NEW DISEASES IN INDIANA BOARD SURPRISED AT .SOME UNHEARD OF AFFLICTIONS. Some Doctors Can not Spell and Others Need a Course of Instruction. Some decidedly new and rather startling diseases have been reported to the State Board of Health by physicians in different parts of the state as being the cause of death. The physicians attending a case which results in the death of the patient are required to report the death to the board. Some of the physicians so reporting have shown an astounding knowledge of medical terms and spelling. For example one physician living in Starke County reported a death as being due to chronic liver and old age. A chronic liver is a new thing to th members of the State Board of Health. Another physician in. Noble County reported a death as being due to Paralsis. This is also an tmheaxd of disease. It is presumed that the doctor meant paralysis. A Shelby County physician reported as the cause of death in one instance Senility and over-exur-sion. A Lake County physician gave Glassitis as the cause of death. Polummary tuberlosis was credited with killing the patient of a Hancock County physician. Epsolepsia, caused a death according to the report of a Benton County physician. A physician living in Kosciusko County reported dearth as being caused by Cansor of the Prest and a Jackson County physician reported eppilepsey as having been the cause of the death of one of his patients Information of the lungs was reported by a Sullivan County physicion and thyphoid fever bailed the efforts of a. Delaware County physicion. A doctor in Tippecanc; County reported cebral heamorrhage as a cause of death and another doctor in the same county credited bronconewmonia as the cause of another death. Dies of Millinary Tuberulosis. Tphoid feever killed a patient in Vermillion County according to a physicion there, and millinary tuberulosis gained a victim in Marshall County. A Knox County physician reported that his patient die" of diptherit symptoms. A report from a Starke County physician announced the death of a patient who suffered from organic heart trouble with hurney. An Allen County physician swore that his patient died from exoustion. Canser of the stomac was reported as a cause of death by a Decatur County physician. A Newton County death was due to Serebro spinal ' mengitis according to the attending physician's report. Dr. Hurty, secretary of the State Board of Health, was as tounded when he learned from the report of a Madison County doctor that one of patients had died of two mutch drink causing delerimtremous. And then came a reoort siemed by a Rush County doctor attributing to paraloses of the hart. Hoping coug ana lung fevor caused the death ot a .Mi ami County person, according to one of the physicians there Apoley scored one in Ripley County; infantile contulstons was fatal in St. Joseph County and convulsions killed a patient in Crawford County. The records of the State Board of Health show that there are many physicians in Indiana who could stand anothc- course or two of instruction. Noted Ball Player Dead. Herman Long, one of the moj noted baseball players in the United States, died at Denver, Colo., Thursday at the Oakes home for consumptives. Long went to Denver about three months ago, suffering from the white plague. He was forty-two years old. He played shortstop with the Boston Nationals for 12 years and recently had been playing in the minor leagues. He played witfi Toledo and in the Chicago City League about five years ago.

BACK TO SCHOOL
OR TO WORK A PRACTICAL QUESTION FOR BOYS TO CONSIDER AND DETERMINE. Is This to Each and Every One Who Hopes to Make Something of Himself. At this time of vear some half million American bovs and their parents are debating the question as to whether to go back to school this fall or to cut loose rom boyhood and start out in he great world with a job. It is a big question for the boy. It is a big question for the par ents. The dav the bov goes to school the mother loses her baby. The day the bov leaves scnool and goes to work the mother oses her child. The dav the boy leaves school behind his whole relation to his amily and to the world changes. He begins a fisrht that he will have to wage all his life the fight for a job. There are certain tilings tnat school will do for a boy and there are other things that no school nor college can do. In the first place it isn t the arithmetic, nor the geography, nor the spelling, nor Latin, nor rrpnmptrv flint ih( 1)()V "lprims" in jV.UillVll v i . v - J school that does him the real good. The onlv thing that school can do for a Iboy is to teach him first he habit of discipline, and ot ap portioning his days and hours with intelligent relation to tue asks he must perform, and sec ond it will teach him to learn. flvat school discipline will teach liim how ) use that wonderful machine which is called the brain . All the definitions and dates ami conjugations that he mnv stuff into his skull will be useless unless he shall learn how o use his brain his mind as a killed workman uses his hands or his tools. If the boy wants to go back to school in order that he may wear . a peanut cap on the back ot Ins head and be free to hang around street corners after school then school won't help him much, but by the same token a job wouian t help him a -great deal either. If a boy -wants to quit school and get a job so that he can be 'independent of his parents, stay out nights and have money; for pool, beer ami theater, tuen the iob won't do him much good, and keeping him in schoo ' won't help him much either. It s up to the boy. If he .goes to school to dodge work then success will dodge him all the days of his life. If he goes to work to dodge study and discipline then he will