The Real State

Yesterday the Indiana society of Chicago came back to Indiana aa the guests of Indlanapolia. They came with their wives and children. There were celebrated men among1 them and all were men of power. Ade, MeCutheon. Tarklngton, Meredith, Nicholson, the men who are known very Where. It wn a gathering of the forces of men who bare made good. They were not men who had to go away from home to make good but men who would have made good anywhere they had the stuff in them and was not by accident nor by mere chance the Indiana society stands for ' accomplishment and effectiveness. They say In Chicago that when anything goes through that the Indiana society has to get behind it And that is another way of saying what we have already said.

It is a good thing that the Indiana society came back to Indiana. The reason is that the state of Indiana has good reason in the Indiana society of Chicago to know where it stands in the general scheme of things. This is a big country but when any state of the country can show up In the present forefront of things in the metropolitan centers It means something. Hooslers have been mocked for their ple-eatlng reactlonarlsm so long that reactlonarlsm and not accomplishment has come to be expected from Indiana. We do not know that anyone has ever traced the connection between the boosting spirit and the progressive movement Pes Moines In the heart of Insurgent Iowa, Kansas City, in progressive Kansas. But the fact is that wherever there is definite accomplishment boosting and vital movement there is the progresive movement Boosting cannot come of selfishness. Boosting alms at progress, and pure co-operative efficiency. Big business is as much against this as it is against progress and pure' Democratic efficiency in the gpvernment Business is politics and politics is business. Special privilege depends on "luck." Progressive efficiency depends on "labor."

The gathering of a large group of men from Indiana gives a chance for testing what there is in the state viewing the state by its best of all sorts. There is power in this state and it can be set for or against Indiana. Which way? Which sort at state would you rather come home to? Which sort of state would you rather live in?

TAUGHT je BOXING Henry Millions Had Best of Bout with Wife. Until Officer Bundy appeared on the scene last evening, Henry Millions (at the time of his arrest having seventy-two cents in his pockets), presumably was givine his wife boxing lessons at their home in the North End. At the e nd of the round when Officer Bundy appeared for the Bake of the dignity of the law. Millions was hitting Mrs. Millions foul, the officer alleges. Her clothes were torn and the officer says she showed other evidence of an unmistakibly brutal beating. Millions made a rush for the officer, with his hand on his gun pocket, but Bundy was too Quick and disarmed Millions almost as quickly as he subdued him: The alleged wife beater win probably - answer assault and battery and public intoxication charges on Monday in police court. THE VEILED PROPHET.' He Was the Moat Noted Impostor of the Middle Ages. The celebrated -Veiled Prophet" of history was a Moslem fanatic whose real name was Haken Ibn Uasbem. lie wss born about the middle of the eighth century and became the most noted Impostor of the middle ages, lie pretended that he was an embodiment of the spirit of the "living God" and, being very proficient in Jugglery (which the Ignorant mistook for the power to work miracles), soon drew an immense number of followers around him. ne alwsys wore a gold mask, claiming that be did so to protect the mortals of this earth, who, be said, could not look upon bis face and live. At last, after thousands had qnltted tho city and even left the employ of the Caliph al Mohdl to join the fanatical movement, an army was sent against the "Veiled Prophet," forclns him to flee for safety to the castle at Keh, north of the Ozus. Finally, when ultimate defeat was certain, the prophet killed and burned his whole family and then threw himself into the flames, being entirely consumed, except his hair, which was kept In a museum at Bagdad until the time of the crusades. He promised bis faithful followers that he would reappear to them in the future dressed in white and riding a white horse. inveating money.

