Heavy Decrease Compared with Last Week—This le a Curious Cat1 i tie Market.

"Hog salesmen almost got any price Svey asked this morning," remarked ona of tnem. The upward movement of yesterday continued In force, the advance being variously estimated from 6c to 16c. The average was strong to higher, all grades showing Improvement. Eastern shippers were not early, with more orders than for a weak. The local packers were In the running, too. After getting started, there were no breaks In the line of bogs going over the scatee until the supply had been eahausted

It is not yet actually in existence, tfut medical congresses are busily and even hopefully paving th* way for its advent. When It arrive* and we are all thoroughly scientific and uncomfortable. our homes will be singlestoried, without stairs, built on gravel soil, destitute of cellars, with concrete and blocks of earthenware “pierced for ventilation'’ placed under the floor, and the ordinary bricks “will be superseded by glazed and tightly fitting hygienic : bricks." The roof will be tiled, not slated, ; and the windows will reach from top to

Among the ''sports'* it is the understanding that the ban which has rested more or less heavily on the gambling industry in this city for the last few weeks, is to be lifted to & degree at least. The “sports" do not say where this understanding cornea from. At Tron’s. which has been dark most of the time lately, the equipment ia being renewed ahd a roulette table is being added. Kissel's game has been running without cessation, except at odd times, and is the only big gam* that has not

been closed.

The gamblers' gossip is that now that Mayor Bookwalter is away on a two weeks’ vacation, the word has gone out that while the cat ia away the mice may play. It is their theory that with the mayor away the superintendent of police will have to take all the blame and the mayor, when he comes home, can

say It was not hia fault.

Superintendent Taffe Speaks. Superintendent of Police Taffe saye;

“The fact that Mayor Bookwalter la out of the city will make no difference as to my stand toward the gamblers. Last night was the first time for many nights that all the gambling rooms were not visited, and the visits were not made then aa everything has been closed so tight that I thought It would do no harm to omit one call Theae vlaita are not being discontinued, however. They will keep on just the same and no gambling is to be

permitted in this city.”

As an example of how the city.administration regulates gambling, especially the part of it conducted by W. F. Kissel, a man who was in the street in front of Kissel's gambling rooms two weeks ago Inst Saturday night tells the following: "While I was there Ser«eant Schetgert and some policemen came along. They went on the other side of the street and looked up at the Kissel winnows to see If there was a light. There was a light and they crossed the street. Schelgert asked Duff Callahan, who was aittlng on a bench if he had a key to the gambling rooms. “Of course I haven't.’ said Caila-

•What do you think I am?'

Game Tipped Off.

** 'Well,' says Schelgert, If we can’t

get a key we will break in.' Now, what did he say that for? Why, so that Callahan or some one else would tip off the

raid. But Callahan didn't do it “Schelgert and hla men went up stairs,

knocked on the dor, and talked to some one who answered. Then I am told on good authority some one in the gambling rooms telephoned around for Mayor Bookwalter and finally got him. Shortly afterward an officer from the police station arrived, and Schelgert and the rest went away with him. A little while afterward the players came out of the room and went away. Among them were some well known Republican politicians, one of

When Superintendent of Police Taffe was told of thie story bs said; "There can be no truth In It. If there were. I would have been informed, and I know nothing whatever of It. Such information would have come through a report from Sergeant Schelgert. and I would surely have known also If any man had been sent from this office to call off the sergeant and the other men.

Former County Clerk Appears Without It, as He Did Years Ago. “Brush the gentleman.” And the porter brushed the gentleman. When John E. Sullivan entered a downtown barber shop yesterday he wore a full beard. When he left, only a mustache was left. Sullivan was clerk of Marlon county more than a decade ago. When he left the city he had not taken to the whisker habit. He was gone _ long time and, one day, about two years ago he came to Indianapolis from Greencastle. His face was then covered with a luxuriant growth of hair, and few of hts friends recognized him. Until yesterday he did not look like himself. When he stepped from the chair he looked at himself In the glass, then at the barber, then back into the glass. He was a stranger even to himself for a moment. He looked so unnatural. But finally, when he became convinced that he was none other than Sullivan, he paid his bill, straightened up and walked ®kit, apparently satisfied with the change in his appearance.

German Scientist Suggests Substitute

for Alcoholic Drinks.

BERLIN, August 20.—Professor Bunge, the celebrated physiologist, while expressing his satisfaction with the war againat alcohol conducted here and In America, said: "If alcoholic drinks are to be abandoned more and more, we will have to find a substitute. The best substiA I tute, from a hygienic standpoint, will be j sugar. But as sugar Is too satisfying to ; be taken by itself, persons who eat much I of It are apt to lose their appetite for | other articles of food necessary for their well-being. The sugar should, therefore, be taken tn Its natural state, in grapes, figs, plums, dates, pears, prunes, aprl- | cots, peaches, etc. When they can not be had fresh, dried fruit ought to be

eaten.”
