McLandburgh Wilson. IRELAND has determined to grow Its own tobacco again and is telling England to "put that in its pipe and smoke it." FEARFULLY tough on the Ohio sheriff to have John D. so easily and willingly accept service in the antitrust prosecutions, lie will scarcely know how to play without the limelight in which he has been for so long. LONG and stirring accounts of the Russian revolution and inalienable rights In of the people, are served us by the press with small comment on the amusement it must afford the people with money loaned there, who are wondering what is to become of their securities. The question never touched on is, how long the creditors will continue to cash coupons! THE Plymouth Tribune man evidently forgot it is not good ethics to jump on the under dog: "Ex-Candidate Alton 1. Parker is given credit for discovering a way to head off Hearst as a seeker for the nomination for governor of New York. It is pleasing to know that Mr. Tarker has been able to render some service to his singular helpless party. He has not. Incidentally, rendered much service to his state for there was no danger that Hearst would be elected if nominated by the Democrats." TWO Crown Point papers, the Register and the Freie Presse, refused to boost the Wallace show for Crown Point yesterday for the reason that the Crown Point Forester picnic is lit hand. The advance man could not show money enough to buy a line of advertising that would in any way interfere with the success of the For-fi-tFT's picnic tomorrow. The editors '. : money nut but if the good will of a community counts as a renumejr,.:f.ion !ha two editors will be well I e warded for their financial sacrifice. WHILE restoring St. Marks Cathedral in Venice, a rare coin of the twelfth century wa- found in the crmnt wh -( it supposedly dropped from t'ne povket of a dorkrnan.

! THE Argus-Bulletin of all nortbern Indiana newspapers is the most j sanguine of Democratic victory. We would like to see them handle the Bryan-Sullivan episode and the love feast between, Cleveland, Hearst and Tom Taggart. If they will kindly add a few hopeful remarks about the election of Judge Darroeh to the position of Congressman Crumpaoker hition of congressman from the Tenth district yes, and the probability of a Democratic landslide in Indiana next fall. ! f THE officers who so successfully trailed and captured the Tolleston murderer deserve the heartiest praise from this community for their efficiency and bravery. Especial credit should be given Deputy Fred Harms of Tolleston who wired Hammond and Crown Point for assistance, and then started on the trail himself. Sheriff Daugherty is to be congratulated on the efficiency of the men under him, who have in this instance proved their worth to the community. WITH THE EDITORS. A bale of bills pasted by congress hardly would do as much for the protection of railroad passengers as the one new movement on the Harriman lines, which is to build only steel passenger coaches hereafter. This ought in time to put an end to the roasting of people burning in wrecks and haul ing mangled passengers from heaps of splintered cars. Terre Haute Tribune. Although the iolitical campaign of 1908 can hardly be said as yet even in the period of gestation, our Democratic friends are already sharpening their knives :or ouch other in anticipation of what is coming. A number of the very beauti'ui rows are on and Mr. Bryan does not give evidence of coming homo us a great pacificator and healev of wounds. In point of absolute fact. before he waves the olive branch in his loft hand he calls attention to the brick bat which he carr'os in his light. The sort of party peace whuh he p,-o-poses to ladle out is that w iiiclt characterizes the political graveyard, i lbaction in Iho case of Uo.;er Sullivan clearly demonstrates that he. proposes to wade, through slaughter to a throne and shut the gates of mercy on all Democrats who do not conform to the Procrustean standard he has decreed. Fort Wayne .News. Between Trains A London tailor makes the following statement: "To be fashionable one should wear a blue dinner coat. Trousers optional." Now what do you think of that. If the Indiana woman's 112 years are the result of the continuous use of black coffee, are we to draw the conclusion that "the reason" for health substitutes originated in Osier's brain. One of our Homewood readers brings in the word (hat crickets were heard there last night. Only six weeks to frost! Let this refreshing thought comfort and cool you. So your dinner last evening was a success? Yes, the guests seemed to enjoy themselves very much. When they left I could only find two silver spoons in the house. The Postum and health food ads which run: "There's a reason." seem to be knocked in the head when the Indiana woman who died the other day asserted that she attributed her longevity to two daily meals of corn bread and black coffee. A teacher in explaining the different kinds of sentences to her class asked what would it be if she said: "I am looking for a man." "I don't know," said one boy at the foot of the class, "but I guess it would be the truth." 'Tiu ashamed of this composition, Charley," said a teacher to one of her pupils one day. "I shall send for your mother and show her how badly you are doing." '"Send: for her; I don't care," said Charley: "Me ruudder wrote It anyway." A little girl coming in from a walk one day declared that she had seen a bis? yellow lion in the park and no amount of argument or persuasion could cause her to deviate from the statement. That night when saying her prayers her mother iaid: "Ethel ask God to forgive you

that fib you told today." Looking her mother -in the eyes she replied . T 1 1 1 4. . Til V. a. ii J T

