X 1 ■■ The federal bureau of mines has gathered statistics which show that 568 persons have been killed in and about the coal mines of Indiana since 1896. In proportion to the number of men employed the fatalities in Indiana have been fewer than in othe rcoal mining states. The very serious sickness of pneumonia of the editor’s daughter, Ivah Healey, has prevented us from leaving her bedside today and any shortage of news is occasioned from that fact. Ivah came home sick Thursday noon from school and when a physician was called her temperature was 104. Friday she sank rapidly and all last night and today she has been in a critical condition. A. S. Kent, of Chicago, chief engineer of the Monon, was here today looking over the new track extension to the Hoosior Slide San 3 Co. pits, just finished by the Monon company.

First Pullman Car Was Run Over C. & A in 1857.

A Canute, Kano, paper describes the flout Pullman car: “Fifty-six years ago, J. L Barnes, of Chanute, Kans., was a conductor on the first Pullman car ever run. He made the trip between Bloomington, IIL, and Chicago, over the Chicago & Alton, on the night of Sept. L 1857, and one of his passengers was George M. Pullman. Mr. Barnes recalls that Mr. Pullman on the next morning was somewhat doubtful as to the ultimate success of his invention. Mr. Pullman is 78 years old, and it would probably be rather unfair to visit him with the punishment to which he is clearly entitled, but he told how he stood idly by and permitted the first Pullman porter in history to maltreat a passenger with a whisk broom and collect the original Pullman tip. He was a husky lad of twenty-two summers at that time and Ms muscles were-in good state of vigor, but he did not interfere. ‘The car was a remodeled day coach and there were built four compartments, eight berths, four upper and four lower. The people of Bloomington, little reckoning, that history was being made in their midst, did not eome down to the station to see the car, lighted by candles, move away in solitary grandeur, if such it might be called. “Mr. Barnes retired as division superintendent of the AtcMson, Topeka & Santa Fe in 1910, after a railroad service covering 56 -years.”

Farmers Near Brook Lose Stock Through Careless Shooting.

Brook Reporter. The farmers are getting sore at the hunters and well they may be, as Harry Garrick lost a horse as the result of a shot from an unknown hunter and last Friday a valuable bull belonging to Charles Montgomery was badly injured by some one using a shotgun. The hunting on the public highway in automobiles Is causing some uneasiness and as it is against the law it should be stopped. Who can tell after night just what the results of a shot may be where one may be walking on the side of the road out of range of the lights or the result of shooting into the fence where stock may be standing. The farmers are thoroughly aroused on this sport and an attempt will be made to arrest all those found shooting after night on the public highway.

Pocket Gas Struck at Depth of Eighty Feet.

Goodland Herald. While boring a well on the Wm, Alexander property in the west part of town H. H. Downing struck gas Tuesday at a depth of eighty feet. a match was applied and a steady blaze of about six feet high burned the remainder of the day. This, of course, caused a good deal of excitement and called to mind many similar instances in this neighborhood. Notwithstanding the fact that everyone here hoped that a regular gas well 'had been struck, it died down Wednesday morning and Mr. Downing resumed work on the well. * Following a custom that has not had a break for nineteen years, Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Newell and Mr. and Mrs. Henry Spitler took Thanksgiving dinner together.—Brook Reporter. Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, of New York, was re-elected president and Miss Jane Adams, of Chicago, was re-elected first vice president of the National Woman Suffrage association at its meeting in Washington, D. C., Thursday. Mrs. Joseph T. Bowen, of Chicago, was elected second auditor. In one day 97 hunting licenses were issued in Carroll county. Clinton county issued 101 in a single day. The activity in those places seems to indicate that Game Warden Kent was right when he said that there were probably a good many hunting in this county without the formality of getting a license. The United States won over Oar nada in a contest for the championship in the Clydesdale horse judging at the International stock show in Chicago Wednesday. In the afternoon and early evening it appeared that Canada would win, but when returns were all in Canada held but six points while the United States held seven. Josephine Moore was awarded SB,OOO by a jury Wednesday in (her suit against the city of Bloomington for an Injury to her face. She was hurt by a skyrocket used in a Fourth of July celebration which was conducted by the city. The jury decided the rocket had been fired by careless and inexperienced men who were employed by the city. Former Mayor Lew Shank, of Indianapolis, is going on the stage to fulfill the engagements made some months ago. An Indianapolis paper says that people generally think it is all right for Lew to get the money out of the sort of “jokes” he has been pulling tor nothing while serving as mayor. He will “open" at Kansas City and Is to get SSOO per week, real money.

