Our friend Bill Floars of mustache fame and the champion long-distance of Starke Co., departed for Momence Saturday where be intends to stay until Christmas. The fish have begun to bite. If the rain would cease and the warm weather stay with us for awhile, the frying of fish would be the universal music and occupation of this realm. While extracting the head from a chicken with an ax the other day, Henry Ferrel made a mis-q and struck his thumb, almost cutting it off. It is thought that the thumb can be saved. Messrs. T. J.

With honesty for a breast-plate and the pebble of truth in the sling of native fearlessness, no wonder it kills the Goliaths. ~We are glad to state that our friend Emmons Miller who has been working as a Three- 1 bridge carpenter tor the past two years, has been promoted to the position of overseer of a bridge gang. We wish to congratulate Emmons upon his success. We are glad to state that wherever aD. V. boy goes he gives a good account of himselL As the lightning has begun making inroads in the ranks of the hogs, we feel that we ought to incubate some scheme to defeat this destruction. We would suggest that every farmer should either attach lightning rods to his hogs or tar and feather them, as it is an unwritten law that lightning will not monkey with anything that wears feathers. In this age of progressiveness and philanthropy, it seems strange that a few people will give voice to the pessimistic cry, that the world is getting worse day by day. Such a cry is not the voice of the universal soul but the howl of the tribes of the deserts of desolation. The

growing popularity of arbitration, the higher conception of citizenship, and the literal obeying of the mandates of the bible, surely sumps this the anteage of Paradise regained. We can’t see why it is that the school house in the northwest part of the tp., should retain the name of Danche when everything around it suggests another name more appropriate. We believe in having names for the school houses that are in accord with conditions as they now exist, not as they were in the misty past. We wish to suggest to our trustee that it would be more appropriate to call the school house the "Powers school house,’’ providing Mr. Powers does not decline the honor, which we think is highly improbable. At the Hearth residence last Wrdnes in the presence of a large cdncourse of friends and relatives, Mr. Joseph Hilliard and Miss Elizabeth He rath, both of this place, were uaited in marriage by Rev.

CIGARETTE LAW CASE

Reply to a Suit That Attacks the Constitutionality of the Statute. FUSE FOOD CAMPAIGN BEGINS Bad Blood, the Sequel of a Marriage, Ends in Murder State News Items. Inrianapolls, Sept. 8. —Answer to the brief attacking the constitutionality of the anti-cigarette law has been tiled in the supreme court by Attorney General Miller. The original brief was filed by Homney L. Wilson in appeal of the case of John M. Lewis from the Madison circuit court. The answer submits that the only point involved in the appeal is that the law deprives the citizens of the state of certain inalienable rights, namely, the right of individual liberty and the pursuit of happiness. In this connection quotation Is made from the decision of the supreme court upholding the constitutionality of the law prohibiting persons from smoking or inhaling opium. Points Mode in the Answer. Then the brief goes on to say: “The legislature has determined that the habit or practice of smoking cigarettes is detrimental to the moral, mental and physical well-being of the citizens, at least to the youthful portion, of this state. It is a matter of general information that cigarette smoking is an insidious. injurious and dangerous practice, and if the legislature, in their sovereign capacity, deem it wise to prohibit the manufacture, the sale, or even the use of cigarettes, we believe that it is beyond the power of the courts to interfere With such legislation.” • Pure Food Law at Work. Indianapolis. Sept. B.—The state laboratory of hygiene, established by the last legislature, will be In operation the last of tills week, according to H. E. Barnard, state chemist. As the first step in the campaign to enforce the pure food laws now on the statute books, the first deputy health officer and food Inspector, Louis Bristol, of this city, has started out on his tour of the cities of the state with tbeview of detecting adulterations.
