> . . o {53 I'he Ligonier Banner | . . 4 LIGONIER, . INDIANA. e T e p— TREASURE HUNT SEASON. The season of the treasure hunt is once more “on,” and all along the Atlantic coast, from Labrador to the Gulf of Mexico, with side excursions to the islands of the Caribbean sea, optimistic persons who have resurrected some legend of pirate gold ° which seems to them convincing, are touring the face of nature in an attempt to find chests of coin and jewels—or casks of rum. At this point the reader will suspect an anti-climax. The statement is ot so intended. Buccaneers had to cache their stores of solid and liquid provision, and they did not always find opportunity to dig them up again. A tradition of substance attaches to Oak island, in Mahone bay, Nova Scotia, as the scene of a “plant” of valued beverages, and an amiable vagabond who professé¢s to have assisted at its uncovering and to have “drank some of the rum,” is still a questionable ornament of the Bay of Fundy region. . Undeijtedly much treasure of a more désirable quality has beén exhumed during the last century or two and quietly carried away, there being more than ohe reason why discoverers of such loot should hold their tovng‘ues about it. Probably, however, the legend that| gave the clue will persist for centuries to com'e','ﬁlspiring adventurers. yet unborn té spend much valuable time in digging on Jewael island or Gardiners island or Campobello or any one of a hundred other places. |

The possibilities and the utility of the home garden are getting pretty well understood in Kansas City. Last yYear's numerous expeiriments brought profitable results. Wﬁth the City club and the Athenaeum ready to co-operate, ready to give practlcaj suggestions to those who wish to .cultivate garden patches, the home owners of Kansas City should take advantage of this means of bettering the condition of their tables and parti¢ipating in good, wholesome outdoor exercise at the same time, says Kansas City Star. The' cultivation of a little plece of ground cgn do much toward eliminating the/e;xcesses of the grocery bill. The reward is to the enterprlslhg and the industrious. Get the boys and girls interested. It is good for them. It will make them producers.

It is about time to revive those stories about hailstones as big as hen’s egZs. And now the yarn comes from the sea—a veritable tale told by, and not to, the marines. The captain of the British steamer Aureole, arrived at Galveston, says the vessel passed through a remarkable sterm in the Gulf of Mexico, during which damage was done to the rigging and superstructure by the hail, “which ranged in size to larger than hen’'s eggs.”

And as the captain can point to the battered’ ‘appearance of his ship as proof, it would seem that he is quite. beyond suspicion as being a weather faker.-

The old proverb, “Never look a gift horse in the mouth,” is believed- to represent. on the subject to which it refers the collective wisdom of the ages. ‘“Never put a campaign cigar in the mouth” might be proposed for its running mate if half is true which is alleged against the campaign -cigar. However, there are candidates now and then who use real cigars while: working their campaign.

The French seem destined to be the world’s great “bird men.” They lead in aeroplaning, as they led in the development of automobiling. Germany may fill the air; with military dirigibles, but France will soon have swarming clouds of barking planes. In America we have the Wrights and Curtiss; in:- krance they have nearly a dozen inventors whose machines are on the market. L

Cuba’s prompt dispatch of troops and machine guns to its disaffected provinces shows that it is rapidly learning the art of self-government. Taking to the woods is no longer mistaken. for patriotism in that island, but is appraised in its proper relation as an attack on the government.

During his race from London_to Manchester, Paulhan, the French aviator, covered 117 miles in two hours and fifty minutes. It begins to look as though flying -will be a commercial possibility before the present generation is- many years older. ‘

ROYAL WELGOME FOR ROOSEVELT

Vast Throng Greets the ‘Former President at New York.

