Lola Ctrieton took morphine with suicidal intent last night at a resort known aa Oklahoma, run by a man named Zimmerman, about five miles southwest of the city, and died from the effects of the drug about 10 o’clock this morning. Accompanied by another young woman. Grace Patton, living In West Onto street, she went to the road-house about 11 o’clock last night, riding on a West Indianapolis car to the edge of the city and walking the real of the way. On her arrival she told the piano player that she had drunk k half pint of whisky, and a little later, when she seemed to retUe In a atuper, little was thought of the matter, as she was thought to be drunk. Grace Patton decided to stay at the place all night and put Lola Carleton to bed. and a ahort time after went, to bed herself. About S o’clock she was awakened by the heavy breathing of her companion, and called the bartender. They worked with the unconscious woman, mill thinking that she was drunk, but were unable to revive her. They began to grow alarmed about 9 o’clock this morning and called Dr. F. E. Manker.

Mar Ion County Divided Into Foar Coanellninnlc Districts. The county commissioners have decided upon the councllmanic districts of the county, as follows; Wayne and Decatur townships to be known as District No. 1; Pike, Washington and I^iwrence townships, No. 2; Warren, Franklin and Perry, No. 3, and Center township, No. 4. Marion county, of course, could not be so divided as to make the districts of equal population, but the law says "as equal as possible." It Is contended that Center township ought to hqve the three councllmen-at-large. as well as Us own councilmen, on account of the supremacy of Us Interests, but the law makes no distinction between townships. The last legislature created In the several counties of th« State what Is to he known as a county council, and which :n

Dividend will Amount to Over #12,OOO—15,000 (Talmauta— Receiver to be nischarired—History , of the Ca»e.

Judge McMaster, of the Superior Court, to-day ordered James Falley, receiver of the Iron Hall, to distribute the final divi-dend—one-flfth of 1 per cent.’ The dividend will amount to something over $12,000. The order means the end of the trust. When the money is distributed to the 45.000 claimants. the receiver will be discharged, and the final entry made in the court record forever closing the trust. The application for the appointment of a receiver was made July 29. ’92, the hearing began in court before Judge Taylor August 4. and ended In the appointment of a receiver on August 23. There was In various banks and other places of deposits about $500,000, and about $1,000,100 in the hands of subordinate lodges throughout the United States. There was also real estate, mortgages and bonds of the value of $500,000. There were 63,000 members, of tvhom 18,000 either did not present their claims or did not prove them to the satisfaction of the court. Receivers were nopointed In several States, but the Supreme Court decided that the receiver In the State whre the home office was located was the proper one to make the distribution of the assets. The State receivers submitted generally to this decision, and the subordinate lodges sent -their money lo this city. In three States, however, the members preferred to make their own distribution of the funds in their possession. They got thus from 17 to 20 per cent, of their claims.' Those who remained loyal to the Indiana receiver will have received, with the last dividend, 35 1-5 per cent. There has been almost continual litigation during the seven years, and the Supreme Court was called upon to decide new and Important points in receivership suits and the rights of members of fraternal orders of the Iron Hall kind. There are about 10.000 pages of -court record in the Iron Hall case. The total liabilities were $5,100,000. The receiver collected In assets $2,000,000. The total cost of administering the trust has been 5 per cent., which Is said to be small. The receiver and his attorney. Harold Taylor, say that Judge McMaster has been watchful, diligent and economical In

MARION COUNTY COUNCIL DISTRICTS.

this county will be known as the Marion County Council. It is provided by thgJLaw that within twenty days after the act goes Into effect the county commissioners shall divide each county Into four councilmanic districts of contiguous territory as nearly equal in population as possible without dividing any township. The councilmen are to be elected by the voters, one from each district, and in addition three councilmen-at-large elected by the whole county. The first election Is to occur In November, 1900. The salaries are from $10 to $20 a year, according to the population of the county. It is the duty of the circuit Judge, within thirty days after the law goes into effect, to appoint seven councilmen to serve until the first election. He may appoint a bare majority, but no more, of the same political party. Judge Allen said to-day that now that the districts have been created, he will give his best attention to finding good men to fill the plate, and will be willing to receive suggestions for some days yet PURCHASED PATRONAGE.

