The day was ideal in every respect. He must be a chronic pessimist who was not im tressed with the evidence that the rorld is growing better. The fifty-seventh congress will open next Monday. We print here. with a forecast of the probable action .that will be taken on various impor tant matters. The President's mes sage will be lengthy and will attract more than ordinary attention. Its reading and consideration will oc cupy the first day of the session. By an occasional accident, such as the terrible wreck on the Wabash road day before yesterday, public at tention is called to the awful responsibility that rests on the men at the throttle, the engineers on the big passenger trains. In this case the misreading of a little order as to the passing of trains resulted in the loss of about a hundred lives and im mense destruction of property. Of course the whole country is shocked .at such a terrible disaster, and yet when it is considered how many passenger trains are running on the same tracks every day it must seem marvelous that there are so few such disasters. Not many of the thousands who travel on these fast flyers ever think of the debt of gratitude they owe to the individual employes of the roads, who, though paid for their services, deserve credit for more than mere loyalty to their employers. Most of them are genuine heroes, men who. if the emergency requires, are ever ready to sacrifice their own lives to saye the lives of nhose temporarily entrusted to their .care. About Richmond People. (Richmond Letter to IoJianapolU N'ew ) A book that caused talk from one end of the country to the other a few years ago was written by a Rich 2iond man. Judge Henry C. Fox, "just to kill time and work in a few side remarks" about "Johnnv" Rob bing and other local lawyers, wrote and the Dun Mule." The book, intended only for local circulation, was taken up by the great news companies, and sold on railroad trains . and in faraway book stores, until Judge Fox found himself famous. The jude is about to issue another edifion, or rather he h; s rewritten the book and called it "Samuel Jones and His Friends." The same characters appear in this book as in the other, but it is twice the size and has a more general scope. It i not a snoney making venture with Judge Fox he just likes to write books. This i the home, also, cf William Dudley Foulke. the civil service reformer. Mr. Foulke has a beautiful home here, is the owner of a ma?aitieent librarr, and though he does ot cut much itrure in politics, ne is vroainent in he social, literary and j business life of Richmond. Recently he became a member of a company owning one of the local papers, and ihat is a reminder of the old times -when he was part owner of the Richmond Pat lapu'.m, one of the pioneer papers of Indiana. Isaac JeDkinson, once consul to Glasgow, later postmaster at Richmond, and now one of the trustees of the state university, was editor. Mr. .Foulke wrote an editorial, and "Editor Jenkioson ordered it taken out j of the forms. Foulke insisted on its j publication," and the ' result was aj squad of police standing guard over j the forms and a threatened applica-j tion for a receiver. Matters were j finally fixed up, and Mr Foulke quit j "editing.'. Henry U Juhnson, tfcej predecessor of James E. Watson ini congress from this district, is again j making Richmond his home, and U j getting back the law practice he lost j when he began to dabble in politics, j He is considered the leader of the j bar, and has figured in some of the I most famous legal contests in Indi-j ana. .

The attraction was Mistress Neil and gave food satisfaction, the house being filled at both the matinee and evenicg performances. The next attraction is the King Dramat'c company, who hold the boards all next week in repretoire, headed by Frank Armstrong. The engagement of this popular and talented young actor to head the King Dramatic company makes the appearance of the organization doubly attractive. Mr. Armstrong is more than favorably known throughout the middle states, and is considered the most talented leading man in the repretoire fields. The list of great scenic successes in which he appears give him many particularly strong roles, Lad if s admitted for 15 cents Monday night.

