BOSS STATES THAT THEY HAVE ROLLED OUT THE 8KID8 FOR HIM BEFORE, BUT THEY HAD NEVER BEEN USED.

(Palladium Special) Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 4. Somebody remarked to Tom Taggart the other day that it looked as if the new deal faction of the democratic party had the skids ready to put under him and slide him out of the control of the party in this state. "Well," replied Taggart, "they have brought those things out of the shed a good many times for me, but they have never used them yet. I don't propose to be thrown out unless I want to." Challenge Is Made. So there is the challenge thrown down to the element, led by Governo'" Marshall, which hopes to reorganize the democratic state committee and the state organization along lines that will be different from those that have prevailed In the past. Some time ago the story was told that Taggart had announced that he would retire from active politics in this state and devote all of his time to his vast business interests. It is probably true that he did make this statement, but, as has been explained in this correspondence, it does not necessarily mean that Taggart is going to take his hand entirely off of the throttle that controls the democratic locomotive. Taggart is a foxy politician, and it is remembered that he has on several occasions, declared his Intention of getting out of politics. It is remembered also, that on each of these occasions the statement was made when Taggart had a big fight on hand. Then when the fight was over Taggart had won and was bigger than ever in his party and more strongly intrenched as the boss. Color to the Theory. It is the prediction of many that this is what he will do this time, if he has been correctly quoted in his statement that he will retire. The remark which he made the other day, as quoted above gives color to this theory. If it ever comes to a point where Taggart and Marshall engage in a genuine fight for control of the party machinery in this state, it will mean the clash of two clever politicians. Everyuoay kouwb mm xuggaii. in t guuu politician. Governor Marshall disclaims any pretensions at being a politician in any sense of the word. He says he does not know a thing about politics. But the rest of the people are of a dif ferent opinion. They regard him as a past master at the political game One man said the other day Marshall In politics was like a beginner who was learning to play euchre. "You know, when you try to teach some one how to play the game he always beats you," the man remarked. 'And that is the way with Marshall. Ha ,has never been licked yet. Against Boss Rule. Governor Marshall has again come out "flat footed" against boss rule in a party. A few days ago he received a letter from a committee of Eastern democrats who contemplate calling a conference of party leaders from all over the country to decide on a plan of campaign for next year. It is proposed at this meeting to discuss the Issues that are to be raised and to plan for the organization of the party in the nation. , Governor Marshall has AFTER FOURYEARS OFMSERY Cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Baltimore, Md. "For four years my life was a misery to me. I suffered i from lrrejru Un ties, terrible dragging sensations, extreme nervous, ness, and that all gone feeling in my stomach. I had given up hope of ever being well when I began to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Then I felt as though new life had been riven me, and I am recommending it to all my friends." Mrs. W. S. Ford, 1888 Lansdowne St., Baltimore, Md. The most successful remedy in this country for the cure of all forms of female complaints is Lydia . Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. It has stood the test of years and today is more widely and successfully used than any other female remedy. It has cured thousands of women who have been troubled with displacements, inflammatios, ulceration, fibroid tumors, irregularities, periodic pains, backache, that bearing-down feeling, flatulency. Indigestion, and nervous prostration, after all other means had failed. If you are suffering from any of these ailments, dont give up hope until you hare given Lydia E.

He believes, he says, that the people themselves, and not the leaders or the bosses should decide on the issues and on the plan of campaign. Ths governor will not attend the conference if one is held, and will not have anything to do with the proposition in any form. FELT HATS. Evolution of the Fluffy Fur Into the Finished Product. It Is an interesting matter to follow stage by stage the evolution of s little pile of soft fluffy rabbit fur into the finished hat, whether a light colored crush or a raven black bard bat of the derby shape. The general Idea about such a bat is that it Is cut and made or molded out of a sheet of felt, so that amazement comes when one is shown bales and heaps of rabbit fur and is told that it is out of this that hats are made. Felt indeed is not so much a primary material, but felting is the process by which wool, fur or hair is matted together and formed into a close fabric. For hats rabbit fur is the material used. The nrst step in its treatment is the thorough cleansing of the close clipped fur in a machine, which winnows It of all dirt or foreign matter and leaves it in a soft, fluffy condition resembling tit. finest and lightest down. Anything less resembling a hat It is impossible to imagine. But the marvelous ingenuity of the next process accomplishes an almost magical change. In the central box of a hopper-like machine a big copper cone revolves. From above the soft, fluffy Jur is fed down in a shower, which clings like gray snow on the revolving cone, while jets of water and steam spray on the fur mat and plaster It into a complete covering. In a minute or two the cone is covered to the depth of one-eighth of an inch with this matter and saturated fur, which is oow become felt. The machine is stopped, the cone is taken out. and the workman dexterously peels off the felt covering. Being built up on the cone, it is also cone shaped and looks like a gigantic sugar loaf bag. It Is the embryo bat. In this first state it is a soft, wet felt cone, measuring 24 by 30 inches. Rolled up, it enters upon a series of processes and is shrunk together so that it measures 10 by 14 Inches. Tbe hat now a browny-gray felt cone, like a clown's cap. is smoothed by being placed against rapidly revolving sandpaper. It is stiffened by being dipped In shellac, dyed black by immersion In a vat and then passes on to be shaped. Warm water gives tbe felt pliability again, and tbe man pulling out or "esrsing" tbe apex of tbe cone draws and smooths It down to a wooden block of tbe exact shape and size the bat is required to be. As It dries it takes Its destined shape and firmness as regards the crown, while the brim is still fiat and un trimmed. Tbe body of the hat is now practically finished. Then comes the shaping of tbe brim, which is worked down and bent over a wooden frame of the exact curl and Hoe of tbe ordained design. Each size and style of hat has its own frame, as it has also its iron mold, wood block, etc, and every alteration In a season's styles and sbapes calls for an entirely new set of molds.

