WALKERTON INDEPENDENT I] W. A. ENDLEY, Publisher WALKERTON, - INDIANA I It is just possible that yellow perils may neutralize each other. The Tennessee supreme court has | upheld the segregation which confines | saloons to certain city territory. "The horse must go." Sure, assents the Toledo Blade; quite often he must go out and haul the automobile out of the mud. A 14,000-horsepower plant operated i by tidal eneregy is to be established on the south bank of the Elbe, near Cuxhaven. If anybody but a naval expert had said that the naval marksmanship at I Santiago was bad it would have been flat treason. Floods along both the Pawpaw and the Maumee rivers make it seem probable that the whole family will be involved before the troubles are over. Some American girls, says the Chicago News, may feel that they just have to take counts and dukes. There : are not enough star baseball players to go around. An Englishman says American men j make ideal husbands. But, says the ' Chicago Record-Herald, ideal hus- | bands are not what American heiresses are looking for. The New York jury which decided upon its verdict by flipping a coin has succeeded in strengthening the popular impression that a jury verdict is generally more or less of a gamble. A gentleman cannot live on less than $50,000 a year, is the complaint ; of a New’ York bankrupt. There are : several thousand gentlemen here in Zanesville, says the Zanesville (O.) Signal, who live on less than that. Inspectors from Ellis Island are to go over the country to locate alien criminals. It seems to the average person that it would have been an easier proposition to have kept them in the first instance from locating at all. A baby hippopotamus valued at $5,000 was born a few days ago at the Central park zoo in New York city. Babies, it may be remarked, are not rated according to their beauty, but according to the exclusiveness of their station in society. A St. Louis preacher is quoted as asserting that kisses are “unpardonable under any circumstances before marriage.” Unpardonable or not there can be more variety in them before marriage than is consistent with discretion after that ceremony. A lady of social fame hired an agent to keep her name and doings out of the newspapers. The immediate result was a column article about the engagement, with a double-column picture of the retiring social light. Question:: Was the "repress” agent’s salary raised or lowered? A town containing 10,000 inhabitants has sprung up in Nevada during the dxtra to announce the fact that two respectable women had arrived. We extend hearty congratulations—not to the two ladies but to the town. New York city has $102,834,326 due for back taxes. This statement is vouched for by City Comptroller Metz. Os this amount $29,816,153 is in taxes assessed on real estate, $47,348,499 on personal property, $1,118,662 taxes on real estate owned by corporations, and $24,521,012 in special tax on franchises.

The United States government has granted a permit for the erection of a $1,000,000 power plant on the South Platte watershed, a short distance from Denver, Co., and has also given a right-of-way for the necessary transmission lines. The plant will permit the production of 20,000 electrical horsepower. “He never said ‘Go, boys,’ but always ‘Come, boys,’ ” was the splendid eulogy that Bishop Potter pronounced over the body of a New York fireman who lost his life on duty. But such heroism as his is not unusual in the fire department, for it is true, as the chief of the brave man says, that every fireman knows that he risks his life at every big fire, and he does his duty in spite of it. Texas by legislative act recently ceded to the T nited States a large territory in the Panhandle for a national park. If congress should accept the gift, the country will have another Yellowstone. The tract is 40 miles long and contains part of the Palo Duro canyon, a wild and mysterious gorge which has not been fully explored. Near the canyon is a pri- । vate herd of buffalo, which it is said । will be given to the government If it 1 takes the park. — Fresh air seem to be good for monkeys as well as for human beings. In ' the autumn of 1906 the Chicago health | commission suggested to the keeper ot the Lincoln park zoo that he put a pair of monkeys in the outdoor cage for the winter. The keeper thought ' that was a rash experiment, as monkeys seldom survive a single winter in ; Chicago, even with all the care that . can be given to them; but he pre- | pared the cage for them. The mon- : keys not only survived the outdoor air, but were in better health in the spring than those kept indoors. Mr. William H. Allen, secretary of the bureau of municipal research in New York city, said in a recent address: “Municipal government in America is a dead failure.” Os course, ' comments the Youth's Companion, this startling overstatement was qualified i in the rest of a careful, illuminating ' address, for it is the business of the ' bureau to help municipal government to avoid failure. The municipal government of Babylon is a dead failure because the city is dead. Cities • that are alive have not lived long j enough to fail.

