FARMERS NOTE. Owing to Washington's birthday being a legal holiday tat many states, today's market reports are Incomplete. : ' YARDS RECEIVE 717 GOOD HOGS DESPITE PRICES A total of 717 bogs were delivered at the Olen Miller stock yards last week. If the heavy deliveries continue during the entire month, the record of sales made in January will be eclipsed. Buyers report lots of bogs in the county, ready for. market, and fanners are ready to Bell in order to get them- out of . the way. before ' the spring work sets in. The rush at the yards Saturday looked like old times. Seven car loads delivered before 12 o'clock. The week's trade Included the delivery of 20 cattle, 20 calves and 3 sheep. Prices have been low because of the latest quarantine . regulations. Several large markets have been closed, and the railroads refused to accept shipments for Pittsburg Saturday night. The top price for hogs during the week was 6 1-4 cents. Charles Brown on the Ed. : Deitemeyer farm, had 30 hogs in Saturday that averaged 27S pounds and were farrowed in April. Delivers 41 Hogs. Oseo Blose,' of Whitewater, delivered 41 hogs on Monday that called for 6 1-4 cents' the top of the week. - Joe Plankenhorn and Lester Parks, on the Williams farm near Smithfield, delivered 59 hogs Tuesday that weighed 20,205 pounds.

FARM WORK OPENS WITH MILDER DAYS Farm life has taken on new activity in the last few days, and much work has been accomplished on farms of the county. The winter has been one of the most favorable on record, from the farmers' 'standpoint, and existing conditions point to a good season with bumper crops. Recent open weather has been very favorable for the sowing of cloverseed in wheat, and seed dealers report that farmers have bought large -quantities of seed, especially of the Big English variety. Reports from different parts of the county indicate that quite a little plowing has been done this week, especially on well drained land that has dried out early. Farmers say that the ground was never frozen to any great depth during the entire winter. There was alwoys a deep protective covering of snow on the eround before the severe cold spells, and there has been very little heaving of the ground with its consequent danger to wheat- and young alfalfa. STOCK SALES DRAW CROWDS OF BUYERS Three farm sales of local interest were held today. Attendance was good despite the inclement weather. At the farm of John Coyne, in Washington township, five head of horses and mules sold for good prices, and twentyfive head of mixed cattle and twentyfive' brood sows found good demand. Mr. Coyne disposed of all his farm impleniens7as be has retired from' active farm work, and has rented his place. VairderbecS" & Flannagan cried the sale; and the Harrisburg ladies served lunch.- --. On the old Spalding farm jest east of -Richmond on. the National road, Charles S Ridenour sold four head of horses, twelve milk cows and twelve hogs, together with .corn, oats, hay and straw. Mr. Ridenour is one of . the best-known farmers living In that neighborhood. His heard of good milk cows, consisting of Jerseys and Shorthorns, averaged about $60 a head. A hog sale of interest to farmers living over the Ohio line was held by Ed Bunger one mile north of Eldorado. Ninety-five head of good Duroe Jersey, hogs were disposed of at fair prives. The sales were for the most part to local buyers, on account of the foot and mouth quarantine. Since 1899 It la estimated that the ! -wifeless telegraph at sea has been reI sponsible forhTe'TOving fTiwre- than

INTRUDERS I0 I AT SWAYNE HOME House-breakers Disarrange Furniture and Clothing But Steal Nothing. Some fesitve housebreakers had a merry time at the home of S. E. Swayne, former president of the Commercial club, Saturday night. Members of the family have been out of the city for some time. In fact so good a time did the uninvited guests have at the Swayne home that they departed without taking any valuables, leaving by the same way they entered, a side window which had been pried open. Some wine found by the housebreakers made a decided hit with them. They exhausted the supply and with care-free abandon romped over the house, judging from the appearance it presented Sunday morning when the house man came to work. Possibly they had a masquerade because garments taken from drawers were found scattered about. There were numerous valuables, including silver, which the housebreakers could have gotten away with easily but so far as can be ascertained nothing of consequence is missing. "I think the fellows broke into the house just to have a good time and they certainly must have had one," said Chief Goodwin today. GARFIELD EVENTS IN NEWSY RRIEFS The Rev. W. B. Freeland spoke before the Garfield students at chapel Friday. The school orchestra played three numbers. At the meeting of the school council recently it was voted that the annual field meet should be held as usual. Details of the arrangement will be made out by the physical education committee. This committee in Its report requested that the girls be given two nights a week in the gymnasium, and also that the floor be painted for the girl's game of captain basketball. - The Garfield printing department is now working on a second edition of the pamphlet on Garfield school. This edition will be completed within the next week and will contain much matter in addition to that in the first issue. .

