CHILD DIES FROM BURNS I.TESC SUFFERING OF THOMAS CIiEE!SE'S IXFAXT DAICHTEII. TIf IIa by- Palled m. lamp from tlie Table Daniel Halloran, Thirteen, nadir Injured. One child was fatally and another seriousW burned vcsterday by accidental fires The fatal case was that of the one-year-old daughter of Thomas L. Greene, who was burned badly early In the afternoon at fcer home 23 North Belmont avenue, by the upsetting of a coal-oil lamp, and died during the night. The other accidental burnJr.s: was that of thirteen-year-old Daniel Halloran. who severely burned his left leg through his curiosity to ascertain whether or not a fluid he had spilled on his knickerbockers was gasoline. Greene's one-year-old daughter was playing on the floor while the parents were seated at a table reading. In clutching at the cover of the table the baby jerked the cloth and drew a kerosene lamp down upon herself. The oil from the lamp flowed over her body, and the light from the wick started a fire which covered the body instantly. The light clothing burned fiercely, and when the mother reached for the child It was enveloped in flames from the burning oil. Mrs. Greene tried to pick the child up. and In so doing burned herself about the arms, hands and head. - Her husband realized the danger and snatched the child from her and pushed her away. Mr, Greene lay the child on the floor and wrapped It In rugs and clothing, rolled it about and beat out the Harnes. In doing so his own coat caught fire and burned his arms. His hands were burned and his hair and eyebrows scorched. The burns on his hands are so serious as to incapacitate him from his work as a machinist for a month or more. Dr. J. C. Curtis was called to attend the haby and a still alarm was sent to fire headquarters for the chemical to extinguish the fire threatening the carpet and the furniture of the room. The fire was put out before the arrival of the fire department and the los from it amounted to about J15. Dr. Curtis dressed the injuries of the baby and succeeded in alleviating th excruciating pain, lie found the child's tody badly burned. On the stomach, directly over the bowels, the burns were povere. On tlie shoulders and trunk of the bedv also the burns were so severe that the "chil l died at K.S) o'clock last night. DANIEL HALLORAN BURNED. The first accidental burning of the day was that of Daniel Halloran. of 52S Vest Abbott street, at 4 o'clock. He I.-i the thirteen-year-old son of Martin Hatloran. a laborer employed at the Kingan Packing Company. Young Haliaran. with a companion, was playing around the plant of the Indianapolis bridge and Iron works on Kentucky avenue during the afternoon. The boys amused themselves in climbing over the heaps of Iron and bridge material lying in the yard of the plant and were enjoying themselves immensely In accepting "banters" by taking hazardous Jumps. In jumping from a pile of piping Halloran landed on the top of a five-gallon can of gasoline, crushing the top of it through and splashing the oil over his knickerbockers and stocking. The rmcll of the liquid convinced Halloran's companion that It was gasoline, but Halloran would not believe him. To convince himself that it was not gasoline and to prove to the other boy that it was water, young Halloran pulled a match from hi pocket, struck it and touched the J'.ame to his stocking. The oil ignited Instantly and soon the whole left aide of the boy's body was In flames. Some workmen who were standing on a coal car near the yard saw. the flames and hurried to the boy's assistance. One of them took a coat, and afttr much difficulty succeeded in extinguishing the ftamcsf. He carried the little fellow to his home, where. Dr. Durham and Dr. Kennedy dressed the burns. The lower part of the left limb was burned severely, the flesh burned nearly to the bone. The physicians have hope of healing the burns, which are expected to leave no marks more than ugly scars. The burns are most -serious on the foot and ankle. The boy's hand was slightly burned In his efforts to extinguish the blaze. SALOONS AND POOLROOMS. Arrests 3Iade by the Police for Viola-. Hons of the Law. Cross Vogelson. was drunk yesterday and troublesome. He started an argument with a bartender In Charles Rosuck's saloon at 212 West Washington street and was ejected by the proprietor. The tight attracted the attention of Patrolman Al Smith, who happened to be near the place and he arrested Vojrelson for drunkenness and assault and battery and Rosuck for assault and battery and violating the litjuor law. Doth men were taken to the police station, where Rosuck. furnished bond and Vogelson was locked up. Other