SEES LOSSES IN MANIPULATION OF INVENTORY (Continued From Page One.) difference between the new price and the price as fixed by your inventory to income?” Mr. Forrest answered only the last question and that in the affirmative. The question of the price of coke also taken np. It was shown that coke charged in the inventory at $5.05 although Mr. Forrest testified that only on rare occasions had coke been sold for so low a price, and that this probably was coke of Inferior quality. Previous testimony had shown that coke recently had sold as high as sll to $11.25 a ton and that it is now selling for $9 a ton. The testimony was, however, that the cost of handling constitutes a loss and that handling causes coke to deteriorate. RAYS NEW GASHOLDER NEEDED. Mr. Forrest testified to the serious need : for another gas-holder. He said that many timea the company has over-anric!-pated the # demand for gas and has made so mcch in the morning that it was necessary to let some escape because of luck of storage space, and that on the afte.rnnon of the same day It woold be necessary to resort to the manufacture of water gas to take care of the Increased demands. Mr. Forrest said anew holder would cost in the neighborhood of $500.000. The testimony also showed that $224,000 was set up as depreciation last year. It showed that this amount was about SIOO.000 In excess of any previous year. Mr. Forrest testified that much of this depreciation came over from 1919 because the ►amount set aside that year was not sufficient. The public service commission decided this morning to continue the hearing on the petition of the Citizens Qas Company for a SO-cent rate to allow a number of citizens to present their views. STREET CAR RATE CASE IP MONDAY MORNING. Asa result of prolonging the gas case the commission ordered the hearing on the petition of the Indianapolis Street Railway Company to be postponed until Monday, morning at 10 o’clock. The street car company's appeal was set for hearing today. The people are more Interested In the quality of gas than they are in the coke situation, Gustavo G. Schmidt, chairman of the gaa committee of the city council, told the members of the public service commission yesterday afternoon. Mr. Schmidt said tne people are willing to pay a fair price for gaa if the quality is good. He pointed out that the fran chise of the company called for gas testing tibC British thermal units and that the average last year was 555 thermal units dally averages dropping sometimes to as low as 515 units. He suggested that the commission, in granting higher rates, make some provision to require the company to supply gas up to standard. During a part of the afternoon Samuel Ashby, corporation counsel, continued thr cross-examination of .1. D. Forrest, manager of the gas compnny. Mr. Forrest testified gas is being sold In Indianapolis at coat and the cost Is expected to increase later in the year. He said more money is needed because of the business situation, which makes it difficult to dispose of by-products, especially coke.

PLANS TO JAM TARIFF MEASURE HIT ON SNAGS (Continued From Page One.) ft r gress will be bent toward giving the farmers all the aid possible, as favored k by the President, but the question ha* been raised by some of them if any emergency tariff measure can have any more than a psychological effect on the serious agricultural situation confronting the producer. The tariff, like the tax question. 1* regarded as certain to engage the attention of Congress for many month* to come, and while Republican leaders refer to the adage that U is a long lane that has no turning, they admit they have not yet been able to see a turn in or an end to the tariff and tax lane ahead of them. Nabbed After Chase Across 2 Countries Special to The Time*. MONON, Ind., March 25.—Word was received here today of the arrest of Clem Allison at Kansas City, following a 10,-QjD-mile chase, on a charge of being a ember of a notorious box car robber gang in northwestern Indiana. Detectives captured Allison in a rooming house. He was identified by Sheriff W YV. Welnhardt of Mouon. who had long been in search of the prisoner. Sheriff Welnhardt declares that Allison fled from Mouon after a SIOO,OOO freight car robbery. He has been trailed through Canada and the United >stales tor the I last six months.