A CHEMICAL FACTORY

The Chemloal Products of the Human Body. la the presence of the great nervous system physician* are now like prospector* in the Klondike region, A few fine nugget* hare already been collected which prove that they oome from rich vein* in the mnnntutn. around, and no one know* how soon some vein in them may be struck which, followed up, will yield much gold. A specimen of these golden additions to our knowledge i* the fact that, among many other things, the Sympathetic actually makes drugs, or true medicine, whose presence in the blood Is essential to life. One of these Us now sold over the counter like any other drug. The origin of it Is from a twig of the renal (kidney) sympathetic plexus becoming at a certain early stage of development rolled on itself like a ball of twine. In time it breaks off from its parent stem, and, being enclosed in a capsule, adheres to the top of the kidney as a separate gland called the adrenal gland. These adrenals add an internal secretion to the blood whose active principle has been found to be a definite chemical substance, only 1-800 of a grain of which will uncomfortably raise the pressure of. a man’s blood In all arteries of his bodyr This adrenalin, as it is called, is a new medicine with many valuable properties, but It is itself of such purely chemical composition that substances like it can now be made artificially, like artificial indigo. About two tablespoonfuls of a bitter salt like Epsom salts is daily manufactured by the liver, and then can be extracted from the bile. The bases of this salt, called taurin, was fifty-two years ago supposed by the eminent English chemist, Bence Jones, to’ be like a veritable animal quinine, because he found that the’ taurin of the guinea pig gave both all the different chemical reactions of quinine and its spectroscopic lines a* welL This substance, therefore, he regarded as our natural protective agent against invasions of the blood by micro-organisms. Since then this theory has been considerably modified by the discovery of numerous other drugs manufactured in the body which, because they can combine with acids and form salts, are called alkaloids, some of them, however, being powerful poisons. It is now, generally agreed among physiological chemists that we daily manufacture enough poison in our aillmentary canal to kill us before the day is over were It not that these poisons are neutralized by the liver and other organs before they can enter the blood and thus reach the brain and other vital parts of the nervous system.

Magic and Poison Rings.

The ring began when man thrust his finger through a hole in a pretty shell, and later learned to make rings of jet The ring is very magical. Lord Ruthven, who helped to kill Ricclo, gave Queen Mary a ring which was sovran against poison, and she generously replied with the present of her father’s wonderful jewelled dagger, of French work, no longer in existence. Whether Ruthven tooled with this magnificent weapon in the affair of Ricclo or used a cheaper article is uncertain. At all events, Mary based on the ring that was an antidote to poison a charge of sorcery against Ruthven. The Judges of Jeanne d’Arc regarded with much suspicion her little ring of base metal, a gift from her parents, inscribed with the sacred names Jesus Maria. It was usual to touch the relics of saints with rings; Jeanne d’Arc said that her ring had touched the body of St. Catherine, whether she meant of the actual saint or a relic of the saint, brought from Sinai to Flerbois. The ring might contain a relic, or, later, a miniature. I fear that I do not believe in the virtues or vices of poison rings. Our ancestors practically knew no poison but arsenic, and Carthaginian science can scarcely have enabled Hannibal to poison himself with a drug contained under the stone of a ring.

White Lettuce and Qreen Cabbage.

“There is a curious difference,” says a gentleman of St Louis who spent a large part of the year In England, “between the English and ourselves in the way of growing cabbage and lettuce for the table. With us the oabb&ge is encouraged to form a head, and when the leaves Bhow a disposition to spread the gardeners sometimes tie a string around the clump to make the leaves grow together. In England, on the other hand, the efforts of the growers are directed toward keeping cabbage green, arid they poll the. leaves apart so as to expose all portions to the light and give them a dark, rich color., “We like our lettuce green, but the English want theirs headed up and blanched, so as to have it as white as our cabbage, in other words, they simply reverse our practice, and Instead of white cabbage and green lettuce they like green cabbage and white lettuce. Of course it is only a matter of taste, but still the difference is rather carious."

flow Mary Stuart Looked.

How did that fascinating witch of all time, Mary Studrt, really look? Andrew Lang thinkb he knows. In the London Academy he says: "Mary was a tall, lithe beauty, with a bright pallor of complexion, very delicate, thin arched eyebrows, wide apart; a lofty brow, bright russet hair, red hasel eyes, long and narrow,, with heavy white eyelids, a subtle month with delicate curves, a beautiful eMa, and a rather long,

Interesting Items From The Kentland Enterprise.

