Hin*h?w Due to Return to the Pen After Sixty Day*' Liberty at Home ATTEHDIHO HIS SICK MOTHER Permanent Parole la Probable-r“ Ope» Shop" Plght Won at Shelbyville—State News. \ Winchester, Ind., Jan. 21. RevWiUiatu K. Hinshaw, who Is under life sentence to the state prison for murder, la still at the Hluahaw family homestead, live miles south of this city, having spent practically all of the time of hla sixty-day parole with his aged and Invalid mother. Some weeks ago Hinshaw was granted a sixty-day parole, without guard, In order that h« might visit bis mother, who was thought at that time to be dying, and ne has well improved the time and opportunity given him by the authorities. Ht* Mother Greatly Improved. Not even hla most Intimate friends liave been able to see or talk with him without going to the Hinshaw homestead, as he has given all of hla time to the comfort of her for whom his liberty of sixty days was permitted. Mrs. Hinshaw, since her son has been with her, has very much improved in health, and, although aged and frail, the comforting Influence of the minister-son have given her much strength and hope. Indeßatte Parole Is Expected. Hinshaw is in the I>e6t of health in every way, weighing about 180 pounds, and has a clear and healthy complexion, and his countenance Is graced by that characteristic smile that has always marked bis individuality. He bears no evidences of his prison life. Tomorrow his sixty-day parole will expire, and he will then voluntarily leave his country home for the prison. His friends and legal advisers confidently expect that an indefinite parole will soon be granted by the authorities. STRUGGLE FOR THE OPEN SHOP - ■Succeed* at Sholbyvlllc and Now That Principle I* In Full Operation. Sbelbyville, ind., Jan. 21. —After a nine months’ contest between the manufacturers and organixed labor every plant in this place Is in full operation upon the open shop plan. Last spring the cabinet-makers, varulshers and finishers went on a strike, the first of the union men to go out. Couditions grew so bad Hint a citizens’ alliance was formed to resist the picketing of places and the clubbing of non-union meD who obtained work iu the factories.
Finally the courts were appealed to, -members of llio nlliiinee getting Injunctions against members of the union, restraining them from interfering with the operators or their employes dnany unlawful manner. Judge Pen field’* ('end Idary. Indianfl|M)lis, Jan. 21. The anlAOuneeuient by Judge William Lawrence PentteW, of Auburn, solicitor for the state department, that he is a gubernatorial candidate, is the talk of political circles. It Is denied by those prominent as friends of Beveridge and Fairbanks, that Pentleld is supported l»y them. It is the consensus of opinion that Judge Pentleld lias reasoned that if the race between .1. Frank Hanley, of Lafayette, and William F. Taylor, former attorney general, grows bitier he can win as a compromise candidate. Mr». UHrrl.au as a Reformer. Indianapolis, Jan. 21. —With an idea "that she might reform him, Mrs. Benjamin Harrison has taken into her home as a servant a 12-year-old cob ored boy, who was paroled from the reform school for boys at Plainfield. .Several weeks ago Mrs."Harrlson vis:ned the school and noticed, that the 'tvoy seemed ashamed of his surroundings. She learned that Ills name was Alexander 1 aker and that lie was c lassed as “incorrigible." She believes that he will respond to kindly Intlu--oneos. Robber m» Good at* Pardoned. Kushville, Ind., Jan. 21. Frank Norris, convicted of robbery in September, 1902, was given a ten days’ paroie sonic weeks ago to visit liis aged parents, who were very sick.

A Costly Cure.
The hydrlnus, or serpentine, caUM in Italy ranocchia, or frogskin, from Its mottled appearance, a stone of a rich, dark green color, with shades and spots resembling a serpent’s skin, Is popularly believed to be a specific for rheumatism. Camlilo Leonardo, one of the earliest authorities to describe carefully the virtues of precious stones, thus quaintly speaks of It: "It restores such sufferers to health if they will stand In the sun, bolding it in the band for three hours, as it causes the discharge of all the poisonous moisture In ithe body.” Great care, however, must bfe taken, he warns us,.in using it, an It tends at the same time to abstract the natural moisture of the body. Ground to a powder and taken inwardly, It is said to cure the stone and venomous bites, and in particular it is a potent charm to drive away serpents of all sorts. Though soft enough to be easily cut or turned, serpentine admits of a high polish and Is much prized for ornamental purposes.
Beauty and the Beast.
There was as much truth as boasting In the statement of John Wilkes, the famous London alderman, "Ugly aa I am, if I can have but a quarter of an hour’s start I will get the better of any man, however good looking, in the graces of any woman.” Of Wilkes’ abnormal ugliness there was never any question. “The children In the street ran away affrighted at the sight of him.” And yet his powers of fascination were so great that women of beauty and fashion vied with each other for his notice, while handsome men of all courtly graces were neglected. It was said that there were few beauties of the day whose hand Wilkes might not have confidently hoped to win. He married one of the richest and loveliest women of his time. "Beauty aud the beast, they call us,” Wilkes once said to a friend, “and I cannot honestly find fault with the description.”
Mark Twain and Whistler.
Mark Twain thus described his first meeting with James Mac Neill Whistler: “I was Introduced to Mr. Whistler,” he said, "In his studio in London. I had heard that the painter was an incorrigible joker, and 1 was determined to get the better of him if possible. So at once I put on my most hopelessly stupid air, aud I drew near the canvas that Mr. Whistler was completing. " ‘That ain’t bad,’ I said—‘it ain’t bad; only here In this corner*—and I made as If to rub out a cloud effect with my finger—Td do away with that cloud If I was you.’ "Whistler cried uervously: “ ‘Gad, sir, be careful there! Don’t you see the paint is not dry?’ “ ‘Ob, that don’t matter,’ said I. ‘l’ve got my gloves on.’ "We got on well together after that”
Pascal’s Early Observation.
Blaise Pascal, who wrote a remarkable treatise On the laws of sound, was constantly observing the familiar occurrences about him even as a boy. When he was only ten years old he sat at the dinner table one day striking his plate with bis knife and then listening to the souud. “What are you doing with that platat Blaise?" asked bis sister. “See," he replied. o “When I strike the plate with my knife It rings. Hark!” Again he called forth the sound. “When I grasp It with my hand so,” he continued, “the sound ceases. I wonder why' it is.”
Michael Angelo.
Michael Angelo, while painting “The Last Judgment," fell from his scaffold and .received a painful injury in the leg. He shut himself up and would not see Bacio ltontinl, a celebrated physician, came by accident to see him. He found all the doors closed. No one responding, he went into the cellar and came upstairs. He found Michael Angelo in his room, resolved to die. His friend the physician would not leave him. He brought him out of the peculiar frame of mind into which he had fallen.
Brazilian Coffee.
Brazilians are great coffee drinkers. Numerous cups bee drunk each day by the average uiau and woman. The beverage is made very strong and very sweet. It produces an exhilaration of a more intense and lasting kind than beer. Those addicted to this habit become very restless and scarcely able to sit still or stand still even for a moment.
Used to Fill Up.
Mrs. Billus (after the company had gone)—Johuuy, you shouldn’t have eaten those preserved fruits. They were not intended to be eaten. They were put on the table to fill up. Johnny Billus—Well, that's what I used ’em for. mamma.

