"SPRING FEVER" PATIENTS MANY MEN GIVE UP THEIR POSITIONS BECAU8E OF WARM WEATHER AND THEIR PLACES ARE IMMEDIATELY FILLED.

Indianapolis, March 19. Industrial conditions in Indiana are beginning to brighten up according to Carle E. Morton, clerk in the state bureau of statistics, who has charge of the employment agency conducted by the statehouse. "We hope to place many men from now on," he said. "It is getting warmer now and that means that here are many men now working who will soon give up their positions. There are a great number of young unmarried men without home attachments, who work steadily all winter and then get the spring fever with the first signs of warm weather. "Work? Why should I work now I can sleep under the trees In this weather. But if it's cold tomorrow and you have something open, I'll take a job." "That is the talk that one man gave mo the other ' week on a warm sunny day. And my experience has . been that there are fewer applicants on days when It is comfortable outside than on the days when it feels more comfortable to be under shelter. A rainy day, or one when it snows drives many an applicant to the employment bureau. Perhaps we arrange it for him. to try a position the next day. If it is is another cold, disagreeable day he will probably show up, but if the weather changes the betting lies the other way. "Of course this applies only to a limited number of men the kind that one might put in the tramp class. There are dozens of hard working laborers who have been thrown out of a job by some accident or economical move on the part of his employers and wants work, no matter what tempting conditions invite him to loaf In the sun. They may have had the same roving spirit in younger days, but the thought of their families holds them to the grind and the other men are ready to shirk. "No matter what job you offer some men they find objection to it. It Is strange, but true, nevertheless, that some down-and-outers are more particular in picking jobs than John D. Rockefeller would be. With, the In crease of work that usually takes place in the automobile and other factories about here, we should soon have work for every man who honestly desires it." PILES CURED IN 6 TO 14 DAYS PAZO OINTMENT is guaranteed to cure any case of Itching, filind, Bleed ing or Protruding Piles in 6 to 14 days or money refunded. 60cTHE EYE OF kU ARTIST. A Cat Where It Was Mere Reliable Than a Sailer's Optic Mr. N. Chevalier, the well known artist who accompanied the late Duke of Edinburgh on many of his travels, was once going from Dunedin to Lyttelton. New Zealand, by steamer. Anx ious to catch the earliest glimpse of the const, he went on deck at dawn and was alarmed to see that the ves sel was heading straight on to the land. Calling the officer's attention to the fact, he was told that it was only a fog bank. The artist maintained his point, but the second officer looked and confirmed his mate. The artist then said, "Well, gentle men, I will back my artist's eye against your sailor's eye, and I say that what you mistake for a fog bank is a low range of hills, and there is a range of mountains appearing above them." But he was only laughed at until the captain, coming on deck, found In the growing light that the artist was right and the seamen wrong. The vessel was out of its course, and there was only just time to avert disaster. The helmsman was dismissed in disgrace and the course given to a new steersman, but the vessel's head still pointed j landward the compass was all wrong. The cause was discovered later. A commercial traveler had brought a box of magnets on board and deposited them In a stern cabin, causing what might have been a fatal deflection of the compass. . To return to the question of interpretation, the artist was dealing with the appearances which his eye was trained to see and his mind to Interpret. A speck on the horizon might have remained a mere speck to him long after the sailors had Interpreted the speck into a vessel of definite rig. There can be little doubt that the trained eye is accompanied by a sort of mental seeing an Instinct outrun : nlng optics. Duly Cautious. "He says he courts the fullest investigation possible.

SALIBRAN'S CAPTIVITY A Romantic Incident In the Career of the Great Singer. The following incident is told of Mme. Mallbran, whose voice once upon a time excited the most unromantic to folly. She was resting in her dressing room at the theater after singing in the part of Desdemona, her passionate soul still quivering with the emotion of the part and tbe tears and applause of her listeners. A person entered and begged Her to go to her mother, who had been taken ill. A carriage, not her own, was at the door. She was whirled through the streets and led, much to her surprise and fear. Into a strange house and to an excellent boudoir, hung and carpeted with rose colored silk. Here the beautiful songstress was left alone after being assured by her attendants that her mother was well, that the message was a subterfuge and that her captivity would last until she sang something. On a low seat sat a lyre such as that which thrilled in Malibran's fingers as she sang Desdemona's touching song. At first she determined to resist, but after a short time her mind reverted to the evening, and almost unconsciously she took up the instrument and sang the "Romance de Saule." As she concluded sounds of enthusiastic applause and trembling accents of delight came to her through the silk hangings, and she was then conducted by liveried servants to her carriage and to her home. The next morning she found on her table a casket containing a magnifl cent pair of earrings, and Inside the cover, written in diamonds, was the word "Merci." But the event remained a mystery to her forever. What Bothered Her. "Some women are very selfish," said a woman speaker at a banquet. "They remind me of the woman who visited a fortune teller. "'Lady,' said the fortune teller, shuffling tbe cards, 'fate decrees that you will visit foreign lands. You will mingle In the court life of kings and queens. Conquering all rivals, you will marry the man of your choice, a talL dark, handsome gent of distinguished ancestry in fact, a peer of the realm.' "Will he be young T Tes; young and rich. "The visitor in her excitement clutched the seer's arm. " 'But how,' she cried eagerly 'how am I to get rid of my present husband ?" Goaded. Saving became a passion with tbe man and the woman. No privation was too great If so by it they might add to their accumulations. And they labored jointly. The woman's sacrifice was in every respect equal to that of the man. But when they had amassed $10,000 the man, because be had the power, took the money and purchased with it not the automobile which he had led his faithful wife to expect, but a home. "Brute!" she cried, and when next a- mob of suffragettes came that way she joined them. Who could blame her? Puck. A Light Eatar. "Look here!" exclaimed tbe landlady, who had agreed to board and lodge a nan at reduced rates. "You told me you were a light eater." "So I am, ma'am," replied the board er.

