STRASBURG CELEBRATES.
Large Crowd Attends Speaking and
Racing-Linton Wins Ball Game
Day Ends With Big Fight.

All those whe were willing to brave
the muddy roads to Strasburg spent
the day there and had plenty of ex-
citement to repay them for their cf-
forts. The morning was devoted to
the usual Fourth Of July exercises
and the address by Attorney Clemens
Kelsch, who gave the audience an in
teresting and instr active talk on the
nations natal day and what it stands
for.
! Those cars from Linton who made
the trip in the forenoon had little or
no trouble getting through, but in the
afternoon it was different. Every
car made the bad spots worse and by
afternoon the cars were piling Up four
and five in mud-hole. The return
trip was even worse. At one mud
hole the writer counted nine cars in
the bunch and very few succeeded in
making the return trip without stick
ing in the mud at least once
After dinner the ball game be-
tween Linton and Strasburg was
called and, of course, Linton took the
long end of the score. However, the
game proved to be thriller for q
while. During the first three innings
there was not a man on either side
saw first base. listed, for Stras.
burg, and Puder for Linton, were the
opposing mound-artists. In the
fourth inning Vincent Shier drew 6
walk. He was the first man to SCI
first base. Suman was next up anc
drove out smashing single, Shiel
going to third. There was no score
however. In the next inning Baum
gartner was on second and the mar
at bat hit high infeld fly. Erickson
muffed it and Baumgartner hat
scored. The way the game was going
it looked for while like Strasburt
had it their way. 1t didn't last long
however. The Lintonites finally go
going and when the ninth inning wa
over Linton had six runs and Stras
burg their original one
The only feature which married tn
day was the vast quantity of booz
dispensed and the resulting free-for
all fights that caused many to leav
for home with feeling of disgust
and some with worse feeling thai
that. 1t was impossible to deter
mine just how the original fight start
ed, but it appears that just before tn
ball game ended some boy bought
\ bottle of beer and refused to pay 70
\ it. Trouble commenced, and 500
many bystanders had been handle

The blind-pigging in Strasbur
during the celebration was open an
J notorious and many Of the Strasbur
people themselves informed the write
that they would gladly see the illegs
business done away with. Of coura

GILL. McGlII, Gillespie.

The name of Gill is probably older
than that of McGill as the prefix Mac
signifies "son Of" and the name would
therefore IN olden times be borne by
one whose father was GILL 1t is
extremely doubtful If there is any
connection at all between the above
nalnes and that of Gillespie. In Gaelic
this name is Gillcasbuig, translated in
English by Archibald. For example,
the earl Of Argyll, who was famous
in the wars of the seventeenth cen.
tury, was known as Gillespie Grumach,
or ARCHIBALD the Grim"

CTS of gooAs brought into fiae eouptry by such e metMod tO escape tho duty which Is 2ntended for aii.
 The case ceutsred around the im- portation of Is cases of dental in- strumenta, there being Q difference between the invoices which were mailed with the goods and the state
 nent which was sent to the importer. While this appeared to bs a plain at- tempt to evade the provisions of the law, it was the contention of the im- porter that the law applied only to goods which went through the custom house and he was unwilling to see it any other way until 1t had been tried out before the courts.
 The facts in the case show that if was an attempt to evade the law, and this was only a bluff when 1t was carried into the courts, for in such cases where the attempt to bring goods into the court falsely valued the law provides for forfeiture. There are many attempts made to circurn-
 vent the law, and not a few of them
 succeed, but they are scarce indeed
 where the pretext Is 50 slight as il was in this instance.

Indigestion May Be
 Due 10 Constipation
of Important Function May Seriously Impair
 The Health

There are many people who believe they suffer from indigestion when their discomfort really is due to constipated condition.
 Bloat, with its attendant mental de- pression, sick-headache, the belching of sour stomach gases, etc, are rre- quently due to inaction of the bowels Relieve the congestion and the trou- ble usually disappears The use CT cathartics and purgatives should be avoided, however; these shock the system unnecessarily and. at best, their effect is but temporary. A mild laxative is far preferable.
 The compound of simple laxative herbs known as pr. Caldwelfs Syrup Pepsin and sold in drug stores fer fifty cents a bottle, is highly recom- mended. MT. Bent. Bassin, 360 Maci- son St. Gary. Ind. thinks Dr. Celd- wells Syrup Pepsin a wonderful med icine; for four years he had a severe case of indigestion and constipation before trying pr. Caldwelfs Syrup Pepsin, which he is glad to recom- mend to all who suffer with stomach and bowel trouble.

vERMoN7's LOCAL OPTION.