arrests for violating the Sunday laws and for permitting minors to play pool were cf Louis Gordon, whose place is ut 510 Hast Washington and John A. Vanpickle. who runs a pool room at IIS West Market street. The arrests were made by .Detectives Colbert and Hauser. MAY LOST HIS GRIP. it Mas, However, Later Located at the I nlon Station. William May and his grip caused the police much trouble yesterday evening. Mcy had been drinking at a North Delaware-Street saloon during the day and about 7 o'clock remembered that he was to have the city by an evening train. He got an accommodating friend named Martin to carry his grip for him. but on the Journey to the Union Station the two became separated and Hay grew Kuspiciou. He informed the police that he had been robbed cf his grip containing a suit of clothes and ether wearing apparel. The whereabouts cf the grip were a mystery until Patrolman Ehafer found it in the smoking room of the Lnion btatlcn, checked it and notified pouce neaaquarters.

STORY OF NOBLE YOi i

ADDRESSES AT MEETEVG OF CHARITY ORGANIZATION SOCIETV. Labors of the rast nnd Höpen for the Future the Theme of Earnest Speakers. PLEA FOE MANUAL TRAINING SIFT. KENDALL VIIGES ITS IMPOR TANCE IX EDI' CATION. Alexander Johnson, Rev. W. 31. Tippy and II ev. 91. L.. Haines Speak on Conditions Actually Existing. To the people who filled English's Opera House last night by invitation of the Charity Organization Society something of the quiet, unobtrusive but effective work of the organization was made clear. Not only things which have been done were told by forceful speaker?, but things which must be done if Indianapolis Is to remain In the front rank of progressive cities, as Indiana is In the van of progressive States. Hugh H. Hanna presided at the annual meeting of the Charity Organization Society, and C. N. Kendall, superintendent of the schools of this city, Alexander JohnSon, superintendent of the School for Feeble-minded Youth at Fort Wayne, the Rev. Worth M. Tippy and the Rev. M. L. Haines delivered addresses. The annual meeting of the society was successful from every point of view. The character of the speeches, the interest manifested, the size of the audience and the amount raised to help the society in the proscution of its work were all exceedingly gratifying. What must be done to secure the growth of children, normal as well as delinquent, into men and women, vigorous mentally and physically, was In effect the theme of all the speakers. The needs of children were recognized to be the thing that first of all must be taken into consideration. In the home, in the institutions, in the schools, wherever they are found, the proper guidance and care of children were emphasized. The duty of the State, of the city, of the society and of Individuals and the need for combined action of all these forces was made plain, effectively, earnestly and intelligently. MANUAL TRAINING. Superintendent Kendall took as his subject "Needs of Our Public Schools." He emphasized persistently the crying need for more manual training. After discussing the value of mental training in all its branches, Mr. Kendall observed that men tal training alone fails to develop the char acter of a child Into the proper propor tions. A child must have something to do in hl3 school life besides studying books. He should be given training, or partial training, at least. In some useful work. Particularly Is this method needed, he said, n the case of children who may not expect to make of themselves professional men, but who must from necessity of things look forward to earning a living by skill of hands. lual training will do much, said Su pi. indent Kendall, toward solving the problem of delinquent children and of chll dren who are allowed for one cause or an other to run half-wild In and out of school. With more provision for the teaching of the useful arts these children could be provided for, rescued from an aimless, perhaps crtm inal existence, and made Into men and women creditable to the city and State Very frequently, he said. It had come under his observation that children who mani fested absolutely no aptitude toward reading, writing or arithmetic, or toward the higher branches of mental training, were eager to know the whys and wherefores of manual work hinted at In their work. They gave evidence, he said, of an ability to rraster thoroughly a kind of work which would be especially applicable to their ex press needs. More manual training schools and better equipment of those now estab lished was the burden of his plea. Following Mr. Kendall, Alexander John son, speaking partly from his experience as