The Husky Jamaican Didn't Care to Work For Nothing. An English naval officer tells of be ing on a war vessel which took pro visions to St. Kltts, one of the Brit lsh West India islands. A hurricane had left many of the inhabitants In a destitute or even starving condition. Hungry crowds gathered at the wharf, but refused to belp unload the food that was to be given to them unless paid for their work. A similar story sheds light on the Jamaican negro. Some years ago a hurricane devastated tbe Island, and a large relief sum wss raised, much of It in England and the United States. The committee having charge of this fund sent a wagon load of lumber to a husky black man whose house bad been scattered over tbe parish. He and his family were living in a rude hack, made out of odds and ends. "What's that fur?' he asked of the men who were unloading the material in front of bis patch of ground. "That's , for your new house," was the reply. "It's from tbe relief fun and won't cost you anything." "Who's goln to build mah bouse?" "Ton are, if anybody does." "Who's goln' to pay me fur mah work?" Waynesboro Record. Engraved His Way to Freedom. Charley Ulrich. one of tbe world's greatest counterfeiters, was tried and sent to the penitentiary In Columbus, O for fifteen years. He waa a model prisoner, and he waa allowed to have a little shop in tbe prison yard. One day be picked up an old circular saw blade In tbe yard and engraved on It a portrait of William Allen, who was at that time the Democratic candidate for governor. It was one of the most perfect portraits ever engraved. When Ulrich had been In prison for seven years President Hayes pardoned him through the intercession of the warden.

Let us put the other side of that beatitude Cursed are tbe merciless, for they ball not obtain mercy. Blessed cursed. They are tbe twe sides of the same shield. If the one Is true the other must be true. Blessed is be who steads at the doors of life to dispense to those wbo need kindness aad mercy. To him come the sorrowing, tbe weak, tbe heavy laden, tbe misunderstood, the down and out. e may sometimes be tricked or cheated In bis clemency, sometimes he may be overcredulous. But He Is blessed. . And wben he in bis turn needs mercy the world will be very tender and solicitous. On the other band, tbe merciless Is sure to be punished for his lack of mercy. And wben be is lasbed for his sin tbe world will look on and laugh at his discomfiture and feel that retribution has found its certain victim. Take the business world. The business man who is hard and unrelenting, wbo demands his pound of flesh, who kicks bis rival wben be is down, some day so changeable are economic conditions some day he will be In need of tbe mercy he has refused another. And thenRevenge steps in tbe revenge of the refused. Men are quick to pay in resentment; but, you say, are tbey always grateful for mercy shown them? Nearly always. About the last thing a real man forgets Is the hour of his need and mercy. But grateful or no "The quality of mercy Is not strained." It blesses him wbo gives as It curses him wbo withholds. The quality of mercy ennobles a man. It makes him big in soul, strong in honesty and tall enough to stoop in service. It Is only the chlvalric In spirit who are merciful Therefore be merciful. It pays, and It Is tbe sign of greatness tbe greatness of goodness. When you are tempted to strike, stay your hand. And scorn not your rival when he is in the dust. Be merciful. Else some evil day you shall be delivered over to the retribution that awaits Its chance. Be merciful and obtalnvmercy. CROSSING THE RUBICdN. Supposing you bad a wife and baby dependent upon you, would you voluntarily give up a sure salary of 870 and take one at half that figure? . ' B, F. Sneed of Cblcsgo did. And he did it after mature thought and consultation with bis wife and the baby. And Mrs. Sneed urged him to do It. A foolish woman? But stay. Hear tbe story. Sneed was a sort of buman adding machine In an Insurance office, Saturday after noons off, two weeks' vacation with pay. But there was no chance of promotion. Men grew gray at the same desk tbey took as youngsters. Like thousand of office hacksworkers at billing machines, mimeographs, ledgers, - envelope addressers. Invoice checkers he saw nothing ahead but tbe pay envelope. Sneed saw an "ad." A young man was wanted in the agricultural Implement business who would begin at the bottom and make good. Sneed applied and after several Interviews was offered the place at $8 a week to begin. Could be do it? Was It wise to give up a sure thing for an experiment? Could the little family live on $8 until tbe first Increase In salary? Tbe wife said yes. There's a lot of heroism In the world besides tbe "bravo sort. Sneed accepted, and tbe family moved Into a ten dollar house In the rear of the old number. Telephone and electric lights were cut out. Cheap cuts of meat and old clothes helped some. In sixty days came a two dollar In crease, another at six months, at nine months, at the end of the year. Inside tbe second year Sneed was drawing 890 per month. Besides He had learned a business and knew the mechanism of every machine ban died by tbe firm. Now he Is assistant credit man. with but one promotion between him and a big salary. Fine! Fine! Do not disguise the fact that It took rare courage to let go a fixed Income and take up an untried business. Sneed waa In a rut and It jolted things to get out. ButHaving made his decision, having burned bis bridges behind him, nav ing plunged Into the Rubicon, be bad won half tbe battle before the fight ing. And also, be It remembered, besides Sneed there was Tbe woman behind the maa. atal Finger Rings. Count Zborowskl whea killed In a fearful meter accident at Nice In 1903 was wearing a fatal ring which had belonged to bis family for four genera tie ns. In each ef thee generations tbe bead of the family had worn the ring and each bad met with a vlo lent death. Still more a ma zing is a story told by the late bead of tbe Paris morgue. Five times with la his experience dead bodies brought to the morgue were found . to be wearing a certain ring easily distinguishable by Its strange design.

