TWO CENTS AT ALL PLACES OF 8ALE. MONDAY, JUNE 4, 1906. RICHMOND'S BIRTHDAY PARTY. The Richmond Centennial Association will send representatives to council this evening to formally mako tho reauest for a contribution of $5,000 with which to carry on the work for the observance of the one hundredth anniversary of Richmond's birth. Tho birthday "party" that the Centennial Association is planning is be made a memorable occasion and in more ways than one will bring fame to the city. The celebration, however, .cannot be carried on to success with enthusiasm alone. Money is Just as necessary. The one hundredth anniversary of Richmond Is an important matter to Richmond people. None of us will be here to take part in the second centennial celebration of the city, in 2006. and tho opportunity now presented, therefore, cannot be renewed if allowed to slip by unnoticed. The members of the city council are said to favor the contribution of $3,000 providing there is no legal technicality which will render such action questionable. Placed in the hands of the committee which the Centennial Association shall designate, the fund will be wisely expended and indirectly the returns from tho Investment, if such It may be called, will be profitable. The Centennial movement is at Its critical stage. With funds it can be carried through to great success; without money the project must be abandoned. Council is expected to meet the emergency. PURE FOOD JOSHING. The American people have been buncoed again. Several months ago when the Senate was forced to pass the pure food measure under pressure, we all thought It meant an end to 'tho carnival of adulteration which lias been reigning over us. Surely we thought, the ITouse filled as it is with the direct representatives of the people will never dare to smother a measure so popular with everyone, ex cept the manufacturers of adulterated foods. But we, you, everyone in fact, were fooled. The House, that proud defender of tho people's rights(?), has bowed to the rotten food manufacturer's whip, and laid away pure food legislation trusting that the citizens c? this country overjoyed at having been defeated again by the railroads on thd rate bill, would forget that they had decided not to permit their stomachs to bo poisoned any longer. Here's to the four hundred thousand babies slain annually by Impure and drugged milk. Here's to the chicory we get when we ask for coffee; tho dried grape leaves we get instead of tea; tho syrup made from old rags; candy made from clay; potted chicken made from the diseased carcass of a dead pig. It is a nice list of fraudulent foods! Men like Armour must be proud of their connection with such a trade! And what a patriotic gather ing we have representing us in the House! By refusing to vote on the pure food question they have decreed that we shall continue to be poisoned until another session of congress. Here's hoping tho press of the country will be able to persuade theso genial legislators that the people are really in earnest in their demand for pure food. Wm. Bartel, Sr., end wife left Sat urday afternoon for an extended trip to Nebraska, to visit relatives and friends.

KUHN IS BOOKED

FOR A SACRIFICE (Continued From Page One.) the people their constltutiona! rights and to secure laws which will conduce to the common welfare .without dis crimination or favoritism; that we point with pride to the fact, that an aroused public conscience awakened b ythe appeals of democracy during the last ten years,' has started the work 'of reformation and compelled public" officials to recognize the existance and baneful influence of certain laws, cliques and combines, which have been robbing the peo-Ve and corrupting public morals to the shame and disgrace of our nation. That in all this great and much needed work, that noble and wise statesman, the able champion of human rights and constitutional government has stood at all times as the leader of all leaders, who while holding no office, has by the wisdom and ogle of his appeal and the righteousness of his cause, compelled recognition and respect and pointed the way to needed reforms, and the restoration of the peo ples rights; that party success and the greatest good to the greatest number, alike point o him as the one person who should lead the democracy and all lovers of honest government to victory at the polls, and we therefore name as the Democracy's nominee for President in 1908, the one al ready named In the minds of millions of freemen, the Hon." William J. Bryan. Kuhn's Name Presented. Hancock county placed the name of the Rev. Kuhn In nomination and the other counties following seconded the nomination. There were no other names presented and the nomination was made unanimous. The speech of the Rev. Mr. Kuhn in accepting the place was a disappointment. He spoke In his usually good manner but what he said did not please the Democrats. He forgot to take issue on any live subject and that was what the Jeffersonites were wanting. After thanking the conven tion for the honor the Rev. Mr. Kuhn told his hearers of the great admira tion he had always had for the Demo crats. He said that their preserverance was n quality to be marvelled at. He said that It mattered not what they strove for, they kept fighting till they accomplished their end. The speaker said f.hat he had entered politics on account of his love of homo, country, truth, Justice and equality. He said that he had no apologies to make, that his religion and politics were one, and that when he had to divorce his politics from his religion or vice versa" that one or the other would have to be radically wrong. The Rev. Mr. Kuhn then pictured the evils re sulting from materialism, the great growth of wealth and the consequent suffering of a large class that came with this ammassing of huge fortunes In the hands of a few. He said that he stood as a fearless champion for the Interests of the people. In closing he pledged the Democrats on his word and honor that they would be proud of what they had done. Judge Moon, a candidate for Judge of the Supreme court on the Democrat ticket then spoke following which the convention adjourned, Eaving been in session just one hour. CONVENTION NOTES. The delegates to the convention from Wayne county were George Harris, Dr. R. S.'Schillinger, Ed and W. B.-Dye, Sam Clevenger, Harry Means and Alvln Threewits. In a talk with Mayor Gray of Connersville, Dr. Schlllinger said that the Democrats could not expect to get anything in this campaign. He said that it was a sacrifice on the part of Kuhn that might help them to beat James Watson two years hence.. He expects Kuhn to stir up the people and then with a candidate of their own fold defeat the present Republican member of the House. The Rev. Mr. Kuhn although claim ing to be an independent accepted the Democratic nomination, admits that he voted for Bryan in both his races, was reared a Democrat, though still claims to be an independent can didate. George Harris, county chairman In Wayne was keenly disappointed with the Rev. Mr. Kuhn's speech. He said that it was the first time that he had ever seen the man and from reports had expected him to make a good campaign speech. He said that he liked to hear a man express his views and this he declared Kuhn failed to do. Another disappointing feature of the affair was that Dr. Kuhn did not openly challenge Congressman Watson to a joint debate. It was said that he would do so, but he did not, at least not openly, a thing which the Demo crats wanted. CENTERVILLE. f Palladium Special. Centerville, 'June 3.

