Mrs. James Kirkendall, aged sixtysix years, died last evening at her home one mile north of Monroe at six o’clock, after an illness of several weeks* duration, death resulting from a complication of diseases, which brought about a stroke of paralysis. Mrs. Kirkendall was one of the best known women in that community, being held in high esteem by all who knew her. On Monday she suffered a stroke of paralysis, which was the beginning of the end, her constitution which had already been wrecked by the ravages of other diseases, being unable to stand any further abuse and last evening the end came. The funeral services will be held Thursday morning at ten o'clock at the M. E. church at Monroe, Rev. Jones officiating, and interment will be made in the chapel cemetery. She leaves a husband, three sisters and four brothers to mourn their loss. o — Dr. A. Ralston one of Adams county’s best practitioners, and for many years a resident of near New Corydon, was looking after business and friends here today.

A change of venue was taken in the case of the state against Mike Everett this morning, the case being venued from Squire Smith’s court to Squire J. H. Stone’s court. The defendant is st'ill in jail, and will no doubt stay there until the hearing of the case, which will be in a few days. Mr. Haugk is suffering no inconvenience from his experience although the wound is still a little sore. J. B. Stoneburner is today announcing that on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings of this week he will present the famous Passion Play pictures. There is 4,000 feet of this film, and the entire show will be new at each performance. This is an opportunity of a lifetime, and those who have never seen the same should take advantage of the same. The price of tdmishion wiebil net admission will be ten cents. * The improvements on the building now occupied by the firm of Gay & Zwick are going merrily along, and will soon be ready for occupancy. According to the terms of their new lease, Mr. Lether was t omake some improvements and he is now busily engaged in living up to his part of the program. The sale as being conducted by this firm still continues, and they are disposing of many useful articles. You had best go in and look the line over and see if you don’t need something in their line. The Electric Theater proprleaors will positively show the best and latest films that have ever been put on in he city at tonight’s enterainment. The first subject, President Faller’s visit to the Colonial Exhibition, is fine in every respect, showing the most interehting and instructive pictures that , have ever been witnessed in the city. The second film, with “A Race for a , Million" for the subject} shows a tragedy, in which an automobile occupied by a man and woman, races with a train to recover a gold jeld claim from a wretch who stole it from a , poor mountaineer. The automobile overtakes and beats the train to the station, where the valuable paper is recovered. This is indeed an excellent performance, and deserveh the patronage of the people. c - .....

THE MAKINGS OF GLUE.’: Not a Definite Organic Subetapce, but Product of Transformations. Glue is not a definite, positive organic substance, as most people suppose. Chemists tell us that glue does not pre-exist in any animal organism except under abnormal conditions—as in disease—but is the product of several transformations. The first transformation takes place in drying the hide. If a green hide is boiled after being prepared in exactly the same manner by liming, etc., while it Is yet green, an entirely different product of less consistency is secured than by drying the hide after liming and then boiling. The second transformation seems to take place in boiling the material, probably from action of the heat. The third transformation occurs in the drying of the jelly secured in the boiling operation. Still another transformation occurs in the drying of this jelly into actual glue, and this series of charges does not end here, for glue dissolved in water and again boiled sufficiently long loses its form once more and | will not gelatinize, but will remain in liquid form Glue yielding substances are produced by the animal economy from protein bodies, albumen, fibrin and casein. The impossibility of preserving for any length of time the stock from which glue is made renders It necessary to adopt some system in choosing and preserving it until sufficient quantities are collected without fermentation or decomposition. Hence the refuse from tanneries consisting of the clippings of hides, ears and tailpieces of ox, calf and sheep and from skins of other animals are preferred because they can be dressed with lime, which removes the hair and acts as an antiseptic. The ordinary bone stock glue is made from the larger bones of cattle and horn piths, collected from different sources. A large quantity of waste bones is accumulated in the preparation of tinned provisions. If these have not been overheated and are in good condition a considerable amount of glue can be obtained from them. The bones from the head, ribs and feet give a better yield than those of the thighs and legs. There is also the hoof glue, which is made from the hoofs of different animals. Then there Is glue made from sinews and fleshings, and also a grade , known as rabbit glue made from the skins of hares and rabbits. This glue makes a good water test, but should never be used to cement a belt. There Is a large quantity of this glue made in this country, and a person not very familiar with it. could easily be deceived. The age of animals yielding glue stock has an important influence on the product. While from younger animals the production as a rule is of a lighter color, more abundant and more easily obtained, it contains more chondrin, so that for solutions of equal strength those from mature animals will be found to be of the great consistency and the glue more solid. Then again there is what is known as the pig stock glue, which is made from the feet of hogs. Next comes the fish glue or isinglass. Its varieties are numerous, and a thorough knowledge of them can only be obtained when one is personalty acquainted with the different factories and stock from which they are made. The best of this material, however, is made from the sounds or air bladders of the different species of fish. The air bladders of the common sturgeon and other fish caught in northerly climatm make the best.—Wood Craft ■ I—— l 8730 Most Comfortable Bed You Ever Slept On PROVE FT YOURSELF Let Us Deliver One To Yon On 60 Days Trial Hirschman’s / f King 11 / f Double Deck Turkish 1 I I f Spring 1 I I■ it the perfect bed for mankind.

Thus, at Wanganui, when certain sawyers troubled their neighbors by their drunken freaks the delinquents were made to pay the fines imposed in such labor as they were accustomed to and were set to sawing wood with which to build a prison. The result was that rather than transgress agais, they vanished from the locality as soon as the building was complete. Men who are not considered chronic criminals are subjected occasionally by experiments in this country to a course of Turkish baths, followed by showers and by a cold douche, the idea being that their criminal instincts are due to physical degeneracy which may be thus counteracted. A Massachusetts town punishes female offenders by giving them at first poor clothes and cracked crockery from which to take their food, good dresses and better table equipment being provided and leave being given to keep pet animals as an improvement in their conduct is made manifest.—St. Louis Post-Dispatch. How She Viewed It. Perhaps she was jealous, perhaps she wasn’t Anyway, she had just heard of the engagement, and she could not help noticing the engaged girl’s pride in her captured youth. “Really,” she said, and her lips curled scornfully, “there’s no accounting for tastes. Is there? Some people think they have won the game when they get the booby prize.”
