He has been chosen minister of war in the reorganization of the Spanish cabinet. Anything that has war attached to it just agrees vilh the Weyler disposition.

It is understood that when the block is rinished Mr, Morss will fvegin the publication of an afternoon paper. Editor George Kay, of Shelby-ville, has been refused a new trial and has been sentenced to prison for an indeterminite period of not less than two years.

This is the culmination of a hard effort to meet out justice to a party boss who connived with commissioners to plunder the county. Ex-lresident Harrison seems determined to have the people of this country understand that lie don't like McKinley's administration and that he is a disappointed man. There have been politicians who could keep their personal pijues to themselves, but the ex-president is not one of them that's plain. Warsaw Times. The contrast between the house an the senate during the present session of the legislature has been a little more marked than usual, but in lesser degree the same difference has been noted for years.

The senate is the radical anil the careless body, while the house is the conservative branch of the legislature. This is directly contrary to the the ory on which our legislatures are built, but it is becoming true in all state legislatures and in the congress as well. Indianapolis Press. An English writer in an address recently delivered defined character as follows: "Character is formed by cultivating a taste for what is true, good and fair; a love of jus tice, honesty and kindness, for rev eience, modesty and courage; loathing for dirt, physical and moral, in thought, word and deed a scorn of lies, hypocrisy and cant; by fill ing the young with profound faith in the worth and sacredness of life, by helping them to feel how devine a thing it is to be alive when one hat hop and enthusiasm, is chaste and loving, wise and hopeful.

-Indi- anapoli- News. The senate this afternoon passed Kiuse bill No. relatiuff to drainage, and house bill No. 2'7, prohibiting the sale of adulterated leitilizers. The retail grocers of this city say that an attempt is being made to smother house bills 1- and 127 and enate bills and by the commit tee to which the bills were referred.

Fne bills aie amendments to the pres et garnishee law. There was a grand rush on the part ol members of the legislature today and the rush will continue tomorrow to get et measures linally pasted. The hurry is occasioned by Governor Durbin's announcement that he will not receive bills passed after tomorrow. The con stitution of the state provides that "no bills shall be, presented to the governor within two days next previous to the final adjournment of the general as- sernblv." The senate this afternoon passed house bill No. 150, which creates a state board of embalmers.

Senator Keeney, who formerly was an undertaker, says the bill is vtry unfair to the country undertakers, who know how to embalm but can scarcely pass the examination required. It was said today that railroad com panies have already made preparations to appeal to the courts if the Neal rnile miieage bill should become a law. The chauces, however, of the bill's passing the senate are not bright, and the railroad attorneys who have been fight ing it said they were confident that they had enough votes to defeat it. It was understood that Senator Dausman was preparea to move me lnaennite postponement of the bill if an elTort should te made to advance it to third reading. Mr.

Neal, author of the meas ure, said this afternoon that he bad enough votes in the senate to pass it if fie could get it before that body. Tli Wheat. A few days ago there was a Hurry on the board of trade at Chicagocaused by the report that the cold weather follow ing the disappearance of the snow all over the northwest, had seriously In jured the wheat prospects. In this part of Indiana we have heard no special complaints; but an injury to the wheat harvests would be a serious matter, for there has already been two successive failures in this part of the state, the last one almost a total loss of the crop. .11 ut Tay I The new postal laws are such that newspaper publishers can arrest any one for fraud who takes a paper and refuses to pay for it.

Under the law the man who allows hia subscription to run along for some time unpaid, and then orders it discontinued, or orders the postmaster to mark it refused, and have a postal card sent notifying the publisher, leaves himself liable to ar rest and fine, the same as for theft. The authorities notice that a steady stream of negroes hsve been pouring northward since the outbreaks against the blacks in the southern part of the state.

At a meeting of the board of directors of the Logansport Co-Operative association the following resolutions were passed unanimously: Kesolved, That this association Iparns with th deepest regret of the defeat in the state senate of the Mets-ker anti-trading-stamp bill, known as house bill No.