superintendent of the great Institution at Fort Wayne, and partly. from familiarity with the kind of work done by the Charity Organization Society, talked on ' Our Ju venile Offenders." "Delinquent children." Faid Mr. Johnson, "is one of the greatest problems we have to consider. It was Vic tor Hugo who attributed ail crime to delln quent children grown to manhood and womanhood, but whether that is absolutely correct or not, enough of it is so to make very necessary their careful training. SAVING CHILDREN. uaa parents," sam Air. jonnson. "are responsible for much evil, and It Is neces sary for the society to get to work first of all in the homes and to save children there rather than outside of the home. The work of an organization is valuable largely be cause It has behind It the strong arm of the law. and pareifts who otherwise would pay heed neither to advice or orders will obey if they know' that the word is backed up by the law. That was proven true some years ago when the societly was particular ly active. The word went out among par ents who needed it that "the guardians '11 git ye If ye don t watch out, and as a re suit opposition to the work of the society vas far less pronounced than it would have been otherwise. This la not the best way to reach these people, but it is the second best. The friendly visitor of the Charity Organization Society does a work that can not be measured In dollars and cents. Care of children in the schools Is next in Importance, he said, to care of children in the homes. The time Is coming when the whole boy will be considered rather than his brain, and not merely the brain, but the hand will be trained to some useful end. Then there will be less truancy. for children not taken care of In one way will be In another, ihe population of In diana has increased very rapidly in the past few years, Mr. Johnson said, but the number of delinquent children has not in creased In proportion: and if the splendid showing is to be continued the work must be done with the same thoroughness, in the same spirit and the same sense of re sponsibility as In the past. "Children in the State schools are better off in some ways." said Mr. Johnson, "than they are In private and public schools. In the State Institutions physical training is carried very far with the best of results tnuaren are iaupni now xo worK. it is a great misfortune for a boy to grow up with out knowing what real hard work means ork to the point of good, healthy fatigue is a wonderfully good thing. Steady anplication and the knowing how to do some thing well with the hands is emphasized in the State Institutions. Boys should know what It is to work hard earlv in life. and then If a time ever comes when that kind of work is necessary for very existence it will not go so nard. "Indiana, said Mr. Johnson, "wants the best it can get In every way and is constantly looking out for uew and good meories in me way oi educating ts chlldr n. Beside the question of caring for children delinquent or normal, the ques tion or money is aosoiuteiy not to be considered. The tax rate should not be taken into consideration. Some people have the idea that an institution like the Reform School should be self-sustaining. Could there be a more ridiculous idea? Whv should a reform school be self-sustaining any more than a manual training school? Ask the superintendent of a manual train ing school If his institution should be seifsustaining ana ne will iaush at you. This is not a factory he will say. Neither is a reform school a factory. True, It may help to pay Its keep in a number of ways, dui mis is incidental. ALL RESPONSIBLE. "In this matter of car'ng for children. Iartlcularly the delinquent, we should feel our responsibility deeply. We cannot escape the responsibility. Carlisle tells a story of a poor woman sick to death with I typhoid fever, who was refused help first 1 one slace and then another, and who finally

lay down on a door-step and died. Out of twenty-seven people in the house, many sickened and died. The poor wretch proved

