With an expresident, Mr. Roosevelt, as an editorial writer for a prominent periodical, and with an ex-reporter of a Cincinnati paper in the white house. It may be said that the fourth estate has established a pretty close connection with high politics in the United States. In these two Instances, moreover, the association is more than theoretical. Some vigorous contributions to the columns of his paper may be expected from Mr. Roosevelt for a year or two, at least. For the journal with which he was connected Mr. Taft did active work for two or three years. Several unsuccessful candidates for the presidency were editors or ex-editors. . Horace Greeley resigned from control of the New York Tribune just after his nomination by the Liberal Republicans in 1S72, and just before the democrats indorsed him and his ticket. The republican candidate in 1884, James O. Blaine, had, at an earlier period, been editor of the Kennebec (Me.) Journal. And he was a real and fighting editor too. Mr. Bryan, who has three times been the nominee of his party and who may get the candidacy again, established the Commoner, a weekly paper, in Lincoln, Neb., in 1901. and has edited it ever since, except for a few months during the campaign of 190S. t The Court Baby. From the Kansas City Times. But why call her the "incubator baby"? She was kept in an incubator only a few days. She has been kept in the courts for the last five years. Another Joke on the Shelf. From the Boston Traveler. The action of a St. Louis Jury, which last week awarded a verdict of $20,000 damages against a doctor because he had left a roll of gauze in the interior department of a patient on whom he had performed an operation, the second verdict of this kind within a few weeks, will be regarded by the medical profession as an unwarranted interference with their privileges. Nothing is more popular in doctors gatherings than the stories told of surgeons who return to their offices after an operation and find a scissors, knife or sponge missing from their kit. The good actor, who can reproduce the facial! expression of the doctor as he slaps his thigh and says, "By jove, I sewed that up in the patient," is always sure of a good laugh. The story of the Irishman cut open first to remove a sponge and then a pair of scissors, who finally begged that they would fix him with a flap and button so that they could get in without so much bother, will soon be on the taboo list with the mother-in-law joke and other like chestnuts.

The Latchstring is Out The latchstring is out. That is the idea that has prompted the citizens of Richmond to expend their time, money and energy in working for the Fall Festival. There has never before existed the spirit of cordial feeling between town and country which Is apparent on every side. For the Fall Festival of last year was a success. There was the distinguishing feature of sincerity about it, "Every Feature Free" was entirely true. It was a surprise to the visitors and it was this surprise which clinched the matter. It cost the citizens of Richmond over $5,000 to make good their promise of free features. But it was appreciated.

This .year $8,000 will be raised to enlarge the scope of the Fall Festival. And still there remains on the advertising "Every Feature Free." The note of sincerity still remains, and with it the assurance in the minds of the people who are to be Richmond's guests that there is no attempt to make a 'good thing out of the Fall Festival. The old idea of the county fair was the right idea. And as long as It held to that idea of co-operation with the farmers the county fair prospered. You know what the county fair has become in all but a few exceptions. It has drifted into the hands of the professionals and the wandering side show fakers. And the old county fair is no more. The Fall Festival idea is what was best in the old county fair no charge for entries and special arrangements for the real people for which the Fall Festival is intended our friends. Few people, even in Richmond, have any real idea of the resources of Richmond. Last year's Festival gave some hint as to the backbone of the "Panic Proof City" but it only skimmed the surface. It was the product of only a few weeks work. This year the Fall Festival has been under way for several months with the added advantage of last year's experience.

Up in the Fall Festival headquarters there is a large chart, taking in a whole side of one wall. On it are the various committees and their members. There is a good reason why that chart takes up the side of a wall. It had "to be large. For all the live men in town are working day and night for the Fall Festival. It is not alone that there are committees, but that the committees are working. There is every reason why the Fall Festival will be better this year than last. The reason is enthusiasm, sincerity and cordial feeling. For the latchstring is out. Especially on October 6, 7, 8. The Second Annual Fall Festival.

IS GIVEN DIVORCEAlbert Brant Gave Attentions to Another Woman and Left. DEFENDANT WELL KNOWN On the grounds of abandonment Mrs. Bell Brant, a boarding house keeper on North Eighth street, was granted a divorce this morning from her husband, Albert Brant, now of Texas, but formerly a well known local traveling salesman. Judge Fox also granted the plaintiff $000 alimony. It was brought out in the testimony of Mrs. Brant, who, with the exception of the two resident witnesses, was the only one to testify, that her husband began paying attention to a local woman and in August, 1907, frankly told his wife that he was done with her. Since his final leave taking, Mrs. Brant has seen her husband but once or twice. On one occasion she met her husband with his affinity who secured a divorce after he began paying attention to her. Mrs. Brant went up to the woman and told her that she had separated her husband and herself and wished her better luck with him than she had had. The defendant did not appear in court and prosecuting attorney Charles Ladd appeared for the state. He made no determined effort to deny the plaintiff a divorce. Mr. and Mrs. Brant were married in July. 1SS2, and lived in this city until his abandonment two years ago. Since this time Mrs. Brant has made her living by keeping boarders. Ready ta Do His Part. An eccentric country squire agreed to employ au equally eccentric rustic to rid his mansion of its plague of flies, the terms being board, lodging and beer for three days. At the end of this period there were more flies than ever, aud the squire interrogated his new employee thus: "Why ever haven't you made a start? You contracted to kill all the flies." "I'm waiting for you. guv'nor." retorted the wily rustic; "you've got to catch 'em first. I only promised to kill 'em." London News.

