SHOT BY OFFICER: AT

Bipoty Marshal C. A Ellis, of Shirfey, Says He Shot in Self Defense —Elected Marshal Saturday.

James A. Bailey, known as "Ourley," the Shirley barber, who was shot hy C. A. Ellis, the deputy marshal of Shirley, Friday night, died Sunday at the 8b. Vincent hospital at Indiauapoli9 of his injuries.

It is said that Bailey attacked the deputy marshal with a razor and that the officer shot only in self defense. The bullet took effect in the victim's neck and ranged downward, lodging in his side, completely paralyzing the body. The fact that the razor in the hands of Bailey struck the officer's badge saved his life.

PEOPLE STAND BY OFFICER.

The people of Shirley stand by the officer, as is evidenced by the fact that at the election held Saturday to elect a town officer, Mr. Ellis was •lected marshal over four competitors, receiving three times as many votes as his nearest competitor.

The town Board, it is said, has declared its intention of standing by kim to the finish. The shooting occurred on the Hancock county side •f the line and any prosecution will be by the Hancock county authorities,

The coroner of Marion county where Bailey died began an investigation Monday, and notified Sheriff Oox and Prosecutor Ed Quigley, of this county.

The sheriff went to Shirley Sunday evening and arrested Ellis, on order ®f Judge Mason and brought him to this city, where he was lodged at the jail to await a preliminary hearing.

Bailey's former home was at Portland, where his parents and a brother live. It is said he had a bad reputation and was intoxicated when he attacked thp officer.

BOUND OVER TO GRAND JURY.

Mr. Ellis was bound over to the grand jury by Squire Gimason, under a|5,000 which he readily gave, as several Shirley men came down for that purpose. He returned to his feome when this matter was adjusted.

HIRE SOU OF GOOD HRSE BYALONZO RiGE

Alonzo L. Bice, whose name is familiar to Indiana newspaper readers as a writer of verse, found his first introduction to the public in the columns of the old Indianapolis Journal fifteen years ago or more. At that period his productions were often •rude and amateurish, but they showed promise, and the promise has been well fulfilled. Without great encouragement—for, contrary to the accepted belief, Indiana is not invariably hospitable to her poets—Mr. Rice has continued to write, and, with constant effort toward improve, ment in thought and form, has producedj work of much merit, and has secured recognition in a wider field than in his own State.

In a pretty little volume entitled "Sunways of Song," recently issued, he includes many of his best poems. It is a collection that does him credit and entitles him to an honorable place in the ranks of the minor poets of the country—this class including the great majority ot those now publishing their-wares in book cr magazine. Mr. Rict: baa gained an admirable command of verse form and no jarring notes are encountered. Description and tender sentiment, the latter in many phases, from love to religion, are his chief themes, and the sentiment conveys in many instances the impression of being an expression of genuine feeling—a quality rare in most verse of the day.

Manypages invite to quotation, but space will permit only these stanzas, "Success": Because I toiled and failed once at a task, With purposeless zeal, shall I suspend Further attempt? Wear failure's tinsel mask? Bound byt disaster's shackles to the end? No! With tomorrow, breaking this restraint, And faced about, full-purposed to the last, In brightest tints the future I Bhall paint, And not retouch the background of the past,

Mr. Rice, who is a resident of Shelbyville, is a contributor to numerous periodicals. Charles Major, author of "WhenJKnighthood Was in Flower has written an introduction for the volume and Frank L. Stanton, of the Atlanta Constitution, contributes an epilogue, ^Sherman, French & Co., Boston, 3

AGED WlMOWED III JUST TWO YEARS

The death of Mrs. Lucinda Gates, of Blue River township, Friday night, calls to the minds of the relatives and friends, an unusual coincidence, as her death occurred just two years to the hour, after the death of her husband the late Dayton Gates. The same undertaker, Oak S. Morrison, was called for both and was at the home caring for the bodies at the same hours of the day. but just two years intervened.

The funeral of Mrs. Gates occurred Mondav at 10 o'clock at the residence.

Jacobs, wife and daughter spent Saturday night and Sunday with Thomas Foster and wife in Blue river township, Sunday morning when a match was struck to make a fire, the gas which had evidently been escaping during the night, exploded, scorching a fine rug and damaging some other decorations.

The Marat Theatre.

Unusual interest is attached to the appearance of Henry E. Dixey, the popular American comedian, at the Sbubert Murat Theatre, Indianapolis, Nov. 24-25-26, opening the engagement with a special Thanksgiving Day Matinee Thursday. Mr. Dixey has not appeared here for

The older theatre-goers will recall Mr. Dixey's work when he was the principal comedian in the Gilbert and Sullivan comic operas, and later with the Augustin Daly company. His first great part was "Adonis'', which he played more than 3,000 times. Mr. Dixey and the late Richard Golden used to play the humorous Heifer in Edward E. Rice's production of "Evangeline." Then came "The Man on the Box," "The Devil," "Mary Jane's Pa," and other plays, with Mr. Dixey continuing in favor wherever he appeared.

The popular American fun-maker will be seen here in George Paston's and W. B. Maxwell's three-act farcial comedy, "The Naked Truth," at present the laughter rage of London, where .Charles Hawtrey has been appearing as "Bunny" Darrell for over seven months, beginning at Wyndham's Theatre and at present Bfc the Prince of Wales. The comedy concerns the predicament in which Bernard Larrell (Mr. Dixey) finds himself, when under the influence of a peculiar ring, he is compelled to tell the truth under any and all circumstances, greatly to the displeasure of many of his best friends. His truthfulness nearly costs him the hand of his fiancee and the friendship of his business associates.