Tax Revision and Economy Plan for Relict Chairman House Committee Suggests Means to Trim Expense. WASHINGTON, March 25—Paying off of the nation’s short time indebtedness as a step in trimming Government expenditures is urged today by Congressman James W. Good, chairman of the House Committee on Appropriations, In a statement issued through the United States Chamber of Commerce, In which he declares that “a continuation of heavy taxes will stifle American industry." Mr. Good believes that a saving can be effected by a system of economy and by national financing of temporary loans. "We do not need revenue derived from the excess profits tax,” he says, "If we will reduce our appropriations.” During the next three years, according to Mr. Good, loans will mature amounting to $7,000,000,000. These obligations should be met, he points out, by refinancing, rather than by levying taxes on American industry. Mr. Good proposes that the customs revenue shall approximate $+00.(00.1 >'K), and as a substitute for the excess profits tax suggests an increase of the tax on spirits, tobacco and passenger automobiles. He also believes that the taxes on freight and passenger fares should be removed because “it will not be difficult to find now miscellaneous sources of taxation that would not be burdensome to take their place.” MRS. STILLMAN S LAWYERS MEET IN CONFERENCE (Continued From Page Out.) dared his belief today that the two principals realize they cannot obtain a divorce owing to the law of equity which demands that a person shall come Into court with “clean hands.” PROSPECT OF OPEN SESSSION. It was his belief that the secret hearings before the special referee might even be dropped and the boy's status determined in open court. A portion of Stillman's estate, amounting to more than $2,000,000, Is involved in this question. Ho said: “Even if the letters of Beauvais to Mrs. Stillman should be proven authentic, it is my belief that they would consist of no evidence against Guy, or, as a matter of argument, such a wildly Impossible thing as Beauvais declaring he is Guy’s father, come to pass, it could not be accepted as proof. “The crux of the case Is this: Stillman must prove beyond any doubt that for a period of three months early in 1918, he could not possibly have seen Mrs. Stillman. During these three months in question evidence will be produced by the defense to show that Mrs. Stillman was in I’ocantico Hills. N. Y., and that Stillman was there also." The defense declared that nothing was known of a rumored separation agreement supposed to have been signed by the Stillmans in 1919. Baby Guy Is with his mother at Lakewood, N. J., entirely unconscious of the tumult and charges and counter-charges in this sensational family row. lie is more Interested In his toys find approaching spring which will enable him to roinp outdoors, than anything else. BANKER DETERMINED IN INHERITANCE FIGHT. Banker Stillman Is said to be determined that the child. Guy (who was bom in November, 1918) shall inherit none of the millions, left by the elder James Stillman. The banker Is said by his friends to be determined to leave nothing undone and to fight to the last legal ditch to win his ends. Mrs. Stillman is fully as determined to protect her name and the birthright of her child. Alongside of her protestations of innocence are the denials of Fred Beauvais, the half-breed Indian guide, that anything wrong had occurred between him and Mrs. Stillman. Beauvais Is still living near Montreal, but a correspondent of a New York newspaper In his dispatches quoted Beauvais as saying he would be In New York next week. Beauvais completely repudiat'-d an alleged interview that was circulated, by a news agency last week attributing to him the statement that he would not come to New York He said he probably would make bis first public statement after his return to Canada from New York. Mrs. Stillman, who was in New York on Thursday to confer with her counsel, has returned to Lakewood.

DEBS HELPED BY TRIP TO WASHINGTON (Continued From Page One.) By others, however, it is felt that Daugherty’s recommendation is far more likely *to le for a commutation of sentence in the near future. Debs still has seven years of his ten-year sentence to serve. The physical appearance of the prisoner made a marked impression on those who saw him. Naturally thin, the three years in Atlanta has enhanced this appearance and added to it the pallor that accompanies confinement. The most marked thing about his appearance, however, was the Indication of extreme nervousness. There are many statements on the Attorney General’s desk from many sources that Debs cannot Itve to serve out his sentence. Whether or not this is true, Dell*' physical condition will figure largely in the final consideration of his case. The conference between Debs and the Attorney General and the arrangements that accompanied It established a precedent In Washington. So far as is known. ; never before has a Federal prisoner been i permitted such a privilege. The journey was planned with the utmost secrecy. Only the prison officials were in on the secret. In Washington only President Harding, Attorney General Daugherty and Chief William J. Flynn of the Department of Justice were aware of Debs’ visit. | Debs came and went away unrecogi nized. He was on a train and an hour | out of Washington before the fact of I his visit became known. SIOO Verdict Given Man Who Asked $3,000 A jury in Superior Court, room 3, today returned a verdict for SIOO in favor of John E. Rehm against the West- ! ern Union Telegraph Company. Rohm j claimed he was knocked down and injured by a motorcycle driven by a Western Un- : ion messenger, Feb. 3, 1920, as the machine came from the Circle into East Market street. He asked $3,000 damages. Gets 1 to 14 Years for Embezzlement Maurice Maney. 625 North Rural street, | and former Rgent of the Cleveland Grain Company, today was sentenced from one to fourteen years at the Indiana State Prison and fined SI,OOO by Judge James A. Collins of the Criminal Court on a charge of embezzling SII,OOO from the Cleveland Grain Company. George L. Powers was fined $25 and cast* on a charge of vehicle taking.

Federal prohibition agents believe they are well on the way toward breaking up a gang of whisky sellers that has been the source of considerable annoyance to the department.

Dougherty and his son were found leaving the still, but they dented any knowledge of it. They were placed In Jail at Terre Iluute.