MRS. DIETRICH, HEROINE OF THE BIDDLE DRAMA IS DEAD

(American News "Service) Pittsburg, Aug. 31. Katherine Dietrich is dead at her father's home, 22 Southern avenue, Mount Washington. . Under that name for several yeats had been concealed the identity of the former Mrs. Katherine Dietrich Soffel, the woman star in the Biddle drama, in. which one tragedy followed another in rapid succession. During the enactment of the early part of the thrilling drama, she was the wife of Peter Soffel, Jr., then warden of the Allegheny county jail, who divorced her for the part she played. It is but a few years since she was the most widely talked of woman In the United States because of her part in the daring escape of the Biddle Brothers, convicted murderers, from the Allegheny county jail. . Mrs. Soffel, wife of the warden, furnished the saws, keys and revolvers which the desperadoes used in effecting their escape and fighting for the liberty she gave them. ' Mrs. Soffel fled Ewith them and was taken into custody when they were captured after a bloody battle near Butler in which, the Biddies received death wounds. Katherine Dietrich had been ill for two weeks in the West Penn hospital where diagnosis failed to disclose any

HAVEBIG TASK AHEAD

Messrs. Nusbaum, Haisley and Heironimus to Arrange Log Rolling. WILL BE HELD IN THE CITY Arrangements for the meeting of the Central Indiana Log Rolling association, in this city next summer have devolved on Lee B. Nusbaum, Prof. N. C. Heironimus and F. F. Haisley, who were chosen as president, secretary and treasurer respectively, last evening at the meeting of the local lodge, Modern Woodmen. The above named men will meet soon and formulate plans for the meeting. One of the most important things which will be considered at an early date will be the selection of the date, at which time the association will meet here. It has been customary for the affair to be held on July 4, and sentiment among the members seems to favor this date. These log rollings are always the biggest things in Modern Woodmen circles. The Central Association, which comprises the largest membership of any in the state is always well attended. This year, the association met at Noblesville, and despite the bad weather it was estimated that there were five thousand Modern Woodmen present. Other business considered at last evening's meeting included routine and the initiation of C. O. Heashe into membership. Ages ana ..its.

TWO AEROPLANES FOR IDIMIAPOUS

The Great Air Carnival to Be Favored by Bleriot and Curtiss. SET THE DATE IN OCTOBER INDIANAPOLIS TALENT ARE NOW BUILDING CRAFTS WHICH WILL BE ENTERED IN THE COMING EVENT. Indianapolis, Aug. 31. Two aeroplanes are already promised for the Speedway balloon and automobile carnival to be held this fall. According to a cable received last night from Rheims, Louis Bleriot and Glenn II. Curtiss will be in Indianapolis with their flying machines at that time. Bleriot is the famous flyer who recently crossed the English Channel in his machine. Curtiss, the American aviator, has won the title of the "Columbus of the Air" because of his recordbreaking flights recently during the French races. Other International aero characters j are being sought and indications are that the Wright brothers, Hubert Latham and Henri Farman will be entered in the races to be held over the Hoosier track soon. Farman attempted several times to perform the stunt which Bleriot did, but fell in the water. He is recognized as a nervy pilot and the Speedway managers are anxious to procure him. The date for this meet has not been determined. It must either be just before the St. Ixwis balloon races. Oct. 4, or just afterward, as several of the contestants will perform in both. In addition to aeroplanes there will be dirgible balloons ?nd spherical balloons in the local events. There will also be automobile races on the fivemile Speedway track. A twice-around-the-clock race and a 300-mile event, punctuated with several shorter ones, will most probably be the motor card. Local Aeronauts Busy. While the eyes of all civilization have been intensely focused on the marvelous achievements of the flyers during the recent Rheims meet, two local aeronauts have been quietly building crafts for similar work. Capt. G. L. Eirmbaugh is busy building two dirigibles and one aeroplane. One dirigible is almost completed and will be launched Monay at the state fair. The other dirigible is being constructed for Carl G. Fisher. It has a gas bag 166 feet long and a frame work 105 feet long. Fisher will enter the Speedway carnival this fall with this new craft, and it is predicted tjiat, because of its size and powerful engine, he will fly away with the laurels. The dirigible in which Bumbaugh, will ride next week has a gas bag, cigar shaped, sixty feet long and a frame construction, thirty-two feet long. The engine weighs 150 pounds, but the three rods in the frame are so rigid that there is not a perceptible sway when suspended. Bumbaugh will ride astride the triangular frame, running backward or forward in order to balance the craft. HURT IN COLLISION. That was a novel experience of two young ladies had who are visiting in I the city. The lady of the house took suddenly ill last Monday and so they accidentally collided with a very large washing.

