A St. Louis bride was recently blinded in one eye by rice thrown by a party of friends at the railway sta
tion. A few more accidents similar
to this and the thinking public will awake to a realization of the danger
ia a little grain of rice as used at wed
ding festivities. The throwing of rice
after a departing bride and groom is
a custom of long established usage. Our forefathers engaged in the prac
tice from time immemorial. But the
fact that rice throwing is a custom is no reason it should not be relegated as the true danger in it is recognized. This young bride at the threshold of a new life and one to which she had doubtlcKS looked forward as promising the rosiest happiness, has her joy turnei to pain and sorrow through the thoushllesH act of well meaning friends. She will bear with her to the grave the sad recollection of a marred wedding day. Duelling used to be a custom with our forefathers and no legal .action was taken if one of the principals of a duel had the misfortune to fall dead before the sword or pistol of his adversary. Today, however, if a duel is fought in this country and only one survives, that survivor is treated and tried as a murderer. The country outgrew the custom of deciding disputes
by duelling and stopped the practice by rigorous methods. In this time and age, however, our citizens whether young or old, should have enough common sense to put a stop to the custom of throwing rice at newly wed couples. The custom in its own way is just as dangerous and as useless as duelling. Therefore at the next wedding you attend have a little consideration and by your own example help to cast disapproval upon rice throwing.

A WORD FROM CARNEGIE. Mr. Andrew Carnegie has written to Mr. David Homer Bates, the author of "Lincoln in the Telegraph Office," now appearing in The Century Magazine, telling Mr. Bates of his appreciation. Mr. Carnegie says: "My experience with Mr. Lincoln, that great and good man, was similar to yours, as I had many opportunities of seeing him, my office at that time adjoining Colonel Scott's, and the telegraph office being next to mine. Mr. Lincoln came to the telegraph office as you record, and, so far as my memory serves me, your account is a faithful one of the stirring events of that his
toric period as related to the tele
graph."

u3r From Rags. A fhemist tossed a handful of rags Into a bowl. "Out of this ounce of rags," he ald, "I am going to make an ounce of sugar." lie shredded the rags with a sharp Fteel comb into a fluff. He added to them two ounces of concectratetl sulphuric acid. Then he began to pound the pale and hissing mixture with a mortar. "It must stand for two hours," he paid. "Thea it must be filtered, then It must be boiled a half day, the water as it evaporates being continually replaced. In the end you have an ounce of pure gTape sugar. Try this experiment. It never fails. Save all your rag3. and with the help of $2 worth of fuel, chemicals and labor you can change every pound of rags into a pound cf the finest sugar." Ex-change.

POSTAL CLERKS' SESSION.
IT IS NOW ON AT LOUISVILLE,
KENTUCKY.
Charles Mains Is Representing This
District Many Business Matters to Come Up. The railway postal clerks' convention is in session at Louisville, Ky., with a large attendance from the Ninth district. Charles Mains, a postal clerk running through Richmond on trains 18 and 19, between Cincinnati and Chicago, is in attendance. Frank Mitchell was first selected to represent Richmond at the meeting, but he found it impossible to do so and Mains was selected. All matters pertaining to the business of this division will be discussed while officers for the ensuing year will be elected. Two delegates to the National railway clerks convention, which will be held in Ft. Worth, Texas, in September, will be elected. It was first announced that the division convention
would take some action upon steel railway postal cars, sanctioning them, and would bring pressure to bear on the railroads of this division to install the steel cars instead of the old wooden death traps, but it is hardly probable that the division convention will do anything along this line, leaving this .action for the national body. HAS NOT RECOVERED. H. E. Musselwhite, who received a broken knee cap in the Grand Rapids wreck north of Lynn, several weeks
ao. is stni coniinea xo nis nuuie m Grand Rapids with his leg in a cast. The cast was taken off a week ago, but it was then found that his knee cap was broken In three places instead of two and the cast was replaced and he was sent back to bed. It will be several weeks before he will be able to return to work.
BACK ON DUTY. Frank Swaynie, a clerk in the local Richmond division freight office has returned to duty after a several days' vacation. OFF ON A VACATION. John Collins, assistant chief clerk to Guy S. McCabe, division freight agent, is off duty on a two weeks' vacation. ON HIS RUN AGAIN. C. E. Baker, passenger conductor on the Cincinnati division of the Pennsylvania, or what is more commonly known as the Little Miami, di-
nvision, has taken his run after a sev
eral days' illness. B. W. Carlos who has been serving in his position has reassumed his freight run.

