LOCAL DEMOCRATS ADMIRE SH1VELY Are or the Opinion He Will Make Very Competent Public Officer. - HIS SELECTION ADVISABLE STATE KERN PERMITTED PER- . SONAL PREJUDICES TO DOMI- , NATE HIM AND OB8CURE HIS ' SOUND POLITICAL JUDGMENT. Local attorneys and men prominent la public matters believe . the demo- ' cratic party made a wise selection, when It chose Benjamin Shivery as Ita candidate for the senator In preference to John W, Kern. Shively is regarded as a more competent man vthan Kern and one whose senatorial acta will reflect more to the credit of his party than would those of the Indianapolis attorney. Shively is held to be a man of broader Ideas and more fair minded. Nothing has been said throughout his . campaign that might reflect on his integrity of character. ' ' Kern the More Wily. Locally Kern is held to be more of the wily politlcan than Shively but a man of less ability. Kern is declared - to be bitter, while Shively is looked upon as far more affable. Kern is said to permit his prejudices and personal disfavor to enter into his political affairs and predominate over his good Judgment. And then It developed there was a faction of the party that believed Kern had. had enough - L . ' . . - cuiocei at me piuu tree ana otners ought to be given some of the present crop. Believe 8hlvely Competent. Henry U. Johnson and Thomas J. Study, both democratic attorneys, who are acquainted with Shively say they believe he is a very competent man and will make a good senator. They declare his selection in preference to Kern Was advisable. "In the first place he is honest and nothing else has ever been said about him," stated Mr. Johnson. Mr. Study has not been a partisan of Kern from the first announcement of his candidacy. But after all, republican members of the Wayne county bar, maintain the party could have done better by selecting Mr. Study as its senator. His ability Is eaid to be greater than that of Shively or Kern either. CONTRACTS AWARDED.

Demand for Liquor Strong in a Quaker Community

New Castle, Ind., Jan. , 14. That cockleburr and other impurities can be found In the best of wheat was demonstrated In the investigation the grand jury is now making as to the Bale of liquor, by drug stores. In a certain section of the county is a small town located in the midst of a Quaker community and the grand jury had de cided not to Investigate the drug store in this town In tme belief that little or no whisky was sold. ' Then the decision was rescinded in order that all druggists of the county might be treat TRUSTEES FORMED AN ORGANIZATION Select Officers and Appoint Committees for Work of Present Year.

TWENTYj)AY POLL The. twenty day poll of the county local option advocates has been started and up to date success has been reported at the headquarters, Kelley Hutchinson building. The optionists are not expecting the forecast thus determined to be true because they feel many will be classed as doubtful who will at the polls vote for the "dry" cause. VISITING TEACHERS. , i E. A. Shilling, C. H. Cliffton, Miss Ora Winkley, Mrs. Hazel Alexander, Miss Dora Beer and Miss Jennie Gilmo all teachers from Adams township, Ripley county, located along the Ohio river, are guests of the local schools today and tomorrow. It is seldom that so long a trip is made by teachers to visit another school and it speaks well for the local schools that they should be the recipients of such a visit.

ed alike, and in a spirit of fair play. The druggist of this town was ordered j to bring what liquor sale slips he hads

