BE GOOD DEMQGRAT

Convinced He Cannot Stand Up Against Such Thumpers as Thomas Taggart. HEARST WILL NOT BOLT Says He Will Support the Nominee, Whoever He May Be, of the St. Louis Convention.

FREMONT. O., May H.-Orrin Parrish tonight shot and killed his wife and then killed him.If at his wife's home In Fremont. The couple had separated bv agreement, and to-day Mrs. Parrish filed a suit for divorce, charging her husband with drunkenness and cruelty. Parrish said this was more than he could stand, and, procuring a revolver, went to his wife's home, where the tragedy was enacted on the door-btepd.

WASHINGTON, May 14.-William Randolph Hearst will support the nominee of the St. Louis Democratic convention, whoever he may be. He to-day authorized the Washington Post to make this statement unequivocally. He ridiculed a story sent from Albany that he and Mr. Bryan, Arthur Brisbane, Weaver of Iowa and others were planning a huge bolt and the formation of a new party. He said he had been making his fight for the nomination In the name of progressive Democracy, but his fight had been within party lines and would continue to be so. Whatever the result he Intended, personally and through his newspapers; to support the regular ticket. "I am for the St. Louis nominee," said Mr. Hearst to the Post. Having uttered that plain-spoken sentiment, he added, with a smile: "I should, of course, like any other man, be honored and gratified should the Democrats see fit to nominate me. But 1 do not have to be bribed by oillce to be a Democrat. I have supported the Democratic ticket in the last live campaigns. I supported Cleveland three times and Bryan tvicev I intend to support the nominee of the party at Öt. Louis, whoever ho may b'e. 1 have not been able to deny all the foolish things that have been said about me. I have not even kept up with all that lias "been said. But of all the fool things that story that I am going to bolt is 'fooler than all the

rest. I have been making my fight lor the nomination in the name of progressive Democracy. I have been making my tight within party lines." An Inquiry was made about the significance of the several contesting Hearst delegations over the country. "Every state convention of both parties has contesting delegations,"' said Mr. Hearst. "Contests do not mean that bolting will follow. In certain cases contests have been instituted by my friends, in entire sincerity on their part, which I would not have sanctioned had the matter come to my knowledge in time. But these contests can be settled in the usual way, as they are settled in every national convention. Please make It plain that I stand by the verdict of loyal Democrats, men w ho have been loyal to the party and have not been Democrats at pleasure. I am for men who have been Democratic consistency for twenty years." "Rut suppose the class you suggest as disloyal should te in control at St. Louis?" "I think there is no danger of that," was the answer. He expressed the belief that loyal Democrats would be in control at St. Louis, and reiterated his intention to support the nominee of that convention. PAIR AND WARMER TO-DAY AND TO-MORROW

WorldV Fair Exhibit. Space 102. Agricultural Building.

It is an old eaying that vinity which shapes our

hew them as we will. More than a hun

dred months ago a man came to Indianapolis, seeing it was a center in the United States from which many big things

radiate. He invested in a home at id3

North Capitol avenue, a lovely place, but

it proved too small for him. Havinsj so

many friends, he felt tho need of a large place, and set about planning the construction of a thirty-room house, and a. church

building close by. His plans Boon mater

ialized. First, there appeared a great house at the corner of Eleventh street and Cap

itol avenue, and soon there came into ex

istence the church Just around the corner,

which he named Penlel Temple. Prosperity attended hlrn. Pilgrim Home and the

church were not enoueh. The idea of a

great Christian Hotel entered his brain, as

he felt a place was needed where clean

people, morally disposed, might stop and

leei every protection of the home and yet have the advantage of every' convenience

which could be found in any hotel. Shad

ows of coming events were soon forecasted,

and by seen and unseen powers there has appeared on North Illinois street, near

New lork street, the great Linden Hotel.

of eAsy access to downtown shopping dis

tricts ana in close proximity to the magnllicent new Federal building and the beautiful interurban depot. Few people realized

wnai a great undertaking was being pro

jected. Here, on a site unthought of, rises

this great mountain of brick and mortar

In astonishing unlikeness to other hotels in

America.