FESTIVAL IS SIGNIFICANT

THE VIEWS OF A CRITIC Horace Lancaster of Indianapolis News Says Richmond's Achievement Shows Signs of State Development Along Music Lines. Horace Lancaster, musical critic of the Indianapolis, News gives a review of Richmond's recent achievement in his paper of Saturday night and in part says: "The Richmond May Musical Fes tival, which was held the first of this week, was a distinguished sign of the development of public interest in good music In Indiana. "It is, of course, not possible for many of the smaller cities of the state to equal Richmond's festival of music. Several elements are concerned in such an occasion. Richmond Is fortunate in the porrcssion of an unusual proportion of art-lovers in its population. Its exhibits of paintings have attracted wide attention. The city also, is wealthy and its publicspirited citizens guaranteed the mu sic festival against a money deficit. The deficit, as was expected, appeared, but it had no depressing effect and the enthusiasm aroused bv the success of the festival may result in the third of the series being given next spring, instead of two years from now. "It is probable that the festival taught the men and women most devoted to the permanency of the Insti tution that it is not altogether wise to produce such works as Gade's ''The Crusaders," which was sung Monday evening, and Spohr's "Last Judgment," which was given Tuesday evening. It Is traditional that compositions of this nature should be performed on these occasions, ' because of their dignity and the broad sweep of the choral parts, but none the less they belong to a day long past." MILTON. Volney Thomas of Indianapolis visited Milton relatives Thursday. Miss Edna Wallace entertained a house party Thursday and Friday at her home south of town. The guests were Misses Ruby Moore, Edna Mann Rea Wagner, Ollle Castitter and Miriam Parkins. Mrs. Elwood Moore and daughter, Olive of New Castle are visiting relatives. Mrs. John Judklns entertained the members of the Cary Club to dinner Thursday at her home east of Milton. Miss Nellie Jones visited in Hagerstown Friday. Miss Glenna Moore of Brownsville is the guest of friends. Miss Ruby Reld of Richmond was a Milton visitor Thursday. Mrs. G. W. Callaway and Miss Marie Benner were In Connersville Friday. Rev. A. R. Jones will preach at the M. E. church Sunday. Miss Hester Burris of Jacksonburg Is visiting Hiram Crook and family. With Conde Company. Ed. C. Waters, formerly of Richmond, now of Indianapolis was here Sunday visiting relatives and friends. Ed. is now in charge of the repair shop of the Condo Implement Company and is nicely situated. Goes Back on Road. Frank Waters left yesterday for New York to join the company producing the farce, "Peck and his Mother-in-law" and will act as property man. Mr. Waters has special ability In a theatrical way and ha3 been on the road several years and finally decided to go back to the old business. New Gold Theory. Professor Frederick Soddy of Glas gow university holds the theory that gold is gradually disintegrating Into other materials. He has visited the gold deposits of Western Australia and New Zealand, and he expresses his conviction that in all probability gold, like radium, is at once the product of some other parent element and is itself changing to produce "offspring" elements. The professor laments the inadequacy of hU resources in the way of gold upon which to experiment and points to the tons of gold perhaps disintegrating in the vaults of the Bank of England. Cannibalism In New Guinea. Cannibalism has not yet been quite stamped out in British New Guinea. The natives have well cultivated gardens, they occupy long settled villages, and their relations with Europeans are geuerally harmonious. In each village one of the most Influential chiefs is selected as village constable, given a uniform, a pair of handcuffs, a .brass badge and $o a year and is kept under constant personal supervision by the six white magistrates. Crime Is comparatively rare owing apparently to the fact that the natives are not allowed to obtain any Intoxicating liquor. Klclc Agrninst Footba1. There is nothing new about the present outcry against football. The game was prohibited in Scotland by James IV., and in England Edward II. held out pains and penalties for "hustling over large balls." It was also declared Illegal In the time of Henry VIII., and strenuous efforts were made by Elizabethan statesmen to suppress the game, but without success. But where kings and queens failed the Puritans succeeded, as In o.ther phases of sport Limited Capital. - A yonng man entering business with little capital in these days of giant combinations, like a soldier in battle who Is reduced to his last few cartridges, must be doubly careful In his aim and doubly zealous in his endeav6r, for everything la at stake.

