Peter Knisley went to Bourbon to

spend Sunday. Mr.' and Mrs. J. L. Douglas, of Pierceton spent Thanksgiving in this city with Mrs. D. E. Moore. Mrs. Douglas Is Mrs. Moore's sister. Prof. E. B. Bryan, the Indiana young .man Who has been appointed superintendent of public instruction for the Philippine islands, Is a distant elative of WiULim' J. Bryan. The will of the late Roswell Beardsey of North Lansing, N. Y., who at the time of his death was the oldest postmaster in the United States, be queathed the sum of $300,000. Dr. J. N. Ilurty, secretary of the state board of health, predicts that smallpox will be still more prevalent this winter rban it has been, and that it will be much more virulent in form. Mrs., Fish, wife of Dr. Fish, of Talma, visited Friday evening and over night in this city witti her sister, Mrs. W. II. Love, and went from here to Noble county for a visit of several days. Superintendent Kruyergave the in mates of the county infirmary a big Thanksgiving dinner and treated them to an oyster supper in the eve ning. Forty-eight poor people were happy. Tue "Passion Play'.' presented at the Washington school auditorium under the auspices of the teachers' association. Friday night was one of the finest entertainments ever given in thiscity. Uncle John Jacoby spent Thanks giving at Elkhart and his son, A. D. Jacoby, came home with him to spend Sunday. Del looks "fat and saucy," but he is just as good humored and genial as ever, Mrs. Harsch and Miss Evelyn came down from Walkerton to spend Thanksgiving in Plymouth. Evelyn went to South Bend to attend the St. Joseph county teachers' association today and Saturday. The Thanksgiving dinner of the Parks family was held at the home of Mrs. S. D. Parks, in Bourbon. Sen ator Parks and family, of this city, were there and it is not necessary to say that it was an enjoyable occasion. The wages of six hundred men in the Vandalia shops at Terre Haute have been advanced from 5 to 12 per cent. The advance is not horizontal in one class of labor, but is fixed for each individual, according to his mer it. The Pennsylvania company is prosperous enough to spend ten mil lions in order to increase its prosperi ty. Every day nowadays we see physical demonstrations of the theo rem that nothing succeeds like suc cess. The best thing about a good many of the schemes for spending the state's money that are now being talked of, preliminary to the' assembling of the legislature is that they won't get beyoud the talked about stage of their development. Mr. Choate ate his Thanksgiving dinner at the Cecil which Is a fine large hotel in London, but it is a safe bet that it didn't give him any kneedeep pumpkin pie, with a variegated face of gold and brown like his moth er used to make. The people of Plymouth certainly have reason to be thankful for the splendid entertainment given to them by the teachers of Marshall county Friday night. It was one of the best ever given in this city, and the admission was free. There were more good dinners eaten in the United States Thanksgiving than in any country on any previous day since the world began, because the number of people in this, country able to have a good dinner Is greater this year than ever before. Laporte is 70 years old and is crying for a paid fire department. The town now contains 10,000 Inhabitants and thinks she Is far enough advanced in years and of sufficient proportions to have better fire protection than the volunteer system affords. David Brumbaugh, an insurance agent, formerly of Kewanna, was in Rochester Monday. He was married last week, to a lady In the northern part of the state and was accompanied, here by his bride. They will reside in Plymouth. Rochester Sentinel. .A hunting party from Areos consisting of Harrison Brewer and two sons and M. L. Corey went to Stilwell Wednesday to embark in a house boat and drift down the Kankakee river to where it crosses the Nickel Plate. Perhaps this is fun such weather as we are now having. Insurance men have sent out letters of warning to merchants to be careful in their window displays during the holidays season. The carelessness In. arranging the decorations in many instances has caused fire, making a loss to both merchants and; insu ranee men. " The first taste of winter is a pretty severe one after enjoying such a long stretch of pleasant sun shine. If this is 'squaw winter" we may reasonably expect to have a pretty nice "Indian summer" when it starts in and we would not object if the latter kind of weather should continue till the first of February.

