WHAT'S THE USE OF OWHlfiG PROPERTY

After You Get It You Are Informed that You Haven't Any Rights that the City or the Neighbors Are Bound to Respect. Trees Again.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. Haven't people any right to their own property? Or shall the man acrops the street or down the block dictate what shall or shall not be done on the former's private demesne. Locally it seems that the man over the way can tell the property owner opposite just "where to get off." So they say out Reeveston way. People who have bought lots in the Reeves addition state that the city tells them they have no right whatever to say what may be done with the trees on their lots. One said that she had a notice that there would be a meeting to protest against the action at ten o'clock one morning. At a quarter of ten she met some one who had been at the appointed place of meeting and that the latter was all over and officialdom said that Bince there was no one to protest action would be taken as indicated. This has happened before here in town when meetings for protest have been arranged. People would reach there at the hour appointed and be told that the meeting had been held that they had mistaken the time that it was all over and done with now and too late. This property owner stated that she paid one hundred dollars more for the lot in the Reeves addition in order to get the trees. That five of these trees would be cut down to make the sidewalk "uniform." That what she wanted was the trees. That she wouldn't have bought the lot but for the trees. That she didn't want to wait fifty years for trees that they would plant to grow to a place where the latter would be enjoyable and decorative. She stated that the city said they had no right to say a word as to what should be done about the street because they had not yet built on the lot. But the people across the street could have anything done they wanted done with this woman's lot. If all this is true it is outrageous enough. Talk not about Czarism. Don't denounce conditions in Russia. Why lambast effete European governments?' Why not cast an eye over Richmond, Indiana, and see if Czarism isn't about as rampant here as it is in the frozen north or the Asiatic steppes. By the time the city and the neighbora have platted Reeveston the thing that was supposed to make this estate attractive for inclusion within the municipal boundaries will have been entirely destroyed. What matter if the trees, as said before, are soft maples? They are trees that have attained maturity and are a decorative asset. What if the street will not be "uniform?" Why not deviate a little from the mathematical line and make a decorative detour. There is no law or reason in heaven or earth why these trees shouldn't be preserved. It is merely arbitrary action on the part of city officials and the officious meddling of people who don't own the lots. On a certain lot several fine trees were cut down in order to make a straight line. When the property owner, a widow, protested, she was told that she would have to submit to "improvements." She asked why the factory which projected beyond the line of her lot, after it was cut down by the city, wasn't made also to conform to the city improvements and shave the end of its building off to make a straight line with her lot. She was given the shrug of the shoulder, the lift of the eye.

Oh, that'B different, said Mr. Official. But why is It different? Easy explained. The property owner whose trees were cut down was a widow without any civic rights. The factory was owned by a corporation that did have civic rights both in the aggregate and individually. The corporation couldn't be made to get off the line. And wasn't asked. This is the sort of thing that makes women want to possess the franchise. Just as long as they don't have it they will be officially imposed upon. But the blind policy of the city with reference to the trees in Reeveston seems inexplicable. Not so inexplicable either. But strange on its face. Here was a beautiful estate, whose duplicate cannot be found in eastern Indiana. The cry was that the trees and contours of the ground would, could and should be preserved when its inclusion in the city was accomplished. On the strength of this people who wanted trees bought lots. As soon as the lots were bought the owners were informed that all trees would be cut down that interfered with a straight line. That they had no right of protest because they were not yet living on the lots. Certainly the course of official procedure is full of tangents and little detours round the corner. But the fact remains that the destruction of these trees for the tradition of a straight line of sidewalk is a crime against the landscape and the property owners which should not go unnoted. NOTICE!

