WANT HIGHER RATE FOR INMATES MEALS

David Esteb, son-in-law of Mrs. George H. Smith, who has offered her life estate and the cost of condemnation proceedings in the Smith homestead to the county for a tuberculosis sanitarium, explained today that two grandsons, Harold and Lloyd Smith, of Indianapolis, will lose nothing by the transactions,, although the estate of their deceased father, Louis, has a half interest.

"I fear the public will think we are taking something from the" grandsons." said Mr. Esteb. "This Is not the case. Mr. Smith gave his wife a life estate in his property, after which it is to go to Mrs. Esteb and the estate of Louis Smith. He specified in his will that the homestead is to be appraised at the time of his widow's death, and Mrs. Esteb is to take it as credit on her share of the estate. "As It is part of the estate which cannot be settled until Mrs. Smith's death, it will be necessary for the boys . to sign the conveyance unless condemnation proceedings are instituted."

COMSTOCK BACKS RALSTON'S PLAN

SHELBYVILLE, Ind., Jan. 19. Judge Daniel W. Comstock of Richmond, Sixth District representativeelect, was a guest of the Chamber of Commerce at a luncheon hero Thursday. He gave a half-hour talk on charities and corrections, making reference to the suggestion of former Governor Ralston that the management of all charitable and benevolent institutions of the state be governed by a central board of trustees in the interest of economy. He said he could find no fault with such a plan if it proved economical, and did not lose sight of the humanitarian principles that should rule in the care of the institutions.

This is a month of rare value giving the month that you can get more for your money than any other time. January heads the list. It is the first month of the year and the first month for true value giving everywhere and in D

Hold of military operations there have been few activities of Importance. : This holds true of the Franco-Bel-Eian front where the quiet has been broken recently only by the British activities north of tho Sorame, which have resulted in advances for them recently near Boaucourt-Sur-Ancre. Indications are not lacking, however, that the present comparatively pacific conditions are not likely to endure long and in this connection the southern sectors of the line is being closely watched.

Concentrate Men on Border.

The French here occupy a consider

able section of Alsace, the fighting line touching the Swiss border between r.clfort and Hafel. Concentration of masses .of German troops across the line from Basel has recently been reported in Swiss newspapers and a belief is raid to exist in Switzerland that the Germans contemplate an offensive with the object of freeing Alsace of tho invaders. The Swiss Federal council early this week, while expressing confidence that none of the powers contemplated a violation of Swiss neutrality, ordered the mobilization of additional troops as a measure of precaution. Both German and France assured Switzerland recently that they would cqntinue to respect her neutrality. No further news of the whereabouts of the German sea raider which has been Rinking entente ships in the South Atlantic has been received but

the arrival at Cape Verde Islands of the British 6teamer Yarrowdale, with the crews of eight of the ships disposed of by the raider, said to number 400 persons, is reported in unofficial advices received at Rio Jane'rio." Neither Berlin nor . Petrograd today report any notable change as the refult of the fighting in Roumania. The .Germans, according to their report, repulsed attacks north of the Suchitza valley, on the Moldavian frontier. German long range guns, the Russian statement announces, are bombarding Ocna, an Important town on the Lateral railway behind the Russian front in southwestern Moldavia, doubtless with the object of interfering with Russian transportation on this line. In eastern Galicia the Germans took the offensive in the sector near Zborow east of Lemberg, but according to Petrograd were repulsed after they had succeeded in penetrating the HnMnn' ifnes nt one point. !