HE IS MET AT QUARANTINE

Escorted to the Battery by a Great Flotilla—Speeches and Land Parade—Affair Is Spontaneous . and Non-Partisan. ;

New York.—He has come back! Theodore Roosevelt returned to his native land June 18, and was given a welcome home such as was never before accorded to a citizen of this republic. The whole country joined in it, and it was so spontaneous and soo utterly non-partisan that it could not but be most flattering to the former president. - Since emerging from the African jungle the latter part of March, Mr. Roosevelt has been the guest of nearly every European ruler and almost unprecédented honors - have been heaped on him. The reception by his fellow citizens was a fitting climax to his triumphal tour and must have been the most satisfactory event. connected with {t.

publican club of New York and the Hamilton club of Chicago, had chartered regular coast line steamers. Early in the morning this immense flotilla sailed far down the bay, and when, about 9 o'clock, the scouting tugs and motor boats came flying in with the word that the Kaiserin Auguste Victoria was approaching, all made ready for the first greeting. As the big liner came into sight, every whistle on every vessel was tied apen and shrieked the welcome to the returning wanderer. Colonel Roosevelt, with Mrs. Roosevelt and Kermit by -his side, stood on the deck, waving his hand and smiling the familiar smile, and the waiting thousands cheered him again and again. Reception Committee Takes Him.

At Q~tine the necessary"formalities were quickly over and the official reception committee took the colonel and his party aboard its revenue cutter. That vessel at once started up the harbor and all the gaily decorated craft, filled with clubs and private parttes, fell in behind and formed a most spectacular water parade. On almost every boat was a band, and all the way the musicians played at the top of their lungs. The shores were black with people who shouted their greetings to “Teddy” as he passed and the factories and mills added the noise of their whistles to the general din. :

So it went all the way up to Twen-ty-third street, where the _parade turned and made its way back to the Battery. At that historic spot at the lower end of Manhattan island Colonel Roosevelt landed to receive the formal welcome home.

Welcomed ‘by Mayor Gaynepr.

In an enclosure in the center of Battery park were 200 distinguished

“Dead Man” Retumns.

Last July the dead body of a man found hanging to a tree in Weehawken, N. J., was identified at the time by his relatives as that of James Dillon of Hoboken. The body was taken home and duly interred amidst = the mourning of his family. Strange to say the supposed dead man is now at home, alive and well. He made his appearance, to the astonishment and delight of Mrs. Diflon and her eight children, as they were sitting at dinner the other day. Dillon is uncommunicative as to why he went away last summer, and who the dead man is that was buried in his 'place is another mystery.

When Revolt Is Dangerous.

It is not the insurrection of ignorance that is dangerous, but the revolts of intelligence.—Lowell

guests, Including senators, representatives, ambassadors and close personal friends of Mr. Roosevelt. Surrounding this enclosure was another reserved space which was occupied by about 2,500 prominent men and members of the big reception committee, -The cheering and music were almost continuous as the colonel entered the park, but finally quiet was restored and Mayor Gaynor stepped forward and delivered a cordial address of welcome on behalf of the nation and. the Mr. Roosevelt responded brie%t feelingly, and short speeches were made by several other prominent men. Much as he would have liked to be present to greet his predecessor, President Taft was kept away on account of his official position and by a previous engagement. '

Parade Through the City.

When the speech making was over, the parade through the city streetg started. It was originally intended to conclude the reception with a monster parade, and invitations were issued to various organizations throughout the eountry. Within a few days, however, the committee was flooded with so many applications that the parade feature had to be in part abandoned. Organizations from Maine to California and from the Gulf to the Great Lakes requested places in. the line of march, and if the project had been carried out, the procession would have extended from the Battery to the Harlem river and back again, a distance of 20 miles, and the people who had traveled hundreds of miles to see Roosevelt would have been deprived of the pleasure. In order to overcome this obstacle so that no one would be offended, a unique arrangement was adopted by the committee. All organizations that wished to participate in the parade were assigned

certain blocks along the line of march; for instance, one or two blocks were assigned to some visiting club, and the next to the publie, and SO on. :

The procession itself was comparatively small and was led by the mounted police of New York, who were followed by the police band on Toet. Then came the escort of 500 Rough Riders under the command of Robert Hunter of Oklahoma city, president of the organization. Colonel Roosevelt came next in a carriage, and his carriage was followed by a long processlon of vehicles containing the members of the committee and the speakers.

. The procession made its way up Broadway to Fourth street where it turned into - Fifth avenue and proceeded up that thoroughfare to Fiftyninth street, where it disbanded. The route was lined with visiting organizations, and their bands struck up as the procession approached and: continued until it had passed by. In ‘order that Mrs. Roosevelt might share in her husband’s honors and view the procession from an advantageous point, Mrs. Donald McLean, president of the Daughters of the American Revolution, had cabled her an invitation to be the guest of honor at a luncheon at Sherry’s tendered by prominent members of various female organizations. Following the parade, Mr. Roosevelt joined his family and a little later went to his Long island home. 1 . ;

Remarkable Surgical Operatioh.