SIGHTED AN ELK. " ' ' ' On Party Lest th Game, While the Other Side Won the Match. Sometimes the autumn is very hot In the Rockies hot. still, glittering weather, with the thermometer at 90 or more. Three hunters on such a biasing autumn day sat on tbe hotel porch of a small mountain town. Their shirts were open at the throat, and they were fanning themselves with their big felt hats. But suddenly one of them exclaimed: "Look, boys, look!" They looked where the msn pointed, and a wonderful sight met their eyes. On a peak at the summit of tbe high trail. 8,000 feet above their beads, stood a superb elk. There he stood like a statue, his antlers beautifully outlined against tbe bright blue sky. "Bucks are scarce enough, but an elk!" gasped the three hunters, and In

Tbe thermometer in the sun was about 120. Finally as their red, dripping and breathless leader peered on hands and knees across a log at tbe top of tbe trail he saw a man calmly chewing the stem of an unllghted cigar. "Did you did you see the elkf panted the leader. The other, with a laugh, pointed with his cigar to where a little group of campers were unstrapping a pair of old antlers from the head of a mule. "Pardon me. old man," be said, "but we've just run out of matches, and. the day being too hot for a trip down below, we thought we might perhaps decoy a few of you fellows up here to help us out." Pulling Teeth In Scotland. An old Scotchwoman journeyed to London to visit her son. She was taken with a jumping toothache and upon the advice of her son visited a dentist, who soon bad tbe offending molar flying in the air. With a sigh of relief tbe old lady climbed out of the chair and asked: "How mooch?" "Ten shillings, mam." replied the dentist. "Tin shillings, is It, ye robberT screamed the woman.

There's a youngster in Boston whose appetite Is a constant source of amasement to bis family and relatives. On one occasion this lad was taken to spend tbe day with an uncle in the suburbs. At dinner he ate so much that finally it became actually necessary to forbid him to eat any more. Later, wben tbe family were taking their ease on the porch, the irrepressible William pulled something from his pocket and began gnawing It. "What have you there?" demanded his father. "Only a dog biscuit," came in apolo getic tone from Willie. "Where did you get it?" "I knew I'd be hungry before I got home." explained the lad. "so I took it away from Fldo." Lippincott's.