Mr. Wm. A. Brady, under whose direction Mr. Dixey is starring this season, has surrounded the comedian with one of the most representative comedy companies ever sent from New YorkCity. The complete cast includes Miss Marie Nordstrom, Miss Ruth Shepley. Miss Isabel West, Miss Dorothy Davies, Miss Lillian Dix, Miss Blanch Bryant, Miss Marie Pert, and the Messers, Herbert Standing, Spottiswoode Aitken, Kenneth Davenport, Fredrick Roberts, George Ives and Thomas Slater.

Prices range from 50c to $1.50, seats now on sale.

English's.

Robert Edeson comes to English's Opera House, Indianapolis, on Wednesday, November 23rd, in his own play, "Where the Trail Divides," which was written by the star from Will Lillibridge's novel. In the new play Mr. Edeson will again essay the role of an American Indian as in "Strongheart." The leading character is How Landor, a full blooded Sioux of modern dress and habit who is confronted with the struggle of his life when after marrying a white girl, he finds that race prejudice has resulted in all her white friends shunning her. To make matters worse he finds that she is in love with a white man. With tcis complication as his basis, Mr. Edeson has evolved a splendid play, one which gives promise of being his greatest stellar vehicle.

Of exceptional interest to theatregoers is the announcement that David Belasco will present Miss Frances Starr at English's Opera House, Indianapolis, on Monday and Tuesday, November 28-9th in Eugene Walter's remarkable play '"The Easiest Way." This play, which ran for one" year at he Theatre in New York, is -h- strongest, play by an American :iur!x uroduced in a decade. It will .s.M-n here with the New York cast and [.i-odnol ion. The Easiest Way" -1 i-s that aspect o'New York life :h is ei-noorned with the tragedy *ii..ne women who are so wedded to luxury ihat they "will pay almost any tor f!ijot\nu ut The scenes an.- id at a country house near Colorado Springs, in a room in a cheap side street theatrical boarding house and a drawing room of an ultra expensive apartment, hotel in New York. In view of the fact that the production is made by Mr. Belasco there is little need to dwell upon the perfection and artistry of the setting. An exceptionally capable company surrounds Miss Starr.

On Demember 1st, 2nd and 3rd, with a matinee on the 3rd, "Bright Eyes," will be the attraction at English's Opera House, Indianapolis. It is a musical play in three acts, offered by Jos. M. Gaites, book by Charles Dickson, lyrics by Otto A. Hauerbach and music by Karl Hoschna. It is a three act version of Charles Dickson's Sketch, "Mistakes Will Happen," and is full of funny situations, and is called the companion-piece to the "Three Twins." The story is that of a jovial actor, out of a job and looking for a backer for a play which he has written and a young actress, to whom he is secretly married. The comedy is based on mistaken identity and is faithfully carried out until the end. A few of the songs are "Fan, Fan, Fan,"' "Mrs. Casey," "The Good Old Days of Yore," "For You Bright Eyes," which prevails through the entire piece, "Cheer Up Honey" and many others.

Gome to think of it, none of us have ver much time, when all is said and done, that we can really count upon but if we knew that the "end" was only a few years, or possibly months, away, how differently we might live! If we would but live each day as it were the last on earth— and how certainly it may be— believe me, there are a lot of loose ends we would pick up before the day was ended.

When we look at the merry faces of children on their way to school one cannot .help but feel that school days are happiest after all. But there's the mother. She stood at the front window this morning and gazed at the little figure retreating up the street. She watched him trudge bravely along until he turned the corner, and while her chin quivered, and the tears almost b.inded her. Then, when he had quite disappeared from sight, the grip at her throat almost stifled her, and going to her room, she wept long and softly. He was gone, with never a thought or a dream of the ache in the heart of her who followed him to the door, who held him close in her arms, who kissed him so tenderly and tried to smile bravely at him. Gone, with never an idea of the big aching void he left behind. Gone, with a smile on his lips, a laugh in his voice, an expectancy in his eyes, and a tingle in every footstep. Gone, for his first day at school. But how. empty and quiet and desolate that home seemed! No more baby now. No more toddler to make music and noise and dirt and confusion and sunshine about the house. No more little fellow running to mother a hundred times a day with bumps and bruises to be kissed, or troubles to be smoothed away. No more little boy at all. He's a J)ig boy now, and he goes to school. He has so many new interests that he quite forgets the days when he was mother's boy, and when he and mother were the best of chums. He is a big boy now, and he has so many new friends. And when

he C"m*8 home, there's a face watching for him, at the window, and the door is opened before he reaches the gate, and there are two love hungry arms outstretched for him He is so babbling over with news that he can hardly wait for all the kisses that would be showered on him were ne less able to talk. Then mother takes him in her arms and holds him close to her, while he tells of all the wonderful adventures of the day. And he wonders why mother is so quiet and serious.

This from the pen of an unknown, is not so bad: I've been through the mill, my boy, I have bumped the bumps of fate, I've seen gold turn out alloy, I've seen friendship turn to hate, I've seen plans go far astray When it seemed they must succeed. Take a tip from me today, Never go above your speed. Never spend a cent unearned, Never gamble on the morrow, Here's a lesson man has learned Very often to his sorrow Let an old man tell you now Save a little—you may need, Guard yourself, and anyhow Never go above your speed. I've been through the mill, I know just how easy life appears To the eyes of youth, but, oh, Far down the lane of years Disappointments wait for you, Vain will be regrets, indeed, Keep your heart and purpose true Never go above your speed.
