POLICE COURT NEWS ——— The Jury in the Insanity Inquest Gives Verdict of Insanity. —— TWO ARRESTS MADE —— Policeman Melchi Arrests Two of the Sugar Beet Factory Workmen. The insanity inquest which was held at the jail Wednesday over the strange young man who has been confined since Sunday. resulted in the finding that he was insene [insane] and was re commended that he not be allowed his liberty. The action of the jury will have to be certified to the circuit court where further action will be taken. In the meantime the young man will have to be kept in jail awaiting the final disposition of his case. Night Policeman Melchi arrested two of the men engaged in work at the sugar beet factory Tuesday night on a charge of public intoxication. He found them on the street near the Boston store the first time and warned them to go home, but they came on to the interurban station, where they began accosting pedestrians and he arrested them. The first one arraigned this morning gave his name as Frank Schultz, and was probably fifty years old. He drew a dollar and costs upon making a plea of guilty, The next was Frank Keating, aged fifty one, who pleaded guilty at once and drew the same amount. Both of them applied to the contractors for bail, but as yet it has not been furnished them Schultz has been in the employ of Mr. Spear for twenty-nine years, according to his statements and Keating for twelve years. Schultz has a wife and ten children in Toledo and Keating has three children, his wife being dead. As the number of men increases in the work the night plice force will probably be strengthened from time to time. ————𝝾———— THE TESTER IS HERE. Coming like the wind, which bloweth where it listeth and we hear the sound thereof but cannot tell whence it cometh or where it goeth. so came into our midst the Representative of the state pure food inspectorship, who visited the various butchers bakers and grocery care-takers in disguise, and bought “samples" of this, that and the other, to make his tests and admonish them keeping to a strict observance of the law regarding the food stuffs. He has been working here on the quiet for several da?s. Decatur merchants are living pretty well up to the law and it is said few complaints, if any, can be made. CENSUS REPORT.

Tramp at John T. Myers Home Returned Second T‘,ne to Enter. Os the many ..mold stiries heard relative to tramps when they call i from door to door asking for something to eat, the boldnes sos one that; visited the John T. Myers home on I North Fourth street at 8:30 this morn-1 Ing, is most daring. Mrs. Myers had noticticed him at the next door neigh-: bor's, and not wishing to be bothered j with him just turned the key in the door, and paid no attention to him : To this action the tramp no doubt | caught sight of, as when he reached ; I the house he at once tried the door, j i but finding it locked he at once left, i i About fiften minutes later he again I returned and tried the same stunt over I I this time Mrs. Myers taking a differ- : ent source of driving him away by 'phoning. This he also heard and he at once made his get*away, and perhaps will never again call at the My-' ers home. ——,— _» | Danocrm Want Aos Pa”.

Samuel M Ra'ston. of Lebanon. Indiana. was born in Ohio. December 1. 1857. He came to Indiana with 'is parents in <865, and was reared on a farm in Owen county. As a boy he did all sorts of manual labor With the assistance of a fellow workman he sunk with his own hands the firs' coal shaft put down at Fontanet Afterwards he taught school and read law, taking up the practice of bis profession in 1886 He is public spirited and generous He is a man of strong convictions and steadfast to his devotion to the higher of life. He has never held office. except he was Presidential Elector in 188? 3 and a mernbeof the school board of Lebanon from August 1, IMS. to July 31. 1911 He holds that a citizen's ability to render public service does not depend upon his having an office. In a reecnt address he said “He is truly great who without ths aid of office, serves his countrymen to a great purpose. In truth, he who is not big enough thus to serve the people without office cannot be made big enough thus to serve them with office.'' Excerpts About Mr. Ralston. Judge John C. Rsbinson. of Spen cer, says: “It is a significant fact that, Mr. Ralston has never held an efficial position which might in any way contribute to enlarge his fame or add to his influence Whatever distinction I he has. has been won by his own per- i son al worth and efforts He has simply been a large man, zealously and unselfishly working in a large and wise way for a cause in which he was profoundly interested. • • • He is too big a man to be any man's man As well talk about Hendricks. McDon aid. Voorhees or Tnrpie being the tool of the scheming politicians or selfseeking cliques of their day. as to think of Mr. Ralston in that connection.'' Judge Thomas J. Terhune, of Lebanon. says: “If elected, he would be . the governor for the whole people and could be approached by any nan with an honest purpose.” Judge B. 3. Higgins, of Lebanon: 'While his impulses are warm and the dictates of his heart are generous, still he has that equipoise of temperment that forbids his yielding either to the i wild ravings of the vicious or the un lust demands of the mighty.” Judge Joseph A. Combs of the Clinton Circuit Court, at Frankfort: I “His past record has always been good.. His life is an open book and will speak for Itself. No man s’ands higher in this state than he. He is I one of our progressive citizens I believe he has the rights and interests of the people at heart He is a . "After lam gone.” be complained.

Carmichael, pastor of the First Presbyterian church. Lehanes “In the - hutch where he is an honored and active member, his ••otirieens and sympathetic treatment of ail classes ot people have served as a med»l. and as the teacher of the Men's Bible Class his sometimes unconventional, but ever practical and i virily ethical exposition, has been an ! inspiration " Father J.
