It observes: "Willie and Mrs. Harris will be away when you come. Holly gee, we can have a fine time. Oh say, dear, if I was up there I'd take a hot whiskey and a dutch cock tail. Oh say wouldn't it be fine. Oh say Pete I have a box of kisses and a barrel of hugs saved up for you. You better come and get them though or I'll give 'em to someone else." There were letters written in German and In Russian, from girls in Ottumwa, Iowa and Massachusetts towns. When In Cincinnati. The following was printed In the Cincinnati Enquirer, today: Chief Jackson received a letter yesterday from Richmond, Ind., stating that Peter Apkins, who figured in a scene at the Rurckhauser Hotel, at the corner of Third and Central avenues, on May 28, is under arrest there, charged with bigamy and forgery. Apkins came to Cincinnati with his bride, who was Miss Elizabeth Young, of Nlcklasvllle, Ky., and they engaged rooms at the hotel above-mentioned. At midnight the guests were aroused by the ncrcams of the youni? woman. and a patrol wagon and squad of policemen were sent to the place to investigate the trouble. They were refused admittance to the rooms occu'pied by Apkins and his bride, but by climbing up a lire escape gained entrance to the place and found the young bride threatening to kill herself by Jumping from the window. The groom had disappeared. Her mind seemed to be affected and she was removed to the Cincinnati Hospital, and later taken to Grandview Sanitarium. The young woman was later taken from the sanitarium by her relatives, who had been notified by Apkins before he left the city. It was found that her mind had never been affeced, but she had been worrying over the actions of her husband. While at the city hospital she charged her husband with the theft of her money and jewerly. Chief Jackson's information is that Apkins has been identified as the man who, three days prior to the Cincinnati escapade, married MrB. Bertha "Kohler. of Richmond, and, it is charged abandoned her in Paris, III. He is also -charged with forging several checks .in Richmond.

ONLY ONE OF HIS KIND. ' Ths Reason ths Judge Refused to Hang on to the Horse. ' Dnrinjr the second Cleveland cum- ' paign Colonel John P. Irish, the golden tongned orator, and Judge Klnne of Waterloo, la., the man with lungs of brass, were stamping Iowa in behalf of the Democratic candidate. They were driving la a boggy on the road to Sidney, a young city in the southwestern part of the state, when they came to a fork of the road where there was no sign board. Which torn to take was a question, as they bad barely time to make the town anyway. "There's a farmhouse over there a bit Ton sit still, and I'll go over and , ask questions,- said Irish, and. cllmb- . In out. he started for the desired Information. Be got it and on his re- . turn saw the horse, evidently frightened at something, tearing down the . road at runaway speed. Instead of trying to stop the horse. Judge Klnne dropped the reins, climbed over the 'seat and dropped off the back of the buggy Into the road. When Irish caught up to him the Judge was busily dusting himself off after his roll in the roadway, not in the least disfigured by his acrobatic tunt "You're on the right fork of the road, 11 right. Judge, but why didn't you hang on to the horse?" asked Irish, laughing heartily. "Why didn't I hang on to him?" rumbled Klnne in his deep subceliar Tolce. Til tell you why I didn't, my Christian friend. There's lots of horses In this world, but there is but one Judge Klnne." Los Angeles Times.

STATE HEWS BRIEFS

WHAT RECORD IS La" Porte, Ind., July 21. A statement on the operation of the Proctor law shows that since the law became valid, the latter part of February, seventy-one and ninety-two counties of Indiana were dry, all but one of them having voted against license under the county option law. Sixty-five of the ninety-five incorporated cities were also dry. Twenty-nine cities which had been dry voted for the return of the licensed saloon. Fifteen cities became wet at the expiration of two yoars from the time when they were voted dry under county option. At the present time there are seventy-three cities which have chosen the license system. Fourteen cities which were dry under the county option law again voted against license. Seven cities are still dry under county option, the two-year period for which they were voted dry not having expired. Five of the cities which have voted for license under hot new law are still dry through the action of the county commissioners, nnd through the operation of the remontsrance law. In Kokomo, Marion and Union City, cases involving the result of the elections now are pending in the courts, and probably will not be decided until fall.

