RANDOM THINGS AND FLINGS

THE DEATH OF MARK TWAIN. OaMant oM Mark Twain! Father of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn! Lovable creator of sweet thoughts, of kindly barbless humor! Who will not mourn him; who will not mis him? Who has not been ecstatically thrilled by his quaint stories of adventure has missed something in life that he can get nowhere else. The boy who has not pored laboriously over Mark Twain's splendid stories up in the attic of his home while the rain pattered music on the shingles and rapturously gloried in the deeds of Tom and Huckleberry, does not know what true boyhood is. The adult who once having read those stories of the lovable Twain's when a boy cannot in the quiet of his home

enjoy reading them to his own boys and girls and get more pleasure out of the reading than he did before, is "fit for treason and war's alarums." There

was only one Mark Twain. It is almost too much to hope that there will ever be another. At least there will not be for us in this generation. His

humor was inimitable, his originality striking. Those of us who loved him

will read of his passing out with a sigh of regret that he is gone; of gratl tude that we; have known him. The world needs more Mark Twalns

would there were more of them! May the ashes of this one whom we

idolize rest In peace.

PERHAPS Judge Ames jury has gone out fishing. .

TTTE thousand Immigrants landed at Ellis Island yesterday again. Think of

the :aew fans rushing over to this country.

IT IS ONLY A BEGINNING. Hammond ls a step nearer manual training. But only a step. Yesterday it was reported that the board of education has authorized the employing of a director of industrial training. This Is a good deal like employing a gardner before you get the garden. The people of Hammond may think they are about to have installed a complete system of manual training, but they are mistaken If they do. Before an up-to-date course of manual training is established in Hammond there will have to be carpenter shops, machine shops, rattem shops and drafting rooms thoroughly equipped and ready for use. A number of trained manual training teachers will then have to be employed, and after all of this is done it will take a year to organize the work. And then there will have to be a full ..equipment for Jho teaching otsdo-ottfrt?-ranges will have to bV bought, cooking utensils will have to be purchased, and a room will have to be provided for an up-to-date kitchen. And bo it will be seen that the employment of a director of industrial training is only the first step. Hammond will still be far behind other progressive cities of its size who have been providing this training for their students for several years. All Hammond has ever' done is to make believe, that it has a course In manual training. Until thousands of dollars have been spent for equipment It would be foolish for Hammond to point to the fact that It had caught up with the times and was really providing manual training in the schools. In the meantime the board and Superintendent McDaniel should be congratulated for taking the step, no matter how tiny It was, for there must be beginning. 1

ALL WANT JOBS IN LAKE COUNTY. According to statistics obtained by this paper, there are nearly one thousand school teachers who want to teach school In this corner of the little old commonwealth of Indiana. Over four hundred applications for positions have been filed with the Gary schools' superintendent alone. Two hundred more want to teach in Hammond, while the rest of the cities and towns in Lake c6unty divide up the balance of the applications. What does it mean? - ; Simply this, that the Lake county schools have a fame that has reached all over the United States. Simply because the advertising that the rapidlygrowing cities of the Calumet region have received, has caused these hundreds upon hundreds of teachers, who by the way, represent nearly every state in the Union, to look toward Lake County, Indiana, for their future. Shortage of school teachers, indeed! Not in these parts. Other cities in the state and In the United States may complain, but not our cities. It is but another proof of the fact that all eyes are- upon us. It is but another proof that it is most desirable to be one of Lake county's teaching corps in her magnificent school system.

