THE ODD FELLOWS' HOME

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEES TO DISCUSS i GRCENSBtRG COXTROVERSY. City Will Be Given Another Chance to Annex the Home Land Final Action Deferred. The executive committee cf the Odd Fellows, which has charge of the location and building of the Odd Fellows' Home, met last evening at the Denison. All members were present, except Mrs. Cranor, of Muncle, and the meeting was called to decide on the course to pursue regarding the location of the home at Greensburg. The committee claims that the Council of Greensburg, in refusing to take the land given for the heme Into the corporation, has violated the contract entered Into by the former Council, on which contract the home was located there. The committee was to consider moving the home, but decided to give Greensburg another chance. The meeting was held behind closed doors and lasted until after midnight. A committee of Greensburg citizens consisting of -Mayor E. F. Northern, Auditor Pleak, R. P. Hamilton, D. Silberberg an i James Caskey labored long with the Odd Fellows. They stated that if the committee would not take action that would be final they were satisfied the Council would take the land into the city limits. Petitions, they stated, were now being circulated asking the members of the Council to rescind their former action and take the land in. They stated that in one ward,' the councilman from which had voted against taking the land in, over 300 taxpayers had urged that the land be incorporated and only nine were opposed to it. They further said other members of the Council who had opposed this action agreed to vote to take the land in if it could be demonstrated to them that the majority of the people wanted it, and the committee was sure that this could be demonstrated. The points in the controversy were thoroughly discussed and the executive committee tedded to defer any action until after the next meeting of the Council, which will be en June SO. In the meantime no work will te done on the home. Judge M. A. Chlpman, of Anderson, after the meeting said: "We will not give in on two propositions. First and primarily important is the question of educational facilities for the children. The committee decided some time ago that the children of the home should be educated n the public schools. Some institutions of this character educate the children In the home or on the home grounds. We do not approve of this plan because the children then have no opportunity to get out, but are kept in tne institution grounds all the time. It is too much a monastery system to suit us. If the children are educated In the public schools It brings them more in contact with a little of the world in the little school world, and they are not so unfitted to go out and brush up against the world as iney would be If they were kept in the institution all the time. This we will Insist on, and if Greensburg reiuses this the home will never be completed at Greensburg. Another most important question to us is fire protection. That and education are the two most important. I do not say that a compromise will not be made, and it may be that some of the conditions of the contract would not be insisted upon, but the two I have named will be Insisted upon. We were told by the committee to-night that the petitions In circulation In Greensburg ask the Council to live up to the contract" in every particular. We will merely wait now and see what the Council will do at its next meeting and will then ta&e action." A special to the Journal from Greensburg last night stated that in the Second and Third wards of the city out of a total taxpaying population of ever 800 but nine persons 6igned the petition against annexing the land. The special further said that in a ward which. is represented by a councilman who said he would vote to annex the land If a majority of his ward desired it only three persons were opposed to it. The petitions thus far show W.5 per cent. In favor of fulnillng all pledges made. FED THE SNAKES. An Unusual Sight Witnessed, at the Animal Show. An act not down on the programme took place at Hagenbeck's show last night, when the two snakes petted and managed by Mme. Flora took their lunch. One snake Is a boa. constrictor and the- other an anaconda. Ordinarily they do not feed except at intervals of from twelve to twenty weeks, but the boa constrictor has taken a streak of hunger and It was two weeks ago yesterday that he took a light lunch of five pigeons. Preliminary to a meal these snakes always shed their skin and the boa constrictor caused some surprise by doffing his spring garment last Tuesday, while the anaconda put on her summer suit yesterday. This skin came off almost entire and has already been purchased by an Indianapolis physician. It is necessary to feed them soon after they change their skin and a box of pigeons was secured yesterday. The snakes must kill their food and will not eat anything they do not kill themselves, but they will not kill after their hunger has been satisfied. They do not kill for the love of killing. They were separated last night and put in boxes which could be covered so as to keep out all light. A pigeon was put in with each one. The boa constric tor had more of an appetite and commenced first. The pigeon was seised by the head and then, the snake, still holding the bird by the head, wrapped his body around the bird, crushing it. lhe snake was kept cov ered until he seized the bird, but after that was done the cover was raised. It Is seldom a snake will let go of Its food after having once seized it and will eat it with any cum ber looking on, although he will not feed as heartily as though alone. After killing the bird came a long delay. Neither of these snakes will ever contract Indigestion from hasty eating, for it was nearly a half an hour after catching the bird that the boa constrictor began to swallow it. The in terval was stated to be for the purpose of sucking the blood out of the bird. Then the snake began to work its jaws. The teeth In a boa constrictor are In two rows and the pigeon was pulled into the mouth on the same principle as governs the coz wheel. The pigeon was swallowed feathers, claws and all. but it passed into the body so that there was no friction on the snake's throat from feathers passing the wrong way. When the bird's body reached the throat of the snake, which is remarkably slender for such a large body, the snake s jaws were dlslo cated and the throat was distended so as to admit the entire body. Mme. Flora said that the throat has distended at times so as to admit a body which was ten to twelve Inches in diameter. The passage of the Pigeon through the body could be plainly followed with the eye as the body distended as it passed down. The same process was repeated with other pigeons and the Loa constrictor seemed in a fair way to spend the night eating. It was expected he would consume nearly a dozen birds before finish ing, and it was intended to feed LIm all he would eat. The anaconda was not so hungry and trifled with the first pigeon for over an nour. Union Trust Company Election.

