ACCUSED CANDIDATE SUICIDED. (United Press Service.) LaCrosse. Wis., Sept. 1 — (Special to Daily Democrat) —Accused of grafting in using government envelopes for his campaign literature. Frank P. Tucker, progressive republican candidate for attorney general, committed suicide at Oshkosh last night, by jumping from a bridge into the river. Wednesday morning carpenters began work on the interior of the Clover Leaf depot and frhen their work is finished a number of improvements will have been added. The office part of the station has been entirely too small and the enlargement of this is the principal improvement to be made. ; The partition leading to the ware- : room will be torn out and moved back ! to make ample room for their large

and increasing business. When the work is completed the depot will be up-to-date in every respect. Frank Miller, west of Ceylon, who was yesterday adjudged insane, is lodged in the Adams county jail awaiting admission to the Easthaven Insane asylum. He was brought to this city by Sheriff Eli Meyer and Deputy Ed Green. Sheriff Meyer having received a message from Geneva asking him to come with as many men as he could bring, as the patient was quite dangerous. He was quieted, however, and brought to this city with no trouble. He is a son of Henry Miller of Wabash township, is married and has eight children. A sad feature of the case is that one of his daughters is very sick at present with typhoid fever.

LEADERS ARRIVE Governor Marshall to Return From North Friday—Political Affairs. THE ELECTION BOARD I Will be Organized —Senator Beveridge Expected Any Time Now. — DEMOCRATIC NEWS BUREAU. 325 Pytnlan Building. « Indianapolis, Ind.. Sept. I—(Special to Daily Democrat) —The final stage ot the Indiana campaign is foreshadowed by the home-coming of opposing leaders from their summer vacations and the preparations for the unlimbering of the big guns of the speaking campaign, which is not more than three weeks distant. In the interim the election machinery will be oiled and made ready. Governor Marshall will return from Michigan Friday of this week and his first step will be to organize the board of state election commissioners Under the law the state chairman of the democratic and republican parties will each name one member of this board and the governor will serve at the third member. A clerk is also to be chosen. One of the duties of the board is to compile the vote of 1908 and return it to the auditor of each county in the state for verification. Afterward twen-ty-five per cent will be added for the normal increase in the vote. The board must also prepare the ballots and arrange other election details in the matter of printing. There are several weeks of good hard work ahead for the board and the governor is anxious to get it under way. John W. Kern, democratic nominee for the United States senate from Indiana. has returned from Michigan, where he spent several weeks this summer. When he went away he promised to come back in "fighting trim” and he has kept his promise. His health is improved and he is in every way ready to enter the campaign. Mr. Kern has made two informal speeches since he left Michigan and has two more scheduled before the real speaking campaign begins. Tomorrow he will address a reunion of old settlers at Charleston and on Saturday he will speak at Versailles. in Ripley county, where the democrats will hold a county convention. Senator Beveridge is expected almost every day from New Hampshire, where he has been resting and hearing the reports made to him by his cabinet —"Baron" Rotchschild. Elam Neal, John R. Bonnell and Charles W. Miller Senator Beveridge expects to begin his speaking campaign in the middle of September, the date having not been announced. He will make a few informal speeches in the meantime.

The republican speakers' bureau win open tomorrow, with Williem E Sprunger of Elizabethtown, a devout Beveridge follower, in charge. Mr. Springer can be depended on to keep out of Indiana any speakers who might air views which would conflict with the attitude of Senator Beveridge. This means that the real republicans are to be muzzled unless they make affidavit that they will be good. James E. Watson will, of course, be prohibited from speaking under the present plans. The democratic speakers' bureau, which has been in operation for two weeks, is receiving assurances every day of assistance in the speaking campaign. Not only ate the state speakers offering their time, but men of national fame are coming to the front and will be heard on the stump in behalf of democracy. Congressman William A. Cullop of Vincennes spoke yesterday at Columbus before a Chautauqua audience and devoted most of his time to a review of the expenditures of the republican senate. His quotations from the report of the secretary of the senate astonished his audience and his arguments carried conviction as was evidenced by cries of approval which came from his hearers. o TO OPEN OFFICE. After a two weeks’ vacation Dr. Fred Patterson will reopen his dental office Monday morning, where he will be pleased to meet his former and new patrons. 206t3 o .

LECTURE TONIGHT (Continued from rage 1.) for themselves. Talk about a mem- , ory. If you will only teach the children to think straight, memory will take care of itself. It pays to plan a lesson. Professop Hoyt favored the institute with a beautful reading. Wednesday Mtvernoon. Song, "Home Sweet Home." •Interest and the Course of Study.’ by Professor Hoyt. If you can not make your class interested do not lay the blame on your class. If you take the blame yourself you will some day become a great teacher. Professor Hoyt applied the life of Herbert in his lecture Wednesday afternoon. Which will come first, attention or interest? The answer comes. The first thing to do is to get the idea, and the proper idea will bring interest, and interest will arouse attention. The idea is to give the idea the child can give to some one else. Government is the forcible control of the will for the time being. Training is the allowing the child to exercize a choice after he understands the things governing the idea. You can secure in terest to quite an extent by curiosity, called empirical. When you get a group together and get them interested it is called social interest. Another interest is that of religion, called religious interest. If we would get the class interested in something of beauty it is called aesthetic interest. You get the interest aroused and it will express itself somehow. The institute was favored at this time with a vocal solo by Miss Bertha Carver. Music by Professor Miessner. This period was taken up in singing, emphasis being placed upon the mechanical side of music. “The Aspects of Education.” by Professor Neet. We study in our schools and teach in our schools for two reasons. That minds may be more efficient tools for the living. I should like to see our schools giving more practical work. We need the practical knowledge. It is the knowledge our children need. In speaking of the fruit-raising occupation, I will say that the people should protect their fruit trees. I noticed some fruit trees that were nearly dead from the San Jose scale. Now this can be conquered if taken at once, and it will be a saving to a community. Although it seems that some think it of no use to try to