SALOONS BLAMED

Evansville, Ind., July 21. Henry King, of Huntington, Ind., today sued Fcven saloon-keepers of that town for $21,500 judgment. He alleges they sold his son liquor, and that whilethe boy was intoxicated, he was struck by a train and killed.

CHURCH IN A DAY

Kokomo, Ind., July 21. A tabernacle for the newly organized Disciples congregation of Greentown was built yesterday, the construction beginning at 6 o'clock this morning. The steeple was finished at sunset this evening. The materials had been made ready, and a small army of volunteer workmen lost no time in erecting the building. Services will be held in the new structure Sunday. The congregation was organized a week ago.

TO REDUCE PRICES

South Bend, Ind., July 21. As a result of the establishment of a public market in South Bend, it is expected that the high cost of farm products and poultry will be greatly reduced. The market will be In the heart of the city. Of late years it has been complained that the local grocers and butchers' association was a trust, and that a scale of prices was fixed at the regular meeting of th3 organization. So far however, it has not been possible to prove the existence of a conspiracy The same conditions are declared to be in force at Mishawaka. The destruction of the old mission church at Bertrand, seven miles north of South Bend, a few days ago, marked the passing of the last building in the old town. The church, famous for its association, and for the part it played in the founding of Notre Dame University, and St. Mary's Academy, stood on the bank of the St. Joseph River, in a grove of magnificent oaks, empty and deserted for years. It was torn down by order of the authorities ,of the Roman Catholic church, who feared the structure might collapse and possibly kill some of the many persons attracted to it by the legends which for years have been connected with it.

FRIENDS BACKING A HEW STATE LAW Supporting Measure Preventing Using "Quaker" as a Trade Name.

Indianapolis, July 21. The Indiana and the western yearly meetings of

the Society of Friends were directly responsible for the passage of a bill by the recent Indiana legislature making It unlawful for church names to be commercialized through the use of suc h names as brands for food or other products. The Rev. Morton C. Pearson, pastor of the First Friends' church, Indianapolis, says a misleading allegation has been made in the complaint Sled in federal court, by the Quaker Oats Co.a New Jersey corporation, against Robert Reed Irwin, a deputy prosecutor of Greene county, to prevent him from acting under the new law and nterfering. with the sale of Quaker oats in Greene county. The company alleges that the use of the word "Quaker" by the company as its corporate name and the name of its products has been "approved and confirmed" by members of the society of Friends. Mr. Pearsons says that the use of the word "Quaker" by this company or any other Individual or corporation for commercial purposes is strongly objected to by members of the Society of Friends. Friends May Prosecute. "We object so strongly to the use of the word for commercial purposes," said Mr. Pearson, "that a proposition will probably be carried at the next yearly meeting of Indiana Friends for voting money for the prosecution of firms that use the word 'Quaker' in the sale of their products. The new law, which I helped to get through, was not directed against the Quaker Oats Company any more than against any other company which is offending in this way. One of the things which we objected to most strongly was the use of the term 'Old Quaker Whisky,' as the name of a brand of whisky. "The bill was drawn by Wilson S. Doan an Indianapolis attorney, under the direction of committees appointed for the purpose by the Indiana yearly meeting of Friends at Richmond and the western yearly meeting of Friends at Plainfield. These committees were authorized to take active steps in getting such a law through and having it enforced. "The contention that the word 'Qua

ker is not the recognized or authoriz-'

ed name of the Society of Friends Is not well founded. While the word 'Quaker' Is not the corporate or legal title, members of the Society of

Friends are commonly known as Qua- j kers and the denomination is called 1 'Quaker more than it is called 'Socie-j

ty of Friends. The word "Quaker is 1

officially used in the literature of the Society of Friends. Explanation by Doan. Mr. Doan, who drafted the bill which which was introduced by Representa

tive Carter, of Plainfield, says the statute prohibits persons from using "the distinguishing part of the name of any church or religious organization as the distinguishing part of any trade name or trade-mark on certain merchandise," and is so worded as to prohibit the use of the name by which a church or religious organization is commonly known. This, he said, would make the use of the word "Quaker" on merchandise illegal under this statute. Mr. Doan says this statute is in line with the Indiana law which prohibits the use of the names or emblems of secret orders by persons not authorized to use them.
