The Indiana Academy of Science is a voluntary association founded in 1885, and maintained for scientltic study and re- search, and the diffusion of Icnowledge concerning the various departments of science. It is not controlled or supported by the State, but the Legislature provides an annual appropriation of $600 for publishing the proceedings and papers of the association. Fifteen hundred to three thousand copies of each of the reports are published, most of which are distributed under the direction of the State Librarian to the various libraries of the State, and to other institutions, societies or persons applying for them. Complete files are kept at the State Library, free of access to the public. Meetings of the society are held in May and December of each year, the December meeting occurring at the State House. Indianapolis, and the May meeting at some other town or city, subject to selection. Officers for 1904-5. President, John S. Wright, Indianapolis. Vice-Presfdent, Dr. Robert Hessler, Logansport.

Every person who has control of a child between the ages of seven and fourteen years is compelled by law to send such child to school. In the enforcement of this law 111 truant officers are em- ployed in the State, at an annual salary expense of $22,328. lu the school year 1903-4 they brought 22,597 children into school. During the same pei'iod the State incurred an expense of $17,837 for clothing and books for poor children. The New Harmony Movement. Two remarkable and widely differing experiments in social reconstruction constituted tli^; '"New Harmony Movement," and they took place at the little town of New Harmony, located in Posey County, Indiana, about rtfty miles north of the continence of the Wabash and Ohio rivers. The flrst of the experiments was by George Rapp. a native of Wurtemberg, Germany. He conceived the idea of founding a colony, or community, and governing it according to the New Testament as he understood and interpreted it. He thought the people could be led to live such righteous and holy lives that sin would eventually be banished from the world, and Christ would come again and dwell among his people. But on account of governmental opposition, Kapp left Germany and came to Amer- ica to carry out his ideas. He arrived in 1803, and at first es- tablished his colony in Pennsylvania, but being dissatisfied there came to Indiana, and in the year 1815 purchased 30,000 acres of land in Posey County. With his faithful band of followers he established New Harmony, and operating on the community plan, everything l)eing held in common, and all individuals work- ing for the comniou good, thousands of acres of forest lands were cleared, and farnung, fruit growing and stock raising were carried on on a gigantic scale, and for a time successfully and profitably. The fame of New Harmony spread everywhere, but so long as human nature remains as it is, such experiments will necessarily be short lived. The heyday of prosperity soon passed, the zeal of the IJappites for their cherished ideals cOoled; selfish- ness and individual ambitions got in their work, and contentions, discord and disintegration followed in their natural order and sequence. (90) Moore's Hoopier Cyclopedia. 91 Many of the queer old houses built by the Rappites still re- main. The "front doors" invariably open toward the back of the lots, and in the old cemetery, surrounded by a five-foot brick Avail, no gravestones or monuments appear. Such things, ac- cording to the Rappites. were mere frivolities and vanities, and therefore Avrong. They built a great church, in the shape of a Greek cross, of which a liondon traveler wrote eighty-six years ago: "I can scarcely imagine myself to be in the wilds of Indiana, on the borders of the Wabash, while passing through its long and resounding aisles, and surveying its stately colonnades." In 1824 the Rappites sold out to Robert Owen, another noted dreamer, avIjo came from Scotland, to carry out his idea of unifying capital and labor. He Avas also a communist, but not a religionist. He had established and successfully conducted a community — a model manufacturing tOAvn, at Lanark, Scotland. His idea Avas to substitute co-operation for competition, and to reconstruct society upon the communistic plan. To trj^ his theories on a larger scale he came to America, and, as stated, bought the Ncav Harmony settlement from the Rappites. Owen had with him William Maclure, the father of American geology, and his experiment attracted a number of other men of such eminent talent and learning that, to quote Col. LockAVOod, "New Harmony became the greatest scientific center in America, and the first impoi'tant scientific outpost in the West. It became the headquarters of the United States Geological Survey, with one of its students, David Dale OAA^en, in charge; it was the site of a museum unexcelled on the continent." For jnauy years New Harmony was the Mecca for men of science and learning, as well as for the curious and adventurous. Its fame Avas world-wide. Robert OAA^en soon retii'ed to Scot- land, but left his four sons, Robert Dale OAven, William Owen, DaA'id Dale Owen and Richard Oavcu, in charge. All became eminent in the affairs of State and Nation. Robert Dale Owen served as a member of the Indiana Legislature, and represented the State in Congress. He Avas the legislative father of the 92 SrOOKE'S IIOOSIER CYCLOPEDIA. Smithsonian Institution, and a letter he wrote at the critical moment is said to have borne great influence in deciding Presi- dent Lincoln to issue the Emancipation Proclamation. He was also a writer and lectiu-er of much note. It is unnecessary to state that the second New Harmony experiment, like the first, also failed, at least so far as the direct purposes of its author were concerned. But the influences which grew out of it were momentous, and are still alive. We quote a few paragraphs from a magazine article contributed by Col. George B. Lockwood, who is also author of the best book on the New Harmony movement yet published: "No undertaking is a failure which leaves mankind better and wiser because of it, and judged by this standard the New Har- mony venture was a wonderful success. There has not been another trial of communistic association so auspiciously under- taken, or so tlioroughly carried to a conclusion, as that of Itobert Owen at New Harmony. Brook Farm has occupied a larger place in literature, but as a serious effort at solving the social problems of its time it did not approach New Harmony in im- portance. "But of more immediate importance to us, e^^pecially as In- dianans, is the fact that the deathbed of Robert Owen's 'social system' became the birtliplace of several distinct movements which have assumed great proportions since the story of the New Harmony communisms became a half forgotten chapter in the liistory of social experiments. "There the doctrine of universal elementary education at public expense, without regard to sex or sect, Avas first proclaimed in the West, and through the labor of Robert Dale Owen, more than any other one man, tliis conception of the State's duty has found expression in a common school system that is the glory of the republic. "Through William Mjiclure, Rol)ert Owen and Joseph Neef, Pestalozzi's pupil and autlior of the first American work on the science of education, the Pestalozzian system of education, now everywliere predominant, was first successfully transplanted to the Western world. Moore's Hoosiek Cvcloitpia. 93 "WiHiain Mac-lure's 'manual training sclioor at New Harmony was tlie first distinctive trade school and the second industrial school in point of time in the United States; it was the first in- dustrial school of any type to be made a part of a free public school system. "The infant school established by Robert Owen at New Har- mony, and conducted throughout the lifetime of the experiment, was the first kindergarten of any type in the United States, and marked the first use of the kindergarten as a part of the public school system. "It was in the schools at New Harmony that the theory of equal educational privileges for the sexes was first put into prac- tice. And at New Harmony was the first free public school sys- tem in a land in which today the blessings of an education 'free as the living waters' (as Robert Dale Owen so earnestly hoped it might become), forces itself upon the American child, if need be, by due process of law; there was the first real public school system west of the Appalachians, the most humane and enlight- ened system of school government to be found anywhere, for it was not equaled even in the schools of the tender-hearted Pesta- lozzi himself; the most enthusiastic and determined advocacy and support of 'free, equal and universal schools' that history records; the most ambitious and pretentious educational experi- ment the world has yet witnessed, and with the exception of Pestalozzi's earlier effort, the most courageous and unselfish educational experinient which the world has yet witnessed. "Through Robert Dale Owen New Harmony impressed upon American law the modern conception of tne legal rights of wo- men, and in New Harmony was founded by Frances Wright, nearly eighty years ago, the first woman's literary club in the United States. Through William Maclure New Harmony gave to the West a system of mechanics' libraries from which dates the beginning of general culture in nearly a hundred and fifty Indi- ana communities. "Through Josiah Warren New Harmony originated the philos- ophy of anarchy, a rebound from communism, and gave to the Avorld the perfecting printing press. And it is claimed that in the 94 Moore's Hoosier Cyceopedia. system of 'labor notes' inveuted by Josiab Warren at New Har- mon j', Avas the germ of the great co-operative societies of Great Britain, wliicli constitute tlie most successful labor movement of the nineteenth century, lilven the religious latitudinarianism of the New Harmony communists, so l)itterly denounced in its own day, has served as a leaven of liberality in religious thouglit it- self, until the narrow type of religion which the Owenites so steadfastly opposed has in large measure disappeared. "The lasi of those who lived and labored in New Harmony's golden age have long since ceased to dream of an earthly New Jerusalem, but the great movements to Avhicli they gave origin and direction Avill sweep onward iii an ever widening current" Indiana Charitable, Benevolent and Correctional Institutions.

The State appropriates for the current expenses a sum equal .to $15 per month for each officer, employe and pupil. THE NATIONAL SOLDIERS' HOME AT MARION, IND. While the National Soldiers' Home at Marion is not a State institution, it is, nevertheless, an object of pride and interest to the people of Indiana. The Home was erected, and is main- tained by the united States Government for the benefit of ex- Union soldiers and sailors who claim its care. Its present popu- lation is a little in excess of twenty-three hundred. Similar homes are maintained in other states, so that no old soldier who finds it necessary to seek the bounty of the Government is ever turned away. The principal officers in charge of the Home at Marion, with their annual salaries, are as follows: George W. Steele, Governor; salary, $3,0€0. .John Q. Adams, Treasurer; salary, $2,000. Harry Miller, Chief Surgeon; salary, $2,400. James "NY. Sanderson, Quartermaster; salary, $1,800. In addition to the salaries named, all the officers get fur- nished homes, or "quarters," free, and their provisions for just 10 per cent, more than the Government pays. The Governor also re- ceives $G00 per year additional for entertaining the National Board of Managers, who visit the institution at least once each year, and sometimes oftener. The National Board of Managers, as its name indicates, is a national body, having control over all the national soldiers homes in the country. The officers of the homes are appointed by this Board, and hold their places during; iiood behavior, or at the pleasure of the Board.

Liberal reductions are made on sentences for good behavior, and when a prisoner is discharged after serving his time, he is given a new suit of clothes and $10 in money, and a railroad ticket to any point in the State to which he desires to go, provided it is no farther from the prison than the point from which he was sentenced. If aischarged between the first of November and the first of April he is given an overcoat also. The Indiana State Prison is for the incarceration of male persons convicted by any of the courts of the State of treason, or murder in the first or second degree, and of all persons con- victed of any felony who at the time of conviction are thirty years of age and over. Persons over sixteen and under thirty years of age who may be convicted of any felony or crime less than ti'eason or murder, are sent to the Reformatory at Jefferson- ville to serve whatever sentence may be imposed.

Tlie General Superintendent receives $2,500 per year. The General Superintendent selects all other employes. The Assistant Supei'- intendent receives $2,000: the Clerk, ,*i;i,800, and the State Agent, $1,500. The Superintendent and Assistant Superintendent are furnished house and subsistence in addition to their salaries. The Indiana Reformatory is used for the incarceration of male persons between the ages of sixteen and thirty years, who may be convicted of any felony below the grade or treason, or murder in the first or second degree. Theoretically the purpose of their imprisonment is reform rather than punishment. Under the present "indeterminate sentence" law, the court orders that the pei'son found guilty of a felony under conditions as ex- plained, be confined in the Reformatoiy for a term not less than the minimum time prescribed by the statutes as a punishment for such offense, and not more than the maximum 'time pre- scribed by such statutes therefor. Under the prescribed rules of the Reformatory, the prisoner may be discharged after the minimum time has been served, or he may be kept for the maxi- mum time, or he may oe released on parole. Under parole his liberty is forfeited by any acts of misconduct, and he is re- turned to the Reformatory to serve his full term. The Legislature of 1905 passed a law providing for the es- tablishment of a school of industrial training for inmates of the Reformatory. INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL FOR GIRLS AND WOMAN'S PRISON. (Located at Indianapolis.) Board of Managers. Term Expires. Emma Lee Elam, Indianapolis March 1, lO'OT Sarah A. Lancaster, Lafayette March 1, 1907 Ella B. McCoy, Indianapolis March 1, 1909 Emily E.

