Indianapolis, Ind., May 20. The republican party of Indiana has passed through the tail of the comet and has

come out all right. This was the way

one member of the republican state

committee expressed it" at the meeting which was held at headquarters in this city yesterday afternoon and last night. And the remark was timely, for the

earth was supposed to have passed through the tail of Halley's comet within the preceding twenty-four hours and had come out without any dire results that had been predicted and feared by the superstitious and the weak kneed. Nine of the thirteen members of the state committee attended the meeting yesterday, the absentees being Edgar Durre of the First district; M. Bert Thurman of the Third district; James S. Culbert of the Eighth district, and Demas D. Bates of the Thirteenth. AH members of the state executive corn-

Musical Festival, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings of next week and a matinee Wednesday afternoon is progress

ing in a most satisfactory manner and

the present indications are that the event will be a financial as well as an

artistic success. Hundreds of people from neighboring . towns will attend one or more of the recitals. This festival Is attracting the attention of musicians all over the country and the promoters of the event feel that they have blazed a path which many American cities and towns will

follow. The symphony orchestra and

the immense choruses are composed of!

Richmond musicians. The orchestra ; has practically been rehearsing for the; Festival for a year and a half, while the choruses have been faithfully trained for nearly seven months. Today these choruses and the orchestra stand without equals in the United States, excepting only professional organizations. Musical critics. Including experts for musical publications, who have heard the orchestra in rehearsal have enthusiastically proclaimed its work as marvelous. The same tribute has been paid to the choruses which include an adult chorus and a children's chorus. Prof. Will Earhart, supervisor of music of the Richmond public schools,

who is conductor and director of the local May Festival, has by his work in

established a national reputation for himself. The position that Richmond

man recently coming from a Texas

training the choruses and the orchestra college, and he has received flattering

offers from school boards and colleges in many states, but he has turned a deaf ear to them. As he puts it. his work here is "not yet finished.'" One of the features of the May Fes

tival will be the engagement of Gwilym

Miles.

In Mr. Miles the Richmond Festival

has secured a singer unquestionably of

the greatest merit Prior to a long so

journ in Europe, some years ago, Mr.

Miles was known almost wholly as an

oratorio singer. Upon his return he

gave in New York, a series of brilliant

song recitals that Immediately placed

him among the most advanced expon

ents of this exacting and sorely abused

art- Such an achievement is possible

only to the singer who has beside ample vocal endowment.' thorough train-' ing, fine intelligence and lively and broad sympathies. All of these Mr. Miles has; and to them he adds an emotional vigor that lends itself to the highest flights of expression. It must. not be thought that Mr. Miles has abandoned oratorio. Rather tas he added the province of the song to his artistic holdings. He remains in greatest favor as one of the foremost oratorio singers of the country, and

Is constantly engaged in the most not

able musical events given here. It is

sufficient to say that in a recent performance of 'Elijah," in Boston, Mass., Mr. Miles in the title role, was hailed by the conservative critics of that city

as the greatest exponent of that part

now before the public.

day and a dry county tomorrow and suppose the temperance was at issue in each county. What is he to do?" This question brought forth a general discussion, and nearly every man in the meeting expressed his opinion. Practically the unanimous opionion was that the temperance question is a local question for each county to handle and determine for Itself. This, it was pointed out, is In line with

republican doctrine on the question. It is a Question they said, with which

mlttee were present, also, as well as 'the state candidates have nothing to

all of the candidates on the state tick

et. It was the first general meeting of these committees and candidates, and was called by ' State Chairman Lee for the purpose of getting all parties together to talk over the plans for the campaign and to hear reports on conditions throughout the state. Other meetings of the same kind are to be held frequently from now on. Up to Executive Board. The word has gone around that the ; meeting was to be one for the purpose of assessing the state candidates for campaign purposes, but no action was taken along that line further than to place the entire matter of making assessments in the hands of the executive committee with full power to act.

Thus it is now up to the executive

committee to make the assessments.

