GRAND JURY'S REPORT FILED; WORKPERFECT
In Final Report to Judge Fox This Morning Investigators Make a Large Number of Recommendations. (Continued from Pagre one) time more light may be thrown on this somewhat mysterious crime. On Doyle Case. "Relative to the crime of the illegal marriage examined into by this jury, we wish to say that greater diligence on the part of county clerks in granting marriage licenses and on the part of those who solemnize marriages, would prevent the consummation of such crimes as this. This jury cannot help but feel, that Samuel K. Morgan, the Justice of Peace who performed the marriage ceremony of Georgianna Doyle, did then and there knowingly encourage the . commission of this crime, in turning his back to the parties who were to make the affidavit to the age of the child and did not therefore, know who signed the said affidavit. "We visited the county infirmary, and ' examined into the general management of the institution. Food supplies and clothing seemed to be adequate. Heat and water supply seemed to be adequate. The means of lighting the several wards are deemed wholly inadequate and unsafe, and could be greatly improved by securing electric lighting through suitable and economic means. "We recommend that the farm should maintain enough milk cows to supply the institution with both milk and butter and enough live stock should be raised to supply it with both fresh and salt meats; that the superintendent employ competent farm help and give more diligence to seeing that farm work is actually and well performed, and that horses and all other animals be regularly and properly cared for; that the superintendent be urged to give more time and diligence to the actual supervision of both institution and farm. "In a general 'way, this jury finds, and believes that there has been an undue laxness for the number of years in the enforcement of the criminal laws of the county, and that said prosecutors have been too indifferent to their duty and to both state and the people. As To Saloon. "We would commend the present prosecutor for his present courageous stand for law observance throughout the county, and we urge him, and have his assurance that he will advise with the several dealers of liquors, tobacco and cigarets throughout the county, and admonish them that if they persist in these violations of the law they do so at their own peril. "We further recommend as highly subservient of the morals, the honesty and the general manhood of our young men, the degrading and unbusinesslike annexes to saloons, commonly called card rooms, where men play for stakes in form of credits which are redeemable for cash or liquor. We would inveigh against such business concerns that must sustain themselves through such demoralizing methods. Granted that men desire some social pleasure and relaxation from their daily drudgery, we are nevertheless, confronted with the fact that the cream of this practice is "Hell." STAGE HANDS. From tha Important Carpenter Down to tho Lowly "Grip." To. the outsider the term stage hand Is applied to every one that works behind the footlights except the players, but there Is quite an aristocratic line of demarcation. There are the stage carpenter and the assistant stage carpenter, who build scenery; there are the property man and the assistant property man. who make and shape all kinds of things out of papier macbe for properties and look after the furniture and decorations of the stage: there are the fly men, who manipulate the ropes at the top of tho theater, hoisting and lowering scenery and also raising and dropping the curtain. The natural habitat of these fly men is on platforms up in the flies, many feet above the stage, and when hot otherwise employed they have the disconcerting habit of audibly gossiping and playing cards. Then there are the electrician and his assistants, whose business It is to operate the lights. The humblest of the regular 6taff is the "grip." This man handles scenery and docs general utility work about the stage. When exigency demands the force Is added to from the roustabouts who usually infest the stage entrance, eking out a miserable existence through casual jobs and "sponging" upon the members of the regular staff.

"Madam," said Professor Prewins. the spokesman, offering ber a magnificent chrysanthemum of rare and lovely hne "madam, permit us to present this flower to yon as a token of our high regard." She clasped the splendid blossom in fcer lily hand. Breathlessly the committee awaited her response. "IIo beautiful It isf she answered. -What an exquisite shade of purple! I abould love to have a dress of that color." lr. Prewins nodded knowingly to the committee, as if to say. "I to'.d you so." The committee .winked at the pro feasor and whispered, "YJou win."

