Decide to Go Before the Next Legislature With Their Demands.

SOLONS WILL HEAR THEM

vS THE THOUSAND ODD TOWNSHIP OFFICIALS REPRESENT GREAT POLITICAL STRENGTHASK FOR MORE PAY.

(Palladium Special) Indianapolis, Dec. 17. The next session of the legislature will be besieged by the township trustees of the Kta In thf effort to get some legis

lation which the trustees believe Hhould be enacted for their relief. This was decided on at the meeting of the Township Trustees association of the state, which closed in this city late yesterday afternoon. It was the largest convention ever held by the organization, more than 500 out of the 1016 trustees in the state being present. A special assault is to be made on the township advisory board law. An effort was made last winter to get this law repealed but it failed. But this time the trustees will go before the legislature in a solid body, and that means something, for every trustee in the state is a politician, and it is a question whether the members of the legislature can successfully withstand such an onslaught and take chances on making a dozen trustees in his county mad. It is claimed that the township advisory board is useless and that it ought to be abolished. They say it does no good to the township, and that it will be especially useless since the public accounting law has been put into effect. Want More Salary. There will be a demand for higher salaries for the trustees, and in this move it is said the trustees will have the support of Governor Marshall, on the ground that the trustee has many duties and that his position Is one of great responsibility, for which he should have adequate pay. The trustees will try to have the legislature do away with the office of county road superintendent, because they believe the same amount of money that is spent on that office can better be spent In some other way with better results on the roads. A lestfslatlve committee was appointed to prepare for this fight. The members are William Atkins, Evansville; Frank Krack, Vincennes; Charles Wing. New Albany; Gil Henderson. Franklin; W. S. Guard. Cory; Mandus E. Mason, Cambridge City; Henry Schroeder, Indianapolis; G. C. Shultz. Union City; W. W. Rose, Rossville; T. Gustifson, Chesterton; K. B. Sutton, Macy; II . E. Branning, Fort Wayne; A. J. Wiltrout, Warsaw. Decide on Love Feast. The republicans will decide tomorrow morning whether there will be a love feast this year or not. Fred Sims, acting chairman of the state committee, got in communication with Chairman James P. Goodrich by long

distance telephone yesterday, and Goodrich- told-him he would be in this t ity tomorrow morning to take up the matter. There is a robust objection in some quarters to holding a love feast, but many republicans believe one should be held. So it will not be known until after Goodrich arrives whether one will be held or not. The prohibitionists have decided to hold their next state convention at Kokomo. This is a new departure, as the conventions have heretofore been held in this city. Grace Methodist church has been chosen as the place for the convention, and it Is said that thirteen hundred delegates .will attend.

At Local Theaters

Rivaled Franklin. School Examiner Some of our greatest discoveries, my young friend, have been made by simple means. You have 11 beard the story of how Benjamin Franklin went out In the storm and caught the lightning. Prodigy Yes, and I heard you tell pa this morning that you caught thunder when you came home from the lodge last night.

Juvenile Wisdom. "What did people do before steel pens were invented?" asked the teacher. "The pinions of one goose were used to spread the opinions of another," answered the wise -boy at the pedal extremity of the class. Judge's Library.

Tim Murphy. There is no actor who needs less puffery than Tim Murphy. Which is, of course, the cynic's cue to ask if that is why he gets so much. He insures his welcome on each return by the delight he gave on each preceding visit., His public do not take him at second hand on a remote or foreign reputation, unhappily so ften a skilfully manipulated spurious article, but at their own valuation after intimate acquaintance. By giving wholesome American plays of a high artistic character and interpreting them in his sincere, quaint and whimsical manner, he has made himself nearer and dearer to the great heart of the people than any other actor since Jefferson, Russell and Raymond left him alone as the typical native American comedian. Like the great French actor, Coquelin, he is master of the founts of tears as well as smiles, for in the midst of an evening with Tim Murphy he is sure to exhibit that mastery over the various emotions of an audience which is the inalienable mark of an artist. As he is this year playing several plays of his celebrated repertoire he is accompanied by the largest supporting company he has ever taken on tour. At the head is Miss Dorothy Sherrod whose grace and charm have distinguished Mr. Murphy's productions for several years. The genial comedian will be seen at the Gennett theater tonight, appearing in "Cupid and the Dollar,"

his new play.

At the Murray. Many bills have played at the Murray this season, but there has been none that have been as wejl balanced

and as complete as the bill this week. Bunth and Rudd head the bill with a combination of dancing, juggling, magic and comedy. Their act is something new in this city and also on the vaudeville stage. Although the two men have a variety of entertainment, they are stars in each. They have been greeted with much applause at every performance and it is very evident that the people are pleased with their act. Miss Virginia Goodwin and Harry North are also receiving their share of the popularity. They are well known in this city as they have appeared here several times with the North Brothers Stock Co. Jeanette Dupree is making her hit with her novel act. She doesn't sing to amount to anything, nor dance, nor turn hand-springs. She just simply entertains the audience by acting at home on the stage and bringing the relation of the listeners and actor closer together. She has the power of making the audience join her in the entertainment. Nick and Lydia Russell, have a little sketch entitled "The Professor and the Substitute," which Is very good. The vocal and whistling solos of Miss Russell are very pleasing, while the several selections of trick piano play ing by Nick Russell are very clever.

