VIEW GOLD TEETH OF THE PASSENGERS Anderson, lnd., Feb. 25. Receiving word from Crestline, O., that a man wanted at that point had boarded a Big Four railroad train and was thought to be headed for this city or Indianapolis and also told that the best description of the man was that all his front teeth are filled with gold, police of this city halted a Big Four passenger train here until the officers could see if the gold tooth man could be found. Two policemen hurried through the cars and experienced no difficulty in getting all of the men to open their mouths to show whether all of their front teeth were filled with gold. Some of the men were rather astonished at the request and occasionally only by a smile by one gave the officers all the tooth display that was desired. Women on the train seemed to enjoy the examination the men had to undergo. The man wanted was not found. FAIRMOUNT WOMAN RECEIVES MEDAL (American News Service) Washington. Feb. 23.

She is the second heroine to receive a similar medal. DR.

LABOR WORLD

en a wage increase of 5 per cent, through an agreement between the Stove Founders' National Defense association and the Iron Molders Union of North America. These organizations have been making contracts annually for twenty-one years during which time there has never been a strike or lockout, nor any interruption of business. The two associations were the rlrst to form and sign a national trade agreement in the country. Philadelphia and Pittsburg are among the few large cities in the United States in which boys act in district messenger service at night. Strong moral reasons exists for prohibiting such labor and requiring at night the employment of grown men, so the Pennsylvania legislature will be asked to look into the matter during the present session. The glass works of the state of Pennsylvania are almost alone in employing boys under the age of 16 years, at night, and this also will be sought remedied. Experience in Ohio and Illinois has shown that this labor is not necessary. The children's bureau, recently created by legislation in the United States senate will be under the direction of the department of commerce and labor. Senator Flint of California is the cuthor of the bill. The chief, under whose direction the bureau will be will receive a salary of $4,000 a year. He will "investigate and report on all matters pertaining to the welfare of children and shall especially investigate the question of Infant mortality, juvenile delinquency and juvenile courts, dangerous occupations and accidents and diseases of children, employment and legislation affecting children." Flushing the streets by machinery will probably be adopted by New York as a part of the city's street cleaning system in the near future. The machines used for cleaning the streets are known as squeeges and their adoption will be vigorously opposed by the labor unions, because their use would substitute machine for hand labor and would, it is argued deprive men of work. The unions are presenting as a strong argument also the cost of the machines, which are expensive to maintain principally because of the wear and tear of the rubber cylinders. Technical education is a live question with the unions these days and trade schools and technical courses conducted for the benefit of apprentices and journeymen are receiving more than ordinary attention. The St. Paul, Minn., union men have planned to establish a "school course" conducted along technical lines in connection with the regular business meetings. In the beginning the plans will provide for short lectures or papers on questions of practical character, and this will be elaborated upon as the work develops. IN HISTORY" died. born in Worchestcr.

The in and out fee law, granting to sheriffs a fee of twenty-five cents for every prisoner entering the jails and a fee of the same amount for every prisoner discharged, was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court yesterday. Suit to determine whether the law was according to the constitution was brought by Henry Bullett, of Indianapolis. His primary purpose was to secure an injunction stopping the payment of such fees in Marion county. EX-JUDGE SUSTAINS HIS OWN MOTION Shelbyville, Ind., Feb. 25. It seems to have been a case of "force of habit" with Will M. Sparks, of Rushville, formerly judge of the Shelby-Johnson judicial circuit of Indiana, that led lawyers here to get the laugh on him. John Kipling was asking a question of a witness when Mr. Sparks, representing the plaintiff, objected, and his objections were rather strenuous, as he thought Mr. Kiplinger was going too far with the witness. Finally he jumpid from his seat and said: T sustain the objection." and Judge Blair and the attorneys smiled. The former judge had six years of "sustaining" objections on the bench in Rush and Shelby courties and it was natural for him to sustain an objection.

