The Shelbyville convention was a disappointment to us in more ways than one, as everyone will realize who has followed district politics through the columns of the Palladium during the past two months. In the first place the break from Campbell was a regrettable and ill-timed incident and served no good to Wayne county. It placed Wayne in the position of being the first county to break from its candidate, a fact that can not be much relished when it is considered that even the smallest county in the district, Union, with only five delegates, remained true to Charles Stivers until he released his delegation. Wayne should have done the same and had she done so the otticome of the con vention would in all probability i ave been different. In the second place the successful candidate was not the man whom we upposed would be chosen. We knew Barnard had a strong organization working for him but we also felt sure the party workers of tho district knew his weakness as a campaigner, too well to allow him to secure the plum. As the republican organ we have the best interests of the party at heart and not the interests of any man and for that reason we did what we could to discourage the candidacy of Barnard. We have no regrets for that action for we believe that had our efforts been successful the republican party in this district would have easier sailing at the polls next November. Between now and November the republican organization has its work cut out for it. The democrats in this district are organized as they never were before and the prospects of a hard tussle are apparent. Unmindful of whether or not the Shelbyville convention may have left some sore spots with some of us it is the duty of all of us to forfeit Such things and unite as we were never before united, in order to maintain republican supremacy in the old Sixth district. Our advice to republicans who are not satisfied with the selection of Barnard is to forget that feeling and work just as hard for him as though he had been their choice. We believe in opposition but let Buch opposition have it out before the nomination and afterwards work for the success of the party. Hew Python Settle Quarrels. It was in October, 1804, that the big python at the zoo fell into the deplora Die error or swallowing his compan ion, a snake only a few Inches shorter than himself. A similar disaster is reported from Bombay, where for some jears two large Indian pythons hacj occupied a cage in the museum of the Bombay Natural History soclety There was some misunderstanding lie tween them over a partridge, for they were found so tightly entangled in each other's coils that the utmost en deavors of peacemaking keepers fail ed to effect a separation, and thev were left to settle the matter accord lng to their own lights. Next day there was only one very stout python visible. These large reptiles evidently know but one way of settling a quarrel. London Sketch. May Be Sign of Trouble. "In a certain uptown barber shop," said the Bronxite, "there is a sign that eays, "If you are not pleased with the barber's work, tell the proprietor.' Now, I visit the place at least a couple of times a week and always get a good shate except when I get Into the proprietor's chair. Ills razors are al ways rasping, his work careless and results bad. Now, should I tell the proprietor? Would he be insulted if told him he ought to be fired and his chair given to a real barber? Of course the sign Invites It, but I won der what would happen if I told him Just what I think? I'd try it were It not for the fact that he's huskier than I am." New York Globe.

WILL HE MAKE THE
RACE FOR CONGRESS Speculation as to Kuhn's Attitude Toward Accepting The Nomination. NOT WILLING TO SAY. CLAIMS THAT HE JUST QUIT ONE CAMPAIGN AND IS TIRED AND WILL MAKE NO DECISION FOR SOME TIME. In an interview with a staff correspondent of an Indianapolis newspaper the Rev. T. H. Kuhn, of this city, states he has made no decision as to the probability of his reentering the congressional race in the Sixth district. He w ill reach some conclusion within a few days and if he agrees to take on the congressional harness again, he will go into the race at once and begin an aggressive campaign against W. O. Barnard. The Indianapolis newspaper writer says: Thus far Mr. Kuhn has been the only name mentioned in connection with the place, and it is generally understood among the democrats of tho district that an effort will be made to smother any other booms that may be started later. With the preacher-politician on the ticket the democrats believe they will have an equal chance with the republicans of carrying the district, hut they would not be so op timistic with another untested nominee. Mr. Kuhn was the nominee in the last congressional race, and he made such inroads then upon the normal re publican majority of the district against James K. Watson that, hopes are entertained he would be able to defeat any other republican nominee. Judge Barnard, who won the exciting contest at Shelbyville yesterday, is not considered by the democrats as an easy opponent. I he judge, they say, is above reproach personally, has a clean record in politics, will make a strong campaigner, and in all will be a worthy opponent tor any nominee the democrats may put into the con test. GOODRICH MAY QUIT Thought He Will Resign Republican State Chairman. as OTHER DUTIES INTERFERE. Indianapolis, April 11. Rumor has been revived that James P. Goodrich state chairman, is to besign in favor of Fred A. Sims, secretary of state and acting chairman. It is stated positively, however, at hearquarters that nothing of the kind may be expected any time soon. Sims is now practically in charge of the campaign. Goodrich's duties as receiver for the C, C. & L. railroad are keeping him out of Indiana most of the time. FLEET NOT TO VISIT ENGLAND Invitation Extended Turned Down. Washington, April 11. The American government has decided not to accept the invitation of the British government for the Atlantic fleet to visit ports of England on its way home. The answer will be made within the next few days. Secretary Metcalf went to the cabinet meeting with a memoranda showing it will be impossible for the fleet to extend its itinerary in any possible manner and return home by February 22. next, the date set by the president.