EXTRA CAR ADDED. Owing to the exceptionally heavy
travel along the Richmond division
Monday, Chicagoward, an extra car had to be added to train No. 19, leav
ing Richmond at 11:20 a. m. Fifty Chicago passengers were picked up
at Anderson. Both local and through
traffic haa increased wonderfully In the past few weeks, and the summer travel this year promises to be1 unprecedented. Notwithstanding the more than doubled business done, since the effectiveness of the two-cent law. local men claim that the Pennsylvania is losing money. DEATHOF SISTER. Robert" Graham, night clerk in the Pennsylvania depot restaurant, is off duty at the present time on account of the death of his sister. BRINGS GOOD REPORT. Norman M. Breeze, general r.gent for the Chicago and Northwestern with .headquarters ia Cincinnati, was in Richmond Monday calling ou local passenger and freight officials. Mr. Breeze btated that notwithstanding the rumors that the northwestern crops would be and are injured, such is not the case and the northwest will turn out as golden a harvest as in past years. Some sections he said were damaged to a slight extent but this damag9 is not eriou- i
N HAYES IS IMPROVING. Word has been received in Richmond announcing the slow improvement of J. J. Hayes, who was injured in the G. R. & I. wreck several weeks ago near Lynn, when No. 7, the Richmond and Grand Rapids express
left the rails. Hayes was almost scalped. His slow improvement is a
source of much worry to, his friends
and relatives. His home is in Ft.
Wayne.
t m BIG EXCURSION BUSINESS. The Grand Rapids and Indiana Is
doing a great excursion business north of Ft. Wayne to Rome City. It
is not known locally when the road will give its patrons south of that city, Rome City excursion rates but it is expected that the popular trains to
that point will start sometime in July. From the number of inquiries made locally it seems that excursions from this city to Rome City would be a paying venture for the G. R. & I. ESTIMATE ON LOSS. Statisticians have been at work figuring up the loss of revenue that will be sustained by the railroads from the passage of the two-cent passenger fare laws. The result has been to show that the revenue derived from passenger traffic constitutes 27.5S per cent of the total income, and that losses through the enforced lowering of the rates will be 26 per cent on business ia states where these laws have been passed.
OFFICER IS ADDED.
At the meeting of the Central Freight association, held in Chicago last week, an important officer was added to its membership. The new member is U. G. Couffer, chief of the tariff bureau of the Pennsylvania lines west and one of the most thoroughly posted men on freight tariffs in the country. He has the advantage over such men appointed to such positions usually, since he is a lawyer of marked ability and is able to settle complicated problems at once, which often are puzzling to others. ADOPT NEW RULE. As a result of the stand taken by the Pennsylvania line in adopting the new car service rule promulgated by the Ohio State Railwav commis
sion practically all the local lines op
erating in that state have notified the
commission that they also will adopt
cue nev rule. i
MONEY WAS VOTED
ART ASSOCIATION
The City Council, as in Former
Years, Has Appropriated $100 for This.
NOT A DISSENTING VOTE.
LETTER FROM MRS. M. F. JOHN
STON, PRESIDENT OF ASSOCIA
TION, WAS READ, POINTING OUT
ADVANTAGE.
Councilman Henry W. Deuker at
council meeting Monday evenin
made a motion to have the city attorney prepare an ordinance appropriating $100 for the Art association of
Richmond. This motion was carried and about five minutes later Mr.
Study handed to Clerk Taggart the
ordinance which was read and then
passed under suspension of the rules
without a dissenting vote.
Richmond has a reputation all over the country because the municipal
government takes an interest in and
financially supports the art movement. The city fathers think this re
putation is a good one to have, so for
the fourth time $100 has been appro
priated out of the city strong box to
help defray the annual art exhibit's
expense.
Councilman Deuker's motion was made after the clerk had read a communication from Mrs. M. F. Johnston, president of the Art association,
which i3 as follows:
'On behalf of the Art association of Richmond, Indiana, I ask that you ap
propriate again this year as you have done for the past three years, the sum of $100 from the city treasury, for the
expense fund of our eleventh annual
exhibition. We have a membership
of about 600, paying fifty cents an
nual dues, but this does not bring in a fund quite sufficient for all expen
ses. "The large number of letters receiv
ed by the Art association from all parts of the country show how widely
Richmond is becoming known on ac
count of our annual art exhibits.
"An unusual feature, and one that attracts notice in other towns and
cities, is te fact that the city gov
ernment of Richmond helps to sup
port this public art movement. So we ask for this aid not only to add to
our expense fund but because we be
lieve your honorable body could not give this sum for any purpose where the returns would be greater for the reputation and distinction of our
city."
A man who is in perfect health, so
he can do an honest day's work when
necessary, has much for which he
should be thankful. Mr. L. C. Rodg-
ers, of Branchton, Pa., writes that he was not only unable to work, but he couldn't stoop over to tie his own shoes. Six bottles of Foley's Kidney
Cure made a new man of him. He says, "Success to Foley's Kidney Cure."

