In this summary no account is made of second choice strength. Home and Patriotism. Albert J. Beveridge. (From speech recently delivered at Wabash, Ind.) A home in Indiana! Before it runs the country road. Behind it lies the farm. About it are the sheltering trees. At its fireside children play. Beneath its humble roof there is the glory of a happy wife and mother's song. From the chimney curls the smoke that tells the toiler in the fields of the welcome awaiting hijn the rest after labor, the comforts of love and all those things that more than reward him for his work and make his life not oniy worth living, but a perpetual joy. To this home the man returns as evening falls. You hear the slow rattle of the wagon. lie draws thr water for the horses. The trace chains jingle as the harness is hung up. He is a young man. His cheek is bronzed and red by air and sunshine. His muscles are hard and firm; his step strong and springy ; his deep chest and broad back powerful; he has been made masterful by the useful exercise of daily labor. rjis life is all before him. The beginnings of wealth are all about him. Happiness is already with him. He would not change his place with a Sultan, a King or Czar fretting on their gilded thrones. He asks for nothing but health to continue and long life to enjoy the blessings that God has given him. And she whose love has crowned his life asks only that same boon. Their prayers at night are for this and nothing more. Yet, all is changed by a call that comes from the nation V capital. A single shot fired at the flag transforms the purposes of all these lives. Abraham Lincoln, the father of the nation, is asking in the nation s name the sacrifice of this home. The young man answers without a word. The young wife sends him forth with tears but she sends him forth. He takes the wondering children in his arms, then sets them down and they cling in a nameless terror to the mother's skirts. The good-by to her and he is gone. Perhaps he goes to an unknown grave. There is nothing material in that war for him. There is no money in it no comfort; only poverty and hardship. There is nothing material in that war for her no wealth, no happiness. Perhaps there will be pei.t.ry and want. Yet he goes and she bids him go. For what? For an id;al a thing that cannot be heard, or seen, or worn; and yet a thing more precious to these humble folk than bank account or rich food, or silks, or pictures, or works of art ; an ideal that soul of human life; that inspiration which makes us something more than animals and touches the lowliest man with the glory and beauty of the divine. That is the kind of man who saves his country, feeds the sacred flame of a holy cause, and finally gives it victory. Hospital Nurse Weds Negro. Miss Grace Green, daughter of a wealthy farmer of Kane county, 111., and a former nurse at the Chicago Hospital, was recently married to Ulysses Grant Chapman, a negrj elevator operator. The marriage has caused an estrangement between Mrs. Chapman and her parents, who declare she has disgraced the family. The father of Mrs. Chapman is C. S. Green, who, in addition to being the owner of a large farm is assessor of Blackber-y township in Kane county. Tie refused to discuss the marriage of his daughter, Wednesday night, declaring he wished to forget it. At the Chicago Hospital the head nurse promptly declared that neither Chapman nor his white wife had any connection with the institution now, although both formerly were employed there, the one as a nurse and the other as the elevator lxy. According to the . records the rn'i-riage ceremony was performed by Rev. Charles B. Sheen, whose name does not appear in the city directory as pastor of any church in Chicago or otherwise. Mrs. Chapman left her home two years ago to become a nurse, and graduated from the Chicago Hospital last fall. Marriage Licenses. Wiilard McGriff to Fern Stevenson. Joseph W.

BRYAN TO STEP ASIDE; JOHNSON FOR LEADER?

