ART DISPLAYS AT INDIANA FAIR
Paintings, China, Needle Work, Embroideries, Craftsmanship. MADE BY HOOSIER ARTISTS Talented Women Will Display Their Skill in Many Lines—Notable Exhibit of Pictures in Oils, Water Colore and Photography—Great Exposition of Decorated China. The richest display of the handicraft work of Hoosier women that has ever been made is promised for the Indiana state fair the week of Sept 7, Including all lines of endeavor to which the home makers of this state turn their talented fingers. To make sure that the exhibit will go ahead of other years, there has been a general revision of the prize offerings in the women’s department of the fair, some of the old classifications having been discarded and newer ones added, while there has been a general increase in the premium money. In two departments of the fair where Indiana women mostly show their capabilities as home makers—the fine arts and culinary departments—the total awards offered are over $2,000. The most notable change in the women’s departments will be that of paintings and drawings, the total premiums of which reach SSOO, and which is expected to bring to the fair’s art gallery the representative work of the best Hoosier artists. In other years anyone who could paint any kind of picture in oils or water colors could show their work at the fair, but at the next fair a new method will be followed, for each picture will have to be approved by a jury made up of artists who have exhibited work at the annual Indiana artists’ exhibition at the John Herron Art Institute, Indianapolis, and this jury, after a critical examination, will determine what pictures are worthy to go on exhibition at the fair. No state fair or exposition in the country ranks with Indiana in its exhibition of decorated china. This exhibit at the next fair will show some notable improvements, for there has been a revision of the classes and an increase of prizes which will bring forth the best work that the professional and amateur painters have to offer. The total prizes on china will be over $550. Because of a revision in the arts and crafts division and an increase of prizes there will be extraordinary qualities of stenciling, block printing, handmade jewelry, leather work, weaving, wood carving, pottery and other lines of craftsmanship shown. The amateur photographers, who are always busy in Indiana, will again have an extensive show, but their pictures must all be of this year’s make. The Fair is always rich in the needlework of Indiana women, especially In crochet and knitted work, handmade laces and embroideries, pillows and other fancy work, and special specimens of hand sewing. A new division will be needle work done by women of sixty-five years or older, and another will be for girls of fifteen years and under. The culinary exposition will have fine displays of those kitchen products for which Indiana women are nationally famous—breads, cakes, pastries, fruit products, relishes. There will be a distinctive class for the amateur culinary exhibitors and another for the professionals.
PLAYS PIANO-ACCORDION
Melodious Musical Feature to Be Given at Indiana State Fair. The Indiana State Fair will, the week of Sept. 7, offer a musical feature that will not only be entirely new to thousands of Fair visitors, but one that has never been heard on an American fair ground. This feature will be given by Amedio, the pianoaccordionist. who holds first place among the few masters of this extra-
Amedio and His Piano-Accordion, ordinary instrument. The accordion he plays is many times larger, strong; er in tone and more melodious than the old-time accordion which Hoosiers know. The instrument is almost as large as Amedio. who carries it from his shoulders with a strap. It has four banks of keys, like a pipe organ, and as many stops as a piano has keys Amedio will sp&id severaTsours~each day of the Fair wandering about the grounds playing tango dances, hes|ta tion waltzes and other tuneful airs.
PROGRESSIVE PARTY COLUMN. All matter appearing under this head Is paid for at advertising rates, and The Democrat assumes no responsibility therefor.