Genuine Smallpox at Greenfield. [Special to The Indianapolis News.] Greenfield, Ird., May 4.—There is no longer any doubt that there Is a genuine case of smallpox In this city. The case under suspicion was pronounced fully developed by Drs. J. M I-arlmore and W. R. King this morning. The result of 'their diagnosis was at once telephoned to the Secretary of the Suite Board of Health. The victim is Miss Stella Newhouse, of Liberty, this State, from which place she came to this city one week ago. She is a guest at the home of Barney Coffleld. The house has been placed under quarantine, and every precaution has been taken to prevent the' spread of the malady. A Murderer Hanged. Scranton, Pa.. May 4.—George K.

his care -of the trust. He cut down all allowances from the amounts asked, and made the per cent. half, or less than half, what is usually allowed, they say. The receiver, they say, got about 2 per cent., where the customary allowance Is 5 per cent. The amount that each claimant will receive under this final dividend will not be worth traveling far for. The average claim Is for $110, and each claimant will receive, therefore, on the final dividend an average of 22 cents, ADULTERATED FOOD.

Accruing to Dr. Wiley Few Articles Are Absolutely Pure,

Chicago, May 4.—Dr. H. W, Wiley, chief chemist of the United States Department of Agriculture, who testified before the pure food committee yesterday, gave In detail the methods, of manufacturers In adulterating different articles of food. In milk, he said, the most common practice Is the extraction of the fatty substance in taking away the cream. A common practice among dealers was the adulteration with water, and in addition to this preservatives are used to no small extent to prevent the liquid from souring. In butter the common way of defrauding the public waa the substitution of other fats, both anlma; and vegetable, for the natural fat of the milk. Both cottonseed oil and ‘high grades of lard were employed In this work. Honey. Dr. Wiley said, probably was a more abused article In the line of adulteration than any other. The principal 'method of adulterating lard is the mixing of vegetable oils with the natural fat of the hog. AH kinds of pure oils, he said, were heating to the system, as well as great aids in digesting. Another fraud which Is carried on to a very great extent Is the selling of cottonseed oil for olive oil. Probably among all the foods mentioned by Dr. Wiley, none attracted greater attention than the adulteration of coffee, even In the berry. In recent Investigations he has found molasses and flour molded Into berries, colored, mixed with the genuine and sold as high-grade coffee. According to Dr. Wiley, there Is very little pure beer made In this country. Fully 70 per cent, of the beer which is sold In this country is made of some other article than malt. In regard to the exclusive use of glucose, witness said that It waa not objectionable for food purposes If used In moderation. Very little pure Jelly is manufactured. There also is a great amount of adulteration in the manufacture of vinegar. Dr. Wiley said Vermont maple sugar was manufactured in Davenport, la., out of brown sugar and an extract of hickory bark, and It was not deleterious. In fact, he said. It was impossible for chemists to distinguish the two. Spices, he said, were adulterated, and peanut shells were pamled off as ground cinnamon. Into Voluntary Liquidation. The Daviess Building and Loan Association this afternoon notified Auditor of State Hart that Its board of directors had passed resolutions to go Into voluntary liquidation. The company had Its headquarters at Washington. Ind. Its authorized capital was $500,000, and its capital stock $62,100. The Eureka Building and Loan Association, of Marlon, has also gone into voluntarv liquidation. Its capital stock is $129,800 and its authorized capital is $500,000. County Cases of Smallpox. Dr. Rldpath. secretary of the County Board of Health, this morning raised the quarantine in the home of George Vandeveer, in Norwood, east of the city, in whose house several cases of smallpox developed some time ago. It was the intention also to raise the quarantine In the home of George Noel, in the same neighborhood, but a new case of the disease was discovered this morning, a child belonging to Noel being afflicted.
