COUNTY LOSER BY HUNTING LAW Although Many Licenses Are Purchased, No Game Is Restocked.

519 LICENSES THIS MONTH. MORE HUNTERS' PERMITS ISSUED THIS MONTH THAN ANY PRECEDING MONTH IN THE HISTORY OF THE COUNTY. Up to date the county clerk, has Issued 619 hunters' licenses this month. This beats all records established , in an yone month heretofore. The license costs $1 and the state gains all the profit The county clerk receives no compensation for all the work required In filling out the blank forms. He even has to pay the postage for the correspondence with state headquarters, and if he sends the check by registered letter he has to pay the additional cost The law regarding the fees from kunten' licenses provides that not less Chan one-third 6f the amount received shall be expended for restocking the state with game. No game ever has een sent into Wayne county since jpe law went into effect. If one-third Jt the amount collected for licenses in the first twenty-five days of this month were spent for game and the game placed in Wayne county it would mean $173 for the purpose. But other months are to be considered, although November Is the leading month of the year for hunters' licenses. Upon the law, hunters would have reason to complain in this county. They pay in the money regularly and receive a license giving them permission to hunt in return. But the fund Created in this manner is supposed to go to restore the game and Wayne cotmty has received no benefit The clerk Issued thirty-seven licenses yesterday. OWNS FLOCK OF MALLARD DUCKS Milton Man Owns Domesticated Fowls. Milton, Ind., Nor. 26. John T. Manlove, a farmer residing near Milton, has a flock of domesticated Mallard ducks. Some time ago he secured Mallard eggs and they were hatched by hens. The meat of this domesticated fowl lacks the gamey taste of i progenitors owing to the difference .11 the food supply. LIBRARY SL5W' POKES. Time Killing Methods of Officials In Continental Europe. "Americans who grumble about having to wait a long time for book when applying to a public library, said a Boston literary woman, "should try to work or study In a foreign library, par- . tlcularly in Germany. "The typical continental librarian takes no account of time. The reader, worker or student must turn in his or her, application for books at least a day In advance. The men who search for the books applied for are aged, tottering creatures who have been shuffling around the dusty piles of books for ears, and the word hurry Is not In their vocabulary. "The most priceless books and manuscripts are kept In places which are perfect fire traps, and disorder predominates in every department When you speak about the impossible methods employed the librarians tell you that they are too poor to introduce any modern indexes or catalogues. This Is to some extent so, but as a matter of Act they would not change If they had all the money In the world at their disposal. "They do not wish to encourage the common people to use books. The learned are among the aristocracy, and the spread of the knowledge which is hidden In those wonderful literary museums Is far from the purpose of the men at the head of Europe's libraries. "There may be some delay In our li braries, but our people In the lower walks of life are certainly ahead of the common people of the old world In the matter of getting books when they want them, and generally free of charge.' New York Telegram. The Town to Bo Born In. In the German town of Kllngenberg, Bear Aschaffenberg, Bavaria, in addition to having no rates to pay for the upkeep of the town, those actually born in the parish receive from the municipality a sum of 12 15s. a year. This sum, if Invested regularly at say, 8 per cent would entitle the owner to rcelve about 1.500 at the age of sixty a very handsome old age pension. Were It not necessary that the Inhabitants should prove birth in the parish before becoming entitled to this payment the popularity of Kllngenberg as a place of residence would doubtless be enormous.

Ohio 's Governor Would Take Foraker's Seat in Upper House of National Congress for He Says So.

