MURDOCH IRRITATES GRAY IN STATEMENT Representative Declares He Voted for Open Caucus Proposition.

Flnly H. Gray, representative of the Sixth district in Congress, became peeved a few days ago when Representative Murdock, the Progressive leader in the House, read a list of Democratic members who voted for the open caucus on April 18, when that question was considered by the Demo; cratic caucus of the house. Immediately Mr. Gray was on bis feet. Addressing Mr. Murdock, he asked: "I should like to inquire if my name appears on the list of those who voted for the open caucus. I do not believe that it appears in the list. I voted for an open caucus twice before that time, and I have voted for an open caucus Bince that meeting, the last time being during the consideration of the pending currency bill by the caucus.' At the time of the caucus alluded to by the gentleman from Kansas I was on my way from my home in Indiana to Washington to vote for an open caucus, and was resisting both fire and water to get here. I was able to overcome fire, but was delayed by water, which had flooded that section of the country, suspending all railway travel." The Progressives in congress have a very cordial feeling for Mr. Gray, and in reply to his pertinent inquiry deader Murdock responded happily: "I have the list before me, and I assure the gentleman that his name appears among those who voted for the open caucus. I am glad to see it there, and I hope he will bow his back and continue to make a fight for the open caucus; because if that little band of brave Democrats in that caucus will fight for the proposition, they will open up that caucus and it will be a good thing for the country and a good thing for the Democratic party."

LOSES MENTAL HOLD Lucas Grows Mentally Weaker in Criminal Ward.

Seth Lucas, confessed wife murderer, confined in the Michigan City criminal insane hospital, will never return to this city to be tried, according to a statement made to Patrolman VogelBong by prison authorities when he took George Schools to the penitentiary. The attendants of the insane ward say Lucas is growing mentally weaker each day and does not seem to have the intelligence of a child. His physical condition, however, is improving and he is becoming too fleshy for work. It is believed that Lucas no longer worries about his crime but that he regards it in the light of a righted wrong, as he believes his wife did not treat him justly.

REMODEL BUILDINGS FOR COLONY FARM

Work of remodeling the buildings on the colony farm of the Eastern Indiana Hospital for the Insane has been started. The first building to be improved will contain quarters for a group of twenty-five patients. The colony farm, which was purchased last spring, was necessary to relieve the crowded conditions of the hospital at Easthaven.

Proved Himself Competent. An English nobleman engaged a tall and powerful highlander to act as gamekeeper on his estate. Having been a considerable time at his post and not having caught any poachers, the nobleman suspected his gamekeeper of carelessness. So one dark night he disguised himself and went out with a gun to poach on bis own grounds. He had fired only one or two shots when he was suddenly pounced upon from behind and his gun wrenched away. Then kicks and blows were showered upon him until he fell down half insensible. The highlander then walked away quietly, and when the nobleman recovered sufiiciently he crawled home and took to his bed for two weeks. He has now no doubts whether the man can perform his duty or not.

BACKACHE IS A DANGER SIGNAL

Riding through the country during the summer evenings one could but notice the frequent gatherings in the school buildings. Sometimes there were choruses of children's voices, sometimes a speaker was addressing a sleepy audience, and one time there was a merry dancing party. One's first thought was that a new movement has reached us. This is the school house as a social center. But is it a new movement? Are we not swinging around, perhaps on a higher spiral, to something like the school house of the early settlement of the country? When the teacher "boarded 'round," gaining an insight of the needs of his pupils, and the school house was the gathering place for all entertainments, for spelling bees, debates and singing schools, and where the reformer with a message too radical for the meeting house, sowed the seed" for great national movements. The many sided training required for complex human existence is probably much the same as ever, but tho burden of imparting it seems to be changing from the home, the workshop, and the church to the school, the library and the press. The homo certainly gives less than it did formerly, the church admits that it reaches fewer, the opportunities for becoming a skilled and well trained mechanic are less in the factory than in the time

of apprenticeships. The schools are forced to become more practical, the libraries must cease to be storehouses only and must have the means for disseminating their mass of practical and cultured information, and the press must become the leader in moral as well as political thought. The burden is the same, but it is being shifted from one shoulder to the other.

agricultural subjects: Hemenway, "How to Make School Gardens;" Dabney, "Agricultural Education;" Bricker, "Teaching of Agriculture in the High School." The book play is always a matter of interest in the library. It is retroactional. Those who read the book like to see the play. Those who see the play wish to read the book. George Cohan is bringing out in New York as a play the novel published last spring by Bobbs-Merrill Co., "Sev-

; en Keys to Baldpate."

In Richmond there are few opportunities to see good plays and we often have to content ourselves with moving pictures. Many extremely interesting book plays are shown in the ' movies." By careful watching of the billboards one can avoid the trashy blood and thunder episodes, and the insipid melodrama, and occasionally hit upon something extremely good. Last night one of the companies had a clever little detective play, "The Mystery of West Sedgwick," written by that witty and versatile woman, Caroline Wells.

HAAS, ART CENSOR

Is "September Morn" a masterpiece or art, or is it an obscene picture? Postmaster Haas has anticipated the answer .by ruling that an attempt to send a post card miniature of the famous picture through the mail would fail. The post master said that it would be withdrawn and sent to the dead-letter office.

Kidney Troubles, Bladder Disorders, Rheumatism and Serious Diseases Follow. There are other symptoms, such as pains in the region of the kidneys, nervousness, dizziness, tired and wornout feeling, weak bladder, or urinary troubles, which are just as Cancerous, for the slightest kidney derangement if neglected may develop into the deadly- Bright's disease, dropsy or diabetes. It Is not only dangerous, but needless, for you to suffer and endure the tortures of these troubles, for Croxone promptly ends all such misery. There is no more effective remedy for kidney, bladder trouble and rheumatism, than Croxone. because it reaches the cause. It soaks right into the kidneys, through the walls and linings, cleans out the clogged up pores, neutralizes and dissolves the poisonous uric acid and waste matter, that lodge in the joints and muscles and cause those terrible rheumatic pains, and makes the kidneys filter the poison from the blood and drives it out of the system. i hree doses of Croxone a day for a few days is often all that is ever needed to relieve the worst backache or overcome disagreeable urinary disorders. You will find Croxone different from other remedies. It is so prepared that it is practically impossible to take it without results. An original package of Croxone costs but a trifle, and all druggists are authorized to return the purchase price if it should fail in a single case. (Advertisement! ,-
