Nath Edwards Writes ECONOMY. Ind., July 30. Do birds ourt in spring as do boys and girls? One Sunday morning in May we heard an awful racket in the old hickDry that stands in the barnyard. That was about 8 a. m., and we noted three woodpeckers in the tree. We found two red-headed suitors for the love of Miss Redhead. They gave an interesting and amusing love story in bird language and action. The male birds indulged in all kinds of fancy flights to show their prowess, including spirals, loop-the-loop and gliding. The lady surely was looking for a husband that could surpass all woodpeckers in fancy flying. It took her until 4 o'clock that afternoon to make up her mind which one to choose. The Bight was so interesting that we missed our dinner to see the outcome. When the lady made her choice, the defeated suitor had to move on. It was a compulsory move, for the happy pair gave the rejected bird to understand that two is company and three a crowd. Both huand and wife chased the dejected s .or. They drove him to the woods. Then they returned and occupied a flat in the tree. Study the birds and see how much they act like human beings. CONGRESS TO CLOSE ABOUT AUGUST 20 WASHINGTON, July 30.

GElii VILLA PREPARES

TO FORCE Rebel Chief Determined on Equitable Distribution of Mexican Land. - - eaaBWaBaSeBBaBBBBSBBBMe WASHINGTON, July 30. Private advices to members of the Constitutionalist party here today support the theory that General Villa is strengthening his army and laying plans to enforce his demand concerning the government to be set up in Mexico City from the transfer of the Carbajal regime to General Carranza. These dispatches say that Villa has been assured of backing to the limit by powerful persons associated with a former administration in Mexico City, and if Carranza does not comply with Villa's wishes, the military chief will take the field at the head of his troops and carry the matter through to a final conclusion. What Villa has been fighting for, according to his pronouncements, is an equitable land policy. He has maintained that the only salvation of the Mexican poorer classes lies in the wresting from the landed gentry their vast acres and the redistribution of this land among the peons, acording to a policy somewhat similar to the American homestead law. Any sign of an encroachment on this policy by the personal adherents of Carranza will not be tolerated by Villa, it is said. Harvest Notes of the Farms POOR OUTLOOK. CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind., July 30. Farmers report the corn prospects dwindling every day. Much of it has had little rain since planting, and it will be a short crop no matter as to future rain. ' Pastures have long since dried up, potatoes are a serious loss, and garden vegetables almost a failure. There was a fair hay crop, a good oats crop and a bumper wheat crop. Of fruits there was a light crop of berries, and the few apples that are in sight for winter use are dropping badly. WHEAT AVERAGES 30 BUSHELS. JACKSONBURG, Ind., July 30. Ed Kinsinger threshed a field of wheat last Thursday containing seventeen acres that yielded 513 bushels, an average of thirty bushels to the acre, and another field of nineteen acres that yielded 407 bushels, an average of 25 bushes. The quality was good. It weighed 60 pounds. LA RUE TO MOVE Mr. La Rue, of this city, will take the position vacated by Fred Goebel as foreman at the American Casket company's plant in Cambridge City. Mr. Goebel resigned his position and succeeds "Vernon Shields as foreman at the Cambridge City casket factory. Mr. Shields will go on theroad for the Ohio Valley Coffin company. TESTS WATER SUPPLY. EATON, O., July 30. Tests to ascertain the purity of Eaton's water supply are being made by officials of the state health department. Following previous investigations it has been ordered that a well at the corner of Maple and Bruce streets be abandoned. At the county Infirmary also a well was ordered closed. A sample ot the city water was sent to Columbus this TO?.ek by Marshal Armstrong, who also JSoMs the position of health officer for the city. Ladies' Hairdressing j In London and Paris I Both cities are positively dotted with hairdressing parlors and hair goods es tablishments. One wonders if the women of these two huge places have time for anything but care of their hair. There are hundreds of makers of switches and wigs and dozens of manufacturers of shampoos. There they use no makeshifts but preparations made for shampooing only and inquiry as to the most popular sham poo brings the reply that canthrox is best. A per feet, economical, invigor ating shampoo can be cheaply made at home by dissolving a teaspoonful canthrox, which every good druggist has, in a cup of hot water. This mix ture cleanses thoroughly, and gives to the scalp the vigor that insures hair beauty. Canthrox shampoos make the head feel good and are very beneficial where, hair is faded and brittle. Their use will greatly enrich the color of the hair and give to it a beautiful gloss and softness. (Advertisement)

Tom Wilson Recalls --. Early Days of City

BY STAFF CORRESPONDENT. DAYTON, O., July 30. Almost the entire time allotted him for a political speech at Brookville, O., was consum ed in relating stories of Richmond. Ind., people yesterday afternoon when Tom Wilson, veteran humorist, sketch writer, paragrapher, performer and publisher of "Town Talk" in Dayton, became reminiscent over incidents occurring a quarter of a century ago. Wilson is one of the party making a campaign : tour in behalf of J. J. Willis, Republican candidate for governor of Ohio. He was to have spoken for three minutes at Brookville but this time allotment was far exceeded. "Whenever I am called on to speak at such a meeting, I cannot forbear reference to Colonel Tom Bennett, once mayor of that beautiful staid old town, Richmond, which stands majestically on the bluffs of the Whitewater river, overlooking rich farm lands and fertile fields," Wilson said in opening. "It was just twenty-five years ago that I presented a sketch at the New Phillips opera house under the auspices of the Sol Meredith Post, O. A. R. In Richmond the soldier boys are given proper respect by the townspeople and they made it a gala week. On Saturday night at my closing perform ance, when I had my big St. Bernards grouped about me ready for the curtain to rise, Tom came back on the stage and told me to wait a minute before opening. Gives Fine Tribute. "When the curtain arose, Tom stepped before me and delivered one of the most beautiful tributes that I have ever heard a man receive. Then he presented me with a beautiful medal in the form of a shield and set with a large diamond. I prize that most highly of the many things I have accumulated in my travels. "Some day I am going to return to Richmond and call on Iliff who was then chief of police; and all the old G. A. R. boys. They are fine fellows. When I heard recently that Joe Betzold and Tom Bennett had passed I was deeply grieved because I knew that it meant the end of two of the finest representatives of the old order of Hoosiers. "This meeting also shows me the difference between political meetings of today and those of the times of Tom Bennett. I had the pleasure of making a tour wltn colonel Bennett and otners through eastern Indiana. V7e were wined and dined and the chief object

There was a large crowd awaiting the speakers before the time set and some of the speakers were then at the hotel unable to even con verse sanely. But Colonel .Bennett saved the day. I had not seen him for some time and I was hunting him when H heard cheers of the crowd outside, i "I stepped outside. There from a balcony of the hotel. Tom Bennett was j in the midst of one of the most elo-j qnent addresses ever delivered in In-j dlana politics. He was cheered to the ' echo."
