Democratic Committee Hires Woman | to Write “Slush” About Men Who Are After Jobs. ! Indianapolis, Ind., June 27.—The ! democratic State committee, it is announced, has employed a woman i newspaper writer tp prepare ‘ttaajture” antidcs about the democratic 'state candidates, It is presumed that she will endeavor to inform the voters of Indiana regarding the color of itheir hair, and their eyes, and the number of children they { have, and what they eat for breakfast, and something about their diversions.--j The democratic state committee S has not yet selected anyone to exf plain ito the voters of Indiana why , they have created new and exponj sive offices by the hundreds, why | they increased the state tax levy, and why the democratic tariff hill has demoralized the commercial and agricultural conditions of 'the count try. They have not yet chosen anyone to tell the laboring men of Indiana why employment is so scarce, and why thousands and thousands of working men have been thrown out oif employment, since the government of this country has passed from control oif the republican party.

The following suggestions for the treatment of Working horses in hot weather have been published by the New York Women’s League for Animal's: Load lightly and drive slowly. (Stop in the shade if possible. Water your horse as Often as possible. So long as a horse is working wateir in moderate quantities will not hurt him. But let him drink only a few swallows if he is going to stand stall. When he comes in after work, sponge off the harness marks and sweat, his eyes, his nose and mouth and the doick. Wash feet (but not his legs. If the thermometer is 75 degrees or higher wipe him all over with a wet sponlge. Use vinegar waiter if possible. Do not turn the hose on him. Saturday night .give a bran mash, cold; and add a tahfles'poonful of saltpetre. « Do not use a horaerhat, unless it is a oanopyitop hat. The ordin-. ary bell-shaped hat does more harm than good. A sponge on itop of the head, or even a cloth, is good if kept wet. Its dry it is worse than nothing. If the house is overcome by heat, get him into the shade, remove harness and bridle, wash out his mouth, sponge him all over, shower his Legs and give him four ounces of aromatic spirits of ammonia, or two ounces of .sweet spirits of nitre, in a pint of Water, or give him a pint of coffee, Warm. Cool his head at once, using cold Water, or, if necessary, chopped ice, wrapped te a cliotlh. If the horse is off his feed, try him with itwo quarts of oats mixed w(ith ibilan, and a little water; and add a little salt or sugar. Or give him oatmeal gruel or barley water to djtnik. Wlaltch your horse' Ilf he stops Sweating suddenly, or if he breathes short and quick, or if his ears droop, or if he isltands with his legs braced sideways, he is in danger otf heat or sunstroke and needs attention at once If it is so hot that the horse sweats In 'the Stable alt might, tie him outside. Unless he cools off during the night, he can not well Stand ithe .next day’s heat

GIFFORD BRANCH HAS ITS FIRST WRECK

Chicago Parties Enroute to Springer Ranch Delayed by Engine Going Into Ditch. NO ONE WAS INJURED. Accident Occurred at Lewistown— Heavy Engine Was Too Much for Track—Prospectors to the Springer Ranch on the V. J. Crisler & Co. Excursion Had an Experience Long to Be Remembered—Went 1 Balance of the Trip in Automobiles—Reporter Visited Springer Ranch Friday. The first wreck which. has occurred on the Gifford branch of the Momon since the latter company took charge of it, occurred at 12:45 o’clock today, Saturday, whet. the V. J. Crisitr & Co. special train from Chicago to the Springer ranch met with trouble at Lewiston. The Mo non road had sent a special coach and a heavy engine to 'MeCoydbuig to transport the excursionists /from Chicago to the scene oif the Springer ranch, north of Laura. The prospectors in charge of Attorney John S. Dunlap and the Chicago agent® for the Southern Investment and Sales Co,, went through Rensselaer on the 11:05 train. They transferred to the Gifford road at The train proceeded safely as far as Lewiston, when the rails spread and the big engine went into the ditch. The passengers were ia.ll shaken up some but none were injured to amount to anything. The coach was well filled.