probawly never be much more than a figure n census and police statistics tnd will end amounting to no more and probably less than he does now. But a boy can 'eave school and go to work and yet have all the benefits of schooling. He can tudy and teach his brain to think and to learn, and can grow, men tally ,as fast out of school as he can in if he -will. All things being equal a boy hould cro to school as long as his parents can afford to send him. This on the, theory that he can be taught by experts how to use his brain, 'better than he can teach himself. Also an education will probably permit him to start a little higher in the world ot work than he can without it. But schooling won't bf;st any boy to the top of the ladder, nor it won t keep him from slipping back. It won t furnish him eitner common sense or honest ambition. And lack of schooling won't keep any boy back if he has with; in him and keqs nourished the two elements of common sense and honest ambition. So the answer to the problem is this: It isn't up to .the school; It isn't up to the job; It's up to the 1kv whether he will be a success or a failure. South Bend Times. Taft's Big Stick. Des Moines, la., Sept. 21 In a itraight-from-the-shoulder 'speech from the step of the state capilol, yesterday, President Taft Look up the "big stick which was laid down by his predecessor ind brought it down on the shoulders of the railroaders. By this action, unless all signs fail, Mr. Taft has reopened the war between the transportation com panies and the administration at Washington. He demands more law from congress, demands more power for the interstate commerce commission, and in the satire breath accuses the railroads of the country with maintaining discriminatory rates, ovcrcapital izing their lines and dealing in the securities of their competitors with only one possible result the stifling of competition, the raising of rates and the oppres sion of the shipper. The president also declared tha while lie was opposed to except ing from the operation of the anti trust law any particular class of persons labor unions, for in stance he favored the insertion into that law of a clause which would make the law apply only to "conspiracies seeking to sup press competition or to monopol ize trade." In this way, he said he believed the labor union boy cott would be excluded from the operation of the law, and the re sult would be secured without class legislation.

It is likely that the next legis lature will be asked to pass a law that will make it impossible for any person to purchase such drugs as morphine, cocaine, ojum and the like at drug stores except on order of physician, sur geons or dentists recognized by law, and then only on presenta tion of a proper certificate, leav ing it to the state medical board and the state dental board to punish violators of the law. Dr. J. N. Hurty, secretary of the state board of health, declares that the sale of these drugs is increasing rapidly and that t'.'eir sale is spreading leaih and misery throughout the state. In I rcücnf.ng his case he will supi orth is claims with the rcsuiis of numerous analyses made in the state laboratory of drugs purchased in drug stores throughout the state. Hi will also cite a num ber of instances of his own per sonal experiences with users of the drugs. He declares that mis understandings on the part of legislators in the past concerning the dangers which accompany the sale of the dangerous drugs has operated to defeat the passage of the desired laws, but he believes that the general plan ot education of the people has serv ed to prepare them for the passage of some such law at an ear ly session. "Only a short time ago I ob served a case which would have convinced me fully, if I had not already been convinced before, of the need of a proper regulation of the sale of patent medicines containing the dangerous drugs," said Dr. Hurty. "A young man came to my office, carrying a small bottle of catarrh snuff, such as is for sale in a number of drug stores in this and other cities. He told me that his wife, a most excellent woman when he married her two years before, had become addicted to the use of the snuff and that in the preceding twelve months her nerves had become shattered from its use and she spent almost all her time sitting in the kitchen at home snuffing it. Vor some time, he said, he had furnished money with which to buy the snuff, but, observing its effects upon her, he had refused After that, he said, his wife would stop at nothing, even theft to obtain money to buy the snuff. "I recognized the snuff at once as a prqiaration containing a large percentage of cocaine, and told my caller that his wife had become a con finned cocaine fiend When he asked me what he could do to break her of the habit 1 told him there was nothing, that the self-murder must go on, and go on it did. The habit had be come fixed, and as long as the drug was procurable there was no possible means of saving the victim, except to make it abso lutely impossible for her to get the drug. "This is what we wish to do by law make it absolutely im-I-ossible for any one, except the most pressing need to obtain the drug, and tne need must be attested by a responsible physician Indiana's Medicinal Waters. Indiana now leads every stati in the union in the value of med icinal waters marketed. Accord ing to statistics compiled by the United States geological survey, 015,4'" gallons were sold last year at an average of 9G cents per gallon, the income from the business amounted to $57G,731. Card of Thanks. . I wish to extend my thanks to the kind neighbors and friends for the help and kindness during the illness and death of my loved husband and ailso for the beauti ful floral offering.