This, however, will not be done for some time. It was said that there was no need for haste In this matter, and that the executive committee should

take its time to it. The candidates came to town expect

ing that they would be assessed, and Judge Harry B. Tuthlll, of Michigan City, candidate for appellate judge,

was disappointed because the assess

ments was not made. He came, he said

prepared to fix his assessment at once

but he had to take his "arrangements" home with him and wait until the ex

ecutive committee gets ready to tell him bow much it will cost him to run

for Judge

The meeting was the most import-

, ant gathering yet held in the campaign

in this state. Every man present made

a report as to conditions existing in

his district or county. While there

were a few spots in the state where

things are not in good shape, it was

the general report that the party is

In good condition as a general proposl

tlon. Things are much better now than they were a few months ago. As one

man said, the party was then passing through the comet's tail, and no one could tell Just what the result was going to be, but now the tail of the comet has passed and disappeared, and the

party has emerged without damage

. From now, on, he said, there will be a

better feeling and less anticipation of

trouble. A General Discussion. ' - . Following the report of each man as to the conditions in his part of the ' state, there was a general discussion led by State Chairman Lee, in which al of the points brought out In the report were considered in detail and remedies suggested wherever needed. This was one of the most valuable features of the meeting and many good suggestions were made as to the best method of carrying on the work of the campaign. It was apparent from the talks made by the various members of the committees and the candidates that every man was in favor of a sharp, brisk campaign which will carry the fight to the enemy at every turn of the road. - - .. More such meetings as the one held

yesterday will be held from time to time. And it is the intention, to adopt the same plan for the various counties in the state. The county committees and the county candidates will be instrutted to hold frequent meetings for the purpose of conferring on the progress of the campaign in the counties. Chairman Lee believes In thorough organisation and In the committees and the candidates keeping in close touch with the situation and with each other. He believes there is wisdom In counsel.'' An Important Matter.

. One of the Important matters that

came before the meeting yesterday was

the temperance question and the best

manner of handling it during the cam

nalrn. Some of those present sought

counsel from the meeting as to the beat policy to follow. One man said ' the fact that there were some wet counties in the state and some dry

counties made It a delicate question

for the state candidates to handle during the campaign.

n8uppose.n he said, "a state candi

do. It does not enter into their case at all. It s a question for each county to determine. The legislative ticket, it

was Dointed out. is the ticket which is

vitally interested in that subject and

each county should take care or tne question when it votes on its legisla

tive candidates.

Will Appeal to People. It is believed that this analysis of

the situation will apepal to the peonle all over the state. The counties

would undoubtedly resent any attempt on the part of the state candidates to

interfere in the local settlement oi me miration for themselves when the tem

perance question is one that does not come before the state candidates or the

state officers. This of course, does not

wind the candidates lor judge oi tue

supreme and appellate courts, for they surely ought not to be expected to air their views of a case which may afterward come before them for judicial de

termination. It would ne uniair auu

unwise to ask them to render tneir personal decision of a case before .they are

elected and before the case is Deiore them. They ought not to be expected

to express opinions on matters which they will probably have to decide Ju

dicially.

That yesterday's meeting was a busy

one is evidenced Dy tne iact mat it started at 1:30 in the afternoon and

did not close until 6 o'clock. Then the candidates held a conference of their own last night and the state committee and executive committee al

so held a meeting at night.

WHEN THE SKIN AILS

Real "First Aid" In Eczema and Skin Troubles of Every Nature. Most medicinal preparations for physicians' use tell on the label what particular disease. they are best adapted to cure. All the troubles readily curable by poslam, the new skin remedy, make a lengthy list, including every surface skin affection, for poslam is "first aid" whenever the skin ails. While primarily a remedy for eczema, acne, tetter, barber's and all other forms of itch, etc., it promptly cures all the lesser skin affections, pimples, blackheads, blotches, fever blisters, red noses, inflamed skin, rash, herpes, clears the complexion and keeps the skin in a healthy condition. Many of these minor troubles are eradicated by poslam over night, others in a day or two, and many cases of eczema yield in two weeks. Itching

stops on first application, and the skin begins to heal at once. Every druggist keeps both the 50cent size (for minor troubles) and the $2 Jar, and either of these may be obtained at W. H. Sudhoff's as well as other reliable drug stores. But ho one is even asked to purchase poslam without first obtaining a

sample package, which will be sent by mall, free of charge, upon request, by

A Timely Hint. Children who suffer from swelling of the glands should have an abundance of fresh air. both by day and night, and a complete change of air as often as possible. Plenty of good nourishing food should be given them, and cod liver oil or emulsion is also helpful in putting things right. .

Caution For Your Children. Mothers should caution their children attending school not to put pencils in their mouths, especially since diphtheria has been communicated in that way in some of our large towns.
