Meyers who called on him a few days ago to protest against the re-appointment of Dr. Smelser and Dr. John F. Spaunhurst that he' would make the re-appointments if the other four members of the board would resign. The governor has indicated that he would request the resignations. The terms of Dr. Smelser and Dr. Spaunhurst expired a month ago but they will serve until their .successors have been appointed and qualified. . When asked today if the matter was broached at the meeting yesterday, Dr. Smelser stated that nothing was said regarding the action of the three indianapolis physicians or about the probable action the governor may take in the matter.

SHOULD REGULATE MARRIAGE M'KEE Dublin Man Also Favors the Limitation of Offspring. (National News Association) INDIANAPOClS, May 21. In a paper read yesterday at the meeting of the Indiana Eclectic Medical Society, Dr. C. EL McKee of Dublin, declared that law. should regulate marriage and encourage the limitation of offspring. , "No marriage license should be issued unless a complete family history and personal certificate of health is presented to the clerk," he declared. Procreation should be made impossible to degenerates. , "No home can be happy where there are more children than the wages of the bread winner can support, or the physical -condition, the woman too weak to care for them. I believe in the regulation of offspring and that (he legislature should, encourage it ' "Farmers select the time of breeding their stock, but they and all others have children by accident. This is not aa it should be, for the birth of future citizens should be arranged for with greater care than the hogs and cattle."

They denied that any attempt would be made to pass the bill as at present framed over the president's veto should he disapprove it. The bill now is in. conference but the conferees cannot remove the latter union provision because it is not one of the questions in disagreement and they have no jurisdiction. ' TRAVELS OF A COMET. "' i. ift r ii -r Last Seen In 1681, It Is Due to Visit ' Us Again tn 2256. 1 There Is a conjet that comes within sight of the earth every 575 years. Its tail Is millions of miles In thickness and many more millions of miles in length. It was first seen, so far as blstory records, 1,769 years before the birth of Christ. In a few weeks It faded from the sky, only to return in 1194 and 619 B. C. The year that Julius Oaesar died 44 B. C It came again, returning In 531 and 1106 A. D. The last time it was seen was in 16S1, when Sir Isaac Newton beheld it and discovered that comets are kept in their orbits by the sun, the si me as the earth and the other planets. - Over two and a quarter centuries have now passed since the comet disappeared.Even if it has been traveling no more rapidly than the earth goes around the sun its enormous bulk has been shooting through space at the rate of about 1.500,000 miles a day. Yet In the year 2256 this same old comet that was already a well known visitor when it looked down upon the deathbed of Julia Caesar will again come within sisht of those human beings, yet unborn, who will then inhabit the earth. Talk about a railroad train going halfway across a tontinent in three days and reaching Its destination on time What Is such a performance as compared with, that comet that bakes a trip of 310.006,000.000 miles In 575 years aod keeps so closely to its schedule that it always bursts from the darkness at the, moment when the astronomers expect it?

NEUTRAL WATERS. River Stretches Where Fishermen Only Waste Their Time. According to old fishermen, there Is what might be called neutral ground, or, rather, neutral water. In rivers, where there is no use of trying to make a catch unless it be that some fool fish with a piscatorial brainstorm snatches bait as an insane human might grab a redhot stove. This neutral water Is the part of the river where its flow encounters the saline Impregnation of the salt water of the bay or ocean into which it finally empties. With the ebb and the flow of the tide the sat water of the bay runs up into the river for miles, and on the reverse the fresh water descends several miles again to the bay leading into the salt sea. There is a midway between the salt and fresh water points, however, that very seldom shifts. Around this midway shad and blue and other salt water fish, if they visit at all. will hover on the ocean side. On the fresh water fringe will loiter such fish as inhabit currents that are devoid of the saline ingredient. If the fisherman happens to cast bait in this neutral zone he is not likely , to get either one kind or the other. New York Sun.

RESERVE BANK PLAN Is Advocated By Senator Owen, of Oklahoma. (National News Association) WASHINGTON, May 21. A system of reserve banks throughout the United States to operate in such a manner that financial panics will be impossible was advocated today by Senator Owen of Oklahoma, chairman of the senate banking and currency committee during a visit to the white housi. "Panics arise primarily from money stringencies at certain points," said the senator. "A number of reserve banks equipped with a reasonable surplus would do a great deal toward preventing anf stringencies, partiou'"" at crop mo'ving times, when immediate money is most necessary. The security for this financial aid should be primarily the credit of the United States; secondly the power of the reserve banks and thirdly, the notes of the farmers themselves which could be converted into gold on short notice.' Senator Owen stated that a plan of currency legislation had practically agreed upon. CASE IS DISMISSED Against Dave Bromley in Police Court. The charge of assault and battery preferred against Dave Bromley by Charles Deem was dismissed this morning on motion of Prosecuting Attorney Reller after the case against Bromley had begun. It was seen by the court that Bromley could not be prosecuted as he had ordered Deem from his saloon on Ft. Wayne avenue many times before any attack was made. Bromley stated that Mrs. Deem had asked him not to sell Deem liquor, and that he had not done so for three months, although Deem has come to his place many times. Deem charged that Bromley struck him Saturday night, and that there was no provocation. Some men are born great, some achieve greatness, and some manage to put up a successful bluff.

(National News Association) WASHINGTON, May 21. President Wilson again disregarded all precedent today in exercising what amounted to censorship over epeechmaklng In congress. Learning that Representative Siswon of Mississippi intended to discuss the Japanese situation and bearing in mind the Mississippian's inflammatory utterances several weeks ago on the same subject, the president sent for the congressman and asked him to detail what he proposed to say. He was requested to eliminate any portion of his speech which might tend to inflame or arouse any feeling on the part of Japan. In his previous speech Sisson declared that he would rather see war with Japan than to surrender any state rights. Today the Mississippi congressman assured the president that he had not intended to commit any diplomatic breach and in his future speech proposed to discuss merely the legal phases of alien land ownership. The Mississippi congressman Is noted as one of the most fiery orators in the house. While Sisson in his former speech raised the cry of war, he was active in his opposition to the bill appropri

ATLANTA. Ga May M. The Presbyterian church. South, today selected Kansas City for its 1914 assembly. When the three general assemblies of Presbyterians met this forenoon the tense situation over heresy charges had been relieved by the adoption of a motion to table the matter until next year. Speakers at the southern assembly charged that the federal council of the churches of Christ in America has a social service program that conflicts in several particulars with the doctrine of the Presbyterian church, The southern assembly was urged to withdraw from the council and may do so before the debate is closed. An abrupt close to the Union Seminary fight was brought at the northern assembly by the motion of Dr. Mark A. Mathews, former moderator, whi h referred the three reports to a new committee of seven members to report at the next assembly. A resolution was passed in the closing minutes of the session of the United Presbyterians calling upon President Wilson to prevent the wearing of any distinctive religious garb in any of the government schools. The 1914

assembly of the United Presbyterians will be held at XewcasUe, Pa, It Happened In Boste. Visitor Pat me off at the next corner, please, conductor. ConductorMadam.