The greatest slaughter sale of high class seasonable merchandise ever known in northern Indiana will positively wind up in a short time. Since this bonafide closing out sale began a few days ago in the A lima n building Plymouth, thousands of people have surged through every section of this mammoth store supplying their wants at prices they never thought possible. Its an every hour occurrence to hear people exclaim: "Well it did pay us to come." There are bargains never before known in Plymouth or Marshall County. Every package which has left the store since this New York and Chicago Sal vage Company sale began is sufcient proof that this Big Con cern which has charge of the sale as the goods precisely as adver tised. Another cut has been made on' every article throughout the tore in order to dispose of ev erything in as short time as pos sible. Mr. Allman, who rs known in the community as one whose rep utation tor integnty and reliability cannot be questioned, in an interview tated that the volume of business already done was en ormous and far and awav above his most sanguine evnrrthttnnc proving the fact that the many patrons not only have faith in his word, but were more han satished with prices and the class of merchandise sold. Evidently every reader of this paper knows M. Allma, one of the leading dry goods merchants in Northern Indiana. Mr. Allman has for the past fortv-three years enjoyed the reputation of sehing only reliable and up-to-date clothing, shoes, furnishings, dry goods etc., and never misrepresenting anything.

Spangler deceased, wife of Peter Spangler, of Maxinkuckee, was probated Friday. Mrs. A. C. Capron of Ft. Wayne was witness.
MINISTERIAL OPPOSITION
Plymouth Clergyman Becomes Business Rival of Newspapers by Working Against Them. , It seems that a minister of a certain denomination in this city, is placing himself in the position of ibeing a business rival to this newspaper. Several subscribers of the Tribune, within the past few days have come to this office and reported thalt this minister las asked them to discontinue heir subscription to the Tribune, and in its place take a newspaper for which he is soliciting subscriptions, in order to obtain an mtomobile, or some other free gift. At best, it vseems very little usincss for a minister of the gos pel, a pastor of a very respectable congregation of this city, to stoop to enter a free gift enter prise, against shop girls. Surely this pastor is paid enough salary to make existence possible, anu if it were intimated that his salary was too low. his congregalon would be shocked and aggra vated. If this minister of the gospel continues his work of work ing against our business, even to such little tactics as attempting to persuade old subscribers to stop this paper, he surely is a business rival of the Tribune and must ibe treated as such. This paper cannot remember when it eyer encroached upon the field of any minister in this city. It is a certainty that -we never solicited contributions from these ministers to Ihelp us build a new newspaper office, and it 4s im probable that we ever Avill. Free Gift Enterprise. The Tribune has never insti tuted a free gift enterprise, nor any similar graft, in order to swell its coffers or boost its sub scription list. We have always published a paper on the theory that ment would win and we have not' been unsuccessful. When the list of subscribers to a paper runs so low thaj a voting ontvs't must be put on, there is something -wrong. In time, maybe a long tinre, the residents of this city will come to the conclusion that such voting contests are a gross imposition upon them, and the young ladies whose names reach the "contest list." Tjie last newspaper voting contest 111 this city, is a very beautiful example of this fact. For . instance sup pose one young lady has worked night and day on such a contest, with the hopes of winning first prize. At the last count before the close of the contest, she is in the lead. Then, what will prevent a lower one in the list if it is a man, from placing say, one or two hundred dollars down, for subscriptions? Would it not be getting a $400 automobile cheap ly at that? $200 for a $400 value. Of course and where would the young lady be, who had none of her own money to invest? In time these imposed upon young ladies will see that such grafts are conducted for what money can be squeezed out of them for the men who conduct them. The case of the young lady who won the recent piano contest will be remembered, how after she had worked hard enough to pay for the-piano, the man whoconducted it, approached her father, and told him, that if he would put down .$130 Ire would issure him that his daughter would receive the prize.
