Mr. O'Neal said that he had made several trips to the wrong places because of this, and he did not especially like such exercise. Council man Williams recommended that he get a bicycle and City Clerk Merrill took exceptions to O'Neal's assertions. It was asserted that councilmen did not have to bring up such subjects, but that complaints should be made direct to the board. Light Plant Report.

A Mid Summer Night's Dream. Saturday, March 27 Vogel's Minstrels MEW PHILL! P8. All Week High Ciass Vaudeville. "A Midsummer Night's Dream. By all odd the biggest attraction ever offered at the Gennett theater it the remarkable combination of the Russian Symphony Orchestra of New York and the Ben Greet Players in "A Midsummer Night's Dream," on Wednesday night. The play has been the most popular in the repertoire of the Greet players for the past twenty years and the famous Russian orchestra has made a remarkable name for itself by its brilliant playing of Mendelssohn's exquisite music. The combination has proven the biggest drawing card of the year in all the Eastern cities and is now on its way to the Pacific coast for an extended tour. Mr. Greet has always been noted for hia unique production, working along lines entirely his own and appealing to the public's brain as well as heart, but this is the most Important enterprise with which he has been connected. .- " It goes without saying that the Gennett will ; be filled to overflowing on Wednesday night, especially as two or three rows, of orchestra seats will have to be removed in order to accommodate the big orchestra. ; The performance will be given here precisely as given " by this company and orchestra at Carnegie Hall. New York, and in all the other leading cities. Vogel's Minstrels. At the Gennett theater on March 27 marks the eleventh annual appearance of John W. Vogel's big city minstrels in this city. The organization is a large one and comprises the foremost artists in the minstrel sphere and the world of novelties. Chas. Gano is the principal comedian of the company, and we are pleased to note thar as a star he shines more brillinatljr. than ever. He is the prince of good fellows and possibly has more friends than any comedian on the minstrel stage. ' As a performer, he is brilliant, refined and entertaining, bears the reputation and distinction of being an end man who is free from vulgarity, has a splendid voice, is graceful in action; in short we consider him one of the most artistic black-face comedians now before the public Cairo's associates are hardly less clever than himself, for Manager Vogel seems to have had first choice when selecting the corps of artists found with this clever company. Sam Harris, droll humorist, "Bill' Carney, coon shouter, John Goss, bone soloist, Rolen, novelty entertainer and the Lane troupe of acrobats are a few of the matchless specialists who will appear in the all-feature olio.-. The New Phillips. The public gets tired of seeing old, worn-out acts in the acrobatic line and there is nothing quite as disgusting as ; seeing something that you have seen before carried out in detail. The Three Lesinrings are fully aware of this sentiment aud have produced an entire new bill in .the acrobatic feats

