BOOK BY SENATOR III GREATDEMAND Contains Early History and Sketches of Trials in Wayne County.

Judge Henry C. Fox is the possessor of a book published in 1858 by O. H. Smith, at one time senator from Indiana, and an authority on all legal questions. The book is wonderfully well preserved and was formerly owned by Deputy Sheriff Clarence Mote who found it in a barrel in his home among some old documents. The cover was yellow with age and time worn. It has been rebound and is in the private library of the Judge. It contains many incidents which occurred id the early trials of the various courts of Indiana. The writer at one time practiced law In Connersville and several of his sketches are of trials heard in the Wayne circuit court. The book is a rare one and much sought after by libraries in Indiana. The following account is given of ow he came to this state and its condition at that time. "At the time I came to Indiana in March of 1817, there was not a railroad In the United States, nor a canal west of the Alleghany mountains. The telegraph had not been invented, fire was struck by the flint and steel, the falling spark was caught in "Punk" taken from the knots of a hickory tree. There was not a foot of turnpike road in Indiana and plank roads had never been heard of; the girdled standing trees covering the cultivated fields, the shovel-plow the only cultivator, no roads west of the Whitewater river, not a bridge in the state, the traveling, 'all done on horseback, the husband mounted before on the saddle with from one to three of the youngest children in his arms the wife with a spread cover reaching to the tail of the horse, seated behind with the balance of the children. We young gentlemen retained the luxury of a single horse; not a carriage nor a buggy in the country. After some years Mr. Lovejoy brought a buggy from New England to Connersville. I borrowed it to ride to Wayne county, but I gave up the buggy and took my horse, for fear the people would think ma proud and it would injure my race for congress. "The finest farms around Wayne county and Connersville, in one of the moat beautiful countries in the world, cleared, with orchards and common buildings were $5 and $10 per acre. I bought a fine farm adjoining Connersville, the same now the residence of my friend Hon. Samuel W. Parker, of John Adair of Brookville, for $9 per acre, in three annual installments without interest. There was very little money in the country and the produce was equally low in proportion. I bought the finest qualities of stall fed beef and corn fed hogs for family use at a cent and a half per pound; corn ten cents and wheat twenty-five cents per bushel, wood delivered and cut short for $1 per cord ; boarding from $1 to $2 per week. No white man had settled more than five miles west of Connersville at that time. CARD OF THANKS.

Amusements

At the Murray. May 16 Girls. "GirlsWith the performance tonight, tomorrow afternoon and night the Francis Sayles players will close another successful week at the Murray theater, and during the week each member of the company has made a personal hit, and has won many friend by excellent work in Clyde Fitch's greatest comedy drama, " "Girls." The play is one that is far above the average Been here at popular prices, and the company is the best that the theater goers of Richmond have ever had the pleas ure of seeing here. Mr. Murray de serves great credit for bringing to Richmond such a company as Mr. Sayles has, and no doubt it will have a long and successful season. "The Man on the Box." Francis Sayles' players will offer at the Murray all next week with the regular matinees Henry Dixie's greatest comedy success, 'The Man on the Box." This play has been presented in all the larger cities at dollar and a half prices, and was also seen at the Gennett a few years ago at higher prices. However, Mr. Sayles promises a first-class production with all the special scenery and mechanical effects. "The Wolf." Fon the fifth week of the Francis Sayles players at the Murray theater Mr. Sayles has selected Eugene Walters' great play of the Canadian wood, "The Wolf." In the voting contest during the past week this play secured more votes than any an the list, and as was announced early in the week, Mr. Sayles will present any play that the theater goers of Richmond want. "The Wolf" is one of the very best plays that could have been selected, as Mr. Sayles played the part on the road for two seasons, appearing in all the larger cities, and a first-class performance is promised. Murrette. The feature picture at the Murrette today is a two-reel subject, "The Girl Spy in Mexico," showing the hardships endured by a Mexican girl who is working in the capacity of a Red Cross. nurse for the Federals. She is discovered to be a Mexican spy and sentenced death. Her rescue by her Mexican sweetheart makes a very interesting picture. "Horatio Sparkins," la Vitagraph comedy, is also shown. Next week "The Prisoner of. Zenda," the production in Which Mr. Frohman starred James K. Hackett, one of America's foremost actors, and one of the greatest successes of his career, will be brought to Richmond for a limited engagement. This picture is said to be one of the most wonderful works ever attempted in the photoplay line. The chief interest in "The Vampire of the Desert," an unusually striking photoplay produced by the Vitagraph company, lies in the lesson it teaches. The whole world, civilized and uncivilized, if full of vampirical women, who lure and destroy, bequile and damn everlastingly, using their beauty and powers of fascination to lead others on to ruin rather than to purity of true love. Most women, whatever their life or convictions, utterly fail to resist the subtle influence, once it is felt. It comes upon them like a tremendous flood in which their moral senses are completely drowned. The play is a picture of the actual power of such a woman, showing her destructiveness and her methods, and demonstrating the utter weakness of men who come within ehe scope of her dangerous wiles. The vampire, Lispeth is not content with wrecking one home; she attempts the ruin of another and almost spoils the lives of four innocent people, who are saved from a life of misery by the terrible vengeance taken by her former victim. This powerful photo-drama forms a two-part feature which will be shown at the Murrette Sunday, May 18. The story shows, above all else, the actual nature of the coquette and, although the case taken is an extreme one, teaches the danger of playing with fire. Arcade. For Friday and Saturday each picture is a feature in itself. "The Lefthanded Man" is a detective story that is both unique and logical. The thief was clever and forged around the girl's sweetheart a chain of circumstantial evidence that seemingly had no flaw. The girl's faith was great, and in unraveling the mystery the detective she engaged used the scientific methods of today, makes a brilliant detective story. "The Fortune" is a bubbling comedy of good wholesome fun. He dreams, and when he awakes Jake's fortune is a "Josh." "The Man from the West," is one of the Edison company's best dramas, featuring Mabel Trunnelle and August Phillips. Palace. For today the Palace offers a variety of splendid subjects "My Lady's Boot," a charming romance of the civil war, by the Majestic company; a reliance western drama, "The Sheriff," produced on Miller Bros. 101 ranch at Bliss, Okla., using the cowboys and Indians of the ranch in the cast, and a sparkling Thanhouser comedy, "The Other Girl." a picture taken during the rose tournament at Los Angeles, Cal.

