CIGARETTE BILL HAD 110 EMERGENCY HOT YET STATUTE

According to the Usual Procedure the New Law Will Not Become Effective Until First of May. PHONE COMPANIES TO FIGHT WICKEY BILL Measure Provides for Joint Connections Profession I .11 , ai jurors Have Keceivea a Telling Blow. . Palladium Bureau, Indianapolis, March 1. Governor Marshall has signed the lilll that amended the anti-cigarette lav; but the bill is not yet a law because it lad no emergency clause Therefore, It will not become a law until the acts of the general assembly have been printed and distributed to all of the county clerks of the state and the re ceipts of all the clerks are received by the secretary of state. Then the gov ernor issues a proclamation and this puts the laws into effect. This usually Is done in May. The new anti-cigarette bill prohibits the sale of cigarettes to minors and provides a heavier penalty than the old law. But under the new law Just enacted cigarettes may be sold to adults. The argument used in passing the bill was that dealers throughout the state are now selling cigarettes In disregard of the law and men who wish to smoke them send out of the State and have them shipped in. Therefore, if the men will have them, said the supporters of the bill, why not let them have them in a legal manner, but dealers must remember that the present law stands until the governor's proclamation is. issued. ft Will Rise Ire. Representative Wickey, of Lake County, has Introduced a bill that will arouse the Ire of telephone companies throughout the state. The bill would require that where two or more telephone companies operate exchanges iu the same city or, territory they shall make connections of the lines so that ft subscriber to one company may be able to get a connection with a subscriber of the other company. This rriangement, it is pointed out, would I e a great convenience to the public v:zd it would cut down the number of telephones in use, for then there would ba no need of a subscriber having a phone of each company when he could get the same connection with one !)honc.- But the bill was introduced so ate in the session that it does not Stand any show of getting through. Gets a Hard Jolt. The professional juror got a hard folt, Saturday, when the house passed a bill abolishing him. You have all teen the hanger-on In the court room vV.o is always there when court is in session. lie is there, of course, in the hope 1 1. r.t there will be a vacancy ou R jury and that he will be called to J fill it. He is usually a man who can lie bought or handled by any person who has business in court and in many Instances he Is there because some corporation or some other person interested ?n a law suit has hired him to favor It in rase he gets on the jury. This picture is not overdrawn in the least. The professional juryman is a menace to Justice and always has been. But this bill put him out of business. It was introduced in the senate by Senator Harlan of this county, and it provides that whenever there is a vacancy on a jury the jury commissioners shall draw names to fill such vacancies. This does away with the professional juryman who stands around and waits to be called. Lawyers of the state will appreciate what the new law means. DAYS OF DIZZINESS. Come to Hundreds of Richmond People. There arc days of dizziness: Spells of headache, sideache, backache;'." Sometimes rheumatic pains; Often urinary disorders. All tell you plainly the kidneys are tick, loans' Kidney Pills cure all kidney Ula. Here is proof in Richmond. Dallas Cassel, 711 S. Eighth street, Richmond, Ind., says: "About fifteen years ago I suffered from kidney trouble which was brought on by heavy lifting. I felt very weak, was subject to dizzy headaches and was so miserable in every way that I thought I would never be well again. Hearing of Doan's Kidney Pills, I procured a supply at A. G. Luken & Co.'s drug 6tore and soon after beginning their use, I felt like a new man. In July, ltH3, I publicly recommended Doan's Kidney Pills and I can only add at this time that I have had no need of a kidney remedy since." ;; For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

" On the program of the Princess Amusement company's production of " A Girl at the Helm," which will be seen at the Gennett next Friday, March 5, you will find the name of Countess Olga von Hatzfeldt. The prob abilities are that you will regard this as a mere stage title a name assumed or advertising purposes and pass the little lady by with no other thought than that she is a remarkably pretty girl. As a matter of fact you would be doing her an injustice, for in this case the title, "Countess," was not given her by her press agent, but is hers by the royal grant of the Emperor of Austria. The Countess von Hatzfeldt is, perhaps, the only really and truly countess on the American stage. She is the only daughter of Count Edmund von Hatzfeldt, formerly of Wildenburg, Austria, now living quietly in Hamilton, Ohio. an exile from his native land as the result of a political feud. Graustark. "Graustark or a Love Behind a Throne," to be presented at the Gennett on Thursday, March 11, proved a record breaker in outsellig all other romantic novels of the same period. And according to all reports is also proving a record breaker as a play, capacity audiences seeming to be the rule wherever the play is produced. "The Land of Nod.

