The right kind of food will work wonders in the. way of changing a sick person to a healthy one. and by the same rule Veep a person in good health. Arthur W. Fanning. 11 Throop street, Chicago, 111., had such a remarkable experience himself with Grape-Nuts Food that he recommended it to a friend for his child for whom the parents were unable to find food that would agree. It was supposed the child's stomach had been ruined by the use of medicines. When he was put on Grape-Nuts he began to improve, and Mr. Fanning says. "I will wager that, although he is but three years old now. he is the be single-handed customer the Postum Cereal Co. have to-day. H has become big and strong. "and is In perXtct condition. I have received thanks many times from his mother for bringln-t.rape-Nuts I oo.t to their attention. Th3 whole family are using the food now -My own experience was remarkable.

A large and appreciative audience listened to a recital by Miss Jeanette Orlopp, violinist, assited by Miss Ethel Beatrice Carpenter, of Chicago, soloist, before the Matir.ee Musicale yesterday afternoon at the Propylaeum. The programme was a varied one, showing by the variety of compositions the work of each artist to advantage. Miss Orlopp's first group of selections were very interesting, consisting cf "Romanze" and "Concertstuck," by August Wllhclmj; "Andaluza," by P. do Sarasate. and "Hungarian Dance," by Brahms-Joachim. The third selection was vfry attractive, having a Spanish vein, with bright dance rhythm, and the "Hungarian Dance" was a ttttlng close to the gtoup which Miss Orlopp played with n.uch feeling and strong accent. Miss Carpenter: selections were a little out of the ordinary, consisting of songs not heard often. Her ttrst group included "To a Rose," by Hastings: "Bluthen, Bluthen. Uberall." by Von Flelltz; "The Asra." by Rubinstein; "Love the Peddler," German: -Mon Desire." by Nevln. and "The Year3 at the Spring." by Beach. One of the most pleasing of the group was the French song, -Mon Desire," when Miss Carpenter was at her best; "Love the Peddler," was also attractive, and the German song was sung v :1th much sweetness. Miss Carpenter possesses h contralto voice of moderate power and much sweetness. Her second group was very attractive and included the following numbers: ".Since We Parted ' by Allitsrn; "Sapphic Ode," by Brahms; "Fair Helen" (old Scotch . by Hastings, and "The Moon's Lullaby," by Burnham. The two latter songs were very pretty and suited to Miss Carpenter's voice. whic'i is sympathetic. Avith clear liquid tonea "The Moon's Lullaby" was sort of on th"humorous order. One of the most difficult of Mls Orlopp's selections and one which she played with much power was Chaconiie." by J. S. Bach. It is a selection with technical difficulties, which most artists consld.-r a test. She played it unaecomp.inhd and her tones were clear anl pure The audience, realizing and appivil.iting her work, responded henrtlly. The two last numbers were by Miss Orlopp. "Paraphrase, !e la Romance, du Concerto Op. 11," by Chorln-WUheimJ. and "Polonaise. Op. y," by Ferdinand Laub. Following the musicale there was a social hour, ftnl the guests were Invited to stay for a cup of tea. Among the visitors were Mr J.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal. SHELBY VILLE. Ind., March 6.-Special Judge Lex J. Kirkpatrlck this afternoon overruled the motion for a new trial In the George M. Ray case, and at 4:43 o'clock sentenced him to the Michigan City prison for not longer than fourteen years nor less than two years and fined him $10, the smallest fine allowed under the statute. , When Judge Kirkpatrlck stepped into the courtroom this afternoon every available inch of space was occupied. For two hours Judge Kirkpatrlck analyzed the law governing the case, taking up each of the groups in the motion and overruling them in succession. He ruled against the defendant's affidavits in support of the witnesses attacking the character of the jurors, but allowed tho jurors to Introduce affidavits in support of their reputation, holding that the Jurors were officers of tho court, and any affidavit stating things they bad said out of court contradictory to their evidence in court could be answered by affidavits in their behalf. Evidence contrary to that of an affiant was not sufficient to impeach him. On that part of the motion alleging the double crime in the fifth count, on which Ray was found guilty, the court held that the count charged the filing of a fa'.se claim only, and the matter alleging a conspiracy with the County Commissioners was simply explanatory of the manner in which the false claim was filed; that the facts concerning the conspiracy was mere surplusage. It was proper, he declared, for the State to prove that prior to the filing of the bill there had been an agreement between Ray and the commissioners, and that the contract admitted in trial was simply to show the criminal Intent of the defendant to defraud the county. The argument of the defense that he had a right to get as big a contract as possible, and that it was no crime for him to disregard the law, and that the commissioners were the guilty ones, was overruled by the court. It was left for the Jury to determine the defendant's criminal intent to defraud the county, and the terms of the contract, proven in the case, together with Its fulfillment, were for the Jury to determine. The court stated that he was particularly careful in instructing the Jury on the question of reasonable doubt, even more than had been asked for by the defendant. The contract stated that the gods were to be furnished for a period not longer than until the 1st of January, 1D00, and the Jury was to determine whether the amount furnished was done to evade the terms of the law of 18W, as charged. On the error of the court in giving Instructions, he held that a claim filed under an illegal contract would be Illegal, and if the claim was fraudulent the defendant could not be convicted unless he had the knowledge that it was fraudulent and that he filed it with that knowledge. The court also held that it was the judge as to the competency of evidence, and the Jury had no right to consider any evidence after it had been ruled out by the court. He held that it was not necessary under this indictment to show the pecuniary advantage to the defendant or to the people he represented. He took up severally the attacks of the defendant upon the jurors, and made the statement that he would have sustained a challenge as to Juror John W. Carson had it been made, reading at length his examination touching his competency as a Juror. The court stated that he had given the defendant the utmost liberality in selecting the jury, and not a single Juror challenged for cause was allowed to remain In the box. As to the misconduct of the prosecuting attorney, which was made one of tho grounds for a new trial, the court held that the language was not objectionable and that the defendant's attorney was responsible for the altercation. When the motion was overruled Ray, although he had had some Intimation as to what was coming, turned white in the face. Sixty days were granted in which to file a bill of exceptions and prepare a long-hand transcript of the evidence, including the rulings and exceptions, for the Supreme Court. m M , Motion was made in arrest of Judgment, containing about the same grounds as in the motion for a new trial. The motion was overruled after a brief argument. When asked if he had anything to say why sentence should not be passed, Ray said: "No, sir, I have nothing to say. Pass the sentence." Then the Judge rassed the sentence of not more than fourteen years nor less than two and a fine of $10. While the court was making the usual talk to the prisoner Ray sat next to his attorneys, talking and laughing with Attorney Campbell, paying no attention whatever to the remarks of the judge. Sheriff Luther, it is said, has promised on several occasions that when sentence was passed he would then confine Ray to the jail or his residence. But to-night Deputy Chester Luther and Ray were walking about town as usual. INDIANA OD1TUAIIY. William II. Sims, a Well-Known Educator of Northern Indlann. Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
