DECISION OF INTEREST.

RULING WAS MADE ON CASE WHERE PEOPLE TRIED TO SECURE ADOPTED DAUGHTER AFTER SHE WAS TAKEN AWAY. J lid go Jordan of the Supremo court lias hold valid the lnw creat inj? the Hoard of Children's Guardians. The decision will be read with interest throughout the state. The judgment was given in the ease of Kgoff vs. the Board of Children's Guardians of -Madison county. The hoard had taken a Jittie girl away from Mr. and Mrs. .lack Kgoff of Anderson, because of the bad environment of the Kgoff Jiome and placed her with a Rev. and Irs. V. W. Kent. The Kguffs sought to have the child, who was an adopted daughter, returned to their custody. Judge Jordan, who wrote the opinion rays: "The constitutionality of the lawcreating boards of children's guardians is firmly established by previous decisions and in a proceeding in the circuit court, of a county to take the custody of a, child from its reputed parents in that county and give it to such lioard. to which the reputed parents jippeared and resisted the action, the Jurisdiction of the court is not open to question. A judgment can not be reviewed on the ground of accident or (surprise, where the record does not show that the defendant moved for a new trial or to modify the judgment or took any steps to obtain relief, in the original action from the effect of the alleged accident and surprise, nor that he reserved any exceptions at or after the trial. The mistake or misapprehension of a party and his attorney as to his riht to introduce rebuttal evidence at a future time, after the trial has concluded, and without obtaining continuance is not a ground for reviewing a judgment tinder Sec. H!. Burns 1901. l.'nless due d ligence is shown to discover and produce all the evidence at the trial, new matter discovered after the trial is not ground for reviewing a judgment. Iti the eyes of the law the welfare of a child is paramount to the claim of its parents or either of them, or any one else." ABSENTEEISM ONE Of THE PERILS Of NATIONAL CONGRESS (Continued From Pase One.) View to encouraging absenteeism. W'e f-tartcd out by erecting an office building. Now we are testing new tangled ideas whereby members shall keep Track of the house proceedings without leaving their offices. "Why not connect these wires with the Washington homes of congressmen' And then probably in the process of development, the time will route when measures will be adopted making it unnecessary for members to come to Washington at all. "The first thing we know the house will rejoice in the possession of up-to-date signal service, including a wireless out fit. From his home in Honolulu the delegate from Hawaii, by merely touching a button or sending a message Ty wireless, will be able to register his vote on a given measure. In like manner he will communicate his views on public questions. Where is it going to end?" FIGHTER EMPLOYED TO SCARE JOHNNIES This Means Taken for Protection of Chorus Girls. New York. April 4. Alderman Reginald Doull. protector of chorus girls, jnade a report to the board of Aldermen on a resolution introduced by him providing for an ordinance to protect the girls from "stage door Johnnies." 3le said he found the police department was empowered to exercise such mperviston. and moved the communication be filed. The board voted affirmatively. Mr. Doull reported later that the theflter which had been instrumental in having the resolution introduced had employed a prize fighter known as Young Corbet t" to stand at the stage door and scare off all prospective admirers of the members of the company. The Origin of Algebra. If Diophatitus of Alexandria, fourth century of the Christian era. was not the inrenter of algebra, then it is not known to whom the houor belongs. ToDiophantus the honor is generally given. The Arabians claim that the invention belong to one of their coudtrymcn, Mohammed Ren-Musa, who flourished about the middle of the ninth century. Certain it is that the Arabians introduced algebra to Europe by way of Italy through Ieonartlo, a merchant of Pisa, who had lived among the Arabs of Rarbary.

STARTLES ATTORNEYS Licensed Saloon Keeper Cannot Be Held For Running Blind Tiger, It Is Said. IS A PECULIAR OPINION. An opinion Riven by Attorney Philip Wilkinson actitiK as jude in the Indianapolis police court has startled the prosecuting attonie.vs of t,ie , i1ire state.

The section starts out: "That! any persons not being licensed under the laws of the state who shall sell j or barter liquors, etc." i For s.' vera I months ihe police have been prosecuting tinder the "blind tiger" law saloon keepers who an unlawful business in rooms adjoining i tjeir licensed rooms, for ihe reason! thai it is s.'ldom that they can p:ove thai ihe law breaking saloonkeepers! are celling or giving away liquor "af(er hours." They have to allege either "giving away" or selling" iu.:heirj affidavits, and frequently they ha been unable to "make" cases even I when men are found in rear rooms with evidences of drinking. The "Mind : tiger" charge proved a happy medium ; until acting Judge Wilkinson gave his i decision. i TRACTION MEETING AY Interested Men to Meet in Winchester.

Thunder and lightning joined last, week in trying to bring about the destruction of Hindman. but all to no avail. During a thunder storm the house of Hindman was chosen tor a prank ot tin' eleciric imps and Ihe proprietor was sinuled out for the victim, but iie only laughed it) the faces of tho spirits of evil and passed through the ordeal unscratched. A boll of lightning entered the house and ran about as if possessed by a demon. From one room to another it passed in search of Arch, but lie was not there. He had gone. Not finding its intended victim the lightning passed through the side of the house. The only damage done was a slight rip in the wt at her boarding.

MAY MEET DIFFICULTY.

THERE IS DESIRE TO PASS PLUM; t AROUND AMONG INDIANA COL-1 LEGES AND EARLHAM HAS MAoj ONE REPRESENTATIVE. Clyde B Heck, a well known jouns man of ihN city, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles. Ptck. wiii again take the examinations required of candidates for a Cecil Rhodes st holarship. Mi. Het-k has taken thes,- examinations twtce and in a h instant e has been sui t es---ful. The fir-t time he was not self vied, betause of the superior athletic ability of one of his rivals, tdorge K. Hamilton, also of this ci:v. The second time a graduate of Indiana I'niversitj was given prcfti t nce ox er Mr. Reck, who has been a student at Earl ham. as had been Hamilton. 1-'i it nds of Reck tio not cxpet t him to mt rt Willi any trounie m meeting the requirement?.. At present, he i. engaged as an instructor in the high -t hool at Nohlesville and is affiliated xxith the foreign lanniiasjr lt n;irl men: His educational qualifications are ex-j pected by his friends to b- more than I ample. He xvas a student iu the local public, schools anil a graduate of the high school xvhh the cTass of Rtu'J. He is twenty-three years old. Ability in athletics is given consideration in making the selection of a scholarship candidate and Mr. Heck would be competent to meet the demands, although never appearing as a star on the athletic field. The desire of the committee having in charge the distribution of scholarships to pass the honor about among the colleges of the stale as much as possible probably will prove a detriment to Mr. Heck. Wabash college will present a candidate, who has qualified j ami inasmuch as that institution has not had representation and Earlhani college of which Reck is a graduate has won the honor, it is believed likely this will work against the local man. Quick Wit. Mr. Aspinali, a clever and reckless barrister, famous in the last century in Victoria for hiu fun and audacity, was addressing an election meeting in liullarat, the ' golden city." The lively advocate had come to that time in his career when much whisky and soda had wrought palpable havoc with his complexion. His speech ended, and questions were invited. "Asplnall' bellowed a Btalwart digger, "tell us what makes your face so red." "Hlushhig at your confounded impudence, sir:"' was the quick reply, lie carried the meeting.