Of the unpleasant drinking customs of certain nations In New Guinea Walter Goodfellow writes: "We did not find the people down by the coast nearly so tractable or companionable as those at the headwaters of the river. They were also much more quarrelsome among themselves. They tap a species of sugar palm up the river and make fermented drink out of it On this they get fearfully intoxicated, and wild orgies take place all day. Parties of them would go off in canoes and sit under the palms from which the drink was obtained. In the morning they would return extremely drunk, and fights used to be the result. "Sometimes these fights lasted for two days at a time. In our vicinity they more often thtn not took place at night. The natives then made such an indescribable din with their howling and their noises that we could not sleep at our base camp. Spears and showers of arrows were discharged In all directions, and one could hear the sound of their axes dealing blows on the bodies of the combatants. "After a time the women would join In the fray, and their shrill voices added to the babel, making the noise greater than ever. When they became involved in the fights they seemed to be worse than the men. The cries were not like sounds emitted by human beings, but rather like the cries of animals." Chicago News. Charles Elliott, who was recently appointed principal of Hong-Kong University, speaks twenty-three languages. But his friends remind him that there was Elihu Burritt, the "learned blacksmith" of Connecticut, who could speak sixty.

DUBLIN III DANGER FROM FIRE SUNDAY Hoffman Business Block Practically Destroyed Cause Not Known.

(Palladium Special) DUBLIN, Ind., April 22. Fire of an unknown origin nearly destroyed the Huffman building on West Main street late Saturday night, and for a time threatened other buildings in that vicinity. The exact amount of dam age is not known, but the entire in-' terior of the building was gutted, the shell of the building alone remaining standing. The wind was blowing strongly and the flames from the burning Huffman building licked the east walls of the residence of Dr. C. E. McKee on the west and for some time it appeared as if the physician's resMence was also doomed. All household goods in the upper story of the McKee residence were removed when it was Been that this building might also be destroyed. However, by hard and persistent work the fire was kept from spreading either to the west or to the east. The fire was first discovered about twelve o'clock by Fred Hayes and Frank Sharp, who were in the latter's barber shop, a short distance west of the building. Hayes started to leave the barber shop and seeing smoke coming from the Huffman building, which was occupied by Park Lambertson, as a barber shop, called to Shank and both started an investigation. When it was ascertained that the building was afire the alarm was given. The small water plant, recently installed by B. Li. Hiatt, who lives near the building, and the assistance given by a large number of the residents, saved that part of the town from seeming destruction. The Huffman building was one of the oldest in this town. The lower floor was used for a barber shop and the upper as a pool room. Contradicting a Proverb.

MAKES OUT PAPERS IN DAMAGE APPEAL Court Reporter Holiday started this morning to make a transcript of all testimony in the case of Frank Morgan versus the Pennsylvania railroad company, in order that the testimony in the case could be used in the appeal which the defendant has taken. The jury which heard the case in the Wayne circuit court awarded the plaintiff damages to the amount of $10,000. However, a motion for a new trial was made and Judge Fox overruled the motion on the condition that the plaintiff would agree to having the amount of damages cut to $7,000. This was agreed upon and an appeal was taken. Reporter Holiday says that the transcript of this case will cover. at least 700 typewritten pages.

An old soldier, released from coffee at 72, recovered his health and tells about it as follows: "I stuck to coffee for years although it knifed me again and again." (Tea Is just as harmful as coffee because it contains caffeine the same drug found in coffee.) "About eight years ago, I was taken with a very severe attack of malarial fever. I would apparently recover and start about by usual work only to suffer a relapse. After this had been repeated several times during the year I was again violently ill. "The Doctor said he had carefully studied my case and it was either 'quit coffee or die,' advising me to take Postum in its place. "I had always thought coffee one of my dearest friends, and especially when sick, and I was very much taken back by the Doctor's decision for I hadn't suspected the coffee I drank could possibly cause my troubles. "I thought it over a few minutes and finally told the Doctor I would make the change. Postum was pro cured for me the same day and made according to directions. Well, I liked it and stuck to it and since then I have been a new man. "The change in health began in a few days and surprised me, and now, although I am seventy-two years of age, I do lots of hard work and for the past month have been teaming, driving sixteen miles a day, besides loading and unloading the wagon. That's what Postum In place of coffee has done for me. I now like the Postum as well as I did coffee." Look for the little book, "The Road to Wellville," In pkgs. - nothing added. instantly.