Columbus, O., Nov. 26. Following the conference between Senators Foraker and Dick and Governor A. L. Harris, the Governor last night issued a statement in which he announced himself as a receptive candidate for United States senator. His statement follows: "Appreciating as I do the requests of friends and members of the Legislature I have yielded to the extent of becoming a receptive candidate, but I have no coalition with any other candidate for United States senator and I HALL IS REMODELED Needed Improvements Made On Chemistry Building at Earlham. CLASSES ARE INCREASED. The Perry science hall at Earlham college has just been thoroughly remodeled and as it now stands is a credit to the local institution and the equal of any similar building in any college in the state. The remodeling of the building is the result of the efforts of Prof. H. N. Holmes and he has been receiving many congratulations. It was necessary to make changes on the liall owing to the greatly increased number of students in the chemistry classes. Formerly the 'assembly room of fie building had fortyfour desks. Last year this was adequate, as there were only thirty-two students to be provided for but at the beginning of the present school term It was necessary to accommodate seventy-three students. Work was i mediately started to improve the building and today the assembly room can accommodate one hundred. On the first floor the formerly unused front room has been drafted into service and turned into a quantitative laboratory, accommodating twelve students. Dr. Holmes has planned to give a semi-popular course in commercial chemistry, which only requires one years previous training, and this will attract many students who are after a practical knowledge of the subject A quantitative analysis room has been provided for and it will easily accommodate a class of twenty-four. The laboratory for the first and second year men has been remodeled and it will now accommodate easily one hundred students. Throughout the building new blackboards have been placed, the desks and wood work stained a dark brown, nickle-plated water and gas fixtures have been put in and many other improvements made. DYNAMITE IN THE" MAKING. Workmen Who Are Encircled by Death I Gallons and Tons. So thoroughly deceptive is dynamite In the making that you are apt to be disappointed on viewing .the surface of things. You could more readily fancy thunderbolts leaping and crashing from tender blue skies than that the most fearful forces in creation are hidden under such a peaceful exterior. Nitroglycerin, a cupful of which would distribute you over square miles of landscape, is diligently mixing around you In hundreds and thousands of gallons. It is making itself in big iron retorts, cascading down leaden gutters and merrily tumbling in minute Niagaras Into immense .vats, where the deliquescent yellow peril pursues its Journey powderward. Out of one receptacle It fares furiously through special lead coils, driven only by cooling blasts of air. and is drawn off like draft ale and piped on to the next perfecting stage. Gaze with the nitroglycerin expert into one of those big caldrons. The Interior is brilliantly illuminated by electricity, the only Illuminating agency permitted in or about the danger houses. Around you are other houses at uniform distances apart and connected by a series of narrow gauge tracks wherein workmen are railroading nitroglycerin from here and pulp cotton from there to be compounded into dynamite and blasting gelatin. Greatest care is taken In rolling the product from house to house. As soon as a loaded cart is ready to pass out of the nitroglycerin house, for instance, a semaphore signals from an adjoining station, to which the consignment is carefully hurried. Around you are long storehouses packed with pulp In tons of innocent whiteness. Presently this pulp will assume a tan color under the nitrating process, and then, suddenly becoming carbonite, red. cross, hercules, judson and giant powder, forcite or what you order. It develops the quasi virtues of dynamite dynamite or blasting gelatin In which more natural forces are condensed to the cubic inch than exist anywhere else in creation. Death, curbed and sleeping, encircles you in gallons and tons. Annihilation threat- ! ens at every turn In the form f poten tial pulverizing forces. But the man and the mercury are there also, alert responsive, reliable. Leslie's Weekly.

Frazee Boosted for Chairman ' of Sixth District Republicans

am in no sense opposed to any of them. I had nothing to do in bringing about any of the conferences here in this city this week and nothing was done at any of them so far as I am concerned." Governor Harris can count on fifteen votes In the caucus, and doubtless more will come to his side since he has announced his candidacy. Senator Foraker claims thirty-three votes but it is stated by party leaders the senator is counting on assurances of friendship for pledges. WILL CORNER PINE $20,000,000 Syndicate to Take Control of Northwestern Forests. BIG DEAL IS COMPLETED. Chicago, 111., Nov. 20. One of the most important lumber deals of re cent years, by which a S'-HUX K,000 syn dicate will take control of the pine for ests of northern i Minnesota, is near completion. Representatives of the three big in terests involved the Weyerhaeuser company of Cloquet, Minn.; the Cooke & O'Brien company of Duluth and the Edward Hines Lumber company of Chicago met yesterday at the Union League club to discuss the plan by which the Hines company, either in it self or operating through a syndicate is to take control of he properties. The interests to be pooled are: Lumber in Minnesota and the province of Ontario controlled by the Weyerhauser people, valued at $S,000,000. Lumber in Minnesota controlled by the Cooke & O'Brien people, valued at $11,000,000. The Rainy Lake, Duluth and Winnipeg railroad, controlled by Cooke & O'Brien, 200 miles long, and worth $1,000,000. Between $1,000,000 and $2,000,000 worth of lumber controlled by the Hines people. PROFITS OF THE DUMP. Good Money In Many Old Thlngra That Are Thrown Away. "I get," said a Philadelphia dump boss, "$4 a week, free rent and the disposal of any dump of value. "Tin cans, for instance, belong to me if they are dumped here, and I make a pretty penny out of them. They are turned, you know, into tin soldiers and so forth. "Corks are another perquisite of mine. Many and many an old broken bottle on this dump had a good cork in It. I get 8 cents a pound for all the corks I find. "Old shoes are never too old to be sold. They have always one good piece the piece over the instep that can be used again. The smaller pieces of good leather cut out of them are made into purses and wristlets. "Eggshells also have value. Something like 1,000,000 pounds of eggshell are used every year in the manufacture of kid gloves and print calicoes. "Do you see those eighteen barrels behind there? Well, each of those barrels contains its own variety of assorted marketable dumpage. Each will sell when filled at a good price. There are, I believe, fifty-seven varieties of marketable dumpage, and some dumps yield all the varieties. MJne yields twenty-seven." Philadelphia Press. THE PORCUPINE. Ia Hla LlUlnnc For Salt an Aeqatred or a Natural Taatet Some men who were camping In the Adirondacks several years ago on breaking camp in the autumn left an old tub which was saturated with salt brine. On returning to the same camp the next year they found that the tub had been gnawed until little of it was left.- They were not long In finding out what animal had done the work, for tiie camp was overrun with Canadian porcupines. At night they became such a nuisance that the campers were obliged to kill them to protect their property. The handle of a paddle was gnawed half through. The explanation of their presence In such numbers during that year, when they had not been noticeably abundant in the previous year, is that they had made a rendezvous of the camp, being attracted by the old brine tub. On this they feasted all , winter and for that reason were greatly pleased with the locality. An interesting query is this: Is the liking for salt an acquired or a natural taste? Were they ever able to gratify that taste to any extent before man gave them a chance to do so? St. Nicholas. An extraordinary addition has been made to the exhibition of inventions now being held in Berlin. A shoemaker named Wegner, living in Strasburg, has sent in a, clock of the grandfather shape, nearly six feet high, made entirely of straw. Wegner has taken fifteen years to construct this strange piece of mechanism. It keeps perfect time, but under the most favorable circumstances cannot last longer than two years. ent la held by E. M. Haas of this city. Frazee is being boosted as the result of the gains made by the republicans in Rush county at the last election. He is sure to encounter opposition from other sections of the district, as Frazee has those who do not like aim. m yell as, maa trtmtt