Revival of Campaign for Minnesotan Deemed of Utmost Importance. In a special to the Chicago Record Herald. Sumner, a correspondent at Washington, says. that for several reasons, Br van will step aside and allow John son to make the presidential race. According to the theorv presented, Bryan will not be the candidate and will voluntarily refuse the nomination for several reasons : 1. He cannot be. elected against either Taft or Roosevelt, and is convinced that one or the other of them will be the Republican nominee. 2. His ambition is to continue the biggest. Democrat on earth, and he realizes that another defeat at the polls will put him down and out. 3. If his party is successful under another leader he would be the power behind the throne and suffer no loss of prestige as the idol of those who worship at his feet. 1. If his partv be defeated, as he thinks probable with Taft or Roosevelt heading the other ticket, his act of nagnanunity in stepping aside because not the unanimous choice of the Democrats would boost his political fortunes, increase the power of his Commoner and continue him as the stellar attraction of the lecture platform. He would have the laugh on his enemies, who have figured on ''getting rid of Brvan" bv letting him hang him self. Winona Student is Hurled from Train to Shocking Death. After a few moments of con sciousness, Theodore Tangeman. fifteen years old, and a student at the Winona Academy, died at Winona Lake Tuesday evening as the result of a fall from a freisrht train in Warsaw about 4 :30 o'clock Tuesday afternoon Death was due to a fracture of the skull and perhaps internal in juries which rendered the boy un conscious from the time of the accident until only a few mo ments before his death. Young Tangeman, whose horn, is in Pojt, Iowa, was in his fresh man year and Tuesday secured permission from his teacher to visit Warsaw. Instead of using the electric cars, he evidently thought it would be a fine prank if he caught a freight train that had stopped at Winona. His idea was, no doubt, that the train would stop in Warsaw for water as many of the freight trains do, but he became alarmed when the Warsaw passenger station was reached and the train was constantly increasing its speed. Afraid of being carried far away from Warsaw, he made tlrj desperate resolve to jump off before it gained too much headway and, without looking ahead to see the obstructions on the right of way, hung from the side of the car as the train was going over the Columbia street bridge. The side girder struck him and knocked him ofT the car and he fell between the girders and the end of the ties to the street below, unconscious and apparently dead. He was taken in Dukes & Plummets ambulance to Winona Lak.where Dr. Xehrbas attended him until his death at 7 o'clock. It is thought that young Tangeman struck the side of the bridge and afterward fell through the ties to the street below. Warsaw Union. Gatling Gun at Warehouse to Repel Riders Attack. The American Tobacco company Monday placed a gatling gun on the roof of the warehouse at Maysville, Ky., to prevent night riders burning the building. Men will be constantly on guard and work the gun. At a massmeeting at Mayfield, Monday of .100 farmers belonging to the Graves Countv Dark Tobacco association all, with the exception of one grower, voted in favor of a public condemnation of night riding. The dissenting man rose at the next call and said that he was in favor of night riding under twisting conditions. Xight riders made an atlempt early Monday to burn the tobacco barn of Judge Lewis Apperson at Sideview, Montgomery county. A blaze was started in two places, but the fire was discovered and extinguished. Apperson is a member of the Law and Order League. He declares he will raise tobacco despite the attempt to burn him out. -He is not a member of the pool. Air Line Gets $1,500,000. Announcement was made Saturday at La Port r that the Guaranty Trust Co., of Chicago, has granted a loan of $1,. 100,000 taking over the stock and subscriptions as surety to the ChicagoXcw York Air Line Company. The loan is made as a result of a thorough investigation into the methods of the company and the money will be used in the road's construction. Sold His Beautiful Daughter. A gypsy father at Hammond, sold his daughter for 1,100 but after living with her purchaser for about six months, the daughter became tired of him, and returned to her father. The father demanded $000 additional from the husband, but is now being sued in the LaPorte courts for the original $1,100.

