" V JOE KEALIIIG SLATED i MAY BE NAMED AS THE NEW FEDERAL JUDGE. Is Not an Applicant, But Men of Influence Are Urginsr His Selection Indianapolis, March 1G. (Special) A dispatch from Washington - to the Star, says, It is pretty .well settled that if there is any federal court legislation at this session it will contain a provison for the appointment of an additional judge for the district of Indiana. , - - Who will be appointed to the judgeship is a matter of much speculation. The one man now,, 'mentionedmore than all others,- is Joseph B. Kealing, the presents district attorney for the district of Indiana. Mr. Kealing is not an applicant, of course, but there are men of influence in public life who 'will propose his name in case the federal court bill passes with a provision for an extra judge. It is generally understood that the appointment would be pleasing to him. ARE NOT ENOUGH WAGONS Street Cleaning Department is Having Much Work in Removing Snow and Ashes. Owing to the large t amount of snow now on the ground the street commissioner's department is considerably embarrassed. There are not - enough wagons on hand to remove the snow and to carry away ashes, so - tne ashes are being neglected for the time being in an effort to cart away the snow from the streets.

MACHINES FOR NEW SYSTEM OF VOTING MAY 1 BE INTRODUCED AT..NOVEMBER ELECTION. A HEW PLAH IS PROPOSED Voting Machine Company that Will Take Pay from Actual Savings by the Change. The board of commissioners of Wayne County will likely receive a proposition from one of the establishments manufacturing voting machines at the beginning of its next term. .. -. . - . ' Harry B. Smith of Indianapolis, manager of the Columbia Voting Ma chine companyJ;, is making a strong effort to have, Indiana counties adopt the machine his 'company manufactures, and an . unique proposition, is. being proposed, . When the Wayne County Board considered the voting machine matter two years ago, it was conceded by everey member of the board and by every citizen who examined the machine system, that there were many advantages over the present system, but the initial : cost of the machine was looked upon' to be entirely too great to justify the change at that time. The proposition which Jikely will be submitted to the Wayne County board; is the same that was made yesterday at Lafayette to the Tippecanoe board and of this the Lafayette Courier says: "The company has made a proposition to the county commissioners to sell Tippecanoe county 26 machines for $600 apiece. Twenty-six machines will be enough for the county. The proposition? is , that the county pay for the machines with the money the machines save. That is each year an installment will be paid which will equal the difference between the cost of the veTection under th ; voting- machine system aheb the cost under the old blanket system. The one on exhibition is a 50-key mafiphine.' There are seven rows of keys, one row for each ticket. Eacb candidatev has a separate lever and no two. candidates for the , same -office can lie voted ' f or. ; There - is , no way whtever to- jfbeatVj the,machine) and the most ignorau't voter - can vote without trouble.1 vThe Votjhg;lis secret and no "TiiUtake can possibly be made. The 'company declares that Tippecanoe county can, get along with 26 precincts in place of 55 as at present and that the average saving per precinct ; by using the machines will be $30 a year.,,. . , AUTHORSHIP KNOWN WEST WROTE "EVERYBODY WORKS BUT FAIRBANKS." It Is Declared, However, That the v Vice-Preisdent Is Making a 1 . Record as a Worker. ! Indianapolis, March 16. (Special.) Louis Ludlow, writing to the Star from Washington, says : The secret as to the authorship of the song, "Everybody Works " But Fairbanks," is at last out. It was written by no less distinguished a person than 'Henry L. West, one of the commissioners of the District of Columbia! ' Mr. West acknowledges the soft impeachment, but claims exemption from prosecution on the ground that he is a member of the Gridiron club and therefore a privileged character. The song is almost as popular" -in Washington' as "Yankee Doodle" used to be all over the country. Even the page boys in the -senate. go round singing it under their breath. In a race for popularity it is running a close second to the national hymn, "America." As heretofore stated in these dispatches, it has no foundation when it comes down to ' cold, hard facts. Mr. Fairbanks is the only vice president, within the memory of the oldest attache of the capital, who has never loafed on his job.

' Charles Martin and George Ault, of New Castle, will be released from prison this week after serving two years and it is as coincidence that the man who ', was responsible -.for them being sent up is himself in jail charged with a serious crime and may be indicted for murder.

Thurman is now in jail under indictment for criminal assault-on Latitia Bailey, a wife's sister, ?and the authorities are collecting r evidence which it is believed willresult in the indictment forthe poisoning of Reuben Bailey, his father-in-law, by placing arsenic in the Coffee, y RAILROADS HAVE PROBLEM Are Trying to Keep Ohioans From Getting the Benefit of Cheap " .i rf ; , ;, . . i f Excursion Rates. V ; How to sell excursion ' tickets through adjoining State's at 3 cents a mile and info Ohio at 2jcents a mile with a return privilege so as to give the residents of the adjoining states the benefit of the usual one and onethird regular fare without giving Ohioans anything more than their new law requires, is the problem that is bothering the members of the Central Passenger Association. Since the enactment of the law the railroads have , determined to give just what the law requires,' and not one whit more. In doing this they have met with many ? difficult problems, the excursion ; being only ;ne of many. That theyJ will yet evolve the proper plan, the tailroad men; believe, .rf . ( i As one result of , the new law, Pittsburg clergymen, have been requested 'to surrender their ( half-fare permits. Whether this, was , donef to enable the roads to reissue , permits not good in Ohio, or to do away with the clergy rates entirely, has -not been explained. j ! : '- .; I NAME FIRST BOARD TRUSTEES OF EPILEPTIC VHrLAGE ARE SELECTED. : Turned Down the Offers of the Coma mision Who Wanted to Sit on the Board.
