Remarkable Report Under Inebriate Act Has Just Been Put on File. IS MUCH LESS DRINKING
At Local Theaters
NOTICED AMONG THE WORKING CLASS, BUT THE HABITUAL DRUNKARD HAS PRACTICALLY NOT BEEN AFFECTED.
Empire Stock Co. Abounding in comedy and exciting
climaxes, is "On the Frontier," which
the Empire Stock company will play
tonight for the close of their week's engagement at the Gennett theater.
'(Special Cabin from the International News Service.) London, March 2. The insufficiency of the law in dealing with the habitual and irreformable drunkard is the keynote of a remarkable report on the working of the Inebriate Act by
Mr. R. Welsh Branthwalte, the chief
Inspector. Two propositions of vital
importance to social reformers are laid
down by him as follows:
Although there has been a great
change in the direction of sobriety in
general habits of the people, the habitual drunkard is practically unaffected. Although the various Inebriates' Acts conferred certain powers on the
courts, further powers are needed to
grapple effectively with the evil.
"Those of us who have occasion to mix with the workers of today in busy
centers," says Mr. Branthwalte, "can not fail to observe the improvement in
the general drinking habits of the na
tion, as evidenced by the substitution
of unlicensed eating houses for licens
ed ones, and by the frequent absence
of intoxicating liquors from tables In
licensed restaurants and clubs. Treating Less Common.
"Drunkenness in private life is now
anathema, and the man who can not
cumrui Ullliseii ueuumts mure ur iraa an outcast from society. 'Treating' as
an adjunct to commercial transactions, is less prevalent than it used to be, and many minor inducements to excessive drinking have fallen into disrepute. "But notwithstanding this acknowledgment improvement in the general drinking habits of the nation, it Is by no means clear that any real advance has been made towards the suppression of habitual drunkenness the form of drunkenness that gave rise to temperance work, the form that causes all the real misery and matters most. "In times gone by the habitual inebriate was constantly in evidence in the streets, in public houses, and in private life. He was allowed freedom to roam about and display his peculiarity, being treated with the same tolerance as the village idiot or. harmless lunatic; when he became too great a nuisance he was put still more in evidence by public chastisement In pillory or stocks. In other words, every drunkard was then known and seen. 4 Fate of Drunkards. "Today , the habitual drunkard in a well-to-do private family is relegated to the skeleton cupboard, and prevented, so far as possible, from publicly exhibiting his failing. Pauper drunkards hide themselves in workhouses, shelters,. or charitable colonies, the only places where they can get food, or, when they become sufficiently insane, are immured in asylums.
"The' man who appears drunk in a
public house, drunk and disorderly in the street, or who commits a crimi
nal offence through drunkenness, is hurried to the police cell; ultimately to prison. , As a consequence of all this, the-ordinary individual sees little or nothing of the habitual drunkard of today, and is apt to believe that few exist." Mr. Branthwalte makes an elaborate analysis of the work done under the Inebriate Acts, and the conclusion he comes to is that although much valu- - able work has been done under them, the control they give is still insufficient. Mr. Branthwalte urges emphatically the necessity for putting into practice the opinions expressed by the Departmental Committee of 1908, that the detention of the confirmed inebriate is justifiable and necessary, apart from all questions of reformation.

It has become pretty apparent that the differences between Governor Marshall and attorney general Bingham to regard to the French Lick case
are to become a campaign issue in the
coming campaign, the attorney gener
al has set forth his reasons for pursuing the case. The Governor, it will be recalled, said that it was a waste
of money to pursue the case as no great principle of law was at stake and that even if the French Lick Springs Hotel Co. were ousted it would be easy enough to reorganize another company with Thomas Taggart at its head. But Attorney General Bingham declares that there is an important principle of Jaw at stake and it is likely that the attorney general's opinion on this case will be pretty well aired
during the coming campaign. The principle of law involved, the attorney general, sets forth, is whether or not the attorney general acting for the state has the right to go into any county and apply for a change of venue. One of the contentions that has long been made is that in order to properly enforce the law it is necessary sometimes to remove litigation from its local environments. Supreme Court Action. When the case was filed, it was filed by the state on the relation of
the prosecuting attorney. Later the supreme court upheld the contention that the prosecuting attorney of Orange county was the proper relator. Since the county prosecutor is the proper relator, the Governor contends that only such proper relator could
file an application for a change of
venue from the county or from the trial judge. In the French Lick case Prosecutor Huston of Orange county refused to-file an application for change of venue and the attorney gen
eral filed the application.
But the application of the attorney
general was overruled and now the attorney general says that in a vital case of 'this kind where the enforce
ment of one of the laws of the state is at stake, the attorney general in the event of failure of the prosecuting attorney to do so should have a right to file an application for a change of
venue. He says that this question is
involved in his appeal of the case to the supreme court and that he believes it is worth while to make a test of the matter.
Already the charge is being made
that Governor Marshall Is not con
sistent in his contention that it is not worth while to appeal the French Lick
case to the supreme court. It is
pointed out that about the time Governor Marshall took office he asked
for a law which would give him the
power to remove an elective officer for cause and an appointive officer
without cause. The object which it
was generally supposed that he had

How Victor Hugo Workqd. Victor Hugo always wrote standing at a high desk especially constructed for him, throwing off sheet after sheet as fast as he filled it till he would be quite snowed up in leaves of foolscap. He often rose in the middle of the night to note down an idea or a verse. I5e got op for the day usually at 6 o'clock and would devote from six to eight hours per diem to his work. He made but few corrections, his poems being thought out complete in his brain before he put pen to paper. It Is a well known fact that be indulged In

