The hardest blows against Vice President Fairbank's candidacy for president are being delivered by his friends. Only recently, for example, the Indianapolis newspapers, which profess to look favorably upon the vice-president's ambition to become president, were filled with stories of strife and dissention over the unveiling of the Lawton monument at Indianapolis. As the president is to speak at the unveiling of the monument the In dianapolis papers originated stories to I the effect that he was to be asked by G. A. It. men not to appear. The whole affair, however, proved to be a "tempest in a teapot" -and blew over without any such desire of the G. A. K. being expressed to President Roosevelt. Since then, though carefully iruarded. the secret back of the Indianapolis newspapers attempt to keep the president from speaking at Indianapolis has. leaked out. It appears that these-papers "feared" that as a result of the speech the president will deliver Thursday, he will gain a still stronger hold on the people of Indiana, to the detriment of the vice-president's political chances. It is rather hard to understand why the Indianapolis papers should take this line- of reasoning, in view" of their repeated declarations that the president is in no way against Mr. Fairbanks' candidacy. Only a week or so ago these Indianapolis papers were printing long articles setting forth what great regard President Roosevelt had for Vice-President Fairbanks and that he would by no means dislike to see him succeed to the presidency. Pray, if all this be true, then why should the Indianapolis papers try to concoct a scheme to keep the president from speaking in Indianapolis? Rather they should be glad of the visit! of President Roosevelt, the man who t has done so much to curb our over-indulgent, chorus-girl-inanaged corporations. By their persistent efforts to keep President Roosevelt out of Indianapolis the Indianapolis newspapers have done Vice-President Fairbanks' cause immeasureable harm, and lead one to believe that he is unfortunate in his choice of friends. Wayside Tales The nerviest woman in Richmond las" been found. Many have long been suspected by merchants and public service people as being "the most gaily" in this city but now the distinction has been placed and for som time to come our heroine will hold the medal. What she did follows: A street car in charge of Motorman Rruce was coming down Main street. It was coming at a pretty good speed in order to keep to schedule time. At Ninth and Main streets a woman rushed out. She hailed the car and it stopped. "I beg your pardon sir, for troubling you," said the woman, "but can you tell me the time of day." Motorman Bruce looked at the woman to see if she were a patient of Dr. Smith's, and then perceiving that she had every outward sign of a good mentality, pulled out his watch, gave her the hour and almost stupefied, hurried on. The woman on learning the time left tho street so quickly that she even forgot to thank the obliging motorman. The Magazines. THE HARDY CAYUSE. Professor Parker probably had the narrowest escape. He w-as crossing a swift chnte of water above a canon. Tho Doctor, "Prints and I had crossed s.tfely, and the Professor was half-way across when his horse lost his footing and coukl not regain it. He luckily ? drifted close to the bank and was helped ashore by Pairi!!. but the horse disappeared from view in the canon. Three of us went around the jzorge to recover the pack if possible. To our surprise we found the cayuse a.ive and not much the worse for his swim. The pack was intact and a 30. iO that I hsd pushed under the rcpes was in working order.

News of th Lrocal and CHANGES IN SCHEDULE. PROOF SHEET RECEIVED BY LOCAL PENNSYLVANIA OFFICES. A Number of Shifts Are Made in Time and a New Train Is Added. The proof sheet of the new schedule of trains on the Richmond division was received at the local ticket offices Tuesday and the sheets show a number of changes in the time of the arrival and departure of trains in this city. No. 30, the Logansport and Cincinnati accommodation, which formerly left Richmond for the south at 10:10 will leave hereafter at ten o'clock. No. 19, the "Chicago Daylight Special,", which arrived here at 11:10 will after June 1 arrive five minutes later. No. 31, the Cincinnati and - Logansport accommodation, w ill arrive in Richmond at 2:40 p. m., instead of 4:35 p. m. as is the custom now. No. 47, tho Cincinnati and Richmond eccoromodation express, will arrive in Richmond at 7:20 p. m. instead of 7:25. No. 43, the Michigan express, which gets here at 12:30 o'clock will be taken from the service and the Northland Limited, the Grand Rapids and Indiana summer train, will take the place of the other train. The Northland limited will arrive in Richmond semiweekly till July 1 at 9:05 o'clock at night and then daily. It was thought for some time that there would be more changes in the schedules and that some trains would be taken off on account of the adverse two-cent passenger law. HAYES .IS IMPROVED. J. J. Hayes, the Grand Rapids and Indiana conductor, who was injured in the wreck on that road several Sundays ago, is now able to be up and walking around. Conductor Pat McGee states that it will be several weeks before ho will be able to resume his run. SPECIAL SERVICE JUNE 16. June 16 has been fixed upon as the date when all the lines which run excursions to the Jamestown Exposition will put on special service. INSPECT THE STATION. President McCrea, Vice Presidents Pugh and Rea and General Manager Atterbury of the Pennsylvania Railroad were in "Washington last week inspecting the railroad terminal at that point. The company proposes to push the improvements to completion as early as practicable and this visit was made to consider the matter. "When done it will without question be the finest railroad building in the United States. EFFECTIVE ON JUNE 1. The new Indiana state law taking effect June 1, 1907, applying to the ordering of empty cars, requires that all shippers must make such orders in writing to the railroad companies on all cars to be loaded within the State. Orders can no longer be taken over the telephone or verbally, as heretofore. Written orders should be filed with the local agents in order that a complete record may be kept of such orders as well as a record of the time such cars are furnished by the railroad company. BIG INTEREST PAYMENT. The largest payment of interest on the first of June by any railroad company will be that of the Pennsylvania. 12,215,207 for the lines East and other payments of $1,165,000 for the Pennsylvania company. RESIST THE ENFORCEMENT. j Aggressive steps have been taken by the Pennsylvania road to resist the enforcement of the 2-cent passenger rate law passed by the Pennsylvania legislature. It has filed a bill In equity against the county of Philadelphia to enjoin it 'from . attempting to enforce the law or the penalties prescribe! .for violation of th art. Th constitutionality of the act is culled ini

