DEMOCRATS AND BEVERIDGE There seems to be, on the part of many Republicans, a misunderstanding of the attitude assumed toward Senator Beveridge by many Indiana Democrats. Because the
course that Senator Beveridge is now taking has met with approval of many Democrats some persons have jumped to the conclusion that he will receive a considerable l>emocratic vote. This ia Quite far from probable. The Democrats admire the fight Beveridge Is making against the stand-pat element. They are delighted that he has had the nerve to come out against the Republican attitude of past campaigns and declare with the Democrats that the former principles of the Republican party were wrong. But he has not, by these acts, so won the allegiance of Democrats that they feel It necessary to vote for him. They would prefer Beveridge to Hemcnway, Watson or Durbin in the Senate, but would not prefer him to John W. Kern. Beveridge still lacks much of standing for the things the Democrats desire. He is atill a protectionist, though his views are constantly approaching more near to the Democratic ideal of free trade. He is also in favor of a ship subsidy bill, against which Democrats fight as another form of class legislation, even more iniquitous than the tariff He is not yet in favor of an income tax, in which the Democrats believe as a method equalizing taxation now ‘borne in undue proportion by the poor. In fact Mr Beveridge is just beginning to see the light, and is by no manner of means in the full sun shine. As yet there is considerable distance to go before be will deserve Democratic support. That he is making a game fight no one denies, but that he stands for truth as he sees it and not for graft as formerly is not sufficient cause for his return to the Senate by Democratic votes. If Republicans send him there the Democrats will be glad that it is no worse, but Democrats are for John W. Kern, a full fledged advocate of Democratic principles.

Needless Noise. The celebrated soprano wa-s In the middle of her solo when little Johnny said to his mother, referring to the conductor of the orchestra: Why does that man hit at the woman with his stick?’’ “He is not hitting at her,’’ replied his mother. "Keep quiet.” “Well, then, what is she hollerin’ so for?’’—Success.
“I don't believe you'd work if your life depended upon it,’’ snorted I he angry housewife. “And dat's where yer do me a great Injustice mum,’’ responded the tall tramp blandly. “If 1 could have conditions as I'd like dein, Td work all de time.’’ “And how is that?” ■'Why, I'd like to shovel snow down !u Florida and run a lawu mower up n 4laska, mum.
Man A Working Machine
No defective machine can turn out good work; the longer one tries to use it, while some serious obstacle Is clogging the wheels, the greater will be the damage it sufferers, and the more difficult it will be for a skilled mechanic to put it in running order. Health depends upon the human machine being kept In good mechannical order. As with piano and watch or any manmade machine so with the human body; it gets out of running order through the process of life and needs repairing. Adjustment Is the particular and special work of the experienced osteopath. Hie corrects the mecnanical disorder of the human machine, then disease cannot prevail. If you can’t eat, can’t digest, can't think, can’t sleep, can't work, can't rest; irritable and out of sorts, fractious and fly to pieces when the least thing goee wrong In your business, something is seriously wrong in your system. An enemy Is at work somewhere; it must be removed or it will wreck your health. The whole machinery of body and mindi are thrown out of gear and nothing short of a thorough course of skillful osteopathic treatment will put your anatomy Into correct adjustment, givng nature a chance to perform her proper functions, and build from simple food all parts of the body. That the Spaunburst Osteopaths are expert machinists and fix what is wrong is being demonstrated at their offices 117 South Jackson street, Greencastle, Tuesdays and Fridays. Ask those who have given their treatment a reasonable trial. They do not claim to perform miracles, aid Nature to health—that’s all.
