Mother Of Vice Presidents.

Discussing the candidacy of Fair
banks, one of our esteemed contempo.
rarles jocularly referred to Indiana as
"the mother Of vice presidents" The
claim is unfounded, for this distinc.
ton belongs to New York Our state
has been the home of no less than ten
vice presidents: Aaron Burr, George
Clinton, Daniel ID. Tompkins, Martin
Van Buren, Millard Fillmore, William
A. Wheeler, Chester A. Arthur, Levi
p. Morton, Theodore Roosevelt and
James 5. Sherman. What is more,
four Of them were presidents later
Van Buren by election, Fillmore and
Arthur to All accidental vacancies and
Roosevelt TO f1ll vacancy and also
by election. But Indiana can claim
only four vice Schuyler
Colfax, Thomas A. Hendricks, Charles
w. Fairbanks and Thomas X. Mar
shall. In the running mate rivalry,
however, Indiana leads New York in
one respect. Since the Civil war she
has furnished three unsuccessful nom
inees for vice president--Hendrick
in 1915, William H. English in 1880
and John w. Kern in 1908--as against
New York's two-Whitelaw Reid in
1892 and Sherman (who died before
the close of the campaign) in 1912

Dream Reveals HidIna Place.

William He'll Of Brickerville, Pa, as
serts that a dream revealed to him
the hiding place OF can of gold. the
property Of John Belleman, his prede-
cessor on the farm. Belleman did not
believe in banks, and secreted his
money. He died suddenly and did not
reveal even TO his wife where he had
II secreted. Heil's story Is that he
had dream that he was digging for
Belleman's money In the haymow Of
the barn. He was about to give up
the task when the spirit of Belleman
appeared and commanded him to dig
on. The next morning he went to the
haymow, dug under the hay and found
q tin box. He took 1t to the home
of Mrs. Belleman, who counted the
contents, $4,000 In gold, and He'll was
handsomely rewarded.

Cubic Stone.

To keep in touch with the news OF
the world, which Is now bringing forth
strange array of words from all the
corners of the earth one must needs
have the knowledge of a Mezzofanti or
be the possessor of polyglot diction-
airy. The war between the Turks and
Arabians has released a number of
words, some of which, like the Ara
bian terms "alkall," algebra" "as-
trology," ETC., may in time be adopted
into our language. Here is the Arabic
word "kaab," ''the cubic stone;" this
is the stone which, according to Mo.
hammedan tradition, was brought by
Adam from Paradise and became black
through the sins of men. The stone is
at Medina. II is covered by veil,
which is raised by the pilgrims who
come from great distances to kiss Il.
II has been called, irreverently, the
blarney stone of Mohammed. At the
side of the tomb of Mohammed Is a
tomb awaiting Jesus, whom the Mus
sulmans regard as one of their proph.

Retalninn the Sword.

The Turks allowed General Town
shend to retain his sword-the same
honor which the Russians paid to Sir
William Fenwick Williams when he
was compelled to surrender at Kars.
The custom is not uncommon in mod
ern history. When Lord Methuen was
captured by Deiarey, his sword was
given back to him and he was re-
leased. The Spanish Admiral Ceryera,
who surrendered with no boots and
very few clothes on, had managed to
bring his sword on board Capt. Bob
Evans ship. and he was allowed to
carry 1t to cabin that had been al
lotted to him. General Stoessei at
Port Arthur kept his sword. and at Ap-
pomattox Court House General Grant
allowed General Lee to retain his
weapon. When Napoleon III. surren-
dered at Sedan. Bismarck taunted him
with the question, But tell me, your
majesty, whose sword Is this? Is IL
the sword Of France or your own
sword2"

This variety is n very valuable
grass to SOW on wet and moist lands,

otherwise would grow and be of com

grow in wet places even where the
cattle have trampled it down
In time it forms a good sod and is

with the name is to be tried on the

bureau will probably take hold of the
