Hammond Editor Would Be Qualified National Delegate.

Mr. Percy A. Parry, editor of the Lake County Times, is being urged by his friends as a delegate to the Republican National Convention and it seems to us that he would in every respect make an excellent man for the place. Rensselaer and Jasper county people should have an especially good feeling toward Percy Parry and we believe they will express If by supporting his candidacy. Mr. Parry lived in Crown Point before he went to Hammond. He came here on several occasions a few years ago to report athletic events and he was always fair with local teams in his reports. He went to Hammond as the city editor of the Lake County Times at a period when Hammond had never had the distinction of having a real newspaper. He did not know the ropes of metropolitan journalism to a very great extent but he did know that eternal vigilance is the price of success and he applied himself to his business with all the energy and devotion within him. The Times grew from a puny, struggling daily to a great newspaper; it branched out to include not only Hammond but all Lake county and all the lake region. It secured live correspondents in every busy industrial center in the fast developing county and people learned to recognize that The Times was a true reflection of what was happening. That made The Times wanted in every home, made the read ers look forward to its coming, caused them to respect its opinions. Percy Parry soon proved that he was a newspaperman of talent and he proved that his talents were not limited to the news gathering field. He had become a force ih the presentation of issues of vital importance to the residents of the great territory his paper represented. He defended the right in all matters, he was always for national reforms, he was always against graft and immorality and he expressed himself fearlessly and forcefully, and he carried the “region” to a better plane of living. He was made the managing editor and for several years he has controlled the policy of’ the paper in every way, and The Times has continued to grow and Parry has kept his balance and no man in all Indiana has a greater influence with his clientele of readers. He is a republican at all times and. his paper has helped to carry Lake county for the republicans many times. Ernest Shortridge, clerk of Lake county, is a former Jasper county boy. He found Percy Parry’s support a great aid in his campaign. He is also a friend of Charley Daugherty and Henry Whittaker, former jasper county boys who are in politics in lake county and of Attorney Hodges, who as special prosecutor has been trying the Gary graft cases., This makes us nearer to hjm than we otherwise might be, and The Republican feels that the delegates to the district convention at Hammond cannot do better than to support Percy A. Parry for national delegate. Francis T. Hord, of Columbus, Ind., attorney general, of Indiana, from 1882 to 1886 and one of the state’s most prominent lawyers, jurists and politicians, died late Thursday night at the home of his son-in-law, Russell T. Byers, in Indianapolis. Death was due to bronchial pneumonia, from which he had been suffering ten days.

TO BREAK UP COLD

Some Advice That Will Save Time and Money. Strong drink and quinine may relieve a cold, but it usually does more harm than good. To break up a hard cold in either head or chest thousands are using this sensible treatment First of all look after your bowels; if they need attention use any reliable cathartic. Then pour a scant teaspoonful of HYOMEI into a bowl of, boiling water, oover the head and bowl with a ■ towel and breathe for 5 or 10 minutes the pleasant, soothing, healing vapor. ~ Do this before going to bed; your head will feel fine and clear and you’ll awake from a refreshing sleep minus a cold in the morning. For colds, coughs, catarrh, asthma and croup HYOMEI is guaranteed. A fifty cent bottle is all you need to break up a cold and this can be obtained at B. F. Fendig’s and druggists everywhere.

Man Born in Rensselaer Met Accidental Death In Alaska.

Delphi Herald. The body of Charles Shelley, who was accidentally killed February 29, while on a hunting expedition about four miles from Valdez, Alaska, arrived here Sunday morning over the Wabash railroad. The body arrived here from Seattle, Wash. - Mrs. John Lucas, sister of the deceased, has clippings from a number of papers printed in Alaska, all of which speak in glowing terms of her brothers, and all feel deeply the loss of one of their most highly respected citizens. . . ■ Mr. Shelley was born at Rensselaer, Ind., and was raised at the home of his uncle. Win. Shelley, his parents having died while he was a child. He was a giant in physique and was considered one of the strongest men who ever came to the north. Goodnatured, sociable and always ready to help others, he was a friend to all. He was an expert horseman and for some time was in the employ of the government as a packer, but had been engaged in prospecting since the possibilities of the Valdez district as a gold camp became known. He had considerable property. He is survived b a brother, who is thought to be somewhere in California, and a sister, Mrs. John Lucas, of this city. He was about 38 years of age. " Funeral services were held over the body by the order of Eagles of Alaska, of which organization Mr. Shelley had been a member for a number of years. All the business houses of Valdez were closed between the hours of 10 and 12 o’clock on the day of the funeral, that all might be given an opportunity to attend. Funeral services were held here Tuesday morning at 10 o’clock from the Methodist church. Interment in the Zion cemetery.

Reynolds and Do Began Hare Proven Great Crowd Bringers.

Earle Reynolds and Nellie Donegan are this week at the Grpheum theatre in Lincoln, Neb., and are the headliners for the week’s bill, just as they have been all around the western Orpheum circuit. They are playing to great crowds and at the Los Angeles house they brought out an average of 5,800 people a day. During the first 14 performances 40,600 people saw them and during the next 14 performances 43,000. They could have remained for a month more and played to increased business. In addition to their drawing power, the newspaper critics unanimously herald them as the two greatest dancing skaters in the world and their act Was regarded in California as one of the greatest feature novelties seen there in many years. They will ba 4ft Rensselaer in June and will give two or more shows at the Ellis Theatre. A copy of the Evening Standard and St James Gazette, of London, Eng- .» land, reached our table today. It was probably mailed by Frank E. Lewis before his return to America. The paper is oddly put up, consisting of 24 pages, each of four columns width, the colums being slightly wider thau those of American newspapers. The headings are of uneven size and the paper has a very unattractive appearance and would be unable to secure much business in competition with the great papers in New York, Chicago and our other large cities. The heading is crowded into a small space and advertising ears are on each upper confer. The one ■on the left advertises whisky and the one on the right cigarettes. The paper boasts a larger circfllation than any two other penny evening papers in London. The paper charges a shilling a line to record births, marriages and deaths. The paper does not accept display advertisements from merchants and does not handle classified advertising except for the rent or sale of real estate. It devotes several columns to “tape prices,” which is the heading given to the market quotations. All stock quotations are printed, both of the London stock exchange and the Paris bourse. The paper Is very Interesting and worth preserving. The funeral of James Leatherman was held at the late residence on Elm street yesterday afternoon, being conducted by Rev. Frank Fisher, of Mexico, Ind., who is the pastor of the church of the Brethren there. Mr. Leatherman was a member of this church and a personal friend of the minister who conducted the service Rev. Fisher was assisted by Rev. Winn, of the Christian church. Burial was made at Weston cemetery. The funeral was largely attended. Tijp following relatives from out of town were here: Mr. and Mrs. H. K. Payne, of Indianapolis; David Leatherman and family, of Wolcott; R. M. Hough, of Monon; Oscar Leatherman, of Delphi, and John Hollenbeck and wife, of Remington. An obituary will be printed in a day or so.
