The: democratic editorial associ j.tion which met at Maxinkuckee is oettins a severe roasting from the state press for its failure to definitely resolute, especially after t he editors' frantic eritieiamsof the Cleveland convention of republican clubs. That set of democratic resolutions is tiu* biggest piece of assminity of the age. The best piece of news a float these days is the report that bicycles, high grade ones at that, will next veer be sold for $)i0 apiece. The extraordinary demand for the wheels incidental to the craze is one tiling that has kept the prices out. of reach of common people, and the news that a syndicate of New Yorkers are combining to break prices will be gladly received everywhere. Hieycles at $100 are all out of proportion in price, and the cheap good bicycle will be in great demand.

Tt pays the merchant and business man to talk liberally to the public through the columns of The Ban^ek Times.

Notice to Tettohera. The law requiring the teaching of the nature of alcoholic drinks and narcotics, and their effects on : the human system, passed by the i last legislature, by the provisions | of that act, will lie in force from and after the 30th day of dune, i 1895. This law is mandatory and ! all applicants for teacher’s license ( after the above date, must be examined in this subject. Persons who have a, license in force before this date will not he required to take this examination until their license expires. Persons who are exempt from examination under the laws of 1889 93 will be required to take the examination in this subject before they begin teaching again. This law does not affect, in the least, the teachers who hold the state license or diplomas from the State normal school. State Superintendent Geeting recommends the following text books for use in teaching the subject: For the primary grades, “The House I Live In,” American Book Co; “Child’s Book of Health ” Ginn & Co., and fo” the advanced grades “Lessons in Hygiene.” D Appleton & Co; “How to Keep Well,” Ginn & Co; “Youth's Temj perance Manual,” American Book | Co., and “Alcohol and Hygiene.” Lodie K. Reed, Indianapolis. F. M. Lyon, Co. Supt. The New Laws. The governor’s proclamation putting the new laws into effect has been issued and we are now work ing under them. One important law is aimed at the sale of the 7-Vo- l fill 1 and it is thought will squelch the sale of that paper in cities and towns. The Nicholson bill will have but little etfect here at present. Greencastle lias a city ordinance, containing all the screen features of the Nicholson law and j it has been in force for years. It [does away with screens on holidays i and at ail legal hours. The pool j and billiard balls are silent, the ta- | hies covered up and the wine rooms are dosed tiijhter than ever known before. The Greencastle saloonists J will obey the law and await the court test of its constitutionality. I’Tom a I >«* in nor at ic Kxi-Iiaiikh. Crn wfoidHville Aorus News. Some of the editors who were loudest in denouncing Cleveland league republicans for cowardice in not declaring for sound money showed themselves bigger cowards at Maxinkuckee last week by not only refusing to endorse the present administration, but by declin ing to express themselves on the money question and that too when they had a big majority for sound money. It will now be in order for these men to sing a little low. \t li> *»( You.

* GRADUATE OF DEPAUW. lie W a PoHition on tli** Imlianapolis Police Force. Indiuuupolig Journal. A tall, red-faced young man, with the frame of an athlete,called at the otfice of the Board of Safety yesterday and asked for a blank application to membership on the police force. He was directed to the board’s otfice by the otficer at police headquarters, where he first applied. He did not look to be over twenty-two years of age, and he «as dressed in a neat-fitting cutaway coat, wore a white shirt and high collar, apparently having put on his best in which to make his appearance before police authorities. He was given a blank, as is customary. He was asked if he thought he could pass the strain of a mental examination, which is composed of questions in addition, subtraction and writing. The new applicant smiled and replied: “Y'es; I guess I ought to. 1 am a graduate of DePauw.” This answer created some surpriao, for it is seldom that a col lege graduate makes application for admission to the police force. There w as no doubt about him be-i ing able to pass the physical ex aminalion, and he said he was an old foot ball player, besides having drilled in one of the military companies of the university. He took his application blank and passed out of the otfice, and when those in the otfice were told who the young men w^s and what he wanted, some one remarked: “If that young man becomes a policeman, Mr. Powell can establish a high school for the men and have Latin and Greek lessons

given.”

A Good Appetite Is essential to good health,and for restoring and sharpening the desire for food there is nothing equal to Hood’s Sarsaparilla. “ For over 5 years I had dyspepsia, had no appetite and wiiat I did eat was with no relish. I had headaches 3 or 4 days a week, and an awful Tired Feeling When I went to bed 1 seldom had a good night’s rest. But I am glad to say Hood's Sarsaparilla has cured all my ills. I rest well at night, have a hearty appetite and can perform my household duties easily. I am glad to report the success of Hood’s Sarsaparilla.” Elnoua E. Thomas, Forestville, Md.