The state loard of.education will hold a special meeting Dec. 18, to de cide whether the text books now used in public schools shall be readopted, revised or replaced with a new series. Another blow at matrimony! The postmaster general has decided that women postal employes who get married will be too busy thereafter to vork for the government. He says a woman ought not to marry a man that she has to support by working for somebody else, The robbery In the postoffice at North Linsing, N. Y., recently, brought out the interesting fact that the postmaster, Roswell Beardsley.has served in that capacity at 'orth Lansing since 1828. Mr. Beardsley is 93 years old and is undoubtedly the oldest postmaster in the United States, both in point of years and of service. Interest in the gas and oil business is being revived at Bremen, and it is likely that another attempt to find one or both will be made. Jacob Bauer is trying to secure leases on enough land north of town to justify a company in undertaking the work, and already has the promise of about 3,000 acres. It is reported that Otto Albert and Miss Nettie White were married at the residence of the bride's parents, near Argos, Wednesday afternoon, Noy. 26, but as we did not receive an invitation or any wedding cake we were at first inclined to doubt it. However Otto is a nice young man and we congratulate him on having won for a bride one of - Marshall county's fairest and best young ladies. The young friends of Miss Irene Kuhn M gave her, a birthday party Thursday evening to remind her that eleven long years of her life had passed and she would only have a few more birthdays before she is a young lady. It was a merry crowd and nobody enjoyed it more than her father, Fred H. Kuhn, who said it was a pleasant holiday evening that carried him back in imagination to the happy days of chilhood. The Bonham family had a Thanksgiving reunion at the home of Homer Bonham in this city. There were present J. M. Bonham and family, and Mrs. J. J. Troinbo, of Albion, M. D. Stanley and family and Mrs. W. H. Stuart and daughter, if Avilla, J. F. Spohn and family of Goshen, and Mrs Bonham, of Albion, who is the mother of the Bonham family. It was a pleasant gathering at a pleasant home and was enjoyed by all present. What does crushed oyster shell do for poultry? 1st. If grinds up the grain and other coarse foods.

At the Presbyterian parsonage In this city, Friday evening, Nov. 28, by Rev. O. S. Thornberry, Mr. Arthur E. Slough, of Bourbon and Miss Dora L. Bishop, of Bremen. The happy couple are among Marshall county's best young people, and have the good wishes and congratulations of hosts of friends. They will make their home in Bourbon. He Needs Some Other Job. Nolen L. Chew of Noblesvillc, deputy auditor of the treasury for the postoffice department, has come to the conclusion that there isn't much in a college education. It is his duty to oversee in a general way the men who are employed at the postoffice building. One of his employes is a manual laborer who is a graduate of Harvard university. He is a single man about thirty-five years old. Mr. Chew says that he is not a bit more proficient in scrubbing floors and cleaning spittoons than several employes on bis force ot African descent who never saw the inside of a college. Should Not be Hasty. A concerted effort is to be made to get the legislature to provide for the establishment of a second normal school. We trust the members will not be stampeded into hasty action. The whole question should be investigated in the most careful manner. One thng is certain, that du ring threefourths of the year, at least, the present normal school does not have half the number of pupils it could successfully teach, and that in the other fourth of the year it had not been taxed beyond its capacity to provide instruction.

A . on Bank Robbery.

