it is a
beautiful show, and you miss a pleas
ing thing if you fail to walk up and
see it. 1t is delicate and tasty, and
with the simple background and the
beautiful columns of flowers the
wearing apparel for men is shown
off in a fine setting. On the north
side of the entrance is seen the
ladies goods, and of course with
ribbons of various tints it is possible
to make a most attractive showing
provided always you have taste and
tact to blend and harmonic. In
this case you can only get the effect
by seeing. Words cannot give an
adequate conception, so walk up past
Ball & Co. s store and see what they
show.
Lott Losey has fixed up a very
pretty window with jewelry and
fancy goods, and Mr.. Rowe shows q
profusion of goods In his line.
The Bee Hive has something ii