Resulting from an attack by an enraged bull, a California ranchman, named Schilheimer, had his lower jaw crushed. Surgical aid proved futile to keep the 'crumbling jawbone from rotting away, and gangrene was threatened, until the doctors of a Los Angeles hospital suggested using a calf’'s jawbone to replace it. ‘The remarkable operation proved successful, the living cells of the newly-killed calf’s jawbone uniting with what remained of the man'’s, the grafting process being wonderfully rapid and satisfactory. 5 ‘

STOPS BIG BATILE

JEFFRIES AND JOHNSON CANNOT FIGHT IN STATE OF CALIFORNIA.,

GOVERNOR WON’T PERMIT IT

Chief Executive Instructs Attorney General to Take Steps to Prevent Contest—May Go to Nevada— Courts to Decide Legality.

San Francisco.—Attorney General Webb was ordered Wednesday by Governor Gillett to stop the JeffriesJohnson fistic argument scheduled for July 4. Mr. Webb said that he would take the necessary steps at once. Governor Gillett in a long-distance telephone conversation said:

“I have instructed Attorney General Webb to stop the Jeffries-Johnson fight and I shall expect him to do so.” ° When informed of the governor's action Tex Rickard, who with Jack Gleason is promoting the battle, said: “If Governor Gillett has stated he will not permit us to handle the Jef-fries-Johnson fight in this state, that settles it. We will not attempt to ‘buck’ him. I shall order work stopped on the arena at once and take the fight elsewhere. 1 prefer Salt Lake, but Reno and Ely, Nev. will also receive consideration.”

Jack Gleaason, who was present, voiced the expressions of his partner. The sudden move on the part of the governor threw this fight-mad community into a state of panic. The news flew like a prairie fire and inside -of an hour the hotel lobbies were filled with excited men and the newspaper offices were besieged by hundreds eager for a confirmation of the rumor. _Attorney General Webb furnished the confirmation.

“The governor,” said he, “has directed me to take such steps as may be necessary to stop the fight. This matter has nothing to do with city ordinances or city officials because the action we shall take will proceed under the statutes of the state of California. As to the character of ‘the action which we shall take, I-will say nothing at this time, save that it will be such as is necessary to accomplish the governor’s purpose.” District Attorney = Pickert was amazed when informed of the governor’s action. “Governor Gillett has had one long administration,” sald he, “during which many boxing exhibitions have been promoted in the state and it seems strange that he should single out any one fight as an exception. If one fight is illegal, then all must fall under the ban, and if this fight is stopped all fights within the state must likewise be illegal.”

~ The law of the state of California permits limited round boxing exhibitions. It now remains for the attorney general to prove before the fact that this is to be a prize fight and not a boxing‘exhibiﬁon. The supreme court of the state has never been called upon to define the difference between ' a boxing exhibition and a prize fight, the one being. legal and the other illegal.

BIG DEAL IS UNDER FIRE

Officials of United Wireless Telegraph Company Arrested Charged With Misuse of Mails. !

New York.—President Wilson and Vice-President Bogart of the United Wireless Telegraph company were ta:@gnto custody by TUnited States Marghal Henkel at the company’s ofon Broadway Wednesday and arraigned before United States Commissioner Shields to answer a charge of misuse of the mails.

Chief Post Office Inspector Mayer charges the officials with a gigantic stock-manipulation plan, declaring that the capital of the company, whose assets were about $400,000, had been increased by an interchange .of securities and that the prlce of these shares had been raised arbitrarily to such large_amounts that the company at this time had an apparent stockmarket value of $1,000,000,000. Mr. Mayer states that one of the officers has cleaned up $5,000,000. He says there are 28,000 stockholders throughout the country who have placed their money with the company on the representation of its officers that it had a surplus of nearly s§7, 000,000, when as a matter of fact the company was failing to make its operating expenses. : Mr. Mayer further states that the inside officers of the company were privileged to sell their stock while outsiders were required to accept stock certificates stamped “not transferable until February 11, 1911.” Inspector O’Brien seized the books and papers of the company as evidence in the case. The complainant named in the charge on which the arrests were made is Michael C. O’Brien of Waterbury, Conn. Wilson was released on $25,000 bond and Bogart’'s bond was $lO,OOO.