IMapoTeon's Haughty Horse. Napoleon when at St. Helena once said of his horse: "He has memory, knowledge and judgment. He distinguishes his master from his servants, although these are more constantly about him. I had a horse which distinguished, me from the rest of the world and which manifested by his bounding and haughty gait when I was upon his back that he carried, a man superior to those around him. He would not suffer any one to mount him
except myself and the groom that took
care of him. When I had lost my way, I threw the bridle upon his neck and let him pick his way, with the inevitable result of finding the right road."
Creative Interpretation. Interpretation is your construction put on Beethoven. It is Bach filtered through your temperament. It is Mozart plus our personal equation. It is Wagner not minus the impersonal cymbols, but plus vital pulsations of your heart and mind. Interpretation, declares the Etude, is as creative as composition. Your bricks are tones and rhythms. Being creative, it is not Impersonal. Being creative, it is also not of the feelings alone. The subjective Interpreter is a jellyfish: the ob
jective one a rock. Your creative gen--
ius is one whose subjective and ob
jective minds work synchronously.
SPLENDID LECTURE BT MISS SELLICK
She Spoke to the Members of The Keramic League and Others Monday,
PRIZES WERE AWARDED.
MISS MARY DICKINSON, MRS. CHARLES MORRIS AND MISS CONSTANCE BELL WERE THE FORTUNATE ONES. j
A large number of the china painters of the city and others Interested in art were present at the lecture which was given Monday before the members of the Keramic League, In the rooms of the Starr Piano company at Tenth and Main streets, by Miss Rhoda Sellick, of Indianapolis. The lecture was well prepared and is declared without a doubt the most interesting ever delivered in Richmond on that subject. Miss Sellick
began with the underlying principles
cf decorative art which is as old as
the world, and illustrated her talk. She spoke of the Japanese having mastered the principles early in the
centuries and of their use of the lines
The Japanese took their motifs from nature and studied nature to a great
extent. They expressed their impres
sions in lines at first and later in
colors. The Greeks took the human form for the design for their vases
and the Japanese adapted their designs to the Green form. An interest
ing feature of her talk were the charts illustrating the three forms of
lines, the straight; the horizontal and
the oblique and also the colors. Prizes are Awarded.
After the lecture Mrs. Orendorff, of
Indianapolis, who acted as judge of the best adaptation of Japanese art to porcelain, announced the prizes which

Endsley and Mrs. Belle Wedeking, of

What Happened After a Friend Staked Him For a Hundred. At a dinner recently given by a Wall
street man who is known for his hos
pitality gambling was the subject of conversation, and many stories were
told to show how the turn of the cards
or of the wheel had made fortunes for
some men and had made beggars of
others. The host told of one man who
after pawning his watch at Ostend
played, and retrieved a fortune which had been lost and won "another for good measure." Similar stories were told by other members of the dinner company, and the subject seemed to have been exhausted when a quiet man who lias the reputation for daring
on the floor of the exchange said:
Some years ago at the Saratoga club
house I saw a young man whose father
I knew chip away thousands at the
red and black game. He had been at
it for three days, and I was present
when his last chip was raked in. We
walked out together, and when we reached Broadway he said, T feel it in me that if I could go right back now
and begin where I left off I'd win.'
His manner impressed me, and I staked
him for a hundred and went back to the club. Is'ow, from that little starter
what do you think he won?" After all
had guessed, naming sums away into the hundreds of thousands, he said,
He lost the hundred and owes it to me
yet." New York Tribune.

TIMBER WOLVES.
The Cunning V"th Which They Trap and Kill Deer. Probably of all animals there is none
which has more exciting experiences than a timber wolf. The wolf of fiction is a gaunt, hungry, evil looking animal. The wolf of reality in the north is slick and fat and about SO pounds for females up to 140 for males. He never chases rabbits, but is willing to finish the remains of an owl's supper. But if some one has put a rabbit down doped with poison he generally polishes that morsel off. They hunt deer by preconcerted plan. The pack station themselves down wind. Then one makes a circle and comes wind rights on the deer, which may be lying down or feeding, and of course makes a dash, never realizing that there is a circle of death dealing enemies before him. When the deer Is coming in full jump the wolf first makes a short spring of six or eight feet, but the next Is from twenty to thirty feet, and before the deer realizes danger his end Is certain. But if he chances to get off his doom Is sealed, and within three to seven miles he is run down or corralled. They seem to get liervous a&d excited and. to ikuow, that there is no escape aud turn to bay, and that ends It. St. Louis lost-Lispatch.
