of Marion and a lawyer, did not apeak upon the bill at all but bo voted acalnst It every time he could and voted for alt amendments that would weaken It. Senator Wood thought the bill was Socialistic, lie said the Socialists in Anderson could call an election every whlp-stltch under the bill and it would be a menace to many Indiana cities. , 'Jt is foolish to foist upon the people something they do not need and have not asked for,", he said. , Senator Clark, of Indianapolis, favor rd the bill, and In supporting- it "he said: "It was only a few years ago a franchise was up in Indianapolis worth over a million dollars. The people rra hnlnloaa ln1iinHnna fnllnd llnd
the voters been given a chance the franchise would have failed. This bill Is for Just such occasslons. Many times the people's .hands have been tied by perpetual franchises."; Senator Curtis, of Mt Vernon, took occasion to remark that he was getting somewhat weary of having all legislation amended to suit conditions in Lake county and he was against Uavlt's motion. . Kan to ths Rescue. After Sen. Gavlt's amendment was
lost. Senator Kane came to the res
cue of the people to save them from foolish persons In their midst, by offering an amendment that the petitioners for an election upon a fran
chise must tile with the petition bonds
guaranteeing the cost of any election ' called which goes against the petition
ers, lie said this was done in order
to nrotect the taxpayers from indls-
' prlmlnitA ealllne f elections. This
amendment making voters pay for an
election regarding their rights unless
they won was carried , by a vote of
23 to 15.
Then followed a . parliamentary
wrangle which no one was able to fol
low beyond, the fact, that Its general direction was to befuddle the senate and kill the bill by a lot' of foolish
amendments. Roll calls were aban doned and heads were counted in de
termlnlng results, which must have
been satisfactory to many of the sena
, tors, when they got through they found they had amended It so that
women and children could sign pet I
Hon. They cut out the children by
making the signers of necessity over .' twenty-one which left women the right
. ..mi
, vo sign pcuuuna. At this juncture Senator Stotsen
berg offered an amendment to refer the whole . thing , to a referendum of
the people of the state and made an
eloquent argument In favor, of rele endumlng everything that was,loonc at both ends. .Ills amendment received the support of the bulk of the Republicans but It was lost by a vote of 24 to If. Those who voted to kill the bill In this genteel fashion were Brady Crumpacker, Farrell. Gavit, Halleck, - . . . i i. xf i l tri ... i
JianilU, liaucK, iviuit-', niiuuin, rviauci, Moore, Nettcrvllle, Ratts, Scxon, Slotaenberg. Strange, ! Trautman, Wood and Yarlln. Senator Kane placed his .finger on Ms brow and evolved another statesmanlike thought. Inasmuch . as the bill had been amended so that v. omen could sign petitions he thought the limit should be raised, so he offered an amendment that It would require 43 percent of all the cltlsens to sign a petition calling for an election. After a stormy roll call In which enough changed their votes to defeat the amendment It stood 23 to 30 against Kane's amendment. Those who tried Kane'a opiate upon the bill were Hrady. Crumpacker, KImmel, Moore, Farrell, Fleming Gavit, Gers, Halleck, Ilanna, Hauck Hunt, Kane, Nettervllle, lowers. Ratts, Scxon, Strange, White 'and Wood. Then 8e.nator Klstler moved the previous question and the vote upon the bill as amended was taken.' those voting against It being: Brady, Farrell. Fleming. Gavit, Gers. . Hauck, Hunt. Kane, KImmel, Klstler, Moore, Nettervllle, Powers. Ratts. Royse, Sexon, v Stotsenberg, Strange, Trautman and Wood. Total 20. Twenty-three voted for It, which Is three less than a constitutional majority and the bill failed of passage, although It may be called up again.

Intended to relieve the financial stringency experienced by the city, lncidently the bill will be of Interest to forty-one other fifth-class cities In Indiana. Mayor Barnard's bill provides that cities of the fifth class owning water works plants may Issue bonds on such plants and ase the money thus raised for expenses other than those of Improving the plants. The rapid growth of this city, giving rise to a need of new streets, water . main extensions.

