It is given in the Interest of the city and financed by the business men. Success awaiting anyone with enterprise in the Panic Proof City. Hems Gathered in From Far and Near Lives Thrown Away. From the Hartford Times. The memorial tablet In the Harvard Union bears the names of twelve Harvard men who lost thir lives In the war of 1S9S. The remarkable thing is that not one of them was killed or fatally injured in action. All died of disease, most of them from typhoid fever. Fifty years ago this would not have been strange; then typhoid infection was not understood as it is now, or as it was in 1S9S. Hut in 1S9S the knowledge possessed by physicians had made little impression on officers or men even in the regular service. With the volunteers the case was far worse. In some camps arrangements for spreading the disease could not have been better made if that had been the intention, but the chief cause of its prevalence was the lack of efficient discipline intelligently applied. In the whole Cuban war few men were killed, but a great number perished from disease that was mostly preventable. ' Civil Above the Military. From the Boston Transcript. - It may be doubted if British opinion would take kindly to a aprerelgn who should prove himself, a real commander in tho field, or to a royal prince who should actively command in a campaign. There is still a deep-seated popular conviction that the military Show Id he subordinate to the civil pow0t which would be affronted by a sol-
INSURGENT IOWA
Mr. James Schoolcraft Sherman; Vice President of the United States, frier of fat, and ambassador extraordinary"; plenipotentiary from the court of St. Cannon to his majesty's loyal subjects in "Wisconsin dropped off in Chicago on his return from wind-jabbing In Wisconsin. (This Is one of the few occasions on which a Vice President has had to be pressed into service to try to keep men from straying over party lines. It is noticeable that Mr. Sherman was not present on April 5 in Indianapolis nor has he been in Iowa.) But as we were saying, Mr. Sherman stopped off in Chicago. ' Concerning his visit the Chicago Tribune says: "The Hon. James Schoolcraft Sherman, Vice President of the United States, tarried in the union station, Chicago, from S:4. o'clock to 9:30 o'clock yesterday morning. This was either three-quarters of an hour too long or about twenty-four hours too short a period. It was long enough for him to say of the Iowa primaries: "Myadvices are that only one of our candidates was defeated.'' (Referring to the failure of Congressman Hull to secure renominatalon.) It was not long enough for him to explain the pronoun. "Our?" It Is the general impression that Prouty, who defeated Hull, is a Republican, and that the same voters who helped to elect Mr. Sherman helped to nominate the successfull candidate in the Seventh Iowa district. "Our?" Is Mr. Sherman speaking of himself and the Republican party or of himself and Speaker Joseph Gurney Cannon." Out In Iowa it has been necessary for that stalwart statesman, Col. Lafe Young, the militant Chaplain of Standpatism, to organize the Iowa Taft Club. "Our" Iowa is well clubbed, when any thing is to be started behold the club. It was the work of the Taft club to keep Des Moines and vicinity from breaking over the traces. Our advices from Iowa are slightly at variance with those expressed by Sunny Jim in Chicago.
MR. WATSON EXPLAINS "Mr. Watson took up the Payne tariff bill, discussing at length the iron, cotton, wool and other schedules, explaining why each was fixed as it is and declaring that Congress in framing the bill was trying to make a tariff bill that would aid the manufacturers of the country, help the laboring classes and at the same time satisfy as large a proportion of the population of the nation as possible." News Item. Mr. Watson has an advantage over many of us he knows more about how the tariff was made than almost anyone that Is his business. Mr. Watson spent a great amount of his time in Washington and was accounted one of the best attorneys there. Most of us by this time have a pretty definite idea as to "why each was fixed" and the manner in which it was done. The smiling Mr. Watson who proclaims himself the friend of "the laboring classes" and The Rest of Us may be a little surprised about the "satisfaction" with which "as large a proportion of the population as possible" views his labors on the tariff commission which framed up the latest tariff bill in November. If Mr. Watson would really explain, some magazine would climb to the seven million mark.
THE LAST DA Y
Ostensibly at least this is the last day of the canvass for members of the Young Men's Business Club. If it were another organization we might assume that work would stop. As it is, knowing the men who are active in that work, it will happily continue. Which is to say if any man wants to join in the work of making Richmond a better town he will not have the excuse that he has not been asked, but will have to fall back on the illness and sudden death of the pessimist.
WELCOME TO OUR CITY The New Castle Times says: C. W. Stivers, publisher of the Liberty Herald, the Republican organ of Union county, was in the city last evening, en route to Richmond, says the Connersville Examiner, t Mr. Stivers is arranging to start a paper at Richmond, but will continue the publication of the Liberty paper just the same. Richmond has two excellent Republican papers and one Democratic publication, but both of the Republican papers are insurgents and Mr. Stivers thinks Wayne county is entitled to at least one "regular" party organ. He will Issue both a daily and weekly paper. Richmond has been the graveyard for more newspapers than any other town in this section of the state. The next thing we know Richmond will be read out of the party.
Considering that it was only about a year ago that every one became interested in fire protection for the West Side it doesn't seem to have taken long.
"From all that we have been hearing down in Indiana and over in the city of the national government, we did not know there were so many Republicans in Wisconsin." Jim Watson. Our statesman has ever regarded a political ward heeler as worth fifty of what he calls "population." 1
The "noisesome roar" of Democracy no doubt kept the Wayne County Democratic candidates for the legislature from hearing Senator Shlvely's vigorous denial of the bribery charges.
dier-king. Conservative Britons might see danger to the constitution in a monarch of the soldiery as a brother in arms. Tip to Railroads. From the New York World. There are railroads familiar to New Yorkers that could easily get some money for improvements bv reducing dividends improperly and unjustifiably advanced. Nor would the shares of a road thus sensibly conducted suffer long in the market. They would ultimately advance in value. And the Alpaca Coat. From the Anacoda Standard. The straw hat is making a tentative appearance, but the linen duster still shrinks from publcity. Helps the Cause. From the Philadelphia Press.