FOOTOALL AN AMCHICAN ABUttE A* It has lplay«u of late years b« game hast baua football in name oaiv It has deganarateii into a ctm teat of beef and brutality with brutal ity and beef , Not that the feet have been utterly ucglected in the play. There is Hit story of a crack player who used hit to disable a prostrate opponent upon whose ankles he jumped as the teams went down with the ball President Eliot, of Harvard, de nuances football scathingly Professor Weatherly, of ihe Univer sity of Indiana, suggested steps “with a view to the ultimate abandon merit" of the game In its prevailing form. These are but two of many faculty expressions which were echoed by slu dents and observers and in conspic uous editorial columns, says the New York World. Besides being too rough the American game has become dull. President Eliot likened it to war and so it is as regards the intention to disable the enemy. But in point of spectacular effect war has all the advantage To a man up a tree much may ap pear of what is going on in a b.ittle. Only the keenest expert will compro bend the ins and outs of the mass plays on the gridiron.
OUR “ROTTEN” ARMY. The American soldier is a being quite past the German officer's corn prehension. Every little while some military German visits us, looks at our men swinging easily in campaign uni form through a drill, and returns to his own country with the report that the American army is nothing but a mob of tramps. Evidently the "Neue Preussiche Kreuzzeitung," an impor tant Berlin paper, has based upon such reports as these its announced opinion that the American army is “rotten Against this judgment the secretary of state saw fit to reply. He points out to the Germans that, in spite of its remoteness from tne Prussian stand ard. our aj my is really quite til for its purpose, which is to serve as a nucleus for our national defense. Wheth or we do well or ill, we have nothing that cau be truly called a standine army. It is our national purpose to do without one. But we have some sixty thousand regular soldiers who are nowhere excelled ip physique, in courage, or in individual resource.— Boston Post.
GIVING AWAY THE PATRIMONY. If a man had five hundred acres ot land, and five young sons, and emit . use but one hundred acres profitably, what, thing you. should he do with the four hundred unemployed acres Nat uially he should let it Me fallow until his sons were grown, says the New York Mail. That would be universal common sense; but the man would not do anything of the kind if he followed the example of Uncle Sam. He would go out on the highway and call in s rangers as many as he could find, and bid them take each a share of the untllled land until all was gone; and when his young sons came of age lie wou'd tell them to go out into the world an.i hustle for themselves Texas is taking steps to colonize 2.000 Japanese farmers in that State There Is no objection at all lo the Japanese: but sometimes, in the midst of this mad pressure to gel some one to come and live upon the little remaining arable land, it is impossible not to think of the unborn American boys and girls who are going to open their eyes on an America which has not a free acre left for them. THE FARMERS AUTOMOBILE. Time was when the farmer who had sold his wheat or his corn or his cattle well provided himself with a new patch on his pantaloons, put the bal ai.-e of the money in the bank, and let It go at i bat That time itas completely passed The American farmer is up to date He is not content with having a telephone in his dining room, a piano in his parlor and a steam plow m Ins machine shed it is necessary for him to have an automobile, says the New York Times. Nevertheless, the appearance of the automouile farmer fills us with a certain regret. If agriculture, too, is to be conducted hereafter on a basis of high speed and nervous tension, whence are we to derive the fund of repose and calm philosophy which '« requisite in the national character So long as farmers were slow and phlegmatic, it did nut matter so much if husiness men were hurried and nervous. The sources remained healthy. But If we are to have speed and rush at the very foundation, where shall we bring up? THE MARRYING HABIT. Has the stigmatization of race suicide been carried too far, the cam paign in behalf of matrimony been waged too strenuously? Disturbing itoubi arises as one reads of recent lavages of the mat tying habit. Scarce j a newspaper is is 'ed which does not j chronicle one or more cases of polyg smy or polyandry Plural wedlock, even as much as graft seems the crime characteristic of the time The finger of scorn can no longer be exclusively crooked at Utah, says the New York Post. It is obvious that measures should be taken for the protection of susceptible mature spinsters and widows, the particular prey of the bigamist Heretofore the chief effort has been tc guard the young, those not of., enough to know etter. freui matri moalai peril. But it sueais the oiaa? most in danger is composed not of the tuaher and the laexperfeneAd but of wumea well Into their ff>ar<li ur fiPMt deettdes- these that are reputed to asa "Where Is he?” when a poeedble mu.

