GOOD BLOOD. Given good, clean, healthy blood, Nature will do the rest with any case of catarrh, inflammatory rheumatism, scrofula, eczema, erysipelas, boils, pimples or skin disease of any kind. Good blood invariably means vigorous appetite, good digestion and strength. Thus it stands to reason that an effective "alterative' or blood purifier, while it will not cure all diseases, will help in fighting any disease and will cure those mentioned above, all of which come from bad blood. Forty years ago Dr. A. B. Simpson of Richmond, was known as one of the most successful physicians in three states. His success was founded almost exclusively on one prescription, the most powerful blood purifier ever known. After his death this prescription -was regularly put up as Dr. A. B. Simpson's Vegetable Compound. It has been, used extensively al? over the country, and in forty year has never failed, even in that n.o3t . dreadful of all blood diseases, syphilids in its worst stage. And when an alterative will do that it of course cleans and rebuilds blood affected wltt other troubles. Simpson's Vegetable Compound Is purely vegetable, and as harmless as it is effective. It is sold at $1.00 per bottle at ell drug stores. Advertisement.

PLANT CJBNJM PARK Harvey's Ball Park Now a Thing of the Past.

NEWCASTLE, Ind., March 19. Harvey's Ball Park will soon be a thing of the past. This state of affairs is due largely to the building and opening of Maxwell Park two years ago. Since that time very few games have been played at Harvey's and the owner will either sell or move the grand stand, and expects to plow up the ball lot and put it in corn this spring. Manager Dal Williams of the Maxwell Ball Club will rot be backed by the new Maxwell Company, but he has leased Maxwell Park for the season. T BOWLING NOTES t 4 CITY ALLEY STANDING.

Attempts are being made to turn Mayor Zimmerman's office into a matrimonial bureau. One letter received yesterday from a Cincinnati man informs the mayor that good, honest, competent "women are sometimes secured through the newspapers and asks him to have the letter published in the local papers. The man is very particular as to the qualifications of a "soul mate," saying that she must be a good business woman and able to take care of the home. The letter may be a forgery as it is printed with ink, the letters being one-quarter inch higi. "Even if it is a forgery," said the mayor, "it may get some nice brown-eyed girl from Richmond a good home. I believe that the man who sent it is an honest and industrious business man as he comes to the point in asking for a wife." Tha letter reads as follows: Mayor's Office, Richmond, Indiana. Dear Sir: It is possible sometimes to find an honest woman through the means of the newspapers, who is willing to share a good home given to her by an honest and industrious business man of good standing. If so Mr. Mayor, I therefore beg the dignity of your office to give this letter to the newspapers of your city for publication. However the iady of my choice should be five feet three inches tall, brown eyes and hair, must be intelligent, her age must be from 21 to 25. Single ladies or young widows without children are requested to write, she must be a good musician, a good business woman, capable to take care of the home. She must meet the proper requirements of an honest woman. I invite the German-American women especially to write. Very respectfully, C. H. HOLTZ. Postoffice Station D. Walnut Hills, Cincinnati, Ohio.