Lisbon, March 26. An interesting
discovery of buried treasure concealed
by buccaneers during the eighteenth century, is reported from Colmenar. A workman who was digging on the site
of a ruined castle near the town, un
earthed a number of old Spanish gold and silver coins. He- reported his dis
covery to his employer, and a system
atic search was made in the castle ru
ins. After laying bare the foundations of the castle, which date from the time
of the Moorish occupation, the explor
ers uncovered a dungeon which had been carefully sealed by the buccaneers. In this apartment, the walls
of which were of extraordinary thick- . ii
ness, were two rusted iron cnesis uu
ed with treasure.
The contents of the chests were care
fullv examined bv exDerts, who be
lieve that they form part of the booty
obtained from ships captured more than a hundred and fifty years ago. Old Spanish and Portuguese money formed the bulk of the treasure, but many gold
and silver ornaments, including vases
jewelry and ecclesiastical plate, were
also contained in the chests.
The discovery has caused great ex
citeruent throughout the district. The excavations continue under govern
ment supervision. No Such Place.

enforcement. . It is apparent that the purpose of the attorney general is to get a decision of the supreme court which will enable the state to work around a dilatory prosecuting attorney which is practically the same object the governor had in view in making his request for the new law. The governors contention is that the point of
the attorney general Is not well taken. It is evident that this dispute which has arisen between the governor and the attorney general is going to result in a lot of campaign talk and probably in some pretty nasty mudslinging. Plans of Fairbanks. While a list of campaign speakers for the coming campaign has hardly
been thought of as yet at republican state headquarters, there has been considerable speculation just the same. The hope is expressed by a great many republicans that former Vice President Fairbanks may be induced to make several speeches before the campaign has ended. Mr. Fairbanks has given no intimation as to his plans for the future but It is
generally presumed that he will remain in Indiana pretty steadily from jiow on. Mr. Fairbanks is a forceful and convincing speaker and it is generally conceded that he would be a valuable addition to the speaking force of the campaign. There is little doubt but that Senator Beveridge will be about the hardest worked orator of the campaigr. It is said that he intends to give a large amount of his personal atten
tion to the cause and that he pi ob-
ably will speak in every county of the state. The senator is a tireless worker and has the gift of working up
enthusiasm anions thot-e who listen
to him.
It is understood that there is to be much sneaking on the part of the republicans in the next campaign. Senator Beveridge believes that it is highly Important that the issues should be presented clearly to all of the state. Gulley to be Candidate. It was said today that : in all probability Otis Gulley of Danville would be a candidate for the republican nomination for secretary of state. Mr. Gulley it is said, has been considering the matter for some time and is expected to give his answer soon. Gulley for a long time has been prominent in the republican politics of the fifth district. Twice he has been a candidate for the congressional nomination in that district but has suffered defeat largely because lie lives in the east end of the district. This district is controlled pretty largely by the west end which has the city of Terre Haute. Mr. Gulley is an eloquent and tireless speaker and one of the characteristics of his congres
sional campaign was the vigor he put

friends that he would be a strong acquisition for the ticket. Is Having Troubles.
Governor Marshall is having trouble
of his own over the appointment of a fish and game commissioner. Although this appointment Is not to be made until next January, the governor is entertaining interested delega
tions frequently. Yesterday afternoon he was visited by a delegation of
Marion county men headed by E. J. Robison. formerly treasurer of this county and Charles A. Greathouse. who managed the campaign of Maj. G. V. Menzies of ML Vernon for United .States senator. The Marion county men wished to impress on the governor the importance of the appointment of a man as fish and game commissioner who lives in Indianapolis or will move to Indianapolis after he has been appointed. Their contention was that they wished a man who lived here because he would give the office some of his personal attention and would
not leave It entirely in the charge of
a deputy. It Is said also that there
is a business feature to the plea. The fish and game commissioner handles nearly $100,000 a year and if he lived in Indianapolis he probably would deposit this money in the Indianapolis banks. There are a number of applicants for the appointment, among them J. W. Kite of Indianapolis and George Schwartzkopt of Columbus.

In Preparing Plans for the
Conquest of Air and People Protest.
CAUSE OF APPREHENSION
(Special Cable from the international
isews Service.) London, March 2G. England's tardi
ness in the conquest of the air, is causing grave apprehension, among the leading financiers and statesmen of the empire. The possibility of her enor
mous and expensive fleet being rendered useless by a few aeroplanes, has made some of the leaders doubt the wisdom of expending so much capital for dreadnaughts. An organization called the Aerial League of the British Empire, and composed of the leading scientists and militarists of the country is conducting a campaign to secure funds to establish a National Institute of Aeronautics, where constructors and pilots of dirigibles and aeroplanes may be trained both, theoretically and practically, and where inventors may be encouraged and assisted. To this end $25,000 has already been subscribed. At a recent meeting held In London Sir John Knill, Lord Mayor of the city said: "Science Is getting almost too much

the founding of a National Institute of

dizziness, constipation and othsr stomach disorders. Some folks have tried so long to find relief from indigestion and Dyspepsia or an out-of-order stomach with the common every-day cures advertised that they have about made up their minds that they have something else wrong, or believe theirs is a case of nervousness, gastritis, catarrh of the stomach or cancer.

Your real trouble is, what you eat does net digest; instead, it ferments and sours, turns to acid, gas and stomach poison, which putrefy in the digestive tract and intestines, and, besides, poison the breath with nauseous odors.
