Games were played during the evening, the most amusing, one being some fancy "stunts." Pictures had been cut in pieces and each person had to find the group to which his piece belonged then each group had to preform an original stunt. The prize was awarded to the group comprised of Lowell Smart, Sheldon Cooper, Russell Comstock, Francis Grotf, Nelson Black, Elizabeth McCole and Freda Kirkpal.rich. They gave a mock divorce case between Nelson Black and Francis Groff, Nelson alleging cruel and inhumane treatment* as Francis was gone to her suffrage club all the time, and he had to cook the meals, and if he bGTned the meat, she threw it at him. The case was easily decided for the plantiff. Lowell Smart and Sheldon Cooper were the lawyers.

Refreshments of brick ice cream, tiabiscos and punch were served. Laura Anna Reed presided a tthe punch bowl. A harpist from Indianapolis played sweet music all the evening, accompanying Clias. Arnold, who sang two solos "The Rosary" and "When Love Is Mine."

When asked by his mother why he had not sold the rabbits, he said no one asked him what he had in the sack. How many of our merchants are like this little boy? They have plenty of goods for sale but fail to tell the people what is in the sack. If you expect to sell goods in this day and age, you must open your sack, and keep shouting the merits of your stock in trade.

FEIGNS SUICIDE AFTER CONVICTION

Earl Spain, Convicted Horse-thief Makes Sensational Attempt to Trick His Way From Jail.

From Friday's Daily.

Earl Spam, who was convicted yesterday, of stealing the horses of Wilbur Scott, and sentenced to from three to fifteen years in the penitentiary at Michigan City, I created quite a disturbance in the I county jail, Thursday evening.

About. 7:30 while passing through! the jail, Sheriff, Mack Warrum noticed that Spain appeared sick and seemed to be frothing at his mouth. Thinking that he had attempted suicide, Warum sent in haste for Dr. T. E. Lowe, who, when he arrived, could not make the prisoner speak, or even open his eyes. Suspecting that poison had been taken, he started to use the stomach pump, at which Spain Quickly "recovered" and began kicking and stricking rigid, and left.

Horace Boyd. William Thompson, Robert Reeves, John Hinchman and Edward Glascock, who had come in at the first call, rushed to the assistance of the shirifi. Although a small man, Spain put up a game fighi, and gave all six men plenty to think about. Getting Mr. Boyd's thumb in his mout-h. he bit until it was black and blue. When he had been conquered, he went into a mad fit, and it was necessary to tie his feet, and handcuff him to keep him from doing violence to himself, or others.

Upon investigation, a letter was found which he had written to his brother, saying that he had been convicted of a crime which he had not done and of which God knew he was innocent that, he had been wronged, and was going to commit suicide.

He continued in his mad fit- the greater part of the ni-'ht, screaming and cursing all the time. He was very weak this morning, with bruises on all parts of his body.

Sheriff Warm in and Horace Boyd took him to Michigan City this morning on the 5:18 car.

It is thought that he only expected one or two to rush in when he was seen to be sick, leaving the door unlocked in their hurry, at which time, he might escape. But when he saw the stomach pump, he changed his mind.

BONANO IS DIFFERENT

BONANO is different from any other table drink you ever used—and Better. This is the difference:

I. BONANO, properly brewed, is deliciously palatable, without the necessity of learning to like it, to those whose taste has not been injured by the tea and coffee drug.

II. BONANO has a body and a rich aroma and flavor. III. BONANO is a health drink because it contains nothing injurious and much real food value that is easily digested.

IV. BONANO may be used by anyone from childhood to old age, sick or well, and at any or all times, with nothing but beneficial effedts.

V. BONANO is economical—a 75c-cup can co^ls 25c, or one-third of one cent per cup. VI. BONANO is easily and quickly made, boil one minute.

VII. BONANO will not spoil. We guarantee its keeping qualities. VIII. BONANO is pure and clean, made from nothing but fruit under most sanitary conditions.

IX. BONANO is universally endorsed by physicians. BONANO is so absolutely different that it is good. Ask your grocer to supply you or send us a 2c &amp for sample. Give it a thoroughly fair trial and note the difference.