Members of the Board of Managers are appointed by the Governor, and serve four years, their compensation being $1G0 Mooee's HoosiER Cyclopedia. 103 per year each, and no allowance for expenses. The Board selects the Superintendent and other officers and employes, and fixes their salaries. The Superintendent's salaiy is $1,200. The law stipulates that the Board of Managers, the Superin- tendent and all other officers and employes shall be women. The Industrial School for Girls is a reformatory institution to which girls under fifteen years of age may be committed for vagrancy, or incorrigible or vicious conduct. The Woman's Prison is for the imprisonment, safe custody and reformation of women and girls convicted of criminal offenses. The two institutions ai'e at present maintained in the same buildings and under one management. The Legislature of 1903 passed a law requiring that the Industrial School for Girls should be separated from the Woman's Prison, and that build- ings separate and widely apart from those now used by the Industrial School and Pi'ison be constructed for the use of tne former. An appropriation of $150,000' was made, and a com- mission appointed to carry out the provisions of the act, but the amount appropriated was found inadequate for the purchase of land and construction of buildings, and no steps were taken toward complying with the provisions of the act. But at the session of the Legislature of 1005 the appropriation was in- creased to $235,000, and the commission continued, so the work of separation will finally be accomplished. The Girls' Indus- trial School will then be established on the cottage plan, and will have separate control and management from the Womans Prison. 104 Moore's Hooster Cyclopedia.

The Indiana Reform School for Boys is maintained to receive into its care and guardianship boys between the ages of seven and eighteen years, committed to its custody by the courts for any of the following reasons: (1) For incorrigible or vicious con- duct, rendering control beyond the power of parent or guardian; (2) vagrancy, vicious conduct or moral depravity, where the parent or guardian is unable or unwilling to exercise control; (3) on complaint of township trustee where such child resides, or by the mother when the father is dead, or has abandoned his fam- ily, or is an habitual drunkard or does not provide sustenance and clothing, that such child is destitute of a suitable home and of adequate means of obtaining an honest living, or is in danger of being brought up to lead an idle or immoral life. No commitment is for a shorter period than imtil the boy shall attain the age of 21 years. NEW BENEVOLENT INSTITUTIONS. In addition to the foregoing charitable, benevolent and cor- rectional institutions supported by the State, the Legislature of 1905 passed laws providing for the establishment of an institu- tion for the treatment and care of epileptics, and for an addi- tional hospital for the insane.

The expenses for new buildings and extraordinary repairs are not included in amounts and averages in the foregoing table. Such expenses for 1904 amounted to $223,940; adding this to the cost of maintenance makes a grand total of expense for the State's institutions of $1,749,681. But there were $135,658 of re- ceipts and earnings, which, being deducted, leaves a net cost to the State of $1,614,023. In addition to the foregoing, there are 1,591 children in Or- phans' Homes who are wards of the State, being under the direct charge of the Board of State Charities; 2.832 other children have been placed in private families by the Board and are sub.1ect to oversight and visitation by the agents of the Board. lOG Alooi5i:"s HoosiER Cyclopedia. TOWNSHIP POOR. Ill 1904 the Township Trustees, as overseers of the poor, aided 40.009 persons to the amount of .$281,899.87. This seems like a large number of persons to be helped, and an enormous amount of money expended, but it is a great improvement over the first few years following the enactment of the poor relief law in 1895. In that year the township poor relief and medical aid amounted to $630,109, or $348,209 more than in 1904. The number of persons aided In 1897 was 82,2.35, as against 4(i,0(i9 m 1904. The improvement is due to better administration of the law and the growth of the State charitable institutions, which now care for a large percentage of the State's defectives and helpless wards. And still there Is room for improvement. However, 5,997 more persons wei-e aided in 1904 than in 1903, and the ex- penditure for such aid was $34,154 greater in 1904 than in 1903. COUNTY POOR ASYLUMS. Each county in the State maintains a poor asylum, and in addition Marion County has an insane asylum. According to the last official report, it costs the ninety-two counties of the State $379,609 annually to maintain these insti- tutions. There were in addition $00,016 for extraordinary re- pairs and new buildings, making a total cost of $439,095. How- ever, there were receipts and earnings of $74,833, leaving a net cost of $304,802. The total number of inmates in the 93 county asylums of the State, according to the last report, was 3,144. Of these, 2,071 were males and 1,073 females. COUNTY JAILS AND CRIMINALITY. There were admitted to the county jails of the State in 1004 a total of 33,810 persons, an increase of 3,550 over the year be- fore. Of the total jail admissions in 1904, as shown, 31,552 were men and 2,258 were women. Mooke's Hoosieb Cyclopedia. 107 There were 4,115 tramps, for whose incarceration fees and board amounting to $7,039.71 were charged, which charges were probably illegal, as the right of county sheriffs to house and feed tramps, when no charges are placed against them warrant- ing arrest, is seriously questioned. There were admitted for intoxication 12,267 men and 507 women, a total of 12,774, at a cost to the counties for fees and b'oard of $37,720. Over 50 per cent, of the whole number of persons admitted to the jails was for vagrancy and intoxication — being 16,889 out of 33,810. The expense to the counties in fees and board for these 16,889 vagrants and drunkards was $44,789.93. A total of 949 persons were found to be in the jails of the State at the time of the jail census on October 31, 190->. Of these 870 were men and 79 women; 269 were there awaiting trial, 605. were serving sentences, 49 were there for miscellaneous causes, 20 were insane persons and 6 were tramps.

Frank Hanly, Governor of Indiana, was born April 4tli, 1863, in a log cabin, iu Champaign County, Illinois. His father, Elijah Hanly, a cooper by trade, was of Scotch-Irish extraction, a native of Hamilton County, Ohio, whose ancestors had como at an early date from Ireland. His mother was Ann fcliza Calton, a native of North Carolina. Their son, destined to become Governor of Indiana, was ambitious to secure an education, liv.t was able to attend school for a few weeks at a time (9) 1129) 130 Moore's Hoosier CYcr.opEDr.s. only, being engaged in the work of a common laborer on various farms In order thai he might assist in the support of his parents. In 1879 he started out alone to Warren County, Indiana, walking most of the distance, as he had no money to pay his way. On arriving at Williams- port he secured employment sawing wood, and when the spring season opened he found employment on the farm. In the winter which fol- lowed he taught a six months' term of common school, and saved up money enough to take a six weeks' course at the Eastern Illinois Nor- mal School, at Danville. He contiiiued to teach school in winter and do any nonorable work his hands found to do in the summer. In 1889 he was admitted to the Warren County bar, and began the practice of law at Williamsport. A year later he was nominated and elected to the State Senate, where he at once took front rank as a debator and force- ful legislator. In 1894 he was nominated by the Republicans of the Ninth District for Congress, and was elected by a majority of more than 5,000. But the Legislature of 1S95 gerrymandered him into a new congressional district, and he failed of renomination by a half vote. In the fall of 1896 he moved from Williamsport to Lafayette, Indiana, where he formed a partnership in the practice of law with Senator Will R. Wood. In the campaign of 1898 Mr. Hanly's services as a public speaker were in great demand and he made a thorough canvass of the State. La'^er when the General Assembly met he was a formidable can- didate for United States Senator, and came within a few votes of win- ning the uomination over Senator Beveridge in the Republican caucus. In August, 1903, Mr. Hanly decided to become a candidate for the Re- publican nomination for Governor, and entered upon the campaign with his usual vigor and earnestness. So great was his popularity that when the convencion met on the 29th of April, 19M, it was only a question of what ballot would nominate him. The convention stampeded to his standard before the close of the first ballot, and his nomination was made unanimous. He was elected in November, 1904, by almost 85,000 majority, the largest ever given a gubernatorial candidate of either party in Indiana. He was inaugurated as Governor January 9th, 1905, and in his inaugural address he took strong grounds on matters of rail- way legislation and public morals. He has shown a determination to signalize his administration as one of law enforcement, and his efforts are meeting with the hearty approbation of all well-disposeu and law- abiding citizens of the State. Moore's Hoosier Cycloi'ebia. 131 HUGH TH. MILLER, Lieutenant-Governor. (Sketch prepared by Marshall E. Newhouse.) Hugh Th. Miller, sou of Johu G. Miller, Christian minister, and some time member of the facultj' of Butler College, Indianapolis, was born on the farm of his father and grandfather, near Nineveh, Johnhson County, Indiana, March 21, 1867. His mother was Elizabeth Ann Carr, of Louisville, Kentucky. Having received his elementry and interme- diate education at home, he was graduated (A. B.) at Butler College in 1888 (A. M., 1895). Studying later in Paris and Berlin, he became Professor of Romance Languages at Butler, resigning in 1899 to become assistant cashier of Irwin's Bank, Columbus, Indiana. He is also Sec- retary and Tresurer of the Indianapolis, Columbus and Southern Traction Company. He was married December 26, 1900, to Nettie Ii-win Sweeney, daughter of Z. T. Sweeney, Commissioner of Fisheries and Game, and granddaughter of Joseph I. Irwin, of Columbus. He was elected as a Republican to represent Bartholomew County in the State Legislature in 1902, never having held public office before. After a lively contest before the Republican State Convention of 1904, in which he had some very able and highly popular gentlemen for com- petitors, he won the nomination for Lieutenant Governor, and in the fall of the same year, he, along with the rest of the ticket, was elected by an overwhelming majority. As Lieutenant Governor Mr. Miller became presiding officer of the State Senate, and in this position during the session of 1905 he made a record of which any man might indulge a .lust pride. In addition to a formal resolution passed by unanimous vote of the Senate at the time of adjournment, expressing the high regards and thanks of the body, individual Senators, in public addresses, pronounced many flattering en- comiums upon him, declaring thai he had proven himself as able and fair a presiding officer as ever wielded the gavel in the Senate of In- diana. These compliments and expressions of appreciation came from Republican and Democratic members alike. 132 Moore's Hoosieh CYci.orEnr \. DANIEL E. STORMS, SecTL'tary of State. Daniel E. Storms. Secretary of State of Indiana, was born on a farm near Sto(,'kwell, in Tippecanoe County, Indiana, January 30, 1SG6, being ttie son of Abner and Pliiletta Storms. He received bis education in the common schools, Purdue University, United States Military Academy, West Point, and the University of iNIichigan, graduating from the Law Department of the latter institution in 1S92 with the degree of LL. K. He at once began the practice of law at Lafayette, and soon afterward formed a partnership with Judge Robert P. Davidson, one of the ablest lawyers in the State. This partnership, which was an extremely pleas- ant one, continued three years, at the end of which time Mr. Storms formed a partnership, which is still in force with Charles E. Thompson. In 1896 he was elected County Attorney of Tippecanoe County, and re- tained the position until the first Monday in December, 1902. His" splen- did success up to this time, and his elt'ective work locally and through- out the State for the party of his choice won for him such wide popu- larity that in the Republican convention of 1902 he was nominated unanimously for the office of Secretary of State. He was elected by a splendid ma.iority and in 1904 was re-elected to serve a second term. He has popularized his administration by the painstaking and expedi- tious manner in which he has conducted the business of the ofiice. He is a hard worker, sticking close to his duties, but always finds time to greet friends and patrons of the office cordially. He has also made his- mark as a public speaker, and his services are constantly in demand in all parts of the State. His family consists of his wife and one son, Donald Campbrll, and one daughter, LUlian Gladys. AIoohe's Hoosiek Cyclopedia. ] 133 WARREN BIGLER, Auditor of State. Warren Bigler, Auditor of State of Indiana, was born in Shelby County, Indiana, in 1S51, being the sou of Lewis and Melissa Branden- burg Bigler. Mr. Bigler's educational opportunities were limited mainly to the common schools of Shelby County. He attended the National Normal University at Lebanon, Ohio, a few months. But such oppor- tunities as he did enjoy he improved to the utmost. Working by himself at home without any assistance whatever, he mastered much of the sub- ject of higher mathematics. He owes the liberal success he has won in life to close application to the duties in hand, whether study over books in his school days, or attending to the details of business after reach- ing manhood. He early earned the reputation for thorough honesty and fairness in all things that has been his chief help in the battle for suc- cess that he has had to wage alone from boyhood. He is now known as one of Indiana's most solid and reliable citizens. For more than a fourth of a century Wabash, Indiana, has been his home. Mr. Bigler is a stanch Republican, and for many years has been identified with the local and State organizations of his party. He has served as secretary and chairman at different times of the county committee, and was dis- trict chairman from 1898 to 1902. lie also served terms as secretary and vice chairman of the State committee and was a member of the exec- utive and finance committees. Notwithstanding his long and valual)le 134 Moore's Hoosier Cyclopedia. party sei'vice, he was never a candidate for office. Until he was ap- pointed State Auditor on September 15, 1905, by Governor Hanly, to fill out the unexpired term of David E. Sherrick, resigned, he had never occupied public positions other than school trustee and trustee of the Eastern Indiana Hospital for the Insane. The former position he held eighteen years continuously, and the latter from 1902 to 1905. Mr. Bigler is an attorney by profession, but is also interested in the mortgage loan and real estate business— i. e., the buying and selling of real estate. lie compiled a complete set of abstracts for his county, that has long been a standard local work. That the affairs of the Auditor's office will be well administered while in Mr. Bigler's charge goes without saying. Moore's Hoosiek Cyclopedia. 135 NATHANIEL U. HILL, Treasurer of State. Nathaniel U. Hill, Treasurer of State, a successful citizen of Bloom- ingion, was born in Clay County, Indiana, June 21, 1852. Was fourth son in a family of six children born to Abel S. and Almira Usher Hill, and was reared in Brazil, Indiana, where he received a liberal educa- tion in the public schools. At sixteen he attended the academy at La- doga for two years under the management of Rev. Milton B. Hopkins. In 1870 he entered and finished his Ireshman year at State University, after wliich he attended Howard College, Kokomo, conducted by Rev. Hopkins. In 1872 he re-entered State University and graduated in 1875 in literary; in same year finished .iunior law, graduating in law in that institution in June, 1876. Practiced law for two years in Brazil, a part- ner of Judge Jas. A McNutt. In jJecemoer, 1878, was married to Miss Anna M. Buskirk, daughter of Judge Geo. A. Buskirk, of Bloomington. Two sons' bless this union, Nathaniel U. and Philip B., both living. Lo- cated in Bloomington he was three years director of the First National Bank. In 1881 he was elected Vice-President, eight years after was elected President, which jjosition he held for thirteen years and until he resigned to assume the otHce of State Treasurer. He was elected for a second term as Treasurer in 1904, and the State's fiscal affairs have never been more ably conducted than under his administration. For thirty years has taken an active part in politics, always believing that any opposition could be overcome by intelligent and perfect organiza- tion. He was county chairman, district chairman, delegate to the Na- tional Convention at Minneapolis that nominated General Harrison and 13G MOORK'S HoOSIER CvCLOrKDIA. at St. Louis that nominated William McKinley. Was defeated in 1896 I)}' a few votes for Representative in Licgislature, in the overwhelmingly Democratic district of Brown and Monroe counties. Has always been, since a student, a staunch friend to Indiana University. Contributed largely to the passage of the tirst legislative endowment bill for the University. In 1898 was appointed trustee of Indiana University, reap- pointed in ISCl, being a resident coworlier and ardent friend of President Swain, now ft Swarthmore, who contributed so much to the success of the institution. A!oorany schools, resigning that to accept the oflice of Deputy State Superintendent of Public Instruction, March 15, 1887. He served as such olHcer for four years. He was then chosen Superintendent of Schools at Madison, which position he held till elected State Superin- tendent in November, 1894. In this office he made a notable record. His tirst work was the preparation of a State Course of Study, covering the first eight years of school work. At the completion of this course pupils were graduated into the high schools. These township commencements gave r.n impetus to education never before experienced in Indiana, and that influence still remains. During his term of four years in this office he attended more than four hundred of these commencements and urged the establishment of township high schools. He stands distinctly as the originator of the toAvnship high school idea in Indiana. No other State Superintendent can l.iy claim to more beneficial legislation than that se- cured by hiui during the Legislatures of 1897 and 1899.