in that way that she was sister to an or them. They could not escape the responsi bility. The Institutions are ours, the State government is ours, the State officers are our servants, and we should recognize that whatever Is done is a part of our own work. With that in mind, let us go to work quietly and not get excited. We are doing some work well; we want to do more work better. We want a high standard. 1 wish every man and woman here could pay a visit to the Reform School at Plainfleld. or to the Girls' Industrial School in this city. You would then get into the spirit of the thing, and you would then understand Just what is needed. You would get the tpirit of the work, and your visits would be a help to those who are unselilshly labor ing there. "In making suggestions I would say, first of all, work in the homes; then in the schools for normal children; then, without parsimony, help In the work In the Institutions for the training of the defective. These Institutions should be supported lib- ! erally. They should have the best. A man once said that if one child were saved In all the work, the cost of the whole effort would be well spent." The Housing Problem" was the subject of the Rev. Worth M. Tippy, who drew a picture of tenement house evils in ;sew lork city that had come under his own notice, nnd compared them to conditions that exist to-day in Indianapolis. "De it ever so humble." said Mr. Tippy, "there is no place like home. I am not here to talk to you about the homes of the rich, or even the well-to-do, but of the places where people live who have only a moderate income. or very much less. Home is a sacred place. There the bride comes; there the children are born; there the battles of life are fought by the family; there old age enters, there death ends everything. Even the homes of the people who start In life with a handicap are sacred places, and It is of these that I am here to-night to talk about. MISERABLE HABITATIONS. Conditions in Indianapolis," Mr. Tippy said, "are naturally far better than in New York or large cities for obvious reasons, but there are many thing-s that should be looked into and bettered. There are people who spend their lives in miserable shanty boats or in hovels on the banks of White river, or in filthy, crowded, tinsanitary tenement houses that are literally death traps." He read a number of descriptions of places he had visited personally as evidences of real conditions that exist under everybody's nose. Enough dis tressing conditions may be found, he said. to arouse the sympathy and energry of any one who may have the time or the inclina tion to investigate for himself. Now Is the time, he urged, when these thlncs should be looked into and corrected, not only by individuals, but by the city govern ment it Indianapolis In the future is to be a city free from the horrible places with which New York is still poisoned. individuals can do a treat work bv visit ing the people In these places, said Mr. Tippy, and by helping gently and with common sense the unfortunates whom want or misfortune has brouerht to terrible passes. Mothers can be helned. children can be saved and men can be reclaimed irom aegradation. moral and nh valval. These things are not the mere speculations vi ineory, ne saia. out actual facts; they exist and can be benefited If citizens will out iaKe me proper Interest. The duty of the cltv he also rnintnd nut clearly. The city should regulate the construction of buildings so that they will be roomy enough, sanitary and have sufficient ngnt. it can see that al leva and strpot are kept clean. It can see to it that dnngerous and unsanitary buildings are either improvea or razed. The Rev. M. L. Haines, who who th list speaker, made a strong plea for the separation of the Girls' Industrial School from tne yv omens Prison. "It almost makes my heart bleed." he said, "when I go there and see small girls whose only crime Is that they have no home under th samt restrictions as women who are In there for muroer or other terrible crimes Thi should be changed. It must be chaneed." The State should build a hnmp for tha care of epileptics, he declared. There is no way m which they can be properly cared lur in me omer Institut ons nr.d it i al most a crime that no separate home and training is given them. Dr. Haines asked for eontrihntlon to tha work and In response to his appeal the plates that were passed by the ushers were well filled with monev and snhrrin. tions. The Reform Schcol Glee Club, made up of about twenty small boys from the Plainiieia institution, sang between the addresses and added greatly to the pleasure of nit- mt-finiK. The Invocation was pronounced by the !lev- c- K- Hacon. of the Roberts Park r. Church, and th henwiistt-n k.. the Rev. Robert S. Osgood, of, the Mayflower Congregational Church. AN AFFRAY IN A SALOON WILLIAM .M'CAIITY WOtxnEn nv WILLIAM GAIlIlAItD. The Latter Drove Away In a Ilnggy and Una Xot Deen Located Cause of the Fight. A serious cutting scrape was reported to the police yesterday morning and Bicycle Police Trimpe and Lowe were sent to Shel by street and the Belt Railway with dispatch. WThen the two men reached the scene they found William McCarty, a young man who lives at No. 2121 Ringgold