Tn spite of the prohibition wave which has been sweeping over the country, Vermont has acted upon that question in accordance with judgment based upon it's own experiences. The Green Mountain state has tried pro- hibition and it has also had local op- tion and from the fact that the ma- jority has declared in favor of the latter it Is to be presumed that it has given the more satisfactory results. There can be no other conclusion from the expression of the voters.
 Since 1903 Vermont has been under local option laws and 1t doesn't want to go back to the days of prohibition. For a half century that state was one of the rankest prohibition states but conditions had become such that there was a loud clamor for change. The reason for this was that under pro- hibition there were over 800 federal licenses for the sale of intoxicants in that state. It was possible to get Ii- quor even though the state had de- clared against 1t, and the state was
 losing the benefit of the revenue which under license would have been
 received from it Where there were
 alleged to have been no towns witt oe71OOIAS p1OA11O4lAOI "CAS
 last year under local option saloons 1T
 but 14 towns.
 Thus apparently the intentions ot the people of Vermont were being | constantly defeated under statewide prohibition and there seems to bt good reason for believing that thiI entered prominently into the cam paign which has been waged in tha state, and the result is that Vernon | has decided to get the liquor question 1 under such control that 1t will bes | satisfy the people and correspond with their wishes. Where prohibition | has proved a failure with them, 1oca i option apparently meets with favor.

THE GERMAN FLEETS SALLY,

Just what was intended by the send- ing out into the North Sea of that German fleet, estimated to number from 25 to 50 of the best of the kali ser's vessels, has not been made plain. So far as known nothing was accomplished, except that it was in tended to show contempt for the manner in which the British are maintaining their patrol, and even then it appears to have been devoid of results.
 ss From such a sally something must have been expected. The move indf- cated that a naval engagement might be anticipated in that region, sooner or later, but it is evident that noth- ing of the kind could have been seri- ously sought else it would have been possible to have been accommodated had the search been carried on in The right direction.
 ssf Unless something has been SUD- pressed it has simply given those popped up ships, and others which nay have been added to the fleet ir he past IS months, a chance to linn Der up, and at the same time, if the leports which are coming from Ger. many are correct, it was a demon.
  epease the clamor of the people fol flction, for thus far, recognizing tht strength of the enemy, it has beer considered the wisest course to holc the navy in reserve and the greate, part of 1t has had a decidedly eas, time.
 It is entirely possible that it wa intended for a reconnoitering cruis and one explanation has maintaine, that 1t was used for the purpose o giving protection to other sea raider which were going out to resume tn work which the Moewe had so sue cessfully carried on, but as yet trer has been no evidence to support it. l has been insisted that a big naval en gagement was due in the North SC soon, and that that dash was intende as the challenge, but if that is s the challenge will have to be repeated

Mrs. whitehouse's Statement.

Mrs. WhitehouSe's statement.
 MT. Editor:-In %iew of the fact that the poem referred to in the following letter has been circulated among anti suffragists in Norwich, it seems ad- visable to call attention to what Mrs. Whitehouse has to say on the sub ject.
 Mrs. Norman de R. whitehouse, chairman of the Woman Suffrage Party of the State of New York. has sent out the following letter to all members of the New York Leg1sla- ture:
 I am told that the suffragists have been circulating among the leg I had once given to a magazine; they cite in connection with my action a shocking and sacrilegious poem re- gently published by the same maga- zine. The inference suggested is that uphold or have upheld the poem. I am told, and it cannot fail to be true, that these dishonest tactics are arous- ing prejudice and causing damage to the cause of suffrage. For that reason I lay before you the following facts: In November 1915, I among others signed a request for funds for the magazine. which had always SUD- ported woman suffrage and whose editors, artists and contributors work for it without pay. Two months later, in January, 1916, the poem in question was published. had never seen or heard of the poem. nor had heard of any of the circumstances of its publication until the anti-suf- ragists began this attack upon me.
 Woman suffrage Is one of the great