On entering Its portals, there expands

to view the great wide hall 200 feet long;

miaway in us course it is intersected by a

large forty-foot court extending from the

first floor to the skylight sixty feet above.

Ai every noor, a wide balcony, or promenade, opens to the court, each bedecked In

palms and blooming flowers. In the center

of this great court Is a splashing fountain

oi pure sparkling water, coming from a deep driven well. Standing on a bowlder in the center of the large basin is a watermaid, Miss Linden; crowning her head Is

an urn of bronze, from the center of which

a Jet of water is projected skyward to fall again Into the urn, thence like a veil over her beautiful figure, which is as lovely as a dream, a form as graceful as a weep

ing willow, and produces a charm as en

chanting as the spring. At this fountain

one may partake of the cool, refreshing draughts of this health-giving w-ater. the nature of which is not understood . bv the

writer, but its wonderful qualities are' not to be excelled anywhere in the United

States. Surrounding the fountain in decora

tive style and profusion may be seen stately palms, some raising their graceful leaves

fifteen feet above the beautifully tiled floor.

Here and there are blooming flowers and

odoriferous buds. With the birds singing

and flowers blooming, the sparkling, rippling, splashing fountain, one feels as though he were in fairyland. There is a

suggestion of what Eden must have been.

In this beatuful place one may sit for hours

in perfect enchantment and contentment.

What is more soothing to the feverish

temperament than the sweet fragrance of buds and blooming flowers wafted on the gentle spring breeze like a breath from the

islands of the blessed, coming like moon

light like dew. There is such a sense of

freedom in this abundantly lighted and

ventilated building, sucTi comfort, such con tentment. it seems incredible that the regu

lar order of things should be disturbed amidst the scenes of matchless beauty and glad abiding place where one feels carried away with delight. It lights the soul, as

it were, into a blaze with a magic spell un explainable.

Made at home, with the friendly hospital

ity the place anoras, one reels delivered

from the conventional Incantations of arti

ficial life, and can enjoy himself with such

happiness not usually attained by the a m . . a

weary victims wno crowa into the many

hotels. Here, tne nner sensibilities of the

morally clean men are not offended by gambling artifices and alcoholic dispensatories. How grand it is that we may have a great hotel in this capital city, like the Lir.dcn, where one may go and be safe from the vile and vicious; a God-favored

place.

The Linden with its many attractions

and clean comfortableness is wörthy f

every consideration from you of the trav

eling public who believe in the principles here exemplified. You will find your acquaintances here will.be the best of angelic

romance that ever snot its rosy thread

through somber woof of your wandering years of life. In your sweet, clean bed you

will dream of walking again through the

fields of thyme and clover, which ought to overcome the gravity of the saddest mortal that ever wore sackcloth and ashes, and as

you go your way, siriKe a ppen on your gathering recollections, and you will wonder whether all this which has come before your

vision is not me aeparung vapor or a delightful dream.

1 PIANOS

Ten days ago, as you probably know, the upper portion of the building at 519 East Washington St was partially destroyed in what threatened to be a serious conflagration. The lower floor of this building Carlin & Lennox had been using as a wareroom. At the time it contained over sixty new and nearly a hundred secondhand pianos. By a fortunate combination of circumstances these instruments were

vSAVED from the FIILE,

Most of the pianos are practically uninjured. The flames did not reach them; nor the water. And smoke doesn't count The Salvage corps, quickly on the spot, covered everything with water-proof tarpaulins. What was even better, all the new pianos and many cf the others were encased In tight, tcngue-and-groove pine boxes, which afforded additional protection AND THE NEXT DAY EVERY PIANO WAS REHOUSED Although many pianos hardly show a blemish, the Insurance men were liberal, and every one will be sold as damaged, and as rapidly as deep price-cuts can move them.

From day to day accurate descriptions will be given detailing damage, if any, and stating regular and cut prices. And, by the way, a "regular price" with Carlin & Lennox Is the price at which the Instrument Is regularly sold, not the fancied value of an enthusiastic imagination. ' Every Piano Will Carry Its Price in Plain Figures.

The customary methods of the store will prevail. Every piano sold will be provided with an appropriate cover and stool. Selections may be paid for, cash or on easy payments.
