AT THE CAPITOL CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE He belongs to the Illinois and the Indiana state association of hotel men, and is always there when it comes to doing something that will benefit the men engaged in this line of business. At present that particular business is the restoration of the bar, as a means of keeping the wolf away from the door, in dry territory. Dick is becoming about as good a politician as he is a hotel man. He made a speech to a meeting of Indiana hotel men here, and many compliments were since heard as to the manner he acquitted himself. There were a few subjects that he handled without gloves, and it was unnecessary to get the services of an interpreter to get at the real meaning of what Dick was driving at. , County Recorder Steele was here this week attending a meeting of the county recorders of the state. The meeting developed several reforms which they will ask the legislature to give them, and it is reported that an increase of salary was not one of them. Last week several of the trustees of Adams were here attending a similar meetings as to their office, and this week the county auditors are holding the fort. Something doing all the time. L. G. E. OBITUARY. Armetha Yeoman was born January 26, 1867, and died December 16, 1910, aged 43 years, 10 months and 20 days. She was united in marriage to Jesse H. Burnett, January 28, 1890. To this union were born seven children, three boys and four girls, all of which still remain at home. She leaves to mourn her loss besides the above, her father, two brothers and a host of other relatives an* friends. She united with the Church of God in 1886 near Mendon. Ohio, and then joined the Methodist church near Spencerville, Ohio, in 1894, from which place she transferred her membership to the Salem Methodist church in 1901, to which she remained faithful till God called her to the church triumphant. Among her last words were, “I am going home. lam going to heaven, meet me there.” The funeral was preached by the Rev. D. A. J. Brown at the Salem church December 19th at 9 o’clock, the remains being taken to Venedocia, Ohio, where they were laid to rest. "When Jesus comes I must be awake, I must see His beckoning hand; My eye must follow the way He will take To that radiant, far-away land.” Then she slept the long, last sleep; Her pain was swept away, And life, in one great, pulsing leap, Dawned into fadeless day. “She has gone!” the lightning message said To her children, spent with grief. “She has come! from the shadowing realms of dread,” Breathed the angels in relief. o — BROOMS FOR SALE.

r THE FIRST CLOCKS. On* st Padua That Waa a Wonder of Mechanism. It wns, we are told. In 1300 that the first clock known to the world was placed in the tower of San EuHtorgio, in Milan. The greatest astonishment and admiration were manifested by crowds who flocked to see the timepiece. In 1344 a clock was Installed in the palace of the nobles nt Padua. This was ' a wonder of mechanism indeed, for ; besides indicating the hours it showed the course of the sun, the revolutions of the planets, the various phases of the moon, the months and the fetes of the year. The period of the evolution from the clock to the watch was seventy-one , years—not so very long, all things considered—and the record of the first watch Is 1380. A half century later an alarm clock made Its appearance. ’ This, we are told, was looked upon by the people of that age as “un instrument prodigleux." ’ The fortunate possessor of this clods was Andrea Alclato, a councilor of Milan. The chroniclers have placed i on record that this clock Sounded a bell at a stated hour, and at the same time a little wax candle was lighted ’ automatically. How this was done we 1 are not told, but it must not be over- ’ looked that until about seventy years ago we bad no means of obtaining a light other than the tinder box, so that the Milanese must have been cen- ) turies ahead of us in this respect Not much progress was made with the watch until 1740, when the sec- ’ end hand was added.—London Globe. ; TEMPTED, HE ATE. r A Story of Heinrich Heine and a 1 Toothsome Lyons Sausage. ’ Returning from a Journey to the 1 south of France, Heinrich Heine met a . friend, a German violinist. In Lyons, 3 who gave him a large sausage that I had been made in Lyons with the , request to deliver It to a mutual acquaintance, a homeopathic physician, ’ in Paris. Heine promised to attend to the commission and intrusted the delicacy to the care of his wife, who was traveling with him. But as the i postchaise was very slow and he . soon became very hungry, on the ad- • vice of his wife both tasted of the sausage, which dwindled with every mile. Arriving at Paris, Heine did not 1 dare to send the remainder to the physician, and yet he wished to keep i his promise. So he cut off the thlni nest possible slice with his razor. , wrapped it in a sheet of vellum paper and inclosed It In an envelope, with the following note: ’ Dear Doctor—From your scientific Investigations we learn that the millionth part of a certain substance brings about the greatest results. I beg. therefore, your 1 kind acceptance of the accompanying millionth part of a Lyons sausage, which our friend gave me to deliver to you. it homeopathy is a truth, then this little piece will have the same effect on you as the whole sausage. Tour HEINRICH HEINE. ' — Ughettl’s "With Physicians and CH ents." Old Time English Elections. In old time England each constituency gave its representative in parliament a horse to carry him to Westminister and also paid his expenses on ' the road. These expenses, together with an allowance for each day spent on duty at the house of commons, generally at the rate of 80 cents a day, were refunded in one lump sum when the member returned home at the end of the pariamentary year. Sir F. Delaval totaled seven votes in an attempt on Andover In the general election of ' 1768. An Item In bls election agent’s bill Is typical of the reckoning he had to pay: “To being thrown out of the George inn, Andover, to my legs being thereby broken, to sugeon’s bill and loss of time and business, all in the service of Sir F. Delaval. £500.” Lord Llandaff won Dungurvan tn 1868. The Item “£547 whisky,” caused him to protest faintly. “Begorra,” said his ■ election agent, "if ye want to squeeze a pippin like that ye’ll never do for ; Dungarvan.” Real Sea Serpents. In New Caledonia sea serpents are frequently seen and sometimes cap- > tured. They are curious creatures, , the head being very small and scarce- . ly distinguishable from the body and the tall being formed like an oar. In length they are generally between three and four feet. In the jaw there are tiny glands containing poison, but I as the mouth Is very small it is dlffiI cult for them to bite, and the natives handle them fearlessly. A European 1 traveler witnessed an experiment at • Noumea which shows that under certain conditions the sea serpent can do - deadly work. A rat was caught In a s trap, and Its tongue was grasped by a pair of pinchers and placed In the P mouth of a sea serpent The serpent 1 Immediately bit IL and the rat died in 1 four minutes. r - Cause of Thought. "You look thoughtful tonight, j Smith,” remarked Brown as ho stretch- , ed himself on two chairs. “Yes,” said Smith. “I have Just got a note from the landlady.” "What does she say?” "She says that I must pay my board at once or her daughter will sue me for breach of promise. I’m thinking what I’d better do.”—London Tit-Bits. Force of Habit. “ "You know that pretty salesgirl I t took home from the dance?" “Yes.” • "Well, I stole a kiss.” 4 "What did she say?’ «L > “‘WU! that be all?”’-Judg»