The "best policeman" in the United States, according to those who knew him has been shot. He was "Uncle Tommy Cureton," of Greenville, S. C. a brave soldier in the Confederate army, and a popular idol in uniform in the little city ever since the war. "Uncle Tommy" was the embodiment of kindness. Everybody who knew him loved him. He was not a man of violence, but a man of peace. When it was necessary for him to make an arrest, he did so in the gentlest manner. The very toughest of the tough respected him, and the most vicious did not offer him resistance. But the other day he had occasion to arrest a drunken man, and the fellow drew a gun and shot him. Now the newspapers of the South, especially, are telling what a horrible thing it was, and are otherwise congratulating "Uncle Tommy" that he was not killed. . All of which is here printed to call attention to the fact that the occupation of policeman is a hazardous one; that danger lurks ever around the corner; that no policeman's life is safe, regardless of the manner of man he is. Always there is some fellow, crazed by drink or desperate to make his escape, who is ready to draw a gun and shoot him. It is the easiest thing in the world to find fault with a policeman. He doesn't seem to be where he is wanted; never in sight when he is needed, people will say. If he doesn't stand still and let a thug beat him up he uses his mace for his own protection and knocks a scoundrel in the head there is always some one to declare that he is brutal. Very few of us indeed ever give a passing thought to the risks he takes or to the hardships which he endures. As a matter of fact, the average policeman is an unusual man. The fact that he is a policeman is pretty good evidence that he is not seeking to make a living without work. His duties are such that he dare not shirk responsibility. His life is such a hazardous one that certainly a coward would not seek the place, or continue to fill it after he is appointed. That there are brutal policemen, there is no question. That all of them do not always use the best judgment is perhaps true. That policemen have been known to be no better than the criminals they arrest is a matter of history. But, man for man, the policeman is as honest, as industrious, as kindly and accommodating aa any other set of men on earth. K In estimating them, one should take their duties into consideration, and weigh well the chances they are compelled to take. They are out in all hours, day and night, and they deal with the very class with which other men do not want to deal. They come in contact with the unpleasant things of life they see the seamy side always. It is no wonder, then, that occasionally a policeman is found to be derelict of duty, or that he should overstep the bounds of reason. Solomon himself would not have been able to always act wisely if he had had to meet as many emergencies as a policeman meets. GOTHAM GOSSIP New York. Feb. 24. There is probably not a fire company in New York that does not have a dog not enitrely as a mascot or a pet, but as a matter of efficiency. "Why, we couldn't get along without our dog," explained an old fireman. "He probably saves thousands of dollars worth of property every year by putting the men and horses on their mettle and getting them to fires quicker than the could do without his assistance. "The dog is useful at all times when properly trained, but he does his best work in the early hours when men and horses are aroused from a deep sleep and are naturally inclined to be slow. The gong awakes them, to be sure, but a dog is needed to finish the job. The trained the dog when the alarm rings, jumps about wildly barking and biting at the legs and noses of the horses. In a few minutes he has pestered the horses so much that they are crazy to get off and when the chain drops they are ih full headway almost at once. The yelping of the dog also arouses the men and puts ginger into them. "It has been proved time and again by accurate timing, that a live wire dog saves two or three minutes in responding to a night alarm. And two or three minutes saved in case of fire sometimes means the salvation of human lives as well as property." Some of 'em are pale about the gills and are evidently not extracting a great deal of enjoyment from the process, yet practically every Columbia freshman is smoking a pipe on the campus today. That sacred privilege was won by the first year men in the annual cane sprees which decide inter-class supremacy. By the unwritten law of the student body, freshies are prohibited from smoking pipes on the college grounds until after Washington's birthday, and then only if they have succeeded in winning the cane spree from the sophs. There is tax-free property in New York city amounting to more than a billion and a quarter of dollars.

By MINNA Fritz Pitt had all his life been rather fond of the bottle. Nor was he fastidious in his taste, laager beer, and common corn brandy everything was welcome to his dry throat. But unfortunately Fritz was forced to join that group of philosophers who insist that man has no free will, for in his case it was Micke. who had the will. Micke was his wife. Now of course, it was different, for Micke had died in her bed during the night. That she should thus have left him without saying a word was a thing that Fritz could never understand. She never would have done so in her life. Fritz was standing in front of a brown painted wall cupboard with the leaded glass panes holding a big cup with many nickels and a few silver coins in his trembling hand. He glanced cautiously at his dead compan ion, before he dared give himself up to the joy of being his own master for the first time in many years. He put the earthenware cup back on the (shelf, went over to the side of the I bed and said softly and good naturediy: "Yes, Micke. it can't be helped. Now yod have to leave me for good." She had always been a good wife to him, he (nought, and patted her cold cheek not a little surprised that she did not stir. Theu he went over to the immense blue painted wooden chest with the year "Anno Domini 1841" painted on the lid, which stood near the hearth, took out his Sunday clothes and slowly put them on, but he could not manage to tie the black neckerchief properly, for this Micke had always used to do for him. Fritz did not look at Micke when he again opened the cupboard before he left the house. His first errand was to the parsonage there he modestly announced that his wife had died during the night and paid J0 pfennig to the poor, asked the parsbn to make WANTS DECREE OF DIVORCE NOLLIED Valparaiso, Ind., Feb. 25. Mrs. Barbara Bowes, of Lewisburg, Pa., filed a suit here to set aside a decree of divorce granted by Special Judge A. L. Osborne, April 1, 1869, to Manning Bowes, whom she claims to have married at Lewisburg, August 31, 1859 and with whom she continued to live until January 1, 1867, when by mutual agreement he departed for the West to make a home for them and their daughter Eva, now Mrs. Guyer, of Ashbourne, Penn. In 1890 he purchased a home for his wife and daughter in Lewisburg and thereafter until the time of his death in San Francisco, December 9, 1910, he supported his wife and daughter with $45 and $25 a month, respectively. In the meantime he secured a divorce without notifying her of the proceed; ings. The complaint alleges that he married a daughter of a Methodist minister in Connecticut, was divorced from her and then married Minnie E. Bowee, now a resident of San Francisco. No trace can be found of the Connecticut woman. Mrs. Bowes claims that her husband obtained a divorce through fraud; that she is denied participation in his estate of $60,000 left in California by Bowes; has no means of support at the age of seventy years, and asks that the divorce decree be set aside to provide her with privileges of a widow. A HAPPY HOME-COMING. The husband who comes home from his daily toil, whether working for small or large pay, must appreciate the presence of a wife well gowned and restfully awaiting him, and children equally well groomed and showing every evidence of maternal care. slave to drudgery, but a happy homebuilder. Hewitt's Easy Task soap is of the greatest help to this blessed condition, because it "lessens the labor of keeping the home and all that pertains to it clean, wholesome and attractive. No friction to such a home. Five cents a cake. ACTRESS THROWS WIG INTO AUDIENCE St. Paul, Feb. 25.- This is not a press agent story. The girls say so themselves. Misses Bernham and Greenwood, who put on a "stunt" at the Orpheum this week, entitled "Two Girls and a Piano" called at the central police station and said they had been robbed. One wig, valued at $25, they say, was stolen. Here's the way it happened. At the close of their act. Miss Greenwood is supposed to grab Miss Bernham's honest-to-goodness-real-hair wig and throw it to the orchestra pit. Miss Greenwood put on too much speed and the curly locks went clear into the third row. Instead of returning the switch as the gentlemanly members of the orchestra had always done, the man who caught it put it in his pocket. It was there when he left the theater. And now Manager Clarence Dean, the Wigless Miss Bernham and her strong armed partner want the police to find the missing hair. STOP THAT