ARCHBOLO TELLS OIL TRADE PERILS Witness Says He Once Offered To Drink All Oil in The West.

GOES ON STAND MONDAY. WILL RENEW HIS STORY OF THE WORKINGS OF THE GREAT CORPORATIONTELLS HOW ALL BY-PRODUCTS ARE UTILIZED. New York, Nov. 26. John D. Archbold told a good deal about the man-1 ufaeturins and administrative details 01 me on Dusiness. as regaras procur-i ing the supply and marketing it, at Wednesday's Standard Oil hearing. His session on the st?.nd was short but his direct examination will be resumed on Monday. Mr. Archbold's apprehensions, owing to what he and Mr. Rockefeller call the .-hazardous nature of their business, seem, according To his testimony, to have been of graver nature than Mr. Rockefeller. They were such. Indeed, he said, that In the 'SOs he sold Standard Oil stock. He was not required to say whether Mr. Rockefeller bought any shares he disposed of. While he lacked confidence in this hazardous business, he had gnlt confidence in his judgment, and he told pleasantly of having offered, when approached by people who said that there was oil in the west, to drink all that was found there. If Mr. Archbold's offer had baen taken 'ip hii task would still be before him. The fields now produce 170,000 barrels a day. lie said on Tuesday that there was at present stored in. the mid-continental field more oil than would be taken out of the tanks in the next ten years. His Memory Was Good. Mr. Archbold never fell back on the loss of memory, but there were things which re didn't know. He was "telling what an extremely important part of the business the manufacture of the by-products had become and In enumerating he was rapid and ample helped by a bit of paper. Among those which the company now makes up he said were "naphtha, gas oil, fuel oil, paraffin oil, compounded oil, filtered cylinder oils, unfiltered cylinder oils, waxes, candles, greases, coke, pitch, road oils, asphalt and paving residuums, roofers' wax, soap stock, cordage oils, acid oil, turpentine and substitutes, petrolatum and vaseline." He admitted that he didn't know toe precise nature of all the substances on his little list. "I may say," he said, "that the work of developing these articles has been one of the most Important branches of the Standard Oil company's business. Scientists and experts have been procured both at home and abroad, and we have spared no efforts to discover new uses to which to put our crude supply." Spanish Nicknames. One of the peculiar ways in which Spanish differs from English Is In the names the language gives to all people with a certain infirmity or peculiarity. A blind man la referred to as el ciego, a .man with but one eye is a tuerto, a pug nosed man is cbato, one who is cross eyed is a bisojo, a cojo is a lame man, and a manco has but one arm. If he is humpbacked, he is a jorobado; If baldheaded, a calvo, and if his hair is very short he is a pelon. The feminine titles for the same classes are the same, with the exception that they end In "a" where the masculine terminate with "o." These short names are used most commonly. In fact, they are applied as nicknames la many cases, and especially among the lower classes persons are addressed or referred to only by these names. A Wedding Present. A widower In Scotland proposed to and was accepted by a widow whose husband had died but a month or two previously. To celebrate the occasion he asked the widow's daughter what she would like for a present. She wanted nothing, she said, but being pressed to name something she replied: "Well, if yon want to spend siller you might put up a heidstone to my father." London Telegraph. The Ruling Passion. "John! John!" called the excited little wife. W-what is it, Lucy?" muttered the big baseball player as he drowsily turned over in bed. "Why, there is a man downstairs." "W-what's he doing?" "He's In the dining room after the plate." "Trying to reach the plate? Put him out. Kelly; put him out at third!" Kansas City Independent. Reproved. "I suppose," said the sad eyed youth at the musical, "you know the difference between bel canto and coloratura r "Young man," answered Mr. Cumrox severely, "I never bet on race horses." Washington Star. Practical. "Darling, I mean to prove my love for yon not by words, but by deeds." "Oh, George, did you bring the deeds with you?" Baltimore American. Never bear more than one kind of titrable, at a time. Some people bear three kinds all they have had, all they hare now and all they expect to have.
