DIDN'T DELIVER DELEGATES

Washington, D. C. Fob. 6 Congressman James E. Watson, "Whip" of the house, showed up here suddenly this week. It is said that Mr. Watson, who is busy running for governor of Indidana, had things on his mind when he came rushing back to the nation's capital, and that he was not chiefly concerned with congressional roll calls. The story has to do with the Ninth district of Indiana, where Congressman Charles Beary Landis holds forth, and it is-said that Mr. Watson is hento find out why he is not getting all the Ninth district state delegates. Congressman C. B. Landis is known to he lukewarm towards Watson. It has been said in some quarters that ZVIr. Landis is against Mr. Watson. It is said here that Mr. Landis of the Ninth, will go on the carpet in the sanction of Speaker J. G. Cannon, there to show cause why lie should not ho disciplined for dereliction of rluty towards Mr. Watson's candidacy for governor. Watsou and his friends, it is said, were keenly chagrined because of tlx1 showing he made in Fountain and Howard counties, in the Ninth district, where W. L. Taylor and C. W. iMiller surprised the Watson forces by taking down several delegates. It is said that the Watson clan is trying to get an understanding with Conpressman C. B. Landis before other counties in the Ninth name state delegates. The indications are that certain persuasive methods have succeeded with Foster and Chancy, as Watson is starting well In their districts. Conpressman Crumpacker, it is reported, already is in line for Watson, though he has denied it. The test comes soon for Gilhams of the Twelfth. NO CASE ON RECORD There is no case on record of a . cough or cold resulting in pneumonia; or consumption after Foley's Honey and Tar has been taken. It stops the cough and breaks up the cold quickly, j Refuse any but the genuine Foley's Honey and Tar in a yellow package. A. G. Luken & Co. CENTERVILLE, IND. Centerville, Ind.. Feb. G The French

Africa Is the Original Home of This Luscious Fruit. Tbe humorists always associate the African with the watermelon, assuming that the tnste of the colored man for his favorite dainty arises from his life iu the southern states, where the melou vine grows like a weed. As a fact, however, the African taste or the watermelon is hereditary. The vite is a native of Africa, where it is found wild in the great central plains of the continent, and has also been cultivated for many ages. In Kgypt the melons grown along the Nile rival those of southeastern Missouri. The melons mentioned by the Israelites as being among the good things they had In Egypt were undoubtedly ! watermelons, for in the wall paintings about the time of the exodus the melon vine is represented, and in one case a Ions orocession of slaves is depicted. cac;i bparln? on his si,ouider a huge dark green watermelon. i;otanists say that varieties of the meou are found in southern Asia, and some even claim that the plant grows wild in central and South Africa, but Africa is no doubt the original home of the melou. and In his preference over every other kind of vegetable or fruit the African merely displays a taste that has become fixed in his racw by thousands of years of indulgence, for in central Africa ripe watermelons are to be had every month iu the year.

Chicago. Feb. O.-YVflliam H. Taft and William J. Bryan are to be the candidates for the presidency uu the same platform, is the view of Tljma3 faggart. chairman of the Democratic national cuanmiiticc. The whole ii-sue in the coining campaign will be, to his mind, the tariff and the p-rsoality of the two men. Voters are to be put to a ciloice between Mr. Bryan's oratory and Secretary Taft's avoirdupois. As Mr. Taggarl regards the. political situation Secretary Taft and Mr. Bryan are the certain nominees of their respective- parties. It is his belief that President itoosevelt will absolutely control the coining Chicago convention, which means Tuft as the candidate. Mr. Uryaai. he says, is likely to be the only candidate before the Denver convention. "We just aiboui know who the candidates are going to be," he said, in a general conversation of politics and politicians that occurred in the Auditorium hotel ;resterday. 'I have talked the matter over with tne political leaders from all pants of the. county and there is very little difference of opinion concerning tbe nomine s. "We have also talked over the matter of the issues of the campaign.

Frankly, we cannot see much to go i upon. The president's somewhat sen- j sational message tine other day is gen-j erally regarded as the platform upon j which he is backing Secretary Taft's candidacy. The day it appeared in print Mr. Bryan came out with a strong indorsement of the president's : 'attitude. What then is the difference. between the candidates?" ONLY A TRAMP. Raiting the Curtain For a Moment on One of Life's Tragedies. A recent incident which holds In its

Times. It Is another illustration of j how careless tbe world is of the lndi vklunl and how- thick is the. cloak which one may wrap about bis personality. Not long ago a laborer employed by the Erie railroad fci Jersey City was run over by a train and had ! his leg cut off, A noliceman telephoned for an nm- i

bulance. The Injured man lay on a j the cit' a"orney to look up the recgrass patch, apparently breeding to ! orcl o every applicant for a license to

death. Just then a typlcar railroad tramp in dirty rags sauntered along. He tapped a policeman's elbow. 'May I ask what's the matter, officer?" he inquired. "Man bleed'ag to death," replied the policeman. "Would you mf nd if I looked at j him?" asked the tramp. "I might be of service." 'Go ahead," responded the officer. Bending low over the wounded laborer, the tramp asked for water to wash his hauds and then begged the crowd for clean handkerchiefs. With a half dozen deft, rapid twists ho made a tourniquet and stopped the flow of blood. "Are you a doctor?" some one asked as the man slipped away through the crowd. "I used to be," be replied as he hurried off. Patriotism In the Making. Patriotism in New York is cosmopolitan. They have a flag drill !n the schools in which th children of every ra'-' anrt dime, as the hymn book says, are taugnt to salute the stars j and stripes and giro "their heads, j : their hands and their hearts to their j ! country." And in some of the big I ' downtown schools you may see chlii dren from homes German, Italian, Syrian, Scandinavian, Jewish, Hunga rian. Chinese, Armenian, Greek and j heaven knows how many other nation- ; alities all joining in this picturesque ceremony. It gives one a realizing sense of the variety of material which ! it put into this crucible we call a city j and which in another generation or i two will be simply American. Boston Transcript. Talking Through the Nose. So called "talking through the nose" is not talking through the nose at all, but rather failure to do so that is, instead of letting the tone flood into tho nasal cavity, to be re-enforced tbre by striking against the walls of the cavity, which act as sounding boards for the tor confined within that cavity, we shut off the cavity and refuse the tone Us natural re-enforcement. It takes on as a result a thin, nnresonant quality wbk-h we call nasal, althongh it is thin and unpleasing because it lacks true nasal resonance. The only remedy lies in ceasing to shut off the cavity. Katherine Jewel! Everts in Harper s Bazar For a long time it has been expected that Mrs. J. L. Gardner of Boston, would provide by legacy that the famj ous Gardner colection shall go to the Museum of Fine Arts, but instead it is understood that she will provide for the perpetual maintenance of the Fenway Museum as a separate institution.

SAD MEN VICTIMS Will Get No Liquor Licenses at Muncie in the Future, H is Claimed. ORDINANCE THE CAUSE. Muncie, Ind., Feb. 6 If rigidly en forced, as it is thought it will be bv ordinance adopted by the City Council at its regular monthly meeting this week, will prove the most drastic legislation against the liquor traffic that ever has been enacted in Muncie. The ordinance, passed without dieI sent, requires the chief of police and sell liquor in the city or within two miles of the corporate limits, and requires that the chief of police file a remonstrance with the County Commissioners whenever it shall be found that the applicant Is a man of bad character. The special object is to prevent the reissuance of licenses to men who have been found guilty of any violation of the law, and if this feature be enforced a number of the city's most prominent saloon keepers will be out of business after their present licenses expire, as there are only a few of them that, some time or other, have not paid lines for violations of the law.
