LION KILLS BEAR IN FIGHT.

Other Animals in the Cage Thrown . Into Panic., Brutus, the largest lion owned bythe Hagenbeck & Wallace show of Peru, Ind., killed a polar bear and created a panic at the show’s winter quarters at Peru late Wednesday afternoon. These two animals, together with a tiger, leopard, jaguar, a bloodhound and a hyena constitute a family of beasts being trained by John Helliott. Every afternoon they are put through a number of mafgelous stunts and it was while the bear was taking its seat beside the lion that it brushed against Brutus. W -* Quick as a flash the lion sprang on the bear and the growling which followed created a panic among the other animals in the iron cage. Helliott -t... . - s - - had hard work keeping out of their way. Finally he got to the door, which opens to the runway for th© animals, and he succeeded in driving all of them out except the lion and bear, which w/re rolling over and over, tearing each other’s flesh with teeth and claws. Helliott got a crowbar and tried to pry the lion’s mouth open and loosen its grip on the bear’s throat. In this he failed. He then lassoed the lion and finally got the rope around its throat,, thus choking it until it finally let go. The bear was bleeding from the breast and throat, yet it staggered to attack the choked lion. However the bear fell dead before it struck a blow. Helliott says this was the hardest battle he ever experienced.

Brother Writes Letter for Sister’s Birthday Anniversary.

Quite a number of friends and relatives, there being sixty in all, gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph S. Williams, near Aix, Saturday, March 27, in memory of her fiftieth birthday. All partook of a bountiful dinner and everybody bad a pleasant time. Her sister, Mrs. Sol Norman, of Parr, was present, but neither of her two brothers could be there, James Adair living in Idaho, and the other, George Adair, of Chicago Heights, 111., has been in very poor health ever since the latter part ot November and was unable to be there. His daughter, Hattie, came and brought a letter which he requested to be read after the blessing was asked. The following is a copy of the letter:

He requested them to bow .their heads while the first part was being read. , *-\- “Our Father which art in Heaven, I thank Thee that Thou hast let us live to see this fiftieth birthday of our dear sister. We -thank Thee for h®f mother-' hood and for the family Thou hast given Jjer. Father in Heaven, bless these boys and girls that she has reared to womanhood and manhood. They have gathered here at the old homestead today to pay due respect to Mother. We believe they are fulfilling Thy word, Oh God, when' Thou said “Honor thy Father and Mother.” Father, make them lights in the world and a mark for others to a better world thah this. Dear Father, bless this father and mother of this home, grant that many birthdays may come to them while they are going down the western slope of time. Bless all that; are here today. This we ask in Jesus’ name—

Dear Sister Mtthala: —In my affliction I rejoice with you, I can't be with you today, yet I send you my greetings and best wishes. I am thankful God has kept us for a half century. He has been very good apd kind to us. He has given us a nice family of boys and girls that we need not be ashamed of. Although He has, taken some of the lambs from each of us to His fold, this gives us strong ties in Heaven. And you are fifty years old today. I see ths gray hairs appearing. What does this mean?—lt means that our heads are silvering for the grave, to soon go and meet father and mother, who have gone before. Thte Is all right if we have made our peace with God. Thte I have done and I hope you have long ago. Now I would like to be with you and partake of the bounties that are spread before you. I would have come If I had been able to come. My health is improving slowly and steadily. I think I will be able to get out by the middle of AprlL I would like to meet all qf -the relatives, old friends and neighbors that have met with you on this occasion. I will now say Good Bye by shaking hands across the miles. I ever remain Tour brother, GEORGE DeWitt** Little Early Risers, the best known pills and the beet pill* made, are easy to take and act gently and are certain. We sell and recommend them.

NO ODD CHANGE

WHlbe~ Given on Trains According to a New Law. ’* ’ ' John F. McClure, of the Indiana rail road commission,'' has explained the amendment to the 2-cent fare law which was enacted by the last legislature. Tills amendment provides that when tickets are not bought at stations an extra charge of 10 cents may be made on each trip. There is another provision to the effect that the fare shall be that multiple of five nearest obtained by multiplying the distance by the rate. The question arose as to whether this latter provision should apply on all fares, or merely when fares were paid on trains. Mr. McClure held that it would apply in the cases of all fares. Thte provision will do away with odd. change. For example, if the distance is fourteen miles, the fare will be 30 cents Instead of 28 cents as under the old law. The result obtained by multiplying the distance by the rate would be 28, and the multiple of five nearest 28 would be 30. This would mean a gain of 2 cents for the railroad companies. It the distance were sixteen miles, though, the fare would be 30 cents instead of 32 cents as under the old law, and on this distance the railroad companies would lose 2 cents. It Is said the provision will not serve to increase* or decrease the earnings of the railroad companies appreciably. The effect of this provision will be most noticeable to the man who travels a specified distance many times' each year. For example, if a man traveled the 14-mile distance, roup'd trip daily one year.he would be loser to the extent of sl2 or sls.