wwwwwwwvwwwws Death of P. S. Alleman. Philip Schuyler Alleman, one of the pioneer settlers of Ply mouth, died at Minneapolis. Minn., this .morning, March 12. aged H2 years. He was for almost half a century a prominent business man of Plymouth, and was for many years one of the owners of the mill at Tippecanoetown. He was the last survivor of five brothers who were prominent in this county, thirty years ago. They were X. B.. John, Xelson and "Mac." We believe one sister is still living at Wolcottsville. He is survived by his wife, two sons, Charles and Raymond, and one daughter, Mrs. Mabel Horner. Mr. and Mrs. Alleman, both being in failing health, went to Minnesota a few years ago where they could be with their children. Schuyler Alleman was a man of more than ordinary ability, wa- very quiet but had a keen sense of humor, and always had a r-.'ady answer for those who attacked his views, as every old citicn of Plymouth will willingly testify. His only near relatives in this vicinity is a niece. Mrs. Belle Sp tyde of Argos. His wife was a daughter of William Edwards and is a cousin of Mrs. Julia Work of Brierhtside. The remains were brought 'to this city and the funeral was held from St. Thom as' Episcopal church in this city. Saturdav afternoon at 2 o'clock Death of Robert Harris.

Luther Banks Found Dead. The community was shocked last Saturday morning to hear that Luther Banks, one of our old settlers, had died suddenly while looking after his sheep. He had risen from his bed earlier than usual on account ol wanting to look after some young lambs and had gone to the barn with his lantern. He had p" laced a ewe in a small pen the night before and that morning he had climbed into the pen to look after her. While in there he had taken a spell with heart trouble, sat down in the corner of the pen, leaned his head on his hand and passed away. The lantern had turned over and was still burning when Mrs. Hanks, who had prepared breakfast a little later and waited until she became alarmed at his not returning, had gone and found him. She spread the n:vs to the Omar Slough family and they in return told others. Tl c coroner was summoned and rendered a verdict jit,, accordance with the above. The funeral was held at the Bethel church last Tuesday morning and the services were in charge of Rev. N. II. Sheppard. formerly of the Christian church in Plymouth, but now of South I Und.

Efforts are being made to locate the bullet which she fired into her breast with her employer's revolver. According to the police the Noting girl had two admirers and she loved them both cquallv.

Murphy shot through a door panel with a shotgun.