TO WE CHIEF KEPT SPIRITS Gocdwin Classes Hume as I"ANo. 1 Magician" Police Allow Seance to Assist Chirity. 'It was a pretty good show, althought I did see that changing water Into wine stunt pulled off in the Robinson circus when I was a boy," said Chief lot Polled Goodwin today. As official critic and censor, he attended the spiritualistic entertainment at the Gennett theatre Sunday evening. Exhibitions were given by Prof. Hume, one of the most noted mediums In the world. Chief. Goodwin was doubtful at first whether the exhibition could be givea under the provisions of the state law. He finally gave his consent when a sign was hung up in the theatre lobby announcing that part of the proceeds would be donated to the Penny club, a chaTltable organitation. "Prof. Hume also told me that his exhibition was of a religious nature," the chief said. Chief Remains Skeptical. The head of the police department admitted today that the performance of Prof. Hume was quite remarkable, but the famous medium failed to convinceGoodwin, however, . that there are such. things as spirits. He classifies Hume as an A-No. magician. Practically all of Richmond's ; spiritualistic devotees were In the audience, including one man who is said to have equipped ' a room at his home especially for holding seances. They were all greatly impressed, as were those who frankly scoff at spiritualism. Not a light was turned off or even dimmed from the start to the close of the entertainment. As a get-away Prof. Hume gave a slate writing exhibition which caused even the most incredulous and skeptical of his large audience to gasp with astonishment. He took two slates into the audience and, after convincing every one who examined them that they were absolutely blank, had a man tie them together with a stout cord. He then gave the slates to another man to hold. Hears Scratching Noise. "I can hear something scratching on a slate," this man finally remarked in an astonished stage whisper. "Unties the slates," said Hume. Off came the cord. In between the two slates was a small piece of chalk, and written on oe slate was the following message from old John Brown of Harper's Ferry. "My spirit still goes marching one. "JOHN BROWN." Later a committee of citizens tied Hume securely in a cbttrlaMririn rug draped cabinet. A airttln was pulled hiding him from the-view of his audience, andnstanly tamborines and bells were erupted from the cabinet opening on top, falling all over the stage. And almost at the same instant the alert commtiteemen dashed into the cabinet to find Hume so securely bound that he could not move a finger. Many other interesting experiments featured the program. 998 WAYNE COUNTY PEOPLE ON PETITION Send Petition to General Assembly Asking for Statewide Temperance. BY LEASED WIRE.1 INDIANAF'OLIS, Feb. 22. The legal opinions on the Stotsenberg amendments were called to the attention of the senate today by Senator Ballou, but no action was taken on the matter. In both houses today the constitutional legislation question came to the front. Senator Ballou and Represen tative John J. Jones introduced bills providing for a referendum vote on the question of holding such a convention, the vote to be advisory. In the senate, it is understood, there will be no opposition to the measure. With a bare quorum present, the house started business today. The Reeves bill changing the present law so as to punish "fake" advertisers more severely was passed, 72 to 2. Senator Hirsch introduced a resolution asking congress to pass a uniform law regulating the hours of labor to be required in various lines of manufacture in all the states. The Myer's bill providing that three or more lodges may incorporate to purchase and maintain lodge property was passed, S3 to 0. Another flood of petitions urging state-wide prohibition and the right of women to vote, was received in the house today. A petition for prohibition signed by 449 women and 53i men of Wayne county, was among se.nted by the Women's Christian Temperance Union was signed by more than 7,000 men and women. ITALY SAVES COAL BY LEASED WIRE. ROME, Italy, Feb. 22. Beginning on Thursday many passenger trains will be taken off the state railways system in order to conserve the national coal supply.

SERl IDE mm WORK: SAYS flEV. STOVALL Baptist Pastor Points Out Work Awaiting Every Active Christian.

"The work of the Lord Jesus Christ has lost by those who have dissipated their time and neglected their ser vice," said the Rev. W, O. Stovall, pastor of the First Baptist church in his sermon yesterday morning. "If you are a Christian and not an imbecile there Is a work for you to do. Bring to the Lord of what you have yourself and do not try to give only of that which you cannot use yourself. There are too many persons who sacrifice themselves to the Lord Just as I would give up my portion of Limburger cheese," said Rev. Stovall. "The Lord must not be the gleaner of the harvest but must get the whole harvest of our Uvea." he said. "Christianity has been required to get along on the gleanings while the harvest has gone for our personal use. As long as there Is something in your life that you are not willing to give u p for Christ, you aro not giving him full service.". : . . i The Rev. Mr. Stovall suggested that the way to give service to the Lord was to let Him suggest the service that was to be rendered, rather than for the individual to give only what was convenient. "Write the Lord a blank check," he said, "for service payable to Him. Sign it and let Him fill it in. When the check is presented, pay it in full." HOOSIER BEAUTY ROSE ENRAPTURES FLORISTS "One of the most beautiful roses ever produced." That is the way Mr. Gardner of New Castle, describes the Hoosier Beauty, the latest creation of the E. G. Hill Floral company. New Castle, like Richmond, is famous as a rose producing center, and the rivalry between the florists of the two cities is keen. Mr. Gardner with Mayor Watkins of New Castle, and three other New Castle citizens came to Richmond today for the sole purpose of inspecting the Hoosier Beauty. The new rose is of a deep scarlet shade, and unless inspected closely 1 the extreme weakness often results in impaired hearing, weakened eyesight, bronchitis and other troubles, but If Scott's EmuUon Is given promptly. It carries strength to the organs and creates rich blood to build up the depleted forces. CMUnb thrive on Scott EnraUoe.
