Marvelous Production ot Iron
and Steel.
In spite of the fact that during the
paat twelve months the iron and steel
tadastry has been hampered by a long
strike, and by something of a dead
lock te transportation facilities, the
total production of iron and steel
tn the United States has grown to
tnly enormous proportions. Probably
io the whole history of the world there
has never been a period when a single
industry witnessed such a phenomenal
development as that of the American
iron and steel trade. We have been ac
customed to regard the great industrial
establishments of the country, and par
ticularly those identified with the steel
industry, as more than equal to any
imsslblo demands of tbe home market,
yet so great has been our prosperity
that our great blast furnaces and steel
mills have been unable to cope with the
demand, and it has been necessary to
import a certain amount of pig iron
from abroad.
Daring the last year the total produc
tion ofjpg toon was 17,821,307 tons, an
liii ntesri of over two million tons on the
preceding year and a gain of four mill
ion tons over the yesr 1000. Perhaps
these figures are best understood when
it is stated that last year's production
wss nearly double that of the year 18&7.

School Law.
The following is the sect ion of the
School Laws of tais state referring to
attendance in adjoining districts -
That if it shall be found, that on ac
count of great distance from or difficulty
of access to the proper school house in
any district, .some of the pupils could be
, more conveniently accommodated in
tbe schools of an adjoining district it
shall be the dnty of the directors or
controllers of such adjoining districts
to make an arrangement by which such
pupils may be instructed in the most
convenient school of tbe adjoining
district; and the expenses of such in
•traction shall be paid, as may be
V agrctd upon by the diroctors or con
trollers of such adjoining districts by
resolution or agreement entered upon
the minutes of the of the respective
boards.
98. Pupils cannot attend school in an
aijoining school district longer than the
tesm of their own district: otherwise
tnly would have an unfair advantage
over the other pupils of their own
district; bat they may attend at a dif
ferent season, if the two districts do
not open their schools at the same
time.
M. Pupils from an adjoining district
i|| are to be charged for by the month, at
f, the same rate as it costs tbe district
'receiving them per pupil, to keep its
own school in operation. They are not
merely to be pud for according to tbe
Bomber of days of actual attendance,
bat as long as their names remain on
tbe roll ana their seats are kept open
for them.
M. The board receiving pupils from
an adjoining district, under the terms
of this law, has no claim upon their
parents bat only on the board of the
: proper district, with whom there should
M a written agreement on the subject.

)»* j yards and cemeteries that bad
r a robbed by tbe ghouls in the end,
u was developed that nearly 1.000
graves in the immediate neighborhood
of Indianapolis had been devested by
the ghonls. These bodies had been sold
aflto Indianapolis medical colleges and.
likewise, to colleges in cities surround
i ing Indianapolis. There had been es
tablished a well-planned traffic in tbe
banian cadavers and Indianapolis bad
been the center of the trade.
Tbe expose of the operations of the
grave robbers had no sooner ceased to
claim public attention, the heart-breaks
« roagnt by the disclosures of Cantrell
and his associates hsd no sooner healed
than another terrible secret was disclos
ed by Cantrell. In a written and sworn
confession, with a braxenness that chal
lenged belief, he declared that his con
science was paining him and that he
.•old no longer withhold the facts that
were proving an awful burden to him,
in his cell at the Sonthern Indiana peni
tentiary.
He declared that he, together with
the members of his organization, had
Irften guilty of wholesale mard&rs He

ise, tbe convict ghoul began the narra
tion of s story that surpasses* anything
thit the reoordr of crime in the United
Si ties can produce.
Tbe mnraerers operated under the very
«i nof the police. They grew bolder as
f. ch successive crime went undiscover
ed. They even rented a house on W.
north Si, wherein they established a

th-y dubbed with the fantastic title of
th» "Sign of the Cross."

Here's one which a minister who
spent a week or ten days in town recent
ly t>ld on himself. He entered a barber
shop, and a young man.Jat once sizing
up the expansive face, broad lip and
hard beard of the preacher, began to
strop his razor with alacrity. "Next"
he sang out and the preacher sat down
in the chair of execution. After two or
three strokes at the point of assault, the
yonng barber said in German to his
companion "1 wish all the d— Catholic
priests were in h—." The response
came "you shouldn't sav that, maybe
be can understand.'' "No be can't, he s
Irish, look at the mnn of it." Tbe shave
wss completed; rising from the chair
the minister said in 'ierman "How
much now T" and one barber fled out tbe
front door and tbe other out the rear

A Reunion In Old Mid illescx.
The homo of Mr. and Mrs. David
Lie fever in Middlesex lowjiKtaip was the
scene of a merry time on Saturday,
August 15th, wheu the »aembers of the
Montgomery there to
TP * renn 'o*. 4 in honor of Dr. and Mrs.
Th oluer ? °' altsburg.
, nt ' years had «ince the last
reunK^ n been and in conse
jftce some of the gaestn were so eager
m get there that they jirrived an hour
or two ahead of Hme This was in
keeping however with the spirit of the
day, for a delightful sense of informali
twpervaded the wboU» affair.
The HinaH army of cousins who as
sisted in the preparation of dinner,
made the air vibrant with their laugh
ter; the younger fry forgot thoy had
fatherH and mothers and gave them
selves up wholly to the joy of "playing
horse," and tumbling over the grass;
while even the older folks laid aside,
for the day, the responsibilities of life
and enjoyed themselves as much, it not
as loudly, bs their nephewo and nieens,
whose din, the neighbors declared,
drowned the noise of a nearby thresher.
Mr. and Mrs. Lefever were the re
oipients of a large French mirror This
gift was a complete surprise t*. them,
planned by friends who could j,ay them
no higher tribute than that they should
"see themselves as othc rs see them."
After supper all left for their homes,
glowing with the connciousness of a
good time. Soon vacatiorm will be oyer
and back to the work-a day world we
go, but we shall always look back on
our reunion as an illustrated vagc in
the history of our lives AMICUS

i Three SUiges nn«l Three King's.
I One can Ret H good Idea of the magni-
J tilde of the Greatest Show on Earth by
! considering for n moment that three
stages, tliree circus rings, and a race
track are required to erhib't the 100
acta. Besides these, auain, there are
any quantity of aerial apparatus to en
able the i-killed artistes to uxocute the
1 thrilling acts in the air which are their
specalities. Then there are two mena
geries. an elephant pavilion with three
herds of big performing pachyderms, a
drove of camels, cages of wild boast*,
birds, monkeys, etc , liesides sll the
curious led animals llamas, alpacas,
guanacos. aud many other*. And again
there is a moat delightful exhibition,
which in performed in the menagerie—
;tu exhibition of a most clnruiin < char
acter executed by magicians, jugglers,
and queer musicians, and by the odd
' people in the collection otf freaks.
Aside from the people who are
great cariosities, trie entertainient
is moat praiseworthy. The exhibition
of living cariosities uiveu in the mena
gerie tent in an excellent one. and bris
tics with picturesque episodes and ljy
ng. acting tableaux. Nearv I<H) train
i(l horses perform at owe time in three
eings, also presenting a really tnajestlo
spectacle, while the performances of the
•three herds of elephants in three rings
are wonderful. The entire show is one
of exceptional merit and well worth a
visit—in fact, it is worth a doeen visits,
for no one can see it all in less. All will
lie here on Saturday Ang 22 nd. when
the splendid new street parade prove an
index to the delightful performances in
the water-proof tents, which are electri
cally lighted as well, and contain a foot
rest for every seat.