Church Choir Girl Gave Card Party, and Is Asked to Resign

Newburg, N. Y., March 19. All Newburg showered congratulations on Miss Katherine Seeger the young woman who refused to stop playing cards on the command of Rev. Dr. Frank A. Stoddard, pastor of the Moulton street Baptist church when the command was enforced by the ultimatum of dismissal from the church choir. "Until this moment," she said, "I have said absolutely nothing about the affair. I preferred to let the other side do the talking. I was not ashamed of anything, but I simply avoided discussion. Makes an Explanation. "But now that so many people have heard the tale and have asked me for an explanation I feel that the time is come when it is best for me to make a public one. And first I want to say that I feel no hostility toward Mr. Stoddard; he has acted as he feels he ought. I have not withdrawn from his church not even withdrawn my attendance. We simply have a difference of opinion, that is all. "What happened to bring it about was this: About four weeks ago I wanted to enteVtain a number of my girl friends who belong to a bowling club with me. There are just sixteen of us, and I thought it would be jolly to have a little card party. I have always played cards and see no harm in SAVE GIRL BABIES Alaska Natives Either Strangled or Threw Girl Babies into the Snow. BOYS ARE WELL NOURISHED Seattle, March 19. Except for the heroic efforts of Mrs. Thomas NoyeB, of Nome, Alaska, wife of the principal owner of the greatest placer project on Kotzebue sound, the natives of the far northland today might be. continuing the old tribal custom of weeding out female infants. Mr. and Mrs. NoyeB and their nine-year-old daughter Bonnie, who was bore far up in the arctic circle, are in Seattle on their way to California. "When we first went to the north in 1901," said Mrs. Noyes last night, "conditions were terrible. If a son was born, all was well, but if a daughter, the mother might continue the fight for existence of both herself and her baby, but eventually she would be forced to bow to the inevitable and sacrifice the life of the infant. Strangled the Girl. "The last case I heard of was most heartrending," continued Mrs. Noyes. The mother had borne twins. One was a boy and the other was a girl. What followed she innocently told me afterward. The boy was nurtured carefully but the woman said she strangled the little girl regularly, for the poor little unfortunate fought hard for life and persisted in crying when thrown out into the snow." With other women of Nome and the far north whom Mrs. Noyes enlisted in the fight as fast as she could make their acquaintance, she Journeyed hundreds of miles behind dog teams, slept alone in the open and visited the igloos of a hundred sections. A sharp look out was kept on the Indians about the settlements until one after another girl babies were rescued from extermination and the parents who had cast the infants out were coaxed, cajoled or by threats forced into compliance with the code of civilization. Willing to Aaaiat. There was a worthy Irish member of parliament who was so generous that a request for financial assistance was never refused. But his checks had one little drawback they were never honored. The shortcoming naturally In time became known, but It did not affect his popularity. A visitor to the district, hearing of the member's peculiarity, asked a leading politician how It was that public faith In tbe member was not shaken. "Why. sure, it Is because be shows his willingness to assist but for lack of funds." was the reply. r" jf 1 frTSU sff t SWn JrlKjlJ VUft W 1 A Jr gar afacsar if A sjnn Agtt "a '.l Do as As i

WOMAN KNOWS HOW Thief Steals Money and She Takes It Back Again in a Thrilling Manner. FAINTS; GIVES EXPERIENCE Indianapolis, March 19. "How does it feel to have a hand to hand encoun ter with a highwayman?" was asked of Mrs. William Moore, the woman who proved herself a heroine by struggling with a highwayman until she had recovered $5 of the money the thief had taken from her husband. Mrs. Moore says it was done so quickly she hardly knows how she did feel. When she saw the highwayman run she fainted and did not recover until the police rived. "I had always thought," said Mrs. Moore, who was seen today at her home, 43 N. Pine street today, "that should I encounter a highwayman or a burglar I would be so frightened I could do nothing to protect myself. Yet when I saw the man strike my hus band and saw him fall in the street and the highwayman going through his pockets, before I knew what I was doing, I was struggling with the man and succeeded in getting back part of the money.

If the fur bearing animals in Southern Indiana could talk they would doubtless be glad to give the press a statement about the high cost of living. The In crease in prices is having its effect with them because it is wiping them out of existence. Even the meek and lowly muskrat, passed by in former years, is now eagerly sougni oy me trappers, and the price of its pelt has doubled since last season. Tvrnl fur dealer aire making their ast shipments of the winter. The warm weather reduces the value of a fur bearing animal's coat and causes the trappers to put away their traps until another winter comes. When questioned, local dealers declared that they had bought more pelts this season than last. In spite of the fact that the number of fur bearing animals decreases from year to year. Last winter the pelt of a musk rat brought from 40 to 45 cents, when sold to a local dealer, but this winter pelts of the same quality are bringing the I an n an i-ont, XI Inlre . . f tht fiii-rler are using musk rat skins for much of the so-called mink.