William Smalley, driving the little Packard, collided with a rig driven by Charles Wildasin Friday evening and soipe damagfe resulted. Mr. and Mrs. W. O. Schanlaub had as their guests during the week Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Nicholson, of Merrillville, Ind., and Mr. and Mrs. F. S. Spalding and son, of Chicago. Mr. Spalding a brother of Mrs. Schanlaub. j) Superintendent Dieter turned on the water early Monday morning. Three days were required to make the repairs to the boiler, but the shutdown served to awaken in the people an appreciation of the splendid •water service the town has enjoyed since the new plant was installed. Amos Pennigton, living on the J. U. Wildasin farm east of town, captured an eagle Saturday, after crippling it with a load of shot. He brought it to Kentland and placed it on exhibition at the Hess pool room. The bird measured over six feet from tip to tip. It had been in that neighborhood for several weeks and was feeding on poultry and young pigs. The state accountants who investigated the books of the auditor and treasurer during the past two weeks, find, we are unofficially informed, that the county is indebted to Albert J. Schuh, former county treasurer, the sum of about S2OO. Mr. Schuh was found long in his accounts during his first year in office in the neighborhood of S4OO, but discrepancies in favor of the county during the three years following cut this amount about half. While this will be a nice Christmas present for Mr. Schuh, we fail to see where ,the county is to profit for the forty-five hundred dollars paid out to examiners. The official report of the examination will be filed with the county later.

F. Long. C Attica Bridge Company Does Poor Work in White County. Monticello Herald. In the auditor’s office may be seen a sample of some of the shabbiest bridge work ever brought to notice in this county. It is a crumbling piece of concrete flooring brought in from the Pike Creek bridge. The concrete was to be five inches thick, but the fragment on exhibition is not more than 2‘/ 2 inches at the thickest point and is much thinner in spots. The bridge was built Jast summer by the Attica Bridge Co., now of St. Louis. The commissioners will give them a chance to make good, and very likely with C. L. Bader’s experience fresh in mind, they will “hop to it.”

How to Bankrupt the Doctors. A prominent New York physician says, Ts it were not for the thin stockings and thin soled shoes worn by women the doctors would probably be bankrupt.” When you contract a cold do not wait for it to develop into pneumonia but treat it at once. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is intended especially for coughs and colds, and has won a wide reputation by its cares of these diseases. It is most effectual and is pleasant and safe to take.

Match It—Who Can Twenty years ago a gentleman in Rensselaer took out a Three Thousand 20 payinent life policy In the Northwestern Mutual. Herewith I give the settlement of this policy this week: Earnings $706.13 Cosh Value $1,445.73 Total Cash $2,151.86 Premium $90.36 for twenty years, $1,80720. This gentleman had $3,000 protection for twenty years, and the grand old Northwestern Mutual paid him back $31466 more than it cost him, or almost 4 1 /* per cent on his money invested. I have other instances equally good of settlements in this county recently made. If you want life insurance you are entitled to the best, and the Northwesterh has demonstrated time and again that It is the best company for the policy holder. A policy on you! life would be the finest present you could give your wife. I defy any company anywhere to show the above result This happened at home and right now. Do results actually shown appeal more than the wind of the agent? Remember, this company pays more dividends than any company, and every policy holder Is a booster. If you’re In. the Northwestern you are glad to say so. "It’s right If I write’ it’’ARTHUR TUTEUR, District Agent

Effect of Tariff Law.

Speaking of the effect of the new tariff law on the general welfare of this country, Mr: Wm. B. H. Dowse, a veteran New England manufacturer, says: After a study of the situation, based on a three months’ visit ths- - in the manufacturing centers of Great Britain, France and Germany, and an experience of 35 years in the production and distribution of goods on this side of the Atlantic, I assert that by the tariff reduction no benefit will oome in a general way to the consumer: the advantages will accrue to the foreign manufacturer and to the importers 'here. Both will make larger profits, and the sure result is that the millions of dollars that should be paid out. here for wages and raw material will be sent into foreign centers of industry to pay for pur increased imports. Already the Slackening of industry throughout the country is noted, ipills and factories are on short time and this great injury has been done to the business of the country and the welfare of our people without a particle of benefit, without any compensating advantages. They have reduced the opportunities for employment, but they have not reduced the cost of living, and when the country realizes how it has been trifled with and imposed upon, there will be a day of reckoning which will, I hope, postpone indefinitely any further steps toward Free Tirade.
