FRATERNITY PLEDGES ARRESTED ON CORNER
Young Men Sent to Jail on Trumped Up Charges of Disturbing the Peace.
Pedestrians along Wabash avenue were startled last night with the war cries 'of Indians" and the daring riding of cowboys, all of which was given a climax by the rushing of an automobile patrol to Seventh and Wabash avenue, where Ray Thomas ana Ray Werneke were arrested and sent to JaJl, charged with disturbing the peac?
Anxious Inquiry from thte people standing near the corner of Seventh street brought out t.he fact that the entire affair was the pre-initiatory vpork of the Kappa A!pha_Phi fraternity and that the young men arrested were to be held In jail until 11 o'clock, when they would be taken across the mysterious sands of the fraternity. The youths were badly scared, though, and a crowd was attracted which blocked traffic at the corner.

MAYOR TO CI ALL OF TIME TO CAMP WORK
Will Spend Entire Week Preparing For Pythian Encampment—First to Decorate Home.
From now on until next Sunday morning, when Camp Arthur J. Stobbart, at Nineteenth and Wabash avenue, will be ready for the members of the uniform rank, Knights of Pythias, Mayor Donn M. Roberts, who is chairman of the camp committee, will devote his entire time to preparing the big thousand-tent camp for the reception of the visitors. In all the history of Pythian encampmentsit never has happened that any municipal executive has given the attention to an encampment that Mayor Roberts has and those having city business with him during the ooxnlng week will probably have to see him at the camp.
He began the first active work yesterday morning when Street Commissioner Joe O'Mara, with a force of men, began cutting the weeds on the west part of the camp site, preparatory to arranging for the concessions. The cutting of the oats was also begun and will be continued today. Monday morning the work of putting In the 1400 foot sewer from the rear of the caxnp to the Wabash avenue sewer win begin, under the personal supervision of the mayor, himself an expert engineer and sewer contractor. As soon as this has been completed the laying of the water mains will be carried out and the erection of the electric light posts begun. C. J. Wagner, of Cleveland, who has the contract for erecting the tents for the camp, will begth his work as soon as the field has been cleared of the oats, as the construction of the sewer, the laying of the water mains and the erection of the light poles will not Interfere with his work.
Decorates Residence.
As he was first to start the "clean up" program Mayor Roberts was the first to decorate his residence for encampment week. Many business houses have been decorated but the first residence to be officially decorated by J. F. GasthofE, the official decorator, was that of the chief executive near Seventh and Poplar streets. The American flag and the Pythian colors, blue, yellow and red, are displayed at his home The decorators have begun their work on east Wabash avenue and with the encampment a week away it is already a mass of flags and Pythian decorations.
There seems to be no question that In the history of similar entertainments for the "Army of the Lily" no city has ever shown the pride in decorating for the reception of the visitors. Chairman Marx Myers, of the decorating committee, yesterday received a proposal for the marking of the Pythian colors on all the trees and poles along the line of the big military parade, and it was so reasonable that there seems no doubt ]but that the proposal will be accepted. This will be a feature never before offered at a Pythian encampment, and when the marching visitors see the colors of their order emblazoned on every tree and every telephone pole along the four mile line of march they probably will realize that their visit here is appreciated. The idea of marking the trees was original with John Steinman, a member of Oriental lodgo No. 81, and he has probably established a precedent that will be followed in every city where the Uniform Rank is hereafter entertained.
Decorators Visit Camp.
The decorating committee will visit the camp site this morning and select the spot where the big electric sign, "Welcome, K. of P.," is to be placed. It probably will be at the west line of Kent avenue, where the concessions will begin. A fifty-foot avenue will lead from this point to the first main street of the encampment, running in a southeasterly direction. The first of the paid concessions, all of which will be located on the south side of this avenue, will be the mess tent, which will have facilities for entertaining 710 persons at a time. The others will be placed east, along this line, while on ihe north side will be placed the ladles' rest tent, the telephone and telegraph booths, press tents, etc. Tnis street, which has yet to be named, will be 400 feet long.
General Stobbart's headquarters will be located 120 feet south of Wabash avenue at Twenty-second street, and the main central avenue of the camp will run Bouth from here between the row of trees, this avenue to be named Carnahan avenue, In honor of the founder of the uniform rank. The street running east and west in front of General Stobbart's headquarters, which will face south, will probablj' be named Roberts avenue in honor of the mayor.
The big tent for the Iola team work will be placed on the knoll west of the camp, half way between Wabash avenue and Ohio street.
ANARCHISTS HOLD MEMORIAL.
Heavy Police Guard Prevents Disorder in Union Square. NEW YORK, July 11.—Anarchists held memorial services for their dead In Union Square this afternoon. Although a thousand police and several ambulances and patrols were on hand, nothing extraordinary happened. Two men who disclaimed being "rede" were arrested for street brawling. Two anarchist speakers, who were particularly violent in their denunciations cf law and order, may be arrested later, but in the main the speakers all counselled peace and order.
Seven hundred stalwart police with drawn night sticks patrolled Union Square and kept the crowd In a narrow block outside the Square park. Three hundred plain-clothes men circulated in the crowd. Two police stenographers took every word. One thousand picked patrolmen were ready for riot duty in nearby stations. But police precautions were unneeded. -Arf. 'v ANY KIND OF HELP SECURED.
