Player Ford of Connersville wrs nasty in his talk to the umps. GooiSnan turned on his heel, his cap doffed, and Ford recognized that a little of the Ire of the umps' hair had been transposed to his eyes. Goodman's crtters were "Off the field." Ford tried to bluff it through and refused to go, .whereupon the sheriff was called from !iehind the scenes.

POTATO FAMINE UDW Murphies Are Very Dear in Wayne County. Already the people of Wayne county, as in other sections of Indiana, are beginning to feel the effects of the potato shortage. The prevailing drought has done its work well and where a grower formerly could go out to bis patch and grabble enough from one hill for a meal for his family,' It is now necessary to take an hour off and dig a row. Even the nthe product is "Bmall potatoes and few in a hill," of a necessity the price has gone toaring and most of us pay from 60 to 80 cents a peck for the tubers. All of this means that the coming fall and winter will probably see potatoes higher than for any time recently too expensive, perhaps for many families. Is there a substitute? Potatoes are about 80 per cent fluid and the rest starchy matter. Whether cooked with the "Jackets on," baked, roasted, mashed or what not, the "Murphies" are "filling," to say the least. They balance the usual diet of the ordinary man's table, and they r.re used every day in the year and in some families at every meal. So it will be Been that the potato shortage will work hardship on most of us and a substitute will be difficult to find. One authority says that rice comes nearer filling the place of the potato than any other vegetable. Americans eat very little rice in comparison with other countries, but when rightly cooked and prepared it is decidedly a palatable dish. Then rice is comparatively cheap in price and there is seldom, if ever, a failure in the crop.

SHOWS BENEFIT OF STATE HICAMPMEIIT John Markley Compiles Figures of Interest to Local Business Men.

Statistical information relative to the state encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic, which was held here in May, has just been compiled by Adjutant John A. Markley of Sol Meredith Post of this city, in the interests of the Young Men's Business Club and business men generally to show the benefit the city derived from an advertising standpoint, by the state encampment. The report proves what all have admitted that the expense of holding the encampment here was much less than the financial return. The total number of organizations represented according to the register, was 3414 including regiments of nearly every state in the union at the time of the civil war. 'Delegations from 248 cities and towns in Indiana, which means practically every city and town having a G. A. It. post, attended. There were fiftyfive county seats in the state represented by Civil War veterans, according to the records. Members of seventeen Ohio posts were present, showing that it was not altogether a state encampment. In addition to the state G. A. R. posts there were three infantry, four cavalry and two artillery regiments of the United States regular Army represented in attendance at the May encampment. Many of the veterans attending the meeting while members of Indiana posts, never saw service in the Indiana regiments. Mr. Markley's statistical report concerning the number of organizations represented at the encampment is of interest. Indiana JInfantry regiments, 125; cavalry regiments, 14; artillery, 20 batteries.

TO EXP0SE POLICE Reformed Desperado Bills Kokomo to His Intent. KOKOMO, Ind.. Aug. 21. Handbills scattered about the streets of Kokomo announce that on next Wednesday evening in the courthouse square, Peter Hostetter "will expose the Kokomo police department, the park board and the hypocritical reformers of Kokomo.' Hostetter, who poses as a reformed desperado, returned to Kokomo last spring after an absence of several years In California. Before coming back he wrote letters to acquaintances here confessing numerous thefts and other depredations while in Kokomo. He declared he had reformed, had joined church and on his return would lead an upright life. Since his arrival he has been living near the city park. Little was heard of him until July 4, when he was injured by the accidental discharge of a cannon, from which the park employes were drawing a load that had been placed in it by boys. Hostetter was badly burned, but not permanently injury. The city t administration has refused to pay him damages. He has not revealed to any one the character of the charges he is going to make, but asserts that he is in possession of information that will surprise the people of Kokomo when they hear it. The police department will not interfere with the pnblic meeting. Its members say they are willing that he tell everything he knows. NEW CONGRESSMAN HEARD THE APPLAUSE WASHINGTON, Aug. 2L Representative Littlepage of West Virginia, who came into public notice at the be ginning of the session through the medium of his highly eulogistic autobiography in the Congressional Directory, is again in the limelight. Mr. Littlepage, who wrote that "Mr. Littlepage works hard, late and early as a Congressman, and is reflecting credit on the country," is a Democrat, and is serving his first term in the House. He was brought to public notice in the House by Representative Mann of Illinois, the minority leader. Mr. Mann directed the attention of the House to a speech .of Mr. Littlepage, which appeared in the Congressional Record. He pointed out that the West Virginia member had not actually delivered the speech, but had inserted it in the Record under "The leave to print" rule. "And yet," said Mr. Mann, "the word 'Applause' appears in this speech fourteen times, and the words 'Great applause' once. Mr. Mann moved that the words "Applause and "Great applause be stricken from the speech. "What page Is that on?" asked Representative Clark of Florida. "Littlepage, exclaimed Representative Baker of California. Representative v Henry of Texas, moved that the matter be referred to the Committee on Printing for appropriate action. The House by a record vote sustained the motion of Mr. Henry. So It Professor I tell yon tbe phonograph Is a great Invention. Popfl Yes; it peaks for itself.