It had been planned to stop for an hour at Newfltand to Show the prospective buyers the onions and other truck fields, now in a fine growth, and than to Show them that the land on the Springer ranch was the Same kind and could also raise onions, potatoes, pickles, cabbage, totaatoes and other vegetable crops' It was impossible for the train to proceed and arrangements were at once made to get automobiles to carry the prospectors on to the Springer ranch, Wfibre the sale was to take place. Whether the engine can be placed back on the track in time to make the return trip is vary doubtful and it is not improbable that the regular engine will have to be run down from Kersey and the excursionists Sent home toy thialt route A reporter for The Republican visited the Springer ranch Friday land found that the arrangements ifor the Sale otf the 10-acre plats ihad been nicely made. With the exception otf the headquarters farm, which is occupied iby R. E. Ramsey, and one or two Other improved partis, the land has been cut up initio 10 acre tracts in such manner that every tract facets a road. This was accomplished by dividing each section into quarters, with a road cult ithrough in each direction. There are then flotir tracts otf 10 acres eaclh on each side of the quarter, whale the inner tracts each have a frontage otf 330 feet on a road and extend back to the center of the quarter section or 1,320 feat. The descriptions Of the tracts are tacked up plainly and the price is marked on each description. The tracts of 10 acres each are offered at prices ranging (from SIOO to S2OO per acre The cheaper iland is partly sand and not so well located. It is recommended for chicken raising, aJso for potatoes, pickles, etc. The muck land is the highest priced, while some excellent black soil with some fine com growing on it, is priced at $l5O and $175. Experts Who have examined the soil say there is every reason that it will 'be worth SSOO per acre within a few years. Expert gardeners or men who have some ingenuity and a lot of industry can buy these lOaere tracts and do far batter on them than they can in Chicago. It is not expected to sell many otf the tracts the first day, but to create an interest and then to sell rapidly during the next few weeks. It Will prove very valuable to Rensselaer and to all otf Jasper county to have this land truckfarmled and aH should be boosters in the project. If the land finds a good sale it is probable that a small town will be started on the Gifford branch and given the name of Springer.

Autoist Fined for Collision With Motorcycle—May Appeal.

Goodte/nd Herald. Saturday, 13th, proved an unlucky date for George Kanrinekle. At about 10 o’clock that evening he, in company with- three friends, left Remington and started to Good land and when near the Frank Simonin place just east of town he met Hairy Loutz, who was going east on bis motorcycle. The latter claimed that there was only one light burning on the automobile and he naturally supposed it was another motorcycle, and for the time it/seams that in the effort otf both parties in trying to pass each other they became confused, and in the eoUftsion the motorcycle Was badly dams.r'ed. Lrnt Saturday Mr. Loutz swore out a warrant for the arrest of Kanrruokle and Wednesday the case was tried be- J fore a jury. Prosecuting Attorney Fred Longwall wa-: 1 there to represent the state and Jasper Guy represented the defendant. The folio wing men served on the jury: Fred Gilmon Chairman, Wm. Patrick, John Uflm, Wm. Burke, W. H. Dowell, Wm, McCurry, Ray Dowell, Chris. Goutscihe, George Amtdiff, Albert Verrdll, James iCullnon and .Jbhtn Jensen. Four boloOits were token before a verdict could be reached. The first stood 10 for conviction and 2 for acquittal; second, 11 for and 1 against, the third was the same and the fourth 12 for coviotion. A fine of $1 and costs was meted out, Which will amount to something over S2O. We learned that the defendant was going to take an appeal, because the verdict rendered gives the plaintiff grounds to bring on a damage suit to recover loss Ifor the damage done to his motorcycle which we were informed amounted to about S2O.

Large Traction Engines Damage Concrete Culverts.

Goodlaud Herald. Township Supt Louis A. Spaulding, of the Grainy township roads, inforanjs us that the large twenty and twenty-four ton rood engines received here this week by Evans, Van/Natha a/nd 00. are too large and heavy to travel over the cement bridges and culverts in the township. These large engines in passing aver the bridges are sure to loosen the eyebeams and /this greatly weakens them and in a few yearns they go down. Geo. Gilman, who is connected with the company, states that the bridges and culverts being built now are not re-Lnforced strong enough to stand the weight of the engines. The company is building several roads in this section and they have equipped themselves to handle the work as quick as possible. The large gnavd pit over in G/aJ'boa township is being equipped With the latest machinery to load the ten ton gravel cars hauled by the engines. When they complete the road building here they expect to do work in the northeastern part of the State and over in Illinois,where the great road building movement is under way? -

Cat Mothered Young Rat Along With Five Kittens.

Jud Adams was in from Barkley township a few days ago with a nature story that Is hard to beat A mother cot at his farm hod a family of five kittens. One morning when he went to look at them he found a stranger in the family. It was a young rat and It lay right in with the legitimate family of the Mine. He earried the rat away lor some distance and laid it dawn. The mother oat went after it and carried it back just as she would have carried any one of the kittens and deposited It in the nest with her family. Interested in the outcome of the case Mr. Adams again carried the rat away and again the mother went alter it. The rat was much smaller than /the kittens and still had its eyes closed. Finally it died, presumably because it /was unable to nurse the,mother, as it was rooted away by the kittens. Jud is unable to determine whether the mother cat could not tell the rat" from her family of kittens or was provident enough to undertake to raise the rat up to >lOll size in order to provide a Sunday dinner for her childaen later on.