IN DIVORCE CASE.

Railroads General question. The law, it is alleged, seeks to abrogate the charter rights of the railroad company. This would be the result of its enforcement. It is claimed that the law and its-provisions are in conflict with the interstate commerce act, and that its enforcement would cost the Pennsylvania road moro than '$1,000,000 a year, through the reduction of fares. It also is claimed that tho penalty fixed is excessive, and would lead to a multiplicity of suits not contemplated by the law. NO ACTION MEN FOR WARD DIVISION Committee on Ordinance and Franchises Has Not Met. STUDY SAYS UNLAWFUL. The council committee on franchises and ordinances has held no meeting up to the present time to prepare an ordinance for the division of the Seventh ward, consequently at council meeting next Monday night there will be no ordinance ready to submit to council. City Attorney Study is still of the opinion that the additional ward to the city cannot be added legally until 190S), when the next city election is held. He has fully examined the law in this respect and cannot find a loophole whereby the Seventh ward can be divided. This being the case, it is not generally understood why council has decided to act on an ordinance providing for an additional ward at the present time. ROSY TEACHERS i Look Better in the School-Room than The Sallow Sort. Young folks naturally like comely objects, and a good looking, healthy teacher can do vastly more with the pupils, everything else considered, than the skinny, dyspeptic teacher can. The instructor in Latin and mathematics in a young ladies seminary, had an experience worthy the attention of any teacher. She kept running down a little ,taore each year until finally a genuine case of nervous prostration set in arid she was confined to her bed for eight months, a perfect wreck, physically and mentally. She and her j friends thought it was due to overwork, but she now knows it w as due to improper food. ? Of course the physicians were called in, but there is almost nothing that can be done in .such cases, pxcept to rely on well selected food and proper care. She was put upon Gape-Nuts, all medicines, also tea, coffees', and iced drinks were taken away. She had Postum Food Coffee once a. day. The larger part of her food was GrapeNuts, for this food is made "with special reference to rebuilding;' the gray matter in the brain and nerve centers. The lady says: T had befrn reduced to 95pounds in weight whpn 1 began using Grape-Xuts. The new food was so delicious and strengthening -that I felt new life at onceXJLJtave now developed into a perfectly healthy, happy, stout woman, weighing 1U5 pounds, the greatest weight I ever attained, and have a wonderfully clear, fresh, rosy complexion, instead of the sallow, bilious hue of the past. "Now I never have a symptom of dyspepsia nor any other ache or ail. Am strong physically and I particularly notice strength of mind. I never experience that tired, weary feeHng after a hard day's labor that used to appear. My brain seems as cleir and active at night as it was in the burning and I am doing twice the autount of work I ever did." "There's a j Reaport." Read "The Road to Wellu'icv" in pfcgs. I

PROSPECT OF WAGON FOB MAIL SERVICE

Effort on to Get the Govern ment to Supply a Screened Conveyance. WOULD DO COLLECTING. BY CARRYING A CLERK IN WAGON ON ITS ROUNDS, IT WOULD EE POSSIBLE TO GET MAIL OUT QUICKER. An earnest endeavor is now being made to secure a screened United States mail wagon for Richmond. The, old mail wagon, which has been doing duty for several years between the federal building and the railroad stations, has long been an eyesore to the postoffice attaches as well as the citizens generallj". In case the new wagon is secured it will collect all mail in the city from the seventy-two mail boxes. A clerk will be employed in the wagon at all times, to "throw" the mail, so that when it reaches the office no time will be lost in getting it out. By this mode of procedure, at least one new collection could be added to the present service. Postmaster Spekenhier "i3 in favor of a night collection between nine and ten o'clock and it may be at some future date that such a collection will be established. In case the new wagon is given Richmond, the present holder of the contract for hauling the mails would act as driver until his term expires and the contract for a driver would be let for a perior of four years. It is not known definitely as yet, whether the government will furnish this city with such a conveyance, but it is highly probable that such will be the case.

