Prince Miguel of Braganza. who ia

his marriage two years ago to Miss
Anita Stewart of New York, was born at Richenau, Lower Austria, September
187S. He is the eldest son of Prince
Miguel Marie Charles of Braganza,
known aa the pretender to the Portu
gese throne, who has long claimed the sovereignty of Portugal through his father, the late King Miguel I., duke of Braganza, who reigned over the country for six years. The mother of the younger Miguel was Princess Elizabeth
of Thurn and Taxis. He Is related by
marriage with the royal house of Ba
varia and the ducal houses of Parma, Luxembourg and Austria. Prince Miguel Is widely known In European
court society, but owing to his spendthrift habits he has never enjoyed popularity, even among those who ar
dently supported the claims of his
father to the throne of Portugal.

WHY FACTORIES COME.
The Hammond Steel Barrel company turned down a bonus proposition in Napoleon, O., came to Hammond and paid $10,000 for a factory site and
will build a plant to employ 100 men.
The Ohio city that wanted to locate this factory offered a site to induce its promoters to build up their industry there, Hammond not only
would not give a bonus, but insisted that the company buy its own man
ufacturing site. The difference between the Ohio and Hammond proposition is the dif
Terence In the freight rates on the raw material which goes into the make
up of steel barrels. ...
From the nearest steel mills to Napoleon, O., the freight on a car-load of steel is $28. From the nearest steel mills to Hammond the freight on
a car-load is $7, or one-fourth as much.
This explains why it is that the Hammond Steel Barrel company could afford to pay $10,000 for a factory site In Hammond rather than accept
one as a gift In the Ohio city. N .
It gives the far-seeing business man an idea of what a tremendous in
dustrial development is in store for the cities of the Calumet region as one after another of these concerns, which manufacture articles of steel, locate
here and build up great manufacturies.
And it stands to reason that if the Hammond Steel Barrel company had a competitor in Ohio that was paying $28 a car for the freight on its raw
material, while the local company was paying only $7, that it would very
soon be compelled to move to Hammond in order to stand the competition

, THE VALUE OF FARM LANDS.
Just as soon as lot of these proposed trolley lines begin to operate there
will be a big increase in farm values in this region. Our only big Inter-
urban line, one of any length, the South Shore, traverses an arid sand dune
country. It touches no agricultural territory in the Calumet region.
Once the trolley leads to Crown Point, Hobart, Valparaiso, Dyer, Lowell and other nearby points, the center of rural districts, farm lands will take
on new prices. A TRIBUTE TO BRENNAN.
The action of the grand exalted ruler of the Elks lodge in naming John
A. Brennan of the Gary lodge as deputy grand exalted ruler for the Northern District of Indiana, is a high tribute not only to Mr. Brennan, but to the three-year-old lodge as well. Mr. Brennan has been honored at home. He has served as the exalted ruler of his own lodge. Now he steps into a wider range of fraternal activities. That the grand exalted ruler has done well will be acknowledged by all who knw the Gary man.

CAXT FIGYRES HIS RELATIONSHIP.
Harvey Yauky, a well-known and wealthy middle-aged farmer, living east of Newcastle is trying to flgare out the relation of himself and his wife. This comes about through the issuance of a marriage license to the father of Mr. Yauky, Jacob Yauky, also a wellknown farmer east of the city, and Mrs. Jane Doctor, the mother of Mrs. Harvey Yauky. It Is simply a case of Harvey Yauky's ' father marrying Harvey Yauky's mother-in-law. The conclusion has been reached that, besides being man and wife, they are stepsister and -epirothe t other. Harvey Yauky's father Is his father-in-law and Mrs. Harvey Yauky's mother is her mother and her mother-in-law. Yauky's mother-in-law Is also his stepmother, and Mrs. Yauky's stepfather Is likewise her father-in-law. BELIEVES LEE WILL CONFESS.

