ESCAPES FARM; COPS GET HIM Win Geld James’ Experiences in Law Violations Cover Long Period. “It's cold turkey to get away from fte penal farm, but l was a fool for Irinking whisky after coming to Indian ipolis." declared Winfred .lames. 45. as le aat In a cllroom In police headquar (era today. "1 got a double cross on ty appeal bond on my second blind tiger case, and I paid $75 for the sign lag of that bond. They kept me thirtytwo days on the penal farm when my time was only thirty days.” James, three times convicted of operat Inga blind tiger, escaped Sunday night from the Indiana State Farm and came to Indianapolis. He was arrested at the D'Brien Hotel, 121*4 North Alabama street last night by Motor Police Hudson and Landers. When James saw the police enter the lobby he ran into the wash toom, but they were too close on him aud he n as arrested Bad luck has followed James since April. 101S he declares. The records show that on April 4, 11*18, James was tonvicted in city court of operating a blind tiger and Special Judge Fred Bonifield filled him *SO and costs and sentenced him to serve thirty days on the Indiana State Farm. The case was appealed to Criminal Court. William H. Wulle signed the appeal bond. The appeal was withdrawn later and the sentence served. James was at that time proprietor of a restaurant on Massachusetts avenue, and whisky and automobile tires were found in his place. These tires, it is said, were some that had been stolen from freight cars In the Big Four Kailroad yards in Brighlwood. James said he served more than fourteen of the eighteen months' sentence in the Federal Prison in Atlanta after being convicted of receiving stolen goods from an interstate shipment. That sejitence. he said, resulted from the tires belug found at his restaurant. Last fall Sergt. Ed Helm called a cumber by telephone and said "send me two dressed chickens to 25 North Noble Street.'' The “chickens" arrived and Sergeant Helm arrested James, who drove tip In an automobile in which was found two bottles of whisky. James was found guilty of operating a blind tiger and lined SIOO and costs and sentenced him to serve thirty days on the Indiana State Farm. The case was appealed and Fred I.uez signed the appeal bond. However, •n Jan. 3. this year, the appeal was Withdrawn after James had been con rioted of operating a blind tiger a few flays before that date. Sergeant Deeter arrested .Tames on the eharge of operating a blind tiger while the appeal was pending, after the sergeant and a squad of police raided James' house on Christian street and captured thirty gallons of “white mule" whisky. On that charge on Oec. 30 Judge Walter Pritchard found James guilty and fined him S2OO and costs and sentenced him to serve ISO days on the Indiana Btate Farm, fixing his appeal bond at |1,5f0. The case was appealed arid the appeal bond was signed by Fred Luez and John W. Corydon. The case was Bet for trial Monday in Criminal Court The records shows that the fines on the two recent blind tiger convictions had never been paid. Records of Criminal Court show that James' case was set for trial Monday, but was continued because the defendant was at the Indiana State Farm.

G. Hog Did Not See His Shadow Till Aiternoon Now Actions Depend Upon What School of Thought You Follow. There are two s<h<>ols of thought in -grouudhogology.” according to J. H Armlngtun. meteorologist at the L'nlte.l States Weather Bureau In Indianapolis One school sets forth the theory that If Mr. Groundhog emerges pn the morn lng of Feb. 2 and sees his shadow n ducks right back into his nest and stays there for six weeks. Not seeing his ''shadow at the first peep, he comes all the way out, stretches himseif and then proceeds to break hi* winter fast, no matter if the sun breaks through th> very next minute. The other school adherents declare that Mr. Groundhog is shy ail day Feb. 2. That is, he may not see bis shadow when he firsts steps out and may strut about, proud in the consciousness that he has brought spring to a winter-weary world, when all of a sudden, because of a fickle and deceitful sun, he sees his shadow right there beside him —then the stuff's all off! He knows he's made a mistake and Immediately goes back to hibernate until well along In March. Mr. Groundhog peered out early and there was no shadow to greet him. He came out, looked around to make certain that his eyes had not deceived him and then stayed out, according to tradition, but along In the fniddle of the afternoon the sun broke through the gloom. So, all ye who follow the dictates of Mr. Groundhog may govern yourselves according to doctrines of the school In which you are enrolled.

ST. PAUL. Alien., Feb. 2.—A fortune made writing scenarios has melted in five short months and Arthur S. Foster is back at his post, stoking boilers in a paper plant. His wife, whose mysterious affluence baffled Foster, has disappeared, leaving him with three small children to care for. He never knew how much or how little she had, Foster said, but in . ve short months of delirious spending she bought two of the finest motor cars marketed, a farm, two homes and luxuries galore. All are gone. Foster does not care if she never returns. he said. She left him bankrupt—and firing a boiler. Bankrupty records show that Foster was faced with bills totaling $1,053 worth of clothes he never knew she bought or wore.

BLAMES DIRTY COURTHOUSE ON SPOILS SYSTEM (Continued From Page One.) ing dirty and insanitary conditions at tae courthouse. The report was no sooner read at tne meeting of the county council than Councilman Albert TANARUS, Newby rushed to the rescue of Benjamin S. Peirce, custodian of the courthouse. Mr. Newby stated that he "suddenly appeared" at *t;:e. courthouse several days ago and made an investigation of conditions and claimed he was surprised at the good condition, considering the age of the building, in the face of the Tracy report Newby contended that Custodian Peirce was doing the best he could. The councilmen took a few seconds in which to pass a re-olution thanking Mr. Tracy for his investigation of Courthouse conditions. Mr. Tracy stated in his report that there are 91,030 feet of office space In tae courthouse and one-third of this amount is corridor space. Ilp found that the fourth floor is used only a little by the public, as most of the records are kept there.

