DENOUNCES FEDERAL OWNERSHIP. At a banquet given by the national democratic club, at New York, Satur day night, in celebration of the 104th ' birthday of Thomas Jefferson, "William i J. Bryan was conspicuous by his ab- ' hence, which was not explained. Senator I.sador Kaynor, of Maryland, came out flat footed against the government i ow nership of railroads, thus taking issue with Mr. Bryan. Senator Raynor gave it as his opinion that President jlioosevelt was not a democrat. lie i even went so far as to add that in his -i belief the republican and the democrati ic parties had not coalesced. After (that he went on to outline a platform Jfor the party in which he would guarantee there should be no splinters. Col. George Harvey, editor of the North American Review of Reviews, made a veritable onslaught on President Roosevelt. He wanted to know the Hills and the Morgans who had opened the west to civilization or the Roosevelts and Bryans who had divided their time between office holding and office seeking. Col. Harvey inquired if the American people stood ready to "welcome the destruction .f the very fabric of free institutions" after being "deluded by the spectacles of blatanthrobia yawping from the pinnacle of self appreciation."

x . I his liking, has come out for a third party and modestly names himself as its candidate for the presidency. ' Mr. Hearst's "declaration was made at the Independence League dinner in New York Saturday night. He calls for the organization of a third great national party, which shall go before the cointry as the advocate of "honest measures, honest methods and honest men." In Mr. 'Hearst's opinion the Independence league will fill the bill. His announcement of the broadening of the league from a state to a national organization amounted practically to the serving of notice by Mr: Hearst that he would be in the running for the presidential nomination in lfOS. "From Massachusetts to California, Independence league clubs are being formed and Independent League principles are being advocated." said he. Mr. Hearst said it seemed to him that neither of the old parties is true to the purposes for which it was founded. "Political battles today are not fought on the real issues of the day, and these issues will never be discussed until some party is formed that will stand boldly for definite principles, that will collect within its ranks all those committed to those principles, and that will rise or fall according to the verdict of the people on those principles." It seemed, to Mr. Hearst, therefore, that there is an opportunity for a new party, founded on the old, undying principles of equal rights for all and imperial privileges for none, "a new party that will adhere to thote principles, not only in alternate campaigns, but in every campaign and between campaigns; not only in public or parade, but in private in its inner counc'l chamber."

CHEAP SOAP IS A MENACE J PUBLIC State Food Commissioner Barnard' Finds Many Frauds Perpetrated.

A WARNING IS SOUNDED. STATUTES DO NOT COVER ALL CASES OF MISREPRESENTATION AND THE PUBLIC MUST BE CAREFUL. Indianapolis, April 15. Actuated bj his observances in tests made of samples of so-called toilet soap sent to the state laboratory of hygiene, II. li Barnard, state food commissioner, has sounded a warning that .will no doubt d tho puWIc to h(J moTQ careful hereafter of the preparations bought for toilet. ' f Some weeks ago citizens in the northern part of the state sent to Mr. Barnard a box of "medicated witchhazel toilet, soap" that had been sold by a peddler circulating in that part of the state. In some instances this soap, when applied to the face, blistered the skin and caused intense suffering. The box in which the soap sent to the laboratory was packed bore a label which guaranteed the soap to be "purely antiseptic," "good for chapped hands and pimples," and "guaranteed to cure dandruff and all diseases of the scalp and skin." According to the label the soap was manufactured by the "Medicated Soap Company of Chicago and New York" and sold at the rate of 40 cents per box. Each box contained four small dark green bars of the soap. Mr. Barnard made-a careful analysis of the samples. "It is the cheapest kind of laundry soap," said Mr. Barnard, after his examination. "It is no wonder it blistered the faces of the people who used it. It is made of greece and lye and colored ereen to give it the anpearanco of Medicated soap. It contains no witchhazel nor any other medicine, but contains considerable water, and shrank rapidly." Mr. Barnard immediately took Fteps to stop the sale of the soap in Indiana. The company has been notifjd and the commissioner is waiting ror resoap, but to no avail. "The soap fraud," said Mr. Barnard, "has become one of the most common frauds practiced on the unsuspecting public. Unfortunately it is not covered by the pure food laws, exceot in cases where the soap is recommended as a remedy for disease, as in this case." Cured of Rheumatism. Mr. Wm. Henry of Chattanooga, Tenn., had rheumatism in his left arm. "The strength seemed to have gone out of the muscles so that it was useless for work," he says. "I applied Chamberlain's Pain Balm and wrapped the arm in flannel at night, and to my relief I found that the pain gradually left me and the strength returned. In three weeks the rheumatism had disappeared and has not since returned." If troubled with rheumatism try a few applications of Pain Balm. You are certain to be pleased with the relief which it affords. For sale by A. G. Luken & Co.

