WILLING TO TAKE US ALL IN. The worm has turned at last. After poking fun at us all these years the Windy city is ready and even eager to take Hammond, Gary, East Chicago and the other places nearabouts to it generous bosom. It was not always thus, but now the Chicago Tribune says editorally: "A little note in the railroad column. But it has its suggestion. It describes new train service on the Northwestern and St. Paul roads that has placed Milwaukee almost in the suburban list. It tells of hundreds of people coming from that city daily to transact business in Chicago. Forty-five two hour trains a day are provided, these transporting more than 35,000 passengers a month. What Is thus indicated in connection with Milwaukee might be strengthened if the relationships with Racine and Kenosha were described. Hammond has its "theatre train" which carries the citizens of that thriving Indiana community to their homes at midnight after an evening spent In enjoying the attractions of the greater Illinois city just over the line to

the northwest. Passengers entering Chicago from the southeast on the early morning trains often observe the heavily laden coaches carrying workmen from the city to Gary and other nearby manufacturing centers in Indiana. Such things are worth noting. Of course there are stretches of unoccupied land. There are sections given up to private estates. It may be years before there is unbroken connection of strets and houses and stores and manufacturing establishments with Wisconsin and Indiana parts of the greater Chicago. But it does not take any lively exercise of the Imagination to forecast a situation when a magnificent city of millions of people will stretch along the lake, crossing the artificial lines that separate state from state. The dream of the hopeful Nebraska professor who predicted 20,000,000 population hereabouts some day may not be realized. But already the real Chicago is far greater territorially than its present extensive boundaries indicate."

WASHINGTON WELCOMES BRAVE URIU. Washington has extended a hearty welcome to Vice Admiral Baron Sotokichi "Uriu, chief of staff of the Japanese navy, who is spending several weeks in that vicinity prior to his departure for Europe. Vice Admiral Uriu is a graduate of the Annapolis naval academy and in recognition of this fact the alumni of the academy have arranged to give him a dinner tonight at the Metropolitan Club. Monday there will be a reception in his honor given by Representative John W. Weefts of Massachusetts, who was a classmate of the admiral's at Annapolis. Later in the week he will attend the graduation exercises at the naval academy. Vice Admiral Uriu is regarded as one of the world's greatest naval authorities. After his course at the Annapolis academy he was detailed to the Naval College of Japan in 1S81, and appointed a member of the committee for compiling a gunnery textbook. Having seen service afloat on several ships, he was appointed aid to the Minister of Marine, promoted lieutenant commander and detailed to the General Staff Department. He was appointed captain of the Akagi in 1891, chief of the Yokosuka Naval Barracks and naval attache at Paris in 1892. On his recall from France he was appointed superintendent of men-of-war and ordnance construction, and his promotion to rear admiral and appointment as chief of the First Bureau, Naval Staff Department, followed in 1900. During the Russo-Japanese war Vice Admiral Uriu commanded the squadron which destroyed the Russian cruisers Variag and Korietz in Chemulpo harbor, and at the battle of the Sea of Japan he commanded the sec

ond division of the fleet under Admiral

in charge of the staff and naval construction of the Japanese navy at Sase

bo and Tsushima. On his present Admiral is accompanied by the Baroness anese girls to be graduated from Vassar MUST BE FIT

A number of interesting laws enacted by the last session of the Wash

ington legislature will come into effect today. Among the new measures the one that has attracted most attention is the marriage law, which makes it necessary for a person applying for a marriage license to submit physicians' certificates and affidavits showing that the two parties concerned are physically and mentally fit to bring healthy children into the world. The new law also provides that women must be of legal age, fixed at eighteen years, and men twenty-one years; also, that the parent cannot give consent unless the girl is more than fifteen years of age. The penalty for giving false information or performing such marriage is a fine of not more than $1,000 or imprisonment in the State penitentiary for not more than three years, or both. The new criminal code to become operative tomorrow makes it a misdemeanor for the owner or employe of "any drinking saloon or music hall where intoxicating liquors are sold" to "knowngly permit to enter such saloon or sell or give any intoxicating liquor to any female person." The same rule will apply to any common drunkard or any person in an intoxicated condition or any felon.

SOME DEMOCRATIC INCONSISTENCY. There is a deep dank silence in the Democratic camp, if there is such a camp over the action of the Democrats in Congress, who voted to put 2o per cent, more tariff on iron ore than the republicans wanted. And yet your democrat professes to be a free trader and a shouter for a tariff for revenue only. It would be harder to find a better or more glaring example of inconsistency. You hear on all sides the denunciations of the U. S. Steel corporation as a trust, an octopus. The democratic press lovingly and lingering gloats over the octopus' fangs, whatever they are, and how they are taking the life out of the American people. The Republican House placed iron ore on the free list, but the republican senate with the ready assistance of a bunch of democratic senators added a twenty-five per cent, tariff. Whenever you hear of a democrat talking about free trade, just put that to him.