street. In Anthony Schmidt's saloon with the left side of his throat cut from the chin to the ear. He was bleeding profusely but was placed in the care of Dr. Schenck, of the City Dispensary, who stopped the flow of blood, and after taking him to the City Dispensary sewed up the wound. The external Jugular vein was severed by the cut but was drawn together and McCarty taken to his home. He will recover. The cutting was the result of an alterca tion between McCarty and YV illiam Gabbard, of No. 1945 Barth avenue. Gabbard had a quarrel with McCarty's brother and when he threatened to look for him and "beat him up" McCarty interposed and said he would protect his brother. The two men began to fight and In the scuftle Oabbard drew the knife and cut McCarty on the throat. After waiting only a few minutes to find whether or not he had killed McCarty Gab bard left In a buggy which he had driven to the saloon and was not seen again dur ing the day. The police were unable to find him. but think they will locate him when he has recovered from his first fright at cutting McCarty. Schmidt, the saloon keep er, was ordered arrested by Captains Kruger and Gerber and was sent to the police station and charged with violating the Nicholson law. His saloon at No. li04 Shelby street was kept closed during the day. SHOT AT FOUR TIMES. William Preston's Visit tu Hin Sinter Xot a Pleasant Affair. William Preston, a colored man whose home Is in New York city, was Interrupt ed In his first visit In nineteen years to his sister, Mrs. Frederick Douglass, of 331 South Capitol avenue, yesterday by his brother-in-law, who tried to shoot him. Preston is in the city for two weeks, and not having had an opportunity of seeing his sister for many years searched for her name in the city directory and located her home. He called yesterday and afUr spending some time in conversation with her and her family of children was surprised to see his brother-in-law come in drunk. Douglass lay down on a bed with his shoes on and berated his wife for petty annoyances he said he had suffered during the day. When she and her brother had left the room to escape Douglass the lat ter followed her out and attempted to strike her. When Preston interposed Douglass drew from his pocket a revolver and shot at him four times. PreMon closed in on Iouglafs and succeeded in holding him until neighbors, alarmed by Uie shooting, came in and took the revolver from him. After this he was permitted to leave the house. Pres ton reported the occurrence to the desk sergeant at the police station, who shortly afterward received a report that Douglass was at home again engaged in "stacking the furniture." The district patrolmen were instructed to arrest Douglass when they find him. I CIMONA will cure that sore throat.

HOTEL LOBBY GLEANINGS

JACK ritOST HAS COME TO TOWS TO STAY THE YEAR AUOl.ND. He In n. Paint Mnnnfactnrer, nnd Hni Forsaken Canada for Indiannpolls Hotel Visitors. Jack Frost has come to town and he has come to stay. He has come down out. of the frozen north and nothing In the way of a climatic upheaval can prevent Indianapolis from having Frost the year around. As a matter of fact he is John C. Frost, a paint manufacturer, who has found his way to the center of Hooslerdom from Toronto, Canada, but to his friends and acquaintances he is known only as "Jack Frost," and he has been a long-suffering martyr to the punster. He has traveled a great ileal within the past few years and his advent into a new town or city has almost invariably been heralded by a newspaper paragraph similar to the foregoing. Consequently, he said last night, that he could not feel that he had been treated right If an Indianapolis newspaper did not sooner or later welcome him with this stereotyped, alleged Joke. Mr. Frost !s at the head of the Frost Flexible Lead Paint Manufacturing Company, which has just completed the erection of a factory in this city at North and Davidson streets. The machinery is now being put in and within a few weeks the establishment will be prepared to turn out from 400 to 500 gallons of paint daily. The company has operated a similar factory In Toronto for several years and started a branch some time ago In Buffalo, N. Y. It was found that the bulk of the business of the company In the States came from the Middle West and so the company decided to move the Buffalo plant to this city. The institution is not a large one, so far as the number of employes is concerned, but It will be a substantial addition to the manufacturing Interests cf Indianapolis. Mr. Frost is a Canadian by birth, and is, therefore a loyal subject of King Edward VII. "I