He is receiving a large amount of milk from the cows, which he Js marketing here and In Indianapolis.

Landis stopped off at Delphi to see the ex-congressman. He found him Beated on a load of brick driving a steady team, and headed for his farm about a mile and a half from town. On being questioned Mr. Landis declared he had never before so enjoyed himself as in these recent days upon his 325 acre farm. “I’m hauling brick to build a fire place,” said he. “I’m going to make it big and wide, so I can pile big chunks of wood in it. Then these long winter evenings I’ll draw my chair up close, take a chew of fine-cut and spit in the fire. Can you imagine anything more ideal?” And his visitor admitted it was an attractive picture. After all, power, fame, money, responsibility, society, none of these satisfy like the simple pleasures within reach of all. Since the first of the year Mr. Landis has made lar lectures.

The taxpayers will finally be called upon to make amends for thi failure of the city to suppress the hoodlums, who had things practically at their mercy until federal troops arrived, after which order was immediately restored. The case decided was that of the Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis railway company against the city of Chicago and involved SIOO,OOO.