Saturday Loyal Chapter No. 49, O. E. S. Stated meeting and work in degrees. OBITUARY. Louis G. Decker, son of Henry and Henrietta Decker was born in Richmond, Ind., June 20, 1S63 and died at his home, 7 miles southeast of this city May 23, 1907, at the age of 41 years, 11 months and 5 days. When he was about 2 years old his parents moved with his family to a farm, 3 miles north of his present late home. Here Mr. Decker spent all the years of his childhood and his young manhood until he was 25 years old on this farm with his patents where he learned the art of farming, and from the evidence we see about his home we believe "he learned it well. .The straight flean fence rows, the productive fieble, the commodious baptfs and the thrity well kept stock, afl speak of indultry, labor and csye. They speak f an inteligence ifiat worked hand i hand with naUfre to make most f God given ojurtunities. and many ef us might pjmit from his exam pie J He was lyftriied October 25, 1S91 tl) Viola Mrcisch, daughter of Josepif and Lniflnda Fleisch and the 16 yes of j&ir married life has been aEl prosperous. Into their lives has come cares, vexation and disappointments, as well as success, as all human life is heir to. But they met them bravely and with a will to make the best of every situation. Mr. Decker had never united with any religious denomination but he was just in his dealings, an obliging neighbor, kind and generous to the poor, and he believed in a God that would reward the faithful. He expressed himself to his wife that he was not afraid to die, that all would be well. His health liad been failing for near 3 years, but In the past 3 or 4 months he has failed rapidly during which time he has been a great sufferer, and in spite of all the best physicians could do, he quietly and peacefully fell asleep to awake on earth no more, leaving a wife, three brothers tand four tistcrs to mourn his loss.

What You Want d What Yon Get Usually, -when a man pays out his money for anything, he gets what he wants, or there's a good, strong kick for the man who sold him a disappointment. "Why isn't this true of cigar purchases ? Why has the public been so long-suflering with cigar manufacturers ? Why will a man pay out his good money for poor cigars ? It's hard to say. But it's easy enough to see how a great many manufacturers take advantage of this careless buying, and unload inferior cigars on unsuspecting purchasers. This Aimflaming game can't last forever. Smokers every day are waking up more and more to the fact that Cigars are now made better than ever they were. Smokers can tell good cigars! when they smoke them and they are fast finding out that cigars in boxes stamped with the "Triangle A" are invariably of better quality than cigars which are not guaranteed in this way. The "Triangle A". on a cigar box Is a sign of honest cigar valuesand that's jusi exactly what the American smoking public has 7anted for many a day. I I The better value jwe are able to produce through our new. scientific manufacturing methods is particularly noticeable in The New CREM&

Every box is now extra-wrapped in glassine paper to keep the cigars fresh, clean and in good condition. AMERICAN CIGAR COMPANY, Manufacturer

t A . MOST ELOQUENT . PLEA FOUND FOR BETTER INSPECTION (Continued From Page One.) the people of Richmond. It is estimated that portions of this very same cow reached at least fifty different families and thereby exposed them to the dreaded onslaughts of tuberculosis. The conditions are such as to arouse the most conservative in Richmond and illustrates the fact that there is tuberculosis in Wayne county cattle and immediate steps sbou'.d be brought about to clinch government inspection now that it is almost within the grasp of the people and can be secured by simply acting quickly. Bullock Was Condemned. An eleven hundred pound bullock wasTuesday afternoon condemned by Dr. Waggoner, government inspector at the abattoir, because it was teeming with symptoms of tuberculosis. Neither the abattoir officials nor Mr. Waggoner would state that the animal was condemned but a Palladium representative made a trip to the steam vat where all condemned animals are destroyed and the tank was tightly sealed with a wire seal on which were the words: '"U. S. Condemned." Tho seal was firmly clamped so that in case of tampering it could be easily detected. When the Palladium representative next approached Dr. Waggoner and asked for a verificatioa of the condemnation of the bullock he simply smiled and winked. The abbuttoir company is very reticent about

giving" out Information In regard tl tbe condemnation of stock suffering from tuberculosis, as the butchers of the city arp blaming that company for the present agitation, thinking tho company is doing It to advertise Its business. Neither of tho abattoir officials would acknowledge tjiat another case had been found on their premises, simply stating they had nothing to say, but when the butchers of the place were approached, they acknowledged the fact after much questioning. Oscar Paddock stated that ho had been called in when the animal was found and it was Buffering from an attack of tuberculosis, and Dr. Waggoner had placed his condemned stamp all over the carcasti. The case which was found Tuesday only goes to further prove that thrc city is in imminent danger, and steps should be taken immediately to clinch the government Inspection before July "l. Butchers Lose Nothing. ' Butchers of the city will lose noth ing by government Inspection as they now think, and In fact will he protected in case of prosecution. If council enforces the ordinance recently passed, which it undoubtedly will, every butcher and groceryman in the city who handles meat can be held ilablo individually for not handling thor'oushlv inspected meats, while tho 1 state officials can fall back directly jon the butchers Individually if tonHaminated or diseased meat Is found 'on their premises. If they scura government inspection they win be protected. The butchers have no interest in the slaughtering houses proper other than butchering their meats there and are therefore making noth ing by their apparent fight against ' government inspection but are risking a great deal.