SEA TO SEft SYSTEM LAST LINK IN HARRIMAN’S BIG CHAIN ALMOST DONE. LINE ACROSS CONTINENT

Opening of Illinois Central’s New Birm- । ing ham Division April 19 Completes Route from Atlantic to Pacific. Birmingham, Ala. — The official announcement by the Illinois Central that the new Birmingham division will be opened for traffic April 19 calls attention to the completion of the link in the great Harriman transcontinental route, for by controlling the Union Pacific, Illinois Central and Central of Georgia, this system will extend from the Pacific to the Atlantic. In addition to supplying the last link in this chain, the opening of the Haleyville branch will give the Illinois Central an inlet to the great coal and iron fields of Alabama with their immense annual tonnage. The Central of Georgia terminals here connect with those of the Illi- ! noic Central, thus giving a direct con- j nection from all Illinois Central points I i with the sea at Savannah over the I Central of Georgia. Connection of i the Illinois Central with the Unioji ' Pacific thus gives a complete system । ; from one ocean to the other. The connection is expected to benefit the southeastern states and to increase Savannah's Importance as a seaport, for in addition to making it the ter- j mlnal for much of Alabama’s coal and iron, it will receive much of the grain and other traffic of the Mississippi I valley. The Mobile & Ohio will open its new’ Birmingham branch on April 20 and present plans contemplate having the first trains over both lines reach Birmingham the same day. To this end the commercial organizations of Birmingham have planned an elaborate reception. The entrance of the Illinois Central has been accomplished by certain traffic arrangements and by the building of an entire new’ line from Corinth, Miss., to Haleyville, Ala., a distance of 80 miles. CONGRESS MAY QUIT MAY 9. Representative Watson of Indiana Predicts Early Adjournment. Washington.—That the present session of congress will adjourn on or about Saturday, May 9, was the prediction Sunday night of Representative James E. Watson of Indiana, Republican “whip” of the house. Mr. Watson bases this prediction upon information he has gathered as the result of a careful survey of the situation in the two houses of congress. During the past few days Mr. Watson has conferred with the leaders at both ends of the capitol in regard to adjournment, and all of them are anxious for an early date. He thinks there is ample time between now and May 9 for the completion of the legisCount Potocki of Austria Assassinated by Ruthenian Student Lemberg, Austria Hungary.—Count Andreas Potocki, governor of the Austrian Polish province of Galicia, was assassinated Sunday afternoon by a I Ruthenian student, Mieroslap Sjczynskl, while giving an audience to a delega- ’ tion of students. The assassin fired J three shots from a revolver, all iof which took effect. The governor I died soon afterwards, but first asked | his secretary to inform his majesty at ■ once. “Tell him," said the dying man, । “I was his most faithful servant.”

FIERCE RIOT IN PENSACOLA IMPORTATION OF STRIKE BREAKERS CAUSES BATTLE. Street Car Men from St. Louis Are Attacked and Fifteen of Them Are Beaten. Pensacola, Fla.—The bringing of a carload of strike breakers from St. Louis Friday afternoon by the Pensacola Electric company was the signal for rioting and disorder which resulted in the injury of 15 of the imported men. No sooner had the strike breakers arrived and started for the car sheds than a fight occurred between them and the sympathizers of the union men and from the corner of Palafox and Wright streets, where the first battle occurred, there was a continual riot in which bricks, bottles and shells were hurled at the strike breakers, and in turn the latter fired shots and used heavy sticks and bricks. For over an hour the riot continued, the strike breakers gradually getting nearer to the car barns, but before they reached there 15 had been wounded When near the car barns, so fierce was the onslaught on the body of imported men, that they separated and fled, 30 running into a negro’s house, I w’hile the remainder reached the car I barn and barricaded the doors. The i 30 men in the house barricaded the : doors and it took the police over an । hour to disperse the mob and remove I the men to places of safety. All night there were great crowds on the streets. The mayor has issued a proclamation closing all saloons and the board of public safety has ordered the marshal to swear in a sufficient number of deputies to quell the. disturbance. Seventy strike breakers were marched to tiu* city jail, where they were kept , Benjamin ^rnatlmial Ag-*te-preßidfta^ afreet ftaiTway Employes, Tna3^^m"*4 dress, urging the strikers to disperse and go to their homes quietly. BAD FLOODS IN SOUTHWEST. — One Man Killed and Traffic Impeded in Missouri.