New Castle, Ind., Dec. 17. The old board of trustees of the "town of New Castle" has had an expert go over the records and prepare an inventory of the property owned by the town, so that when Mayor-elect Mark

K. 1'orkner and the new council of

the new "city of New Castle" take charge, they will know exactly what collateral the city has. The inventory

was made by W. H. Moore, an export accountant of Mooreland. Every little thing the town owns was itemized, from a currycomb and brush in the stable of the fire department, to the city hall and water works and electric light plant, and the valuation of each at the present time was given. Among some of the items in the inventory are the following with their valuations: City hall and real estatj $14,290; fire department equipment, $6,125; municipal water plant, $161,460; municipal electric light plant, $10,625; real estate at pumping station, $3,000; tables, chairs, maps, safe, etc., in council room, $297; combination hose and chemical wagon, $1,850; three stoves, $15; two thousand feet of fire hose, $1,500; two dozen bottles of acid, $1; one dump cart, $5; three pairs of rubber boots, $15; five beds, springs and mattresses, $60; electrical appliances and fire alarm system, $1,500; and hay forks, brushes and blankets, $5. Wet Part of the Assets. In the waterworks department aie listed buildings at $7,000; a two million gallon pump and a 2,500,000 gallon pump at $7,900; two boilers and stacks, $6,000; three reservoirs, $10,350; three air compressors, $4,250; water mains. $100,000; fire plugs, $3. 000; taps and services, $10,000; water wells, $1,500; well and water meter connections, $4,S00; coal, $1,200; and other items totaling about $162,000. In the street department is listed a steam roller at $1,000, which has been a jest among the citizens for the last five years, but which did good work when loaned to the city of Richmond last summer; a street sweeper at $100, etc. The two horses of the fire department, Billy, named after Bryan, and Teddy, named after Roosevelt, are listed at $400. The electric light plant Is listed at $10,625, which includes an engine at $3,000, dynamos at $1,200, poles and lines at $3,000, and other smaller items. The town owns Southmound cemetery, comprising about thirty acres, southwest of the city, but this is not appraised in the report, as the money realized from the sale of lots goes into a maintenance fund and it takes all to pay the expenses. To be Sworn in Next Tuesday. Mayor-elect Forkner and the council will be sworn in at the regular meet

ing of the council next Tuesday evening, and the present council, elected under a town form of government, will

turn over the town's property as list

ed. An agreement to swear in the new city officers was reached yesterday, and Clerk Mahin notified the successful candidates to present themsel

ves to qualify. It had been stated that James L. Watkins, defeated candidate for mayor, who is contesting the election and seeking a recount of the ballots, would file an injunction suit to prevent Forkner and the other elected officers from taking their seats, but it is not believed such a suit will materialize.

TIZ acts at once and makes tired

aching, swollen feet remarkably fresh

and sore proof.

It's the sure remedy, you know, for everything that gets the matter with your feet. It's for sore feet and for sweaty, bad-smelling feet, and for corns, callouses and bunions, too, "For years I have been troubled with sore and tender feet; suffered intense pains. Have had the assistance of physicians without relief. I bought a box of TIZ, which worked a perfect cure, as it has with a great many of my friends. I would not be without it. All it requires is to be known to be universally used." A. F. Dreutzer, Chicago. TIZ is not a powder. Powders and other foot remedies clog up the pores. TIZ draws out all poisonous exudations which bring on soreness of the feet, and Is the only remedy that does. TIZ cleans out every pore and glorifies the feet your feet. You'll never limp again or draw up your face in pain, and you'll forget about your corns, bunions and callouses. You'll feel like a new person. TIZ is for sale at all druggists, 25 cents per box, or it will be sent you direct, if you wish, from Walter Luther Dodge & Co., Dept. 476, Dodge Bldg., Chicago, 111.

