Four “Lifers” Had a Glimpse of World Overcome by Progress.

E. J. Fogarty, warden of the state prison, called to see Governor Marshall Thursday, and related a story of an automobile ride of ten miles iie recently gave to four inmates of the prison, whose aggregate terms of imprisonment thus far has been 105 years. One had served forty years, one thirty-five years, one seventeen years, and one thirteen years. All were “lifers’.’ ' The ride was from Michigan City to Laporte, where two of the prisoners saw for the first time trolley cars, automobiles and many of the signs of modern achievement hidden to in the .prison walls. So great was th? surprise of the prisoners, the warden said, that one or two of them utterly collapsed from nervous excitement. One of the prisoners was William E. Hinshaw, who is said to be in a precarious condition because of failing health.

Friday, September 8, was the silver wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. George Parker, and the occasion was remembered by 45 of their (riends and relatives, who gathered at their home about six o’clock with baskets of eatables and enjoyed a good supper. Mr. and Mrs. Parker received some beautiful silverware to remember the occasion by. The big motor truck of Mr. Mansfield that is working on the John P. Walter farm, has been hauling fertilizer from McCoysburg. They hauled three tons from McCoysburg to the Walter’s home in forty minutes. They sometimes use spikes in the drive wheels when the roads are slippery, but these proved very injurious to the rock road, so the last few loads they abandoned the rise of the spikes. The machine is a very powerful one and it travels easily with three tons.

An Unpleasant Subject That Nevertheless Needs Discussion.

Starke County Republican. A fishworm in your soup, a few maggots crawling about the meat plate, or a bullfrog sitting comfortably on top of a plate of warm biscuits would start a riot at your breakfast table, wouldn’t it? And yet the presence of either of these is no worse than that of the filthy little fly, whose presence some folks tolerate with no feelings of repulsion. Nothing Is more Repulsive than a maggot but the fly that buzzes so lovingly about the baby’s mouth is his twin brother, and a hundred times more dangerous. Flics are born in filth, feed on filth, and then with their hairy legs and bodies smeared with filth they enter your house and dangle their legs in the cream pitcher, thrust their proboscis into the sugar bowl or decorate the butter plate with a trail of slime from the garbage can. Nice clean subject to discuss, isn’t it? But the annihilation of the fly depends on the true conception of its nastiness, and the only object in saying these unpleasant things is to help make you hate the dirty little beast and join in the campaign against it.

CHASED HUSBAND FROM RUSSIA TO JASPER COUNTY.

Did Not Care for Him So Much As For Return of SBO6 She Had Sent Him From Foreign Land. A story of a woman's love turned to hatred and a determination to secure retribution for the injuries done to her, has just come to light here, where a woman’s six-year pursuit of her husband had its termination. A few days ago Lena Macherinski came to Rensselaer. She was a Russian Jewess about 40 years of age. She inquired about the Russian Jews in the Gifford region and learned that one of the men residing there was Jacob Kronfeld. She alleged that his name was not Jacob Kronfeld but Jacob Macherinski and that he was her husband. She told the following story: About seven years ago her husband left the little Russian village where they made their home and came to America. He wrote back fond letters and promised to send for her. Finally he wrote to her for money, stating that he saw a fine opportunity for investment. She sent him SBOO and he wrote to her, putting off her coming. Another year elapsed and then Tena Balrowski, a younger and much more attractive woman, suddenly left the little village, and Lena learned that she had gone to America and also that her husband had written and pursuaded Tena to come. Lena wrote to her husband but received no letters from him and finally her own letters were returned. She was convinced of his perfidy and determined to come to America and search for him. She arrived York three years ago and has been hunting for him ever since. She learned that he was going by the name of Jacob Kronfeld and that he had married Tena, but she could get no trace of him. Finally she came to Chicago and there she learned that Jacob was living at Lewiston, in Jasper county, Ind. Then she came to Rensselaer. She met Alex. Blitstein, who is a partner with Kronfeld. He heard her story and was convinced that his partner was her husband. But Jacob was not at home, so Lena returned to Chicago, first making arrangements here to be notified when Jacob Kronfeld returned. He came back Saturday and that night she called over long distance telephone and wanted to gei into communication with Jacob. She arranged to have him come to Chicago and this morning Squire S. C. Irwin received the following letter:

“This is to certify that I did accuse Mr. Jacob Kronfeld of being my husband, he being of the same name as my husband, but I have made a mistake and make this statement that he is not my husband. LENA MACHERINSKI.” David Blitstein and M. Stein signed the paper as witnesses. The statement was written on Blitstein s stationery in Stein’s hanwriting. The impression exists here by those who have been interested in the outcome of the affair that Lena received her SBOO with the condition that she exonerate Kronfeld, but, of course, this idea may be wrong. Lena, however, when here seemed much more anxious to recover her money than she did to recover her husband. Another theory is that Kronfeld did not appear before Lena for identification but had some other Russian taken before her, to keep up the deceit Kronfeld is a thrifty trader and does not spend very much time at his home at Lewistown, where his wife and two little children live. He sells cheap jewelry, mostly watches, and has good success. According to Alex. Blitstein he is a smooth salesman and Alex, said a few days ago, “Py Chimminy, Jake is a smood article; he vill sell you a vatch if you alreaty has two hanging on the vail.” Unless new' developments occur, thq romance is probably closed with Lena’s letter, which was sent to Irwin &- Irwin, who were acting as her attorneys.

George Tudor visited Lexillgton and Richmond, Ky., last week. He was born in the latter town and had not seen the place for thirteen years. He heard that Kentucky had gone dry and wanted to see how his old home town would be under such conditions. He found the town officers standing in on the deal and six or seven blind tigers with no effort at concealment. In some places he learned that you could get a big bottle of whiskey by leaving a half dollar on a stump. He found the depot lined with darkeys and asked one if there were any white people living there. They told him that if he would go up on the main street and wait around for a half hour or such a matter he might see one. He had a good time, but 13 years hai made a powerful change in the old home town and George came back to Rensselaer with a little tinge of disappointment to think that his old home was *so altered.

Employers of labor have until Sept. 15 to comply with the act of the 1911 legislature requiring the licensing of every person, firm or corporation employing five or more persons. Only a small number of the employers of the state, above 1,300, have paid the $1 fee for license. The state bureau of inspection has estimated that between 75,000 and 100,000 employers come within the provisions of the act. As there will be many thousands of licenses to be issued between this time and the middle of September, the bureau is expecting there will be considerable hustling in getting ont licenses, when the rush begins. A penalty of $25 is imposed for failure to obtain license.

A Dreadful Sight To H. J Barnum, of Freeville, N. Y., was the, fever sore that had plagued his life for years, in spite of many remedies he tried.