expect to become an American citizen now, however." he said last night. "I have come to Indianapolis to stay, all my Interests will be here and so I naturally want to have the privileges of citizenship. "When I went to Buffalo three years ago I thought that I would take out naturaliza tion papers, but that was Just at the time when England was having so much trouble in South Africa and when I found that the oath was ko strong In requiring me to foresakc all ai'egiance to and sympathy for klnz Edwai.i. I couldn t aulte brlnsr my self to take P then. I felt that the King never needed loyal subjects more than at that time and that it would not be right for me to desert. That Is all over now, how ever, and I feel that I can become a loyal American without any conscientious scruples. I have Just taken out my first papers. I had thought that I should be able to vote at the next presidential elec tion, but I was Just a few weeks late in taking the first steps. I cannot vote until two years from the date of my first papers, which will be about ten days after the elec tion in 1304." Mr. Frost Is already an enthusiastic In dianapolitan. "This is a beautiful city," he said, "and I know that I shall like it as a place of residence. As a business center I do not believe there is a better city in the country- I am satisfied that there is none better for my business, or I should not be here. There are, of course, larger cities, but Indianapolis is so near the geographical center of the great Middle est, her rail road facilltes are so extensive, and her general business conditions . so excellent. that I believe the city has a great In dustrial future. I shall miss the lakes, or a large, river, but I suppose that if Indian apolis had these advantages others of even more .lportance would be curtailed. Mr. Frost will move his family to Indian apolis at once. At present he is living at the Denlson Hotel. SHOE 3IEX IX TOWX. TTrenty-Flve or More Traveling Men Xow at the Hotels. Traveling men representing the large shoe houses of the country began pouring Into Indianapolis yesterday, and by to-day it Is expected that twenty-five or thirty of them will be here. The occasion for their descent on the city is the semi-annual buying of one of the large shoe firms of Indianapolis This firm has established the custom of buying Its winter stock during the first week In December, a little later than any other establishment in the country buys, consequently all the traveling men in this territory get In here for the week. The shoe-selling season for traveling men Is short, running two periods of about eight weeks each during the year, from the mid die of March to the middle of May, and from the middle of September until the middle of November. "Indianapolis is one of the best shoe mar kets In the country," said G. F. Land, of Boston, last night. "I should say that conservative estimate would place the value of shoes sold here by commercial men at half a million dollars. That means that there is a retail trade of about $700,000 an nually. "You have one of the largest retail shoe stores in the United States In Indlanap olis, and the business of that one firm is a biK thinar for the traveling men. "What is new in the shoe line? There Is nothing that may be characterized as strict ly new. Styles are not changing radicaUy, and the tendency is toward plainer shoes all the time. Extremes and novelties have gone out. and there will be no more fancy stitching, abnormally heavy extension soles and stuff of that sort. The plainer the shoo the more elegant It is now. "You will never again see anything so radical as the razor-toed shoes of a few years ago. There Is no demand for them, and the manufacturers will not attempt to create a demand. Their experience with the razor-toes was disastrous. I hesitate to say how many factories and how many retailers were forced to the wall as a result of that one novelty in the shoe line, but the number was large enough to startle any one." English Teople at the Denlson. Mr. and Mrs. Alfred J. Meaken, of Staffordshire, Englend, are at the Denlson, the guests of Mr. Louis Hollwcg. Mr. Meaken Is a member of the firm that is one of the oldest and largest manufacturers of chlnaware In the world. The Meaken ware is widely known and a great quantity of It Is sold In the United States. WOMEN AND MISSIONS. At the Central Christian Church "C. W. D. 31. Day" la Celebrated. The services yesterday at the Central Christian Church were devoted to missionary work of women. It was known to the congregation as "C. W. B. M. day," and it was made memorable by the occupancy of the pulpit morning and evening by