A committee of chain workers ~was in the. jcity Monday^morning from Maxwell and explained the strike of the link-beater boys, which was [([exclusively printed in this paper one day last week. The gentlemen say we were wrong" inone particular and that was the boys who .struck gave the lads who**remained at theirjwork^a^thrashig. This they say was a take as nothing of the curred. They said,
Dan Patch at the State Pair.
Every man, woman and child in the state of Indiana has heard of Dan Patch, 1:56, the world's champion pacer, that has been engaged'^to pace an exhibition mile at the State J' Fair on Wednesday, Sept. 13.
It is very fitting that this won derful speeder should be selected as the principal attraction for an Indiana State Fair, as he i, is an Indiana horse, notwithstanding that his present •j, M. 'W. Savage, of Min ilis, does not reside in the ier state. Mr. Savage purfd Dan Patch from Dap R. tier Jr., of Oxford, Indiana, bred and raised the fast «e. but no money could purase him from Mr. Savage. At time the sale was made by
Ir. Messner it was predicted i^^chat Dan Patch would be the
"world's champion pacer, and •. these predictions came true in a more sensational manner than was expected. .Dan Patch was foaled in 1896 on Mr. Messner's stock farm near Oxford, Indiana. He is by
Joe Patchen and his dam was Zelica by Wilkesberry and granddam Abdallah Belle, the dam of Colette, 2:19^. Dan ."" Patch's sire, Joe Patchen was by Patchen Wilkes, dam Josephine Young, 2:01^. Dan Patch showed remarkable speed when owned by Mr. Messner and Oy after being purchased by Mr. .Savage the latter had him P- especially prepared for speed and on October 26, 1904, at
Memphis he crowned all his ^efforts by pacing a mile in 1:56. A few days before that he paced a mile on the same track in 1:56*. 5^This is the horse so well known in Indiana in whom the people of the Hoosier state take such a great interest and which they will have a chance to see in action at the coming State Fair.
Strayed or Stolen
A three-year old light bay ^driving mare belonging to Henry Keasoner, mysteriously disappeared last night from Mrs. B.
F. Wilson's barn on W. South street. Whether the Ijorse was stolen or released from the barn and strayed is not known. -The Horse Thief Detective Co. has taken charge of the matter and 'snen are out looking- for the: ^orse.

CHURCH WINDOWS RUINED
South Side of Christian Church Attacked by Boys.
The beautiful and costly windows in the south side of the Christian church are all ruined the result of a bombardment of rocks from "niggershooters" in the hands of boys that have congregated from time to time along that side of the church building.
In one window thirty holes were found and the floor inside was covered with pebbles. The windows are colored ornamental glass placed there by different societies.
The names of some of the boys who did the shooting have been secured, but it is not the intention of the officers of the church to prosecute them but they hope to adjust the matter in a satisfactory manner as they feel the boys did not realize the damage they were doing. *,

YOUTH IS CONTAGIOUS-
And Yoting Wives, It Is Calmed, Rejuvenate Old Husbands.
"Strange statistics," said an insurance agent, "are collected in my business. 'I have found that the more times a man marries the younger in comparison with himself he wahts his wife to be. For instance, his tirst wife on the average is four years younger than he. His second is ten. His third is twenty or thirty. 'What do these statistics prove? Do they prove that as a man gains in years and experience he finds that it is best, for many reasons, to be almost as old as his wife's father, or do they only prove that as men approach old age they are more foolish than they were in youth? "Old X.. aged seventy, with a third wife of twenty-three, said on this head the other day: 'You can't, marry a girl too young. The younger she is the longer she'll keep her health and strength and beauty. Furthermore, the older you are the more respect she'll have for you. She'll reverence you and obey you as she would her own father or grandfather.' "Young wives rejuvenate old husbands," the insurance agent ended. "They make these old fellows dress younger, talk younger, act younger and feel younger. Youth is contagious. A young wife is believed to prolong an old husband's life. If a man of seventy Insured in my company should marry a girl of twenty, I'd consider him a better risk by 8 per cent than he bad been before."—Philadelphia Bulletin.
Four Nations.
Practical idealism takes with the German chiefly the form of devotion to duty. In the Russian it is a readiness to sacrifice everything to his inward feeling. In the Anglo-Saxon It is the staking of the whole person for a concrete, palpable and distinctly fixed purpose. In the Frenchman it is a general idea which carries him away to great deeds.—Baron F. von Wrangell in Contemporary Review.
Sncccai Easier Than Failure.
We say success is easier than failure that a man who makes a success in life works less, worries less and has an easier time generally than the man who makes a failure and spends his time in telling how he is smarter than other people, but that "luck" has been against him.—Atchison Globe.