WORK OF BALLASTING IS ON ONE HUNDRED CARS ARE LOADED DAILY AT THE PERRY PITS. Process by Which the Pennsylvania Road Carries on This Work of an Interesting Nature. One hundred ballast cars of gravel are being loaded daily by the steam shovel crew, at the Perry gravel pit north of town, and is being distributed along the road between Ft. Wayne, and Richmond, the work progressing from that city southward. The greater part of the road between ths two cities has not been graveled in three years and is badly in need of ballast. The working of the gravel train is along the lines of ballasting recently adopted by the Pennsylvania railroad, and is very interesting. The ballast cars hold thirteen and one half yards of gravel, and they belong to the botom dumping class. Tho small trap doors in the bottom of the cars evenly and equally distributes the gravel between the rails while the train is moving. At the rear of the train a scraper is attached which levels the gravel evenly with the top of the rails as the train is in motion. It also spreads the gravel uniformly to the ends of the ties. The method has been, found the most practical by the Pennsylvania officials, in that the gravel is more evenly distributed along the roadbeds and right of way. The gravel that is being used and taken from the local pit, is the kind which is most desired by railroad officials. There is scarcely a stone in It larger than a walnut and when it is. distributed along the roadbed it keeps its position. Some beds of gravel when subjected to the jar of the heavy trains, or of the weather, go into the side ditches and roll away from the ties. Mr. Wright of Ft. Wayne has charge of the steam shovel and the gravel train. ' EXTRA BRAKEMEN. Owing to the numerous wrecks which have occurred on the Pennsylvania jailroad in recent months, it is said that the officials will soon place ! extra brakemen on all the divisions in order to further protect trains. A HANDSOME ADVERTISEMENT. Probably the most handsome piece circular describing the fishing country of the north and which had been received at the local station. The book is issued by the general passenger department of the road and from the point of typographical excellence and interesting reading matter it is certainly a credit. All the popular tishing resorts and .their accomodations are given with a brief abstract of the Michigan laws covering fishing. DISTRIBUTE NEW TIES. The local Pennsylvania and G. R. & I. railroads are .busy distributing their spring allotment of crossties, and the section foremen are busy securing enough men to replace the old ties with the new. The pl-oblem of the Pennsylvania for the past several 5ears has been to secure the most servicable tie. White oak seems to be the best of any, yet in the ties that are being received and placed into position, there are white oak, turr ; oak. pin oak, bridge oak, jack oak. black walnut, red elm, grey ash and mulberry. Chestnut and white pine 'are found in the allotments of ties from ' mil line loose, ine wnue pine easily, absorbs ..the-moisture aud the

Thermometer.