CHARGED WITH

EMBEZZLEMENT HAS BEEN FILED AGAINST AN E X-T OWNSHIP TRUSTEE, GEO. S. COBB, OF ELKHART COUN- ' TY. Lloyd L. Burris, state's attor ney, has filed a complaint in the hlkhart circuit court against Geo S. Cobb, ex-trustee of Elkhart township. The cam plaint is in three paragraphs, each charging embezzlement. The complaint is signed by Gordon Latta, pres ident of the advisory board of Hlkhart township. Cold) was indicted by the grand jury 'and the case was venued to the Hlkhart superior court, to which court he is held under bonds. The prosecuting attorney sought a better case by filing the complaint. It is charged that when Cobb resigned . December 4, 11)07, he turned over $0i:.G, but afterwards on December 10, 11)07, he turned over 1,'.,.'5.7.", which he had withheld. Also that on January 2't, I'.MiS, his successor F. B. Learning, recovered by suit $1,1 .". which Cobb paid. It is furthermore alleged that Cobb made a false return to the county commissioners of the balance due the township when he presented his rcs:gnation. ( ). H. Sweitzer. Ferman B. Learning, Gordon Latta, Henry Ganger. Alonzo Yoeman and Mitchell Charnlev are named as state's witnesses. Bidwells Convicted of Fraud. Guilty of having feloniously conducted a confidence game." That was the verdict returned Saturday evening at Chicago against Benson and Charles F. 1 lid well because of their manipulation of the 'company controlling the "cold motor." of which Benson Bidwell, father of the other defendant was the inventor. The I Jil well trial began in Judge Chetlain's court Feb. 17, George M. Popham appearing for the people and James Brady and Norman A. P.eck for the defense. The prosecution was based on the contention that Benson mil Charles F. Bidwcll had swindled purchasers of stock in the -Bid well Hlectric Company by means of fraudulent advertisements. Oscar II. Hgers of Oshkosh. Wis., one of the stockholders, was the complaining witness before the grand jury, but there was never any concealment oi the fact that Miss Ida Palmer and the legal firm of Rose & Eldridge were the real forces behind the prosecution. Benson Bid well first embarked in electrical operations in Chicago in IDO'J, organizing the Climax Hlectric Company for the manufacture of a "cold motor," which he insisted would not burn out. In September of that vear his son, Charles F. Bid well, came to Chicago from Grand Rapids, Mich., bringing Ida Palmer with him. The Bidwcll Hlectric Company was then organized, taking over the old Climax company and increasing the capital stock to $?.."00,000. P.enson Bidwell was president and treasurer, Dr. Wilmer S. Snow vice president and Charles F. Bidwell secretary and general manager, while Ida Palmer went to work in the offices on Clinton street as a sort of confidential secretary. In the spring of 11)07 the factory was moved to Chicago Heights, where a $20,000 plant, was established, ostensibly for the manufacture of "cold motors." An expenditure of $S5,000 was made for advertisements, and in newspapers ami magazines all over the country this statement was blazoned: "The cold motor or generator is a device guaranteed not to burn out. and to produce electricity at from 2 to ."0 per cent less cost than by any other method now known." Much stock was sold and everything went well until Ida Palmer had a falling out with Charles Bidwell. the exact reason for which has never appeared, although it was insisted by the defense that "she was indignant because she was not given a block of stock." M;ss Palmer procured duplicate keys to the private drawers of Charles Bidwell. stoic, by hei own admission, the list of J,. "00 stockholders, and took it to the legal firm of Hldridge & Rose Included in this list was the name of Oscar IT. Hggers. who was selected as the most suitable stockholder upon whom "to rely to make a case. The Bidwells caused in the summer of 1 DOT the arrest of Ida Palmer and some of the objecting stockholders, charging conspiracy. The case was dismissed i i Judge Sadler's court. Miss Palmer then preferred a charge of Tsault against Charles Bidwell. This also was dismissed, but in the meantime application had been made for a receiver for the company, and in the fall of 11)07 Federal Indite Landis apnointed the American Trust ami Savings B.-'iik as receiver, which institution no wcontrols the physical properties of the Bidwell Hlectric Company. Indictments were found by the grand jury in December. Only a little more than a week pgo the Indwells were indictrd in the federal court on charges of using the United States mails for fraudulent purposes.

MRS. MAKY MEYER. K7rllS. MARY MEYER, Thomson tVl Avenue, near Shell Road, Wlnßeld, Ii. 1., N. Y., writes : 'I have been annoyed with a cough for years. Often it was so bad that I could not ßleep half the night. Many I peoule thought I a Consumption Was Feared. had consumption. 'A woman recommended Peruna to me two years ago. I began to take Peruna, and now I am perfectly free from a cough. I am glad to say that Peruna cured me entirely. I tak Peruna occasionally, when I do not feel well, and I also give it to my children. 4 Peruna is the best medicine for coughs and colds. I hare told many people how much Peruna has helped me." Mrs. Ilettie Green, R. R. No. 6, Iuka, 111., writes as follows of the efficacy of Peruna: 'Last November I had catarrh and felt so miserable I thought that I would go into consumption. "I tried so many doctors and medicinesf but nothing did me any good, only Peruna. "After I began the nse of Peruna I began to improve in every way. My head did not hurt so much, my stomach is all right, my bowels are regular, my appe tite good, my complexion clear, my eyes are bright and am gaining in flesh and strength. 'I think Peruna has no equal as a ca tarrh remedy." Peruna tends to lessen the cough, deceases the expectoration, strengthens the patient, increases the appetite and in many cases procures sound, refresh ing Bleep. LAYING IN COAL STOCK. Railroads Rushing Tons of Fuel Into Chicago. I.ecanse of the threatened strike of coal miners and tieing up of the mines, railroads entering Chicago and Chicago coal dealers are rushing thousands of tons of fuel into that city. Already "some of the roads have enough fuel to last them through three months should a famine occur. Dealers with large contracts for fuel with traction and manufacturing companies have also prepared for the possible tie-up of the mines' and have enough coal on' hand in many instances to fill their contracts for the next three months. Great quantities of. coal are being brought to the city every day. The Illinois Central railroad has brought in more than 4.000 tons and will have at least 10,000 tons stored by the end of the week. This is enough to provide for its yard and suburban service for some months. The Chicago, tturlington '& Quincy, the Chicago & Alton and other roads are equally energetic. The Chicago & Alton, as well as the other railroads, has been getting ready for some time in case a strike is called," said George C. Charlton, general passenger agent. "Most of the roads are practically ready for a strike any time, so much coal has been stored. The dealers, too, are in touch with the situation and are preparing to take care of their contracts."