that entertains. You have the circus

complete in them. The barker bands out his lightning "bark, the pretty girl exhibits her powers of acting and the clown sets the house in an uproar continuously. This is one of the strongest bills which has come to the New Phillips. f LaFeyre and , St. Jojin have a little Japanese ; singing and 'dancing bill which introduces the mto the Richmond public. They also have some excellent skirt dances." Arthur Abbott gets next to human nature. Abbott is not the usual comedian. He is unusual. Mr. Abbott has just gotten over a severe case of tie grip but bis voice shows remarkable power and is enough to give him several calls. Good, old fashioned cakes are made from Mrs. Austin's buckwheat flour. Now at your grocer's. SHOWED LENIENCY Common Sense Prevailed When Police Raided Woman's Home at Portland. YOUNG SON IS v A CRIPPLE Portland's police force has shown a spirit more humanitarian than that of the courts probably, and for which it is being commended at home. Just at present Portland is conducting a crusade against alleged houses of ill repute. Alleged cases of adultery are being investigated as well, and wherever it is believed a man and woman who are not married are carrying on a pretense of such a life, the police are making their own investigation. In a raid Saturday night a man and woman were taken into custody. The woman, however, is the mother of a twelve year Qld boy who suffers incessantly from white swelling. The police were in a quandary. If they took the mother away to jail, there was no one to care for the boy. If they did not prosecute the woman, they could not prosecute the man. The boy needed his mother's constant attention. The predicament was end ed when the. paramour of the mother was fired from town and the mother instructed as to future conduct. Druggists Find Eczema Cure. The local druggist is naturally slow to recommend a remedy for any disease; he will make a recommenda tion as a rule, only after he has been thoroughly convinced. For. he is not looking merely for one sale, but must have permanently the confidence-: of his customers. - , Perhaps no remedy in the drug gist's stock has been more widely en dorsed by druggists themselves than the specific eczema cure, oil of wintergreen, thymol and glycerine, as com pounded in D. D. D. Prescription. Among hundreds of , letters from prominent druggists we quote a few: Mr. Higgenson of the Higgenson Drug. Co., Wichita, Kansas, says: "We have a number of very en thusiastic people who have been cured by D. D. D. Prescription. These cured patients do as much to increase the sales as ' any advertising. You cannot make your advertising too strong, as we are ourselves enthusias tic in pushing the goods." The Voegeli Bros. Drug Co., Minne apolis, Minn; T. P. Taylor & Co., Lou lsville. Ky.; Wolff-Wilson Drug Co.. St. Louis, Mo.; A. Baur, Terre Haute, Ind., and scores of other leading drug gists have written the strongest kind at endorsements for D. D. D. Prescrip tion. For sale by all druggists. COUNCILMEN SCARED Englebert Tried to Assassi nate a Mouse But Was Foiled in Effort. STUDY PUTS IT TO FLIGHT 'A tiny little mouse and the antics of the councilmen and the city admin istration, furnished about' the only ex citement of the meeting last evening. It was during the discussion of routine business, which was about the only business before Jhe council and which was so uninteresting that the noise made by the dropping of a pin would have been heard throughout the entire hall, that the little rodent made its appearance... Councilman Englebert's feet furnished its first field of operation. When the councilman realized that the mouse was at his feet he lifted his mighty left and awaiting a favorable moment, let It drop with a resounding thud. It was expected that this would be the last of the poor little mouse, but somehow It skillfully evaded the number 11. - The mouse made a scamper for home, back, of Councilman Von Peln. Councilmen Brown and Von Pein. by a shuffling of their feet, succeeded in getting the animal to return to Mr. Englebert. He stamped his foot and was about prepared to mount on top of his desk when the rodent went toward the desk of the city clerk. It ran along the edge and was about to cross where Mr. Study was seated with his feet propped on the table Something about Study seemed to give the moose a hunch that he had better turn back. The last seen of it, it was crawling under the desk of City Clerk Merrill. Mayor Schillinger rapped for order and tlM business