At 5 o'clock on Oct. IS. lfcCtf. an im mense crowd gathered at a hall in London to witueKS the last state lottery draw iu Eugland. The drawing of prtees on that occasion occupied less than two hours, whereas lotteries drawn soiue years previously were protracted for several weeas. the excitement being so great that doctors attended to let blood in cases where the proclaiming of winniug tickets proved too overpowering for the holders. From the days of Queen Anne lotteries had contributed largely toward the revenue, during the latter years bringing in from $1,150,000 to $!.- 500.000 per annum. The first public lottery held in England took place on Jan. 11. 13f. It was drawn at the west door of St. Paul's cathedral and continued incessantly, drawing day and night, till May 6 following. How ta wurs a Kicking Horse. A good and simple plan to cure a ticking horse Is to hang a bag of sand or grave) from the ceiling of the stable In such a way that the bag will be a little distance behind where the refractory animal is standing. Whenever he kicks he will strike the bar. and la return will receive a smart blow from it. which he will remember. It may take a few days to impress upon his mind that he will always be rewarded for his unmannerly conduct in this way. but unless he is exceedingly stupid he will quickly learn the lesson, and then the bag may be removed. It is asserted that a horse once cored in this manner will never again think of kicking, but whether this is true or not time alone can tell. NO TRACE OF LOWE. New Castle, Ind.. Aug. 31. All efforts to find a trace of Henry S. Lowe, who disappeared from his home here last Thursday evening have so far proven fruitless and the family has about given up hope. Relatives fear he has wandered away In a demented condition.

The KELLOGG Genuine Corn Hakes has ibis Signature STAVING OFF A VOTE. A Candid Explanation by the Speaker of ths House. On one occasion In the bouse of representatives an unusually large number of Republicans happened to get hungry about the same time, while for some unknown reason the Democratic appetite did not require attention. Catching Speaker Cannon napping, the Democratic flxr leader, perceiving that be had a majority, called up a bill and pushed it to a vote. The speaker strung out the voting In all of the various ways known to him, but ot the end of the second roll call the Democratic votes were still in the majority. Though the rules of the house expressly forbade such a thing, a third roll call was ordered by the speaker, a proceeding which called out a redhot protest from one of the Democratic leaders, who demanded to know the reason for the speaker's extraordinary action. The speaker genially advised the protesting Democrat. "The chair will Inform the gentleman," said he. "The chair is hoping that a few more Republicans will come in." A gale of strictly nonpartisan laughter swept over the house, and before it had entirely subsided enough Republicans had been rounded up by the hurrying scouts to fulfill the speaker's wish so candidly expressed. Success Magazine. Didn't Court Publicity. "One of the funniest incidents in court I have ever witnessed." says a Kansas City lawyer in Harper's Weekly, "occurred In a petty court of our city. An old offender had been baled before the magistrate. After a conference with the clerk of the court his honor began sternly to address the culprit as follows: 'I gather that you have already been sentenced teu times for violent assault, disorderly conduct, attempted' "Whereupon, to the amazement of all in court, the prisoner hastily interposed with: " 'I beg your honor's pardon, but would you miud not speaking so loud? My intended mother-in-law is in court, and It might damage my prospects. " False Colors. Sir Augustus Harris one week end took a cab In London for Charing Cross. He had painted in black letters on box and kit bag, "Augustus Harris, T. R. D. L." They stood, of course, for "Theater Royal, Drury laqe." But the cabby thought that they stood for some learned degree; that here was an innocent, helpless scientist whom he could easily bilk out of an exorbitant fare. So on reaching Charing Cross the cabby frowned down at Sir Augustus and said darkly: "A good O shillin's worth, sir." But Sir Augustus laughed and banded the man one and six, the exact fare plus a tuppenny tip. The caLbv looked at the money and

The heat taiotsfood, there are germs ia the water, and even fruit has its dangers. For a dozen and one reasons the bowels should be kept open yon should have at least one good passage day, and ia the case of children and young people, two a day is better. The best way to obtain such relief, and to thoroughly regulate the stomach, liver and bowels, is by the use of DR. CALO-

WUX'S SYKUP PEPSIN, the great laxative tonic It is not a temporary relief like salts and purgative waters, and it does not gripe, like tablets and pills.

Use it for coostipatioa, indigestion, sick headache, bilioosaeas. loss of appetite and sleep, drowsiness after eating, diarrhoea, "Summer Cocapiaint," gas or wind on the stomach, etc A bottle can be obtained of any druggist at 50centsor $1.00.