PROGRAM A SPLENDID ONE

T QDITG More thought is being given to the Stomach today than to any other organ. Dieting and a hundred other things are suggested, but the fact remains that we have to ear and that in the main we are eating the same food today that has been eaten for hundreds of years. The point, then, is to find a way of remedying an evil when we find it There comes a time In the lives of J of us when a laxative Is necessary, only with some this requirement occurs more frequently than with others. But whether the occasion Is frequent or rare It Is Important that you take a simple, natural remedy. The farther you art away from the man-made tablet or pin and the salty purgative water the better. Tou want something that combine the virtues of a. laxative and tonic, something that is sure in its effect and yet pleasant to the taste, a remedy con tain lax earth-grown vegetables and plants. Such is Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, now for nearly a quarter of a century a recognised Household friend in thousands of homes. The world affords no better cure for constipation and live trouble, for In-sUg-sstlon and sour stomach, for sick

mm

SglFlTQO

headache and flatulency than this remedy. But in addition to Its laxative value it contains ingredients that have a tonic action in strengthening' and invigorating the muscles of the stomach and bowels. That is what the majority need a tonic laxative. But so there may be no doubt about what it will do in your case. Dr. CaJdwell will gladly send you a sample bottle free of charge upon receipt of your name and address. Then, if it pleases you. you can buy it of your druggist at fifty cents or one dollar a bottle. Just as thousands of others are doing. J. K. Punderburg. Sansaba, Tex., not only uses it with good success himself, but gives it to his children, for owing to its mildness and agreeable taste there is no better laxative for children. S. P. Mead. Waucoma, la., has also found It a good family remedy. Dr. Caldwell personally win be pleased to give you any medical advice you may desire for yourself or family pertaining to the stomach, liver or bowels absolutely free of charge. Explain your case in a letter and he will reply to you In detail. For the free sample simply send your name and address on a postal card or otherwise. Tor either request the doctor's address la Dr. W. B. Caldwell. K.5U4 Caldwell building. Monticello. 111.

Why We Laugh. Laughter seems to be a specialized form of either the scream of a startled or Injured animal or the cry of triumph common to many beasts of prey. In children the cry of terror and the shout of laughter often shade iato each other, and the young child escaping from pursuit will scream with laughter or fear, according to bis chances of escape. Some unexpected event that causes slight alarm short of actual terror is the commonest cause of children's laughter, bnt in adults some sudden event that gives a sensation of triumph over others has much more Influence. Really clever Jokes seldom cause laughter, and it has been pointed out that a man chasing bis

hat will produce laughter far more

hearty in character than the best efforts of the cleverest wit. The sight of ill fortune in another causes by contrast a feeling of triumph in ourselves. The ticklish parts of the body

are for the most part the sites of Im

portant blood vessels, and the laughter

produced In children by tickling Is

even mora closely allied to the cry of

pain. The Cuckoo. Where does the cuckoo lay Its eggs? What Is its staple diet? What course does It take In its autumn migration when It returns to its African haunts? These are questions that await satisfactory answers. Until it was found that the cuckoo laid its egg on the

ground and subsequently carried it in Its bill to a neighboring nest it was supposed that the bird fed largely on the eggs of smaller birds. This fallacy has been disproved. Probably in the whole range of British birds there is no other that can boast such curious domestic traits as the cuckoo. It makes no nest, does not attend to Incubation duties and rears no young and apparently never sees the bird that is batched from the egg that it surreptitiously places in the nest of some smaller bird.

ASK L H. FIHE Parisian Sage, the Hair Grower, Is Now Sold in America on Money Back Plan. It's a mighty good thing for the women of America that Parisian Sage can now be obtained in every town of consequence. No preparation for the hair has done so much to stop falling hair and eradiate dandruff and make women's hair beautiful as Parisian Sage. Parisian Sage is the only certain destroyer of the dandruff microbe which is the cause of 97 per cent of hair troubles. These pernicious, persistent and destructive little devils thrive on the ordinary hair tonics. Parisian Sage is such an extraordinary and quick acting rejuvenator that L. H. Fihe, who is the agent in Rich-

' mond, guarantees It to cure dandruff

two weeks or money back. Parisian Sage is most daintily perfumed, it is an ideal preparation, not

t sticky or greasy.

It is a magnificent dressing for women who desire luxuriant, lustrous hair that compels admiration. And a large bottle of Parisian Sage costs only SO cents at L U Fine's and at leading druggists all over America. The girl with the Auburn hair is on every package. Made in America by Giroux Mfg. Co.. Buffalo, X. Y.. who fill mail orders, all charges prepaid.

(American News Service) Boston, Dec. 17. One of the most interesting programs relating to chemical science that has ever been scheduled, is announced for the forty-first meeting of the American Chemical society, to be held in this city from December '21 to 31. This meeting will not be only of interest to those who are connected with the study of chemicals, but to the general public, especially farmers. At the meeting, chemists of great repute will give addresses pertaining to chemicals existing in all forms. The first important session will be on the second day. Thursday, Dec. when the section of Chemical Education will devote its time to special problems of secondary school chemistry. On Wednesday, Dec. iiO. a general

meeting of the whole society will be held at Harvard University. Mr. T. W. Richards will give an address on "Methods employed in Precise Chemical Investigations." The session will close with a lecture by Mr. Louis Lahenberg. The general business of the society will be transacted on Thursday. On Friday many papers will be read and discussed. This session is highly interesting to agriculturists and feed experts as the address scheduled will pertain to the existence and non-existence of chemicals in food and soil, the effect of these chemicals on the food and soil and the effect containing different chemicals has when eaten.
