FRIDAY, JULY 2G, 1901.
WHATEVER they may think of the American system of government, the citizens of Havana must admire the American plan of sanitation.
IT is proposed to increase the strength of the Belgian army to 180,000 men. Yet they talk about "militarism" in the United States, where we have less than half that number in our army!
LAST year the Dingley tariff produced custom receipts of $238,000,000, and it didn't stille foreign trade either, our exports amounting to more than $1,500,000,000, a record breaking total.
THE papers report that Admiral Schley may sue Historian Maclay for defamation of character. Like most other persons who sue for character Shley would probably get a bad one with one cent damages for solace,
THE new tenement house law in New York provides for moral as well as physical disinfection by preventing vicious and disorderly persons from establishing themselves under the same roof with the poor and respectable class. For harboring vice the penalty is $1,000 and alien upon the property. Authority in the case is exercised by the health and police departments.
IN the last four years dividends paid by public corporations in the United States have doubled, and in twelvp years they have nearly quadrupled. The seven years' increase in the par value of bonds paying July interest is 42 per cent., and the amount paid has increased 38 per cent. Good government, a sound currency, abundant crops, and general business confidence have worked the change.
SOME papers announce that McLean's bar'l won in the Ohio Democratic convention, and others assert that the Tom Johnson bar'l was uppermost. It is more than probable that these two men are working together behind the scenes, and that they will combine the instant they can make anything by a deal. McLean is hoping for an offyear victory next November, and a Democratic legislature to send him to the senate. Johnson expects to be the other senator later on, or perhaps candidate for governor in 1903. McLean ran for governor two years ago pn a rabid silver platform containing twen-ty-one planks. His present "conservatism" may be gauged by that incident.
McLean and Johnson will be satisfied with a division of the state and are working to that end with their usual monkey business of pretending to fight each other. They divided the results of the convention and will keep on dividing.
SLAVERY IN THE PHILIPPINES.
A dispatch from Manila states that a chief in one of the remote islands in the Philippine group has issued a proclamation prohibiting slavery or slavetrading in his district, announcing it to oe unfavorable to progress. The Philippine commie-ion, the same dispatch sfeys, has passed a resolution thanking the chief for his action. Some of the critics who are so anxious to discredit their ow:i country, have insisted that the United States is tolerating slavery under the Jlafj. 1'ne truth is that the government will wipe outslavery in the Philippines at the earliest possible moment. If it can be done peaceably and with the consent and co-operation of the chiefs where it prevails, as in the case mentioned, so much the better, There are 1,500 islands in the arehipelago. lime will be required to deal with them all and diplomacy is a good weapon to employ as far as it accords sep\ with honorable principles.
Every step ta«en in the Philippines has been in behalf of the enlightened freedom of the inhabitants. Some of the chiefs where slavery exists will be willing to abolish it for a proper consideration, and emancipation by purchase is not anew idea, nor is it rated as inferior to forcible means. Slavery has not been the only form of despotism in the Philippines. All the islanders were more or les* in bondage when the United Sates struck down tbe arbitrary power of revolutionary chiefs, provincial rulers, religious orders and Spanish soldiers. By patierjt methods Slavery and slave-trading have been declared at an end by the most important chief in the district of Zamboango, and back of his act is the policy to be pursued by1 the United States.

In Memory of Harry Parish.
^'"Leaves have their time to fall. And flowers to wither at the north wind's breath,
And stars to set, but all Thou hast tail seusons for thine own, O Death!"
•'•Harry Vernis Parish, the little son of Albion Parish, died at their home near Wesley, on Tuesday, July 10,1001, after anjillness of only about 24 hours of spinal meningitis, aged 5 years, 10 months and 17 days.
Harry was a bright child, loved and cherished by his many friends and relatives,' and their loss is his eternal gain. How sad are our hearts when we are called upon to part with such earthly treasures. No sorrow is greater than when we look at those little eyes forever closed and those sweet lips forever stilled by the cruel hand of death. He is gone, we cannot call him back. But Cod permits us for the last time to look upon the little form so dear, now cold in death. Yet, life would not be worth living had we not some hidden treasure in the skies to make Heaven noarer and dearer to us to make us strive to win the one great prize God has offered to all who believe in Him. The funeral was held Wednesday at 2 o'clock at the Lutheran church near Wallace, Rev. Whitman officiating, after which the remains were tenderly laid to rest in the cemetery near by beside his motherand little sister,Lora.
"There is no death, the stars go down To shine upon some fairer shore Anrl bright in Heaven's jeweled crown
To shine for evermore

