Being Made to the Indiana Mineral Springs ( Indiana ) Hotel , AT AN OUTLAY OF $30,000 , , Growth of Kntorirlno ItrprcHcntltiR Kx- liemllturo of tt"8O,000 Succci * ' fill MiuuiKonicnt of II. IKrniuor. . Ten years ngo the ground where the rnagnllicait hotel property of the Indi ana Mineral Springs Company is locat- ted at Indiana Mineral Springs , In diana was wholly unimproved nnd al most a wilderness. Now , owing to the discovery or the valuable medicinal qualities of the springs nnd the heal ing virtue of the soil Itself , together with the enterprise of Major H. L . Kramer , there is located there ono of the 'finest sanitariums in the United States. The natural picturesque sur roundings have been rnado more at tractive nnd the hotel is a model of comfort nnd elegance. For the creator accommodation of guests who come In constantly Increas ing numbers from every section of the United States , arrangements have now been made for the enlargement of the hotel buildings. The contract was let yesterday by Major Kramer for addi tions that will cause an outlay of over ? 30,000. The improvements will consist of a new bath house and nn addition to the hotel. The addition will be two stories in height and will occupy a ground space 80x160 feet. It provides forty additional guest chambers. The entire addition will bo handsomely and elegantly furnished. The bath house , when completevl , will be the finest in the United States. Besides the hath house and the guest chambers there will bo on the first floor a dining hall , a music room , a billiard hall , physician's offices and a barber shop. In connection with the bath house there will be ladles and gentlemen's dressing rooms and cool ing rooms. The dressing and cooling rooms will be elaborately decorated and the floors will be laid in white tile. In both cooling rooms will be built largo ornamental lire places which will be used for heating pur poses In addition to the regular steam heating. The work will be entirely completed in 90 days. The Improvement and the entire ar rangements of the hotel and grounds are made , keeping In view the artistic effect of the whole , and when the Im provements arranged for are complet ed the hotel and surroundings will be much more attractive than before. Major Kramer states that a still fur ther addition to the hotel is contem plated , nnd that plans are now being prepared for an additional structure to contain 150 rooms for guests. Already a quarter of a million dollars lars has been expended on the In diana Mineral Springs enterprise and under the present management greater growth and development In the future Is assured.

Regan.who was killed in the wreck of the * fast bound mail train at the Lake Shore at Wcstfleld on Wednesday , 'May 23 , was ono of the best known locomotive engineers In this part of the country. Ho was In the employ of the Lake Shore for a generation , nnd always enjoyed the confidence of the officials of the line as man who could make the time and do careful , conscientious work. Regan began railroading as a fireman in 1803 on the State line work train of the old Buffalo & State Line road , af terward extended to Erie , and called the Buffalo & Erie , nnd finally merged Into the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern. In I860 ho got his stop nnd took the throttle of a switch engine nt Dunkirk. The next year ho ran the work train at Silver Creek , and on July 1 , 18G ) , he went * on the road as a freight engineer. In 1880 ho was promoted meted to a passenger run , nnd up to his untimely end piloted the passenger trains of the Lake Shore in winter nnd summer. Regan came from a family of engineers. His brother , Thomas Regan , has the opposite run on the companion train. His brother , James Regan , who died a short tlmo ago , was an engineer on the Like Shore , and another brother , Edward Regan , is an engineer o the Lehigh Valley. His son , Francis Regan , is an engineer on the Lake Shore , nnd his two broth also the road. ers-in-law run on same In Regan's career of thirty-four years as a locomotive engineer he had but three accidents , and none was the re- sujt of his fault or negligence. Ho had the reputation of making uniformly good runs , and the train he was taking out when killed is one of the fastest malls in the country. Buffalo Ex press. EalUIiury Drained Himself. Hero is an amusing and character istic story of Lord Salisbury. It 13 known that the premier is much too serious In his mind and occupations to have much regard for the merely ceremonial menial side of life. For some years this failing produced no evil results , for Lord Salisbury had a faithful valet , who looked after him ; but ono unhap py day the valet left , and Lord Salis bury was reduced to his own resources. It was levee day , and the minister was in the midst of serious business up to the last moment. Ho rushed home , turned out a largo bundle of uniforms , of which , of course , he has a quantity , nnd took the first that came to his hand , with the astonishing result that he wore a coat that belonged to the elder brethren of Trinity house , a dep uty lieutenant's pair of trousers , and a hat of the Royal archers. Even that was not the worst. He wore his gar ter on the wrong side , and things reached their climax in the waistcoat , which , dating from an earlier and less robust period in his life , left-between it and the trousers what was once called , In the case of another parlia mentarian , "a lucid interval. " Boston Journal. Origin of the Silver Wedding. The first silver wedding dates back to the time of Hugh Capet of France. Two servants had grown gray in his service , a man and a woman , and what could he give them as a reward ? Call ing the woman , he said : "Your service is great , greater than this man's , whose service Is great enough , for the woman always finds work harder than n man , and , therefore , I will give you a reward. At your age , I know of none better than a dowry and a husband. The dowry Is here this farm from this tlmo forth belongs to you. If this man , who has worked with you five and twenty years , Is willing to marry you , then the husband Is ready. " "Your majesty , " said the old servant , "how Is it possible that we should marry , having already silver hairs ? " "Then It shall be a silver wedding , " and the king gave the couple silver enough , to keep them in plenty. This soon became known nil over France , and it became a fashion after twenty- five years of married life to celebrate a silver wedding. Kidding Town of MosqultoeH. For several months past experiments have been conducted at Sassari , ; n Sardinia , by Dr. Fermi , Dr. CoEyul- Rocca and Dr. Lumbau for the purpose of ridding the town of the pests of mosquitoes with which It Is overrun. The doctors effectually destroyed the larvae by distributing vast quantities of petroleum in the swamps and other spots where the insects bred and the mosquitoes were exterminated by chlorine and other powerful destruc tive chemicals. The doctors in their report consider It possible to free any town infested with mosquitoes by this means , provided it is not too unfavor ably situated. It is an economical remedy , costing only about ? 250 a year for a town possessing a population of about 50,000 inhabitants. Caught with a Hoolc. Some tlmo ago wo told of a man who accidentally caught a tiger with a hook and line , nnd now wo have to tell of n man who purposely caught a grotibe In the same way. He had been hunting all the afternoon without suc cess , and , becoming disgusted at the poor luck , put away his gun nnd started out in the afternoon with fish ing tackle. While fishing he saw a grouse in the grass on the bank of the stream , and , baiting his hook with a grasshopper , made a cast to the bird. Like a fish , the grouse swallowed the bait , hook and all , and started to fly off. But ho was held fast and the fisher bagged his queer game.

If you go Into n store to buy an article that has achieved Universal popularity like Cascarets Candy Cathartic for ox * ample , you feel It has the endorsement of the world. The Judgment of the people Is infallible because it is im personal. The retailer who * wants to sell you "something else" In place of the article you ask for , has an ax to grind. Don't it stand to reason ? He's trying to sell something that is not what ho represents it to be. Why ? Because he expects to derive nn ex tra profit out of your credulity. Are you easy ? Don't you see through his little game ? The man who will try and sell you a substitute for CASCAR ETS is a fraud. Beware of him ! lie is trying to steal the honestly earned benefits of a reputation which another , business man has paid for , and if his conscience will allow him to go so far , he will go farther.