A Palatial Pigsty. The Pennsylvania Legislature at the last session appropriated Ik.OOO for a 'sanitary pigsty ' at the Danville State Hospital for the In'-vne. T’ is palace for pigs which is now in process of construction will be heated by steam, lighted by electricity, and the occupants will be served with "cooked food.” They will not be allowed to wallow In the mire like common hogs, because there will be no mire. Every modern Improvement for cleansing, ventilating and regulating the temperature will be provided It will bo a two-story building, but the purpose of the upper floor Is not stated. Sleeping apartments and a bathroom would be in keeping with the place Roast pig from the state "sanitary pigsty' wilt be a choice delicacy, but it may be expensive. The Hagebrusher. The sagebrusher is the extreme manifestation of the Western spirit of restlessness, the love of moving about, the conviction that more money is to be made more easily somewhere else For years. Indeed, the West, with Its opening opportunities, haa been the lodestone for the restless spirits of the enitre country. The Kansan and Nebraska boom of the eighties, which crowded the semi-arld lands of those states with hopeful settlers and built up mushroom towns soon to succumb to a few disastrous crop failures, was one of the great Incentives to far western immigration. A large proportion of the settlers in many irrigated valleys have their memories of Kansas failures, rainless summers, and consuming mortgages, and weaklings often become floaters. First “Diving Dress.” It Is nearly a century since Adolph Siebe invented the first crude "div-ing-dress, ' which, after the manner of inventions, has been greatly improved upon since then To-day a diver can remain eight hours deep down under the ocean wttb as much comfort ss his brother workman at the surface. In this way the underworld of the sea has really been opened up, and on every hand has been compelled to give up Us drowned gold For ships carrying enormous guantltles of treasure—gold and silver and precious stones, Jealously stored In the bullion room are Just as liable to misfortune as their humbler sisters Made Rich by Ituinotorm. Jacob L. Thomason, of San Bernardino, Cal., has filed on placer claims revealed to him by a mlnature flood on the side of Mount San Bernardino. Thomason was pros peettng among the old Mexican placers near Hesperia when he was overtaken by a furious storm which forced him to seek shelter. After a quarter of an Inch of rain had fallen in less than one hour, throwing the canyons into roaring torrents, Thomason returned to his work When the water subsided he says he found scores of rich placer pockets and within a few hours panned out nearly ) 10,000 in gold.
Chief of the Flutes. Chief Winnemucca taught the Flutes very different lessons from ottier Indian chiefs; for example, to love peace and make constant effort to keep It; always to be kind one to another; always to tell the truth, and never to take fo- <ne’s self what belonged to another; t* treat old people with tender regard; to care for and help the helpless; to be affectionate in fumllle* and show real respect to woman, particularly to mothers; yet he and his Flutes bad no books, no writing, no chairs, no furniture, almost none of those common articles that make our houses sc comfortable.
Mason and Dixon's Line. The ‘ Mason and Dixon's Line,” the name gtven to the boundary line between Pennsylvania and Maryland, was run, with the exception of some twenty two miles, by Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon, two English mathematicians and surveyors, between November. 1763, and December, 1 767. During the excited debate In Congress, in 16 20, on the exclusion of slavery from Missouri, John Randolph made great use of the phrase, which was caught up by all the newspaper* of the country, and thus gained the celebrity it still holds FroiKwied Charity for City. A municipal Pasteur institute, whore victims of dogs or other animals whose bites produce rabies can be cared for at cost or at the city’s expense. Is proposed by a Chicago alderman. An Indian Legend. The Indians say that elephants are the remains of the “Fathers of Oxen.” who lived long ago when men were giants and the Great Spirit destroyed them all with his thunder bolts.
Consumption of Tallow. According to calculations by one of the best-lnformad candle manufacturers In Chicago, over 180,000,OOP poiindv of tallow are used every year for caLdle-maklug In AmaHca.