erick YV. I.unil. tne bookkeeper and paymaster of the Fosburgh lirm, in testify ins, declared that he felt some of the men who were employed by
firm were dangerous and said lie UJ.iew ihey curried weapons. Another came during the testimony of the father of the dead girl when he said: "Then May went in and sang several selections while Miss Sheldon ula.ved. The last song she sang was
Plains of l'eace.' The father had been describing the manner in which the family had spent the evening of Sunday preceding the tragedy. When he came to the reference to May's singing, his emotion for a few seconds made him unable to continue. Otherwise Mr. Fosburgh's testimony was given in clear-cut and distinct voice. His narrative of the discovery of the burglars and of his encounter with them was told with rapid distinctness.
Fish That Change Color.
It has been found that certain prawns, common along the coasts of England, change their color* at least twice every twenty-four hours, in order to harmonize with the stronger or weaker light prevailing near the surface or in the deeper water. As evening approaches these fish lose their distinctive day colors, and all assume a transparent azure hue. The change begins with a reddish glow, followed by a green tinge which gradually melta into blue. The day-and-night chang# has become so habitual that specimens kept in perpetual light or perpetual darkness nevertheless undergo' the periodic alteration of color.
Author of 'Zaza" Is Athletic*

Mis. D. C. Stover and daughter, Anna, are visiting relatives at Milwaukee.
Many from here will attend the big show at Crawfordsville next week if the weather will permit.
We are to have a rousing out door revival to begin in August under tent in the Christian church yard.
Tbe ladies of the M. E. church cleared thirty dollars on their food sale and ice cream supper last Satur day
Three different men have taken their turn at the sprinkler this week. We pity them if they do charge us fifty cents a week.
Miss Wl aggie Dodd, who is employed by the Home telephone company, at Crawfordsville, spends her Saturday evenings and Sundays with home folks at Ladoga.
With the crowd of citizens and their visiting friends on the streets, the band concert and ice cream supper on hand Saturday night we were all unconscious of the presence of any elopers in our midst.
Rev. C. U. Stockbarger and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Uhl and Mr. and Mrs. Frank Myers went on a frog hunt Tuesday night. They captured sixty of the happy fellows and have since been living high. They report as many snakes also.
Ladoga was winter all through May but what she is getting now of summer is a plenty, and added to the misery is an epidemic of sore throat that was probably delayed on the road or might have been diphtheria in cold weather. Many are affected.
We may safely conclude that Ladoga town property is taking on a price from a sale that was made quite re cently. But why shouldn't it with no big sewers, street improvements, etc menacing a peaceful community. Property is a restful investment.
The miserable habit of blowing the heading mill whistle every morning at five o'clock, thereby destroying the rest a tired or sick individual gets, has been stopped for the past two weeks on account of the dangerous illness of Tom Foster's little daughter. This long drawn out nuisance of whistle blowing should be stopped effectually.
We learn that some cottages and other conveniences are to be placed at Danewood Springs, just west of town, for the benefit of the many who desire to camp out and picnic at the place. Notwithstanding the intense heat last Sunday two hack loads of lively citizens were driven there to cool off and regale to their heart's content upon the famous spring water.
We have in mind a groceryman who, while the thermometer stands 103 in the shade, runs his lemons up to ten cents for four about the size of hen's eggs. Now Indianapolis may b3 a place of hot walls, melting streets, catiplllars and bed bugs, but you can get your lemons on the street corners out of wagons at a cent apiece or ten cents a dozen. Humanity and honesty are not always to be looked for in "small towns.
Ladoga is full of out of town visitors A part of them are Mrs. Lillian Rapp and family, of Middletown, O. M. D. Shirey and family, of Greenfield Mrs. Cora Davis and children of Chicago Mrs. Dr.Knepple, of Kokomo Mrs Mat tie Carter and Miss Nettie Epperson, of Colorado Miss Elsie Higers and Ethel Hibber, of Greencastle: the Misses Mary and Alice Bates, of Rensselaer, and.many others. We are fast becoming a summer resort.

It is terrible for men and horses to work in the harvest fields with the sun's parching heat pouring down on them. Men of the cities in their busi ness rooms think they have to endure heat, but put them in the wheat or hay fields under such a sun as was last Monday and they would soon wilt, even the atr passing is hot, smothering and laden with-dust.
