Polk's Brother Shot in Philippines- Sad News Read by Our Congressman Re turning From Kansas Gity. When the Pennsylvania delegation train reached Indianapolis Sunday afternoon Congressman Rufus K. Polk, in company with Ex Governor Pattison, was on his way to the lunch room for refreshments, when he was stopped by a newsboy.who asked him to buy a paper. The genial Con gressman from the Seventeenth dis trict looked at tne boy for a moment and laughed and said: "I guess we will have a paper, sonny," and taking the paper which the boy handed him, gave him a nickel and walked slowly to the restaurant carrying the paper in his hand. After the lunch order was given Congressman Polk glanced over the pages of the paper, and, seeing a heading "Casualties in the Philip pines," said: "Well, here's news trom our boys who are fighting across the sea." Suddenly his face grew white, and, turning to John G. McHenry, delegate from this district, and P. E. Radle, chairman of Northumberland county, both of which counties are in Polk's Congressional district, said with tears in his eyes: My God, boys, Lucius has been shot. I am sorry the papers don't say whether or not he has been badly hurt. I must go straight through to Washington and get whit information I can -from the War Department, as his mother will no doubt hear of this and worry her self to death unless she knows he is not badly hurt." The injure.', brother of Congress man Polk is named Lucius E. Polk, and is a resident of Columbia county, Tenn., from which State he was ap pointed as captain in the Forty-third Volunteer Regiment in 189S by President McKinley, and has ever since been performing active service. He was first assigned to duty in Cuba, but since last October has been in the Philippines. Is BabyThin this summer? Then add a little SCOTT'S EMULSION to his milk three times a day.