LADY FACET'S TVIHS

WILL BE AMERICAN Surrender Their Places in English Society to Become Ranch Owners. New York, June 24. Raving surren dered their places in English society to become owners of a California ranc Arthur Henry Paget, K. C B., com mander of the eastern divisions of the army of Great Britain, and Lady Paget, have left New York for Butler, Cal, where they will make their home. At the Waldorf-Astoria Reginald Paget in formed a reporter that he and his brother intended to marry American girls and become full Hedged American citizens. Three years ago the Paget boys, who are now 23 years old, came to the United States in quest of a fortune. They invested in a Wyoming oil well which failed to pan out. In October, 1903, they visited Colorado Springs, Colo., looking for Jobs. After failing to find employment at Cripple Creek or on a ranch, they accepted places in the freight department of the North ern Pacific railroad at St. Paul, where they earned $60 a month each. Their father owns a large block of stock in the Northern Pacific railroad, which the two sons will some day inherit. "Mother fully approves our plan to marry American girls and become citizens of the United States," said Ar thur Paget, "and we have purchased a ranch of 2,500 acres near Los Angeles, and will raise apples. Darcey Van j Bocken, of Los Angeles, is associated with us. We have traveled through America several times, and we decid ed there was nothing which would please us better than farming." Sir Arthur Henry Paget was de sirous that the twin brothers, who were graduated from Oxford, should become officers in the British army, as their elder brother, Bertie Paget, who is a captain in an Indian regiment. Members of the fighting family of the Pagets, whose ancestors, the first marquis of Angeesey, won his marquis-ate on the field of Waterloo, have held high place in British society. King Ed ward VII who, as prince of Wales, at tended the wedding of Sir Arthur and Lady Paget in London, in 1878, always was most gracious to them. Sir Ar thur won his baronetcy in the Soudan war. "Mother is in the best Xf health now," Reginald Paget said, when questioned as to Lady Paget's health. ' She has promised to visit us in our new home in the autumn." Both the brothers were enthusiastic over the idea of becoming real ranch men and they wanted to make it clear they intended to work as hard as any of the men whom they will employ. Further than to say they intended to marry American girls, the two broth ers would not discuss their future plans In this direction. While in New York with Lady Paget last year the young men were entertained a great deal. Lady Paget, who owns considerable property in New York, was Miss Minnie Stevens, daughter of the late Paran Stevens of New York. ' A Carnival ef Dwarf. Czar Peter of Russia celebrated a marriage of dwarfs with great parade In 1710. Dwarfs of both sexes within 200 miles were commanded to repair to tbe capital.

R, SULL1VAU GAVE TO ELECTJLORIMEB Kohlsaat Si id National Democratic Chairman Helped , Collect Slush Fund.

Washington, June 24. Publisher Kohlsaat, of the Chicago Record-Herald told the senate committee that he had been told that Roger Sullivan, Democratic national chairman from Illinois was one who helped to collect . the alleged hundred thousand doUar slush fund to elect Lortmer, His statement created quite a sensation. Kohlsaat said he had been a resident of Chicago for 46 years and had been to some extent interested in politics for a long time although his paper was independent. ; Nationally he was a Republican, locally he said be supported the best man. That brought him into controversy with local leaders. For 20 years he had opposed Lorlmer, he said. "Why have you opposed Lortmer?" asked Attorney Marble. "It is because of his dual life," replied the witness. "I greatly admire his private life and his domestic virtues," continued Kohlsaat "but what I am opposed to, is Lorlmerlsm."' Kolhsaat went on to say that after Lorimer was elected U. S. senator, he decided to wipe out his past He never had any personal feeling against Lorimer, it was all political and he wanted to give Lorimer another chance. Then there came charges In connection with his election. "He told the committee he had met C. S. Funk, general manager of the International Harvester company on the street one day. They stepped in to a doorway and in some way the elec tion of Lorimer came up. Funk remarked that he knew money had been used in the election, Kohlsaat asked horn how he knew and getting the pledge of the witness not to connect his name with it, Funk told him he had met Edward Hines, who said that as we decided during the closing days of the state senate to put Lorimer over, that it took $100,000 to do it; that they did not have to go around and; raise the money; that a few of them underwrote it, and that now they were seeing a few people to ask them to partly reimburse them for , the money they had spent to elect Lorimer. i Funk said that Hines had told him that Edward Tilden was interested in a contribution to the fund. "What other n times were mention ed?" asked Marble. Korlsaat caused a murmur of surprise when he declared another name was that of Roger Sullivan, the national committeeman for Illinois and a very influential politician. . r. :"V: In the extension of Japanese electric licht and lrtrlo. rnllwnv nlanta Am.' erican companies have been getting big orders.