He is giving his efficient services in the office he now holds and will do all in his power to make the work valuable. The position came to him through a long personal friendship with the Chief of the Bureau and his well- known qualifications to perform such work. 172 Moork's Hoosier CvCLOrEDlA. LYCURGUS P. MCCORMACK, Member Indiana Labor Commission. As a nn mber of tlie Indiana Labor Commission, Lycurgus P. Me- Cormack is one of tlie State's official peacemaliers. There is no doubt but that the work of the Commission has been very fruitful in encour- aging and promoting cordial relations between labor and capital. When the Commission first came into existence, its time was occupied almost wholly in efforts to settle strikes; now its time is devoted to preventing strikes— a very healthful change. Mr. McCormack takes a keen interest in the work, and both sides to any pending controversy are always sure of a fair and sympathetic hearing at his hands. The Commission consists of two members, the law requiring that one be an employer of labor, and the other an employe for wages, Mr. McCormack was given his place on tlie Board as an employe, having been appointed by Gov- ernor Mount in 1897, and reappointed regularly since. Mr. McCormack was born at Danville, in Hendricics County, Indiana, January 17, 1846, being the son of Hezekiah L. and Lucinda Beaty Mc- Cormack. He was educated in the Danville Academy, and at Asbury (now Do Pauw) University, graduating in the latter institution in 1S73. But before this be had learned the printing business, having finished an apprenticeship at the old Cincinnati Gazette office. Yielding readily to the fascination of the art, he followed the life of a printer and proofreader continuously until the time of his appointment on the Labor Commission, excepting a short while he was employed as a railroad solicitor in the South. He worked in various cities in this and other States. He studied law while at Asbury University, and was admitted to the bar at Greencastle and at Indianapolis, but never practiced the profession. He has lived in Indianapolis for the last thirty years, and is rhe owner of valuable city property, and of a flue stock farm in Hamilton County, in which he takes great priae. Mr. McCormack is unmarried. Mooke's Hoosiek Cyclopedia. 173 Z. T. SWEENEY, Commissionei' of Fisheries and Gaine. Z. T. Sweeney, Commissioner of Fislieries and Game, was liorn in Liberty, Kentucky, February 10, 1849, being tlie youngest of tlie four sons of Rev. G. E. Sweeney, a minister noted for liis great eloquence and zeal in tlie cause of the Christian religion. All four of his sons, upon reaching manhood, also entered the ministry, winning honorable distinction therein. Z. T. Sweeney, the subject of this slcetch, held his first charge at Paris, Illinois. He removed later to Columbus, Indiana, where he still resides. He was pastor of the Christian Church at Co- lumbus for twenty-seven years, during which time the congregation grew from a membership of about two hundred to over twelve hundred. Mr. Sweeney is an evangelist of great power, and his services in this capacity have long been in great demand. He has also won wide renown as a lec- turer, and has appeared on the public platform in almost every portion of our country. He is a man of splendid educational attainments, and possesses literary talents of a high order. He is a member of the Vic- toria Institute, London; Institute of Christian Philosophy, New York, and the National Geographical Society, Washington, D. C. He has been president of the Indiana Christian Sunday School Association, was chan- cellor of Butler University, and servea as consul-general to Turkey. He 174 Moore's Hoostek Cyclopedia. is author of a book entitled "Under Ten Flags," whicli lias had a very large sale. Mr. Sweeney is noted for his earnestness of purpose and his decisiveness in carrying out his plans. He believes the world will get out of the pathway of the man who knows where he is going. He was appointed Commissioner of Fisheries and Game by Governor Mount in 1897, reappointed by Governor Mount in 1899, and appointed for a third term by Governor Uurbin in 1903. His services have given the highest possible satisfaction, and the tish and game laws fif the State were never more thoroughly and intelligentl.v enforced than under his administra- tion. Mr. Sweeney was married in 1875 to Miss Linnie Irwin, and his family now consists of his wife and two clilldren, the oldest, Jeannette, being the wife of Lieutenant-Governor Hugh Th. Miller. The youngest, Elsie, is attending school in Indianapolis. His only son, .Joseph I., died in August, 1900. Moore's Hoosiek Cyclopedia. 175 WILLIAM H. FREEMAN, State Forester. William H. Freeman, Secretarj- of the State Board of Forestry, and ex officio State Forester, was born ou a farm in Wabash County, Indi- ana, September 11, 1863. His childliood, youth and young manhood, until he was twenty-three years of age, were spent upon the farm. He expe- rienced all the toil and hardships of the profession to which he was born, but diank in the delights or the free and open-air life of the rural dweller. His love and admiration for the fields and the forests, the streams and landscapes, furnished an inspiration, all unconsciously at that time, however, for what seems to be his appointed work. Noth- ing could have led more naturally to the study and practice of the science of forestry, and the State is now reaping the benefits of his knowledge of, and devotion to, the subject. Mr. Freeman's opportunities' for an education were at first very meager, but at the age of twenty-three he left the farm and devoted himself to diligent study. Completing the common school course, he entered the Northern Indiana Normal School and Business Institute, at Valparaiso, where he graduated in both the scientific and business departments. Later he graduated from the Indiana State Normal School, at Terre Haute, after a four years' course. Following this he taught two years in the district schools, and then served four years as principal of the high school at Urbana, Indiana, and three years as principal of the Columbia School at Anderson. On May 18, 1901, he was appointed Secretary of the State Board of Forestry, by Governor Winfield T. Durbin, a position which he still holds, and for which he has demonstrated his splendid fitness by intelli- gent direction, and incessant labor, study, and reseyirch. He has infused new life into the long neglected subject of forestry in Indiana, and his work is certain to bear stiil more valuable fruits in the future. 17G Moore's Hoosiek er 9. 1869, being the son of George and Louisa Carroll. He was educated at the Repert private school at Somerset, Ky., and in the public schools at Indianapolis, Indiana. His characteristics of thorougluiess. progressiveness and unflagging energy, coupled with frankness of disposition and sturdy honesty, have won Mr. Carroll his success. As superintendent of the School for Feeble- Minded Youth he has proven his splendid abilities and entire fitness for the position; the affairs of the institution were never better iidniinistered than while under his charge. He was appointed acting superintendent August 31, 1903, to succeed Alexander Johnson, resigned, and on May 5, 1904, was regularly appointed Superintendent for a period of three years. The institution over which Mr. Carroll presides is one of the most praiseworthy the State has established. Its mission is to care for that type of defectives known as the feeble-minded and idiotic who, when left to themselves, become a menace to society and ;i burden upon their families or to the pulilic. Here they are given the rudiments of an edu- cation and taught, if possible, some useful trade, to tit them for helpful lives and self-support. There are now over four hundred children at- tending the school, and about the same numlter who perform duties of various kinds about the buildings and grounds. Two miles north of the main institution is a farm colony, where 185 boys are housed. In politics Mr. Carroll is a stanch Democrat. He is a member of the Baptist church, is a Uoyal Arch and Scottish Rite Mason and an Odd Fellow. Mooke's HoosiER Cyclopedia. 183 CLARENCE W. OSBORIME, Ph. D. Clarence W. Osborne, of Union County, holds the reeord of having enjoyed a longer continnoiis service as connt.y Superintendent of schools, than any man wlio ever held that othco in any county of the State. He was tirst elected in ISSI. and has beeu re-elected regularly since, thus having served uninterruptedly for a little over twenty-four years. Dur- ing this time he has attended as a member 47 conveutious of the County Superintendents' State Association, and 24 meetings of the State Teach- ers' Association. He has conducted 24 County Institutes, and 270 teach- ers' examinations, and has attended 160 township and corporation com- mencements. His work is conceded by all to have been of the highest cliaracter aud efficieucy, and his reputation as an educator is not con- fined to his own count.v, where he has done so much to advance the cause of i)ublic education and raise the standard of efflciency in the teaching profession. He possesses a frank and genial disposition. I'rof. Osborne was born in Union County. June 5, 1S53, being the son of William W. and Hnldah (Tucker) Osborne. At the age of eighteen he entered Miami University at Oxford, Ohio, whei-e he spent two years. He afterwards attended the National Normal University at Lebanon, Ohio, two years, where he graduated In the Commercial course and almost completed the work in the classical course. He taught four years in the district schools, and served one year as principal of the "West College Corner school, at the end of which time he was elected County Superintendent as before stated. After coming into this office he ma- triculated in the National University of Chicago, fulfilling its conditions by correspondence, and receiving iu due succession the degrees of A. B., A. M., and Ph. D. He has been honored by election, at different times, as secretary and president of the County Superintendents' State Asso- ciation. He is a staunch Republican. 184 Moork's Hoosier CvcLorEDiA. CHARLES DOWNING, Secretary State Board of Agriculture. Few men are better knowu throughout the State than Charles Down- fug, Secretary of the Stale Board of Agriculture. He has his office on the first floor of the State House, where he is always on duty, and where friends of the groat industrial cause he represents are always welcome. The great personal popularity he enjoys has been earned by his kindliness of disposition, and atteutiveuess to the wants of those who have business with the office of the Board. His position is an im- portant one, and no man could perform its duties more satisfactorily than Mr. Downing has done. Mr. Downing was born in New York City, N. \., August 7, 1857, and came to Greenfield, Indiana, when but eleven j'ears of age. He was educated in the schools of New York and Greenfield, completing his school days in the latter city in 1873. Soon after this he was appointed deputj^ clerk of the Hancock Circuit Court, and served nine years. In 1882 he was elected clerk, and served four years. In 1880 he was again elected clerk and served another term of four years, at the end of wliich time he entered the practice of law in Greenfield. He served two years as Prosecuting Attorney, having been appointed by Governor Matthews to fill out an unexpired term. He was elected a member of the State Board of Agriculture in 1893, and re-elected from time to time until 1900, when he was elected Secretary of the Board, and this position he has held continuously since. Mr. Downing is also a member of the Board of Trustees of Purdue University, having been appointed in 1899. He still maintains his residence at Greenfield. iM ogee's Hoosiek Cyclopedia. 185 WILLIAM H. O'BRIEIM. Chairman Democratic State Central Committee. William H. O'Brien, chairman of the Democratic State Central Com- mittee, is a banker by profession, and resides at Lawrenceburg. He was born in that thriving city August 22, 1S55, the son of Cornelius O'Brien, a lawj^er, and native of Killienny County, Ireland, and Harriett Jane Hunter, born in Lawrenceburg. He was educated in the schools of his native town, and went through the sophomore year at DePauw University. Quiet of disposition, but thoughtful, conscientious and ever considerate of the rights of others, Mr. O'Brien represents the very best type of citizenship of the State. The confidence and esteem in which he is held by his close neiglibors and fellow-citizens is attested by the fact that he has been elected Mayor of Lawrenceburg no fewer than five times, serving in all thirteen years. In the fall of 1902 Mr. O'Brien was elected State Senator to repre- sent the joint district composed of Dearborn, FraukTiu and Ohio counties. He served with great credit to himself, and with entire satisfaction to his constituency in the General Assemblies of 1903 and 1905. Mr. O'Brien has been a lifelong Democrat, and a faithful worker for the success of his party. He was elected chairman of the State Central Committee Januarj' 8, 1904, and served through the disastrous campaign which resulted in his party's defeat in the fall. But this was a calamity — from the Democratic standpoint— that no man could avert. His work met with the entire approval of his party associates, even if a different outcome would have suited them better. Mr. O'Brien was married to Miss Harriet Hunter, a native of Mexico. Missouri, on May 9, 1882. 186 Mooke's HoosiEii Cyclopedia. EDWARD EVERETT NEAL. Edward Evorott Noal, of Nolilcsvillc, Indiana, is known and esteemed for his sterling qualities by citizens in every portion of the Hoosier com- monwealth. He was born in Hamilton County, Indiana, and has main- tained his residence there ever since. He worked hard to secure an edu- cation, and has risen steadily by his own efforts. The confidence and esteem in which he is held have been earned by the fairness, frankness and openness of his disposition, and his promptness in living up to every duty and oldigation, whether of business, friendship or politics. He is a member of the Hamilton County bar, having received a legal education in the National Lniversity Law School of Washington, D. C. He is a Republican of the most ardent type, has helped fight the battles of his party in every campaign since he reached his majority, and is known as an eloquent and logical campaign orator. He has sei-ved as district and State secretary of the Lincoln League. Mr. Neal M^as elected to the State Legislature in 189S and again in 1900, and served with distinction in the sessions of 1S99 and 1901. Mr. Neal has served as oflScial stenographer of the Twenty-fourth Judicial Circuit for some years and his experience in the courts render him peculiarly well adapted to perform the duties of the office to whicli he aspires, viz.. Clerk of the Supreme Court. He sought the nomination for this office in 1902, but stepped aside on account of the candidacy for State Auditor of another citizen of liis county. Mr. Neal will again present his claims for the nomination for Clerk of the Supreme Court before the Republican convention of 1906. and his numerous friends all over the State are sanguine of his success. Mr. Neal is also a successful newspaper man, being editor ot the Hamilton County News, a stanch and influential Republican journal. Mooee's Hoosier Cyclopedia. 187 FRANCIS T. ROOTS. Both ill the matter of material prosperity, and for her fair renown among the cities of the State, Connersville, Indiana, owes much to the higli abilities, sterling character, loyalty and success, of a single family. In the early days of Connersville"s history, it became the residence of Alanson Roots, a man of character, purpose and industry, who set about the task of making a s'uccess of life without blusier or ostenta- tion. He was succeeded by Philander H. Roots, his son, who w-as a scholarly and accomplished gentleman, a public-spirited citizen, and a business man of very superior talents. He was a manufacturer of woolen goods', an inventor and a banker. He was a charter member of the First National Bank at Conuersville, and was its President from 1872 to 1879. He was also one of the charter members of the Counersville Hydraulic Company, serving as its President from 1865 to 1870. He was one of the founders of the Second Presbyterian Church, serving the organization as trustee and elder till his death, which occurred in 1879. He left a very liberal fortune as an evidence of his success in business. Francis T., the son of Philander H. Roots, was' born in Conuersville, Indiana, July 17, 1857, and represents the third generation of the family in Conuersville. His portrait accompanies this sketch. He inherited both wealth and an honored family name, and to his great credit it can be said hs has safeguarded and added additional accumulations to the one, and preserved inviolate the other. He has proven himself a man of breadth and talent, and his influence has not only impressed itself upon city and county, but has been felt in the affairs of the State. His education began in the city schools of Conuersville, and was com- pleted in the Chickei-ing Institute at Cincinnati, Ohio, where he won 188 Mooke's Hoosier Cyclopedia. numerous honors, and was also the valedictorian of his j-ear. He at first prepared himself for practice of the law, but owing to the death of his father found it necessary to embark in active business life. Herein he has won a splendid success, and has proven his' breadth and versatility by achievements along other lines, notably politics, at the same time. At the age of twenty-one he was elected to the highly responsibile position of President of the First National Bank, a position which he filled with complete success. About the same time he was elected Secretary and Treasurer of the P. H. & F. M. Roots Co., and a little later became President of the Connersville Hydraulic Co. In addi- tion to these enterprises, in which lie has large holdings, he also holds important interests in the Connersville Bnggj' Co., the Connersville Fur- niture Co., the Natural Gas Co., the A. E. Barrows Insurance Co., the Triple Sign Co. and the Farmers and Merchants Trust Co., he being President and one of the principal founders of this latter institution, which, though but four years old, is one of the leading financial con- cerns of the city. Mr. Roots has served twice as Vice-President of tne Indiana State Board of Commerce, and was chairman of the committee that framed the call for the first monetary convention in Indianapolis. He was an alternate delegate to the convention at Minneapolis in 1902, when Gen. Harri.son was nominated for president, and a delegate to the Chicago convention in 1!)04 when Roosevelt and Fairbanks were nominated. He was elected a Kepresentative to the State Legislature in 1896 from the counties of Fayette and Henry, and re-elected in 1S9S from Fayette and Wayne. He served in the Assemblies of 1897 and 1899, and during that time had the unprecedented honor of nominating two United States Senators, viz., Fairbanks and Beveridge. While in the Legislature he originated and secured the passage of many valuable measures, among them being the famous anti-junketing law which has saved the State many thousands of dollars, and has been copied by other States. He served as a member of Governor Durbin's military staff. Mr. Roots' fame as an orator has long since o'erspread the bounds of his own State, and he has frequently been urged by his friends to try. for high political honors. From a standpoint of unselfish devotion to the principles of the Republican party, and long and valuable service, both in party counsel and on the stump, he deserves highly, but his large and varied business interests have stood in the way of his entering into active competition for such honors. He has been urged in turn to make the race for Lieutenant-Governor, for Go\ernor, and for Congress. Mr. Roots is justly regarded as being one of the ablest financiers in the State, and he represents the best type of solid and safe business man. He is broad and liberal in his views, and has aided with his time and liis money every public enterprise and worthy object in his city and community. He was one of the leading spirits in the establishment of the Fayette County Free Fair Association, and has served as its Pres- ident from the first. He is likewise President of the Connersville Man- ufacturers' Club. Mr. Roots was married in 1880 to Miss Sallie Heilman, daughter of Congressman Wm. Heilman, of the Evansville district. They have one son, Clarence S., now a rising young attorney, also located at Conners- ville. Moore's Hoosier Cyclopedia. 189 JONCE MONYHAN. Jonce Monylian was boru in Saltillo, in Wasbington County, Indiana, August 1, 1856. When four years of age his father moved to Leipsic, in Orange County, Indiana, and engaged in general merchandising. Jonce attended the public schools of his township until he became far enough advanced to enter Blue River Academy, which became hfs alma mater, as he attended that academy two years. lie then engaged in business with his father, until the latter, wishing to retire from the active labors of a merchaut, sold his interest in the store to Jonce, who conducted a profitable business until the year 1895. Mr. Monyhan was married to Miss Belle Miller of Indianapolis, .Tune 28, 1882, and they lived a happy life together until August 10, 1904, when death claimed Mrs. Monyhan. Two sons, Blish and Henry, survive the mother. The sudden death of his father in 1895 caused the shadows to fall dark and gloomy over Mr. Monyhan's life, and the old home and successful business lost their attractions, and the opportunity presenting itself, he disposed of all his interests at Leipsic and moved to Orleans. In 1896 Mr. Monyhan was honored with the Republican nomination for the State Legislature from the districts composed of Orange and Craw- ford counties, and was elected by a splendid majority. He served with great credit to himself during the session of 1897. Upon his return home and to the duties of a priavte citizen, Mr. Monyhan and his associates founded the Citizens' Banli of Orleans, which splendid institution speaks for itself.