THE RESULT IN

The surprising result of the county local option fight in LaPorte county, has given both the "wet" and "dry" forces, something to think about in Lake county. LaPorte's election brings the question of county option nearer to this county than has any other that has been held, and if comparisons can be made with LaPorte county, Lake county would be almost sure to go "wet." This" Is a circular process of reasoning, however, because the result might be reversed entirely although there are few thinking men who would want to go on record with a bet that Lake County would go dry and her 650 saloons 3ut out of business.

Copyright, 190'J, by American Press Association. DO SOMETHING FOR. SOMEBODY. Recipe for unhappiness: Think only of yourself, care only ' for yourself, labor only for yourself. Mix aud use daily. If you doubt the formula, look about you. Note the effects of self love from ennui to suicide. A new, clean play now being produc- ! ed in New York city illustrates the ex- I treme effect of selfishness: A rich old man has lived a self cen-1 tcred life. lie thinks only of his Ills. . He takes fright at every symptom of disease. He concludes he is In a bad way. Laarned physicians confirm his fears. He decides to commit suicide. The miserable old man takes a room ' in a chap tenement on the east side : and prepares to blow out his brains. Just as he raises the pistol to his !

temples a ragged, forlorn young girl ; steps into the room. She tells the old man of her troubles real troubles, troubles that harass the mind and harrow the heart. But she says she Is not complaining; she is making a brave fight to save her womanhood and is hopeful of victory. The old man becomes ashamed of his troubles, which, after all, are largely imaginary troubles. lie becomes interested in the girl's brave and hopeful fight. He throws away the pistol. And the sequel of the play is the restoration of the old man to health and the success of the girl. In helping another the old man helped himself. j Which is the law of life. j The play is but another repetition, in ; fact, of the old story of the man who, : noting that his comrade is freezing to death, forgets his own growing numbness and works to restore the other, with the result that both are saved. So that the recipe for happiness is the reverse of the other one. It fs Think of others, care for others, work for others. Apply liberally. Fortunately for society, we are so constructed that to be happy we must make others happy. Selfishness carries its own punishment. Generosity is its own reward. Trite and commonplace? Yes, but true! Self luxury leads to actual misery. Selfishness is such a burden that men will drink to drown it or kill themselves because of It. The recipe is correct. Do something for somebody. Do something worth while and be happy. Do nothing and be miserable. SHUCKS From the Diary of Si.

Bev. Joseph C. Hartzell, one of the famous missionary bishops of the Methodist Episcopal church, was born in Illinois, June 1, 1842, and received his education at Illinois Wesleyan university and the Garrett Biblical institute. He united with the Central Illinois conference in 1S68 and soon became prominent in the affairs of the church. In 1888 he was elected secretary of the Freedmen's Aid and Church Extension society and in 1S9G he was elected missionary bishop to Africa. In his many years of work in Africa Bishop Hartzell has accomplished great re forms of a political as well as an educational nature among the various tribes and colonies. Numerous writers and travelers familiar with his work have ranked him with Stanley and Livingstone as a guide and reformer in the dark continent.

The freak of freakss, captured by Jap Surprise, on exhibition at Burnham Bros.' hardwara store, la being looKea ai ny large crowds, it is a. specie of an owl, chicken, hawk .nd monkey. It has a monkey head and face, owl wings and body and leet, and legs like a chicken hawk, and thus far not one has been found that ls able to give it a name. It eats mica lika an owl, cuts up funny capers like a monkey and its claws looks like they would hold fast to a chicken If once within their prey. If still alive Mr. Burnham expects to get a big rakeoft from the most wonderful freaks ever captured alive by charging an admission to see it during the automobile races.

Prunes, like the apple and the peanut, are not appreciated In accordance with their high food value. Like the gocber, the prune is "humble," associated with the menu of a cheap boarding house, but repeated experiments, in comparison with figs, dates and other sugar fruits, have shown the prune to be the best of all foods of this class; not only because it yields an easily digested supply of carbohydrate or heat giving food, but because it contains a small percentage of acid (the Santa Clara much less than the Washington prune), which is a natural antidote to auto-Intoxication; and prunes have a natural laxative effect. Dates are good only during winter and figs are liable to be spoiled at any season, but dried prunes, unless they h3ve been much exposed during hot weather, are nearly always safe without boiling. Thoroughly washed and soaked for 12 hours, the Santa Clara prune is ready to eat without sugar. It alone, eaten slowly, forms a substantial though light meal, one that will not interfere with sleep, even of the most delicate, if eaten in moderation and very slowly.
