By the way what ever became of that dollar corn that was being predicted for spring deliveries? It remains only for congress to appoint a committee to investigate the prediction of the ground-hog and adjourn. If the weather man don't thaw out during the next two weeks the baseball boys returning from the southland will have cases of shivers that should be acceptable alibis for any bum batting or pitching. The season is due to open two weeks from tomorrow. The slock market has slumped during the past week with about as much drop as experienced in several years and unless those who held margins , know the game and have plenty of financial support, the bumps arej severe. Its a hard way to make a ’ living any way. Every stockholder of the Adams County Agricultural Association should attend th e meeting next Monday night when a new board of directors to serve one year will be elected and plans made for proceeding with the duties necessary to take over Bellmont Park. A bright new coat of paint on the store front will do more to stimulate business than any one thing you can do. You like to see a business man ; look neat and you expect it. You have the same right to expect the business house to have an appearance of cleanliness and attractiveness that can only be secured by a fresh coat of paint. The merchants and manufacturers of the city are entering whole heartedly into the idea to hold a Spring! . Revue and Better Homes Exposition, a fine idea and one which has been carried and’ is being done in many . large and small cities. Indianapolis has one on, Detroit and Chicago have just closed, Goshen recently conducted a very successful one. Decatur can and will. The standpat press is frantically hunting for something that Jim Watson has done to off-set th e charges made by his opponent, Claris Adams, that all summed up—lts nothing. Why, yes he has, he's run for office ever since the mind of man runneth not back to. And that’s not all, he j will keep on running as long as he • has the breath to do so, because thats feis business. He's a professional | politician and knows the trade. Next Saturday is the final day tor j candidates to file their declarations ami then the big race Vill be on. In this county indications are that while | the democrats will have a spirited contest, the republicans will simply turn in a list of candidate who will be unopposed. The democratic voters should keep in mind that it is their duty to select the best ticket possible and that those who vote the ticket in the primary election are in honor bound to support the winners in the November election. Big Tim Murphy, boss of the "Gas House" gang in .Chicago, returned from three years in Leavenworth prison for his part in the Dearborn street mail holdup, was met by a hundred of his old gang who cheered him, kissed the girls aud his wife, stepped

into the big limousines which was in waiting and whisked away to his hotel. As long as they return heroes we are not getting far with the law enforcement ideas. If the high tariff is a cure for the troubles of the farm and factory, why not raise them to double where they are now and make everybody happy’ We are sure that even the democrats want gorfd times and if it can be brought about by so simple a remedy, by gum lets have it. It will take a rear or two more to convince the voters of America that the tariff is a joke so far as general prosperity is concerned, but they will finally get to it again, perhaps by 1928. According to newspaper reports Senator Joseph (’ravens, of Madison, will be a candidate for state chairman when the democratic central committee meets early in May to organize. There may be other candidates but there is only one Joe Cravens. He is a politician of experience and a fighting democrat who would perfect an organization if it can be ' made in the state.

Last night I heard a lady siug A classic bit and oldrm. Her voice, it did as clearly ring As though her throat were golden. She thrilled as only song birds can And set my heart a flutter. Said I unto my neighbor man. "No word I hear her utter. “Tra, la, la, la is all I get, If those are words. I doubt it. That song is very lovely, yet I'd like the truth about it.” He whispered low, "the lady pale A tender thought discloses. The song is of a nightingale Whose passion for a rose is. "The 4>ird pours out his love in song, But fails her heart to earry,

Coroner Finds Physician Died From Natural Causes Portland, Mar. 30. —Coroner Ara Badders conducted an inquest at Dunkirk Sunday into the death of Dr. J. S. Lytle 66, who died at his home there on East Center street, at 10:30 o’clock Saturday I night. The coroner’s report will be ’that the aged physician came to his [death from uraemic poisoning and not 'from poison taken with sqicidal intent, as had been suspected. Dr. Lytle had been under bond in the sum of $2,000 for his appearance . in the Blackford circuit court to face [charges of performing an illegal operation on Mrs. Marion Flatter, 25, ■ of Blackford county, who died of pcri- | tonitis last month. It vyas charged • in an affidavit filed in the Blackford [circuit court that on or about Feb- . ruary 7, last, he performed the operation in an attempt to commit abortion and that the operation was not ■ necessary to save the life of Mrs. Flatter. Dr. Lytle was arrested the .'first part of last week. He had been I critically ill since his arrest and Sat- | urday word from Ms bedside was to ; the effect that he was in a state of coma and that little hope was enter- ; tained for his recovery. Worry over the serious charge against him is be- ! lieved to have hastened his death. ■ He was born in Glasgow, Scotland, and graduated from the Edinburgh University. After coming to this country. he attended the classes in the University of Pennsylvania and graduated in that university. For a short time, he was an interne in the reform school at Morganza, Pa., and for a short time was in the drug, fcusiness in Canonsburg, Pa. He had •fqtitftt’feed medicine in Dunkirk SWthiffy-three years and was a me ii i be*: of fb>' Masonic lodge and I. O. Hhr „w i(Jpw .survives, with a daughter,•'Mrs- Susie Irvin. He had .

For she has loved a sunbeam long 1 And plans with him to marry. "The sorrow-stricken nightingale Up to the sky goes wimrthg, And dies"—so runs the Httle tale — “In great burst-of singing.” Then seeing what from m» was hid ’ I strangely learned to love it. And knowing what the lady did 1 1 caught the beauty of it. Thought I: perhaps in after years We'U find our doubts were treason. 1 Aud catch the beauty of our tears 1 When he have learned the reason. 1 Though sorrow fills us with despair And life is ne’er without it, We may see splendor everywhere When we know more about it. .
