Wiley Advises Teachers. As soon as Mr. W llcy readied hi? fcoftice in the High school building lie telephoned to the dilloient schools the oft'ect of the order, viz.. that they should ndnnt. all students today. 1 he lesult was that with but a few exceptions the .children who have been out of school ?.en account of the order issued by the Aboard of health returned this morning "fand what few were not in their seats this 'morning were back in school this afternoon- The first Clerk Sharpe knew of
the restraining order was v\hen he
IhmhI
'-•Mr. Wiley telephoning to the difleient ^principals. He at once sent word to wife that their child could re-enter •''school but the boy was not sent this morning. •*. The: action of the anti-vaocinationists \vas no surprise to the school oi health authorities. It was known \esteiday I that an injunction would be issued and
it was but a matter of time until »1he fight would reacvli the eouits. 'Hie aboard of health will be lepiesented by 5City Attorney 1'. M. Foley and it is i-lpro'bable that Lamb & Measley will be ^attorneys for the school boaid. Flic an-^ti-vaccmationists will be repiesented by
Judge D. M. Tavlor. George Ira Kisner ^and Eli TJ. Redmon. all of whom have been active in the opposition that developed several davs asro. .ludge Tavlor 7-seems to be leader the fight.
Who Plaintiff Is.
Contrary to former eases the uit was "Hot filed by prominent anti-vaceination-Sists such as Frank D. Blue. How aid
Mater, Judge Tavlor, Ira Kimici oi E. H. Redmon. all of whom have hud clnldren sent from school. I a In nth on Halfertv, in whose name the suit was brought, is comparatively unknown in "sTerre Haute. He is an insurance agent vand has lived in Terre Ilaute less than a year. It is said that the anti-vacci-*nationists chose Halfertv to make a •'scape goat of lnm because he was not '.•well acquainted with the law and with '-•previous cases of this nature. The Halferty children created considerable tioublc at the Eleventh district school sever•sal days ago, when they ran at one door and out of another. Their tncks were finally foiled by the good genei airship of Miss Kate Moran, who moved the «other pupils from their c.aws room but guarded the Halfervs until the otlier children had been safely seated the '.new room. 'i Dr. S. M. Rice, secretary of the board of health, seems little concerned over the injunction issued. He said the suit •would be carried to the highest, courts with City Attorney Foley as legal adi!visor of the board of health. Tt seems to be the opinion of those connected with the board that the antis are only /bluffing. Thev have succeeded in having .-t the time for first hearing set for the jlatter part of next week, when every day sees the smallpox epidemic subside and the danger become less. The order of compulsory vaccination would have been raised as soon as the danger was over. Taking advantage of such conditions the anti-vaccmationists are playing for time.
Dr. M. R. Boor, who has been attending the smallpox patients said this morning, "I don't see how anv law can be legal that will allow children in the vs schools who .are detrimental to schools,
•f
While the children may not have the disease themselves they are liable to have it unless they are vaccinated and being a menace to public health is sufficient i* grounds for keeping them out of school."
There were no new cases of smallpox last night or this morning. The warm weather will be one of the irrcnte-t helps possible to the board of health and un-p-Kj less another extremely cold wave comes the disease probably is under control.
Dr Boor said today that, llieie weie RK^i many different kinds ot pust ules on the Jbsf bodvs of patients Some of them mditheeM catc varioloid or serious vaccination, but ,'vthey are all quarantined as tini the |iili only means of making eveiybod\ safe.
Serious cases of smallpox may be contracted from mild cases of varioloid.

KNAPP ADDS MOIRE CRIMES TO' HIS APPALING CAREER
(Continued from Page One.)
Kruger, and vrhen told that she could, and being uskfcd why she wanted to see him, stated that she desired to go ^to Hamilton to be with her husband. She stated that she had received the letter which appearn in today's paper from Knapp this morning, and had answered it. Upon being pressed for the contents of her answer, she explained that she told him she would be true to him and stick to him. and to tell the judge in Hamilton that h,e was a brute.
And this is the one predominating feeling of the little woman over the matter. She will be as true as a wife can be to her husband. She is doing her best, which is not hard, as she evidently knows little about the matter.
Thinks Husband Insane. "I'll tell you what I think,' said she. "I think he ni going crazy. He often acted kind of queer, and if you will look at his head you will see the niaiLs of a horse's hoof where he was kicked when he was a little boy. He is not guilty of those 'murders, and he is not guilty of setting the barn on fire. He certainly isn't guilty of killing that little gill. Whv, if he wasi that kind of a man, why didn't he kill me? They got him in a sweat box there and played the steam on him and he told all those things to get out.''
It wa« here suggested to her that the defense of Knapp would probably be insanity, and she jumped up and clapped her hands, saying: "That's it, that's it, he was insane he used to sit over there and roll his eyes." "Now,'" slie continued, "if they would only give him another chance I would make a man of him. Why the worst they can bring against him is bigamy, and they can send him over the road for that for ninety days. But that isn't so bad ns for life, or the electric chair. If he is guilty it is a good thing he confessed, for that will *ave him from the chair."
Mrs Knapp wept frequently during the interview and seemed truly and sincerely to care for the man. She did not want to consider him at all guilty of the crime, but seemed to falter when confonted with his confession. Then she would rally and declare that he must be crazy and that the statement was forced out of him by the tortures of the sweat box. She was sure that the statement that he had confessed to killing little Ida Gebhard was not so.

derer of two wives, one woman and two girls now under arrest at Hamilton, O., began his career of crime in Terre Haute He was arrested January 25, 1884 for larceny and February 27, 1884 pleaded guilty before Judge Scott in the Vigo Circuit court and was sentenced to the Jeffersonville reformatory for one year. He was released before the expTration of his term on good behavior.
While Knapp lived here he was employed as coal hauler by N. S. Wheat. He was arrested for stealing an overcoat of a fellow workman, but the case was not prosecuted fts the stolen coat wt|s returned The trouble cost Knapp his position and he apipealed to the Rev. H. O. Breeden, then paator of the Central Christian church. His professions of repentance and desire for work led the pastor to give him employment around the house. While in that capacity Knapp stole a purse containing $3.80 from a domestic na.med Laura Goodman who •was in the employ of the pastor.
26 South Seventh St.
The money was found in his possession and when arraigned in the Circuit court Knapp pleaded guilty to the charge and received, his first prison sentence.
November 19, 1883, two months before his arrest for larceny Knapp married his first wife. Miss Emma Stubbs then a girl of 17, became the bride of the man wno has since led a life with hardly a parallel in criminal history. The license was issued by County Clerk Merill N. Smith and the ceremony was performed by Rev. H. O. Breeden. During Knapp'g confinement in the Jeffersonville reformatory his girl wife secured a divorce and later left the state. She has no relatives here and it is not known where she is living at the present time. However, it is supposed that she is in West Virginia.