UNION MINNER MAY STRIKE
Man See Plot to Modnco Wage* and Convention Will Decide on tho /' Policy To Bo Punned. Indianapolis, Jan. 10.—Reductions In wages In the past two months, resulting apparently from a preconcerted move on the part of the operators, may result in a general strike of the 325,000 union miners of the country. In three states operators are making efforts for a further reduction, and the convention of the United Mine Workers of America, which is bolding its session, is expected to take action. The cut in wages on which the delegates will base their action. Is regarded as the work of the association of operators. If this reduction is permitted, It is argued, further reductions will follow. Prompt and energetic action is held the only manner In which the union can protect its interests. Although the situation is considered serious, none of the national officers will forecast the probable outcome. The convention will be In session probably ten days, when the members will enter Into joint convention with the operators of the central competitive field, embracing western Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. The joint convention will fix the wage scale for the miners of that district, and the declaration of war, If one Is made, likely will come then. There are in the United States 450,000 miners, of whom 825,000 are union men. Of this number 14,000 now are on strike, 10,000 In the west, 3,000 In the Myersdale district and 1,000 In West Virginia.
DENIED IN ST. PETERSBURG
Mn Personal Interview Arranged Between the Czar of Russia and the Japanese Minister. St. Petersburg, Jan. 20.—There is no truth in the statement telegraphed to the Cologne Gazette that a personal interview between the czar and the Japanese minister—Kurina—had been arranged. It would be most unusual for the czar to give a personal audience to a simple minister, and it is authoritatively denied that such a meeting was ever contemplated. It Is affirmed from a Japanese source that Russia, in notifying Japan of her recognition of treaty rights In Manchuria, expressly excepted the privileges of foreign settlements, and it Is further said that the United States bad been informed that Japan was disposed to contest this point which it considered vital, in the exercise of trade privileges. J All the newspapers publish editor-3 ials on the mediation suggestion and' declare such a step is unnecessary. The press generally admits with some irritation that a great victory has been woa by American diplomacy in Manchuria. London, Jan. 21.—A dispatch to The Pall Mall Gazette from Berlin declares that the correspondent is in a position to announce positively that u has been decided at St. Petersburg that Japan’s wishes shall be met In such a way as to secure the maintenance of peace. The dispatch adds that the only question Is whether Russia "shall declare her decision to Japan alone or to all the powers interested in the solution of the far eastern question.”
DISCRIMINATED IN PRICE
Did the Gross Fastener People, Changing Uncle Sam ft. 35 and Others Only 25 Cents. Washington, Jan. 20.—The trial of August W. Machen and the others indicted with him for conspiracy to defraud the government is proceeding rapidly. The government put in evidence a number of documents having a direct bearing on*the dealings of the Gross brothers with Machen’s division in the postoffice department', and bank officials gave testimony concerning the deposits of tho Groffs and the checks drawn against these deposits. The fact was brought out by two witnesses representing firms which manufactured the Gross fastener that the price to the Groffs of the complete fastener was 25 cents, with a rebate on 5 cents on each fastener conditioned on prompt settlement of bills. The price at which the fasteners were furnished to tho government at first was fixed at $1.50, but later it was reduced to $1.25 each.

Climatic Curaa. The influence of climatic conditions in the cure of consumption Is very much overdrawn. The poor patient, and the rich patient, too u can do much better at home by proper attention to food digestion, and a regular use of German Syrup. Free expectoration in the morning is made certain by German Syrup, so is a good night’s rest and the absence of that weakening cough and debilitating night sweat. Restless nights and the exhaustion due to coughing, the greatest danger and dread of the consumptive, can be prevented or stopped by taking German Syrup liberally and regularly. Should be able to go to a warmer clime, you will find that of the thousands of consumptives there, a few who are bene&tted and regain strength are those who use German Syrup.