Short Story

VON HEIDE known the death from the pulpit the next Sunday and listened to the reverend gentleman's words of consolation with bowed head. Then Fritz went to the inn, but there he did not tell anyone that Micke had died. They would know soon enough how it happened that Fritz dared visit the inn on an ordinary weekday, dressed in his best clothes. The beer tasted better than ever he thought, and he ordered one drink after the other until the host shook his head when Fritz pointed to his empty stein. But though his head felt as heavy as lead, Fritz was able to walk quite straight along the narrow footpath along the canal to his home. It was one of Fritz's peculiarities that no matter how much he drank and how mixed the drinks were they never had any visible effect on him. When he reached his house, Fritz opened the door very softly and peeped in very cautiously, but, stranse though it was. Micke did not stir. The next day Fritz went to Meldorf in Christian Berg's wagon and when it was dark he returned with Micke's coffin. He lifted the beautiful varnished box out of the wagon put it on his shoulder and carried it inside without losing his balance for a moment, but when he had returned the wagon and team to Christian Berg had came home again, he fell asleep while trying to pull off his heavy hobnailed boots. lie was not sober for a single moment during the three days that passed before Micke's funeral and who could blame him? Here Fritz had almost reached the time ot his golden wedding and had never had the pleasure of being really free. But when they threw the dirt back into the grave on top of Micke's coffin, he felt strangely dizzy. He sneaked home, sat down at the big square table, star ed at the empty bed and howled like an 'animal in pain. SILK HAT DOES NOT BEGET A BRIDE Logansport, Ind., Feb. 25. Oscar Newport, employed as machinist in the Panhandle shops here, has return ed after a hurried visit to Des Moines, la., and another correspondence court ship has been shattered. Newport left Logansport Friday for Des Moines, where he was to meet Miss May Devore, of Mt. Etna, la., with whom he had corresponded for several months. They were to meet in the station and, if mutually agreeable, were to be married. Neither had seen the other, and for the purpose of identification, Newport was to wear a silk hat and the girl was to wear a red rose., Shortly after Newport left Logansport a special delivery letter addressed to him from Mt. Etna, la., arrived. It missed him by a few hours. He stopped in Chicago, purchased a silk hat. and, wearing this, alighted from the train in Des Moines and looked anxiously for a girl with a red rose. He waited several hours and then took a train and went to Mt. Etna. lie called at the girls home and she was surprised to see him. She said that she had sent him a special delivery letter telling him not to come, as she had changed her mind about marrying. Newport returned to Logansport, bringing the silk hat instead of a wife. J. M. Coe, of the J. M. Coe Printing Company is offering to printers everywhere a formula for estimating the cost of stock required for any given job, which is much shorter than the methods now generally in use among printers. In fact, it gives the exact cost of stock for any pamphlet of book almost instantaneously. Mr. Coe does not claim to have discovered a new thing, but only the application to this particular work of an old mathematical principal. Paper men who have tried it speak of it as a great time-saver. 25-1 1 AMBITIOUS TURK NOW EVANGELIST Anderson, Ind., Feb. 25. A young Turk, who nineteen years ago, drifted into this city and was hired as a butler by the late Major C. T. Doxey, continued in the major's employ about three years and In the meantime attended night school, is here for a visit as the Rev. Charles Mahommed.

"My husband bought me one bottle of Cardui, the woman's tonic. 1 took it according to directions and now I am. in good health. "I think Cardui is a fine tonic for weak women." .