Mayor Barnard would Issue 4 per cent, bonds on the later works property, which Is worth about two hundred, thousand dollars, and ase the money to pay off this floating Indebtedness, and thus save ths city the 2 per cent.

PAIN FROM STUBBED TOE RETURNS VOICE 'Madison, Neb., Jan. 31. While singing a solo in the Presbyterian church here, three months ago,' Miss Lydla Donovan, member of the ' choir and daughter of John B. Donovan, editor of the Star-Mall, suddenly - lost her voice, being unable, to utter a sound. Since ' that time until last week, she was speechless. Miss Donovan recovered her speech as suddenly as she lost It, She left her home to go downtown. Passing along the sidewalk she stubbed her toe hard and . 'the pain of it brought out the word "ouch." The word cainc with full vocalization, and ever since then Miss Donovan has been jable, to articulate as clearly and with as much force as before she was stricken dumb. ' ' , .
"I was Crippled, could hardly walk and had to Crawl down stairs at times on my hands and knees. My doctor told me I had an acute attack of inflammatory , rheumatism. I was in the hospital for weeks, but was scarcely able to walk when I left it. I read about Dr. Miles' Nervine bought a bottle and began to get better from the start, and for the past six months I have had scarcely any pain and am able to walk as well as ever." J.H. Sanders, .P. O. box 5, Rockaway, N. J. Few medicines are of any benefit for rheumatism, but Mr. Sanders tells plainly what Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine did for it. One ounce of salicylate of soda added to one bottle of Nervine makes an excellent remedy for rheumatism, which is now known to be a nervous disease and therefore subject to the influence of a medicine that acts through the nerves, as does .

There were near "yellows" before Goddard's journalistic day, but the discoverer of the "real principle" of sensationalism in journalism, says, Mr. Irwin belongs to Mr. Goddard.

San Antonio, Tex., Jan. 31. In an effort to enforce the neutralty laws detachments of soldiers from ' Fort Sam Houston have been .stationed along the border at various points on the Rio Grande. It is maintained that large shipments of both arms and ammunition are taken across the river into Mexico almost -every day ' and turned into the hands of the marauding bands which have been creating some oS."bance. It is to prohibit such goods from crossing the river

., San Antonio, Tex., .Jan. 31. Texas has taken the initiative in demonstrating the use of the automobile for interurban service Instead of the usual
traction trolley line. Already from Sonora, far out on the Western plain?, for several years an automobile line
has' crossed the big divide 'to San Angela and the railroad. At Fredericksburg, a little German town high up in the mountains, is an automobile line
that runs over a high mountain to con
nect with t!ie railroad to San Antonio.
, Now comes the announcement of a new Interurban automobile line from San Antonio to Sutherland Springs, thirty miles southeast of this city. There will be several round" trips daily with" big modern touring cars to connect this beautiful winter resort with Sail' Antonio. It will be a popular trip with the tourists staying in this city to go out there and drink of the min
eral .waters, take the hot " sulphur baths, as well as enjoy the trip through a beautiful country. 4 The result of - tills automobile , development is a demand for better roads. It has ; educated the farmers to see. the saving of having good roads and road improvement and road building is going on in nearly every community. While it is not generally known, it is a fact nevertheless, that Texas will have one of the longest automobile roads in the-United States when a few finished links are completed. ' This road will extend from
Houston-to Brownsville, by the way of Corpus Christ!; Klngsville and other intermediate points. Connecting "with this at Corpus Christi will be another road to San ?. Antonio. This "', will be completed during the coming summer. With the completion of a few abort stretches, another road will be continuous from this city to Lardo, 150 miles
south: This auto way, when the un
finished links are completed, will be almost 1.000 miles in length. But long as this is, it Is but the- beginning of auto roadways in Texas. Already a line stretching across the state from ea3t to west !s projected
and another from the Red river ' to i
the gulf, crossing the state north and south. In no part of the country, per
haps, is the automobile playing such j an important part in rapid, transit as
