INCIDENTS OF THE FLOOD. i ne run story or tne great floods in the middle west will never be told Incidents of the storm and stress will be timely realing for a long time Here is one rrora a Rensselaer paper last night: "One Indianapolis paper wandered Into Rensselaer yesterday. A traveling man procured . one at Lafayette and brought it to Rensselaer, ' giving it to Warner Bros. As soon as the news that it was here was scattered about there was a great demand for it and it was worn into shreds almost by. this morning. "A copy of the Chicago Tribune of this morning, reached here this . afternoon. A traveling man got it at Shelby from some one who had come there over the C, I. & S, arilroad. He brought It to Rens3elaer , on the local which arrived here this afternoon at about 2 o'clock. It was being read by a half dozen people at the same time at the Ma keever hotel." - One can imagine the good people j of Rensselaer Isolated from tne world and with two only newspapers to give them information drinking in the information. IT is reported that a Chinese ghost pursued a ship entirely across the Indian ocean. And the worst of it is that It won't do its walking at home until China gets that $125, 000,000 loan. " . ' -

Ten ny Hon. READY RESPONSE. The quick response made to the call. for succor from stricken Indiana and Ohio, by the people of the. Calu met region is a splendid tiling. It makes one feel happy to know that 3 UlS .u..,iuS muur,others has played upon them and the notes sounded are mental music. There is an eagerness to give, a zea! to aid the distressed. In Hammond for instance the first day of the call, a thousand dollars were raised in five minutes and in a few hours a $2,500 t car load Of fdbd and clothing was sent out to the flood district. In other cities the subscriptions poured in with astonishing promptitude. We are all brothers and sisters after all. It only needs the common ground of, humanity to bring us all together. These calamities should make us kinder to neighbor and kinder to kin for there is none but Him above who knows what will be next or who will be the nest one. THE suffragists will parade again on April 7. And it is likely that this time they will have protection even if the regular aimly has to be caPe'l out. . PNEUMONIA PREVENTION. The end of winter, far from bringing a termination to the danger from pneumonia, in reality marks the beginning of the season when this disease becomes an extremely serious Cause of increase of mortality. This is true particularly in large cities. In recent years this increase has become more and more marked and is all the more striking because of the decrease in deaths from infectious diseases. Pneumonia has been aptly

I IJT

termed the "Captain of the Men of Death," displacing tuberculosis which for so long occupied that "bad eminence." The most important problem before the medical profession at present is the reduction of the deathrate from pneumonia. Considering the nature of the disease and the intense strain which it imposes on the heart, it is'probably that the only hopefuroutlook for any considerable

reduction in pneumonia mortality ia through the prevention of the disease. The prospect of a cure for It, in the popular sense of that term, accord ing to the Journal of the American Medical Association, has grown less as we have learned more about the diseases. While pneumonia is most frequent -during the colder portion of the year itis not dependent entire ly on low temperature. The disease occurs at all seasons and in . all climates. It does not work its great est ravages in the colder climates, but is rather rare In the cold of high altitudes and is almost never known to occur within the arctic circle. ; In spite of all their suffering from cold, Arctic explorers, escape this danger. Hence we must assume that cold act In conjunction with some other factor in the production of the disease. Pneumonia is favored by lack of sunlight and it occurs among those who are much exposed to dust or who have to breathe the emanations from the lungs of other people. Catarrhal processes affecting the air passages prepare the soil for the Impalntatlon of the germ of pneumonia. It. is particularly a disease of city life and crowded living. With our present knowledge the prospects are hopeful for the control of pneumonia in the future through prevention. This Is of special importaflce to the indi vidual. PRESIDENT the open door open purse. Wilson hasn't closed to China only the A KANSAS medical scientist is going to try two-year, cold-storage eggs on a squad of men. They are luckier than most of us, who have to take the other brands THE SUFFRAGE MOVEMENT. Probably the reason for tho recent rapid growth of the suffrage move ment is the indifference of the male portion of the general public to the matter. The average man says: "I don't believe in woman's suffrage. It gives a lot or fanatical women a chance to make a show of themselves while a few are taking advantage of their opportunity to vote. But what's the difference; let them have their way." To illustrate, the Michigan general assembly granted suffrage to the women of the state a year or two ago. There did not seem to be any objectioriIo the measure. It passed Tor the want of opposition. But yesterday when this same assembly was asked to vote for a reso lution submitting the question of state wide prohibition to the people for a vote, the resolution was lost. So in effect. the Michigan legis lature says, "Oh yes give the.darling3 the right to vote but don't protect them from the heartaches, the bitter disappointment, the poverty, tho sickness, the stunted children, the terrible environment, trie hunger and the distress that follows in the wake of the excessive use of intoxicants. The difference is that the opposition to the temperance movement is backed up by a powerful lobby. The opposition to the suffrage movement