officers of the National Christian Women's Board of Missions. In the morning Mrs. M. E. Atkinson, the national president, spoke, and In the evening Miss Mattle Pounds, national superintendent, -a sister of the Rev. J. E. Pounds, formerly pastor of the Central Church, occupied the pulpit. The morning address of Mrs. Atkinson was eulogistic of woman and her sphere. "The century Just closed," she said, "has been called woman's era and America her paradise, because In this century as in no other, in broad, free, progressive Christian America as in no other land have unequaled privileges and possibilities been hfrs." What she can and will do she may, but that does not mean that her old-time duties have become obsolete. She spoke of woman's moral responsibilities and duties, and the necessity for her to Join in the work of soul-saving, of preaching the gospel to the ignorant and barbarous. In Mexico she said there was a most fertile field for work of missionaries, in other fields the practical work of the society had brought thousands Into the fold and the charities that attended the work were worthv of the fullest support. The women's auxiliaries were capable of doing most Important work by constant industry at home so that the work might be advanced, and she exhorted all the women of the congregation to Join the society and give of their best endeavors. In the evening Miss Pounds spoke of the

practical work of the C. W. B. M. It maintained academies in the mountains of Ken

tucky and Bible chairs in the universities of Michigan, Virginia and Kansas. It was engaged in missionary work amongst tne colored people. It was organized twentyseven years ago and has since grown to eminence and effectiveness. Its Income now is $140.000 annually. Six stations are maintained In India and three more are being established. There are missions in Mexico and Porto Rico, and In Jamaica there are twenty-one mission churches. IN THE COUNCIL TO-NIGHT. Mr. Xegley'a Ordinance Relating to Street Corn Municipal Affairs. Councilman Negley. will introduce the or dinance at to-night's Council meeting pro viding punishment for persons who jump on or off moving street cars. There is al ready a law against jumping on or off steam trains, but Mr. Negley thinks another ordinance protecting street cars is needed. The ordinance Is intended to step the practice of boys Jumping on and off cars for pastime, and which cost two lives within the past two weeks. The ordinance will provide a fine of $10 for boarding or jumping from a car while the same is in motion unless the person boards the same with the purpose of becoming a passenger or has been a bona fide passenger or is a member of the police or fire department cr an employe of the company. It is not likely the boulevard bond ordinance will be heard from, as the sentiment of the Council is felt to be adverse to Its passage. Councilman Negley, who has heretofore supported it, says he feels that the condemnation policy announced by the Board of Park Commissioners is without doubt the proper proceeding and that the Council generally feels the same way. Notices of the resignation of Harry M. Haldeman who was a councilman at large and president of the Council, have not been sent out by Mayor Bookwalter, but the mayor has announced that the special meeting to elect his successor will be held a week from to-night. Councilman Billingsley, Republican caucus chairman, says he will not call a meeting of the majority until the notices are sent out. LARGE CLASS INITIATED. Capital Council, Y. M. I., Took In a Class of Twenty-Three. Capital Council, of Y. M. I., initiated its last class of candidates for the year yesterday, when twenty-three were taken in.

When Found He Waa Lying- in the Water of Back Creek. Richard Hartman, the man who was found dead In Buck creek at the bridge east of Cumberland Saturday, was an em ploye of the Indianapolis Gas Company and worked in Indianapolis. Previous to a sep aratlon from his wife he lived on the John McConnel farm east of Irvington. Since then Hartman had lived in Cumberland and Indianapolis, alternately, and his wife is living In this city. Their two children live in Hancock county at the home of August Wolf, Mrs. Hartman's parents. Hartman was forty-three years of age and since his separation from his wife had been despond ent and an habitual user of liquor. He was seen in Cumberland Friday night about 8 o clock, but after that time no one can account for his whereabouts. When found in the creek, lying in shallow water, he was without bruises except for a slight abraison on the chin. Hartman was the son of Wllhemlna Hartman and has six brothers.
