Political Gossip

' far as has heen learned here, :yron It. Miller, candida.te for th republican nomination for sheriff, is the only political aspirant who retired from the St. Joseph county lists Friday, the tinal day for withdrawal1. Liwrence Romlne ott the representative race on the democratic ticket Thursday. Flmer I. FrandenburK of Ham mond last Saturday sent a declaration of his candidacy to the secretary of state for the progressive nomination for state senator from what lie contend is a new district composed of Lake. lorter. Jasper und Newton counties? The la.st legislature, in redisricting the 5tate for legislative purposes, threw these four counties, into a joint senatorial district, some of thern. of course, having other senatorial districts within their borders. Sen. Iiwight Kinder of Clary was elected prior to the last general assembh- as a state senator from the former Joint district of Iike and Porter c ounties. Kinder is a republican and was elected in 1914. The secretary of state sent the declaration of Itrandenburj? hack to him with the ruling that there was no baearicy existing" n the district from which the candidate sought to make the rnce. State senators, onw elected, hold oMice four years. IJrandenburg- may fight the ruling, it is said, and the secretary's otlice has returned all papers in the casft officially so that lirandenburg may make a test of the situation, if he so desires. Several St. Joseph county republicans are in Terro Haute today for the Lincoln, league conference being held there. Among those who left for Terre Haute last night are: W. A. ;M'ck, St. Joseph county chairman; Jr. im (J. Yeagley, president of the St. JcMeph county IJncoln league; Stanley Stephenson, its secretary; D. 1. uieth and Paul Frankel. Florida republicans at a meeting at I'alatka named a state ticket, candidates for the congress, and 12 delegates to the national convention to be held in Chicago. The Chicago delegates go uninstructed. The convention tudiously refrained from any expression of presidential preferences. It was evident the republicans of Florida favor reconciliation with progressives. Alabama republicans have decided on a state convention at Birmingham May IT. when delegates to the national convention will be named. At a meeting of the state executive committee no mention of presidential candidates was made. Hep. Will 11.' Wood has been chosen to take the place of Thomas II. Shipp, who resigned for business reasons, a.s the Indiana member of the national republican campaign committee. Shipp said he felt the place should be held by one of the Indiana congressmen who would be able to give more time to the work of the committee. 0 W. II. Ripley, Indianapolis lawyer, and a republican candidate for precinct committeeman, has filed a challenge and . protest of the candidacy of Faul Kabrick, a rival aspirant. He holds Kabrick is not qualified to ote at the primary in that rather than being a member of the republican party, he has always opposed it. and that, too. lie has never registered or voted in Marion county. F.fforts are being made by supporters of Quincy A. Myers of Lotfaiisport to gather in the Lake county support c onceded K. O. Johnson of (Jury, who retired from the gubernatorial lists. James I, Goodrich adherents are also on the trail of Johnson aid and are flooding Lake county with large display advertising. Yes. and Warren T.

DP CITY IS DEAD Benjamin W. Perkins, One Time Superintendent of Gas and Fuel Co. Here. Benjamin W. Perkins, for a number of years superintendent of the South Fend (las & Fuel Co., died at Hartford. Conn., Friday. Mr. Perkins had been a well-known resident of the city for some time prior to his leaving for the east. Mr. Perkins left South Fend for Altoona, Pa., about 12 years ago, and from Altoona went to Hartford. He had come to South Fend in 1S71 and in 11 had been made superintendent of the gas company. Mr. Perkins was born in London, I'ngland. Sept. 27. 18Ö9. the son of Benjamin U. Perkins, an expert gas j manufacturer. Until eight years of age he lived in Ixmdon. and in 18 87, with his parents, came to America, locating at Springfield, 111. In 1S72 the family removed to Frankfort, Ind.. and in 176 Mr. Perkins came to South Bend, where he entered the employ of the gas company, learning every phase of the manufacture of gas prior to his appointment as superintendent in 1881. Mr. Perkins, while here, was a member o'f some of the largest gas manufacturers' societies in the country, and editor of the novelty advertising department of the Ohio (las L!ght association. He has contributed valuable articles to several magazine regarding the manufacture of gas. While here Mr. Perkins lived at S 4 3 Colfax a v.. BUILDS CAKE IN SHAPE OF U. S. SHIELD In honor of the birthday of Abraham Lincoln, Feb. 12, the Washington restaurant has prepared for its Washington st. window a novel and beautiful display which goes far toward conveying to all who sec it a spirit of deepest patriotism for the United States. A mammoth cake, covered with a colored sugar frosting, and portraying the shield of the United States, with its 4 8 stars of white on a field of blue nnd its 13 stripes in red and white, the display is the work of M. Theophila, chef of the Washington restaurant, who is a sculptor of pastry. Mr. Theophila has made roses which, mixed with natural flowers, could not be selected as imitations. Busts of people are also to his credit. As he learned the art of sugar moulding, so lie holds it. Years ago, when a youth in Athens, where at one time he was chef of the Great Britain hotel, he was taught the art by a Syrian. It is the code of the craft to teach only those in whom a great interest is felt, and Mr. Theophila says he has still to lind someone to whom he will divulge the secret process by which the sugar coating is formed. It is lean and can be eaten. The cake, which bears the famous tribute to Lincoln. "Charity toward all. and Malice toward none." was the work of 1 ft hours' application. It is surrounded by an dive wreath, picturing, as the artist explainer, "the country of peace."