WHARTON TALKS Oil HEW UTILITIES ACT

J. B. Wharton, local manager of the Light, Heat and Power company stated today to a representative of the Palladium that he believes that City Attorney Bond is wrcng in his interpretation of the new public utilities J commission law, according to a state ment printed yesterday in the Palladium to the effect that city council has the power to reduce the rates charged for artificial gas to a figure whicn the council, or a committee appointed by council believes fair to the consumers fand the pas company. Although Mr. Wharton has not as yet reviewed legal advise on the matter, attorneys are studying the utilities commission law for the Light, Heat and Power company. He believes that city council has no -ight to establish a rate here and that this rests with the public utilities commission. Mr. Wharton is under the impression that a rate is named in the franchise and contract which the company now holds'" with the city. City Attorney Bond stated yesterday to the Palladium and the public service committee of the Commercial club that at no place in the contract could be found any specific rate named. Whether this important item was omitted by the council in 1890 when, the franchise was given or not, has not been determined but a careful investigation is being made of all papers and contracts which the city holds with the Light, Heat and Power company. At the meeting of the public service committee of the Commercial club last evening. City Attorney Bond explained his views on the matter and answered the questions which the members of the committee asked him. The committee indorses the city attorney's interpretation of the law. According to City Attorney Bond, the city's power to establish the rates is vested in Section 110 of the public utilities law. Section 110 outlines the extent of the authority of the city and in part of this section is the clause upon which' Mr. Bond bases his assertions. In part section 110 reads: Every municipal council shall have power (a) to determine by contract, ordinance, or otherwise, the quality and character of each kind of product cr service, to be furnished or rendered by any public utility, furnishing any product of service within said municipality and all other terms and conditions not inconsistent with this act, upon which such public utility may be permitted to occupy the streets, highways, or other public property within such municipality, and such contract, ordinance, or other determination of such municipality shall be enforced in prima facia reasonable. Upon complaint made by such public utility or other qualified complainant as provided in section 57 the commission shall set a hearing as provided in section 57 to 71, and if it shall find such contract, ordinance, or other determination to be unreasonable, such contract, ordinance, or other determi nation shall be void.

FAMILY . TAKEN IH CUSTODY (National News Association) NEW ORLEANS, March 19. With more than $500,000 in currency and checks carried In their valises, their pockets and concealed in women's hats, Antone Martinez, alias Musica, and his four sons and two daughters, all from New York city, were arrested here today and placed in jail on charges of swindles involving over $1,000,000. The father admitted that he had been engaged in business in New York as an importer and exporter of human hair and hair goods. The arrest of the family was marked by dramatic incidents. They were all asleep in their berths on a steamer about to sail for Honduras when detectives placed them under arrest. The father and his four sons fought viciously for several minutes. While the men were struggling the two daughters attempted to throw into the river $200,000 in currency, concealed in their large hats, but were prevented from doing so. The family came here from Atlanta, engaged berths on the steamer and immediately went aboard. As the prisoners were being taken from the steamer to the police station Fhe father seized a revolver from the pocket of one of his sons and attempted to commit suicide, but was prevented after another struggle by the detectives. Aside from the currency one of the daughters threw overboard the detectives found $18,000 in the pockets of one of hte daughters and $15,000 in the other girl's stockings. NATURE OF SWINDLES. NEW YORK, March 19. Antonio Musica and his son Philip, dealers In human hair, with branches and connections all over the world, were indicted here yesterday afternoon on a charge of defrauding J. and W. Seligman, bankers, out of $16,793 by means of fraudulent invoices. The transaction. District Attorney Whitman asserts, is only one of many through which the Musicas have defrauded twenty-two American and foreign banks out of approximately $1,000,000. "Worthless," Say Experts. On the Fabre line pier here are 288 cases of human hair consigned by the Musicas to merchants in Europe. This hair the Musicas five days ago billed at top figures and on the strength of the invoices, it is charged obtained from bankers here advances covering the full value of the cases or at least a portion of the chipment. The shipment was worth $600,000 according to their figures. But the cases told a different story from the invoices when opened. The entire shipment, experts . said, was worth about w hat it would coat to haul away. The specific offense charged in the indictment is that the Musicas, through their corporation, the United States Hair company, obtained on March 11 from the Seligmans $16,793 to cover the value of nine cases of hair shipped to Marseilles.

SCHOOLS HOT CLOSED

FOUNTAIN CITY, Ind.. March 19. County Supt. Williams announced today that the Fountain City schools will not close today as expected but will continue the work until the close of the term. The county superintendent' announced a few days ago that the schools would be closed because of the epidemic of measles. While the attendance on Monday was reduced from 235 to 95 on account of the many school children who are afflicted with the malady the school will continue until Friday of next week which concludes the term. Efforts to stamp out the contagion have proved fruitless and patrons, except in cases which are covered by the measles quarantine rules, are being left to their own discretion about sending their children to school. Because of such a short time until the close of the term it was not thought advisable to dismiss and then resume again. NOT FOR SUFFRAGE WASHINGTON.
