A woman in a place like this can usually help to make a town pretty clean i. e., if the town needs cleaning and if she gets the appointments with a lot of other "ifs."
But Mr. Knotts has taken great pains to wait until the last two and one-half weekB of his administration
to make the appointment of a woman. He could have rendered Gary a great service by doing this two years
ago for the man who has just quit the presidency of the safety board

IN BELFAST.
A correspondent writes: ln 1787
the Duke of Rutland took a tour in the north of Ireland, and among
other places he visited Belfast. Of it he writes: "It is full of Presbyterians, and was much connected with the Americans during the calamitous contest. It has always been very factious. This is the town where the spirit of volunteering has fixed its throne." Belfast therefore is still the old Belfast, still rebellious still imbued with the spirit of volunteering. Sir Edward Carson cannot claim these results as due to his eloquence. Westminster Gazette.

RAISING LIFE VALUE.
Judge Kenesaw Mountain Ladis, of
Illnois, is a jurist with a decent re
gard for the value of the life of j soldier.
Edward Panek, a private in th
United States Army, was killed on
October 16 in a troop train accident on the Mobile and Ohio Railroad in
Mississippi.
Attorneys for the road went before
the court for legal sancton of a set
tlement out of court witn the dead
man's mother for $750.
Judge Landis practically took the
case out of the attorneys' hands and appointed two accident clams experts
to investigate. The price of settlement was raised to $2,500 by a jury.
Judge Landis made it clear that
iientiment did not figure in his ac
tion, but merely the demands of
quity and justice.
SHOWED It 7.0lt TO WRONG MAX.
William Ash left home to have his razor "honed" Saturday night, according to his statement in the Indi
anapolis Police Court yesterday - after
noon. He missed conection with a barber shop, however, and landed in a saloon. Finally, drawing the razor from his pocket, he asked the bartender to "hone" it. The bartender mistook the pacific act for one dangerous to him and called tha police. The aversion of Judge Collins to persons In
toxicated, with weapons ln their pos
session, Jed him to fine Ash $1 ; and
costs.

FAIL ON THE WORD ''PVX. " Two hundred persons took part In
an old-fashioned spelling bee at Nashville and of that number nearly J.0O fell down on a little word of Just three letters. It was agreed that the "match" should be as near like those of "ye olden time" as possible and ln furtherance of this Idea an old out-of-date spelling book was used. Prof. Goble was "schoolmaster" and he picked the words at random from the volume. For awhile every word given was spelled correctly and then-he camo upon the little word "pyx." Every possible way to spell It, except the correct one, was used time and time and time again. ANOTHER HUNTER KILLED.