TEARS MOVED MAYOR And He Gives Woman "One More Chance.'

After pleading guilty to the charge of public intoxication in police court Monday morning, Kola Wilkins, who was arrested Saturday afternoon by patrolman Lawler, made a tearful plea for leniency. She promised to leave the city providing the mayor would release her. Mayor Zimmerman did so, suspending the sentence of $5 and costs and five days in the Home of the Friendless. She declared that she would leave Richmond behind her within three hours. Mrs. Wilkins was arrested on South A strret 'carrying a big load of wet goods. She entered a residence at South Fifteenth and A streets and informing the woman of the house that she was ill asked for some whisky. It was given her by the woman in the house who was not aware that Mrs. Wilkins was drunk. In explaining her act to Mayor Zim merman she 6aid that her father had threatened to kill her boy and that in company with her son, she had left her father's home. Other troubles arising caused her to make an attempt to "drown her sorrows.". The mayor declared that her son had telephoned him Saturday, saying that he had taken care of his mother, but that it was impossible to keep her from using intoxicating liquors. He told the mayor to have her arrested and to do as he thought best, Charles Kelley, 13 North Thirteenth street, charged with assault and battery on Ethel Smith was released after a conference with the prosecuting witness, the mayor and the prosecutor. It is believed that Kelley has attacks of temporary insanity.

Joe Frush, an Italian was also released. Frish was arrested at the north end C. & O. depot by Patrolman Yingling on suspicion. Power ef an Air Brake. Some idea of the power of an air brake may be gained from the following facts: It takes a powerful locomotive drawing a train of ten passenger cars a distance of about five miles to reach a speed of sixty miles an hour on a straight and level track. The brakes will stop the same train from a speed of CO miles an hour in 700 feet. Roughly it may be stated that a train may be stopped by the brakes in about 3 per cent of the distance that must be covered to give It Its speed. Exchange. D

DROP r.1 Reciprocity Now Recognized as the Issue in Canadian Elections. TORONTO. Ont.. Aug. 21. The election campaign has gained full headway throughout Ontario, the great industrial province of Canada, by the visit of Sir Wilfred" Laurier. the premier, and R. L. Borden, the opposition leader. On all sides it is now recognized that reciprocity is the issue. Even Mr. Borden has declined to make his campaign an attack on the fifteen years' record of the government. Instead of muckraking he will win or lose on the reciprocity issue alone. Although the election was sprung suddenly, more than 100 conventions were held last week and rival candidates named in nearly every constituency. ' One Race a Battle Royal. The Hon. William Patterson, minister of customs, one of the commissioners who negotiated the reciprocity agreement with Washington, has been renominated in Brant. Although he has held the seat for forty years, a special effort will be made by the Conservatives to defeat him.,, J. 11. Fisher, member of the Ontario legislature, has resigned his seat and will run against the minister of customs. He is acknowledged to be a strong man, and the race will be a battle royal. -Make Much of Annexation Talk. The annexation speeches in the United States congress are being made the most of by the Conservative party, and hundreds of thousands of pamphlets containing ; extracts therefrom have been distributed in sections of the province settled by United Empire loyalists and recent comers from England. The flag is also being waved everywhere as a Btlmulus to loyalist sentiment. The Liberal speakers declare the talk of annexation is simply beneath the attention of serious people and maintain it will have no effect in influencing voters. , A British Treasure. In the Jewel house ef tha TAoiwer of London, the place where the crown and other royal Insignia are kept, there is a book bound throughout in gold, even to the wires of tha hinges.