A LESSON FOR. YOU. Why did Mile. Lantelme die? ( The question vexed the gay world of Paris a few weeks ago -when the beautiful actress deliberately walked over the side of her yacht and was drowned. From a worldly point of Tlew she had everything she could desire. Lantelme was a famous beauty, a successful actress and the wife of a millionaire. Her fine house was in the most aristocratic section. She bad splendid jewels, horses, automobiles, a steam yacht. Now, it was asked Why should a woman who had everything her heart could desire throw away her life? ,1s such a thing conceivable? f Yea.
To have everything you want la not to make you happy. This woman had
nothing left to desire. And to desire
Is human. So long as we desire and
strive we live. When there is nothing
more to desire or strive for we die.
Alexander sighed for more worlds to
conquer.
We are like Alexander. Thero can
be no zest In life without the chancer
to conquer. Alexander sighed because
all the sparkle was taken out of life.
When we have everything we want life is flat, stale and unprofitable.
When the Incentive of tomorrow's
struggle Is gone tomorrow Is gone. Fuiiaess is satiety.
Mile. Lantelme, waose youth and
talents had smoothed the way for ber feet from girlhood, had sounded every
note in the gamut of pleasure. There was nothing left to live for. On the other hand, there was this: Weariness and vexation of spirit, the vanity of luxury, the tire of dissipation, fear of the loss of fame or beauty. Do you see? You may say truly, "What pleasure this woman might have found in doing good!" But her life was not keyed to benevolence. She was shut up to selfish enjoyments. When these palled upon ber she was eager to throw her ife away. And you ? Do you envy the idle rich? Do you not see when fortune leaves nothing to be desired life is intolerable? What yon call the bitterness of strife and anxiety is the real source of your life's sweetness.

get along?
Truly, I think we just shouldn't; at
least not for long.
Any more than a machine would be able to run very long without any oil. You don't like the implied comparison? You think it degrades mothers? I don't know. It seems to me that ell has a pretty important function. Just think if there were no oil to be found anywhere in the world, how long would ail the vast fabrics of ma
chinery that makes modern lite what it Is the huge pumps which send the water into our kitchens and our bathrooms, the machinery that manufactures our clothes and our furniture and ten thousand other things for each day's use, the motor, the dynamo and the steam engine that minister to our daily need or pleasure how long would they all run smoothly, lf at all, without oil? About as long, I fancy, as the complicated machinery of family life would endure. If mothe rs began to claim the privileges of obstinacy and bad temper and sulklness that fathers and brothers and sisters claim at least once In a while. Think of It some day when you are fretting or sulking or finding fault about something, and mother poor little mother, who Isn't the least in the world to blame Is trying to smooth things over. Think how strange It would seem If mother should turn the tables, expect the rest of the family to soothe her. Think of it and thank God that He made those wonderful bgines called mothers and made them willing and glad to be the oil of society. RUTH 'CAMERON.

Two little dogs, valued at not more than 60 cents each, were the cause of a f 10, 600 damage, suit filed by Irvln E. Ellis of Bloomlngtoh, by his next friend. William Ellis, against Ben Roberts. They are farmers of Polk township, and Irvln Ellis is twelve 3'ears old. It Is charged that Robert's dog attacked Ellis's dog. Ellis says when he was trying to separate them Roberts shot, but Instead of hitting the dogs the charge struck him in the foot.
QUEENSLAND PEARL DIVERS The Queensland diver gets into hia dress at daybiwpak, steps on to the ladder over the side and fastens the life
line around him. The tender screws on the glass face, the pumps are start
ed, and down goes the diver to look for
shell. If he Is on ground where shell Is plentiful he fills his bag, then allows
his dress to fill with air, which brings
him to the surface, when he is haued
to the boat by the life line. He emp
ties his bag on to the desk and goes down for another bagful. Some of the divers occasionally work in twentyfive fathoms. The greatest danger with which the diver has to contend
Is paralysis, and, knowing the danger he runs, he sometimes demands J1.000
in advance, and this amount is some
times lost to the pearler through the real and daring of the diver. London