Brown, residing at Connersville, Indiana, enjoys a national, in fact, an international reputation as an authority on arboriculture. For forty years lie has devoted his time to a study of the forestry question in all its phases, including- effects upon climate, rainfall and soil of mod- ern methods of commercial deforestation, and the ultimate effects upon the people, and upon states and nations of the same destructive process. He is among those who early foresaw the effects upon manufacturing and other industries of the wanton waste of our natural forests, which a thousand years of human effort could not replace. But th'ese lessons were easily learned. The question of reafforestation, and within a period to benefit during their lifetime those who promote it, furnished the great problem, for human selfishness tends to disregard the interests or even rights of posterity. It takes a philanthropist to plant a forest that can benefit only the second or third generation after his death. Hence the special effort made by Mr. Brown to find a species of forest tree that would be commercially valuable, and of sufficiently rapid growth to mature and yield a profit within the lifetime of the planter. This he found in the Catalpa speciosa, a native Indiana tree. Through lectures, magazine articles and personal correspondence he has induced individuals, corporations, railroad companies and states to plant millions of these trees, devoting hundreds of thousands of acres of land to their cultiva- tion. This, of course, is but a brancli of his forestry worlv, which has made his name familiar in almost every laud. On every phase of the 192 Moore's Hoosiek CYCLorEDiA. work lie Is acknowledged as au authority, and snch are the demands npon his time that for several years he has traveled on an average of a thou- sand miles weekly, or fifty thousand miles per year, in the interests of the business. He organized the International Society of Arboriculture in 1896, the membership at the first lieiug twenty. It has since increased to 3,500, every State of the Union, Mexico, Canada, all European countries, Japan, Korea, South Africa and the South American States being repre- sented. Mr. Brown is Secretary and Treasurer of the Society. He is also editor of Arboriculture, the official organ of the society, which he established in 1902. It is a highly influeutial magazine, now in its fourth volume. He is also a life member of the Forestry Society of Prance, and corresponds for several foreign journals. Mr. Brown was born .January 19, 1842, at liising Sun, Indiana. His father, Elbridge Gerry F>rown, was a pioneer steamboat captain on west- ern rivers. Our subject attended common schools, and afterward spent a year in Hanover College. He became a civil engineer, and continued his studies in the field, gradually developing his qualifications as a for- estry engineer. He saw service in the Civil War, being a member of the Sixteenth Regiment, Indiana Volunteer Infantry. He is a Kepub- licau in politics. Prior to the organization of the present Forestry Bu- reau, he was employed for a time in the Washington Department of Agiiculture, in forestry work. He afterward spent some time in the Interior Department, inspecting surveys in the land office. Mr. Brown drafted and secured the passage in the Indiana Legisla- ti're of the Forestry Law of 1899. in the face of great opposition. The nieat.sure proved a most valuable one. Much of his time is now employed as a contracting forestry engineer. Mr. Brown was married March 11, 1868, to Mary E. Stephens of Bald- win, Kansas. His family consists of his wife and ten children.

