"Saved Her Life."

tny MRS. JOIIN WALLET, of Jefferson, Wis., than whom none Is more highly esteemed or widely known, writes. "In 1S90 I had a severe attack of LaGrippe and at the end of four months, in spite of all physicians, friends and good nursing could do, my lungs heart and nervous system were so completely wrecked, my life was despaired of, my friends giving me up. 1 could only sleep by the use of opiates. My lungs and heart pained me terribly and my cough was most aggravating. I could not lie In one position but a short time and not on my left side at all. My husband brought me Dr. Miles' Nervine and Heart Cure and I began t iking them. When I had taken a half bottle of each I was much better and continuing persistently I took about a dozen bottles and was completely restored to health to the surprise of all."

It is estimated that in five years half the population of Cuba will be American, if peace is maintained on the island. Down in Georgia if a darkey talks "too much" he is lynched. This is modern civilization with a vengeance A wealthy bachelor farmer of Henry county, named Henry Clay Morris, committed suicide recently because his taxes were high. Poor man: Wisconsin is the first state to enact a stringent anti-pass law. A bill just passed prohibits the use of a railroad pass by any state official, under a penalty of one to five years in the state prison or a fine of $300 to 5500. If mobs and mob laws are not overwhelmed by an indignant public opinion, says the Nashville, Tenn., American, no one, white or black, will be safe, for the law's protection will be as it seems to be fast becoming, a myth. Mrs. Anna George who has been on trial for her life at Canton, Ohio, charged with the murder of George Saxton, a brother of Mrs. VVm. McKinley, has been acquitted. The verdict was greeted with enthusiasm at Canton. Mrs. George has already received an offer of $500 a night to join a dramatic company. The Independent desires to call attention to the splendid column of professional cards which it presents. The public will readily recognize the fact that the professional men here represented are right to the front in their respective professions. They realize that it is an accommodation to the public to keep their locations constantly in the fore front. Hence their cards in the Independent. The publisher of the Independent is indebted to the Hon. Daniel McDonald for a copy of his work on the "Removal of the Pottawattomie Indians from Northern Indiana." It certainly is a splendid work and has doubtless required much labor and research in its preparation. It contains interesting history which will

be appreciated by all students of Indiana, and especially so by those in this section of the state. The publisher of this paper gives the "Removal of the Pottawattomies" a prominent place in his library.

The Stewart-Westerman rolling mill of Marion, Ind., has notified its employes, 120 in number, that beginning May 1, their wages will be advanced 10 per cent. The proprietors of the establishment recently declined overtures to enter a trust, preferring to remain on an independent basis and increase the wages of their employes. On the other hand, the Falls City car works, at Jeffersonville, which recently en tered a trust, has advanced the wages of its employes, numbering about 1,200, 10 per cent. Putting this and that together, does not throw much light on the relation of trusts to wages. Indianapolis Journal. The true marriage law passed by the Wisconsin legislature and which now awaits the governor's signature, sounds the death knell to irresponsible marriages and puts an end to Milwaukee's reputation as a Gretna Green. The bill provides that every couple desiring to marry must procure a license from the county clerk at least five days before the ceremony can be performed. In cases where one of the parties may be on a death bed or when, for any other reason, it is necessary that the ceremony shall be performed without the license and without the five days' delay, they may be married by securing an order from the judge of any court of record permitting an immediate marriage. Open to Public Thursday. Brightside The Julia E. Work Children's Home was opened to the public yesterday and will be on every Thursday hereafter from 9 a. m. to 4 p. m. Visitors will please ring the children's bell at the northeast entrance. Parents and relatives of the children may visit them the first Friday of each month. No visitors will be admitted on Sunday. Persons calling on business will find the Supt. or her assistant in the otlice after 11 a. m. each day except Sunday. "Urightside" is the successor of the Northern Ind. Orphan's Home late of Laporte, and is conducted on the same general lines. The placing out of mentally and physically sound children is still the feature of the work, but special attention is also given the training of the incorrigibles of both sexes, and the care of the mentally and physically de f active. Boys will be taught farming, gardening and the care of stock, and the girls will be thoroughly instructed in all branches of housework, sewing and mending. The home is established under the laws of the state and is subject to 6uper vision and inspection by the board of State Charities and also by the several boards of commissioners or other county officials in counties patronizing the Institution. These several boards of commissioners with the township trustee constitute an advisory board for the local management, and the Home will be further represented in each county by a local committee, appointed by the Supt. and approved of by the board of commissioners. The names of this committee will be given later. The home is entirely non-sectarian and the management is vested in Mrs. Work as general manager and Supt.; Annie A. Barr, Hanover, Ind., assistant Supt.; Zonette Shipler, Chicago, housekeeper and industrial teacher; Dona Money, Yale, 111., attendant to the older children; Anna Dorsy, Valparaiso, nursery governess; Robert Sanders, Hanover, Ind., farmer. Children under sixteen are admitted to the home upon an order of a township trustee and also as boarders when the board at the legal rate is secured by the party making application for the admission of the child. County charges are restored to parents or friends only on the written order of the township trustee committing them there. Application for the adoption of children must invariably be accompanied by the written reccommendation of at least three responsible citizens in the vicinity of the noma oflered. No child will be allowed to go out as "help" or on other terms than are provided in the "agreement" which calls for the same care and treatment as an own child, until it attains its majority.