in his possession before the grand jury and there was great surprise when he brought as many if not more than the other druggists of the county had submitted. No one accuses the Quakers of purchasing liquor, but some one had purchased liquor to quite a large quantity in the drug store in the community. The disclosure has created considerable amusement at the expense of the grand jury members. PNEUMONIA TAKES ANOTHERJN FAMILY Mother Contracted Disease While Nursing Son. Mrs. Elizabeth J. Ingersoll, one of the best known women In . the east era part of the city died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. William Wilkinson in Chicago Tuesday evening of pneumonia. But two weeks previous her son Charles had died from pneumonia in Chicago, and it is believed that she contracted the disease from, her son while attending him. Mrs. Ingersoll was an elderly woman and has been a widow for several years. Mrs. Wilkinson is the only surviving member of the family. The body arrived this morning from Chicago and was taken to the home 1814 North A street. The funeral will be held Saturday morning at 9 o'clock from the home after which the burial will be in Concord cemetery. Mrs. Ingersoll upon' the death of her son accompanied the body to this city where burial was performed two weeks ago. She returned immediately to her daughter's residence in Chicago. CITY STATISTICS. Deaths and Funerals. EDMONDSON The funeral of John F. Edmondson will be held Friday morning at 10:30 o'clock from the North A Street Friends' church. Mr. Edmondson had been a member of this church for many years. Rev. Allen Jay will conduct the services. Burial will be at Earlham cemetery. THE DEVILFISH. He Is Not a Man Eater, but a Gently Reared Monster. Contrary to popular belief, the devilfish Is not a man eater, according to an official publication issued by. the Smithsonian institution, Washington, after an authoritative study of the subject by Dr. Theodore Gill, associate in zoology In the national museum. "The food of the devilfishes," he says, "so far from being large animals and occasionally a man or so, as has been alleged, appears to be chiefly the small crabs, shrimps and other crustaceans and young or small fishes. Rarely does one prey on large fishes." Dr Gill says that In a number of respects the young devilfish grows up under nursing and training remarkably like that of a human being. It is nourished, for Instance, from its mother's milk. It Is a peculiarity of the devilfish, be adds, that, instead of laying many thousands or millions of eggs, it normally has only a single young one at a birth. A baby devilfish is sometimes as broad as five feet and weighs twenty pounds or more. Dr. Gill adds that devilfishes move about from place to place In a sort of submarine flight, speeding themselves along by flaps of the long winglike fins. Day Dreams. If you have a particular piece of work to do, get it done. Don't wait for the mood to strike you. Don't dream! There are more precious hours wasted in day dreams than any of us would care to think about if we counted them. The queer thing about day dreams Is that so few of them ever amount to anything. The dreamer is only semiconscious when building his air castles, so, as a rule, they have no practical foundation. While you are at work, keep your mind on what you are doing, and do not let It wander off to what you would like to be doing. Only by keeping your mind on what you are doing now can you bring It fresh and keen to the things you like doing best when the time for doing them comes. Thinking too much about even great happiness takes the "edge" off it. The best time for day dreams is after you have gone to bed. New York American. The Better Part. A delightful little story is told of Frosper Merimee. the French author. He was once guest at a royal hunt, when hares, pheasants and other game were driven before the emperor and his followers, and the servants picked np the victims of the sport Among all the members of the hunting party Prosper Merimee alone had no trophy to display. "How does this happen V asked some one. " "Where game is so plenty the merit of a marksman seems to me to lie In hitting nothing. replied Merimee, with grave -courtesy, "so I fired between the birds." The cost of the Simplon tunnel was $15,000,000 and It Is regarded as being one of the greatest engineering achie vements of the age. The Simplon tunnel was begun Nov. 13, 1808, and the Swiss and Italian boring parties met at 720 a. m., February 24, 1903. ' Gold Medal Flow la U bast for m&k-

3C NICE FOR THE STATE Wayne County Pays Out Over $24,000 for Schools and Gets Back $16,000. A DISPARITY IN PUPILS. Wayne county has paid to the state for the education of the school children $24,436.12. In return the county will receive only $1637.20 to be expended for the children of this county. The disparity Is due to the small number of children of school age In this county. Each year this county pays oat more than It receives in re turn. It is seldom the deficit is as great as for the January settlement of this year. The per capita for each child is $1.69. The semi-annual distribution of state funds has been determined upon by F. A. ' Cotton, superintendent of public instruction. It shows Wayne county has only 9,664 children of school age and it is upon this number as a basis that the distribution is made. The small number of school children in the county naa been the cause of worry to the school author! ties for a number of years. It is re sponsible also for a direct loss In mon ey to the county.