WILL BE HAVEN TO WORLD SAYS DR. HURTY Secretary State Board of Health States New Health Laws Will Prolong Life for Three Years. IMPROVED SANITARY V CONDITIONS ASSURED Board Will Select All Health OfficersThey Will Serve a Longer Time and With Larger Salaries. (Special ' Correspondent.) Indianapolis, March 16. Indiana will be the haven for everybody on earth if - the prediction made yesterday by Dr. J. N. Hurty, secretary of the state board of health, comes true. He says that by reason of the new laws enacted" by the last legislature he expects that the average length of life in this state will bo lengthened by three years. In other words, he believes that the new laws have added three years to the lives of every man, woman and child in Indiana. This is wliat Dr. Hurty said about it : "We expect to raise the health rate of Indiana and then watch the death and sick rate go down. I confidently expect to see the average duration of life in Indiana increase three years in the next decade under the opera tions o the law.- Under the provisions of this act we shall be able to show the people of the state how- to enjoy more abundant life." - How About Married Men? Isn't that fine? Just think of it three years longer to live. This will probably be good news to all except married men. By a prpper use of the increased power conferred upon the state board of health by the act of the general assembly organizing the plan of se lecting local health officers and pre scribing their duties, Dr. Hurty expects to see the work of betterUg sanitary conditions go forward by leaps and bounds. The act provides that instead of being elected for only one year, all county, township, city and town health - officers- shall be elected for four years. The salaries of such health officers are . increased and the state will be entitled to more of their time. .The chief provision of interest to the state board of health however, is that the act places all local health officers under the direct orders of the state board of health. All local health officers are required to give bond in order that the state board may hold them to a proper discharge of their duties. Any local health officer may be removed by the state board for cause. The act also pro vides for the examination of all applicants for appointment as health officers, whereby the state board expects to obtain officers skilled In sani tation as well as in the practice of medicine! Would Have Been Saving. The board feels, however, that the legislature did an unwise thing In refusing to pass the McCarty measure designed for sanitary school build ings and the medical inspection of children in the public schools. "If the bill had passed it would have meant the saving of $500,000 to the state," said Dr. Hurty. "It is a well known fact among physicians that a child can do as much work in three years under proper sanitary con ditlons as it can accomplish in four years when the conditions are not conducive to health. vThis means a saving of 25 per cent. It would have taken a number of years to make all No More PILES No Matter How Bad Your ease Is Or How Long You Have Had It, Pyramid Pile Cure Can Cure It. Free Package Sent to Prove It.

tary, but such a condition could even tually be made to exist and a great saving would result. "The medical Inspection part of the bill that failed would have prevented 90 per cent of the school epidemics which occur annually and which result in a suspension of the schools with a continuation of expense. Rec ords of the 1906 school year in In diana sltow that suspensions and consequent exoenses for which the state received no return whatever involved an outlay of $80,000. i "In addition, that part of the act would have cut down the death rate. In 1007. $XS& school children died in Indiana. The state board has estimat ed that 80 per cent of these lives were needlessly lost through unsanitary conditions in school buildings and the lack of early medical attention. v. Revenged Themselves. ' The McCarty measure -passed the senate, but when - it arrived in the house Word was passed around that McCarty, a democrat, had voted against the Tomlinson bill to repeal t'ae ' county option law and many of the friends of repeal in the house vot ed against the - McCarty bill as a means of revenge. An order has been issued by the department of drug and food inspection that hereafter no samples of .food or drugs will be analyzed unless re ceived from a health officer or the department has been communicated with. Kxcept in this way no samples for analysis will be received from individuals. The rv.Ie h?s. been made necessary by the fact that during the last few months the work of the laboratory has increased wonderfully and it is now taxed about to its limit. H. E. Barnard, state food and drug inspector, says that many of the analysis requested by Individuals are foolish, but the department has tried to attend to all of them. One day recently a negro girl came in," said Mr. Barnard, "and brought a sample of chicken gravy, declaring that a man in the boarding house where she lived had tried to poison her. That is a sample of many of the requests we receive. With the exception of a Wood bill concerning the appointment of a police matron for Lafayette, on which executive action has been delayed by reason of the fact that the bill was lost in the rush of affairs on the closing night of the session of the legislature all acts of the recent session are now in the hands of the state printer. It is probable that the bound volumes will fie in the hands of the county clerks and the clerks receipts in the hands of Governor Marshall by April 15. Then the governor will issue a proclamation and the laws will be in force. Are 180 New Laws. The acts as sent to the printer by the secretary of state make 180 new laws. Two hundred and fifty-six pages have been officially O. K'd. and 192 of these pages have been run off the press. The volume of the acts of 1907 contained 697 pages of acts anc 300 new laws. The first volume of the acts of 1907 was received at 3 o'clock on the afternoon of March 23. and it required seventeen days to issue the remainder and place them in the hands of the county clerks. , Demarchus C.