PINGHOT RAPS THE INTERESTS

PUT. THEM OUT OF POLITICS,

SAYS FORMER FORESTER.

Roosevelt’s Friend in St. Paul Speech Assails the Tariff as Graft——Jolitn Party. Leaders. g

-Bt. Paul, Minn.—Gifford Pinchot, (speaking before the Roosevelt club here Saturday night, scored congress ‘and tbe leaders of both political par ties and characterized {he present government of the United States as a government by and for the special interests.

He demanded the absolute divorce of “the interests” and politics. Here are some of the pointed things Mr. Pinchot said in the course of his speech:

“A representative of the people who wears the collar of the special interests has touched bottom. He can sink no farther.” -

“The people of the United States demand a new deal and a square deal.” i

“The motto in every primary—in every election—should be this: ‘No watch dogs of the interests need apphyt” “The alliance between business and politics is the most dangerous thing in our political life. It is the snake we must kill.” )

“The people of the United States believe that, as a whole, the senate and house no longer represent the voters by whom they were elected, but the special interests by which they are controlled.” ) ;

“Differences of purpose and belief between political parties today are vastly less than the differences within the parties.” ! In discussing the tariff Mr. Pinchot declared that congress -had directly violated the will of the people and thereby shown its alliance with the “interests.” He declared that conservation had captured the nation and that its progress during the ' past twelve months had been amazing.

DOLLIVER REPLIES TO FOES

States Payne Tariff Bill Was Product of Log Rolling by Com bination. ! :

Washington. — Senator Dolliver answéred the critics of the insurgents in a speech delivered in the senate during the discussion of the provision of the sundry civil appropriation bill providing $250,000 to enable the president to gather information bearing upon the operation of the new tariff law.

Mr. Dolliver’'s speech attracted widespread interest and was listened to attentively by senators on both sides of the chamber. It was the reply of the insurgents to the charges of party disloyalty and was a direct challenge to their opponents in the party. The president’s name was freely handled and his speeches were referred to without reserve.

Beginning with the declaration that the tariff discussion had been revived because of the tariff law, Mr. Dolliver declared there was no longer any freedom of conscience or of opinion such as had once made the Republican party strong. :

Senator Dolliver flatly stated that the Payne-Aldrich bill was the product of log rolling by combinations, where to get what he wanted one member was willing to give all the others what they wanted. The so-called experts who advised the makers of the last bill, he said, were not honest. ;

WILL CALL MILITIA

ATTORNEY GENERAL WILL STOP PRIZE FIGHT AT ALL HAZARDS, SUES OUT INJUNCTION WRITS

California Official to Carry Out Order - of Gillett—Fighters Ready to Go Where Promoters Decide—Reno Probably Be Selected.

San Francisco.—" Jim” Jeffries and “Ja¢k” Johnson are ready to fight at any place that the promoters may designate and it is almost certain that they will do battle at Reno, Nev., on July 4 and not in this city. Attorney General Webb has settled the question by declaring that he will call out the militia and arrest the contestants after the first round if the promoters undertake to enter the ring July 4. o Attorney General Webb filed a motion in’' the supreme court Friday for a permanent injunction against the Jeffries-Johnson fight and for a temporary writ against the KaufmanLangford contest. “Tex" Rickard is expected to bring a civil action for damage against the governor and the attorney general, owing to the expense he has incurred in preparing for the fight here. ) That the promoters are preparing to shift the fight to Nevada was made manifest when it was learned that Billy McCarny had been sent to Reno with instructions to procure permits for two matches in that place. It was stated by Joe Woodman, manager of Sam Langford, that one of the per‘mits was for the Langford-Ketchel battle July 2, in the event of an adverse action by the California authorities. The second permit, Woodman said, would be to hold the JeffriesJohnson fight two days later. Governor Gillett declared Thursday that he did not care what opposition

he encountered, he proposed to carry out a clearly defined law and stop the

big fight. He was told that the hotel men and others of this city proposed to deluge him with protests against the action.

“l expected that,” he said, “but no matter how great the number of protests, I will not rescind my order. I will brook no opposition, no matter what its source.” =