At the age of eight years his parents removed to Miami County, Indiana. In 1868 he was placed in a Presbyterian boarding school at Wabash, where he remained for two years. In 1870 he removed with his parents to Cambridge City, Indiana. He attended college at Hanover, finishing his junior year in 1S74, and left that institution with high honors. From Hanover College he began his law course at Cambridge City, and in 1875 was admitted to the Wayne County bar. He was ap- pointed Deputy Prosecuting Attorney by Hon. D. W. Comstock, now a member of the Appellate Court of Indiana. In ISSO Mr. Shiveley was elected Prosecuting Attorney and took up his residence in the city of Kichmond, where he has since resided. In 1882 he was re-elected Prose- cutor for the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit. In 1884 he retired from that office with honor to himself and his constituents. He then devoted him- self earnestly to the practice of his profession and with such a measure of success that he soon became known as one of the foremost lawyers of Eastern Indiana. In 1894 he was elected Senator from Wayne County and held that office one term. As a member of the Indiana State Senate he was rec- ognized as one of the leaders. During his first session he was chairman of the "steering committee," and at his second session in 1897 was elected president pro tempore of the Senate. Mr. Shiveley showed much skill (13) 194 Mooee's Hoosier Cyclopedia. as a parliamentarian and a ready and forceful debater. After retiring from the Senate, Governor Mount appointed liim a member of the Board of Managers of the Indiana Reformatory, which position he held for five years, a part of which time he was president of the board. In 1900 Mr. Shiveley was prominently mentioned by the press of the State as a prob- able candidate for Governor, out on account of business reasons he de- clined to make the race. In 1902, at San Francisco, he was elected supreme vice-chancellor of the order of Knights of Pythias, and in August, 1904, at Louisville, Kentucky, he was elected supreme chancellor, which position he now occupies. Both of these elections came to Mr. Shiveley without oppo- sition. The Knights of Pythias now number about 650,000 men. As chief executive of this great organization Mr. Shiveley has shown much exec- utive ability, and the order under his administration has attained the greatest growth and development in its history.

Goodrich, whose name has become familiar throughout the State on account of his leadership of one of the great political parties during two hard-fought campaigns, was born at Winchester, Randolph County, February 18, 1864, and being convinced that fate had made a good choice of residence for him, has maintained his home there ever since. He began his education in the high school at Winchester and after completing the work there entered DePauw University in 1883 and remained there two years. After reading law in the office of Hon. Enos L. Watson, of Winchester, for two years, he entered the active prac- tice of his profession, which he has followed with marked success for seventeen years. He has also enjoyed and fetill enjoys, extensive and important business connections, being President of the People's Loan and Trust Co. of Winchester; holding interests in the Randolph County Bank and other banking institutions of the county, and is one of the trustees of Wabash College. Mr. Goodrich has never held or sought public office. The highest distinction in this line, of which he is able to boast, is a membership on the School Board of Winchester for the past fourteen years. How- ever his splendid abilities have not lacked recognition at the hands of the political party of his choice. He was elected Republican State committeeman from his district in 1898 and 1900, and in the fall of 1901 he was elected chairman of the State committee to fill out the un 19G Moore's Hoosier Cyclopedia. expired term of Charles S. Henley, resigned. In January, 1902, he was elected for a full term, and in 1904 was re-elected. Under his leadership his party was victorious in the State campaign of 1902, and at the State and National election of 1904 all records were broken, the Repub- lican plurality climbing within a few notches of the hundred thousand mark. While the sovereign people decide elections in this country, a great deal depends, nevertheless, upon the intelligent and fair presenta- tion of issues, and tactful management and direction of the campaign. In his qualities as a leader Mr. Goodrich has set the mark high. He is modest and unassuming in manner, but his frankness and evident honesty of purpose impress themselves at once upon all with whom he comes in contact. But his political achievements are only a continua- tion of the story of his success in business* and professional life. Moore's Hoosier Cyclopedia. 197 JOHN W. KERN. John W. Kprii deserves to be classed among Indiana's most distin- guished sons. While membership in the minority party has made it im- possible for him to attain the hign political honors for which his ad- miring and ever enthusiastic friends have pushed him forvs'ard during recent years, he has nevertheless made his impress upon the affairs of the State. An orator of marked ability, a deep thinker and logical rea- soner, he finds it no difficulty to sway the public thought on questions of political or governmental interest or debate. No partisan adherent of either political organization in the State enjoys a greater personal pop- ularity among his following. John Worth Kern was born at the little village of Alto, in Howard County, Indiana, December 20, 1S49, a son of Dr. .Jacob H. and Nancy Liggett Kern. The father was a pioneer emigrant from Virginia, while the mother was a native of Ohio. In 1854, while John W. was but five years of age, his parents removed with him to Warren County, Iowa. Father and son returned in 1864, the faithful wife and mother having died in their far western home. After the return to Indiana, in order to attend the Indiana Normal School at Kokomo, he rode back and forth from his home each day on horseback, the distance being about five miles. lie earlj^ cherished the ambition to become a public speaker, and it is told of him that upon his long and lonely rides he often rehearsed speeches to his faithful horse, making the woods ring with his oratory. Beginning at sixteen years of age he taught two terms of school, then entered the university at Ann Arbor, Michigan, graduating in the law in 1869. Returning to Kokomo, he immediately began the practice of his profession. When barely twentj^-one years of age he was nominated by the Democrats of Howard county for the State Legislature. The county l'J8 Mooke's Hoosier Cyclopedia. was normally Republican by over a thousand, and Kokomo city was also heavily Republican, but so effective was young Kern's canvass, and so popular did he prove himself to be, that he carried the city and made such inroads upon the majority of the dominant party in the county as to give his adversaries a thorough scare. He held the office of City Attorney twelve .years under Republican administrations. In 1S84 he was elected on the Democratic ticket to the office of reporter of the Supreme Court, and served his term of four years with the highest possible effi- ciency. Removing to Indianapolis at the beginning of his term, he has since made that city his home. In 1S92 Mr. Kern was elected to the State Senate to represent Marion County, and served in that hign position with distinction. He was City Attorney of Indianapolis under Mayor Taggart from October, 1897, to October, 1901. In 1900 Mr. Ki'rn \\as made the Democratic nominee for Governor of Indiana, and he made a brilliant campaign, but the tide of battle was against Democracy, and ho lost to his Republican opponent. Col. W. T. Durl)in. Again in 1904 Mr. Kern found himself the choice of his party for the high office of Governor, and although he had not sought the nomination, he took the field with all the splendid ardor of his nature. A more remarkable campaign was never waged in the State, but in spite of all efforts the result was the most disastrous that ever overtook the Democratic part.v, and Mr. Kern went down in defeat with the rest of the ticket. But the battle was lost on national issues, as is proven by the fa(;t that Mr. Kern ran far ahead of the vote on the national ticket. The majority against Parker for President was almost ten thousand greater tliaii that against Kern for Governor. There is practically no doubt but thai Mr. Kern could have had the Democratic nomination for Vice-Presi- dent in 1904 had he not restrained his friends from presenting his candi- dac5' before the St. Louis convention because he did not want to stand in the way of Thomas Taggart, who sought and finally won the chairman- ship of the national conimitlee. Mr. Kern meets defeats and disappointments with cheerfulness and good humor, and counts it no sacrifice to stand aside to help a friend. Mr. Kern has been twice married, his first wife dying in October, 1884. His second marriage was to Miss Araminta Cooper, daughter of Dr. Wil- liam Cooper, of Kokomo, in December, 1885. He takes great pride in his three children. The eldest. Miss .Julia, is a daughter of his first marriage. The other two are boys, John W., .Jr.. born in 1900, and William Cooper Kern, born in 1903.