Our quondam friend Lawshe, erstwhile “big injun” of the Converse Journal, having graduated from the buckwheat circuit and ascended untd a fat job at the government crib, where he can send out beautiful specimens of job printing at government expense, now remembers his former estate only to give it a thrust under the fifth rib. Lawshe is third assistant postmaster general and is sending ont circulars and samples imploring the public to get their envelopes printed at Washington, apparently forgetting that business men prefer patronizing the home printer. Like all mail order concerns Lawshe'holds out the inducement of bargain prices, but by the time the public defrays all the expenses of advertising Lawshe’s scheme it will be found that the stamped envelope proposition is a snare and a delusion, which is also similar to mail order decoys, except that the latter pay their own printing bills. Lawshe seems to belong to a 'class of fellows whose biggest ambition is to keep their names constantly and conspicuously before the public regardless ot government expense of the injustice done to tradesmen. It would probably have been less costly to have kept Lawshe in the Philippines—if his maintenance must de* pend oh national support.—Monon News.

Qualifications of Riflemen During the Year 1908.

General Orders, No. 1, 1909, have just been Issued from the office of the Assistant Adjutant-General, showing the figure of merit of all members of the militia of*the state that competed on rifle range during the year ended Dec. 31,1908. Not many of the local company fired pn range, as no range was provided for’this company until after the season had closed. Hpwever for the limited opportunities the showing to not bad. No member of the locan company attained the expert marksmanship, but Sergeant John B. Gangloff missed it by only a shade and was; the first of 62 in the state who qualified as sharpshooters. He was the only sharpshooter in the local company, but eight members qualified as marksmen, in the following order: Sergeant Earl Chestnut 19th, Capt. Geo. H. Healey 77th, Lieut. Woodworth 142nd, Private Ray Harrington 143rd, Private Don Warren 233rd, Private William C. Steel 254th, Private Terrance Thompson 336th, find Lieut. James E. Brenner 337th. Orders have also been received from headquarters to begin the 1909 range practice as soon as possible after April Ist, and the range "at Parr will at once be put into condition. A three days’ competition ■’will probably be held in May to determine the team that will represent Co. M at the - N battalion match in June. The local company should make a better showing this season than they did last.

"While trying a case at Kokomo against Blaine Record, charged with assault and battery upon his wife, Judge R. M. Cooper Interrupted the testimony long enough to inform the witness that he was a “damnable liar.” Record had testified that his wife fell down and that he had not knocked her down, when the court interposed with the query, “Do you know what this court thinks? It thinks you are a damnable liar.” Record was sentenced to jail for sixty days and fined $25.

It’s A Top Notch Doer.

—Great deeds compel regard. The world crowns its doers. That’s why the American people have crowned Dr. King’s New Discovery the King of Throat and Lung remedies. Every atom Is a haltb force. It kills germs, and colds and la grippe vanish. It heals cough-racked membranes and coughing stops. Sore, inflamed bronchial tubes and lungs are cured and

hemorrhages cease. Dr. Geo. More, Black Jack, N. C., writes “it cured me of lung trouble, pronounced hopeless by all doctors.” 50c, SI.OO. Trial bottle free. Guaranteed by A. F. Long. The saloon men at Indianapolis have been advised to clean up and obey the laws so that they will not be wiped out of existence. Saloon men generally determine to “get good” when the temperance people get after them with a sharp stick. Remorse follows exposure; false respect lor law precedes it.

to A. A. Chisholm, of Treadwell, N. Y., now.

How to Gurß Bowels Ref«tar ttid Yw Stomach Sweet People sometimes imagine when they have liver trouble or are bilious that We main thing to do Is to take phyatoiß-' -’ > Taking pills and keeping your bowels regular are two very different matters. The use of a violent cathActto does not mean the cure of constipation or-the establishment of regular movements. A physic is an emergency remedy, but nerer a bowel treatment. If the bowels do not move regularly there is a- reason deeper seated than the mere clogging up that lb removed by a dose of salts or pills, a When that drowsy, tired feeling, with the coated tongue, the dull head pains, the sour stomach, the sallow complexion, constipated bowels and touches of fever come on It Is time to take a medicine that will act on the bowels gently and mildly, cleansing and strengthening them, stir up the liver and aid the stomach In digesting the food. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin does this every time. Take a few dosee»and see how quickly the drowsy feeling leaves, regular bowel movements come back, Witte a good appetite and perfect digestton, and you soon feel like your old self. It does not gripe nor pain, it acts smoothly, mildly and is very pleasant to take. Wm.
