outlined to the State committee and candidates his organization plan for the coming campaign. "We can win the election during the next six weeks if we develop our organization down to the precinct,’ 1 [ Peters said. Peters proposed that Mrs. A. P. Flynn, of Logansport, State Vice chairman should select an executive committee of seven women to supervise campaign work among women and that executive committees of seven members be named for congressional districts and counties. A request that all State candidates, who also attended the meeting, hold themselves in readiness to devote all their time to the campaign beginning on Aug. 10 was made by Peters. Peters suggested the holding of six district meetings during August at the following cities: Laporte, Lafayette, Indianapolis, New Albany, Evansville and Fort Wayne. Announcement was made by Peters that Dick Heller, of Decatur will start immediately the work of organizing the first voters of Indiana as a representative of the state committee. The official first meeting of the campaign will be held at Salem, if the committee indorses the recommendation of Peters. He said that in past years Democrats had succeeded when they opened their fireworks on that city.
ed to uremic poi-oning this morning. The famous statesman who was known as the “Old Fox” of Italian politics, was eighty-six years old. At Ms bedside at the time of his death were his daughter, Mary, his sus-in-law and his family physician, Dr.
Chiaraviglo.
To the end he remained fully conscious. Just before passing on he jocularly remarked to his physician: “Do you known why I reach the age of 86? Because I always tried to avoid doctors.” He had strenusously resisted all efforts of those attending him to examine him thoroughly because he said he considered all attempts to combat death useless. More seriously, he later added to
his daughter:
“I am at peace. I am leaving no blunders nor anything compromising
behind me.”
For forty years, until eclipsed by the advent of Mussolini, Giolitti was always in the foreground of Italian politics. His long career was marked by much diversity.

BRAZIL, July 16.—Brazil’s last carnival for many moons and at least as long as the new license fees are fit, effect, folded its tents Saturday night and moved to Greencastle to entertain the summer students of DePauw University and other denizens on the banks of Big Walnut. But before the Snapp Bros., earn j ival got out of town its property was attached by Sheriff Tiffee in behalf of Fred Curl, who claims the| carnival management owes him $111.25 us his share of the profits! during the week. Curl made a eon tract with the carnival company for Its appearance here and then took the Red Men's tribe in on the deal by which the Red Men were to pay pait| of the cost of lighting and advertising and get a share of the receipts with Curl also taking a cut of the melon. For some reason the carnival’s stand here was not a financial | success and the carnival company claims it lost money while the Red Men say they are about $200 in the hole, but Curl says there is due him $111.25 and he wants his money. The manager put up a bond of $200 and will appear in Justice Gates’ court Friday morning to contest the claim. The carnival did a good business Saturday night hut the management claimed the action of the police in arresting operators of the gambling booths scared the people away. The Red Men say that the company’s advance man put out too many free tickets here and that this cut down
the receipts.

In Comedy, ‘‘Alex the Great” Youth’s conceit and its triumph
form the theme of a fast moving comedy of city life which opens an engagement at the Voncastle Theat-
er Wednesday.
Many a hiek has arrived in New York convinced that the city and the world in general were waiting to see him perform. Some have been disillusioned and beaten, others have suc-•-•eeded, but all have been razzed. There’s some high-powered razzing in this story, but it doesn’t stay onesided very long, and that is what makes it twice as funny as it might
otherwise be.
“Alex” is a Vermont farmer boy in the beginning. He is convinced life holds something for him besides feed ing cows. His city cousin has confidence in him, but her husband, a base ball manager, can’t visualize any. thing in Alex’s future except free meals. The action begins when Alex reaches the Grand Central station. It