BU11NED TO DEATH.

AWFUL FATE OF MRS. TILLIE HASLANGER AT SOUTH BEND. She wan a Niece of M.'s. Anna Ilaftlanger of this City Also a Cousin to Mrs. Fred Kuhn, Mrs. fieorge llalin and .Mrs. Joseph icl Died Twentv-four Hours After the Accident. yrs. Tillie Haslanger, aged 37 years, of South I5end, met a horrible death Thursday. She was cooking supper when in some way her clothing caught fire. She ran into the yard, the flames enveloping her. Neighbors succeeded in extinguishing the llames but not until her hips and arms had been burned to a crisp. The unfortunate woman lived about 21 hours after the accident. She was a niece of Mrs. Anna llaslanger of this city and a cousin of Mrs. Fred Kuhn, Mrs. Joseph Eich and Mrs. (Jeorge Ilahn. The South Uend Times has the following account of the accident: "Mr. and Mrs. Frank Ambos, sr., went to Elkhart Wednesday with the Odd Fellows to take part in the celebration and in their absence, their widowed daughter, Mrs. Tillie Ilaslanger, aged about 37 years, came to their home, 410 North Wood street, to prepare supper. She was working, about 5:30 o'clock around a small stove, from the door of which, when opened, coals would occasionally drop, owing to some defect. The first thing her near neighbor, Mrs. John Leuscb, kuew,Mrs. Haslanger ran out into the yard and toward her, ecreamiog with pain and the llames rolling high above the head of the unfortunate woman, the lire appearing to have started in the rear of her dress. Mrs. Leusch ran to her assistance as also did Druggist Kissel who happened to be passing and their joint efforts resulted in the extinguishing of the flames though not until the poor woman had been burned to a crisp above the hips, one arm being burned to the bone while there was evidences that she was burned inwardly in inhaling the (lame. The unfortunate woman was given every attention and Dr. Stoltz was called and did all he could to relieve her great agony. After the burning she was unconscious or in a semi conscious state mo6t of the time. The manner in which her clothing caught fire will probably never be known. She could not explain it and her defective eyesight toas the probable reason that the llames secured such a headway. Mrs. Ilaslanger is Mr. Ambos' daughter by a former marriage. The many friends of the family will deeply sympathize with them in this terrible affair. The unfortunate woman died at 3:55 p. m. That afternoon she fell into a stupor from which she could not be aroused and the physician was again sent for." A Color Picture Fraud. Two Muncie society ladies eent 4 in response to a metropolitan daily advertisement which said for $1 a firm would send an apparatus for coloring pictures ia a life-like manner, the firm likewise agreeing to furnish the photographs on which the work was to be done, and said that if the work performed was satisfac tory, the pay would be sent to the one doing the work at the rate of $4 a hundred pictures colored. Several times was $4 sent and pictures sent in, but each time the answer came, "Unsatisfactory." United States secret service oflicials dropped in at Muncie the other day and interviewed the ladies, telling them that they were of thousands who had been victimized by these swindlers and might have to go to Washington to testify. Walnut Stumps Preserved. S.J. Peabody and the Boston firm who are cutting the 015,000 lot of walnut timber on the woods tract in Wabash county, are exercising care and economy in the work. Instead of felling the walnut trees in the usual manner, cutting two or three feet above the ground, the exporters dig carefully about the roots of each giant and sever the roots far from the stump, leaving the tree practically in tact. Every pound of the timber is thus saved, the stump, which a few years ago was counted worthless, being worked into costly veneer. It will take two years to remove all the timber from the 1,100 acre tract. . M. Packard's New l'otiitinn. A special from Indianapolis gives the information that at a special meeting of the board of directors of the Capital National bank, Ü. M. Packard, of Plymouth, Ind., formerly national bank examiner, who resigned last month, after six years' continuous service, was unanimously elected a director and vicepresident.

The Indiana fish commissioner, in response to a question relative to fishing in ponds and bayous during May and June, has this to say: "The law prohibits fishing in any way by any device in May and June, and bayous and overllow ponds are considered streams. This is the law and I must enforce it. You will see that as long as hook and line fishing is permitted there can be no protection for the fish in the spawning season. Legitimate fisherman would not damage the lish with hook and line, but men will use all kinds of ritles, wire snares and every device for capturing the fish and then claim they were caught with hook and line. To prohibit fishing in any way, shape or form in those months means protection and that means propagation. When your sportsmen fully understand that portion of the law, they will agree that it is better to forego legitimate fishing at that period than to have no protection whatever." Fell Into a Cellar. Peter Beyler, of Bremen, aged 83 years, while walking oyer a building frame over a cellar, at 117 Dayton street, fell backwards into the excavation, Saturday, cutting a gash in his left cheek and breaking the bone of one leg near the knee. The ambulance was called and Mr. Beyler taken to the home of his daughter, Mrs. U. Gingrich, 510 South Franklin street, he having come here on a visit. His condition is regarded as seriou3. Dr. Stollz is attending him. South liend Times. x Death of Mrs. Jake lloleni. The death of Mrs. Jake llolem occurred Thursday evening at her home in tne country near the Stuck church.
