A telegram was received by Frank Cannon Friday announcing the death of Charles Stewart at Terre Haute. Mr. Stewart was well known to a number of Greencastle people. He was In the employ of the Big Four for some months having charge of the commissary here, In company with his brother. Billy Stewart, during the building of the new right of way. Mr. Stewart leaves a wife and two children. x
Gen. Jesse M. Lee, whose denial of the purpor* *1 Interview pnb’! hed .. the Indianapolis Star and later copied In the local Repubh an palter, lias appeared in these columns, before he left expressed g: eat disgust with the Star for not correcting its false and malicious statements. The Star had been notified >y the General that the Interview was false and untrue, and had also notified Ludlow himself of this fact. No expression of regret for the misstatement had reached him up to the time of his departure, nor has any correction of the interview appeared in either of the papers that used the interview. This is evidence of the desire on the part of the Star to misrepresent for political purposes, and still further discredits the already discreditable column run by Ludlow. The General looks upon the whole affair as a most contemptible political trick. In speaking of the lack of eourttny and honesty on the part of the Star Gen. Lee stated further' that the l nsis of his personal regard for Mr. Taft was the fact that it was Mr. Taft who gave him his promotion, and further Taft was governor of the Philippines while Gen. Lee was on duty there, and the two men often came in contact. In spite of all this the General reiterated, before he went away, the statement that he could not indorse Taft's political views, and certainly did not indorse the Republican state ticket.

The device at the head of the Republican ticket Is an eagle. Tne Democratic ticket Is In the first column, the Republican ticket Is in the second column, and so on. Below is a sample of the heading of the Democratic and Republican Eleo tor&l and State tickets, with the respective party devices. In the order In which they will appear on the ballot.

How To Gain Flesh Persons have been known to gain a pound a day by taking an ounce of Scott’s Emulsion. It is strange, but it often happens. Somehow the ounce produces the pound; it seems to start the digestive machinery going properly, so that the patient is able to digest and absorb his ordinary food which he could not do before, and that is the way the gain is made. A certain amount of flesh is necessary for health; if you have not got it you can get it