4i, which has been up in our Btate legislature, and to secure the passage of which, delegates from this association have been in attendance at the meeting of the legislature during the past ten days. We condemn the means adopted by those who opposed the measure order to secure its defeat, and severely censure those senators who permitted themselves to be in ilu "need from whatever cause, to vote for the continuance of a system which we regard as pernicious and injurious alike to both merchant and customer. We also severely censure the president ot the senate, who, while tilling position high in authority in this state, so used his position as to countenance, uphold and assist in the methods above mentioned in connection with the defeat of the bill in question. We appreciate the help extended and wish to give due credit to those senators, who, while being slightly in the minority, voted for the passage of the bill and honorably resisted the great pressure brought to bear upon them to betray their constituents. It is further resolved, That these minutes, together with a schedule of the vote which defeated the measure, be made a matter of record and also be published in our local papers and a copy be sent to each county seat in the Logansport Reporter.

con (luiiDs. limn Hitiiolinc Ihem To Tay License mikI stamp Aitidt. A bill of general importance passed the senate Wednesday afternoon in regard to goods made by onvict labor. It was introduced by Representative Dudley and has now passed both branches. It, provides that firms that handle convict-made goods shall pay a license of 500 a year to the state, and that the goods shall be stamped to show that they are convict-made.

In a bill on this subject was signed by the governor, but the law was never enforced. It is said that it was unconstitutional, because it did not apply to convict goods made in Indiana as well as other states. The bill passed Wednesday applies to all. Attorney Al Higgins, of Terre Haute, says the 6tate has been flooded with convict-made goods despite the act of lS'jr. It is said not to be generally known that the bill passed Wednesday includes goods made in Indiana institutions.

Dame's New Plan. Notre Dame is to depart from the conservative policy of half a century and accept changed educational conditions as other institutions are doing. At a meeting of the entire collegiate faculty board Tuesday the question was voted on concerning the admission without special examination to the freshman classes of graduates of high schools of certain cities. The majority of the faculty were in favor of the in novation and a committee was appointed to prepare a list of high schools whose curricula were sufficiently advanced. The Latin requirements were also modified.

Notre Dame requires more Latin from candidates for bach elor degrees than does any other institution in the country, and the faculty considered favorably the plan of lessen ing the amount of Latin required and substituting in Me place additional work in French, Spanish or German. The changes will probably go into effect next fall. Timr for Artlon. Walkerton Independent: Jlefore burglars steal the town and carry it away with them some extra measure should be taken to catcb the gang. which is evidently composed partly, if not entirely, of local characters.

Burg laries are becoming entirely too numerous. The thieves with each successful haul become bolder, and if allowed to continue uninterruptedly it may be but a question of time until some good citizen may meet his death at the hands of these ruffians. There are some desperately bad char acters somewhere around alkerton and our citizens should go prepared for any emergency that may arise. It is time to perfect some kind of an organization for a systematic defense against this gang of burglars. It may prove a very expensive thing if we allow mat ters to continue at loose ends.

A lio eftan Ifill. A bill in which iiishop White and the Kpiscopal diocese of Michigan City is vitally concerned is before the legislature and bids fair to become a law. It was introduced by Represen tative Harris, of South Bend, and au thonzes any diocese of the Protestant Kpiscopal church in Indiana to form a corporation to administer and die poee of property. The bill is to en able the Michigan City diocese to lesallv hold or convey real estate through its proper officers. The meas ure has passed the house and has been favorably reported in the senate.

Representative James will probably be appointed on the board of tax com missioners to succeed Parka Hartlo, but he is probably the most unpopular i represent itive with his own party that ever served in tho house, lie has acted with the republicans during the whole session aud was given more consideration by the speaker than was uivt-r any republican member of the house. It would be welt for James to get what he can from the republican administration, as he is a "dead one" with the democrats. The primary election Substitut in- Jtroduced by Senator pisued the hoose today and will become a law. The democrats generally lined up agaiust the measure. Representative Neal said today at noon that he will not be able to get his bill for a railroad ticket for the senate.

