It is an unpleasant fact that Indiana can be depended on to furnish a continuous performance in the murder trial 'lne.

From Chicago comes the news of the

formation of a Married Men's Antieuchre and Home Preservation Soci ety. Let the good work go on-the worm has turned at last. Just because the factory where al talking machine recurds are made was burned, let none despair. A gentleman from Nebraska has still enough money litt to hire a hall. Mr. and Mrs. John W, Wiltfong, went to Chesterton Saturday evening to spend Sunday with Dr. C O-Wilt-fong. Their son Arthur of Chicago, also spent Sunday there. AU lDe bogs, sheep, mules, cows. steers and horses shipped abroad from this country amount to less than one quarter of the value of the eggs laid by the busy American hen. A bad accident to a world's fair train, on the opening day of the fair. is an unfortunate beginning. It is to DJ D0Ped tnat no more shadows of that kind may fal1 uPn tbe exposition. Some lazy man, who had nothing else to do, countad the grains in a bush el of wheat, and announced that they amount to 869,720. If you dont be lieve it, you may count them yourself. Let it not be forgotten that May day is Dewey day, and always will be until America ceases to hoW her he roes. History has been making rapid ly since six years ago Sunday morning. o sooner had Carrie Nation left Kansas than Marv Ellen Lmsa nn nounced her intention of going back there to live.

Brown has shown that he has running abilities second to no other man in town in a political race He should congratulate himself that he was beaten two votes for councilman. He would, have been out of place in that body for the next two years. The Independent says that Logan as city attorney has an abundance ef legal ability and has given great care and attention to city affairs, etc. If this is true why does he not collect the $3,000 due the city for water rents instead of borrowing money to pay the expense of running the city? J, W. Mai3y has been very sick this week. He was not able to be taken to the polls to vote Tuesday, and when Maxey does not vote he is seriously ill. We hope he may soon be well again. There are many worse democrats than Jim Maxey and some republicans that will not measure up to his standard. The postoffice and general store of August Grieger, at Hanna, was robbed Monday night.

Children especially are fond of dainties, and the housekeeper must look carefully to their food. As good cake can be made only with good eggs, so also a cake that is healthful as well as dainty must be raised with a pure and perfect baking powder. Royal Baking Powder is indispensable in the preparation of the highest quality of food. It imparts that peculiar lightness, sweetness and flavor noticed in the finest cake, biscuit, doughnuts, crusts, etc., and what is more important, renders the food wholesome and agreeable to young and old.

The great St. Louis show was for mally opened last Saturday. While It is not expected that everything will be in final shape much before tbe 1st of June, visitors even now are assured of their money's worth. The only trouble about this tremendous exposi tion is that there is so much of it that it will be hard to see it. The Independent gives Harley Lo gan credit for all tbe improvements that have been made in Plymouth during the past ten years. The fact s Logan had nothing whatever to do with them. W. B. Hess, Mayor Jones and members of the city council had something to do with making improve ments In Plymouth. But it will be news to most people that Logan was n it at that time. Republicans of the third ward did excellent work Tuesday. In spite of bribery and other disreputable means used by the opposition they reduced he democratic majority. Dr. Brown and F. W.

While the vote of the city gives no real index as to how the parties stand, it shows a substantial republican gain over the republican vote of two years ago. D. C. Cole, wno was conceded to be the best candidate for councilman on the democratic ticket, was elected by a narrow margin. It is reported that be did not have the enthusiastic support of John W. Wolford, the democratic boss, who dictated all tbe democratic nominations except those of Cole and Lacher. Mr. Lacher would have been defeated if he had not received several republican votes, n.s plurality was two votes. The Canadians have done a wonderful thing: Bored a tunnel through the rock under the Horseshoe Falls of Niagara, opening it at a point behind the falls where a great volume of water pours over. Other magnificent views have also been obtained by branch tunnels.