The signal success of this performance is admitted by all, and the potency of its drawing powers is generally regarded by theatrical people as practically without a parallel. "The Lion and the Mouse." The wide distinction won by Charles Klein's "The Lion and the Mouse" throughout the country, , places - this drama in a field of popularity in which there are few others. . A most timely theme was chosen by the capable and celebrated playwright and his masterful treatment of the topic carried the play into instantaneous and seemingly everlasting Togue. Henry B. Harris played his part exceptionally well, before the clever actors he employed were given an opportunity by his ever apparent expenditure, in properly mounting the play. Not only having been played for over a year in New York city, "The -Lion, and the Mouse1 has

a, firm following in every city in the

Unitel States. An estimate was re cently given, embracing the numfiber of people who had witnessed the Klein drama during its remarkable career, and after deducting a conservative number for those wto have seen it more than once, the t tal still remained in the tens of millions. Mr. Harris sends "The Lion and the Mouse'' to the Gennett on Saturday, to renew its acquaintance among the local patrons of the theatre's best offerings. "A Midsummer's Night Dream." The largest traveling organization which will appear this season, is the combination of the entire Russian Symphony Orchestra of New York city, sixty musicians, and the Ben Greet Players, forty in number, who will give a magnificent performance of "Midsummer Night's Dream" at the Gennett on Wednesday, March 17. Some conception of the magnitude of this undertaking may be gained when it is realized that the performance will enlist the services of two distinct organizations, each of which as a rule is able to draw very large audiences to their individual performances. Never before in the history of the drama or of music has a symphony orchestra rendered the incidental -music for a theatrical performance, never before that is except siruce Ben Greet gave the first of thesefferformances last summer at Ravlnia Park.

ESCAPED LUNATIC BEING HUNTED FOR Portland Man, Fugitive from Easthaven, Missing Since Last Friday.

THREATENED HIS FAMILY IF THE MISSING MAN CAN BE FOUND HE WILL BE PROMPTLY RETURNED TO THE HOSPITAL FOR SAFE KEEPING. The sheriff of Jay county is scouring the country in search of James Dull, an insane man, who escaped from the Easthaven Indiana Hospital for the Insane at this city, August 25, 1908, and returned to his home near Portland. The young man has become mentally unbalanced again and has been In hiding since last Thursday. Two and ahaif years ago. Dull, who is only twenty-three years old, was declared insane and brought to the hospital here. After his escape he remained quietly at home until last week, when he became violent. His parents were unable to take care of him and Thursday application was made to the J county clerk to remand him to the hos pital. The young man had threatened the lives of his parents and on one oc casion had driven his father from the home. It is believed he learned of the intention to return him to the asylum and that led him to flee and go into hiding. Assaulted Turnkey. The demented young man before being taken to Easthaven in December, 1006, was kept in the Insane department at the county jail at Portland for several days and succeeded in gaining his liberty by striking Scott Pa' : , the turnkey at that time, over the head with an iron bar which he had concealed in his cell. After being returned to jail he was admitted to the institution and a few months later escaped from there returning home only to be apprehended and again sent to the asylum. He again escaped from the asylum and after reaching home was allowed to remain. SPARING" HER NERVES." A Careful, Considerate Visiter and Her Timid Friend. The mistakes which were plentifully sprinkled along Mrs. Comer's career were never regretted by any one more than by Mrs. Comer herself. "I used the very best judgment 1 had." she said, referring to one unfortunate oo eurrence, "but, as usual, everything went wrong. "You see, I went to Greenville in the morning with, Mrs. Hobart, Intending to go on to Nashua, but I changed my mind when the weather turned cool and spent the day with Anna Woods, going home at dusk. I'd forgotten my little bag with my key in it, so I went right over to Mrs. Hobart's. "She'd gone down the road to Mrs. Cole's, but I found her key behind the left hand blind and went right in. "The honse was dark, but I said to myself, 'I won't light a lamp for fear of scaring her, a timid woman, living all alone, as she does.' So I sat in the dark till I heard her coming np the walk. "When she found the door was unlocked she gave a kind of a gasp, so I stepped forward and then, long as I had a cold so my voice didn't sound natural and I was afraid 'twould scare her, she being so timid, I pnt out my hand and laid it on her arm. "And, if youll believe me," finished Mrs. Comer plaintively, "she fell right over In a faint and cut her forehead on the edge of the rocking chair, and I thongh I'd never bring her to! "There's no use trying to be careful with a woman like her." Youth's Companion. CIRCUS CHILDREN. The Making of Acrobats Begins at an Early Age. It is nothing unusual for the larger circuses to carry thirty and forty children, ranging all the way from mere babies to boys and girls of fifteen and sixteen years of age. The majority are traveling with their parents, both the father and mother doing daily duty In the ring, and while often they are trained to follow in the steps of their elders they are seldom allowed to perform in public It Is a common belief among circus men that the performer whose training is not started until after the age of six will seldom make a distinctive record. Following the afternoon show I often eaw groups of boys, some of whom could not have been over four and, fire years old, practicing rudimentary somersaults and hand springs, while their parents looked on with a gratified smile. These were the families of the circus aristocracy, who treasure the records of their ancestors with the pride of a son in his father's sword and who see ao more Inspiring calling for their own children than that of the great white canvas. Net that their education Is neglected In other respects. Several of the families often &lre an instructor perhaps one of the performers who baa the time and ability for such work to coach their children in the standard studies. One circus has a traveling school for the youngsters. If they are to be acrobats, they are to be educated acrobats. Bohemian Magazine.