MOCK MARRIAGES. We are »orry to observe a revival at the social entertainment which floor ished some 10 years ago. and was known a* the “mock marriage.” 9or ry an institution which means so much to the nation should he travee tied in tins manner, and sorry then, are apparently a large number of per sous, who have hitherto given every evidence of sanity, who delight in suck an entertainment. When the "mock marriage" takes place under the auspices of a church society and for the benefit of charitj, it is especially objectionable. While the participators in the "mock marriage” are generally thoughtless merely, and without serious intention of casting ridicule upon the sacred Institution. they are aiding indirectly the cause of those carping critics, of whom George Bernard Shaw is a con spicuotts example, who profess to be Ueve the world has outgrown mar riage, but are unable to suggest a sat isfaetory substitute. Many assaults have been made upon marriage as an institution but, somehow or other. It seems to find favor still with the vast majority of persons. ,
AS TO "SOFT OUTLINES." A London journal complains that modern athleticism for women is de straying the "soft outlines'' which art* supposed to be so excellent a tiling in women—that is ruining all the "t'emi nine curves,” says the New York Sun Are health and strength and out-of door life doit*; that for girls in England? They may be, but they are not in America. Whatever other terribl 1 thing is happening to the “new woman" here, she is not becoming less beautiful in any physical way or shape. Quite the contrary. Time was when the typical American girl went abottt with a sorrowful stoop: when she was thin and flat-chested, sallow and angu lar. Is that the type of girl whom you may see today playing tennis in the park, or golfing on the links from Shinnecock to Coronado Beach, or rid ing horseback on every bridlepath? Certainly not. She may not abound in the “soft out lines" which are sup posedly dear to the masculine eye in England; but she is fresher, more erect, more beautiful, than her mother was in her girlhood.
RED TAPE STUPIDITY. This is the common experience of the b tsiness man who seeks iuforma lion from the statistical branches of the departmental service. Every time ho opens a franked envelope he begins to unwind a roll of red tape. When he reaches the end he frequently finds another roll of the same material carefully attached and concludes that it is a waste of time to do any further unwinding. The explanation of this condition of affairs, so annoying to the up-to-date merchant or manufacturer, lies in the atmosphere of ultra-con servatism that envelopes every Goveminent office. The rules and regulations today are those of the flrsc year of the department's existence plus all the subsequent annual addi tions. The newly installed department chief finds himself chin deep in rules before he has time to take a full breath His “grown-up-in-the-servico” subordinates insist strenuously tliet they have been in constant use for sixty years.—Business World.
NEITHER HUMANE NOR WISE. Before the Humane societies' con vention in Philadelphia a young woman argued earnestly to obtain sanction for a propaganda for the extinction of human beings "hopelessly” injured or 111. Some years ago a doctor urged a law to authorize the killing of the "hopelessly” insane. The young woman mentioned had been terribly impressed by the sufferings of a locomotive engineer pinned in a wreck until he died. These people who desire to kill the ‘'incurable'' by means of supposedly merciful anaesthesia are sincere, of course, but they are wrong “Thou shall not kill” was not restricted to human kind in good health. No man Is competent to say who is incurable. The experience of centuries brought forth the proverb. “While there is life there is hope," and a vast majority of old medical practitioners, the men who have the beet opportunities for observation along this line, will repeat the maxim and discourage mortal interference with the processes of nature.
ACCIDENTS ON RAILROADS. So many railway accidents have resulted from uonobservance of warning signals that a western road has placed expert oculists on the engines of its fast trains, preparatory to a re vision of the system for examining trainmen for defects in sight. A change in the present manner of din plajing lights and semaphore arms !s contemplated. An unusual number of accidents have occurred lately, and the railroads seem to have awakened to their responsibility to make travel' ing less dangerous. FOOTBALL FATALITIES. Mortuary statistics of football, as compiled by a New York newspaper, make gloomy reading. Forty-five deaths are said to have occurred in five years as the direct result of the mass play. The nature of the fatal injuries sustained is detailed with un pleasant accuracy. There is nothing In the statement that will surprise followers of the game, but It emphasises the necessity for radical re forms
