STATE CHA Rep. Keegan Says Korbly Lobbied Against the Women's Eight-Hour Bill. LIQUOR BILL LOST But Only Because of a Fatal Mistake Made When It Went Through House. (National News Association) INDIANAPOLIS, March 8. Charges Involving Bernard Korbly, democratic Btate chairman, were made an ddenied during a spirited debate on the Gardner-Fleming bill limiting the hours of labor for women, which passed the house Friday afternoon, 60 to 25. It limits the working hours of women to ten a day or fifty-four a week. Representative Keegan, that radical advocate of labor legislation assailed the measure as an unfair compromise and simultaneously accused Chairman Korbly of being a paid lobbyist in behalf of the employing class. "When the senate killed the nine hour bill protecting women it declared to the world that women who work for wages in Indiana are men's slaves in industry, profit and prostitution," declared Keegan. "I am sorry the Democratic party will have to answer for the actions of the senate, which killed the bill under the leadership of the state chairman. The state chairman has so disgraced the party as to come here and lobby against womanhood for money." Rep. Thornton, announced himself as the mouthpiece of Chairman Korbly, declared the state chairman had never spoken either for or against any bill regulating the working hours of women. "Did he say he wasn't employed by the manufacturers association" retorted Keegan. The speaker rapped him to his seat. Later Chairman Korbly emphatically denied being employed to work against the womens bill, but admitted being employed as a lobbyist in other matters. The house passed Senator Grube's resolution calling for the appointment of a commission by the governor to investigate the hours and conditions of labor of women in Indiana. The four voting in the negative were Keegan, Friend, Carter and Dickinson. Gardner and Ensle said the bill was a big improvement over no legislation whatever. A frantic effort to remedy a fatal defect discovered in Senator Traylor'a bill reducing the number of holidays on which saloons must be closed resulted in a failure, and the chances are reckoned at 1 in 1,000 that the measure will become a law. On motion of Tingle the bill was recalled from senate to the house. Senator Fleming brought it over. Tingle moved reconsideration. The object was to insert the absent enacting clause. The vote was 45 to 38, and a two-thirds majority was required. Among those who voted no were Cravens, Crawford, Judkins, Kincaid, Reeves of Henry, Dibble, Justus, Reeves of Hancock, Davis of Carroll, Riley, Schaefer, Storen and Weidler. Crawford kept up the fight by moving that further action be indefinitely postponed but his motion was lost. Cravens raised the point of order that the enrolled bill already had reached the governor, but Speaker Cook said nix. On motion of Rep. Thornton it was made a special order for Monday. A coffin for it seemed probable. Everything considered the outlook for any legislation for the benefit of saloons did not appear very rosy. Four bills calculated to increase salaries were put to bed permanently Friday afternoon. One anticipated giving the Marion county coroner more money; two were to give office deputies of Indianapolis assessors more pay. another provided compensation for county assessors for serving ou the board of review, and the other aimed to put justices of the peace in Whiting, Hammond and East Chicago on a fee basis. Bills receiving approval of the House were: Persons must be graduates of a dental college in order to plug teeth in Indiana. . Requiring private detectives to be licensed (VanNuys.) Making it a misdemeanor for a person to influence another to leave the state to avoid testifying before a grand or petit jury (R. H. Jackson.) Providing penalties for dumping refuse into streams (G. R. Wood.) Exempting from taxation the dormitory maintained by the Episcopal -"Ciiur.ch of Indiana University (Stotsenburg. Providing that where Baptist church property is abandoned the property ehall revert to the Indiana Baptist convention (Yarlington.) Voluntary associations may dissolve on agreement of all stockholders (Stotsenburg.)

INDIANAPOLIS, March 7. The senate put over the road bills about which the house grew militant, late Friday, in addition to the measure to sell the Marion county courthouse, and the bill to appropriate $22,500 for the Gettysburg trip of veterans of the civil unpleasantness. The occasion is the 50th anniversary of some famous battle, and the bill bears earmarks of a specially arranged junket to hornswoggle the grizzly musket toter into the Democratic ranks, according to the senators. Others characterized it as a w patriotic consecration to warrant a Ivid on tine Btate treasury. P . : 8, 'WSenator Netterville thought he could

