By the will of Captain Aaron Dukes a $25,000 hospital with a SIO,OOO endowment is left to Peru. The sum of $70,000 is divided among relatives and friends, and the widow receives the remainder of the property, valued at $150,000. Jones Ludlum, Grant county assessor, who mysteriously disappeared a week ago, has just as mysteriously returned to Marion. He offered no explanation for going away without a coat and without telling his family.

Income Tax Ratification Impośible Until Later
Although New York by the action of the assembly Wednesday swung into the list of sixteen states that have ratified the proposed federal income tax and brought the total up to thirty-' one, tabulation shows that the necessary thirty-five or three-fourths vote of the states is out of the question this year. Fifteen states have either defeated the amendment in one or both houses, have adjourned without taking action, or, having indorsed the measure in one branch, have gone into adjournment with the other branch unrecorded. * This accounts collectively for all forty-six states to date.
Eliminating Arkansas, whose governor has raised a constitutional question by vetoing the indorsement of the amendment by both branches of the state's legislature, only thirty votes in favor of the proposal remain. Thus it is obvious that further progress must await the convening of new legislatures. The fifteen states which have failed to indorse the amendment either because of adverse action or by inactive adjournment are: Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Utah, Rhode Island, Virginia, Vermont, West Virginia, Wyoming. Those which .have indorsed the amendment are: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, lowa, Indiana, Kentucky, Kansas, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Mississippi, Montana, New York, Nevada, North Carolina, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, Wisconsin.
Lafayette Paper Has the Proper Spirit of Party Harmony.
Lafayette Journal. The Journal is in receipt of a postal card from the South Bend Tribune which seeks an expression concerning the republican nomination for governor of Indiana. The Tribune wants to know the Journal’s first choice, its second choice and its third choice. Evidently a poll is being taken of Indiana newspapers. The Tribune gives the assurance that the name of the paper will not be published without permission. The Journal has no reason for concealing its reply. The Journal’s first choice for governor is Senator Will R. Wood, who has served his party long and faithfully. The Journal's second choice is Senator Will R. Wood. The Journal’s thin choice is Senator Will R. Wood. And then if Senator Wood can’t be nominated the Journal favors and will support any full-blooded republican who is not ashamed of his party and who has no apology to offer for the achieve ments of the party. There Is a long list of available candidates. James E. Watson, James Hemenway, Colonel Durbin, Charles Bookwaiter, W. L. Taylor, Harry S. New and James Goodrich might be mentioned among those who have served the party and state and anyone of them, or any other good republican who believes the party is marching forward, would be acceptable. But the nomination of a republican candidate for governor rests with the republicans of the state; their first choice shall be the Journal’s first choice. Unlike the self-annointed the Journal is willing to abide by the decision of the party. L
Washington Dispatch Mentions Janies P. Goodrich for Governor.
The republicans of Indiana should have no trouble in uniting on a good candidate for governor and they should have no trouble in electing him. A Washington dispatch mentions James P. Goodrich for the nomination. Mr. Goodrich was formerly the state chairman and is a man of marked business ability, and probably the best organizer in the state. He would make a fine standard bearer and command the highest respect of the voters of the state. Hugh Miller, of Columbus, a high class man of ability and integrity, would be a splendid candidate also. W. L. Taylor, of Indianapolis, will doubtless be a candidate and might prove the best vote getter in the state. He is well known, stands well with labor, and is a politician with great vote-getting ability, also a good lawyer, a good business man and a great campaigner.

The defendant is supposed to be in Michigan.
Weather Bureau Chief Explains Long Heat Wave.
Chief Willis L. Moore, of the government weather bureau at Washington has issued a signed statement explaining the cause for the hot wave of the past ten days and telling why he befieves more or less permanent relief is at hand. “For a prolonged period,” says the chief, “the barometric pressure has been above normal over the Atlantic Ocean and low over the northwestern portion of the American continent. The international weather map of Wednesday showed a reversal of this pressure distribution—an extensive area of high barometric pressure appearing over Alaska, while the pressure over the middle latitudes of the Atlantic Ocean has fallen to below normal. This changed pressure distribution is strong, indicative of the dissipation of the warm weather over the Eastern states and jn the middle West in the immediate future, and a period of moderate temperature in these districts lasting through the remainder of this week and continuing into next week.” Lower temperatures were reported from almost all points Wednesday.
Recalls Cherry Feast of Union Soldiers Forty-Nine Years Ago.
Lowell Tribune. .. Forty-nine years ago last Monday, we marched across the Blue Ridge, from Luray to Sperryville, Va. The day was about as hot as it was Monday. There were bushels of fine ripe cherries all along the entire day’s march and the boys had a fine feast. They would climb to the tops of the trees, which were quite tall, and with their hatchets, trim as they came down. Every man in that vast army had a branch of ripe, lucious cherries. It looked like a moving forest. The boys couldn’t tell a lie, but they knew how to trim a cherry tree full of ripe fruit. We venture to say that the farmers in that section didn’t 'need to prune their cherry trees for some years after that army passed that way.
Newton County Farm Barn Destroyed by Fire Tuesday..
Another fire caused by lightning and not reported in the general storm article in Wednesday’s Evening Republican, occurred Tuesday afternoon. Lightning struck a barn on the Lou Bowers* farm, 9 miles southwest of Rensselaer, in Iroquois township, Newton county, and the flames thus started consumed the barn along with his newly harvested crop of hay and several articles of horse equipment. Three horses were rescued. The barn was valued at 1500. The name of the tenant on the farm was not learned. The farm now belongs to Jack

The state board of health is doing all it can to combat the spread of infantile paralysis, known in the medical worYd as anterior poliomylitis, and the county health officers have been sent circulars with instructions to impart the information contained to all doctors within the county. It seems almost assured that the germ that produces the disease is carried in the dust and the doctors are urged to create a sentiment against dust. The eating of candy in the street is discouraged, while the “all day suckers” which the children frequently eat are considered especially dangerous because they attract the dust and retain it until the child again inserts the sucker in its mouth. Manure dust is believed to be the particular harboring place of the germ that causes infantile paralysis and the physicians and newspapers are urged to create a feeling among the people against eating anything that is sold on the streets and not properly covered so as to prevent an accumulation of dust Serum treatments have thus far proved unavailing and the board advises complete rest as the most essential thing in treatment. New discoveries will be communicated to all physicians through the office of the county secretaries.
That a. local option election in which the voters express a desire to have licensed saloons is not sufficient to keep a unit wet for two years, despite a blanket remonstrance, was the decision handed down by the Madison county commissioners in dealing with a remonstrance for Union township, in which Chesterfield is located. Attorney Fred Van Nuys had filed a plea to have the remonstrance abated on the ground that a local option election had settled the matter in Union township for the ensuing t.wo years.
Deputies from the office of State Geologist Edward Barrett have completed the work of surveying the Mississinewa and Eel rivers for water power sites.

Grover, of FL Wayne, has been appointed an assistant examiner in the patent office on the recommendation of Chairman Lee, of the Indiana republican committee. Dr. W. T.

All large denomination silver certificates are being destroyed as they reach the treasury and |1 bills are being Issued in their stead. If that does not supply the"* demand, the treasury is ready to issue $1 greenbacks, though this will be done ohlr in an emergency. C. M. Wiener, of FL Wayne, secretary of the National Onion Growers" association, who has just returned from a trip through the Whitley-Noble-Kosciusko county territory, where the onion is king of crops, says that despite unfavorable weather the crop in northern Indiana this year is going to be very fair. The acreage is large and the yield is good. It takes just as long to descend the cistern of total depravity as it does to attain the summit of exalted virtue.
