BIRD OF PARADISE Decatur Boys Achieve Victory After Seven Years in Bringing A PLANT TO BLOOM II ■ Beautiful “Bird of Paradise” Plant Budding in Grady’s Garden Plot. For six or seven years, Jack Grady, the popular Monroe street watchman at the G, R. & 1., and George Wemhoff and others, have tried faithfully to grow what is known as a blooming plant called “The Bf-d of Paradise ’’ Il is thought their efforts will b ■ crowned with succ<‘ss this year, as the plant is budding and the opening ol the flower will be watched with interest. The plant is one now growing in the flower garden plot of Mr. Grady at the side of his watch house on West .Monroe street. Each year the plant died before blooming. This time the plant had a good start, being kept last winter in the Moses greenhouse, and | set out this spring. One has matured finally and will soon bloom. Visitors to arizona have seen the plants growing in the open ground, but in the nortli they very rarely bloom except in hot houses, and the Decatur boys think they have achieved quite a victory in bringing this one to bloom. They need very little water and the stalk is nearly as hard as the wood of a tree. The bloom is said to be quite beautiful. SUTIFROMA SUIT New Glove Company Sues Owner of Building Occupied by the Old. FOR THE POSSESSION Os Gasoline Engine- -Given Judgment—The Case is Appealed. A suit that grew from a suit ami which seems to lie nearly as complicated as many of the old riddles, was appealed to tlie Adams circuit court from the court of Justice of the Peace Henry Dickerson of Geneva. In the first case Marcellus E. Hutton of Geneva was tlie plaintiff, seeking to recover from the Geneva Glove company, on contract. This was for the lease of his building occupied by the glove company. Hutton claimed tl at tlie company kept its machinery in tiie building longer than it will pay rent for. He got a judgment. Then tlie glove company amended their complaint for a new trial, claimin; tliat he refused to let tlie mechinery be taken out, the same having been purchased by, tlie None Better Manufacturing company, and that Hutton, therefore, Is not entitled to longer rent. Tlie suit brought here on appeal from the justice's court is entitled tlie None Better Manufacturing company vs. M. E. Hutton, demanding SIOO and tlie possession of a gasoline engine, stored in his building, which was pur chased from tlie old glove company which formerly occupied that building. The plaintiff company, which includes O. P. Schug, Jesse Sdiug, C. S. Clark, Joseph Tonnelicr. Janies Krouse and Vernon Pontius, was given a pldgment for $lO and costs by the justice, and an appeal was taken by tlie defendant. Tlie now glot" company opened at Hartford City. o s GOES TO FRANCE.

Indianapolis. Ind., Aug. 16-—(Special ,to Democrat) —Indiana has fine inI sine hospitals for tlie insane S(jd their maintenance each year costs tiie taxpayers many millions. Still the stat ■ Is confronted with the problem of accommodating I.*u u * insane persons who ought to be in institutions today, lint can not get in for lack of room. This is not sensationalism, according to Dr. George F. Edenharter. superintendent of the ('■ ntrel Indiana Hospital for Insane, which is located iir Indianapolis. It is a serious probi letn demanding the attention of the , earnest, patriotic and charitable clti- . z‘ns of Indiana, according to Dr. Ed- , enharter, a national figure in the i science oi caring and treating the insrpe. He says Indiana is doin'- nobly I by her unfortunates but he repents ! that there is tlie problem. Another i insane hospital is tlie solution, he ! thinks , Until this year tlie institution over | whii li h“ presides was a fi'o-trap and | foi many years only tlie great st care saved tlie state from the disgrace of : a holocaust there. Today the list two of six bmi fire-proof stairwavs ire !><•- I Ing put into tlie men's building and ; along with other fire escapes and fire- , fighting apparatus quite recently inI stalled, will almost wholly remove the i danger. "Tlie building should b demolished ! in its entirety.’’ -ays Mr. Edonharter lin his last report. Tlie men's bu’.ldlng I.as been patched together since it was originally built in IXIS, and the superintendent says it lias, served its ! purpose and ought to be razed to tlie ground, because ns long as it remains It will continue to he a monument of disgrace to our state and menace to the health and lives of our patients.’’ The solution, therefore, not only require ‘ a new insane hospital in addition to the present five but also the rebuilding of the present central hospital here- This Institution today cures for about 1,500 insane, who, with tiie .",00 attendants nt the hospital make up a little city of almost 3,000 on the 169 acres. The woman’s building, the principal one In size, thoroughly constructed, modern In its arniiigement and fireproof Is over 1 oon feet long and hits 1.112 rooms. Ik was I‘Ullt in 1875. Tlie hospUai for the sick insane, the pathological department biiildlng and the chapel-amnsement hall are the pride of Dr. Edenharter in his staff, in the pathological department pioneer work in the treatment and care of t’.v: insane and in clint al research has li en done.