TWINKLES BY PHILANDER JOHNSON. The Much-Used Title. "I don't believe that fellow is a regular poet," said the editor who works with his sleeves rolled up. "Why, he has composed some very soulful pieces." "Yes. But I've looked all through his works and I can't find anything entitled 'De profundis.' " Embarrassment. My Uncle Jim got famous It doesn't matter how. Fur folks get in the spot-light All of a sudden now. They had his picture printed Where every one could see. On advertising posters 'Twas circulated free. The poetized about him. The rhymes they put in use Ranged all the way from Blron To dear old Mother Goose. They talked about his eating His clothes, likewise his kin, Till when his name was mentioned Some one was sure to grin. He got to lookin' furtive As down the street he went, Where once he strolled unnoted In quiet and content. We've stopped our eelebratin Since he confessed to us Our well-meant efforts made him Feel plain re-dicyle-lus. Everybody Laughed. He was a man of solemn thought Until by Cupid he was caught.

Central Asia. The people liviug in the cotton belt of central Asia represent a conglomerate of all the races and nations that in ages past have inhabited these regions, from pure Aryans to full fledged Mongols. They all adhere to the Mohammedan faith and speak various dialects of the Tartar-Sart-Bokhara language except in the southwestern part, where the influence of the Persian language is flt.

DRILL WAS SUCCESS
A financial success as well as a social success was the exhibition drill at the Pythian temple, Wednesday evening, given by the drill teams of the Calanthe Sisters and the Triumph lodge. Approximately $100 was realized. Jefferson Meyers directed the work of the Calanthe Sisters while the Triumph lodge team was in charge of Elmer Weisbrod. The Calanthe Sisters were dressed in hite and numbered sixteen. Red, white, blue and yellow sashes were used by the team members, the divisions of the team being designated in this manner. The two teams gave individual drills and then a joint drill. During the evening the floor was cleared for dancing and many enjoyed the evening in this manner Renk's orchestra furnished the music.