THE CUTE LITTLE THING
While She Remains Cute She Is Adorable But a Bas the Day When Time Cuts Loose Her Moorings and Swings Her Out Upon the Sea of Age.
BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. It's nice to be a cute little thing. While you are one. It doesn't last much over twenty, though. And then pity the fate of the cute little one. For it's fatal to be cute when you're out of your teens. This was given a local illustration the ether night when Miss Fritzi Scheff piroutted before the Gennett footlights. About fifteen years ago Scheff really was a cute little thing. She appeared with the Metropolitan Grand Opera Company and made a sensation. Was the pet of the company. Indulged and spoiled by everybody. Could give full reign to every caprice, every whim. Had a beautiful figure. Beautiful eyes and hair. An adorable complexion. Lovely voice. Now she merely gives the illusion of cuteness. It's a veil through which you see a hideous spectre approaching. The spectre of age. In five, ten years Scheff will be a pitiable spectacle. That is, if she still tries to be cute. It's too bad a woman as she should ever get old. Her charm is essentially that of youth. It is made hp of the immaturities, the whimsies, the vagaries, the allurements of the spring-time of life. And age to such a woman is worse than the thumb-screw. No hades will ever hold blacker horrors for Scheff than comfortable, stodgy middle age. When her waist-line is no longer intact. When the beautiful flat back will begin to curve when presented in pro- j file. ' When her "little ways" will be little S ways no longer but ridiculous mannerisms. The trouble with the cute little thing is that she never knows when it's all over. When the curtain has been rung down, the lights are out, the orchestra is oozing through the hole under the stage and the janitor is locking up the front entrance. She stands dazed on the deserted and desolate stage. Still feeling sure that there will be an encore. That she will be re-called. You can see 'em any day in the week without intervening footlights. Everybody has one within his ken. On his repertoire. They are marooned on the side streets and attending women's parties in the afternoons. For the cute little one is usually reduced to the last social ditch. From having been tapreed v p-?1'-masculinities in her salad days she has gone down the line to bridge aa euchre on alternating weeks, stock company matinees, college class days and other solaces for the unattached. She still bridles and looks coy, skips around and snickers in corners, rolls her eyes and fusses with her hair, babbles,, cuddles and pouts but she is only a caricature. A makeshift. Neither here nor there. Neither girl nor woman. Occupying a half and half position teetering toward the future and coquetting with the past, a sort of mongrel without any anchorage. A feminine derelict floating aimlessly about and never getting outside certain social zones. You've seen them, these chubby little women who used to be cute little things. Unable to realize that they are no longer cute. Merely fat. Who continue to dimple and gurgle and flirt. The writer saw one of them not long since. On the platform. For they are as apt as not to be found in that uncertain territory peoj pled by women who go out to lecture to women's clubs or take to social settlement work. What a boon has the woman's club whirlpool not been to the ennuied woman no longer able to exercise her feminine power over men. Jane Carlyle should have lived in this generation. She needed the present day activities of the sex as a vent for her restless and vivacious vagaries. WHAT CLEAN BLOOD MEANS. They used to accuse Dr. A. B. simpson, one of the famous physicians of Indiana, of having a cure-all because his great reputation was established largely on one prescription, the most effective alterative or blood-purifier known. "No," he would remark, "It will not cure consumption, nor typhoid, nor any one of a hundred common diseases. It simply purines the blood, but it does that very thoroughly" What are the symptoms of poisoned impure blood? They range all the way from the dreadful syphillis to a muddy complexion. They include inflammatory rheumatism, catarrh, scrof ula, eczema, erysipelas, pimples, boils, 1 running sores and a number of similar j afflictions. All these yielded readily ! to Dr. Simpson's treatment. And dur-j Ing the forty years this preparation has been on the market as Dr. A. B. ', Simpson's Vegetable Compound, it has 1 never failed in a single case. The very worst cases of syphillis have been cured as well as all the other blood diseases named above and the same compound has always given clear, clean complexions to those, otherwise in good health. It is sold at J1.00 a bottle at all
Idrug stores. (Advertisement) .
Jane Carlyle was fond of the attentions of men. Most women are. They may pretend they aren't. But it s a huge and monumental
bluff. i Jane Carlyle was not an exception. i She was, indeed, rather on the other 1 . . .. . . ... side or tne line, ui a iascinaung per-, sonanty or us son, sue nan auraceu manv of the other sex. i

For let no woman be fooled into the belief that her attraction for man is not largely of a material character. Men like the flesh. They care little for the soul. As physical charms faint and fade, men's ardour wanes. A woman makes a towering mistake if she ever thinks anything else. And women are hypnotized by too fixed a gaze on the vanishing line. Jane Carlyle, however, was canny. She said something to the effect is quoted as saying that it is the wise woman who realizes that her sex j charm has gone and rights about face to become man's friend, his repositor of confidences, his safe and sane guide,' his adviser, his mentor. That when she recognizes the arrival of the fated day, bows her head to the inevitable and reverses the wheel she may attain a sort of satisfaction impossible of comprehension to the woman still able to lure through, her physical charm. If women wish to retain any influence over men, says Jane Carlyle in effect, they will instantly capitulate to time and wrest such favors as still remain for them from his grasp. This is what the cute little thing never does. So she goes on trying to be something that has vanished as completely as the dew from the grass. She is still cuddling up when she should be patting on the back. Still pouting when she should be advising. For pouts, adorable in the cute lit tie thing, are frights later on. They only serve to accentuate dou ble chins and play up wrinkled necks WEDNESDAY OF LAST WEEK COLDEST DAY Wednesday was the coldest day of last week.
