BRISTOW 'S REPORT. The report of Fourth Assistant Postmaster General Bristow has stirred up a hornet's nest in the house. About one hundred and fifty congressmen are mentioned in the report, and not a single one of these gentlemen mav have done a thing that is morally .wrong. : Some of them recommended nostoffice sites and others recommendedan increase of salary for cross-roads postmasters whose income from the offices would not pay a janitor to sweep them once a week. U Congressmen do thousands of little things, while in "Washington, to accommodate their constituents. Some of these legislators are actually errand boys for people in their districts. Letters come from their districts and about' the most trivial subjects. These letters require a visit to some department and then a reply. A congressman cannot afford to neglect or refuse. It often happen, that he can entrust these matters to his secretary, but he must keep in touch with them himself, because, when he comes home and meets John Smith who wrote him a month ago about Widow Brown's pension, he must be familiar with the information received at the department and "also the nature of his own reply. It would be no more than justice to a congressman to relieve him of all these burdens. He has enough labor without them. He looks after all these little matters as a matter of courtesy and without the least intention of violating the law. -h 4 -.fc f,t; (ff Mr. Bristow may be all right to tabulate statistics, but he ought to draw a line between the letter and the spirit of the law. Mr. Bristow was looking for something detrimental to the official character of all who had anythiug to do with the postoffice department and he found some little technical irregularities which have been unduly magnified.

HIRED GIRL QUESTION SOLVED. .There are people in the world who profit by observation. Bureaus for the employment of teachers have been in vogue for many years. They are a success when properly managed. There are in. many large cities agencies for the employment of common laborers. These organizations have some features that are commendable, but the women of Philadelphia have met the servant girl situation with a practical new movement. According to the Terre Haute Tribune the plan is as follows: "They have formed a Housekeepers' Alliance which includes many of the prominent women of the city and also have opened a registry bureau on an extensive scale. Anyone desiring help pays 50 cents on registering. Those seeking positions pay 50 cents after securing a place, the money be ing deducted from the first week's wages, this being the whole expense. As there are thousands of women behind the bureau, co-operating with each other, it insures reliability of reference and character. Moreover, such a large body of employes working together can make plans for gathering help from home and abroad not possible to small agencies or individuals. The bureau will be a great clearing house to bring together the employers , and employes.'' . 'yr?) The Louisville Courier Journal is for any body the Democrats nominate for President. This means that it will support Hearst if he is nominated, but this paper says editorially that "Mr. Hearst has no more chance of a presidential nomination than he has of heavenly translation," and further "that this must be the opinion of sensible people possessing any knowledge of the actualities of the political situation. Mr. Waterson may be mistaken about the "political situation." One wing of his party does not want Bryan; another does not want Cleveland; the South does not want Gormon and Parker is unknown as a politician. Hearst may turn out to be the very man the Democrats are looking for.- He has the means to make an aggressive campaign and he is liberal with the "sinews of war" which the boys so much appreciate. Hearst has as good a show as any of the candidates, the Courier-Journal to the contrary notwithstanding.

Who leads the mobs, asks tin exchange? As a usual thing if is not the ministers or lawyers or doctors. It is not the progressive business men or the strangers who are tarrying within the unfortunate city. It is often men who are no better than the man they are trying to lynch.

likely will come to the convention with the twelfth district solidly for him, and Hanly will have similar support from the ninth. Sayre, it appears, having entered the contest late, cannot control the full delegation from the eleventh, and Taylor, while claiming all the delegates from the seventh, which is composed of one county Marion will have to fight to secure them, for all of the candidates are centering their efforts here on the theory that the capital district is common property, and that the interest of the party at large demands that its vote in the convention shall be divided. That was the theory of Governor Durbin when he was a candidate four years ago, and, though he got ony a small per cent of the vote, it showed a division against the home candidate and was fatal to his aspirations. S. C. Whitesell spent Sunday in TJagerstown. . .