The Akron bank was raided, Wednesday, moruing. The bank is the property of Messrs. William Patterson, II. D. and Fletcher Stoner. It is provided with one of the best fire and burglar proof safes in the county, the safe attesting its quality in resisting the explosions and holding the cash. About 3.00 o'clock Wednesday morning four masked men entered the Akron telephone office and took the operators, Roy Leininger and Harry Showalter, securely bound them and ordered them to be quiet and they would not be harmed, otherwise they would returned and stuff their mouths with rags. The transmitter was cut off the switch board so that no tele phoning could be done from Akron to surrounding towns and then the slick Dicks went to Dr. Frank Petry 's office and tied him up in a like manner, made him tell where he kept his revolver, which was taken and then commenced operations on the bank safe. A spike bar was taken from the hand car house which was used in trying to pry the safe open after the explosions failed to accomplish the desired result. The safe had two outside fire-proof door which were blown off, two steel doors and the inside vault on which is the-time lock. The robbers were evidently frightened away as they left the spike bar sticking in the door. The noise of the explosions arroused the occupants of the Hoover hotel and Albert Scott stepped out on the porch to investigate when a couple of shots in the direction of the hotel warned hi:n that it would be safer for him to retire so he made a hasty retreat. After leaving the bank building the cracksmen went to John Arter's barn and stole his team, harness and buggy and made good their escape. The team was found four miles north of Akron Wednesday morning. Rochester Republican. Postoffice Irregulartirs. The dismissal of Clarence M. Slayter does not seem to have improved the service at the postoffice. A letter for C. C. Durr was put in Miss Anna Dunn's box: one for Mr. Burrill in J. C. Bunnell's box; one for city treasurer in county treasuer's box: letter for Mary Brown, Perrysburg, Ind., in Anna Brown's box; letter for B. M. Seybold in John Giller's box; letter for Mrs. Carrie Riddle In Ilerman Alleman's box; letter for Mrs. Lou Lampson taken out and opened; letter for Mrs. C. S. Cleveland and a paper for William O'Keefe in Tribune box: two letters mailed at postoffice Tuesday morning for parties in this city had not reached them at noon toaay. Mr. Slayter did not distribute this'mail and could not tell anybody about it for he is not a part of the postoffice force. Several other mistakes are reported with request to not mention names. There are also several complaints that letters have been delivered cn rural mall routes but we suppose the postmaster will say that is the fault of the mail carriers and accuse them of giving us information. Deputy Postmaster Porter did not distribute this mail. Persons who think they cannot stand this kind of service much longer will soon find it bettered by reporting mistakes to this office. Beggars and Prosperity. "When beggars own bank stock tha country is in no danger of going to ruin for lack of prosperity. " So said Dr. Ilillis of Plymouth church, Brooklyn, in his Thanksgiving sermon. He had in his mind the kind of beggars who solicit alms or a "loan" in the streets or from door to door, pleading poverty and dire distress with some degree of . truthfulness in some cases. Hie idea was, of course, that the country must be prosperous when peo ple are able and willing to give so liberally to beggars tnat they can be come owners of bank stock. A Sad Death. Monday of last week Mrs. Charlotte Hess, wife of J. O. Hess, was so fear fully burned at her home in South Bend that she died on Thursday. She was compounding some varnish for furniture and was heating the material in a pan on a stove and it bubbled up and ran .oyer the -top of the pan, Mrs. Hess attempted to lift the pan from the stove but the varnish on the stove ignited and thus ignited that in the pail in her hands. She dropped the blazing mass at her feet, her clothes caught fire and she was fatally burned. The remains were brought to this county Friday and the funeral ser vices were held Sunday at Argos Cbristain church. ; Deceased was the daughter of Adam Listenberger, was 22 years old, and was a lady respected by all who knew her. - f . ; t " The young husband and bereaved parents and other relativas certainly have the sympathy of the entire community. , , . , . .

President Roosevelt Tells a South Carolinian His Position on the Point. WILL NOT BAß A MAN OFFICIALLY i For the Sole Reason That He Ig Black Another Kine of ' Open Door" Is Indicated. Washington, Nov. 28. The president has sent the following communication to a prominent citizen of Charleston. S. C. It is marked "personal" and dated at the White House, Nov. 2G, 1002': "My Dear Sir I am in receipt ot your letter of Nov. 10, and of one from Mr. . under date of Nov. 11, in reference to the appointment of Dr. Crum as collector of . the port of Charleston. In your letter you make specific charges against Dr. Crum, tending to show his unfitness in' several respects for the office sought. These charges are entitled to the utmost consideration from me, and I shall go over them carefully before taking any action. Then lie Draws the Color Line. "After making these charges you add, as a further reason for opposition to him. that he is a colored man, and after reciting the misdeeds that followed carpet-bag rule and negro domination in South Carolina you say that "we have sworn never again to submit to the rule of the African, and such an appointment as that of Dr. Crum to any such office forces us to protest unanimously against this insult to the white Mood;" and you add that you understood me to say that I would never force a negro on such a community as yours. Dluk Puts the Color Line. "Mr. puts the objection of color first, saying that 'first, he is a colored man, and that of itself ought to bar him from the office.' In view of these last statements I think I ought to make clear to you why I am concerned and pained by your making them, and what my attitude is as regards all such appointments. How any one could have gained the idea that I had said I would not appoint reputable and upright colored men to office when objection was made to them solely on account of their color I confess I am wholly unable to understand. At the time of my visit, to Charleston last spring I had made, and since that time I have made a number of such appointments from .several states in which is. a considerable colored population." MAKES HI POSITION PLAIN Declines to Proscribe m If an Officially Because lie Is Black. l'he president then cites several instances where he has appointed, colored men to omce; says he will strive in all cases to appoint only men of capacity and high character; says his policy is to recognize negroes of good repute wherever their numbers warrant the recognition, and that he cannot make an exception in South Carolina. He then continues: "I do not intend to appoint any unfit man to office. So far as I legitimately can I shall always endeavor to pay regard to the wishes and feelings of the people of each locality; but I cannot consent to take the position that the door of hope the door of opportunity is to be shut upon any man, no matter how worthy, purely upon the grounds of race or color. "Such an attitude would, according to my convictions, be fundamentally wrong. If, as you hold, the great bulk of the colored people are not yet fit in point of character and influence to hold such positions it seems to me that it is worth while putting a premium upon the effort among them to achieve the character and standing which will fit them. "The question of negro domination' does not enter into the matter at all. The question raised by you and Mr. in the state ments to which I refer is simply whether it is to be declared that under no circumstances shall any man of color, no matter how upright and honest, no matter how good a citizen, no matter how fair in his dealings with all his fellows, be permitted to hold any office under our government. "I certainly cannot assume such an attitude, and you must permit me to say that in my view it is an attitude no man should assume, whether he looks at it from the standpoint of the true interest of the white man of the south or of the colored man of the south not to speak of any other section of the Union. It seems to me that it Is a good thing from every standpoint to let the colored man know that if he shows in marked degree the qualities of good citizenship the qualities which in a white man we feel are entitled to reward then be will not be cut off from all hope of similar reward. - , Without my regard as to what my decision may be on tie merits of this particular applicant for this particular .place I -eei that I ought . to let you know clearly my attitude on the far broader question raised by you and Mr. j ; an attitude from which I have .not varied during my term of office."

