Indianapolis next week. It shows • that Dan has the proper Inspiration t for this year, when every one is "up on his toes,” and when the democrats are going to win a notable victory. Read his call in today's issue. He has 8 the proper ideas and has a good way J of telling them. - 5 BOUCK WHITE. 1 Bouck White, the biographer of Daniel Drew, is a graduate of Union • Theological Seminary who is devoting ' his life to social service. He is now Head Resident of Trinity House, New ' York City, and a prominent factor on the work of this institution, which ' seeks to unite all classes and creeds 1 in the cause of good citizenship and , make the Christian church a telling factor for social and civic betterment. ’ Born in 1874 in Middleburg, New • York, a Dutch village in the Catskills, Mr. White graduated from Harvard in 1896. Before entering Union, he spent some time as a reporter for the "Springfield (Mass.) Republican." “The Book of Daniel Drew,' by Mr. Bouck White, published this month by Doubleday, Page & Co., is the first adequate biography of this remarkable up-state cattle drover, who became one of Wall street's shrewdest and most Napoleonic figures. Its fundamental source is a diary found in au old trunk, in Putnam couny. New York, where the financier was born, but the book Is amplified by many facts from Drew's relatives, from Wall • street histories, and other sources. It is told in the first person, in the uncouth, illiterate manner of speech that Drew employed, and forms a unique and fascinating addition to Wall street literature. - Why not have a birthstone, which brings courage, wisdom and good luck to the wearer?

MAY SETTLE- CASE Without Trial — Railroad Company May Settle the Damage Suit Brought BY MISS MYLOTT For Injuries Received in W r eck—Representative of Company Here. It is quite probable tnat the $5,000 damage suit brought by Miss Genevieve Mylott against the City Railways Company of Chicago for injuries received by her in a collision while riding on the road a year or so ago, will be compromised. The case which has been pending for some time has been set for trial next week, but in the meantime efforts are being made to settle without trial. A Mr. Ladd, representing the City Railways Co. was in the city Monday and Tuesday collecting facts and references relative to the family and the accident to Miss Mylott, and a meeting was set for this morning at 10 o'clock at Chicago, at which time representatives of both parties will meet and attempt to agree upon a settlement without trial. Miss Mylott is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Tom Mylott of this city and the accident, it will be remembered, occurred to her about a year ago in a collision while riding on the road. She was badly injured and was in the hospital for some time after the accident. She, with a brother and sister, are living in Chicago, where they are singers in a theater. Mr. and Mrs. Mylott also resided in Chicago for some time, but have returned here to make their home. o - FOR SALE —A Shorthorn bull calf. Splendid stock. Inquire Sam Wyatt, R. R.
