Loeb and Leopold are both making good in the Joliet prison and each has been promoted if they had made the same effort before they decided • to kill for a thrill, they might have become useful and helpful citizens. The payroll of the General Electric plant here is over SII,OOO per week, according to the statements made by officials. Thats just one concern in the best town in the middle west. All the other plants here are going full time and some of them over and with the outlook for a good crop, general conditions should be prosperous here for the next year. Wasn't that a dandy rain? Just what we needed. Now if we can have u degree of heat just about ten or fifteen off of that of the past couple of weeks and clear skies from Tuesday to Friday, the big Northern Indiana Fair will surprise you. The tents, the stands, the stage, the shows and everything will be ready in another twenty-four hours. The program opens Tuesday evening and continues almost without a stop until Friday evening. The crew of the PN-9-1 seaplane had a thrilling nine-day experience and a wonderful rescue. For five days they went without food and after being without water for three days, manufactured some with a still carried in The ship, rigged up a radio and knew all the general news but could not send sufficient distance to secure aid. Every one of the crew has recovered and is ready for another trip. Their story sounds like a dime novel experience. Are you going to the fair? Os course you are. Everybody efso is and you will miss a lot of fun and entertainment, a chance to improve your knowledge of live stock, products of this county, machinery. You want to see the Purdue exhibit, the new automobiles, hear the music, see the free acts, the races and the mid- | way. Its only twp days’away. Mate . Tour plans now. The schools, the stores, the banks, the factories are ( planning to close so that employees t and employers can join the crowd.

Bill Kelly, of Robinson, Illinois, was arrested at the state fair yesterday that his actions might be inquired into. He was wearing five pair of trousers, his regular suit and two overcoats, though the thermometer was boiling over the nineties. He had over S3OO in silver and gold in his pockets and rattled like a worn out automobile when he walked. The pockets of his overcoats were filled with paper scraps which he shewed, declaring he did It to avoid tobacco and save money. Down there where they are so careful they think he shows signs of insanity. Yep. we'd rather think the indications pointed that way. aeg pj i 1 .=• The fast passenger train which wrecked Joseph Miller’s car at Berne yesterday morning, causing bin death, came near striking a car here and another at Berne.

E! RiyiAlNlfl curred before the watchmen were on duty and each day there are narrow escapes from similar accidents, all of whiclTmake every driver more careful. The time is coming when some kind of twenty-four hour watch service must be furnished, elevated tracks used or some plans made to avoid these terrible accidents. We believe the wig wag signal as proposed by the Nickel Plate would go a long ways towards eliminating them and that it should be given a try out. In the meantime you can't be too careful.

Much sympathy will go out to Carl C. Magee, editor of a newspaper at Albuquerque. N. M., who in the course of an assault made upon him shot and killed a bystander. The report of the encounter shows that Magee was acting in self-defense, the bullet meant for his adversary going astray. There have been few more courageous and effective fights made against corruption and gang rule in this country than that made by Magee in his effort to clean up New Mexico. Taking his life in his hands, he has used the powers of his newspaper to expose graft, to prove that the courts were dominated by unscrupulous men and that administration of justice in the state was a scandal and a disgrace. It was through Magee that Senator Walsh learned of the sudden prosperity of former Secretary of the Interior Fall, a disclosure which led to the Doheny "loan” and which furnished the clue that enabled Mr. Walsh to go to the bottom of the naval oil reserve deals. There has never been proper recognition of the service thus rendered the government and the people by Magee. He has pursued his course in defiance of repeated threats of death, of attack, of persecution in the courts and of imprisonment. It was in the course of a physical assault upon him by a judge whose arbitrary and dishonest practices he had exposed and denounced that Magee fired the bullet which killed an innocent man. But for the •result of his own efforts in arousing the people of New Mexico tn 'he debasement of their judicial tribunal. Magee might now have to fear summary treatment. Having succeeded in attracting attention of the wholb country to conditions which prevail in New Mexico and won to his support a large body of the public at home, there is reason to hope that he will now receive the consideration to which he is fairly entitled.—Baltimore Sun- — Q— f (Big Features Os ) RADIO Programs Today ?

Peace, unto this house. I pray, Keep terror and despair away; Shield it from evil and let sin Never find lodging room within. May never in these walls be heard The hateful or accusing word. Grant that its warm and mellow light May be to art a beacon bright, A flaming symbol that shall stir The beating pulse of him or her Who finds this door and seems to say. Here ends the trials ot the day.

PRAYER FOR THE HOME

Hold us together, gentle Lord. Who sit about this humble board May we be spared the cruel fate Os those whom hatreds seperate; Here let love bind us fast, that we May know the joys of unity. Lord, this humble house we'd keep Sweet with play and calm with sleep. Help us so that we may give Beauty to the lives we live. Let Thy love and let Thy grace Shine upon our dwelling place.
