) NEW CLEMENCY I RULES ADOPTED — Superintendents And 1 rus- | tees Os Penal Institutions Adopt New Code ’l Indiana poll ■>, April 16. (U. "•) I’eiNons interested In Indiana prison .reform are wondering just what i effect the new code of rules adopted by the board of superintendents and trustees of Indiana penal institutions will have on the handling of clemency pleas. At a recent meeting of the board. • which takes up the affairs of the InIdiana Pardon Board, abolished by the last legislature, an entirely new ■ system of procedure was instituted. ■ 'which is puzzling those persons who are intereted in the matter, ■ Rule five of the code directs that 'There shall be no public hearing in any clemency case except upon re'quest of the board. Other rules declare that all pleas must be directly addressed to the governor; that no life termer may enter a request until after serving j fifteen years of his sentence and that no request can be made twice in the same year. Sociologists are wondering if the new rules will mean further crowding of the already overcrowded penal . institutions. I Statistics show that Indiana's penal population is almost as great as that of New York, both being over 5,000, although New York State has more than four times Indiana's population Prisoners of this state are distributed as follows: Pendleton reformatory 1,835; Michigan City 1,850; Indiana penal farm I, Women’s prison 300. Michigan City penitentiary is filled to capacity and at Pendleton prison- ' ers ars “doubled-up in cells” awaitI ing completion of a new cell block which is now under way. j Temporary dormitories are in use. . beds being placed in factory buildings. The policy of placing two men in one cell has been roundly scored by sociologists, as it contributes to I spread of disease and adds elements cf revolt. j During the last session of the pardon board, pleas for clemency were almost unanimously denied. Before that time, however, many prisoners considered reformed were given a chance. i Should the number of deserving cases be cut down under the new regime, crowding will become almost unbearable, it is predicted. o COURT HOUSE Damage Suits Filed Two suits for damages, in which total judgment of $1,200 is asked, were filed in the circuit court today I by Fred Rockstroh, of Willshire, 0., against Charles Hite, of Decatur, as : tile l,'-ui. TA ,uu' aui'A'iiiobiii-' .'icj iu.'-'iiT I whu h occurred at the intersection of Madison and Fourth streets in this city, on the morning of Sunday, March 13. last. Mr. Rockstroh asks judgment for SI,OOO for personal iu- ' juries and S2OO for damages to his .' automobile. The plaintiff alleges that he was driving his car east on Madison street and the defendant was going south on Fourth strfeet at ■ tiie time of the collission. The com- ! plaint states that the defendant was i traveling at a fast rate of speed and 1 to the left of the center of the street. ' Many automobiles were parked on both streets, since the Catholic church ; is located at that corner, and the view < of the drivers was somewhat obstruct--1 ed. The defendant alleges that the i Hite car struck his car and hurled it ■against a pole, throwing him out of 1 his seat and permanently disabling i him. Attorney H. M. DeVoss is coun- ( sei for the plaintiff. I Suit On Account | A suit on an account, in which • judgment for $1,130 and costs is dei nianded has been filed in the circuit court by Everett and Hite company I against Owen S. Davis. Attorneys C. J. Lutz and E. B. Adams represent , the plaintiff. Marriage Licenses , Cecil Franklin, employe of General Electric Co., to Lina Marie Rayl, both of Decatur. Clark Funk, saw mill worker, to ” Emma Dick, both of Adams county. i Demurrer Overruled II A demurrer to the complaint in the e 1 case ot the American Engineering .'Company vs. Dick Burug was overruled by the court. Demurrer Sustained ‘ | A demurrer in the case of Smith, - Yager & Falk vs. the Holland-St. n Louis Sugar company was sustained by the court. i. j Muncie — Although police probably spoiled a Christmas eve jollification last December 24 when they confiscatil ed half a gallon of white mule at the • home of Tod Bradburn, the latter was 1 acquitted Wednesday on a charge of s violating the liquor law.

Cal., (United Press) The advent of .utotnobiles has enhanced the business of Fred M. Brttsehi, veteran blacksmith of the National Park service here, who has fitted more tjan 40,000 shoes on horse's hoofs in the past 20 years. “Automobiles are bringing more people to tills park every year. That means increased patrolling by the park rangers on horses, which means more business for me,” Brusclil explained today. “The style of horseshoes is the same today as it was 20 years ago,” he said “I have sold horses for Indians, soldiers, cowboys and rangers and no one ever questioned the style of the shoes.” o | Huntington—D. R. Rupert has invented a spring stop which takes the place of window sash eords and weights. o_ ( A Glass of Salts Clears Pimply Skin Says Indigestion Results from an Excess of Hydrochloric Acid. Undigested food delayed in the stomach decays, or rather ferments, the same as food left in the open air, says a noted authority. He also tells us that Indigestion is caused by Hyperacidity meaning there is an excess of hydrochloric acid in the stomach which prevents complete digestion and starts food fermentation. Thus everything eaten sours in the stomach much like garbage sours in a can, forming acrid fluids and gases which inflate the stomach like a toy balloon. Then we feel a heavy, lumpy misery in the chest; we belch up gas; we eructate sour food or have heartburn,- flatulence, water-brash or nausea. He tells ns to lay aside all digestive aids and instead get from any pharmacy four ounces' of Jad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast and drink it while it is effervescing, and furthermore, to continue this for a week. While relief often follows the first dose, ft is important to help neutralize the acidity, remove the gas-mak-ihg mass, start the liver, stimulate the kidneys and thus promote a free flow of pure digestive juices. Jad Salts is inexpensive, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and sodium phospliate. This harmless salts is used for many stomach disorders with excellent results.
