Chicago, Leo Koretz, arch swindler, who put it over for twenty years and it couple of million dollars and who did it so cleverly that many patrons urged h m to handle their trust funds: who was finally captured when he < rdered fur lined pajamas from a Canadian tailor, plead guilty and got a sentence of one to four years, is dead in the Illinois prison after servin'-' hut thirty four days. His fast gait as usually the case Included fast living and he became a victim of diabetes, for which he had doctored and dieted several years. No difference how slick a fellow may be in getting the - other fellow's money, no one lias so far been smooth enough to figure out a system whereby he can burn the candle at both ends and live a long and honorable life. Bloomington, the seat of In I ana University, is out of water again end fraternity houses and others in that thy will lie supplied for some lime I y the water wagon route. Ilsa <■. dug shame that the condition < lists .nd f those who are out over the state trying to secure support to their efforts to get a larger tax levy, would include some real plan to provide pure water in a sufficient quantity to permit the students to take an < erasional bath between the time v, Jeu winter sets in and the spring rains start, they would create more s’nti- ' merit. we predict, among the parents who have children in the university. Something certainly ought to be done; just what we are not well enough acquainted with the fact i ' > st ite. It cost Mr. Goodrich more than $lO.OllO to .secure the republican nomination for governor, according to his own statement; it cost Mr. M ray several times that in his two r. ■■<«><; it cost Ed Jackson, or some one else for him, a heap more than the salary cf the office. What do these nt n want with the governorship that they , are willing to pay so handsomely for the honor? 1 the primary a good or bad thing for the people? The road committee of the lie atur Industrial Association will enertuin the land owners between this city raid the Allen county line on the Fort Wayne road at supper this evening. Itep.esent'itives of the highway comnhsion will lie present to explain just v hat action has been taken to date . nd if satisfactory plans will be made to secure the right-of-way for a fiftyfoot highway, information is meager and the local men desire the hm 1 owners to hear lite facts first hand , and to decide for themselves just what position wo as a community should take. The meeting is important and upon lh» results mrhaps depends whether we v.-'ll secure the improvement, at this time or writ a few yeats. After a brave struggle, Dr. 1,. L. Mattox, of Geneva, died at the Ad ano; County Memorial hospital early • this morning, following a two weeks’ iliip'ss and hundreds of relatives and '-id . aro mourning the loss of a. i plcndid citizen.

1 Perfect Through Suffering

He came not as an angel sent from heaven, On spirit wing that leaves the light behind; Appeared not on a mountain height full-grown, With shinging shield for haveniy hosts designed. A little lower than the angels made, A man-like man, and yet a God-like God: Ho walked the paths of earth in mortal pain Who. heaveWs happy hills, erst while * had trod. Th.e captain of our great salvation he,: By suffering made perfect,—to the i end i That, being tempted, he might succor Iheso i Oft tried by Satan and their souls defend His scepter rlghtcouness, behould he Hits At God’s right hand. Before him angels bow. All heaven oft recoes with his praise And diudet i j of glory crown his brow. A. I), Burkett.