MISS BEI'LAH B. BROOME. Miss Beulah B. Broome, 409 12th St., N. E., Washington, D. C, writes : "I have suffered from weak lungs and catarrhal troubles for four years, brought

on by many neglected colds, but on the recommendation of a friend I gave Peruna an honest Weak Lungs for Years. trial and I am pleased to state that it restored me to perfect health. There is not the slightest trace of catarrh in my system and my lungs are perfectly sound. "1 unhesitatingly give this testimo nial." Mrs. William Hohmann, 669 N. Pan! ina St., Chjcago, 111., writes: I suffered with catarrh of the bron chial tubes and had a terrible cough ever since a child. After a while it got so bad I had to cough both winter and summer. Finally, I burst a blood vessel in my throat from the strain of cough ing, next a blood vessel in my stomach, so I kept getting worse and doctoring, and even then could get no relief. thought, and everybody else, that I had consumption. "Reading the papers about Peruna 1 decided to try it, without the least bit of hope that it would do me any good. But after taking three bottles I noticed a change. My appetite got better, so I kept on, never got discouraged. "Finally I seemed not to cough so much, and the pains in my chest got better. I am well now. I cannot tell you how grateful I am, and I cannot thank Peruna enough. It has cured where doctors have failed. People who think they have consumption better givsita trial." WANT SAFETY OBSERVED In the Use of Motion Picture Machines. One of the measures that will most likely be pushed at the next legislature, according to V. E. lilakely, state factory inspector, will be a bill relating to the operation of moving picture machines and the protection from fire danger of those who attend moving pictures shows. Mr. Blakely has given this question some attention recently, and he finds that Indiana is far behind the other states. It is planned to license all operators. First Auto in Jerusalem.

MISS JOSIE SCHAETZEL. Miss Josie Schaetrel, General Deliv

ery, Appleton, Wiücontin, write: "I contracted a severe cold which eel tied on my lungs in very short order. and it was not long until it det v-.oped into a 6erioua case of catarrh. Every morning I would raise a lot of phlegm. which was very disagreeable. My di gestion was poor and my lungs sore. "After a few doses of Peruna I began to mend, and felt that if I kept on Consumption Prevented. taking it it would not be long until Ü would be well. I was right, for in four weeks I was well again. "I think Peruna is a grand medicine, and wish to add my testimony to the many others you have." The fight against consumption is be coming a national problem. Everywhere we bear of sanitariums established at the expense of the state for-the treatment of the vast army of consumptives. The open air treatment, fresh air and sunlight, are recognised by the medical profession generally as being the greatest necessities in the treatment of consumption in all its stages. Dr. Hartman has for many years advocated the fresh air treatment for consumption. At the same time he has recognized Peruna as a useful palliative for the many distressing symptoms which accompany the white plague. The promptness with which Peruna relieves a fresh cold, and even removes chronic colds, is well-known. This ranks Peruna as a reliable prophylactic against consumption. BIG HUNTING AREA. Indianapolis Club Leases 4,000 Acres of Kankakee Marsh Near Hebron.
