IDS HIKED FOR CJGRESSMAII friends of Prominent Men Are Urging Them to Be Candidates.

The political bug It working industriously In tbe Sixth Congressional district. Although then yet three conventions to be held before tbe Congressional convention, which probably will be held In this city, the names of a number of prominent men In tbe Sixth District are being mentioned In connection with the Republican nomination for Congresaman. Among those who are said to have aspirations towards securing tbe nomination are Judge Forkner, of New Castle; Cbarlea Jordan, secretary of the Richmond Commercial club; Will Hough, of Greenfield; Fred Bowers, of Connersville; Klmer Bassett, of Shelbyrllle, former district chairman, and a Franklin county man. None of these men have made any statement announcing tbelr candidacy for the nomination, although friends of each have talked wih them concerning the subject and it is -not Improbable that the name of each will be placed before the convention.

Under great stress- of excitement be occasionally slipped the eye out for a moment, rubbed It violently on bla coat sleeve, then us rabidly replaced It This he did there in the counell but; utterly forgetful of bla audience, and before a out could say the Formosan equivalent of "Jack Robinson." .The chiefs paled, stiffened, shuddered with fright One with more presence of mind than bis fellows called for a pen. I "Yes. quick, a pen!" the word passed from noutn to mouth.
