ton of Attorney General Honan in
thwarting his fight on saloonkeepers in
that city who were violating the law,
reused members of the committee on
Judiciary A Of the house last night, and
Representative Fleming demanded an
apology from the lawyer.
Mr.. Matthew asserted that he had re-
viewed the wet" and dry" war in
Gary at the request of Chairman Storen
of the committee; that he had told
the truth and that he did not intend
to reflect in any manner upon Mr.. Ho-
nan. He failed to make an apology,
but the. incident was closed with his
explanation.
Mr.. Matthew was discussing the Car
ter bill, which would validate the H.
censes of number of Gary saloon
keepers who had failed to pay license
fees within the time limit fixed by the
Proctor law. Mr. Matthew. counse
for the Good Citizens LEAGUE of Gary

Tells Of Inv Violations.

The Gary lawyer asserted that there
were 1913 saloonkeepers in Gary who
are violating the law. He said that
nearly all of the saloons included in
his indictment are brewery-owned sa-
looms, despite the prohibition of the
Proctor law in that respect. He de-
clsred he had seen checks signed by
the officers of breweries on file in the
office OF the county auditor, and that
these checks were in payment for Ii
censes.
Mr.. Matthew said he had succeeded
in getting nine sa1oonkeepers fined to
the amount of $4,000. after having OBJ
tanned an appointment as special prose-
cutting attorney. but then had been
baked by the appearance of the Lake
county prosecutor in court with the
request that the cases be dropped
When Attorney General Honan took Of
fee, he said, Mr.. Honan had refused to
appoint him again and he had been
forced to drop the cases.

their aid and countenance to policy
OF municipal uplift, not only morally
and materially, but also from a sani-
tary point of view, A commission has
been appointed to take up the work
of improving Clinton st. and report
to the city Council their opinion as to
the most feasible plan. And in the
mean time without moments delay,
there is work all can do, and that is,
a general cleaning up of streets, alleys
and lanes. The city papers of viii

this step and why not do SO in Della

MAKES THE TURTLE HIS PREY
new Jersey Man Has Remarkable Sue
cess In His Pursuit Of the Sue
eulent Reptile.

One Of the oldest and most sue
tessful of hunters of the toothsome
and popular snapper" or logger
head, the big and vicious turtle that
graces the soup kettle so fittingly, is
Henry Dufield of this place. Duff
field, who is a Civil war veteran,
seems to have been born with an in
stinct for discovering the aggressive
denizen of the mud. Already this
season he has landed two big prizes,
one weighing IL and the other more
than IS pounds.
Duffield's method Of capture ia
like that employed by most Of the
hunters, but lie has more success than
most Of them. At this season Of the
year the "snappers" are imbedded
deep in the mud of the marshes and
along creeks, where they have hiber-
mated all winter. In the early spring
they leave their winter QUARTERS; COM
ing out fat, most of them. Tie fe-
male seeks a sand bank, where she
digs a hole and deposits her eggs,
emetimes as many as two dozen.
They are white, nearly round, and as
large ASA small English walnut.
After carefully covering them she
leaves them, and the heat Of the
sun matches them out late in the
summer. Dufieids method in To-
eating the snapper" is to sound the
muddy places with a prod about five
feet in length, and he can tell in an
instant when he strikes. The real
work comes when he raises the alert
and pugnacious prize out Of the mud.
At present he has about fifty turtles
in his cellar, ranging in size from
five pounds up. At night a stranger
would think the house haunted, as
they get to fighting and falling over
each other.-Cedarville IN. ~ Dis

TOO cLEANLY FOR COMFORT.

The neatness of the New England

munity is rigidly insisted on. Damage
to school property thefts of hooks, lunch
es, etc, is now practically unknown. The
relations between students and teachers
Is cordial, characterized by mutual te-
spect and urbanity.
Cases of corporal punishment and sus-
pension are extremely rare, while good
order and industry among the students
decidedly the rule. Without any vestge
OF caste class, the atmosphere of the
school is very democratic, there being
no fraternitcs or sororities, clques or
circles in the social life. The class
honors are universally decided purely on
questions of personal merit and work.
A systematic and thorough study is
made of the English language. The stu
dents are taught to use it correctly in
writing and in speech. An enthusiastic
study is made of many of the. master
pieces of English and American writers.
Original research in library newspapers,
current history and literature is en-
oouraged and expected of the students
by this department. Latin is studied
mostly as ii is related to English and
the etymology derivations. etc. of the
Latin English words are carefully noted,
while the structure of the sentence, the
choice of words, position in the sentence,
position of phrases. clauses and so on
are HUItt Ill lHt lLdtlil Text, anu Cdi c
fully rendered in idiomatic English.
The study of Latin is thus made the
best possible vehicle for the study of
English. and so 1t is with the study
Of French and German. Literal transla-
tions are insisted on, and then the text
is rendered into an elegant select ver-
biage as the student and teacher have
at their command. History is supple-
mented by outside research work and IL
let,. tod Nv nd
tures.
In teaching the sciences the inductive
method is followed as far as possible.
Laboratory work and carefully conduct
ed experiments. with preparation of notes
is expected Of all the students. The work
is made practical by observing the ma
tural phenomena and scientific devices
that promote our daily comfort, as the
telephone, the electric lighting, the hea&-
ing apparatus of the school and home,
water supply, etc. Practical problems
of hygiene with modern discoveries in
sanitation. medicine, eugenics, physiology,
are daily discussed and explained in the
class room.
The outputl,of the domestic science and
manual training departments has been
before the public SO. often that little on
the subject need be said. Several lathes
were added to the boys department dur
ing last year and the workshop was daily
the scene of activity and practical ach-
ievement while the work in the domes-
tic arts and in the promotion of home
loving and home-creating activities was
beyond praise, ranking the school with
Montevallo in this respect and sur
passed probably by no school in Ala
bama.
No department in the school does more
satisfactory work than the business de-
partment, in fact, it has become an es-
sential part of the institution. There are
eight new typewriters, four of which
were rented and paid for by the pupils.
Practice is given in office methods. busi-
ness devices, etc, and plans are formed
to give the students the benefit of ac-