Mr. Davis alluded to James as "my bi-partisan friend from l'utnam and jou want to be careful bow you spell the word Mr. James has been accused of playing into the hands of the republicans for a place on the state tax board. The house this afternoon, by a vote of to concurred in the senate amendments to the Minturn bill, which means that the Joss bill was swallowed by the republicans of the house, and this pretense at pi Unary election reform will become.

The republican bosses secured a majority conference report on the Joss bill by the use of their willing friend, James, a democrat, who has been roundly denounced by his brethren in the Indianapolis Tress. Till: kann- int un. "I ncle Sam" the Vl-tiiu ol" I'ihc- ti hI Joker in lii; the I'lMtfS. The "jackass bill" is the name ap plied to the series treasury note of the 10 denomination, says an article in the Chicago Chronicle.

The government was made the victim of a practical joker, an Knglishraan and an engraver in the bureau of engraving and printing. The head of the bureau discharged the engraver for cause and gave him the usual month's notice, and the latter decided upon a cold-blooded revenge upon the eagle. He was working on the uew plates for the S10 bill and by a deft handling of the lights and shadows of the eagle he produced the jackass. From an artistic point of view his work is excellent. It is the pefection of puzzle creation.

The head and neck of the eagle, which has a peculiar twist, furnished the head of the jack. Tt light shading at the base of the wing becomes a perfect eye from the other view point. The thighs of the eagle form the ears of the jack. ilCUWTII OT AMKK1CA. Will Dotiltlt I'oiMiIat in in tlit Next Thitly-Kiglit Yearn.

The United states is increasing in population faster thau any other country in the world with au exception that of Australia. The natural in crease of population that is, the sur plus of births over deaths is at a rate which will double the census of the year loyu in just inirty-eignt years from that date. The same number of years, at the present rate of increase, will double the population of Aus tralia. The lowest rate of increase among civilized nations is shown by bpain. That country must limp along for 17 years to double her present population at the present rate of increase which is but 4.2 per cent, or only souls per year.

The Kmerald Isle is the next lowest among nationalities, Ireland's increase being only 5 per cent, at which rate it will take 140 years to double the number of Irishmen on the "ould sod." CAMI'AKiN AGAINST SALOONS. Fight at North ManrlieMvr Will Itepin Next Month. The campaign of the religious bodies and temperance people against the saloonkeepers of North Manchester will begin at the April term of the commissioners court. There are 1,400 voters in Chester township and under the Nicholson act a majority of these must sign remonstrances against the granting of licenses. The movement is broad in its scope and contemplates the securing of signatures to a protest against the granting of a license to any applicant in Chester township for the period of two years.

The saloon men are already combating the opposing element, using their influence to keep the names of voters oil the blanket remonstrance, and with partial success thus far, although the temperance people say they will have many more than the. required number. Two applications are already iu and will come within the operation of the remonstrance. They are those of Frank Mil-tonberger and Clinton Flick. Leading attorneys have advised that the remonstrance is legal.

The denominations are quarters and dollars, but the dollars predominate. The counterfeit coins are pretty fair Imitations of the genuine and cannot readily be detected, except by experts.

Odell died in 17'. and, as ail his property, including this ten amounted to less than (X), his widow took possession of it under the Indiana statute which gives to the widow in such cases a claim prior both to chii-1 dren and creditors. The widow afterward remarried and then sold the land.

After her death, however, her children by the lirst marriage stt up a claim to the land under the statute which provides that when a wife remarries she may not convey the real estate inherited from her lirst husband without the consent of the children. The supreme court held that her claim to the first worth of property took entire precedence of the rights ot the children, and they therefore had no claim upon the land. is all right, if you are too fat; md all wrong, it too thin already.