WILL BE THE GUEST OF KAISER WILLIAM Wm. Duning Invited to Attend Jubilee With Emperor's Comrades. 1 William Duning, a well known bicye dealer of this city, has received a notice from the Hamburg American steamship line informing him that he and Paul Werner of Cleveland, Ohio, have been presented with free passage at the order of Emperor William to Hamburg, Germany and return to attend the twenty-fifth jubilee of the emperor with the comrades of the Kaiser company. Mr. Duning is secretary and one of the founders of the Deutche Militar Verein of Richmond. He was present at Berlin when the emperor celebrated his sixth silver wedding anniversary in 1906 and he re

ceived ja silver souvenir from the Kaieda ser. but a few dribbling dollars keeping them apart. Netterville moved that the senate conferees be instructed to recede from the senate amendments to the house bill, but Lieut.-Gov. O'Neill sustained Stotsenburg's point of order. Netterville expressed the opinion privately that he was not out of order and said he would find another method to break the deadlock. Senattor Will Wood (Tipton county) and Senator Adams got into a sarcastic fuss over the Biddle bill ordering all road taxes in excess of $20 to be paid in cash, but it carried. Wood used adjectives varying in strength from "unconstitutional" to "miserable misfit." Obituary of Amanda Jane Parker, Amanda Jane Thomas, daughter of Isaac R. and Mary Jane Thomas, was born near Arba, lad., Dec. 29, 1S51. Departed this life, from her home in Fountain City, Ind., March 1st, 1913. Aged 61 years and 2 months. She was the third of a family of seven children. On May 2:;rd, 1868 she was united in marriage to Jesse F. Parker; to this union was born two sons; the younger departed this life in infancy. In her early girlhood she united with the Christian church at Bethel, of which she was a member until about 1S7S she joined the M. E. church of this place, taking an active part in both the Sabbath school and church work. In 1892 she transferred her letter to the Friends' church, of which her husband was a member, and continued in this relation until her death. For several years her poor health has prevented her from enjoying the benefits of public worship, but she has always maintained a deep interest in the spiritual activities around her. Her life has always been one of personal sacrifice for those she loved; therefore "many will rise up and call her blessed." She leaves her husband, one son, two sisters, two brothers and a host of relatives and friends to mourn her loss. She was the third of a family of seven children. 6 room Bungalow in the East End. Reducing a Pound to Nothing. In what form is lead lightest on the scales? A British scientist has attempted to tell how to make the proof, but it isn't the easiest thing in the world either to prepare the pound of lead or place it in position for the proof. He says that making 1,000 small ! balls of the pound of lead the weight remains the sann though the surface is greatly increased. Then reduce the small balls into 1,000,000 balls, with the surface enormously increased, but the balls still weigh the one pound in the scales. But this scientist says that if these 3,000,000 shot particles further are reduced to one twenty thousandth of an inch each, they will rest in the atmosphere just where they are placed This for the reason that that pressure of light from the sun exactly overcomes the forces of gravitation. To make the lead bits smaller, however, the scientist says that the sun- : light seizes them and hurles them into snace. i FREE TO ASTHMA SUFFERERS A New Home Cure That Anyone Can Use Without Discomfort or Loss of Time.

"PUT YOURSELF

This Is As Applicable to the Lower Animals As to the Higher and Is the Philosophy Upon Which. Humane Societies Base Their Propaganda.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. "The educated seals." Their performances at the Murray this week are provocative of a variety of reflections. In the first place, as stated the other day, the wonder is that they do what they do at all. The education of the lower animals in displays of intelligence is always interesting. From several points of view. The infinite patience of the trainer, the sumbission of the animal, the latter's final subjugation, the eternal vigilance necessary to maintain the ground gained and to prevent lapses into the primal state are among them. Itis looked at chiefly from the human vantage. But "put j'ourself in his place," is not bad philosophy for the lower animal. And it is not from the point of view of the animal, but that of the human, that we look upon and applaud the human-like antics of the former. Supposing you were a seal, in instance. Whose natural habitat was the northern waters. Whose habits are, in consequence, almost wholly aquatic. And they took you from your home, tortured and harried you to do strange things which puzzled and bewildered you. Supposing when you resented all Jhis now and then and rebelled, you were put through your paces until you submitted out of sheer exhaustion and inability to fight for your freedom any longer. Supposing, then, you were hauled about from place to place, and in amazing, uncomfortable and foreign environ, compelled to go through your tricks over and over again. Urged on by fear of punishment if you didn't succeed. Prodded by sharp things that hurt if you "fell down." Carted from place to place without seeming reason. That is, reason to you. Maybe, after a time, you get to love your trainer. But that's because you follow an instinct of nature peculiar not only to your kind but to the humans and which consists in attaching yourself to the thing nearest you and which you see most of. Supposing all this? The trouble is we don't get at the animal's side of it. And, naturally, that is more or less problematical. But, using human processes of reasoning, how would you like it? You say oh, well, look at the vaudeville performers. Don't they go through their paces and go about from place to place. That's true enough. But they have the right of choice. And choice is something the lower animals do not possess. . This is the reason that a trained animal exhibition, of whatever nature, or the spectacle in a Zoo, is more or less painful to those who stop to think or get beyond the entertainment of the moment. These remarks are not a protest