"You're too old for me and I won't marry you," declared 15 year old Tisha Halpin when Steven Ferdina, old enough to be her father, insisted that she fulfill her promise to him. Tisha was firm in her resolve not to marry Steven, who owns up to being 45, even when she was summoned to Alderman Holt's court, charged by Ferdina with obtaining money from him under false pretense, Ferdina alleging that he had supplied the funds with which Tisha was to buy her wedding outfit. After the girl had promised to give back the clothes and return all the money intended for wedding finery. Ferdina withdrew the charge. "But I still love her," he wailed, as he walked out of the alderman's office with Tisha's trousseau under his arm. "I guess I've been stung." CONGREGATION WILL BE PRIVILEGED TOSMOKE Atlantic City Pastor Has an Interesting Scheme. Atlantic City, N. J., April 11. Religious services exclusively for men. in which the congregation will be privileged to smoke and divest, coat and collar, if desired, is an innovation planned by the Rev. Sydney Goodman, assistant rector of the Episcopal church of the Ascension. The church for men is t be conducted in the new parish hall recentlyerected, adjoining the church in Kentucky avenue. Services are to be held immediately after the regular Sundayevening service. A moving picture show will afford entertainment. Mr. Goodman feels that, many men who refrain from at tending church services by reason of j einbarrass-meu due to the presence of ' the fair sex. will take advantage of the opportunity to listen to religious topics expressed in a practical manner.

PROSPECTS OF THE PARTY NOT DIMMED Industrial Conditions of Indiana All That Could Be Expected.
SpECA MVESTIGA T I 0 N . THIS WAS UNDER AUSPICES CF THE REPUBLJCAN STATE COMMITTEETHE POLL WILL BE TAKEN AS USUAL THIS YEAR. Industrial conditions throughout ih i state are not going to influence ro-, publican voters to support any other tic ket than their own. according to the ' report made by the investigating .ontmittee of the republican state orgau- , ! ization. This committee lias been en-' I gaged for four weeks in making a ean- ! vass of the Mate and visiting different ! manufacturing concerns in all parts of i the state for tho purpose of ascertain ing it' the industrial conditions will have any effect on the prospects of the party at the fall election. Special investigations have been made in counties where there are large factories. In most hn-alities these investigations have been made to the republican state committee. At committee headquarters it is said that the reports are highly satisfactory. "We do not find," said a republican leader yesterday, "that the industrial situation in Indiana, which seems to be getting better all the time is going to influence republic-am to support any other ticket except iheir own. The republican organization was rather anxious about conditions for a time, but the reports that have come in have allayed all anxiety. Poll to be Taken. May 3 the republicans will take the usual "six months" poll. The work will be done under the direction of th - republican state committee. Poll books, with letters of instruction to the county chairmen and precinct committeemen, are being sent out bv Secretary Carl Riddiek. Said Acting Chairman Sims yesterday: "This is the first poll that will give the republican state committee any idea of what the situation is in the state. Precinct committeemen' will make their report to the county chairmen and the chairmen will report to the state committee. Personally I believe that our six months' poll, which is six months before the election, will show as large a plurality for the republicans as was shown two years ago." $1,000 PILE CURE.

Y IT ALL Man Locked Up in Jail Says Fascinating Feminity Kidnapped Him. CHARGED WITH FORGERY. Camdeu. N. J., April 11. Locked up in the Camden City jail on a charge of attempting to pass a worthless check. Harry Leppler of Baltimore, told the Camden police that he had been kidnapped by two women and held prisoner in a house on Eleventh street, near Callow Hill. Philadelphia, for nearly u week. To gain his release he said he promised to pay the women $'2fK telling them he would get the money in Camden, where he said he expected to suddenly disappear. Leppler was arrested through the suspicions of a hack man who had been driving him and a young woman about Camden. The woman, the hackman said, seemed to be directing Leppler's movements. After several vain attempts had been made by Leppler to cash a check for f'JuO at several saloons, the hackman decided to drive the couple to the City Hall. WhiLeppler was being taken into the hall ihe woman mysteriously disappeared. "That check is ail right." declared the hall sergeant, but when the police telephoned to the Baltimore bank on which the check was drawn the bank replied that Leppler had no account there. Leppler claimed that while he was a prisoner in the house in Philadelphia he was kept "doped." He is about i years old, and claims to be the aeent for a wholesale liquor house in Baltimore. He says he has a sister residing at Allentown. Pa., and a brother in Philadelphia, but refused to give their addresses. TTi NearUt 3:r.