WrerI:ing;Crew Is AUo Started Train feaid To lie a Total Ruin After a Pluny. Down & Hi;U Lnbaiiknient. Indianapolis, Nov. CS. The St. Louis flyer on the Dig Four left Indianapolis this morning and is said to ho a total wreck. The train struck a broken rail one-half mile west of Avon and five and one-half miles east of Dauville, in Hendricks county, thirty miles west of here. At this point the road runs along a high rill. The entire train, as reported, pluiiged down the fill, Aid brought up in a corn held, a pile of ruins. Pbytiriana Are Summoned in Haste. A message has been received here from Danville asking for all possible medical aid, and eight or ten physicians were summoned. They, with Superintendent Van Winkle, of the Big Four, left for the scene on a special train at once. Many Passengers Are 'Wounded. A telephone message from Danville states that all available physicians from there have been called to the wreck, but no word has been received further than that the entire train was In a corn field at the bottom of a steep embankment, and there was no doubt that a great many were injured. It was not known there whether there were any dead, or how many were in jured. TRAIN FULL, OF PASSENGER Stay Not Be So Bad as It Looks, According to a Telegram. The train was almost filled with passengers when it left here, the travel on the train from this city being unusually heavy. The first word of the wreck was received here from the train master at Mattoon, Ills. The Bright wood wrecking train was ordered out and two special cars were made up to follow. These specla cars contained Superintendent J. C. Van Winkle, of the i Ig Four, and eight or ten physicians. General Superintendent Van Winkle said as soon as he reached the Union station to leave for the scene of the wreck: "It looks pretty bad to me. There must be a good many hurt or they would not want so many physicians." As Superintendent Van Winkle was boarding the train to leave for Avon he received this message from Danville: "Four sleepers derailed. Send three sleei;ers to transfer passengers." Superintendent Van Winkle said he thought from this the wreck was not so bad as he feared at first. The wrecking train arrived from Brightwood and Immediately left for the scene of the wreck. General Surgeon Ford, of the Big Four, with a corps of physicians were on the train. Dedicated to Free America. Berlin, Nov. 28.

Consumption is a human weed nourishing best in weak lungs. Like other weeds it's easily destroyed while young ; when old, sometimes . impossible. Strengthen the lungs as you would weak land and the weeds will disappear. - The best lung fertilizer is Scott's Emulsion. Salt pork is good too, but it is very hard to digest The. time to treat consumption is when you begin trying; to hide it from yourself. Others see it, youwon't Don't wait untii you can't deceive yourself any longer. Begin with the first thought to take Scott's Emulsion. . If it isn't really consumption so much the better; you will soon forget it and be better for the treatment If it is consumption you can't expect to be cured at once, but if you will begin in itime and will be rigidly regular in your treatment you will win. Scott's Emulsion, fresh air, rest all you can, eat all you can, that's the treatment and that's the best treatment We will send you a little of the Emulsion free. Be sore that this picture in the farm of a Usl ts on tr wrapper of every bottle of Emulsion you buy. SCOTT & BOW NE, Chemists, 403 Pearl St, N. Y. 50c and ft; all druggists.
