P. DUNN OUTLINES PLANS LETTER TO GOVERNOR.

RELIEF FARM IS MENTIONED

Governor Ralston has received several suggestions for state or local memorials to James Whitcomb Riley. Among them one Is from Jacob P. Dunn, formerly city controller of Indianapolis. Dunn's suggestion was that an arch be placed across Meridian street at St. Clair street, near the new public library, in commemoration of Riley, who, Dunn says, is "the Hoosier who has the least need of a

memorial.’*

Dunn’s letter to the Governor follows: "My Dear Governor—I presume that you will be consulted about the proposed Riley memorial, and I want to urge you to use your influence to prevent Its taking any commonplace form. American art has run In ruts until statues and memorial' tablets are almost as common as tombtones. Riley deserves something out of the ordinary, and I would suggest that there is an opportunity to do something out of the ordinary in connection with our new city library, which his generosity made possible. Would Give Court Effect. "Meridian street narrows at St. Clair, where the new library is located. An arch across Meridian street on the north side of St. Clair would serve the double purpuose of masking the change in the street and giving a court effect to lower Meridian street, with the Monument at one end and the arch at the other. A Riley arch would be as unique as the Monument, and it could be made a genuine state tribute by making it a work of Indiana artists. What a glorious thing It would be if Amalia Kussner Coudert could be induced to make a medallion of Riley and George Gray Barnard could be induced to make a bas relief from it for the face of such

; an arch.

"Pardon me if I seem officious, but as a dtiien of Indiana I would like to see something Impressive—somethlns that would command attention—If a memorial to the Hoosier who has the least need of a memorial is attempted. Yours very truly,

"J. P. DUNN.”

Suggestion By the Rev. John Asher. Governor Ralston was not at his office and it was said he expected to be away until Saturday morning, visiting at the home of a brother, In Owen county. The Governor, it was said, had not formally answered a letter from the Rev. John Asher, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church, of Sellersburg, Ind., in which Mr. Asher suggested that a children's relief farm somewhere in Indiana be established by popular gift as a tribute

to Riley.

A part of Mr. Asher’s letter follows: "Country life, children and home were ever themes dear to the heart of James Whitcomb Riley. Could not and would not the friends of the good poet and of the children, by private gifts, purchase a farm to be owned ana controlled by the state, to be known as the Children’s Relief farm? Many of the poor children of the state of Indiana would enjoy each summer a visit akin to ‘Out to Old Aunt

Mary's.’ ”

Mr. Asher said that if such ft- plan were adopted he would be glad of the honor of making the first contribution to it.

When Mrs. Frona Klnnaman, 908 Harlan street, left a motion picture show near her home Monday night, she found herself In a situation that might well have been taken from the films themselves, according to her testimony in city court today. She appeared as the prosecuting witness against Mrs. Ida Dager, age forty, 2118 Pleasant street, charged with assault and battery-. In Front of Theater. Mrs. Klnnaman, * young married woman. told the judge that she was putting her baby in its carriage in front of the motion picture theater when Mrs. Dager, with her husband, came along. She added that several nights .before Dager had sat on their front porch with her husband and since then she had been speaking to him. “I just glanced up from my baby and recognised Mr. Dager when she grabbed me by the hair and pulled me away from my baby,” testified Mrs. Kinnama'n. Mrs. Dager said that she had just put her hand on the top of Mrs. Kinnaman’s head. "She smiled at my husband and then looked daggers at me,’ Mrs. Dager testified. "And she did it twice." \ . Didn’t Like the Smiles. . "You think she has been smiling at your husband too much, do you?" asked T. M Clifford, acting judge. “Yes, I do," replied Mrs. Dager emphatically. Mrs. Klnnaman asserted she had no reason for smiling except that she was trying to be pleasant After Mrs. Kinnaman’s little brother, who witnessed the im idbnt.hsd testified, the judge fined Mrs. Dager 91 and costs.

[Special to The Indianapolis Nows] LAFAYETTE, Ind., August L - Although the police say they found blood spots on his clothing, and money in his pocket, and blood on a razor which he carried, WiMiam Troschier, a tailor, who was arrested yesterday in Ft. Wayne and brought here early today on a charge of having murdered Charles Harris, steward of the Iroquois Club, in his room above a saloon, denied most emphatically that he had committed the crime. Troschier roomed in the same building with Harris. Just before 5 o’clock yesterday morning he was seen to leave the place and walk hurriedly down the street. A short time later he boarded an interurban car and went to Ft. Wayne. Shaved Off Mustache. Up to yesterday Troschier had worn a heavy black mustache, but he shaved this off yesterday morning. It was known also that he, practically, was penniless; yet, when arrested, he had about J12 in monev in his pocket. William Justice, a motorman on the Ft. Wayne & Northern Indiana traction line, was responsible for Troschier’s arrest. He informed the police that a man answering the description of the fugitive was on his car and Truschier was taken mlc custody at the end of the line. Troschier’s Story. A,ccordin to Troschier’s story, he heard a noise of scuffling in Harris’s room yesterday morning, and said that two tramps were with Harris in the room, and he heard one of them say he would cut Harris’s throat. He says the money he had in his. pocket was some he found in a sachel. He said the reason he shaved off his mustache was that he had burned it with a cigar. When asked about the blood spots, he said he had been suffering with nose bleed. He said the reason he left the city so hurriedly yesterday was that he went to find work, and that he intended returning to Lafayette the same evening. Bloody finger prints were found on a door in Harris’s room, REFUSE TO ACCEPT TERMS. Clay Workers In Brazil District Decline Offer Of Employers. [Special to The Indianapolis News] BRAZIL, Ind., August L—A conference of a committee of the United Brick and Clay Workers’ Union and officials of the American Sewer Pipe Company to consider a wage scale for the Brazil field was held here without result.

[Special to The Indianapolis News] BLOOMINGTON, Ind., August l.-Liq-uor forces in Bloomington are preparing a petition to be filed with the Monroe county commissioners asking that a local option election in this city be called in the next thirty days.

Smart women are now discarding those uncomfortable dress shields and using instead a harmless homemade lotion which is simply marvelous as a corrective of the condition known as excessive perspiration. No more unsightly perspiration stains j Jj for them. No more faded, streaked, discolored shirtwaists. No more odorous wet spots to rot holes in garments, and embarrass the wearer. An ounce of ordinary Cantel, obtainable at any drug store, is dissolved in a teacupful of plain water, and kept covered or bottled for use as required. A little is applied to the armpits every night for awhile until the trouble disappears. Cantel is pleasant and inexpensive to use. Applied to sweaty, odorous feet it quickly overcomes even the most stubborn cases.—Advertisement.