Britton is the telegraph operator for the Western Union in the Hammond building. Britton is a stockily built fellow with a round face that usually displays a pleasing smile when he talks. There is also a man in town by tht name of John Burns, who is a stockily built fellow with a round face that usually displays a pleasing smile when he talks. The men both wear light suits and soft gray hats. In fact, they look ;-:o much alike that if they should ever meet they wouldn't know whether they were themselves or the other elldw. The other day a lady stopped Mr. Burns, whom it will be remembered is not the telegraph operator, and asked him what it would coat to send a message to Joplin, Mo. Mr. Burns looked rather surprised but managed to remark. 30 cents. The lady looked a second time and went away feeling like the price of the Joplin message. RAILROAD NOTES ELIE WAOTS A1T0TKEH LEAD TO TilACK YAP.DS. Coal Dealers Along F.ight-cf-Way ITotined to Take Sheds and Oficeo From Right-of-Wey. It is the inteneion of the Erie Railroad company to use another lead track south of Sibley street to its yards. Officials wore here yesterday to confer with tht Dal dealers along the Erie tracks and have notified them that it will be necessary for them to take their offices and coal sheds off the Erie right-of-way. Although Meikle's coal offices and slieds stand entirely on the company's grounds he will not be compelled to move as the laying of the new track will not be interfered with by his buildings. Mrs. Dibofs, and William Ahlborn will, however, in all probability be fo; ccd to retreat somewhat as they are occupying a few feet of right-of-way of the railroad. It will, however not change their business place. The company at first tried to Induce the coal dealers to locate near the coal storage to which the latter objected. The Erie now maintains one switch lead but finds it necessary to have two in order to give trains going to and from the yards a right-of-way. EIGHT OSDAINED AS PRIESTS.

Eelates to Police the Story j of the Tolleston Shooting Case. III SEPTEMBEB Justice Jordan Binds Eiaysr cf Jacl Lennin? Over t3 Circut Cci'.rt Grand Jurv. Lart night in the proscne of Chief of Police Rimbach. Albert Morris. Peter Austgen and Charles I-"!ag. a notary public, Hanuen admitted that he killed Jack Lenning iu cold Wabash tracks at Tolblood near the leston. This morning he was given a hearing before Judge Jordan and after a lengthy review of the evidence Hannen was bound over to the circuit court at Crown Point where the trial will be held some time in September. All during the hearing this morning Hannen sat with as much composure as though he was only lacing the charge of drunkeness instead of murder in the first degree with the hangman's noose around his neck as a possibility. The confessed murderer is of a low order of intelligence, with a small head, a low brow and aparcntly not enough grey matter under bis head of coarse black hair to enable him to realize the horror of his crime and the consequences that will follow. The Murderer's Story. The story of the crime as told in his confession is as follows: "I left Tolleston about noon. After I had crossed the Wabash tracks and gone a short distance I saw Lenning lying along the side of the road. He had a little black clog with him and I said "That's a nice dog you have there.' He answered, 'That's a nice pup you have.' 1 then went down the road a little ways and Lenning s dog followed me. Lenning yelled to me, 'You , : you going to steal my dog.' I walked on and paid no attention to Lenning, when he got up and ran after me. yelling, 'You you are going to steal my dog.' "He followed me a hundred yards and was within a rew feet oi me when I pulled :ny revolver and shot him in the head. When Leaning dropped to the ground I walked up to him and fired another shot into his neck. "I had been drinking and after the shots had been fired I went into the woods near Gary and slept off my drunk. Later I went to my tent in Gary where I was captured by the police." The murderer's story does not account for the fact that his victim'" pockets were turned wrong side out, nor does he give the reason for finding it necessary to shoot twice at a defenseless man who had simply called him names. If the murder was committed while Hannen was under the influence of liquor, and if it can be proven that the murder was not premeditated, the penalty will be life imprisonment. If it is proven that Hannen left the saloon with murder in his heart and lay in wait for his victim the crime will be murder in the first degree and the penalty under the Indiana law is death.