Dr. Edward Bedloe of Philadelphia, who has filled Important positions for the United States in Italy. Egypt and China, has Just returned to the United States after a visit to Europe. Dr. Bedloe has brought home an idea for the St. Louis exposition, says a New York dispatch to the St. Louis Repub lic. Dr. Bedloe's .conception Is that there be reproduced as the distinguish ing architectural, popular and perma nently useful feature of the world's fair In St. Louis a duplicate of the antique pyramid of Cheops in Egypt. In reply to a question whether it would be possible to erect such a structure at St. Louis Dr. Bedloe replied: "It is entirely possible. The Cheops' pyramid as It stands In the Nile valley covers with Its base forty acres and is 4S3 feet high. I maintain that sucb a structure can be duplicated with a ateel framework and a staff covering, exact In dimensions. The vast interior of such an edifice could be made to educate the masses in Eptology and familiarise the popular imagination with the spirit of the orient, where the United States seeks to increase Its export trade."

flaw-It Look a Wkti a Ueaaatlrc la Blows I. "I am one of the very few persons who ever saw a locomotive blow up, remarked an old railroad man to a reporter the other day. 'Hlenerally the men who witness the explosion of a steam engine are so dead when the smoke has cleared away that they are never able to give an account of the disaster. -Like many other accidents, the one I saw was the result of carelessness low water lu the boiler for the engine had just come from the shops and was In complete repair. It was on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad in West Virginia a number of years ago. " I was on a locomotive some distance behind the one which exploded and was looking ahead out of the cab window, so that the ill fated engine was immediately before my. eyes. Suddenly I saw the machine rise In the air. It seemed to me to be about as high as the telegraph poles beside the track, which, as you doubtless know, are not so high as telegraph poles in the city. Then came a cloud of dense black smoke, and dust, which hid the engine from View, and almost simultaneously I heard the roar of the explosion. "Both the engineer and the fireman were killed, and the locomotive was fit for nothing much but the scrap heap when It fell to the ground. The crown sheet over the firebox had blown out "The strange thing about the explo sion was that no wbtte steam was seen Ton know that perfectly dry steam Is Invisible, being like the air. and before it had time to condense It was prolm bly smothered by the cloud of smoke and dust raised by the bursting of the boiler." Baltimore Sun. PREPARED CHALK. How ta Prepare an Effective aad Economical Dentifrice. Practically all the tooth powders of commerce have the same base prepared chalk. This is mixed with some saponaceous compound, flavored a little, put up in an attractive bottle or Jar and, behold, a tooth powder cost nig rroin la to ou cents per vessel, according to the place you buy it and the celebrity of the name on the label. For 13 cents enough tooth powder to last a family a year can be put together. Buy the chalk in bulk and with it some ground castile soap, which all druggists sell. Put them together in the proportion of one-eighth soap to seven-eighths chalk, mix well and fill any and all the empty tooth powder Jars or bottles that you may have around. If flavoring is liked, it is easy to aau a little wmtergreen or pepper mint. So with the various antiseptic and disinfecting solutions that, attractively bottled and judiciously advertised, coax pennies unnecessarily out of our purses. There is no better cleanser and general sweetener than a saturated solution of biearlionate of soda. Fill a pint or a quart bottle, if you want to, with clear water and add bicarbonate of soda got from the druggist, not the grocer, until the liquid will take up no more Keep this on your toilet shelf and use It as a mouth wash. etc. When it comes to an antiseptic fluid, any surgeon will tell you that there Is practically nothing In materia medlca better than salt and water. ' It is always at hand and is safe and effectual. New York Post. Am Ample and Sweet Rmaft. A young Englishman who had been repeatedly and unnecessarily annoyed by the St. Malo custom house officials made up his mind to get even with them. The last time he had crossed he had brought a ferret over with him. and a minute or so before landing he transferred the creature to a black bag. which he carried with extreme care and an evident desire not to attract attention. This immediately fetched one of the dounniers. and he swoo;ed down on it with joyful alacrity. Our young Englishman pretended not to understand Use official until the Frenchman made his meaning clear by unmistakable signs. Then he slowly and reluctantly unlocked the hag. The douanier plunged in his hand, and but my pen (let me put it down to my pen! refuses to adequately describe the dramatic scene that ensued. Suffice it to say that the bare recital of it was balm to my wounded spirit. I only hope it was our friend at the custom house who made the ferret's acquaintance. Revenge is sweet.
