"SHORT AHD UGLY" WORD WAS PASSED III STATE SENATE

tn Argument Over the Three Mile Road Law, Senator Fleming Called Hawkins a

Liar."

TROUBLE LOOKED FOR BUT IT DID NOT OCCUR Yesterday in the House It Was a Bad Day for Anti-Liquor Bills, Many Being Slaughtered.

Palladium Bureau, Indianapolis, Feb. 4. " Things looked rather serious in the senate for a minute yesterday afternoon when Senator Stephen B. Fleming, of Fort Wayne, told Senator Nathan B. ; Hawkins, of Portland, he lied. Those who stood around feared that there might be a personal clash, would say that I was doing it for pergot away with it all right. ,; And after the session had adjourned Senator Frank Kistler. of -Logans-port, called Hawkins a liar, using an ugly word In connection with it to emphasize his charge. Hawkins Was Target. , Hawkins had to take it from all sides, ' yesterday afternoon. Before the senate for discussion was the claim of William H. Drapier, of this city, for $28,000 for his services as stenographer for the legislature from 1877 to 1887. Drapier has never received the money from the state for his services and a bill was introduced in the senate to allow the claim. Fleming and Kistler were -in favor of allowing the olalm, as were several other democrats and republican senators as well. But Hawkins took the other side. He characterized the olalm as a robbery of the state treasury. The discussion grew warm. Mattingly, republican, and Wood, also republican, were favoring the allowance, and they and several other senators made speeches for it. Kistler made a speech that aroused the ire of Hawkins. Hawkins got up and said that Kistler was the author of one of the most Infamous pieces of legislation on the statute books, the three mile law. Kistler answered that he was not the author of the law. Then some reference was made to the fact that Hawkins was the republican candidate for congress in the Eighth district last year and that he was defeated by Congressman Adair.

Defeated by Brewers. "Yes," said Hawkins, "I was defeated by the brewers and democrats. The brewers worked against me, and one of them was Mr. Stephen B. Flemiing, of Fort Wayne. Fleming went j through Adams county with his big ! automobile and' left a trail of beer beihind.7 Fleming, by this time, was only a . few feet from Hawkins. Several senators attempted to call Hawkins to order on . the ground that he was not , discussing the subject under consideration. "Mr. President," Fleming shouted, addressing the lieutenant governor, "the senator from,. Jay is mistaken; he tells an untruth. In other words, he lies." As Fleming said this he turned and

AFTER

DOCTORS

: FABLED LydiaEPinkham's Vegetable Compound Cured Her. Willimantic, Conn. "For five years I suffered untold agony from female troubles, causing backache, irregularities, dizziness and nervous prostration. It was impossible for me to

walk upstairs

without stopping on the way. 1 tried three differ, ent doctors and each told me something different I received no benefit from any of them, but seemed to suffer more. The last doctor said nothing would restore rny health. I bezan

taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable

Compound to see what it would do. and I am restored to my natural health."--Mrs. Etta Donovan, Box 299, Willimantic, Conn. The success of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from roots and herbs, is unparalleled. It may be used with perfect confidence by women who suffer from displacements, inflammation ulceration, fibroid tumors, irregularities, periodic pains, backache, bearing-down feeling, flatulency, indication, dizziness, or nervous prostration. , For thirty yea" Lydia E, Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been the standard remedy for female ills, and

suffering women owe it to themselves

to at least give uus meoicme a trial. Proof is abundaut that it has cured thousands of ethers, and why should it not cure you , ,

shouted the last word into Hawkins ear and shook his finger at him. Uproar For Moment.