Whitewater Valley was Found By Quaker "Cooks and Peary s"

In the current number of the American Friend, Dr, Rufus M. Jones, the editor, who was in this city the past two weeks, has an editorial on Whitewater Monthly Meeting which is as follows: Whitewater Monthly Meeting (Richmond, Indiana) has arrived at the dignity of being a hundred years old. So many anniversaries abound this year that the wayfaring man is in some danger of forgetting the ones that are really momentous the ones which touch most vitally the spiritual concerns of the race; and it seems, therefore, auite worth while for a moment to swing away from the din and jubilee over the exploration of the Hudson River, and the building of the first steamboat, and the hurrah over the commercial value of Alaska, now our possession for forty-two years, to consider the establishment of a meeting which has played a great part in the work of spiritualizing the great West. It was in the spring of 1806 that David Hoover and four others all immigrants from North Carolina first pushed through the woods from Ohio and found the Whitewater country. As he told the story himself: "We took a section line some eight or ten miles north of Dayton, and traced Jit a distance of more than 30 miles, through an unbroken forest. It was the last of February or the first of March when I first saw Whitewater. On my return to my father's, I informed him that I thought I had found the country we had been in search of. Spring water, timber and building j rock appeared to be abundant, and the face of the country looked delightful. In about three weeks after this my father, with several others, accompanied me to this 'land of promise.' A large succession of Quaker immigrants from the Carolinas followed these first pioneers, and three years later in 1809 a monthly meeting was established in this "land of promise," which David Hoover claims to have discovered. It was the parent meeting of Indiana the hive from which has come, in the century, a very great swarm of spiritual bees. It is true, of course, that many pioneer Quaker settlements were formed almost simultaneously in eastern Indiana, and it cannot be claimed that all the spiritual sweetness which abounds in the 6tate, and the neighboring states. Is an overflow from Whitewater! There were other hives which swarmed as well as this one. But this meeting does at least have a valid claim of having made first the "farthest west" for Quakerism, and it is cause Tor congratulation that so many other Quaker Pearys and Cooks they were really Morrises and Truebloods. Whites and Coxes, Xewbys and Cosands were almost at the same time maktng their rival "farthest wests." The more celebrations of spiritual conquests the better. The point for emphasis just now is that a hundred years ago this autumn Friends met in the beautiful valley of the Whitewater and held the first monthly meeting ever held on Indiana soil. They were planting there a seed of spiritual religion which to them was precious, and which they believed would grow and flourish. It was precious, and it has grown. Those pioneers believed profoundly that the greatest thing in a man's life was his inward connection and relation with God. This relation raised man, otherwise so puny in his powers, to a level

of great importance in their eyes. He might live in a log hut, but he was himself a temple of the living God. He might toil all day removing stumps, but he could, if he would, hear God's voice in the deeps of his soul. That was their faith, and on that they staked their lives. Because they believed that, they insisted on the importance of educating everybody since the more a person's powers are expanded, the better instrument he becomes for the God who speaks through him and uses him. Thus, by their meeting house, where they gathered to listen for God's word, they built the school-house, where the children could have their powers expanded. The hive swarmed and swarmed again each group of torch-bearers lighted more torches until the meetings born from this first one dot the state and the states beyond. It was a momentous beginning when the clerk read his opening minute a hundred years ago, and the end of the movement is not in sight. R. M. J.

KIDNEY DISORDERS Symptoms and Home Treatment Gaut the celebrated German specialist, asserts that seven-tenths of the feeble-minded and insane are the vic tims of kidney diseases. Nervousness, excitability, restlessness, melancholia, pains in the back and head, neuralgia and rheumatic pains, fevers, chills, scanty urine, highly colored and acid urine, burning pains, fullness and soreness in the region of the bladder, all indicate that the kidneys are affected and weak ened, needing tonic treatment The very best physician should be consulted at once, or let the following simple, inexpensive, but reliable pre scription be used for several weeks: Mix one-half ounce fluid extract Buchu. with one ounce compound fluid Balm wort and two ounces com pound syrup Sarsaparilla. Then take a teaspoonful after each meal and one at retiring, drinking plenty of good, pure water between meals. This mixture makes a splendid tonic and blood purifier. Unappreciated.

918 MAIN STREET Amusements "A Woman of Mystery-" The metropolitan cities of the Unit ed States get performances in their theaters that the smaller cities cannot support on account of the enormous expense, such as great productions with 200 people on the stage, which possibly Is tie only reason that the production is great. Richard Mansfield when starring in "Cyrano de Bergerac" of "Henry V." could not afford to play the smaller cities but last season in "Beaucaire" it was possible for him to do so because he merely carried a limited number of fine artists in his support; still this play was just as attractive in metro politan cities as one of his great-num-berof-people productions. Other art ists play large cities that can afford to play smaller cities also, for instance, Mgrs. Walters Way make it possible for Miss Courtenay Morgan to play them because "A Woman of Mystery" can be played by a moderately small company. It is hoped that the citizens of Richmond will give credit to our local manager for bring ing such attractions to our city thereby encouraging more artists of this quality to come. Murray Theater. The new Murray Theater will not open today as it has been impossible to complete the new building in order to present the opening bill at this date. It will, however, be formally opened on Oct. 11th, and patrons are assured of the pleasure of witnessing an excellent bill of high class vaudeville at that time.
