counties made an important and a

wise choice yesterday in nominating

the Hon. Stephen B. Fleming, to rep-

resent the district as joint senator

He will add strength to the local

tickets in both counties and prove a

most aggressive and active campaign-

er, a vote getter and a triumphant

leader. He will do these things be-

cause he will command the respect

and adherence of the discriminating

and patriotic voters of the two coun-

ties. They have confidence in his in-

tegrity and they know he does not

violate confidence. They recognize his

intelligence and his qualities of

leadership, and know that he will re-

flect credit upon them by an honest

and able fulfillment of every duty

More than any man of his age in In-

diana he is typical of the aggressive,

enterprising spirit of the times.

customed to dealing with large as-

fairs and to viewing men and events

broadly; fitted by nature and educa

tion for coping with great questions,

and possessing a keen insight into and

a comprehension of the fundamental

things underlying movements of great

import, he is a rnan of the stature so

Mr. Fleming is a man of progress

much needed in the lawmaking bodies

of the states. His business connec-

tions have always been large and con

ducted on a broad scale. From his

boyhood, almost, his ability has been

recognized by the builders of great

enterprises and his executive ability

has given him rank with the master-

minds of modern business life.

Mr. Fleming's political creed is dem-

ocratic and it is firmly grounded in

faith in and sympathy with the people. The son of one of the greatest

AN EXCITING TIME

Was Indulged in at Bluffton

Yesterday When Papa

Brown Arrived

AFTER HIS DAUGHTER

Who Was Living With

Piano Factory Employe —Both Got Away

Bluffton, Ind., April 8. —Joel Brown,

a cane-maker from the French Lick re-

sort, arrived in Bluffton yesterday as ternoon in search of his daughter.

Golda, who, he says, is less than 16

years of age and whom he declares has

been living in illicit relationship in this city with Fred Taylor, alias Wlliard,

fireman at the King piano factory. He says that the girl came to this city directly after Christmas and joined Taylor, who since coming to Bluffton, has traveled under the name of Williard, and at first she wrote that she and Talyor were married, but later Brown says that he discovered that this was a falsehood and he decided to come and investigate.

Upon his arrival here Brown created a sensation with his story, as it had been generally supposed that Taylor and the girl were married. Brown at first met the girl on the street, and later when be and two officers started to the piano factory to find Taylor the girl tried to get there ahead of them and give Taylor warning. They located Taylor and then Brown, finding that his worst fears were true, declared his intention of prosecuting Taylor, and left with the officers to secur&the necessary papers, one of the foremen giving his word that Taylor would be at the factory if they wanted him.

Hardly had her father and the officers departed, however, when Golda Brown hurried to the boarding house where she and Taylor have beeu living, and secured his best suit of clothes and carried them to the factory to him. He made a hurried toilet and when the officers returned with a warrant he had disappeared. The girl also failed to return to her bearding house and her father has since that time been unable to locate either of them and believes that they either left the city together last night or are both in hiding here.

SOCIETY’S ROUTINE

(Continued from page 1.) by Mrs. Jacob Eady on Friday afternoon.

The senior class of 1998 of Decatur high school held a class party at Miss Frances Bryson’s home last evening. What was done we will place a question mark, for it was a question.

Don't forget the ladies market of the Presbyterian church at the gas office.

Mrs. Charles Lange went to Berne this afternoon to spend the afternoon on business. oseph Whistler, of Monroe, was her* attending the funeral of George Louthan this morning. Mr. and Mrs. B. E.

MENACE TO COMMUNITY.

Beach Hargis' Release is Considered

Jackson. Ky., April 8. —The ap. proaching trial of the application of Beach Hargis for bail, which is set for hearing before Judge Adams here on Friday, is the source of solicitation on the part of the many citizens who be-

lieve that the reiease of this young patricide would be a menace to the peace and good order of this community. The clerks in the Hargis store, three of whom are the principal witnesses against the defendant, declare that they are unwilling to continue in their present employment in the event of the liberation of Beach Hargis They have each notified Floyd Day, who is conducting the Hargis store for his sister, Mrs. Hargis, that they will resign in the event bail is granted to Beach.

DOCTOR USES D. D. D. IN HIS PRACTICE.

Eminent Physician Says this Great Liquid Prescription is Certain Cure for Eczema.

Still another Eczema specialist comes forward in enthulsastic praise of D. D. D. Prescription, the wonderful external remedy wihch cures Eczema and other similar diseases like magic. He is Ds. C. B. Holmes, of Silver City, Miss., and in summing up his impressions of the startling cures D. D. D. has effected, he says: “I have been using your D. D. D. for four years with gratifying results. ’Tis as near a specific for Herpes, Eczema, Psoriasis, etc., as is quinine for malaria.” Dr. Holmes is one of hundreds of physicians who use D. D. D. in their daily practice. The D. D. D. company allows physicians io use this remedy with the understanding that they tell their patients what it was that cured them when the terrible itch has been wiped out, the skin healed and the raw wound covered over with soft white skin. D. D. D. is not a nasty paste to smear the skin and clothing, but it is a clear liquid. It is advisable to use D. D. D. soap in connection with D. D. D. Prescription.

Is any further proof of the curative powers of D. D. D. Prescription necessary? That remedy is sold/it Smith, Yager & Falk druggists. Come in and let us show you cohvincing proof that D. D. D. will cure your skin disease. Even if you have not decided to use D. D. D. remedy, come in and explain your case any way.

"IN A BREATH OF AIR”

Health Comes From Knowing How

and What to Breathe.

Both health and disease come "in a breath of air.’’

Dust laden with the germs of consumption or other disease is inhaled on every street, but disease does not develop unless the germs find conditions suitable for growth. In the catarrhal condition there is an ideal culture medium for these germs, as the weakened tissues are like a hotbed where the germs thrive and multiply until dangerously active. If you have catarrh, use the easiest, simplest and quickest cure, the direct method of Hyomei. whose wonderful medicated air destroys germs and makes catarrh and germ infection impossible.

You do not risk a cet in testing Hyomei’s healing virtues, for with every SI.OO outfit Holthouse Drug Co. give a guarantee to refund the money if it fails to cure.