Convicted Themselves. Republican workers are convicted out of their own mouths of the fallacy of any statement that the republicans will poll as many votes this year as they did two years ago in Indiana. This argument of the third party leaders is based upon the assumption that with Theodore Roosevelt cut of the race this year there may be a slight breaking of Progressive linen in Indiana. But the totals of the Indiana election two years ago show that Albert J. Beveridge was 4,000 votes stronger in the state than Mr. Roosevelt. It must be granted, and it is granted even by the most stubborn reactionaries, that Mr. Beveridge is stronger in the state this year than he has ever been before.. He will be stronger as a candidate for t'nited States senator than he was for office to which he aspired two years ago—because the people are acquainted with his eminent service as senator and recognize his fitness for the office, as demonstrated by the signal achievements of his twelve years of official work at Washington. He always has had a large independent following because of his own independence and his adherence to what he believed to be right and proper and in the interest of government by all the people. That independent following is larger this year than it ever was. In addition to his own standing in the state, Mr. Beveridge is stronger by comparison with his present opponents than he w*as two years ago against his oppopents of that time. It is demonstrated, for example, by tbe political drift in Indiana in the last year that as an opposing candidate Benjamin F. Shively, the democratic nominee to succeed himself, is considerably weaker than Governor Ralston was two years ago. in the first place the operation of the Democratic machine in Indiana, with its fiascos in the last legislature. its subservience to a few bosses, its Donn Roberts sub-machine and the overshadowing influence of the Taggart-Fairbanks element, has made the Democratic party thousands of opponents within its own party ranks. In 1912 the Democratic party of
Hoosier News Briefly Told
Richmond.—John A. Willhite, twen-ty-twQ years old, killed himself by drinking poison in a local hotel. He left a note, asking that his father, J- O. Willhite of Pleasureville, Ky„ be notified. Hammond. —In the worst automobile accident happening in this district this year five prominent Indianapolis people, en route to Chicago to see the Chifed-Indianapolis game, were frightfully hurt in an auto accident south of here. Laporte—Mrs. Ethel Edwards, Three Oaks, Mich., was killed at that place when struck by a Chicago bound Michigan Central passenger train at a street crossing. Failing to observe the fast approaching train, she stepped directly in front of the locomotive I^afayette.—Charles Mackey and XMlliam Morris, working men employed in the Construction of the new seven-story building of the Lafayette Loan & Trust company, fell 60 feet when a scaffold on which they were working collapsed. Both men were seriously injured. They fell from the third floor to the basement of tne build, ing. Both men were unconscious when taken to the hospital. Anderson. —George Mathers, fifteen years old, son of Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Mathers, and a member of the Anderson Boy Scouts, was carried in a litter from the flames which destroyed his parents’ home. He had been suffering for some time 1 from typhoid fever and was in a critical condition when the fire started. It is feared he will not survive. The Are originated in the attic and proceeded with great headway. Indianapolis.—An attendant at the Union station found the body of an unidentified man. apparently about fifty-five years old, propped up in a seat in the s%ioking room at the station. The man had been dead about twenty minutes, in the opinion of Coroner Durham. He had S2O and a small vial containing heart stimulant. Heart disease is believed to have caused the death. The body was taken to an undertaking establishment. Crawfordsville. J. Virgil Crews and Miss Mae Reed of near Ladoga eloped to this city and were married by Justice E. M. Brewer before the parents of the bride knew of their plans. While the parents were away from home the daughter slipped away and, with her lover, name to this oity in an automobile. Objection was made on account of the age of the bride
Indiana was united; now it is afflicted not only with the hopelessness of winning back thousands of the independent element within the party, but with further handicaps in the studied slights of the national administration, in its own lack of capacity in state administration, in the character of its state and several city organizations, and in the general dispiriting indifference to party success which marks the rank and file of the party remaining nominally loyal to the old close corporation of bosses. W ith these indisputable disadvantages, not to mention his own want ot constructive statesmanship, Senator Shively can not hope to be relatively anything like the candidate for gathering votes that Ralston was in 1912. And, in the case of the Republican organization, with its professions of reform in spite of the domination of Indiana Republicans by the bosses who put the permanent* quietus on a once militant party in 1912, there can be no awakening of popular confidence for the old crowd. Standpat rallying cries ring hollow, the publicity agents of the party resort to abuse, invective and ridicule of other parties doctrines and members, and of their own party members who have the courage to point out the cankerous decadence of a residue of a party still the thrall of repudiated bosses. Hugh Miller as the candidate of this party can not hope, and his own Party’s members frankly admit that he can not hope, to carry anything like the strength that Winfield T. Durbin carried in the declining cause when he ran two years ago. Not only is Mr. Beveridge stronger by reason of personal ability and achievements, but he is stronger by comparison with his opponents in this year’s race. The strength is manifested not only in the positive changes that are recorded in precinct polls of voters in various parts of the state, but in the decided revolt that is working to the confusion of the Democratic state organization, and in the turning of Republicans from their old party to the man who has done more than any other individual in twenty years to reflect national honor and renown upon Indiana statesmanship.
Hartford City.—A box containing ten big snakes was received at the office here of the American Express company from San Antonio, Tex. The shipment was consigned to a show.
