WHAT IS IT? State Guessing Contest as to Governor’s Name What Does Letter “J" SLnd for In Frank Manly’s Name is the Question of the Hour. Spacial Telegram To Ths democrat IndianßDOlia, June 3—There is not an otticial tn the Indiana rtste hnnse except- the governor, who knows wh.t Governor J. Frank Haniy a first name is. Nobody in the state house could even guess, on being asked what the "J" stand* for. The governor, on learning this, thought a state guessing •natch might be started on the propaition. He suggested this, with a laugh, and afterward de * clined to sav what the "J" stands for. The liklihood of it is, therefore, that those interested will likely remain in doubt. Os course there are biographies and biographies that name him John, James and Jacob, but the governor will not say which, if any, is correct Attorney General Miller guesses it James or Jim. He thought t her« could be no doubt but that James is right Nearly everybody else had it John. Even Fred Gem mert. the governor's private secretary, who is supp >sed to know everything about the governor and his affairs, does not know what the “J' stand- for in spite of the fact that the initial is made so prominent by the way the governor signs his name. One official guessed it Jerry and another Jake, but none seemed to fit just right. The governor was pleaded with and the in quirer was told to “guess." He guessed, and after having guessed out a whole stock of names that began, with “J" he gave it up. The governor merely said, "Guess again!” and ended the interview.

PAWNBROKERS. They Are, Bar* Bas »t Tbeae, tl,a Moul of (.eneeoalry. When a Now York policeman recently borrowed Jewelry of a pawnbroker on his Iwut to wear to a "party," the story led to much comment. In the opinion of the pawnbroker moat of the gossip was entirely uti< ailed for. “People are making a tremendous fuss about that little deal," lie said. “They Beam to think It one of the wonders of the ago for a pawnbroker to lend anything Itulesa he gets big Intere*t ou It. Pawnbrokers are really the sou) of generosity. I make loans every week Os course I don't let things out Indiscriminately. A fellow that can touch me for the use of nn umbrella or a diamond ring for the night has to be pretty well known as a square ehup who Is not going to run off with the go.rls There are it nutul er of su- b men around in this part of town, and when they stand in fleet! of some special convenience that I happen to t>e able to supply to them from my stock of unclaimed pledges I am glad to accommodate them. The stuff always comes back safe, accompanied by a little tip. so I don't lose anything by trusting my friends. “I have one woman on my list of borrowers. Rhe nnd her family have traded here for years. (Mie day she pawned her opera glasses and never got them out. and since then whenever she hns a chance to go to the piny she ask* for the loan of a pair of glasses. She is too good a customer to l-e refused a little favor like that, so of course gets them. In the capacity of a public t>enefacto» I have loaned overcoat*, gloves, walking sticks, rings nnd about everything else known to the masculine get-up Those loans are made to friends and reliable people only, nnd no graften need apply.”—New York Post.
