MAYOR ROBERTS BACK AFTER EASH TRIP
Says Visit to Capital Wasn't Exactly Vacation, and Tells of Beraits of Journey.
Mayor Roberta, smiling and more energetic, If possible, than ever, appeared late yesterday afternoon at the city hall, and again took active hold of the city government after a week's •tay in Washington, D. C„ and New York City. When asked If he had been taking his vacation the mayor replied: "No, hardly. In fact the week has been more strenuous than If I had stayed in Terre Haute."
The real purpose of the mayor's trip to Washington was to Interest the Indiana representatives and senators In a memorial for the late Senator Voorhees. His plan found favor among the Indiana delegation In congress. The mayor also asked for three cannon for Terre Haute parks and the following bill was introduced by Congressman Ralph Mobs:
Be It enacted by the senate and Imtom of representatives of the United States of America in congress assembled. That the secretary of war be, and he is hereby authorlzedand directed to donate to the city of Terre Haute, in the county Of Vigo, state of Indiana, for the use of Memorial, Riverside and Voorhees
gronse
arks, in said city, three condemned or brass field pleoes with their carriages and suitable outfit of cannon balls for three pyramids.
Expects Bill to Pass.
The bill waa referred to the committee on military affairs. According to Mayor Roberts he expects to get the cannon in question from the Rock Island arsenal and thus save considerable expense of transportation. He says the cannon, which have been promised him in case the bill la passed. are some which were recently donated to a Kentucky town, but were not sent when the town could not raise the transportation price. Senator Benjamin Shlvely, according to the mayor, Is looking after the welfare of the project In the senate.
The mayor stated that he enjoyed the tr^p and that from the appearance of New York, Terre Haute should not kick on the number of streets torn up. He said that almost all of the resident streets of New York that he saw in his brief stay, were torn up, preparatory to being improved. He expressed himself as well pleased with the progress made during his absenco on Terre Haute's Improvements.
WOMAN ASKS POLICE TO HOLD HER CHILD UNTIL ARRIVAL
Meanwhile She Finds Boy At Home, While Lad At Headquarters is Claimed By Another.
A comedy of errors which resulted in one fond mother Journeying to police headquarters on a mistaken errand, was stayed Friday evening 'when a 5-year-old child was found by a patrolman at Seventh and Chestnuf streets.
The boy was taken to headquarters to await the certain call from the anxious mother. Soon a call came over the telephone: "Is this headquarters?" "Yes." "Have you a boy there, aboue 5 years old, with light hair and blue Jumpers "Yes," answered Desk Sergeant Doyle. "Well, I will be rtgrht down after him."
The sergeant waited a short time, while the boy, who was frightened, screamed in the office. Finally Special Officer Joseph Jeffers came to the rescue with a sack of candy.
Hardly had the child been pacified, -i when another call came, this time from a neighbor of the supposed mother.
After ascertaining that she was speaking to police headquarters, the neighbor woman said the child of the woman who was coming to headquarters had been found asleep under the front porch of his homte.
Later the child was identified as belonging to Charles A. Greer, 461 North Sixth-and-One-Half street. The father called for. the boy. 1