MOORE IS TO BOOK ATTRACTIONS HERE Gennett Theater Now on Circuit With Thirty-Five Other Theaters.

The attractions at the Gennett theater for the coming season will be under the control of K. L. Moore, who has added the local playhouse to his list of thirty-five theaters. The Moore circuit is one of the strongest in the United States. Most of the theaters are located jn Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia. The local theater will be managed by O. G. Murray, and Mr. Moore will merely book the attractions. Arrangements have been made whereby the entire bookings of the Gennett pass into the control of the Moore circuit. Other places in Indi ana on this circuit are Tipton, Crawfordsville, Noblesville, Anderson, New castle, Bluffton and other cities. Mr. Moore was here recently. His home is in Wheeling, W. Va. This arrangement will be of great advantage to the local management, as many plays will be seen here which could not be booked otherwise. There will be more plays here next season than during the last, according to the management. It will mean a curtailment of expenses and the certainty of time in the best houses in the wide territory covered. Mr. Moore is affiliated with the Klaw & Erlanger producers of New York, and It is probable that many of their attractions will be seen here. PROGRESSIVE NOTICE. All candidates for city offices subject to the Progressive nomination are requested to meet at Progressive headquarters Saturday, May 31, 1913, 2 o'clock p. m., to draw for places on the ticket. The names of the candidates will go to the printer on this date for the printing of the ballots. W. Howard Brooks, Chair. Roy C. Fry. Sec'y. Knew What She Wanted.

Soil Needs Nitrogen

There is one crop of great value that at the present time is being neglected by farmers, says J. C. Beavers, of Purdue university. This crop belongs to the leguminous class of plants and deserves a place in Indiana agriculture on account of the nitrogenous food it furnishes, and because it increases rather than diminishes the supply of nitrogen in the soil. On account of these advantages the farmers of the state are Justified in growing many more acres of soy beans than have been grown. . The greatest need of most Indiana soil is more nitrogen and organic matter. Through careless methods of management and poor crop rotations. man in three brief generations has almost exhausted what it' took nature centuries to accumulate. These exhaustive practices can not long continue if our agriculture is to be perma nent. The growing of such crops as soy beans will do much toward improving thin soils and maintaining those soils which are still fertile. It is not always easy for the farmer to understand just why it is that a crop like soy beans will produce a food containing more nitrogenous substance per acre than corn or oats, and at the same time leave the soil in better condition than it was before.

and Organic Matter

a short time ago, who grew two acres of soy beans last year. A neighbor who was in the field with us said. "Look here; I want you to tell me why it is that this wheat here where those soy beans grew last year is four inches higher than where corn was grown." It took but little explanation to answer his question. Last year when we planted the beans we used about ten pounds of inoculating soil, which was mixed with the beans just before drilling. This soil was taken from a field where soy beans were grown the year before that was thoroughly Inoculated. It contained millions of bacteria which inoculate the soy beans. These little microscopic organisms had done the work. They had stocked the roots with a wart-like growth from the site of a pea to a small marble. They had done their share in producing a crop that sold for $40 an acre, and they had increased the supply of nitrogen in the soil that is making a better growth of wheat. AH this has been accomplished by bacteria. So all bacteria are not to be feared. This kind takes nitrogen out of teh air and gives it to the plant, and the plant furnishes it to man and the land. There are a great many farmers in Indiana who would do well to co-operate with nature and get a good val TOO GOOD TO ESCAPE IMITATION If a merchant tries to twist you away from Duffy's when you ask for it and offers something "just as good" or "more for the same money" he does so because he makes more money on the sale of inferior goods.