TOMLINSON BILL WILL BE KILLED UNLESS CHANGED (Continued From Page-boot-legging and blind tigers. But he is in favor of a temperance law that will regulate the traffic along the right lines, he says. Senator Gonnerman lives at ML Vernon, Posey county, and says that liquor is brought into his county from Evansville by boot-leggers and that blind tigers flourish. He does not like this condition. There are other senators who feel the same way, and this means that the liquor people will either allow the bill to be mended or they will have the county option law on their hands whe nthe session clooses. There is a growing feeling among persons connected with the general assembly that it is only a question of time until absolute prohibition will be freed on the brewers of the state. They point to the. progress of the liquor agitation in Tennessee to prove this and say that Indiana is going the same way. Was Different Then. Two years ago when there was a proposition to enact a thousand dollar license bill into a law the brewers fught it tooth and te nail and defeated it. They did not propose to have any interference with their business. That bill had strong backing and was popular throughout the state. The brewers were told that unless they were willing to accept that kind of a remedy for the ills that were inflicting the saloon business in this state, they would bring on themselves a more drastic remedy, but they laughed at the idea. Things are different this year. The brewers would be tickled to death to accept a thousand dollar license law now if they could get it. But it has gone beyond that point. It is not a question of what they are willing to accept now. It is a question of what they can get, and they may not get very much. Are Ready to Scrap. This year they are fighting the county option law with as much or more vigor than they fought the thousand dollar license bill two years ago. This leads observers to remark that the vote of the various counties at local option elections shows that the people are in the right humor to take a swift poke at the saloon business and especially at the breweries which own most of the saloons of the state, and they say that if this legislature bows down to the breweries by repealing the county option law and enacting one that will not regulate the traffic as it should be regulated, the people will, at the next election, as shown by their votes at the county option elections, change the personnel of the legislature and send men to the general assembly who will do what the people want them to do.

ture some members will propose a constitutional amendment to prohibit the manufacture or sale of intoxicating liquors in the state of Indiana. Whenever that is done the state will do just as Tennessee did it will vote itself dry. He is a short-sighted brewer who cannot see what Is coming to him along ths line. It Is tht general understanding that the Tomlinson bill will be called up in the senate today or tomorrow and that every effort will be made to pass the bill in its present form.

WOMEN ARE WOKEN.

A Rather ReundaWwt Way te Prove the PrepeeitioN. Men say women are angels; worn say women are cats. Let us pause a moment aad reason upon this thine. If women are angels however, that does not seem to be the proper starting point. Let us try again. If angels are cats but, ao; that Is hardly reasonable, for angels have wings, and cats do not fly. We must begin again. If women are cats but that tsnt possible, for cats do not talk, and how could a dumb animal express an opinion In words of a woman? Whatever cats may think, they never say a word about a woman, while women wen. women are not cats. Now let us return to the first proposition. If women are angels, they wouldn't say women are cats. Angels don't talk that way. Once upon a time a man married a woman. He said she was an angel: the women said she was a cat. Happy man. not to know the difference) between an angel and a cat! Men say women are angels, aad by' this token women say angels are- cats. Therefore, angels being cats, cats must be angels, and. both being ths same, women are women.

The country now called Mexico was , not so called till 1810, when the revolt ' against Spain began. TJp to Independence the country was called Kew Spain and was divided Into the same number of provinces as Spain, each with a name of a province la Spafaa. with the prefix of "new," bnt New Mexico was not Included In this division. It got Its name In this way: In 15G1 Francisco Ibarra was In charge of an expedition of exploration Into what Is now northern Daranco and southern Chihuahua and discovered sn Indian village near where Santa Barbara now stands In which the houses were whitewashed and the people made and wore cotton cloth, raising the cotton In the neighborhood. He wrote sn account of his discovery to his brother In the City of Mexico, telling him he- had discovered "una nueva Mexico," a new Mexico, another Mexico, meaning that he had found another town like the City of Mexico, and thereafter all this portion of northern New 8paln was known as "Nueva Mexico" that Is, New Mexico which name It has retained, thongh bow much reduced In extent.

Of all animals that supply meat te man the muskrat has been the most abused and the least understood, says iub ouaovre ear. m um bbu orca In the public mind a prejudice that hss been almost unconquerable, bnt truth will prevail In spite of fate. As a fact the muskrat Is one of the neat est and most delightful of animals. It Is a crank In cleanliness. It dines with the care of aa epicure. It eats only the whitest and tenderest morsels. And its flesh has qualities that can bs compared only to terrapin.