The body contains phosphorus sufficient to make 483,000 matches. Phosphorus is one of fourteen elements composing the body divided among bones, flesh, nervous system and other organs. The perfect health of body requires a perfect balance of the elements. These elements come from the food we eat the stomach extracts and distributes them. But if stomach is deranged the balance of health is destroyed and the blood does not carry the proper elements to the different organs, and there is blood trouble nerve trouble heart trouble. Pain is the hungry cry of starved organs. Put the liver, stomach and organs of digestion and nutrition into a condition of health. That is just what is done by DR.

I) against the exhibition of the local vaudeville house. Since these animals are treated as well and are certainly as clever in their manipulations &i any ver seen here. There is no manner of doubt, however, that cruelties are practiced in the education of the lower animals for exhibition purposes and also in confinement. It is an admitted fact that many wild animals in confinement go insane. This was true of a poor coyote at the Glen a few years ago. The writer remembers to have walk, ed past its cage one day and stopped to notice its strange action. The cage box, nther was just a trifle longer than the animal itself and very narrow. The poor, crazy coyote whose home is in the vastness of the plains paced back and forth like a maniac in his cell. And, at intervals, threw itself against the door with all the force it could muster. Again and again the miserable beast flung himself on the frail barrier that stood between himself and freedom. Again and again was visible madness depicted in its eyes over its failure. It was as tragic and melancholy a spectacle as could be seen in this world. It symbolized the shrieking protest of life against any handicap. It illustrated the cruelties of civilization. It demonstrated the futility of an effort to crush the spirit of the wild thing. And was a sardonic commentary on society. The animr.Is at the Glen are admittedly kept there because they "amuse the children." And the suggestion that the local tentative Zoo be made an actual one as an invaluable civic asset frequently made. This poor, crazy coyote did, indeed, "amuse the children." Some little boys came along and viewed its antics, as they regarded them, hilariously. To keep these antics going at the top of the coyote's bent, the small humans poked sticks through the interstices and prodded the already frenzied brute to a more spectacular exhibition. The harder it threw itself against its prison walls the louder did the dear little boys laugh and the harder did they poke their, sticks through the cracks. The children, witness, were being "amused." The truth is that the whole thing should be banished from the city park. Or, if the city insists in keeping animals there for the entertainment of the populace, then they should be given expert attention. This is not possible to the attaches of the city park who have other duties to perform and are not trained in the care of wild animals. They do the best they can but they are not in position to do what is necessary and needful. Mr. James Mooney, one of the country's distinguished scientists, a

former resident of this city, and connected with one of the government departments, stated, when In Richmond a few years ago, after a walk through the park and an inspection of the animals therein kept, that the latter were neglected and abused. Not knowingly so on the part of those having them in charge. But without an ability to give them intelligent care since the animals were not properly housed or given the necessary treatment that is usual in all places where wild animals are confined. The care of the latter, under artificial conditions, as must necessarily exist where they are confined for spectacular purposes alone, Is attended by scientific methods. And, if we are going to keep such a display on tap under the auspices of the municipality for the amusement of the junior inhabitants of the town, a special trained caretaker should be employed. The animal huts now deface one of the most picturesque parts of the park. If the whole thing was changed and an enclosure made somewhere near the elk park the public would be the gainer from every point of view. It has been pointed out, also, that the fences round the latter were inadequate and that an elk, under abnormal condition, could easily burst through this frail barrier. It is the fact, however, to return to the original statement, that we give too little intelligent attention to the animals committed to the municipal care. And forget that we are the superior force in the universe. That, in consequence of the latter, we should be merciful to the beast, who, on the other hand, may be less of a brute than the reasoning animal which has jurisdiction over him.

GREEH STOLE RAZOR FROM HIS EMPLOYER

He Then Stepped Into This State But Police Arrested Him. Fred Green was arrested yesterday by Patrolman Lawler on the charge of carrying concealed weapons. He was fined $5 and costs in police court this morning for stealins and carrying a razor. Green started to work for Charles Raper. a farmer who lives east of the Elliott mills, over the Ohio state line. Yesterday, it is said, he stole Raper's razor and several horse blankets. As Raper does not live in this state he was unable to prosecute Green but the local police tool the matter in hand and arrested him for petit larceny. The charge was later changed to that of carrying concealed weapons. Green denied stealing the blankets but admitted that he had taken the razor. He did not pay the fine and was sent to the county jail. The Mothers' Favorite. A cough medicine for children should be harmless. It should be pleasant to take. It should be effectual.