HONOR TO WHOM HONOR BELONGS. Orr moat esteemed and respected brother, Editor E. E. Woodcock, of the Lowell Souvenir loyal to his home town to a superlative degree, and that honored veteran editor, H. H. Ragon of the Lowell Tribune, take this paper severely to task . because It mentioned the fact that Lowell's young orator, MUford McNay, acquired tralnng at Earlham college and also because it ventured to say that surprise was evinced at the contest that young Mr. -McNay won the declamatory honors. THE TIMES would be the last one to detract from the young man's victory. He covered himself with glory and is entitled to a rich share of credit, but that does not signify that the other contestants should not be praised. We still insist that surprise was evinced at the judges' decision, and do so with th knowledge that everyone Is entitled to his oplnon. One of Lowell's citizens, who sat in the Lowell box, declared that he was surprised at the Judge's decision and THE TIMES therefore ought to be pardoned for mentioning the fact, and yet give Mr. McNay credit. We are proud enough of the young man as a representative Lake county boy to hope that he will win many further oratorical honors and some day he may send his voice in behalf of the people of Lake county, resounding through the corridors ot the House of Representatives at Washington.

AN ENGLISH VIEW OF TAFT. To preach reform and stir trp ptrblic impatience with corruption and atrosee Is a useful work, but it ls easier than constituting a system for giving real effect to the vague and confused wishes of the people.'. For doing this work President Taft has qualities not possessed by his predecessor, and if time and opportunity are given to him there ls no doubt that he will effect very beneficent reforms. But for a man who builds firmly upon the foundation of exlsiting law time ls necessary, even when he has a free hand, and President Taft's hands are not free by any means. The American public will probably not realize that whatever chance there may befor reform lies in trusting the president and giving him power to overbear the enemies of reform in hia own party and elsewhereLondon Time,

YOU remember we said three

months ago, it would be Beverldge vs

Taggart, and there's little doubt as to

the outcome.

A. purposes. The good Lord only knows there's a place that needs It. FOLLOWING the announcement in THE TIMES last night that Tom Taggart would be a candidate for senator, there was a heavy frost all over Lake county. j WE are highly edified by reading the account of a rich girl who walke'd 10S miles. Of course she was beautiful until you looked at her picture in the papers. GOVERNOR Fort, of New Jersey, says he doesn't know of anything a man can't do that a woman cannot do Just as well. How about striking a match, gov.? - . THE other day some of the papers said that William Randolph Hearst had gone democratic. Notice this morning that he went republican yesterday. How about it?

Mrs. Anna Zimmerman of Kokomo, who, given legal notice to vacate the premises at 817 South Purdum street, raised the American flag above her door and defied the entrance of the officers and Walter Percival, Englishman and owner of the property, has won a compromise. The suit against her has been stricken from the docket on the agreement that she retain the rent in controversy and that her landlord pay the costs of the suit. She will move from the house today.

Backache Ell cans Dying Elidneys A Eemarkable Treatment That Saves the Kidneys. How You May Cure Yourself Quickly

and Thoroughly. With the progress of science comes one remarkable treatment for kidney diseases. It has been so thoroughly tested and Its results havs proven so. revolutionary that a well-known firm In Michigan has undertaken its distribution into every part of the country. Those who suffer from kidney trouble and the disease resulting from it will be pleased to know that every package of this treatment is thoroughly guaranteed. This should assure at last a positive cure to every sufferer. Every man and woman should know that backache is usually a well-defined symptom of advancing kidney disease which may end fatally unless treated in time; that rheumatism and bladder trouble are caused from nothing more nor less than kidneys that do not filter the poison from the blood; that dropsy, Brlght's disease, diabetes and bladderstones are caused by bad kidneys. Once they are made to work properly, these diseases should quickly disappear. This Is done by . the new treatment, tr. Derby's Kidney Pills. We urge everyone who has pain In the small of the back, proruse or scanty urination, pains in the bladder, cloudy or foul urine, not to fail to get a package today of Dr. Derby's Kidney PUls, and drop all other kidney treatments. Senator Stevenson of Washington, writes from Olympla: "There ls no question about the efficacy of Dr. Derby's Pure Kidney Pills in curing

kidney and bladder trouble. I know whereof I speak." Dr. Derby's Kidney Pills are now old at all drug stores 60 pills 10 days treatment 25 cents. If you would Ilka to try them first, ask your druggist for a free sample package. Thau buy a, package; you will not reret it.
