CURIOUS BITS OF HISTORY THE ORIGIN OF TAMMANY. By A. W. MACY. The Society of Tammany, or Columbian Order, was formed In New York city In 1789, and hat been a power in city, state and national politic ever since. Its primary object was to offset the Influence of the Society of Cincinnati. The latter waa formed by the surviving officers of the Revolution, and as Its constitution provided that its membership should be perpetuated by the eldest sons of members, It was regarded by many as too aristocratic in its tendencies. The Society of Tammany profesaed to be far more democratic In its character. It took its name from a noted chief of the Delaware Indians. Its chief founder was William Mosney, a native-born American of Irish extraction. The society Is nominally a charitable association, fraternal in its nature, and quite distinct from the general committee of the Tammany Democracy. It takes a very prominent part In politics, nevertheless. It claims to have outlived fourteen national parties. Aaron Burr was a prominent member of Tammany In its earlier years. Copyright. 1911, by Joseph B. Bowles.)

A Suggestion.

The officials of the T. H. I. & E. Traction company, the benevolent proprietors of the near street car system of this city, have been assuring the citizens of Richmond that there will soon be an Improvement in the equipment of the local system. Assuming that these assurances were given without said officials having had their fingers crossed, we would suggest that said improvements could be inaugurated when our odd little winter cars are placed in drydock for the warm weather season by placing on the streets a few new summer cars. Some of the summer cars which have been operated in Richmond the past few years are still satisfactory and serviceable, but the majority of them are relics of the Mexican war period. These cars should be retired on pensions and succeeded by modern cars. In conclusion we would again remind the T. H. I. & E. that its local street car system has not grown with the city. There is a need for more lines, especially one which will tap the southeastern section of the city. An ideal line for that part of Richmond would extend along South E street from Eighth street to Twentieth street, thence north to Main street.

Richmond's Example.

It has often been Richmond's good fortune to set worthy examples for its sister cities of Indiana in matters of public welfare, but the good Panic Proof City has never set a better example to the state at large than the project it has planned for Friday of this week Arbor Day, when the children of both the public and parochial schools will plant twenty-five hundred American Elm trees, the gift of a local business house. America today has no more important question to deal with than the conservation of its timber supply. Each year sees the startling decrease In the number of trees, through the work of man and the ravages of forest fires, and today the American people are confronted with the ominous prospect of a total exhaustion of their timber. One of the first men to realize this fact was Theodore Roosevelt, who started the conservation movement under the personal charge of Gifford Pinchot. The American people were quick to see the wisdom of Roosevelt's action and the conservation movements spread rapidly throughout the country. The work the school children of Richmond will do Friday, marks the most important step in the conservation movement in Indiana and has received the enthusiastic support of the Indiana Forestry Association. To show how important that excellent organization views the Richmond movement it has detailed two of its most active and able members to be in Richmond Arbor Day, to witness the work of the school children and to tell the citizens of the vital necessity of conserving our trees. Richmond's two distinguished guests will be former Vice President Charles Warren Fairbanks and President Coulter of Purdue University. The latest example in public welfare set by Richmond has not been lost on the state. Prof. John F. Thompson of the Richmond high school, primarily responsible for the inauguration of the local conservation movement, has received inquiries on Richmond's tree planting project from Muncie, New Castle, Liberty and other cities and towns in eastern Indiana, who have Informed him they intend to follow in Richmond's footsteps.

TESTING AN OCTOPUS. The Power of This Repulsive Creature Much Overrated. There have been made abroad experiments with an octopus, in a specially devised tank of sea water, in order to test the truth of the many stories told of monster cephalopoda dragging human victims to the sea bottom, says Harper's Weekly. In the tank with the octopus there was placed a "dummy" of the same specific gravity as a man, and this was baited with a crab. Attracted by this tempting morsel, the octopus made for the figure, seized it in its powerful arms and tried to drag it under water without success. It then urged its body toward the edge of the tank, and. holding the glass with some of its arms, It dragged its prey beneath the surface and crushed the crab shell with its powerful Jaws. It is believed that these experiments afford proof that the octopus can only drag its victims far below the water near rocks to which It can attach its suckers. There is one spot in the bay of Naples where these creatures attain a large size, and now and then a fisherman is reported missing. It is thought that such disappearances are due to the unfortunate man being caught by the leg by a concealed octopus and dragged under water. In the case of such a repulsive and powerful creature as the octopus it is difficult to separate fact from fiction. Make our office your down town headquarters; leave your packages while shopping.

A VACATION IN BED.

Twenty-four Hours' Sleep Versus a Week's Holiday. If you want to obtain complete rest and recuperation equal to a week's vacation in minimum time sleep the clock around twice is the advice of a physician who holds a high place in medical circles in England. "To spend twenty-four hours in bed," he said to a friend, "instead of rushing away for a few hours' change of scene when you are run down physically and mentally, is worth a week's holiday. The night before, having gone to a theater to take the mind off worries and having supped wisely and well, Instructions should be given that the morning calling shall be omitted. "Then sleep. On waking turn over and sleep again. On waking again ring for some hot milk. Drink it and sleep again and keep on sleeping. Have nothing in the Intervals more substantial than soup. Do not read. Keep the eyes shut constantly. Have a warm bath In the evening and sleep again. "When you are tired of sleeping sleep again for the night. Nothing calms the nerves more than resting the eyes." New York Herald. 1 he question nas Been raised in France whether glycerin can be regarded as a food material, inasmuch as it enters into the composition of certain candy and similar foodstuffs for consumption.
