BURIAL IS MADE IN WESTON CEMETERY.

The ashes of the cremated body of Jay W. Dwiggins, who died in California a short time ago, notice of which appeared in The Republican, were interred in the Weston cemetery last / Thursday. This is probably the first burial of a cremated body in this cemetery. The ashes were in an urn and the urn was enclosed in a box. Interment was made’ln the Dwiggins lot. Just because you get the Willard end of some deal up town, don’t go home and play Dempsey on the family. ■ Today is the day set aside by the R. H. S. to take the sport out of Logansport. It looks like rain. You’re a damp fool not to take an umbrella. This will be the fourth straight victory for the local team which is going straight through their schedule without a loss. They have that driving power that simply cannot be stopped. ’ I’d rather tackle an opened up Essex.—HUGH KIRK.

THE EVENING REPUBLICAN, RENSSELAER, IND.

WASHINGTON NEWS IN BRIEF.

Washington, D. C., Oct. 23. The senate railroad reorganization bill, the most important economic measure that has confronted congress in a decade, was reported to the upper branch today, together with an appeal from Director General Hines that action be taken as soon as possible, as the president wants to turn the roads back to their owners by January 1. Senator Cummins, explaining this measure, which is of vital consequence to the cost of living and readjustment of labor, industrial and financial conditions, says that it purposes nothing less than to organize together in one gigantic unity* under effective federal control, all the instrumentalities of river, canal, rail, and ocean transportation and to subject them to a single federal administrative authority. President Wilson, informed in his -sick room of the blowup in the industrial conference, urged the public group not to desert the wreckage and to try and formulate an industrial peace program. The public group, therefore, after Secretary Lane had declared the main conference adjourned, met and appointed a committee to prepare a program and to determine the scope of an inquiry which is to be made into industrial conditions and ameliorative measures. The committee will meet here tomorrow. —o — A system of registration of aliens under the direction of school boards and the payment of a small fee to go into a fund for educational and Americanization purposes was advacated by Raymond Crist, director of citizenship of the bureau of naturalization of the labor department, before the house immigration committee. ~ . —o — The. state department began to take real interest in the abduction of William O. Jenkins, American consular agent at Puebla, Mexico, who is being held for ransom by bandits. Strong representations were made to Carranza, who, Mexico City reports say, has sent instructions to do —everything possible to release Jenkins. The foreign relations committee of the senate has put more teeth into its protection program in the interest of American rights, having added four reservations to the peace treaty, making fourteen reservations in all. Senator Hitchcock said the treaty would be rejected by administratin' forces if these all-embracing reservattions are adopted. - of State Polk cabled the state ‘ department that the peace conferees at Paris have been very busy on the Adriatic dispute, and it was asserted in responsible quarters that great progress is being made toward st settlement of the Fiume issue, through a compromise which will be acceptable both to Italy and President Wilson.

CAMOUFLAGED DOUGHNUTS.

Fall styles of pies, cakes and doughnuts were on display yesterday; at the annual convention of the National Bakers’ association at Chicago. The new doughnut showed a distinctive departure from that food preparation around which so many quips and comparisons have been built. There was no hole; instead, according to the bakers, the inside of the doughnut is taken up with filling intended to add nutrition to the old-style fried cake. The bakers yesterday predicted a return of war bread, with substitution of potato flour for wheat flour and numerous substitutions to save sugar and eggs.
