Governor Jackson has put his foot I down on the efforts to oust Dr. King and has notified members of the health board to let go or get out. or words to that effect. So that's that. W. J. Bryan left an estate conservatively estimated at >600,000. Not so bad for a man who earned every penny of It and who refused offers from large interests which would have meant that much easy money in any year of the past twenty-five. An lowa boy killed his father and wounded his mother and now pleads that he was crazed by "jangling" in the family. The penalty is "dangling" at ths end of a rope. A few doses may tend to make a lot of youngsters keep better control of their jazzed minds. Chautauqua week will provide the people of this vicinity a high class program of entertainment, music, lectures and instruction, it will give us the opportunity of hearing a number of the leading citizens of America and its an occasion u which all should join. If you haven't your tickets, get them at once. The committee is hard at work and deserve your support in every way. D. C. Stephenson may eventually defeat the law and escape punshment for causing the death of Miss Oberholtzer but he is going to know he has been in trouble. They have finally succeeded in getting Judge Hines to permit the trial of Stephenson and his partners Klinck and Gentry at one time and also a change of judge. They are pulling every legal string known to the profession of law and may win. but they are sure doing some fancy wiggling. Lew Shanks, the mayor of Indianapolis. auctioneer, vaudeville performer and political jumping jack has come out for Warren C. Fairbanks and is urging him to make the race against Senator Watson for the senatorial nomination. Fairbanks is now the majority stockholder of the Indianapolis News, a cold business man and a partisan politician. We can't imagine him getting far against the foxy senator but you never can tell about politics and if he gets some encouragement, may conclude to give It a whirl. His distinguished father served as a senator and as vice-presi-dent.

If we are to grow we must provide places for people to live and with indications that there will be more demand in the next year than ever before, the investments seem wise. The organization of loan associations here will make is possible to finance the building of homes and we are Informed that the population of this city can be increased several •hundred if houses can be sured in | which the people can live. That’s a healthy condition and a splendid indication for the years to come. Let's keep it up. We need the houses, they can be sold or rented. What's to prevent us doing it? There is a good deal of land in Florida that does not lend itself readily to useful purposes save as building sites and the value building site will depend upon location and environment. Northerners who buy Florida land for the purpose of developing it and perhaps also residing upon it should know about the possibilities of the land something about the climate of Florida, for it is not always winter in that state. Not all northerners find it pleasant to settle down to all the year round residence in Florida. Those who want to invest in Florida land will be wise if they take the pains to learn about the land they propose buying and the prospect for sound development of the region in which the land is situated. Much money has been made in Florida real estate during the past year or two and much more money will be made. But not all investments can have a rapid and rich turnover. Somebody finally will have to hold the sack. Look out that you are not one of them who does.—Fort Wayne Journal-Gazette. ♦ ♦ ♦ TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ From the Daily Democrat file ♦ ♦ Twenty year* ago thia day ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦A Letter from Miss Hattie Studabaker, written from Amsterdam.

Women Discard Hose And Teddies For Silk Tights In London, Eng. London, Aug. 11. —Fashionable wornmen have discarded conventional lingerie altogether and are sheathing themselves in silk tights which simultaneously supplant teddies and hose. In addition to the silken sheath, women conceal their forms with a summercy frock, and call it a costume. The mode may pass with the hot weather, although the heat cannot explain the adoption of tights, which actually are less cool than tile ordinary uuderthings. Women who have adopted the new vogue explain that tights interfere less with the lines of their bodies or frocks than do the more conventional garments. _ — Johnson Funeral To Be Held Wednesday Afternoon — ——— *.