is not. The suffrage movement winning by default. WORST ice famine in ten years is promised the public this summer. Something for you to worry about if you haven't enough now. BIG NEWS. Locally the newspapers are showered In an avalanche of big news. The Omaha and Terre Haute cyclonic disasters would have produced front page copy for several days. But Omaha and Terre Haute were moved back to half-column spaces on inside pages when the Dayton disaster "broke." Concurrent with Dayton came the Peru tragedy as well as a half hundred others. In the midst of it the Bulgars captured Adrianople, an event of world importance, because of the bearing it will have on the war in the east. Also, there was the election of the -two United States senators in Illinois. It is seldom that the president of the United States Is kept on an inside page but in the days of big news he is. ' IF people really believed all that is said about goodness sometimes; they would die of ennui, which to live people would be far worse than being sandbagged. ' THE CHAMPION LAZY MAN. With the spring fever weather th crop or boss lazy men comes to the front. Reading about woman asking divorce shows up one who seems entitled to a blue ribbon. He was so tired he not only wouldn't work, but after his wife had hauled him out of bed and washed and dressed him he only developed enough energy to 'amble out and make love to another girl. NEW Jersey state official says he i the reincarnation of a man who was hanged. Some state officials are re incarnations of men who ought to be hanged that's a cinch. WIS don't blame Mr. McCombs for declining, the ambassadorship to France. He probably wants to stay here' and see the fun. HEARD BY RUBE NOW that the lllinoy legislatchoor hag elected Sissy Ham Lewis and Abe Lincoln's double, It ought "to adjourn at onco. . NEWLY married man begins to realize that he is really married. when he gets up tin the morning and finds the hair brush full of long combings. TALKING about worrying, there is Michigan City which has started in to worry about whether it will have a big Fourth of July celebration. "ELECTRICITY will be the food In the future." -Headline. If such is the case there will have to be an Improvement in the erratic current In Gary or else the natives will starve. WE REFISE TO SPEAK. (From the Chicago Record-Herald.) Nowadays afternoon frocks are generally cut so low in the neck that it ia a necessity to have one's shoulder bones decently covered with a layer of flesh. Is It not sot Silence means assent.

Can't. Got to keep an eye on our Little Calumet. ; "FRENCH LICK IS SAFE." Head line. The' most cheering bit of news since the ilood began. THOSE that lived in the other gen eration can now get out their old books on the Johnston flood and brag about how much worse it was than the Day- j ton disaster. J PHO(iHKSSlVK WAVSiETOWX.) (From the Crawfordsvilie Journal.) Waynetown looked metropolitan on Tuesday morning with bloodhounds and officers of the law on the streets. EVER know anybody that bought a canary that could sing?

"THE Arkansas legislature has abol ished the state militia. The militia interfered with lynching 'niggers.' the favorite Arkansas dutdoor sport.' Muncie Press. Maybe Arkansas has its race tracks and Its brother A. F. Knotts. FUNNY thing about the flood situation is that we don't read any dispatches from Laporte telling how hard that city is trying to break into the limelight as a water-logged place. IT must have been awfully disconcerting to J. Ham Lewis to find that his election announcement was crowded out of the front page by the disaster tidings.

Leishman, who holds th! Important post of the United Rtatea ambassador to Germany, waa born in Pittsburgh, March 28, 1867, and received his education In ' the1 schools of his native city. He entered the Kteel business in 1881 and subsequently became president o the Carnegie Kteel Company. Thia position n - resigned In 1897 to accept appointment as United States minister tn Switserland. Since that time he has been continuously in the diplomatic service, lie was transferred to Turkey in 1901, and in 1906 the post was raised to an ambassadorship. It was during' Mr. irishman's service at Constantinople in 1904 that the United States demanded equal rights and equal protection with subjects of other nations for American citizens and schools in Turkey. , The

Sultan procrastinated, and on Aug. 6 Mr. Leishman Informed Washington that nothing could bo done. The Gov ernment Immediately ordered an American squadron to proceed to Tur key. This step was effective, and a few days later Mr. Leishman' demands were granted. In 1909 Ambassador LeUhman was transferred to Rome and in October, 1911, he was made ambassador at Berlin.