THE PASSING OF CHAS. SJ1BARD Was a Pioneer in Work of the Humane Society of America.

WAS NATIVE OF MILTON. HIS DEATH OCCURRED AT RAYSVILLE HENRY COUNTY ON SATURDAY WAS SEVENTY-SEVEN YEARS OF AGE. Richmond relatives received the announcement Saturday of the death at Raysville, Henry County of the venerable Charles S. Hubbard which occurred early Saturday after an illness of six months. Mr. Hubbard was 77 years old and was born in Milton. He was married fifty-six .years ago to Martha White, who survives him. They lived in the same house in Raysville for nearly fifty years. In 1867, when the State Legislature took over the Home for Disabled Soldiers, Mr. Hubbard was appointed one of the first trustees. This was the beginning of what is now the Indiana Soldiers' and Sailors' Orphans' Home here. He was elected a representative from Henry County in the State Legislature in 1S7 r.nd served two terms. Twenty years ago Mr. Hubbard became identified with the American Humane Society which had been organized shortly before that time in Boston. Five years later he tfs ciected vice president of that organiza tion. He continued in that position until his death. During the many years of his incumbency he traveled extensively throughout the country in the interest of the society, visiting nearly every state in the Union. He organized hundreds of Humane Societies in the larger cities and thousands of Bands of Mercy in the public schools. He was a birthright member of the Friends Church, and for several years was In the ministry. Shortly after the war he visited the Eastern States as an agent of the Freedman's Aid Society, and raised over $50,000 for colored schools of the South. In the seventies he raised an endowment of $5,000 for Earlham College. Besides a widow he leaves five children, Mrs. A. C. Wilkinson and Miss Elizabeth Hubbard of Knlghtstown, Mrs. Alice Lowder of Dakota City, la., Miss Ella Hubbard of Chicago and Frank T. Hubbard of Benton Harbor, Mich- The funeral will be held this afternoon. Ghost or Illusion V A minister of the gospel, according to this tale, was walking to and fro in a long passage that ran through the house and meditating upon his next sermon. There brushed by him a housemaid. He watched her pass and enter his study. Fearing that she would disarrange his papers, he hurried after her, went Into his study and no one was there. No means of egress was possible but by the one door through which he had seen the girl enter, lie rang the bell and the housemaid came down from the top of the house, where she had been performing her duties. And the unusual part of the story Is that nothing happened no one sickened and died. The young woman married happily. And yet that minister of the gospel is sure that he saw that housemaid pass him". Nor to thi3 day does his stout and happy matron know that she was ever In two places at once. Wealth In Old Roman Times. Our wealth, as much as we boast of It, is comparatively puny as compared with the wealth of men of old. There was Mark Antony's house that was sold to Meesala for over $500,000, and Scaurus' villa was burned at a loss of over $12,000,000. Otho spent over $14,000.000 in finishing one wing of a palace commenced by Nero. Nearly $30,000,000 was found in the coffers of Tiberius, and Caligula spent It all In less than a year. Taurus could make a trifling present to the mother of Brutus of a pearl worth over $30,000. So let us be modest. We are a cheap people, even the wealthiest of us. Smoking the TTarslle. A Greek thus tells how the nargile 13 smoked by his brethren: "Only pure tobacco Is used In the nargile. It Is grown expressly for the purpose in Fersia. The weed there is called tumbeky. This kind of tobacco is first washed two or three times by the man who keeps the restaurant. He puts It under a faucet and squeezes the juice out. Otherwise the tobacco would be too strong. Then, when the smoke of it is drawn through the water, the tobacco having, of course, been dried first, all the nicotine is deposited In the water, and a delightful and Innocuous smoke Is the result." The Tent. "now do you like your new music teacher?" "He's no good." "Why, what makes you think so? "Yesterday I played a common tune clear through, and he didn't say it would take a week's practice to offset the harm done." The East Side. , "A city's slums," said a globe trotter, "are always In its eastern quarter. I wonder why? Take New York. Its east side is its slum side. So it is with London. The east end is the slum end. Of Philadelphia, Chicago, Canton and Madrid the same thing holds good, as I know from personal experience. The only possible ground I can give for a city's slums being invariably in its eastern quarter is that this quarter is the one that is exposed to the harsh end unpleasant rigors of the east wLwV A -
