HAPPY CHILDREN CROWDED SIREETS

Opening of School Caused Usual Rush For Dealers in Supplies —A Good Enrollment.

The streets were crowded with happy children from about 9 a, m. until noon Monday. The occasion was the opening of the school term in this city. The children all went to their respective buildings, received a list of needed supplies, and then in company with some older person usually, then went to the dealers to g£t their supplies. The dealers had prepared for them with plenty of help and handily arranged books, and a few hours sufficed to supply the needs of all. The.enrollment was very good for the first day of school, some being kept out on account of sickness. The work will begin in earnest Tuesday, and in a week everything will be regulated and running smoothly.

Unanimously Elected at a Special Meeting Thursday Evening, is Sworn in and Began Work

William Riley McKown, of North State street, is the new First ward Councilman to fill out the unexpired term of Frank C. Gibbs. Mr. McKown was unanimously elected at the special meeting of" the City Council Thursday evening. He was summoned from his home, sworn in and began work as a councilman at 8 o'clock, when an adjourned session was held.

At this session inspectors for the coming city election were named as follows: First ward, Herbert E. Leech Second ward, W. A. Hough Third ward, Henry Stringer.

I FIRE

OE DOUBTFUL ORIGIN

Many Evidences That Offutt House Occupied by Oscar Stephens, Was Set on Fire.

It looks like an incendiary is at work in Greenfield, judging by the appearances of the fire on North East street Sunday nigfit, which damaged the house owned by Samuel J. Offutt and occupied by Oscar Stephens and wife.

It was about 11:30 o'clock when the fire department was called by Mr. Offutt, who discovered the flames upon returning home. The department responded at once and found fire burning in two rooms, a parlor and dining room. A dense coal oil smoke hindered the progress of the firemen, but they succeeded in putting out the flames in a short time. An investigation led them to believe that the fire was of incendiary origin, .as excelsior and rags, saturated with coal oil, were found where the fire started in two places, and a coal oil can, empty, was found under the floor of the house.

The State Fire Marshal was notified by the firemen, as by law required where there is evidence of a fire having been set. The damage to the house and goods was not large, but had the fire not been discovered when it was, the building and contents would have been destroyed.

Mr. and Mrs. Stephens were not at home when the fire occurred, having left in the evening for Knighistown. where they intended to remain until Monday, when they were to continue on to Greenville, Ohio. Mr. Stephens' father telephoned him at Knightstown today, and he returned home.

To Buy Voting Machines. The Wayne county council has appropriated $21,000 with w7hich to purchase voting machines. In commenting on this fact the New Castle Daily Times has the following to say: "Before making any purchases, the commissioners would do well to visit Henry county. We have twenty-one of the besf machines mad?—as good as new, and guaranteed to do good work. We have reason to believe that these machines might be had if the matter were left to the voters. They are money savers. In exactly the same way the man saves money when he replaces his horse and buggy with a six cylinder automobile. If Wayne county has no experience in the six-cylinder business, some of her citizens can supply the information. They are elegant machines to compel a voter to vote a straight ticket, and the despair of the independent voter."

Davis & Clayton delivered one of their cement vaults to New Palestine Sunday.

Harry Banker, of near Wilkinson, was in Greenfield Saturday.

Mrs. Ray Bartholomew, of Marion, is spending the weels with her aunt, Eliza Mitchell.
