?APER FOR THE PEOPLE.
MAN ABOUT TOWN.
A few days ago the jail officials found a couple of razors in the possession of prisoners and when "Kid" Girard was being removed to the penitentiary a large knife was taken from him. He had made threats that he would commit murder or suicide rather than go to prison. It would seem that the jail management is utterly incapable of preventing the smuggling of forbidden articles. The Bruce affair was the sensational incident of this kind. Those fifty or sixty saws were smuggled in manner wholly inexcusable. The true story of the scandalous affair has never been printed.
One of the depositions taken in Muncie to be used in the vaccination pro ceeding in the court here was that of a physician who is opposed to vaccination but who said that he had no fear of small pox because he could diagnose a case by the use of his powers as a clairvoyant.
Dr. Eddy's resignation as president of Ruse Polytechnic was accepted by the board of managers Tuesday and will take effect September 1st.
Gus Conztnan got so used to being where money is stacked up like lumber in a lumber yard that he was constrained to accept the position of cashier in a bunk.
President McKeen's illness is going to force him to do that which he never bad any inclination to do heretofore, which is to take a vacation trip. He is going to Florida. Mr. McKeen has been an exception among rich men in his indifference to the pleasures of traveling about the vacation resorts. When he sold the Vandalia road to Ives a few years ago, he was asked if he intended making up for lost time in this respect. He replied tiiat ho would be contented traveling to and from Edgewood farm.
The Peoria Woolners who are said to bo interested in another anti-trust distillery are the people who act as middlemen in buying up these anti-trust disi ti(lories for the trust. When Georjje Woolsey, the ostensible head of the one in process of erection here, sold out to the truHt at Des Moines he did so through a Woolner. You can't always tell what the gamo is when you all see trust and anti-trust men eugaged in it. Nor do they feel under any obligation to tell the ruth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth when they talk about distillery or trust affairs. That it is a ime of big hazard, in which there is more or less of the confidence game, oven the men engaged in it do not deny.
Joe Kim, ho that until recently was a heathen, is not slow in catching on to the ways of the shrewd advertiser. Joe went into the Baptist church tank, and immediately afterward it wasannounced that he Is to havo a tea store. If Joe were the agent of a star actress ho would be above such transparent advertising as sensational stories of stolen diamonds.
Mr. K. R. Harlow, who has been assistant to Goneral Superintendent Hill of the Vandalia, i* to come hero to enter theofliceof General Manager Williams. He has a wife and two children. He is small in stature and is a native of England. The name of Colonel Hill's successor as general superintendent will be made known about the tirst of next month. It is Man About Town's guess that N. lv. Elliott will be the man.
Did you know there is a national association of tlorists by reason of which you ate enabled to select flowers in Terre Haute, for instance, and have them delivered in Philadelphia a few hours later? Man About Town heard a gentleman at John Heinl's ordering {lowers sent ?o the homo of a Philadelphia friend who had died. The purchaser concludes the transaction here and the tlorists do the rest.

Colonel Thompson this week had another of the peculiar "sinkiug spells" of which he has had not less than twenty. 'The attack is of the nature of a momentary suspension of animation. He falls to the tloor but in a few minutes he is entirely recovered, and singularly enough feels better the next few days tlmu before the attack. Apparently his physical system is rested by reason of the suspended action of the physical machinery. The colonel says he would have no objectiou to the attacks did he not dislike the idea of "taking a turn-
hie" now and then without warning. _____ Kdinond Russell, the exponent of phys- Munsey's Magaxine is having a pbeical culture, permits himself to fall nomenal sale.

the question of the banker's constitutional privilege to refrain from giving evidence that would incriminate himself, the contention being that his bank books, inspected by the grand jury, are his private property, and therefore an indictment found on information obtained from them is not good. There has been a good deal of legal hair splitting on the point the prosecution holding that the court is not supposed to know how the indictments were found and in any event that the grand jury and the court have a right to make use of the books of an assignor. To the unlearned in the law the plea is a ridicu lous technicality. As has been suggested, the death inflicting pistol of a man charged with murder could not fce used in evidence because it is his personal property. Judge White will make known his decision probably next week
Postoffice Inspector Fletcher who was here Thursday to attend the preliminary hearing of Postmaster Miller, of Macksville, who is charged with embez zlement of |700 *f government money, told of an experience he had with a postmaster in a town about the size of Macksville in the northern part of the state Fletcher wa9 checking up the office's books and as the amount of the apparent shortage was steadily increasing Fletcher said: "You have got yourself in a bad box, old man the penitentiary doors are wide open for you." "All right," said the P. M., whose imperturbability puzzled the inspector, "You go on and get through with those book8,".in atone which might have been a defiance or a dogged determination to meet his fate. The total amount due the government was §4,300, and when Fletcher gave the figures the P. M. set to work prying up the floor under which the f4,300 had been deposited. He was an honest but ignorant man and misundorstood the printed instructions for postmasters in towns where there is no bank. He had been selling money orders, as did Miller, and thus received a good deal of money which he supposed he was to keep until Uncle Sam sent an agent to get it.
Judge Taylor has made an order requiring more attention to the sufficiency of the bonds of guardians, administrators, and others who are held responsible in probate affairs. The comment is made that it would be well for the court to insert an exaction in the bond, were such a proceeding permissible, binding some of those who are called upon to glvo bond in these matters to hasten a final settlement.

Thursday afternoon President Brown, ex-President Ross Hawkins and Manager Rouser of the Columbia club were hero, tho guests of the Terro Haute club. They said the club house is as well arranged as any they had ever visited. They gave the officers of the club anyice, based on their experience, in regard to catering and the management ot tho cafe and bouflet which are soon to be added to the accommodations. Liquors are to be sold but under careful restrictions. President Young says there are now about 240 members, '200 under the original organization who paid #100 membership fee and $2 a month dues and who have an ownership interest in the property. Members are now taken in at 310 and pay $2 monthly dues but they have only the privilege of the club. Dr. Young says the club is doing well, that it is now "standing up with its boots on," which means that though it has been ill it is recovering and gaining strength. The talk of consolidation with the Fort Harrison club has been abandoned. It is gossip that when a committee of the Terre Haute club callcd at the Fort Harrison club rooms to discuss the proposition Mr. Minshall, as chairman of the Fort Harrison committee, stated the position of his club. It was to accept the Terre Haute club membership, retain the name of "Fort Harrison," incorporate, and take the Ohic street property. That was the last of the negotiations.