A practical and accomplished lawyer, an unerring judge of human nature, a close student of current events and social and governmental tenden- cies, a speaker and debater of superior talent and readiness, he never fails to make his impress in forum or committee, in open campaign, or in personal encounter. No man in Indiana possesses a broader or more comprehensive knowledge of the men and affairs of the State, and the correctness of his views upon questions which from time to time form issues to divide the people, and his boldness and fearlessness in expressing them, have made him a recognized leader of thought in the State. In short he has been a most useful citizen and servant of the commonwealth, and he is still only in his prime. Mr. Sayre was born iu Wal)ash County, Indiana, July 29, 1844, and he has made that county his home ever since. He is the son of Daniel and Mary Newhall Grover Sayre, his father having represented Wabash County in the General Assembly of 1S71. He attended tlie schools of Wabash and was graduated from Union College, Schenectady, New York. He was married in 1865 to Martha J. Bronk, of Albany, New York, and has one son, Daniel Bronk Sayre, born February 4, 1868. Mr. Sayre was elected to the State Senate in 1880, and at the close of his term was elected a member of the House of Representatives where he has served five sessions since. In 1S8G lie was elected Speaker, and performed the duties of the office ably and acceptably. In 1SS9 President Harrison appointed him a member of the Cheroljee Commis- sion, to buy Oklahoma Territory from the Indians, the task requiring four years. Mr. Sayre is a Republican in politics, and has aided the party in the State through many a hard-fought battle. 2(10 MoOKE'S HOOSIEU CvCEOrEDIA. JOSEPH E. BELL. Joseph E. Bell was born November 28, 1865, in Union County, Indiana. His early life was spent working upon the farm. He attended the high school at Liberty, Indiana, and afterwards the Hollirook Normal School at Lebanon, Ohio. At nineteen years of age he began teaching in the common schools of Union County, which he fol- lowed for two years, working upon the farm during vacation. In 1SS6 he entered the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, taking a course In the law department, from which he graduated in June, 1888. In August of that year he located in the city of Indianapolis to begin the practice of law. General Harrison was then a candidate for Tresi- dent and the campaign was at its height. Being a stanch Democrat, Mr. Bell at once became active in local politics, associating himself with the Hon. Thomas Taggart, who was then chairman of the Democratic county committee of Marion County. The Indiana Legislature elected that year was Democratic l)y a small majority, and when the General Assembly of 1889 met Mr. Bell was appointed reading clerk of the House of Rep- resentatives. After the adjournment Mr. Bell began the practice of law and was successful from the beginning. In 1893 he was appointed to the posi- tion of assistant city attorney of the city of Indianapolis under the ad- ministration of the Hon. Thomas L. Sullivan as Mayor. When the Hon. Thomas Taggart was elected Mayor in 1895 Mr. Bell was appointed to the position of first assistant city attorney and continued In that office Mooke's Hoosieb Cyclopedia. 201 througli Mayor Tagg.irt's three administratious. During this time Mr. Bell had charge of the city's litigation, having conducted practically all of the trials in which the city wjis engaged during those six years. Dur- ing this time he gained the reputation of being an excellent trial lawyer. Mr. Bell has always been active in the politics of the city, county and State, being one of the close advisers of the Hon. Thomas Taggart, chairman of the national Democratic committee, and was a delegate to the national Democratic convention at St. Louis in 1904. He is now as- sociated in the practice of law with the Hon. John W. Kern, their offices being in the State Life Building. Mr. Bell is a man of splendid ability, of tireless energy, and is held in hiph esteem by all who know him. He was married in 1888 to Miss Anna L. Miller of Preble County, Ohio. 202 Moore's Hoosier Cyclopedia. JAMES E. WATSON, Member of Congress from Sixth lodiaua District. James E. Watson, one of tlie most widely Ivuown of the thirteen members of Congress from Indiana, was born in Winchester, Randolph County, November 2, 1864. He began his education in the Winchester High School, from which he graduated at the age of 17. He imuu'di- ately entered DePauw University, devoting himself to diligent study for four j^ears, at the end of which time he returned to Winchester and began reading law in the office of Watson »& Engle. He was admitted to the bar in 1888, and his success in the law since then has been very pronounced. Possessing superior natural abilities as a thinker and rea- soner, he is also an orator of a high grade of talent; and being ready in repartee and wit, his adaptability to the exigencies of debate is com- plete. These talents have stood him equally will in hand in the realm of politics and statesmanship, wherein even greater achievements have been scored. Mr. Watson is a member of several of the leading fraternal orders, in some of which high honors have been conferred upon him. Of the Knights of Pythias he served one term as Grand Chancellor, and he also served as a representative to the Supreme Lodge of the order. In 1893 Mr. Watson removed to Rushville, Indiana, and his political career may be said to have begun soon afterward. In 1894 he contested for the Republican nomination for Secretary of State, and was second in a list of strong candidates before the convention. In the fall of the Moore's Hoosier Cyclopedia. 203 same year he was elected a member of Congress, defeating the veteran Democrat, Hon. Wm. S. Ilolman, in a niemoral)le contest. In 1896 he lost the nomination for re-election to Hon. Henrj^ U. Johnson, a change in their districts having macie the two men rivals. Johnson's victory was by a scratch, however, .md when the time for another nomination came around in 1898, he was not a candidate. Mr. Watson was nomi- nated without opposition, and enjoyed similar experiences in 1900, 1902 and 1904, being successful in the election which followed in each in- stance. Meanwhile he has made a record in Congress which has fully jusiifled the high estimation in which his friends have always held him. He is rated as the most eloquent and forceful speaker in the House of Kepresentatives, and wields an influence in National legislation scarcely second to any. He is a member of the important Ways and Means Com- mittee, and is in line for further promotion. 204 Moore's Hoosier Cyclopedia. THOMAS B. MILLIKAN. Tlionia.s B. Alillikau was burn iu Ileiiiy County, Indiana, March 28, 1854, being tlie son of John R. and Martha Koons Millilian. The father was a farmer and banker, having served as President of the Citizens' State Bank of New Castle from 1873 till the date of his death in 1896. During this time he served two terms as Representative from Henry County in the State Legislature. The natural bent and aptitude of his son, Thomas B., for the banking business are easily accounted for. Thomas B. Millikan received his education in the common schools of Henry County, the New Castle High School and the Holbrook Nor- mal, at Lebanon, Ohio. His boyhood days were spent upon the farm. At the age of nineteen Mr. Millikan accepted a place in the Citizens' State Bank at New Castle as assistant cashier, and he has held this position continuously since, a period of thirty-two years. His careful study of all financial problems and his tact and caution in the per- formance of his responsible duties not only made him one of the most trusted advisers to the higher officers of the institution, but contributed largely to the notable prosperity of the bank. His work as a successful though safe and conservative financier has made his name familiar throughout the State. Mr. Millikan was State Bank Examiner eight years, serving from 1892 to 1900, under State Auditors A. C. Daily and W. H. Hart, succes- sively. He was chosen to represent Hon. Yates Nebeker, who was Moore's Hoosier Cyclopedia. 205 appointed Treasurer of the United States by President Harrison to suc- ceed Hou. J. N. Huston, resigned. Tlie duties of tlie position occupied about three months of Mr. JNIillikau's time, tlie most of which was devoted to counting mouey at the National Treasury at Washington. His experience and training have been such as to qualify him v/ell for the office of State Treasurer, to which Mr. Millikan is known to aspire and for which his friends have pressed his claims enthusiastic- ally. He was in the race for the Republican nomination in 1902, and was second on the list when the successful candidate reached the home- plate with only three and one-half votes to spare. His name is very prominent among the assured contestants for the honor in 1906. Mr. Millikan is an ardent Republican and always a worker for his party's interests. He has been a member of the Henry County Com- mittee continuously for the last twenty-six years. He was married in 1877 to Miss Alice Peed, and this happy com- panionship lasted until July 28, 1902, when death claimed the faithful wife. Three children were born to bless the union, and all survive. County Officers of Indiana, and Dates When Their Terms Expire. lOxplanatious — "C.

Under tlie new marriage law passed by the Indiana Legisla- ture of 1905, a marriage license will not be issued to any person, male or female, who is an imbecile, of unsound mind, or epileptic, or to any person who is afflicted with a transmissible disease, or who is under the influence of an intoxicating liquor or nar- cotic drug at the time of making application. And license will not be issued to any male who is or has been within five years an inmate of any poorhouse or home for indigent persons, unless he can show that the cause of such condition has been removed, and that he is able to support a family. The application for a marriage license must contain a state- ment of the full Christian and surname, color, occupation, birth- place, residence and age of each of the parties, and fxiU Christian and surnames, residence, color, occupation and birthplace of their parents, including the maiden name of the mother, and a state- ment showing whether the marriage contemplated is the first. Mooke's Hoosier Cyclopedia. 275 second or other marriage, and such other facts as may be neces- sary to determine whether any legal impediments to tlie proposed marriage exist. For seciiring a marriage license by any false statement, pre- tense or misrepresentation, a penalty not exceeding .$500 may be imposed. A minister or other person who solemnizes an illegal marriage lays himself liable to the same penalty. A clerk who issues a license contrary to the provisions of the law may be fined $25 to $100. If persons resident of this State, in order to evade the provi- sions of the law, go into another State and get married, Avitli the intention of returning to live in this State, and do so return, tliey lay themselves liable to a penalty not exceeding .$.500, and their marriage is void — providing this particular provision of the law is constitutional, which is doubtful.