Joplin, Mo.—One man killed, railroad traffic impeded, cave-ins on the electric and St. Louis & San Francisco lines near Joplin and mines in the Badger-Peacock district inundated, are some of the features of the flood that is sweeping southwest Missouri. Levi Sevier, a miner, was drowned in the

BOON FOR TOURIST' _____ TRAVEL NOW MADE POSSIBLE IN LAPLAND. New Luxury Supplied During the Three Summer Months—Only Railroad in the Polar Circle— Built to Carry Ona. A new itinerary is offered to the bored globe trotter. It is now possible for him to travel in Lapland, the land of the midnight sun, in a sleeping car. This luxury, however, is supplied only during the three summer months when tourists may be enticed to cross the polar circle and travel for 270 miles on the only arctic railroad yet built. This is the railroad that was first pushed north of the arctic circle to carry the iron ore of Gellivara down to the Baltic for shipment to Germany and England. A million tons of ore is hauled down to the port of Lulea every year, and much of it is stored there in winter awaiting the steamers that come when navigation opens. ■Within a few years the polar road has been extended 200 miles west of the Atlantic, where the ice free port of Narvik has been built. All passenger trains on one of the lines to the City of Mexico stop at a monument near the track, on which is inscribed in Spanish “The Tropic of Cancer.” Everybody gets out to see what the tropic looks like. So trains on this arctic railroad halt in the middle of a peat bog, where a board stands erect bearing the word “Poleirkeln.” The surroundings of the polar circle at the point where tourists see them are quite disappointing. But there is much worth seeing at the thriving town of Gellivara, and on the mountain near the town the midnight sun is visible from June sto July 11, or for 37 nights. It is the boast of the people of Gellevara that the midnight sun may be seen from their town for a longer time than at any other reasonably accessible spot, on the earth.

This is doubtless true. The polar circle has about the same position relative to Gellivara that it has to the Endicott mountains in Alaska, but the railroad makes it much easier to reach this Lapland town than any other spot where the midnight sun may be seen to equal advantage. The most remarkable object that the traveler sees on the trip to the Atlantic is Mount Kirunavara. 2.550 feet high and nearly two miles long. About 70 per cent, by weight of its rock is iron. In time the whole mountain will be dug away aud there will be a very deep hole where it now stands, । for it is all the richest kind of Lon ore: and there is estimated to be about 233,000,000 tons of it. The big mining town of Kiruna has grown up beside the iron mountain and six long trains every work day carry’ the ore to Narvik. Across the Lapland moors the scenery is monotonous, but it is of the finest character among the mounApproaches the Atlantic’ and few sights in Europe surpass that which is presented when Narvik, on the great Ofoten fiord, suddenly bursts into view and the swelling sails on the broad channel are seen a thousand •eet below the railroad.

NO ONE CAN ALWAYS AVOID ^BES^EEEE^^^I '-is WIIS3R WHS Pe-ru-na Pre-Pj - i On e Dose in I vents Catching^stbfc'r^lPy^^'l Time, Savos , Cold. Nins . Many people persist in riding on the street cars, insufficiently protected by i clothing. They start out perhaps in the heat of the day and do not feel the need of 5 < wraps. ’ | The rapid moving of the car cools the body unduly. When they board the £ ear perhaps they are slightly perspiring. When the body is in this condition it is J easily chilled. This is especially true when a person is sitting. < Beginning a street car ride in the middle of the day and ending it in the a evening almost invariably requires extra wraps, but people.do not observe these > precautions, hence they catch cold. ; , Colds are very frequent in the Spring on this account, and as the Summer > ! advances, they do not decrease. During the Spring months, no one should < ; think of riding on the car without being provided with a wrap. ! A cold caught in the Spring is liable to last through the entire Summer. Great caution should be observed at this season against exposure to cold. During the first few pleasant days of Spring, the liability of catching cold is great. No wonder so many people acquire muscular rheumatism and catarrhal dis- ' cases during this season. ; However, in spite of the greatest precautions, colds will be caught. \ At the appearance of the first symptom, Penina should be taken according > ; to directions on the bottle, and continued until every symptom disappears. Do not put it off. Do not waste time by taking other remedies. Begin at < I; once to take Peruna and continue taking it until you are positive that the cold C > has entirely disappeared. This may save you a long and perhaps serious illness < > later on. ' {

I took her to a doctor, and he pronounced it to be eczema of a very bad form. He treated her, but the disease spread to her back, । nd then the whole of her head was affected, and all her hair had to be cut off. The pain she suffered was excruciating, and with that and the heat and tingling her life was almost unbearable. Occasionally she was delirious and she did not have a proper hour's sleep for many nights. The second doctor we tried afforded her just as little relief as the first. Then I purchased Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and J ills, and before the Ointment was three-quarters finished every trace of the disease was gone. It really seemed like magic. Mrs. T. W.

An Irishman who served on board a man-of-war was selected by one of the officers to haul in a towline of con- । siderable length that was towing over the taffrail. After pulling in 40 or 50 fathoms, which had put his patience I severely to proof, as well as every muscle of his arms, he muttered to himself: “Surely it's as long as to-day and tomorrow. Its a good week's work for any five in the ship. Bad luck to the
