The Case Is Still Pending and It Is One of the Most Important Cases Which the Body Has Taken Up.

The past year t lie Indiana Railroad

Commission had its hands full as an outgrowth of its efforts to enforc; legislation re-KulatitiK tli- railroads. The commission feels that it lias not enough authority. In a report subDiitted to Governor Hrtily it tots forth the extent in whieh it became involved in litigation diirin? the year VM7. This report includes the case now pending regarding the efforts made by the commission to have a physical connection between the C, C. & L. railroad and the P., C. C. & St. L. railroad made in this city. Concerning this the report reads: "In the superior court of Marion county the P., C, C. & St. L. railroad company has brought action against Hie commission to set aside its order requiring that company and the C, C. fi- I j. Railroad company to make physical connection and interchange business in city of Richmond, Ind.

R. & Ft. W. railroad iigainst an interlocking system at De--atur. This case was heard before Judge Fox and the commission was sustained.

Washington, Jan. 8. If William J. Bryan has a "walk-away" in the democratic national convention it, will lie because his opponents in the party can not control the situation against him. Leading democrats of conservative bent of mind are not willing to admit that "it is all over but the shouting," and that Iiryan has a "lead-pipe cine" on the nomination. The anti-Bryan democratic politicians and the antiBryan democratic press will not tolerate the thought of permitting Bryan to dominate the convention and nominate himself without soing to the last extreme to prevent such a consummation. The democratic convention will be

make Bryan's nomination impossible if they could hang together. It is with lb.: intention, if possible, of getting :':? delegates, or more, ce

The plan provides that as many states as can be induced to do so shall instruct their delegates for favorite sons and those that have no favorite son candidates shall see to it that uninstructed delegates are

composed of 96 delegates. Two-thirds sent. It is hoped by combining the of these, or 4X;i delegates, would be favorite son delegations and the uninsufficlent to nominate Bryan. One- structed delegations that can be wieldtliirdt plus one vote, or 23, would ed until f irther orders a.gainst Bryan.

FRESH INSPIRATION.

NapoUon and His Attitude Toward th Common Soldior. Napoleon understood human nature. He recognized the great truth, "As a man ihinketh in bis heart so is he," nnd knew how to apply it not only to himself and bis own ambitious projects, but to other men aa well. MoreTer, be knew precisely the right moment to apply It to quicken the spark of divine energy which smolders in rrery man, although the ashes of fatigue and failure may cover its light temporarily. A French soldier carried a dispatch lo Napoleon. Just as he delivered it Into the hands of the emperor his vpent horse dropped dead. Napoleon wrote an answer to the dispatch, then, dismounting from bis own horse, he banded the bridle to the soldier. "Take this iiorse and ride back, comrade," ho said. "Nay, aire," stammered the soldier, gasing at the blooded horse and its trappings. "It is too magnificent and arrand for me, a common soldier." "Take It!" commanded Napoleon. There is nothing too grand and magnificent for a soldier of France." The soldier mounted and rode away on his perilous business, ready and willing, and Napoleon's words, repeated through the ranks and columns of his army, gave to his tired troops fresh inspiration and energy. "Nothing too grand and magnificent for a soldier of France!" they said, and the thought that they were worthy of the best inspired them to the mighty deeds which followed.

"As they were separating they discussed a little nervously the receptions that awaited them at their wives' hands and agreed that he who didn't do what his wife told him on getting home should have to treat the others to a turkey dinner. The first man after reaching bis house stumbled about the dark bedroom till lie kicked the cat. The cat squalled, and the man's wife, raising her head from the pillow, moaned. 'Well, go on; kill the poor cat and have done with it. The man frowned ami muttered to himself. 'It is a ease of kill the cat or pay for the dinner.' So he killed the cat. "The second man on his arrival could not find any matches. As he looked tor some in the drawing room he buniped against the piano, and his wife complained.