The origin of the nickname ' 'Hoosier, ' ' as applied to Indiana, and to citizens of the state, is not known. The derivation most commonly accepted is from "Who's yer?" the crude salutation of the early settlers to unknown travelers coming to their cabins at night. Other theories are advanced. One is that the name originated in New Orleans in the early days when the surplus produce of Indiana farms was carried down the Mississippi in flat boats. The men in charge of these boats congregated in large numbers on the levee at New Orleans, and fights between themselves and other flat boat m.en were frequent. The Indiana men had a habit of ordering others to "hush up" when their talk became objectionable or too loud, and if the offender didn't hush up when bidden, he was sometimes silenced by Indiana knuckles and bravvm. Hence Indi- anians were called "hushers", a word that found an easy transition to Hoosiers, Another story is that the name originated in Kentucky at the close of a lecture in which a heroic regiment of French Huzzars was highly praised. A let of Indiana men v.-crc there, and v/crc participants in a free fight v/hich followed the lecture program. One of them, still enthuced over the narrative of the brave deeds of the French soldiers, shouted out that he and his friends were regular Huzzars. The name stuck to the Indiana men, and was soon converted into Hoosiers. (276) Tippecanoe Battle Ground. The Buttle oJ" Tippecanoe, fought near the confluence of the Wabash and Tippecanoe rivers, a few miles north of the present city of Lafayette, was tlie largest and most celebrated armed conflict ever waged on the soil of the State of Indiana. It took place in the early morning of November 7, ISll, and was really the first shot fired in the War of 1S12. General William Henry Harrison commanded the little army of Americans, while 'the Indians were led by the doughty chieftain, Tecumseh. On the American side the battle was fought largely by Indiana men. In General Harrison's armj'' were two hundred and fifty regulars, sixty Kentuckians, and six hundred Indianans. The loss con- sisted of thirty-seven killed, and one hundred and fifty-one wounded, of whom fifteen aftei'ward died from the effects of their injuries. The Indians were thoroughly routed, and the designs of Tecumseh completely foiled. The result was very im- portant. If the battle had not been fought, or if the Indians had won it, enabling Tecumseh to accomplisn his designs, the suc- cess of the Americans in the War of 1812 might have been jeopardized. General Tipton bought the land on which the battle Avas fought, and on November 7, 1836, deeded it to the State of Indi- ana, to be preserved as a public park for all time to come. An effort is being made to have a monument erected on this historic spot. Of such significance was the Battle of Tippecanoe, that it became the unwritten law of the State in its early history, that when new counties were formed, they should be named after men who fought in the battle. Among the counties so named are White, Wells, Tipton, Parke, Bartholomew, Spencer, Owen, Daviess, Dubois, Floyd, Warrick and Harrison. The greatest political meeting ever held in the State took place at the Tippecanoe Battleground in 1840, when General (277) (278) Moore's Hoosier Cyclopedia. 279 William Henry Harrison, the "Hero of Tippecanoe," was a can- didate for President. Opposed to General Harrison was Martin Van Buren. This was known as a singing, as well as a "hard cider"' campaign. Below we reproduce a stanza from each of the two most popular songs of the Harrison adherents: OLD TIPPECANOE. (Air: Old Rosin De Bow.) "Hurrah for the log cabin, chief of our .'oys; For the old Indian figlater, hurrah! Hurrah! And from mountain to valley the voice Of the peopio re-echo hurrah! Then come to the ballot-box. boys, come along, He who never lost battle for you. Let us down with o])pression and tyranny's throng. And up with Old Tippecanoe." TIPPECANOE AND TYLER, TOO. (Air: Little Pig's Tail.) "Let them talk about hard cider, cider, cider. And log cabins too. 'Twill only help to speed the ball. For Tippecanoe and Tyler, too. For Tippecanoe and Tyier, too, Tippecanoe and Tyler, too. And with -them we'll beat Little Van, Van, Van, he's a used-up-mau And with them we'll beat Little Van." (The author is indebted to Hon. Alva O. Reser of Lafayette, for most of the data for this sketch.) THE GRAVE OF NANCY HANKS LINCOLN. At Lincoln City, Indiana, (280) The Grave of Nancy Hanks Lincoln. A sacred spot on Indiana soil is the grave of Nancy Hanks, tlie motlier of Abraham Lincohi. It is located, near the little town of Lincoln City, in Spencer County, and a beautiful but unostentatious monument marks the site. The grave, and twenty-one acres of land surrounding it, are a public reservation, owned by the State, to he held in perpetuity for the beneflt of patriotic citizens who revere the name of our first martyred President, and honor the memory of his sainted mother. The ground Avas donateit to the State by Spencer County, and the monument was erected with funds raised by popular subscrip- tion. The care of the grave, and beautiflcation of the grounds, are entrusted to the Nancy Hanks Lincoln Memorial Association, a self-periietuating body composed of one representative each from the Grand Army of the Republic, The Women's Relief Corps, The Loyal Legion and The Sons of Veterans, and the Governor of the State, who is chairman. About one-half mile from the little cemetery in which Nancy Hanks Lincoln founil a last resting place, stands the "Lincoln Tree," which marks the spot Avliere stood the humble cabin home of the Lineolns during their residence in Indiana. They had moved there from Kentucky to escape an epidemic of "milk sickness," which had attained almost to the proportions of a scourge in their native State. Here young Abraham spent a part of his boyhood days, and suffered his tirst great g-rief, caused by the death of liis mother.

The law oftVrs no protection to the foHowing birds: English or European house sparrows, crows, hawks, or other birds of prey; the anatidtc, commonly called swans, geese, brant, river and sea duck; the raillidse, commonly known as rails, coots, mud- hens and gallilunes; the linicohe, commonly known as shore birds, plovers, surf birds, snipe, sandpipers, tattlers, and curlews. Whoever bunts or shoots wild birds, rabbits, or any kind of game with firearms on Sunday may, on conviction, be fined in any sum from $1.00 to -$60.00. Whoever hunts with dog or ferrets, or shoots with any kind of firearms upon any land without first securing consent of the owner or tenant thereof, may be fined not less than $10 nor more than $25. Whoever, while hunting on lands of another, carelessly or wantonly injures any live stock or property, real or personal, of any person, may be fined an amount not less than equal to the value of the property destroyed, and not more than double the value of property so destroyed or amount of injury done. It is unlawful for any person to hunt anywhere within the State, except in the township wherein he resides, without first procuring a license so to do. This license must be procured from the Commissioner of Fisheries and Game, and costs a fee of $1.00 per year. Such license when issued must have attached to it a photograph of the holder, and contain a description of iiis age, height, weight, color of hair and of eyes, etc. The holder of such license must carry it with him for purpose of exhibiting it on demand while hunting. Any person not a resident of the State desiring to hunt any- where m the State, is required to secure a license of the Clerk of the Circuit Court of any county. He must accompany his application with a statement under oath of his name, age, occu- 28G Moore's Hoosier Cyclopedia. patioi), and place of residence, and pay a fee of $15.50. The license when issued must have attached thereto the photograph of the holder. Any such licensee is allowed to take from the State 24 birds of all kinds killed by himself, but they must be carried openly for inspection together with the license. Fine for violation, $25.00 to $50.00, to which may be added imprison- ment for 30 to GO days. Fish are not allowed to be taken with seines, nets, spears, or traps, and persons may be fined $5.00 to $200, for having such appliances in their possession. This does not apply, however, when such appliances are used for taking fish in Lake Michigan, the Ohio River, or the Wabash River in so far as those bodies of water constitute boundary lines. Nor do these restrictions apply to owners of prlA'ate ponds who keep a seine for use in such ponds only, nor to minnow traps or seines. Any person who shoots fish in any of the waters of the State lays himself liable to a fine of $5.00 to $50.00 for each offense. For using dynamite or other explosives the fine is $250 to $1,000. and imprisonment 30 days to one year. Railroad and express companies, or other commo ; carriers, or individuals, are forbidden to transport or carry game or fish of any kind out of the State. BROWN COUNTY JAIL, NASHVILLE, IND, This is probably the most primitive couuty building of any kind in Indiana. Perhaps If the people of Brown County had more use for a jail they would build a more modern one. At the date of the jail census, October 31, 1904, the Brown County jail held no prisoner, and during the entire year ending upon that date there had been but seven incarcerations, and tAVO of these were tramps. (287) DECATUR COUNTY COURTHOUSE, GREENSBURG. SHOWING MAPLE TREE GROWING IN TOWER. This tree is about fifteen feet high, six inclies in diameter of trunlv, and has been growing there for twenty years. It is sup- posed to have started from a seed dropped in a crevice between the stones, but what the roots now feed upon, or how the tree manages to hold onto its perilous position through storm and wind is a mystery, and no matter how dry the weather, its foliage remains as green as that of other trees more naturally situated. The tower on which it grows is 134 feet high. (288) Geological Sketch of Indiana. (By W. S. Blatchley, State Geologist.) Periods of Geological Time. The surface rocks of Indiana represent five great periods of geological time. These, named in the order of their age, are the Lower Silurian, Upper Silurian, Devonian, Lower Carboniferous and Carboniferous. The Cincinnati Uplift. At one time the entire area of what is now known as Indiana was covered by a great ocean which stretched far away to the southwest, while to the north and northeast it extended beyond the present sites of the Great Lakes. In what is known as Lower Silurian time, an upheaval, caused by some subtferranean force, brought above the sea a large island of Lower Silurian rock, which, ever since, has been dry lan'd. The upheaval was greatest over the point where Cincinnati, Ohio, is now located, and the "Cincinnati Uplift" is the name giveif by geologists tb the island. The main portion of that island comprised the south- western corner of what is now Ohio and a part of northeastern Kentucky. It also included a small portion of what is now Indiana, and formed the first and oldest portion of the surface of our State. Belonging to this LoAver Silurian area is a part or all of the surface of the followiui^ counties: Wayne, Union, Fay- ette, Franklin, Dearborn, Ripley, Ohio, Switzerland and Jeffer- son. The exposed rocks which form the surface of these coun- ties are chiefly blue limestone shales, which are mterbedded with a highly fossiliferous limestone. While the drift covers ail of this area, it is everywhere quite thin, and in the valleys and the beds of the streams the surface rocks ai'e, in many places exposed. (19) (2<9) 290 AIooke's Hoosier Cyclopedia. The Gas and Oil Fields. In time, by another upheaval, there was added to this island in southeastern Indi.ana a large area of the present State. The rocks so added formed what is known as the Niagara lime- stone of the Upper Silurian period. It comprised a long penin- sula-like strip of land whose general frend was northwest and southeast. It is broadest in the northern portion and forms the surface rocks of all or part of the following counties: White, Cass, Miami, Wabash, Huntington, Wells, Adams, Jay, Black- ford, Grant, Howard, Tipton, Madison, Delaware, Randolph, Wayne, Henry, Hancock, Hamilton, Rush, Fayette, Decatur, Ripley, Jennings and Jefferson. It is in this area that ihe principal gas and oil fields of the State are found. Bores have been sunk through the Niagara or Upper Silurian, and the upper part of the Lower Silurian into what is know as the Trenton limestone. When the silt and mud from which this limestone was formed was first deposited in the sea, there was buried in it myriads of low forms of animals and plants. These wei'e shut off from the air by the water above them and by mud and other materials, and so did not decay, but imderwent a slow process of distillation and, in the course of thousands of years, were changed into the oil. From this oil a volatile natural gas arose and entered the porous parts of the Trenton limestone. In time man sunk his drill holes to this stone and piped off the gas and burned it as fuel. Since 1891 he has also removed from the Trenton limestone in Indiana 66,453,785 barrels of petroleum or crude oil, which sold for .$54,884,041. or an average of nearly four millions of dollars per year. In 1904, this oil was the most valuable ri'Utural resource of the State, there being produced during that year 11,281,0.30 barrels, valued at $12,127,107. Neither oil nor gas is being formed beneath the surface of Indiana at the present time, and we are, therefore, drawing upon a stored product, which can not be replaced when ex- hausted. Mooke's Hoosier Cyclopedia. 291 The Devonian Epoch. After the Upper Silurian period, the rocks of the so-called Devonian epoch were laid down in the ocean, and in time up- heaved. The3' comprise an irregular strip eight to forty-five miles In width, which lies along the western edge of the Niagara lime- stone, from the Ohio River near Jeffersonville, to a point near Rensselaer, Jasper County, and form the surface of the follow- ing counties: Clark, Scott, Jefferson, Jennings, Jackson, Bai-^ tholomew, Decatur, Rush, Shelby, Johnson, Marion, Hancock, Hamilton, Boone, Clinton, Tipton, Carroll, Cass, Tippecanoe, White and Jasper. The Devonian rocks are made up, for the most part, of limestones and black shales. The latter are often mistaken for coal. They contain some oil, and will burn for a short time, but are of no value as a fuel. From the limestones of this period what is known as hydraulic, or natural rock ce ment, is made in the southern part of the State. The Lower Carboniferous Epoch. Following the Devonian period came that of the Lower Car- boniferous. The rocks of this epoch are comprised of what is known as knobstone, or sand shales, and the Lower Carbon- iferous limestones. They form ihe surface over a strip of ter- ritory 40 miles or more in width, lying between the western edge of the Devonian and the eastern edge of the Carboniferous rocks, and extending from the Ohio River, near New Albany, iii a northwesterly direction to the Illinois line in Benton and Newton counties. The following countie.5. therefore, lie either partly or wholly within this Lower Carboniferous area: Benton, Warren. Tippecanoe, I'ountain, Montgomery, Boone, Hendricks, Putnam, Owen, Morgan, Johnson, BartholomeAV, Brown, Monroe, Greene, Lawrence, Jackson, Scott, Washmgton, Orange, Crawford, Perry, Harrison, Floyd and Clark. Building Stones and Caves. Two features of this Lower Carboniferous area are worthy of especial note. First, is the Bedford oolitic limestone, which is noted as the finest building limestone in the United States. 292 Moore's Hoosier CYCLOFEDrA. It is composed of the globular shells of minute one-celled ani- mals, which were deposited in untold myriads In the sea waters of the time. The shells or cell walls of these animals were com- posed of a very pure form of carbonate of lime, and when they died and sank on the old sea bottoms they were cemented to- gether by the same material. Under the lens they resemble a mass of fish eggs soldered togethei", hence the name "oolitic," which means "lilie an egg." The Bedford limestone is noted among architects for its strength and durability, and for the ease with which it may be sawed or carved into any desired form. Second, it is among these Lower Carboniferous rocks of southwestern Indiana that we find the noted caves of the State. These were formed in the limestone by the erosion of under- ground waters. Some of them possess great vaulted rooms, deep pits, high waterfalls and streams of water large enough to allow the ready passage of a boat. All of these caves are due to the action of water. During the ages which have elapsed since the limestone was raised above the sea, it has carved every room and passage in these caves, and has formed, by solution and evap- oration, the wonderful stalactites and other formations which decorate the walls and ceilings of their rooms. The largest and most noted of these caves is that known as "Wyandotte," in Crawfoi'd County, which excels in beauty the Mammoth Cave of Kentucky. It contains nearly five miles of subteiTanean pas- sages, and the largest underground rooms known to man. Carboniferous Area and the Coal Fields. The newest portion of Indiana comprises what is known as the Carboniferous area, in th? western and southwestern por- tion of the State. Nearly 7,500 square miles belong to this area, which comprises the surface of the following counties: Vermil- lion, Parke, Vigo, Clay, Sullivan Knox, Daviess, Gibson, Pike, Dubois, Posey, Vanderburgh, Warrick and Spencei'. The Car- boniferous area thus has a maximum length from north to south of about 200 miles and a maximum width from east to west of about 100 miles, being narrow to the north and broad toward Mooke's Hoosieb Cyclopedia. 293 the south. It is within ihis area that there occur those live great veins of coal which I'orms today the chief mineral wealth of our State, and those vast beds of overlying shale which, in recent years, have come to be used for so many varied products. In the year 1904 there was mined 9,872,404 tons of coal, valued at nearly ten millions of dollars, and it is estimated that eight billions of tons of workable coal occur beneath the surface of this portion of our State. Work of the Glacier. In addition to the area mentioned the three northern tiers of counties in the State are so deeply covered with the drift that the character of their sm-face rocks is not known, except where deep bores have been sunk in search of oil or gas. All of these bores have, however, shown the underlying rocks to belong to one of the five great geological periods heretofore mentioned. The so-called "drift" whicH covers all the rocks of this region of the State, and nearly three-fourths of its entire area, was brought from the north thousands of years ago by a great moving mass of ice, and deposited where it now lies. This ice mass was known as a glacier, and as it moved slowly south- ward, great masses of partly decayed rock and clay from hill- sides and jutting cliffs, rolled down upon it and were carried on to drop hundreds of miles from their parent ledges. All the so-called "boulders" and the drift soils of northern and central Indiana were thus deposited where they now lie. The level and more fertile counties of the State lie within the drift covered area, and its southei'n limit marks practically the boundary of the great corn and wheat producing portion of the State. But few of the prtsent inhabitants of Indiana realize how much they owe to this glacial invasion of our domain in the distant past. It not only determined the character oj. the soil, the contour of the countiy and the minor lines of drainage, but in many other ways it had to do with the pleasure, the health and the prosperity of the present population. Indiana Farm Statistics. ACCORDING to the Census of 1900, there are 221,897 farms in Indiana. These farms contain 21,619,623 acres, of which 16,680,358 are improved and 4,939,265 unimproved. The average size of farms for the state is 97.4 acres. A "farm" as defined by the Twelfth Census, includes all the land under one management, the house in which the farmer re- sides, and all other buildings used by him in connection with his farming operations. The value of the farms in 1900 was $841,735,340. Of this amount $154,101,880, or 1C.3 per cent represents the value of buildings and $687,633,460, or 81.7 per cent, the value of land and improvements other than buildings. On the same date the value of farm implements and machinery was $27,330,370, and of live stock on farms, $109,550,761. Adding these different values gives $978,616,471, the total value of farm property, which is far from being an inconsiderable portion of the entire wealth of the state. In the last ten years the total value of farm property increas- ed $109,293,684. The increase in the value of land, improvements, and buildings was $86,946,230, or 11.5 per cent; in that of imple- ments and machinery, $6,158,115, or 29.1 per cent; and in that of live stock, $16,189,339, or 17.3 per cent. The value of farm products for 1899 exceeds that reported for 1889 by $109,690,934, or 115.8 per cent. There are in the United States, 5,739,657 farms; 4,970,129 of these are operated by white farmers; 746,717 by negroes; 19,910 by Indians; 1,842 by Chinese; and 570 by Japanese. In Indiana the white farm operators number 220,835; negro, 1,043; Indian, 19. Total, 221,897. The total value of farm property in the United States, includ- ing land, improvements and buildings, implements, machinery and live stock, is $20,514,001,338. This is according to the Census of (294) Mooee's Hoosier Cyclopedia. 295 1900. In 1890 the total value of farm property was $15,982,267,689. The increase in the wealth of the farmers of the United States in ten years, therefore, was over Four and a half Billion Dollars. The gain in wealth of Indiana farmers during the same period, was $109,293,684. The average value per farm of farm property in the United States, is $3,574. In Indiana the average value per farm of farm property, is $4,410. In Ohio it is $4,333; in Illinois, $7,588; in Michigan, $3,396; in Kentucky, $1,712. The lowest average values are in the South- ern States. In Mississippi the average is $925; in South Carolina, $989; in North Carolina, $1,041: in Georgia, $1,016; in Alabama, $804.