The only question at issue is how many of the old men shall be reinstated if the strike is declared off. Yesterday the company received a proposition from the men to the effect that all the men be reinstated save those who might be convicted of destroying property. The company said it could not discharge the new men it had employed. At the conference today, which lasted almost continuously from 1 o'clock in the afternoon until 10 p. m., these prepositions were discussed. At first the company offered to take back 60 per cent, of the old men at once and reinstate the others who were acceptable as soon as opportunity offered. The strikers committee would not consent to that. Subsequently the company agreed to reinstate all but a hundred of the old men, and with that offer under consideration the conference was adjourned until 1 p. m. to-morrow. The members of the Council committee think a settlement will be reached.

"AUNT MILLY" FAILED, So the Yoong School 3Iom" Took a Hand. Hastily putting up a small lunch, tha young school teacher hurried away for tha day's duties, taught ber physiology class tha evil effects of coffee (that being the lessoa for the day), then came homa an mada coffee the principal thing for dinner. 8b had been growing more and more nervous and Irritable as the weeks passed by. Stomach trouble had cet In and more or lesa bowel trouble, but she never had applied to herself the teaching that coffee acts as o poison on many systems. A package of Postum Food Coffee found Its way Into the houso and was sent down to Aunt MUly, the cook, to make. In tha morning, when It was served, it was so Inferior that it was pushed away in disgust and regular coffee called for. But th school teacher knew she must have help some way. to get rid of coffee drinking, so she went down the next morning to make soma Postum herself and to make It carefully, according to directions. The result was more satisfactory than she had ever dreamed. With rich cream it waa better than the best coffee she had ever drunk and it made her hungry for breakfast jus) to smell It. A week passed by and she became knowa as an enthusiast on the subject. One day at school a remark was made on her Inproved looks, and she related the story ct the new coffee. Miss Smith, one cf tho teachers, remarked that he had always wanted something In place of coffee, and In tended to try it A few mornings afterward Miss Smith remarked: "We tried your old Postum at home and nobody liked It" She was induced, however, to give it a trial under the personal direction of her own supervision. In order to know that It was boiled fifteen or twenty minute. Trt cleared up the case, and Miss Smith Is aa enthusiastic over Postum as the other teacher has been. The little nephew in the house was perfectly delighted with the thought of havlnj a cup of coffee every morning for breakfast. The greatest victory we have had is with sister, who has been a regular coffee devotee and held out against the Postum for some time, but after she had used Postura for about ten days she said one morning: "I must say I will take this in prefereaco to coffee every time, so we will just havo Postum hereafter and none of the old-fashioned coffee." Now when the teacher Instructs a class la phyelology sho can demonstrate by her ot.t physical health the advantage of losvlr.3 off coffee, with its poisonous effects. ""cptr, Nashville. Tena.