There was an uproad for a moment,

hut Hawkins did not resent the asser

tlon. He and Fleming glared at each

other but that was all. : Then Senator Mattingly arose and threw oil on the troubled waters by declaring that the senate ought to cease such child's play and get down to business, and the thing blew over. When the time came to vote on the passage of the bill appropriating money for the Drapier claim. Fleming announced that he had intended to vote against the bill, but since he had heard the ("asinine and false statement of the senator from Jay," he would vote for the bill. The bill passed. After the session had adjourned, Hawkins, still with the' declaration by Kistler rankling within him, approached Kistler. The Lie is Passed. "I want you to substantiate that statement," said Hawkins. , "What statement?" said Kistler. "That you arexnot the author of that three mile road law." "You are a liar." "I want you to substantiate your statement." "You are a damn liar." And Kistler and Hawkins both walked away, in opposite directions. There are those who believe that the end of this is not yet and that it will break out afresh before the session is much older. It is the sensation of the session thus far. Fleming Keeps Out. Senator Fleming says he is keeping his hands off of the local option fight

and that he does not intend to get into it. Fleming owns a brewery in Fort Wayne.

"If I were to take a hand in the lo

cal option fight," he said, "people

yould say that I was doing it for personal reasons. Therefore, I am keeping hands off. I have not said anything to any one about it and do not

intend to." . "Will the repeal bill pass the sen

ate?"

"I don't know a thing about it." Massacre in House. The ax was applied to the Sicks bill which Waa to strengthen the blind tiger law, and also to the Sicks bill which . would prohibit bootlegging. The latter bill provided that liquors

could be sold only by the drink and

should be drunk on the premises where sold. It was discovered that

this would abolish the growler. Then a Kleckner bill to suspend a license for the first violation and revoke the license for the second violation of the law was killed. It was felt that this was going a little too strong and that most saloon keepers could not stand for- it.

But there are plenty more liquor

bills in the house, and some of them will not be killed.

Symptoms of 60 Cent Gas. There are some symptoms of CO-cent gas for Evansville, Fort Wayne, Terre Haute and South Bend. Senator

Durre, of Evansville, has introduced a

bill in the senate providing that no

more than sixty cents a thousand cu

bic feet shall be charged for gas in

cities having a population between

50,000 and 100,000. Evansville is now

the only city that would be affected at once by the passage of the bill, but

after the next census Fort Wayne,

South Bend and Terre Haute would

be in this class. - South Bend does not

appear to be, deeply Interested, however, because no representative from that city appeared before the committee when a hearing was held. J. M. Barrett and S. E. Mulholland, of Fort

Wayne, were present in the interest

of the gas company in that city.

Beaaley For Corporations. John T. Beasley, of Terre Haute, made the chief argument for the public service companies. He said it . was unreasonable to expect gas companies operating in cities of that class to manufacture gas and make a profit at 60 cents. The cost of manufacture was too great and the consumption too small, he said. He told of the large investments of the companies in cities which would ba affected" by the law and said that should the biU be passed it would work a hardship on both companies and consumers, as some of the gas companies would be forced out of business. The committee seemed to think that gas could be manufactured cheaper at Evansville than at Fort Wayne, Terre Haute and South Bend, because all the coal is transported by river instead of by raiL The committee took no final action on the bill. An Injunction BiU. The bill fathered by the Indiana State Federation of Labor on the injunction " question is ready for introduction in the house. It provides for a trial by jury in cases where contempt in the violation of injunction is charged, and that such trial shall be held before some judge other than the one that issued the injunction. . County Option Law. There is still the same uncertainty

A public demonstration of popular approval in the shape of an enthusiastic crowd of eager bargain seekers continue to come to our store. And it is to be noticed that the people attending this sale are not of that class who are always chasing the "something-for-nothing" will-o'-the-wisp, but are of the intelligent, discriminating class, who know the difference between a bona fide sale by a responsible merchant of , .