spikes work loose. The life of both the last named ties is short. The oak ties generally last from seven to ten years. DIFFERENCE ON IN OHIO. Although the railroads have stated that they will strictly adhere to the two-cent laws in both Ohio and Indiana and have already done so, it is probable that they will strike a i-nag in the Buckeye state, as the state railroad commission and the state officials, insist that the railroads transport troops for emergency calls at a rate of one cent per mile. The railroads recently notified the state officials that hereafter the state troops would not be carried for less than two cents per mile. RULES ARE ISSUED. ' Dr. N. P. Howard of Greenfield, Ind., and surgeon for the Indianapolis and Eastern division of the Terre Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern traction line, has issued a set list of rules for the aid to those injured by coming in contact with electric currents along the line. These have been posted in several places in this city. - TRACKS TO BE RAISED. ! The C, C. & L. railroad wilL probably raise its tracks to the level of the street on the new concrete bridge east of Peru. The tracks at this point have been a source of much trouble. MAY RESTORE THE RATES. It Is reported locally that the Gand Rapids and Indiana, which refused excursion rates to Rome City during the ! coming summer, and which, resulted in the management of the Island Park Assembly abandoning at that point its plans for the present, will again grant the rates. It has been thought for some time the railroad could not afford to lose the great traffic which each year results from the Chautauqua, as it means much to the road, even at a'reduced rate. The outcome will be watched with interest in this city as there are numerous people who each year attend the Rome City gathering. Wheat Food Is Most Nourishing Has Been Recognized as Man's Natural Food Since Prehistoric Times. The failure of people - to properly chew their food is recognized by doctors as one of the most prolific causes of ill health. Food not properly masticated (chewed aud mixed with saliva in the mouth) not only- fails to sufficiently nourish the body but ferments in the stomach causes indigestion and fills the system with poison. Stomach juices can not convert starch into maltose as saliva does. Hence to develop from ordinary food the rich, j nourishing maltose (malt sugar) so abj solutely essential to the good health of everyone the food should be (but generally is not thoroughly chewed. The ideal food which gives greatest strength to body, brain and nerves is Malta-Vita, in which the starch of the wheat is changed to maltose when the food is made. - Malta-Vita is ready for assimilation by the blood as soon as eaten. Malta-Vita is all of the wheat. Xot a single nourishing part is wasted, destroyed or thrown away. Every element required for perfect nutrition ."s therefore represented in each rich, nut-brown flake of this delicious, invigorating food, which perfectly supports all the energies of the brain and body. Malta-Vita does not tax the weakest stomach in the slightest, whether it is chewed while being eati en or not, because- Malta-Vita is prac tically pre digested. Nothing builds up a weak system quicker or sustains a healthy one better. It pleases the tastes of all and completely satisfies the needs of old or young. Grocers sell it in large, sealed air-tight packages at 1 cent. Ready to eat when you open the box. , :!

57,000 TREES PLANTED AT ST ATERES ER V ATIQ N

They Were Set at the Rate of j 4,000 Daily. RABBITS DO MUCH DAMAGE. W. H. Freeman, secretary of the In diana state board of forestry, has re turned to Indianapolis, from a sojourn of several weeks on the stats forestry reservation near Htnry villi. The work of planting the C7.0tx young trees on the reservation has been conpleted. j Mr. Freeman was assisted in this work by a force of twelve men. The trees were planted at the rate cf -4,000 a day, the method employed being rather unique. With the aid of a team of mules and a plow, long furrows were made acroiss the fields. Following the plow a number of men came along with a wagon load of sprouts which were set upright in the furrows. Then the mules rt-turnod with the plow aud a furrow was ina.Io on each side of the one containing tho trees. These furrows threw the dirt around the trees aud '.eft them in aa upright position. ' "The rabbits have killed thousands of trees on the reservation," said Mr. Freeman. "Xext year we will allow all who please to come at any time they please and kill all the rabbits they please." Work on the administration build ing will be resumed May 1. Road making will also begin shortly. TRY THE INT ERURBANS G. A. R. Fails to Get Cheap Rates From Steam Roads. MAKING ARRANGEMENTS. The state department of the G. A. R. and the citizens of Ft. Wayne are making good progress with their arrangements for the annual encampment to be held in Ft. Wayne May 22, 2 and 24. The program for the encampment has been issued and shows that the veterans will not lack for entertainment. Negotiations with the interurban lines indicate good prospects for cheaper rates to and from the encampment. The steam roads, because of the 2-cent fare law, have refused to make a reduced rate. All of the arrangements for the encampment have not been completed. Some of the speakers are yet to be announced, but beyond this, practically all of the details have been arranged. Talk about your breakfast food3, A thousand you can see; I wouldn't have them as a gift; I'd have Rocky Mountain Tea.A. G. Luken & Co. IAN MACLAREN COMING Noted Author Will Be Heard at , The Coliseum. CLOSING LECTURE COURSE. The closing number of the popular lecture course, will be held in the Coliseum on Friday, April 20, and will be given by Ian Maclaren, author of "Beside the Bonnie Briar Bush" and other well known works. All who hold the regular lecture course tick ets can exchange them for coliseuji tickets free of charge all of this week. The plat is now open at the Ross drug store. All others who wish tickets can procure them, beginning Monday, the 22nd. The change to the coliseum was made necessary .in order to satisfy the demand to hear this great man. His lecture will be on "The Humor of the Scot." During the evening he will read some of his finesf Scotch stories. INTERPRETERSARE NEEDED Government Has a Pressing Demand for Such. The United States Immigration ser-j vice is in pressing need of interpreters who can speak any one of more than forty different languages. The salary is ? 1,200 per year at appointment and the examination by civil service is mild. There is no examination ii the language itself, the applicant being required merely to furnish th3 vouchers of three persons who are willing to take oath that he can speak and write the language which he would interpret. Applicants are desired who speak more than one language, but applicants who can speak only one Ianguage will be considered. Each applicant must pass a mild examination in English. The examination will be held in In dianapolis May 15. SEVERAL SMALL STRIKES ' ARE ON IN INDIANA. The Indiana labor commissioners will attempt this week to settle sever al small strikes that are on in various' parts of the state. Our word "school" Is derived from a Greek word meaning "leisure."

