LAST NIGHTS DREAMS
WHAT THEY MEAN

It'd you dream Of vineyard and grapes ?
Much pleasure in life and financial sue
cess are promised by the mystics TO
those who dream OF grapes, and the omen
is especially favorable il you dream you
are in a vineyard and see the grapes
hanging upon the vines.
Success in business ventures il foretold
to those who dream of a vineyard, and
for lovers the dream Is an omen OF an
early marriage.
While It ia a good sign TO dream OF a
vineyard at any time, It is considered an
especially good augury TO dream of one
in the season in which the grapes are
ripe.
II You dream you ara eating grapes
and that they are pleasing to the taste,
1t is an omen Of many joys ahead OF you
and much money coming to you; but II
they taste sour and unpleasant the dream
foretells sorrows and trials before you
reach the ease and afiiuence foretold by
the general Specification OF such a dream.
Some OF the oracles say that 20 dream
Of eating white grapes is sure sign OF
great monetary gains, purple ones of a
considerable fortune coming to you and
black ones a danger OF losses.
To dream of picking grapes from a vine
Is an omen that you viii soon meet q
stranger. who win have considerable to
do with your life hercafter.-Copyrigh

On Sending Editors to Jail

Some time ago the Indianapolis
Times editorially made serious
charges against the criminal court of
Marion county and in connection with
proceedings in the grand jury room
during the investigation into the
filthy conditions in the Marion
county Jail The prosecuting attor-
ney of Marion county, one Clara
Adams, protested to Judge Collins,
and contempt proceedings were COM
menced against-not the editor and
editorial writer who wrote the edi-
torials and was responsible for them,
but-against the managing editor
who had no jurisdiction whatever over
the editorial page. This fact was dis
closed to Judge Collins. Mr.. Butler,
the editorial writer and editor, told
him that he wrote the articles. Mr..
KilgaIlen, the managing editor, ex-
planned that he did not write them,
but that BRtler was the author. And
Collins brushed all this aside and
insisted on Furnishing for contempt
party who had nothing to do with
the proceedings to which objection Is
taken Mr.. Butler in a signed article
following the sentencing of Kilgallen
to Jail for twenty days, declaring that
TINS was done TO prevent DutAek from
proving the charges he had made true.
The case has been appealed to the
supreme court. without having any
positive knowledge as to the merits
of the controversy we do know that
it is a serious proposition to throw
editors in Jail for telling the truth.
Fortunately few editors are towards
or lacking in the courage of their
nrofeSsion even though it be unfor-
tunate that so many can not conceal
their contempt for some officials in
Indiana.-Ft. Wayne Journal-Gazette.