and a fake "SALE" by irresponsible venders of shoddy goods at prices that sound very cheap, but which are IN FACT more than the goods are worth. So-called "SALES" of the latter variety are so numerous that many people refuse to attend any SALE at all because they believe YOU BUY AT YOUR PERIL AT A SALE, and they would rather pay the FULL PRICE for goods guaranteed by a responsible merchant than to "take their chances" at a SALE. They are right, as a GENERAL RULE. . - But ''FeKman'o SaOecAre in81nrepfii1t They have always been different. That IMPORTANT FACT has become generally known among the people, and that's the reason hundreds of people are attending this CLOSING OUT SALE who are not in the habit of attending "SALES" generally at all. THE ONLY CHEAP THING ABOUT THIS SALE IS THE PRICE AT WHICH WE ARE OFFERING THE GOODS. EVERYTHING ELSE IS FIRST CLASS AND HIGH GRADE! Every single pair of shoes sold in this sale carries the same UNQUALIFIED GUARANTEE that obtains in our regular trade at full prices. That is the REAL inducement that attracts intelligent buyers to this sale. Don't lot this opportunity pass without supplying your wants for a lone tlmo to oomo, because it will be a Ions time before you will cot onothor llho opportunity. This closing out sale of the Hum'pe stock is JUST THE BEGINNING of our business relations with hundreds of new customers. WE ARE GOING TO OPERATE THIS STORE PERMANENTLY, and our prime object is to GAIN YOUR PERMANENT TRADE not to make money off of you in this sale. And we are going to give you such SUBSTANTIAL BARGAINS in this sale that you will feel like giving us your patronage after the sale is over. The few items mentioned below represent but a small fraotlon of what you will see when you come to the store.

as to what. will happen to the bill for

the repeal of the county- local option

law. The- fight has . narrowed down ia the house to a point where the vote of one man will probably bave to decide whether the bill passes or not.

That one man is Representative Ratliff, of Wayne county. Ratliff wants to vote in favor of repeal, it is believed, but the republicans are holding over his head a pledge which he signed last fall before the election at which he was a candidate for re-election, in which he said that he would not vote for any bill that would repeal or change the county option law. Ratliff was asked yesterday how he would vote on the repeal bill. "I don't know how I shall vote," he said.; Evidently he is still thinking.

NORMAL SCHOOL PROJECT

SENATOR KIMBROUGH AND JOSEPH GODDARD OF MAGIC CITY WILL DELIVER ADDRESSES AT MEETING. At the request of the Muncie Commercial Club, the Richmond Club extends the courtesy of calling a meeting of citizens interested in educational matters, as well as those interested in the State's financial budget, at the Commercial Club rooms tonight. Two of Mnncie's most prominent and influential citizens will be present to address the meeting on the question of

establishing a State Normal School at Muncie. What Muncie Wants. Muncie has some valuable college buildings standing idle that the city

proposes to give to the State, if , the State will establish a school there. The Muncie Commercial Club is much interested in the matter and a bill is now before the legislature embodying this proposition. The men who will be here to address the meeting are Senator C. M. Kimbrough. who has made addresses of much interest on two occasions before the club, and the other is Joseph Goddard. who is well known to many local citizens, in both religious and business circles. Mr.

Goddard is rice president of tho Mather Brothers Co. The meeting will be at 8 o'clock. "These speakers are worthy of a respectful hearing, stated Secretary Haas today.

By the Young Turk party the word "Ottomans" has been adopted to cover all the people of the empire Mohammedan. Christian of Jew. This word strictly belongs only to the descendants of the Saltan Osman's tribe and its dependents. But the name has

long been loosely used for all Turkish-speaking Moslems, . though many of them are descendants of the Sel-

Juks, who were the original Osman-

lis's enemies. Now it is to be used

in the most 7 comprehensively patriotic sense to mark, the ne fraternity.

The Fungous Plant. All tho energies of the fungous plant seem to be directed to the prod actios, of germs for propagating its kind. Their number Is often almost incalculable. Yon have doubtless observed that the common puffbaH when ma tare is filled with a fine dost, and this consists entirely of spores corresponds fn; to seeds, which are eventually diffused In the air by tho bursting of tho puffball. In a single paffbs.ll mors than 10,000,000 of them bave been counted, and when these minute bodies are once set afloat In tho atmosphere they are distributed abroad over an Indefinite space, being so small that It Is difficult to conceive of a place from which they could bo excluded. Their astonishing fertility and rapidity of growth are among the most remarkable characteristics of this vegetable tribe.