Marks of Distinction m What the Victoria Cross is to the British soldiers, the "Triangle A" is to cigars the mark of highest merit. Only soldiers of proven merit wear the cross. Only the best cigars on earth bear the "A" (Triangle A). - You record an emphatic protest against low-quality high-profit cigars every time you demand the "Triangle A" brands. When you buy cigars get your money's worth and be sure of it ! Choose your cigars from boxes bearing: the "Triangle A" mark of merit then you know you're getting greater value than your money can buy any other way. The "Triangle A" identifies the product of the American Cigar Company the only complete organization with the only "stemmeries" equipment for scientifically developing the ripest fragrance of the best tobacco, for making a smooth, uniform blend, and for delivering the cigars to you in their best smoking condition. The "Triangle A" on a cigar box guarantees full value, cleanliness, and unvarying quality. The New CREMO represents the best quality that can be produced and sold for five cents it proves every claim we make for cigars sold under the "Triangle A." Every box is extra-wrapped in glassine paper, sealed at each end with the "Triangle A" in red, to maintain

perfecc smoking condition ana cleanliness until the box is opened. AMERICAN CIGAR COMPANY Manufacturer

A LAZY LIVER ' May be only a tired liver, or a starved liver. It would be a stupid a well as savage thing Jo beat a weary or starved man because he lagged in his work. So in treating the lagging, torpid liver it is a great mistake to lash it with strong drastic drugs. A torpid liver is but an indication of an ill-nourished, enfeebled body whose organs are weary with over-work. Start with the stomach and allied organs of digestion and -nutrition. Tut them in working order and see how quickly your liver will become active. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has made many marvelous cures of "liver complaint," or torpid liver, by its wonderful control over the organs of digestion aud nutrition. It restores the normal activity of the stomach, increase the secretions of the blood-makipg glands, cleanses the system of poisonous accumulations, and so relieves the liver of the burdens imposed upon it by the

defection of other organs. Symptoms. If you have bitter or bad taate in the morning, poor or variable appetite .coated tongue, foul breath, constipated or irregular bowels, feel weak, easily tired, despondent, frequent headaches, pain or distress in "small of back," gnawing or distressed feeling in stomach, perhaps nausea, bitter or sour "risings" in throat after eating, and kindred symptoms of weak stomach and torpid liver, or biliousness, no medicine will relieve you raorw promptly or cure you more permanently than Dr. Pierce's Golden Jledical Discovery. Perhaps only a part of the above symptoms will be present at one time and yet point to torpid liver, or biliousness and weak stomach. Avoid all hot bread and biscuit, griddle cakes and other indigestible food and take the "Golden Medical Discovery" regular!' and stick to its use until ybu are vigorous and strong. Of Golden Sral root, which is one of he prominent ingredients of "Golden Jedical Discovery Dr. Roberts Earthlow, of Jef'erf on Medical College, says: 'Very useful as a stomachic (Etomach) onic and in atonic dyspepsia. Cures 'astric (stomach) catarrh and headchea accompanying same." Dr. Grover Coe, of 5ew York, says: Hydrastis (Golden Seal root) exercises in especial influence over mucous scrace.
