The trial of the state against the estate of John and Clara Kempton went to the jury at a late hour this afternoon. Forty three witnesses were called to testify as to the value of the land. , The Jury spent three hours yesterday afternoon In viewing the land and investigating the improvements which the owner values highly. An offer was made Kempton of $170 per acre for the land though he demanded more money alleging that it is worth from $180 to $200 per acre with the improvements now on it. The object of the state Is to procure additional land for the Eastern Indiana Hospital for Insane where inmates can be worked out on the land. County Assessor Matthews stated today that the assessed value of the lands,, of persons who testified in the case as to the value of their own farms as well as Kemptons would be raised. The appraised value of Kempton's farm as recorded with the assessor is $40 per acre. Assessor Matthews said there would be no attempt to

collect back taxes though the prices of the lands belonging to witnesses who testified is higher according to their testimony than their affidavit given as to the value to the assessors.

Thy declared that the conductor and motorman of the car exhibited presence of

mind when the impending danger was

seen, the motorman staying at his

post and preventing what might hare been one of the most disastrous

wrecks which has ever occurred on

the line. The car left Indianapolis at 7:25 o'clock and was due in Richmond at 9:55. After several long stops at Irvington and Greenfield due to the lack of means of communication, the car arrived several hours late at Knightstown. Orders were given here to proceed as the track was clear. One mile east of Knightstown the car was running at the rate of 35 miles an hour down hill, Suddenly, on rounding a curve, the passengers, many of whom were women, saw approaching them from the east a freight car which had just left the switch where the cars were ordered to pass. With the cars less than 50 yards apart and swiftly approaching each other, the passengers made a mad scramble to the rear of the car while the motorman reversed the current. The conductor shouted orders to the people, telling them to brace themselves for the shock but to keep their seats. Both men and women alike became panic stricken and threw the conductor aside. Gaining the rear platform, they jumped from the platform and some climbed through the rear windows. About a dozen persons were injured, those staying in the car escaping in

jury when the motorman succeeded in bringing the car to a stop. Mrs. Alice Crossfleld was picked up unconscious and taken Into the car. One man suffered a broken shoulder and sprained ankle. Another buffered a broken leg and nose and was cut about the ace. Many others received minor injuries. The Injured were removed to the Norwood Hotel at Knightstown where they received medical attention.

APPEARANCE TODAY III CAPHND GOWNS Earlham Seniors Are Cheered When They File in Chapel. The seniors appeared for the first time in their caps and gowns in Earlham chapel this morning. There are forty-eight who will graduate this spring, twenty-four men and an equal number of women. The three lower classes assembled at the usual time for chapel this morning leaving the rst live rows of the auditorium vacant. The seniors came in two by two in their black gowns and caps and took their place amid the cheering of the rest of the students. The occasion marks the beginning of the last term of college for a big number. Prof. J. A. Woodward, professor of history and political sciencn at Indiana university, spoke in chapel this morning on famous nick names in history. He mentioned many that were well known and gave the sources from which they came. In most instances, Prof Wooward said, the nicknames were given in derision and later became more dignified. This is

mainly true in the case of various party nicknames, like "Democrat" was a term of derision, and came from the Jacobin revolutionary societies of Paris. The "Republicans" were originally called "Black Republicans. "Tory" came from bands of outlaws in Ireland and Wales and "Whigg" came from reformers of Wales, he said.

TEACHERS MEETING WITH SCHOOL BOARD

For Further Discussion Teachers' Pension Law At High School.

of

The teachers of the public schools of the city met with the members of

;the board of education this afternoon I in room 20 of the high school for a

further discussion of the teachers' pension law which was enacted at the recent session of the state legislature. Most of the teachers are favorable toward the law while the board Is unanimously opposed because of the Injustice to tax payers. Anonymous letters have been received by the members of the board

condemning the law. One letter wa3 from a washer woman who refused to

sign her name though she seriously objected to being taxed to pay teachers a pension when she had to work so hard for a living, it read. The school authorities in Terro Haute believe they have a law similar to the Indianapolis law and have as yet not realized that they are facing the same proposition that Is before the Richmond school board, according: to C. W. Jord

jthe board.

30,000 VOICES!

And Many Are The Voices Of Palladium and Sun-Telegram People.

Thirty thousand voices What a grand chorus! And that's the number of American men and women who are publicly praising Doan's Kidney Pills for relief frob backache, kidney and bladder ills. They say it to friends. They tell it in the home papers. Richmond people are in this chorus. Here's a Richmond case. John Goins, blacksmith, 1326 N. G St., Richmond, Ind., says: 'I have found that Doan's Kidney Pills live up to the claims made for them. The action of my kidneys was irregular. When I stooped I had sharp twinges in the small of my back. Reading about Doan's Kidney Pills, I began using them and my trouble soon disappeared." Mr. Goins is only one of many Richmond people who have gratefully endorsed Doan's Kidney Pills. If your back aches if your kidneys bother you, don't simply ask for a kidney remedy ask distinctly fo Doan's Kidney Pills the same that Mr. Goins had the remedy backed by home testimony. 50c all stores.

Astonished

RHEUMA Acts on Kidneys, Liver and Blood the First Day and Out Goes Uric Acid Poison. Anybody can afford to pay 50 cents to get rid of terrible Rheumatism. Sciatica or Gout, aud that's all RHEUMA costs at Leo H. Fihe's and he says if it doesn't do all that is claimed for it, money back. It's wonderful how speedily this simple remedy takes hold and how th sore muscles limber up and the swollen joints come down to normal. Mak no mistake RHEUMA cost but little, but it's the best remedy you can find to drive Rheumatic poison from the system and bring back health to misery-racked bodies. I had Rheumatism for a long while, and tried many medicines, but was not

cured until I used RHEUMA. I can

not praise RHEUMA too highly. My advice to those suffering from Rheumatism Is to use this great remedy, as I believe It will effect a permanent cure in any case." C. B. Lanhara, Sattes. W. Va, April 27. 1912. (Advertisement)