The increase in the number of live stock from 1890 to 1900 was not great, the number of dairy cows even showing a slight decrease. The average value of calves under 1 year of age in 1900, was $9.81. Steers ranged from $21.38 to $47.75. The average value of bulls was $38.93; of cows kept for milk, $31.84; colts, $24.95; horses, $43.15 to $57.36; mules, $44.31 to $60.81; asses and burros, $115.22. The average price of lambs was $2.30; ewes, $4.02; rams and wethers, $4.81. Average price of hogs, $3.67; and of goats, $1.99. 298 Moore's Hoosier Cyclopebia. VALUE OF ANIMAL PRODUCTS IN INDIANA. Following are the values of the different items of the Animal Industry in 1899, as given by the Twelfth Census: Wool, $1,491,743; Mohair and goat hair, $282; Milk, Butter and Cheese, including the value of milk sold or consumed, and of all butter and cheese made, $15,739,594; Eggs, $7,441,944; All Poultry raised, $8,172,993; Honey and wax, $219,110; Animals sold, $40,865,661; Animals slaughtered on farms, $8,016,595. Total value of Animal products, $81,947,922. TOTAL VALUE OF FARM PROPERTY, FARM INCOME, ETC. As shown heretofore, the value of all crops in Indiana, was $122,502,274. Adding this to the value of Animal products, $81,947,922, gives $204,450,196, which constitutes the total value of farm products. The value of products fed to live stock on the farms of the producers, was $48,469,400. Deducting this from the total value of products leaves $155,980,796, which is styled the "gross farm income." There were no reports of expenditures fcr taxes, inter- est, insurance, feed purchased for live stock, etc. , so the net farm income could not be given. EXPENDITURES FOR LABOR AND FERTILIZERS ON INDIANA FARMS IN J 899. The total expenditure for labor on farms in 1899; including the value of board furnished, was $9,685,540, an average of $44 per farm. For the different classes of farms, the average amounts ex- pended for labor were as follows : $644 for nurseries, $520 for florists' establishments, $67 for dairy farms, $59 for vegetable farms, $55 for fruit farms, $51 for hay and grain farms, $41 for live-stock farms, $22 for sugar farms, and $16 for tobacco farms. Fertilizers purchased in 1899 cost $1,553,710, an average of $7 per icti in and an increase since 1890 of 99.8 per cent. The average expenditure was $32 for nurseries, $23 for florists' establishments, $8 for hay and grain farms, $7 for fruit farms, $6 for live-stock farms, and $5 for vegetable, dairy, tobacco, and sugar farm3.

FRAMPTON'S School House Window Shade THE BEST THERE IS! BOTH PLEASING AND HEALTHFUL TO THE EYE. A COMMON-SENSE WINDOW SHADE THAT FILLS A LONG-FELT WANT. ENDORSED BY HEALTH OFFICERS AND SCHOOL PEOPLE EVERYWHERE. Simple as is its construction and operation, it is difficult, in fact, impossible to describe In this small space FRAMPTON'S PERFECT WINDOW SHADE. It is made of soft- finished duck, and suspended from a single cord passing through an automatic catch pulley, and so constructed and arranged that it can be raised or lowered instantly, or re- duced in size 34, 3-2 or %. and manipulated so as to shade the window at top, bottom or middle, leaving as much of the rest of the window unshaded, as desired. No such con- venience for regulating and absolutely controlling the admission of light or sunshine through a window was ever before invented. It must be seen in operation to be properly appreciated. HIGH AUTHORITIES ENDORSE FRAMPTON'S SCHOOL HOUSE WINDOW SHADE D- It was exhibited by Dr. J. N. Hurty, Secretary of the State Board of Health, at a meeting of the State and Provincial Boards of Health of North America. Endorsed by The Health Bulletin, organ of the State Board of Health. Lawrence McTurnan, Deputy State Superintendent of Public In- struction, says: These (Frampton's) shades are constructed in such a manner as to give the best possible service for a longer period than any other shade that I have seen. C. A. Prosser, Supt. of Schools, New Albany, Ind.: We equipped our new High School building with I !8 of Frampton's shades within the last month, and are supplanting all old shades with this device. I re- gard it as being the best on the market. Other equally strong endorse- ments are given by T.F.Fitzgibbon, Supt. of Schools of Columbus, Ind. ; Edwin S. Monroe, Supt. of Schools of Frankfort, Ind.; A. E. Highley, Supt. Schools, Jonesboro; John W Dragoo, Trustee, Muncie; A. W.

HSince that time it has won its way ^"^ to the front ranii amonarst the greatest and most secure insurance companies of the world. To its credit stands the greatest record that any company has ever made, for its age. It will close the present year with upwards of Set)entt/=fiVe Millions of Insurance in force. The success of the Company, while phenomenal in volume of insurance written, has been no less remarkable in the character of the business. The Company is financially a rock of strength. The fact that its secur- ity is unquestioned results from the requirements of the law under which it was organized. The Legal Reserve Compulsory Deposit Law is the latest and most complete measure enacted regarding the govern- ment of life insurance companies. LTnder the Reserve Law companies are required to deposit with the Auditor of State, full cash value on all their policies; thus the State of Indiana, as custodian, holds full value of all policies. The funds of the State Life are therefore beyond the control of managers to dissipate. The law designates the character of securities companies shall deposit, which is a further guarantee of the absolute security to the policy holder. llThe State Life is the Company, above all others, that offers the brightest future and the greatest results to able and sincere men. It invites correspondence with those who desire to represent an institution which is solid, secure, successful. my 28 IS05 LIBRARY OF CONGRESS 014 751 766 A #