SEN

BEVERIDGE

Officers Unable to Understand Why He Pledged Their Toasts Only in Water. . "-wV vr-1"-'--- ! ' -.".. - i Senator Albert J. Beveridge of Indiana governs his actions by. the selfmanufactured axiom that "undisciplined pleasure is no pleasure." He I therefore does not look upon the l wine when it is red. . When he imported this habit into the land of the vodka-loving Russ the following authentic incident took place: In company with a convivial group of Russian army officers Senator Beveridge Avas making a trip down the Amur river in a steamer. It was the dry season, and the channel was shallow. , The steamer at last thrust her nose into a sandbank with such misdirected energy that the captain decided to wait for a flood to bring her off. Thet Russians soothed the tedium of the delay with champagne. Senator Beveridge was invited to join them. A Muscovite drinking bout is attended with as much punctilio as a French duel, and the g uest was greeted with ceremony. The health of the Czar was . first proposed. Beveridge drank it in ice water, but the breach of etiquette passed unrebuked. , "To the health of the President of the United States," was the next "toast, out of courtesy to the representative of that country. "Ah, yes! To the President," said I'everidge, daintily tilting his goblet of aqua pura. A bearded old Russian general at his elbow stared at him in unconcealed disdain. "Did vou never drink anvthing but water, senator?" he asked. "Never," replied Beveridge. " Then it is a great pity that the water is so low," was the blunt retort. out Wwm Buys Powerful Car in France and Promises Surprises. Nice, March 13. Charles M. Schwab's new- ninety horse power motor car has arrived here in charge of a professional chauffeur, who was sent overland with the machine from Paris. The machine was turned over to the purchaser in first-class condition, and he has p romised his friends to make! some new reeords with it. The chauffeur made the trip at an average age speed of 43.5 miles an hour, including necessary stops for slight repairs and slow runs through numberless towns and villages on the route.' The makers have guaranteed a maximum speed of eighty miles an hour with three passengers and 300 pounds of baggage. Mr. Schwab intends to use the new car for long trips to points of interest on the continent. He is planning to leave with a party of friends in a few days for the initial run of several hundred miles. Incidentally he has promised to test the speed of the flyer to the limit. He is an experienced chauffeur, and only takes a professional along with him to make necessary repairs. New Spring

MARCH MEETING HOHTICULTDSAL

AT THE COURT HOUSE SATURDAY AFTERNOON LAST REPORTS ON CROPS AND FRUITS Gave Little Encouragement for Wheat or Early Fruits. (By Walter S. Ratliff.) Saturday the March meeting of the Wayne County Agricultural and Horticultural society was held at the omirt house. Oliver Bursress presid ed. : Reports on crops and fruits: Agriculture Isaac Dougan, C. W. J King and others did not give very ; encouraging reports on growing wheat, but hopeful for improvement. Clover fields, however, are in excellent condition. Fruits Nathan Garwood reported the condition of fruit trees to be good, and, aside from peaches and cherries, a good fruit crop is expected. Earlier sweet cherries have suffered most, and a half yield is not looked for. Fruit buds of the apple, pear and some others have shown but little evidence of development. Elim Osborn looks for no peaches, Kiefer fruit buds enlarging, indicating fruiting prospects. Believed a good apple crop is assured, as the trees did not bear heavily last year. ,He exhibited on the display table a j basket of fine apples, embracing twen ty' varieties, chiefly of winter sorts. They were in excellent condition, and indicated the success of his plan in keeping fruits in individual fruit cellars. The subject of the trimming of trees was touched upon by several and most members advocated the spring or summer as the time to remote unnecessary branches. Often the man with a pruning knife and saw does more injury than good to the, growing trees. r Dairy and Culinary Butter making is still followed by the farmers' wives, but much less quantities are made than formerly. The flow of milk has been fair, but the quantity supplied the city at present is below the average. Silos are becoming more popular and many farmers throughout the west are adding these to their stock barns. Ornithology Prof. Cyrus Hodgin, Flora Branson, the president, and Thomas Elleman made remarks regarding our native birds, their times of arrival, the variety of songs and apparent duty of placing boxes for them to nest in. But one was a friend to the English sparrow. John S. Fitzgibbons gave the address. His subject was "Comments on the Swiss and Other Republics." OP Dress Goods.

OPERATED ON. Mrs. Carrie Johnston "of this city

was operated on Saturday morning at ' the Deaconess hospital, ' Indianapolis. The operation was quite successful, and Mrs. Johnson's condition today is quite encouraging. Deafness Cannot be Cured Lv local amplication as thev cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. J There is only one way to cure deaf-' ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed J'ou have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous services. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, O.
