EVERSMAN TO HELP GIVEJWATI START Police Head to Act as Sponger for Huntington on Parole.
Although serving as head of the police board, which superintends the detection and prevention of crime, Will Eversman showed today he was willing to help a man who is down and out by agreeing to' be sponsor for Earl Huntington, for the next year. Probably no other man in Wayne county has his name on the police record for such a variety of offenses as Huntington, who is now serving a 'term in Michigan City for taking a pair of ice tongs, value five cents. Huntington served three years, at Jeffersonville for the theft of an overcoat, then returned to Richmond. For a while he was on good behavior. When he stole the ice tongs he was sentenced to Michigan City. He appeared before the board of pardons April 30, after serving three years, and asked parole. This was granted on condition he would get some one to go sponsor for him and agree to find and keep him in employment. In answer to Huntington's appeal. Will Eversman agreed to help for a year. Eversman wrote to the warden at Michigan City today and expects Huntington to arrive in Richmond Friday. E Colored Persons Show Interest in Recital. Great encouragement was derived by members of the Citizens' union last night when reports of committees showed that more than $30 had been cleared by the entertainment and dramatic recital of Richard B. Harrison Monday night at the Gennett theatre. The fact that there was a large crowd to hear him, is a sign that the members of the race are striving towards culture and higher education, members of the union believe. Except for the reports of the committees in charge of the Harrison program, no business was -consummated at the meeting held last night. A business meeting will be held next Tuesday night.

Where the profit is in civic advancement. "We are coming to understand that not only should our bridges be beautiful, but our public buildings must be beautiful, our river banks must be beautiful, the homes of the poor as well as those of the rich must be beautiful and, being beautiful, will be such as the poor as well as the rich can live in safely, profitably, wisely. As we clean and beautify and make splendid the cities and the towns in which we live, as we tie them together into more and more efficient corporate units, struggling for the common welfare of us all, we shall find that the unlovely things in human nature, in our own nature, the dishonesties, the foulness, the dishonors that have held back so long and so terribly the progress of mankind will be more and more impossible. A city materially beautiful will be spiritually beautiful also." President Flavel S. Luther, Jr., of Trinity College, in The Chronicle, Elyria, Ohio.

" 4 H. R. Robinson, Mrs. Harry Holmes, OISCUSSJJGHT RATE Commercial Club Members Meet Today. Members of the public service committee of the Commercial club were to meet at 4 o'clock this afternoon for the purpose of discussing the proposed revision in the joint electric power rates, recently established by the state public utilities commission for the municipal plant and the Light, Heat and Power company. There has been a general protest over the minimum charge of 75 cents per month per horse power on the part of local power consul. iers, and it 's hoped to have this cha.e reduced considerably. Many of the concerns insist that the minimum charge is exhorbitant and that unless a considerable reduction is provided they will substitute gasoline engines for their electric motors. It is generally recognized that the electric plants are entitled to a reasonable minimum charge for readiness to serve. The city officials appear to be ready to grant any reasonable reduction of the minimum charge.

Two coffins, presumed to contain corpse, were .seized by. the military police for examination, and they were found to contain Mauser rifles and a supply of ammunition.

Canada, the United States consul, that United States troops stationed at an outpost, bad captured a Mexican water carrier with a quantity of rifle cartridges in his possession. A waterbag of pigskin carried upon the back of a mule was found to be filled with munitions.

More business was done here than for many a day as every soldier and sailor had his pocket full of money, and all spent recklessly. SET INSTALLATION The Rev.