COSTS MORE THAN IN OFFICE BUILDINGS. Janitor service cost only 112.353.1S for 101'.*. while janitor service for 1920 prob ably will reach $15,300, which is a part of a total courthouse employes' expenditure of $21,540 for service and supplies. Mr. Tracy stated in his report: Figuring the cost of cleaning per square foot of office sp ice in order to msike a comparison with the cleaning <'ost ol office buildings, we Bad ti at, including the fourth floor, the cost for l'-'tV* is 14 cents per sjuare foot and for 1020 17 cents per squaia foot; not Including the tourth floor because :t *s so rarely used, the cost for 1010 is 17 cents per square foot aud for 1020 20 cents. The present i ost of cleaning a square foot of office space in class A office buildings is about 13 cents It has been as io\v as 'J cents, but in recent years it has be**n going higher. With the present prospe t of luoor costs going down, it is not likely that the cost of cleaning office buildings will go higher. Considering. therefore, the character of the county courthouse as a building and taking into consideration the fact that most of the rooms are large as compared to the rooms ia office buildings, the cost of cleaning seems to be higher than it ought to he. This investigation came about largely because frequent complaints have b-en made in regard to the janitor service. It is true that considerable improvement has been made in the last .few months, but there is still great room for improvement. Much better results should be obtained from the amount of money being spent. Without making odious comparisons with other buildings, it might be interesting to point out that the city hall is kept in quite a clean condition at a cost of 18 cen s per square foot of office space. The city hall, of course, is a comparatively modern building. In discussing the janitor fo:ce at the courthouse -Mr. Tracy reported as follows : The jam tor force consists of twelve colored men and three coloied women. They are employed by the county commissioners and not by the custodian, who h-s supervision over them. They frequently deal with the county commisBionerß directly instead of through the custodian, who is their superior. This is not a good practice. The man who is to direct these junitois should have more to do with their hiring ami should have tiie responsibility of maintaining discipline among them. Some of the Janitors are advanced in and are capable consequently of only a degree of efficiency. Various rooms are assigned to the janitors to be cleaned Three divide the basement between them. Four take care of the first floor, turee to the second, three to the third aud one to the fourth floor. They are paid a salary of SBS a month. Most of them report at 5 a. m.

/ The Truth About Indianapolis RAILROADS ’ ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-EIGHT passenger trains on the seventeen divisions comprising the five railroad systems enter in and depart from Indianapolis daily. During heavy traveling periods, as high as 24.000 passengers enter, depart and pass through this city in one day. Freight trains on these seventeen divisions pull 11,000 cars, carrying about 550,000 tons of Indianapolis freight daily. Five times as many passengers can be handled in the new $9,200,000 Union Station and Track Elevation under construction as could have been accommodated in the old structure. This means that Indianapolis will be a city of 1,000,000 population before the capacity of the new station will be reached. Forty trains can be in the station at one time. The elevated tracks have done as much to make Indianapolis a modern city as any one improvement in the last decade. Fletcher American National Bank of INDIANAPOLIS Capital and Surplus, *3,000,000

He never knew whether she actually wrote a scenario, but he knows she had large sums of money last May and June. It dwindled rapidly, until last October be was forced to return to the coal pile. Nov. 27, 1920, she said she was going to a butcher shop. She did not returu and two days later tie received a letter, postmarked St. I‘aul, in which she said she was going away and he would not see her for a long time. “We were sitting in the Cosey Theater last May," said Foster, "when the name, 'Eva II Foster,' (lashed on the screen.

A few days later she came into the gnr-

and work until 2 p. m. On account of the nature of the business in certain offices a few of the janitors work from 5 to 9 a. m. aud from 4 to 8 p. m. The custodian states that these Janitors do other things than cleaning, such as running' errands and putting away records aud books in various offices, it would seem that these Janitors should not perform any other service than that for which they are hired, in view of the numerous complaints that have been made as to the inadequacy of their service in the past. Whenever they are not busy doing the routine work they might be giving their attention to the various public documents used by the citizens and members of the bar so that these documents and records might be as free as possible from dirt and dust. The condition of these documents is one of the greatest sources of complaint and unquestionably could be corrected KKqiTMTION BVSTEM Ih LOOSE. The custodian, who is paid a salary of SI,BOO a year, lias charge of the janitor service us well as the maintenance of the building. He has held this position for three years. Needless to say, like most of publle officials, he had no previous training for tiie work. Among other things, he purchases the materials aud supplies used in connection with maintaining the building. ills requisi tions are supposed to be approved by the county commissioners, but this re qulreuient is not regularly complied with it is obvious that a centralized system of purchasing would be a great aUvari tage to the county and would cut down tremendously the number of requisitions. The custodian fully realizes many of the weaknesses of the preseut s> tern and seems very anxious to put his work on a sounder aud more business like basis, it it meets with the approval of tiie county commissioners it will be possible to arrange for a griup of building man agers to meet with the custodian, go over his problems with him and suggest better methods. It is likeiy that the county might save considerable money if they should se cure a well trained and broadly ex. ri enced man, who has had experience In operating aud maintaining buildings. Ihe county at the present time is not paying sufficient salary to secure such a man. lhe report also found that the basement of the courthouse is commonly used as a loafing p.ace, especially in the winter months. The report suggested that the cooperation of the police he used to prevent congregating in the basement. The problem of comfort station* was discussed. The county eomuii-siouera : have already arranged for a restroom for women at the courthouse.
