SUFFMGE MEH6URE WINS IN ILLINOIS

Great Sucker State First One East of Mississippi to Grant Woman the Right to Vote.

Illinois has taken the lead of the great states lying east fo the Mississippi River to grant suffrage to women. The vote in the House was 83|to 58. The Senate had already pissed the bill. Governor Dunne says he will very gladly sign the bill, as he has for years been in favor of woman suffrage. He signs the bill notwithstanding it was not in the Democratic platform. The facts are, the Democrats are putting a good many things into law upon which their platform was silent, or even on the other side. In Indiana, for instance, the Democratic state convention voted down in committee a plank favoring a public utility law. Yet, after the election, under pressure of public opinion all over the state in favor of such a law, it was passed. The Democrats did not want to do so, but were compelled to do so. The party will be wise if it can read the hand-writing on the wall, interpret! it correctly, and then enact it into law. If the party does not do so, its lease on official life will be very short. They are already falling down all along the line.

There are now ten states that have fallen into line on the universal suffrage movement that is sweeping this country, the leader in all things, and agitating the world. The ten states that now have suffrage are Wyoming, Colorado, Idaho, Washington, Kansas, Oregon, California, Arizona, Utah and Illinois. The great movement goes marching on. Ohio and Michigan came very near joining the ranks, and other states are wabbling in the balance. —Shelbyville Republican.

Dr. John R. Moore and John Davis Visit the Hoosier Poet At His Home in Indianapolis.

While James Whitcomb Riley was over here during the Riley day exercises last fall, he extended an invitation to his old friends, Dr. John R. Moore and John (Durbin) Davis, to visit him at his city home. After many delays and postponements, they were together Monday, renewing their friendship and talking over the old times, and of the friends of yesterday.

A most enjoyable time was spent by all three. Mr. Riley spent most of his time asking about friends with whom he used to be intimate, and inquiring of their success. The afternoon was spent in motoring over the boulevards of North Indianapolis, Mr. Riley laughing until tears stood in his eyes about some of the old tricks, and jokes of their boyhood days.

The above picture of John (Durbin) Davis, showing him as when he played in the "Old Band" with "Jim" Riley, is published through the courtesy of Beamer L^vis, who is back of the movement for the Riley monument. He is meeting with splendid success in his work, and has received hundreds of testimonial letters from pleased school teachers, who have undertaken this work.

H1NSHAW WANTS OUT

Former Minister Seeking a Parole From Prison.

It is said that renewed efforts will be made at the June meeting of tiie Indiana Board of Pardons to secure a pardon or parole for Wm. E. Hinshaw, preacher, convicted of wife murder, whose case probably attracted more attention than that of any man ever convicted in Indiana.

Hinshaw, who was a preacher, is alleged to have killed his wife and was at one time paroled, following his sentence to life.

Hinshaw has always protested his innocence and has declared he could go to his death with the protestation that his wife was murdered by a burglar, and in the fight for whose life he received seventeen wounds, bullet and knife thrusts, though the State contended that they were self-inflicted. His case attracted nation-wide attention, people high in life taking an interest in the case.

FLAG DAY—JUNE 14

When Freedom, from her mountain height, Unfurled her standard to the air, She tore the azure robe of night, And set the stars of glory there: She mingled with its gorgeous dyes The milky baldric of the skies, And striped its pure, celestial white With streakings of morning light Then, from his mansion in the sun, She called her eagle bearer down, And gave into his mighty hand The symbol of her chosen land.

Majestic monarch of the cloud! Who rearst aloft thy regal form, To hear the tempest trumpings loud, And see the lightning lances driven, When strive the warriors of the storm, And roll the thunder drum of heaven Child of the sun! to thee 'tis given To guard the banner of the free, To hover in the sulphur smoke, To ward away the battle stroke, And bid its blending shine afar, Like rainbows on the cloud of war, The harbingers of victory!

Flag of the brave! thy folds shall fly, The sign of hope and triumph high! The sign of hope and trumpet tone, And the long line comes gleaming on, Ere yet the lifeblood, warm and wet, Has dimmed the glistening bayonet, Each soldier's eye shall brightly turn To where the sky-born glories burn, And, as his springing steps advance, Catch war and vengeance from the glance. And when the cannon mouthings, loud, Heave in wild wreaths the battle shroud, And gory sabers rise and fall, Like shots of flame an midnight's pall, Then shall thy meteor glances glow, And cowering foes shall sink beneath Each gallant arm that strikes below That lovely messenger of death.

Flag of the seas! on ocean's.wave Thy stars shall glitter o'er the brave When death, careering on the gale, Sweeps darkly round the bellied sail, And frighted waves rush wildly back, Before the broadside's reeling rack, Each dying wanderer of the sea Shall look at once to Heaven and thee, And smile to see thy splendors fly In triumph o'er his closing eye.

Flag of jthe free heart's hope and honie, By angel hands to valor given, Thy stars lit the welkin dome,. And all thy hues were born in Heaven. Forever float that standard sheet Where breathes the foe but fall before us, With Freedom's soil beneath our feet, And Freedom's Banner streaming o'er us!

HERE IS A SURE CURE FOR YOUR BAD EGGS

Clean Nests, Frequent Marketing, Etc., is Remedy Suggested By the Experts.

Convinced that means could be found to overcome the loss of several million dollars a year in the egg industry, the Department of Agriculture has-just completed an extensive inquiry into the causes for bad eggs. In a statement, the investigators fix the blame on the farmers and poulterers. "The greatest part of loss is due mainly to ignorance or indifference on the part of the farmer and producer," says the report, "and only a small part is caused by carelessness on the part of the buyer and shipper."

The department urges the observance of five simple rules in the conduct of the egg industry, and sets them forth as follows: "Give the hens clean nests. "Gather eggs at least once daily'. "Keep eggs in cool, dry place. "Market eggs at least twice a week. "Kill or sell all mature male birds as soon as the- hatching season closes."

The result of the investigation has been embodied in a special pamphlet ordered printed by the department

People All Over the State Taking Advantage of New Law—Two Hancock Co. Farms Named.

Owners of farms all over Indiana are selecting names that appeal to them by which they wish to designate their farms, and are having the names recorded in their respective county seats. This registration of farm names is in the nature of a county copyright for that particular name.

Names for two farms in Hancock county have been registered, the honor of being first going to Mrs. Sarah E. Crider, of Jackson township, who has chosen the suggestive name, "Home," for her farm. The second name, entered by Geo. H. Cooper for his farm southwest of towij, in Center township, is "Sycamore."

The naming of farms, under this new law, gives a chance for a distinctive difference. There is much mote meaning in "Home" or "Sycamore" than there is in sayihg "down OA the fjirm." it is e^ebttifj that msiny more will take adv&nta$e of