Mrs. Fanny O’Malley wife of Edwin O'Malley of West Ohio street, Indianapolis. was placed on the stand for the defense and testified that Charles Jones came to her home on the night of Oct. 22, 1920: that he seamed excited, and that she saw he had two rovnlvvrs, one n .45raliber of blue steel while the other was a nickel plated smaller gun. She said she heard him tell her husband that a man hud been shot with a .45 and that he wanted to get rirl of his and advised her husband to get rid of the one he owned.

ItS BERNAUER IS DRUG ADDICT. Ensley, formerly a resident of Shelhvvtlle, testified for the defense that he had frequently seen Bern aner taking drugs which he described as small, white [dlls, although he did not know the kind. Ensley said he personally had never sold any "dope." lie stated he had operated an assignation house at the Ohio street address until last Jan. 15, when he had sold the place to Lon Plercefield, but that he still resides then*. When asked how many times he had been arrested Ensley answered that counting atl the times it would probably be about fifty or sixty times. The third witness for the defense was Iyeslle Scott of Chicago, who was re leased from the Marlon County Jail last Saturday, where lie had been held on a charge of obtaining money tindi r false pretenses. Scott sab] he was placed in the jail under the name of “E. R Harris" and that he was cell boss of the “bum row,” while Carl Bernnuer was confined there. He said that he saw Bernauer using drugs—two and three times a day and that the defendant obtained the article from Herman Shapiro and two other prisoners, who were under Federal indictments. Mr. Seott said the drugs had been brought Into the jaif by the prisoners and stated that Shapiro had given Bemauer the drug during the month of December; on cross-examina-tion the State contended that Shapiro was not a prisoner at the Jail until Feb. 5, 1921. BERNAUER'S FATHER IS WITNESS. Charles A. Rernauer, father of the defendant, who has been permitted to re main at the side if his son, during the procedure of the trial, was the closing witness of the day. He told of the visit made by him with Lieutenants Manning and Reynolds, to the Jail on Jan. 31, 1921 at whioh time he said his son told of hts aetlous on the night of Oct. 22. 1921. where he "was and what he had done, and said the defendant ended with telling him that he was giving the absolute truth.

On the morning of Jan. 31, 1921, he said that Carl was not under the Influence of drugs, but that he had visited him at the Jail when he knew he had been using the drug. Mr. Ber nauer has been a member of the Indian apolis police force for over twenty-three years. He testified that he did not spend much time at home and therefore could not say where bis son was staying most of the time. REPEATS DYING WORDS OF VICTIM. Following tlie action of the court in overruling the motion of the defense to prevent the submission as evidence of a dying statement said to have been given by Samuel Eaids to Motor Policeman Fred H. Drlnkut, shortly before his death, Mr. Drlnkut told of the words spoken by Eaids. He said he accompanied Sergt. Louis Johnson on the emergency squad which answered the call, following the shooting of Eaids. That when he entered the store he found Eaids lying in the center of the floor and realized he was mortally wounded. He called for the ambulance and while.waiting for Its arrival said Eaids told him that a heavy set man. about 5 feet 6 in> hps tall, had entered the store and ordered him to hold up liis hands.

Meridian Heights tracks now in FortyNinth street and relay ‘them in Pennsylvania street from Forty-Ninth to Fifty-Second street, is demanded in a resolution adopted at a mass meeting of Interested citizens in a tent at Forty Ninth street and Central avenue, last night. The meeting was arranged as a protest against the board of works order and to give Samuel Lewis Shank an opportunity to hxpress his views on the way the Meridian Heights residents have been treated by the city administration. The resolution udopted was as follow's ; "Believing that the will of the majority of the people in matters In which they are concerned shotfll be respected by the officials, who are (Sr. servants of the people, and believing that the city government of Indianapolis Is still a government of the people, by the people and for the people: therefore, be it resolved by us, the citizens here assembled and residing along and near the Meridian Heights street car line, operating on Forty-Ninth street between Pennsylvania sliest and College avenue, and the territory contiguous thereto, that the order of the hoard of public works of the city of Indianapolis relative to the discontinuance of said car line, which is, we believe, an important connecting line aud in a manner a crosstown line, Is Inimical to the welfare of such citizens and contrary to the will of such citizens. Be It further resolved, that It Is the sense of this meeting that such order made by said board of public works be rescinded. Eighty four citizens signed the resolution. More than one hundred persons attended the meeting, despite the stormy weather and the fact that they had to stand up throughout. Mr. Shank compared the cost of the administration of city government wh“n he was mayor with what the administration of Mayor Charles W. Jewett will cost, showing the latter to be double. "Mr. Jewett and other supporters of Mr. Thomas C. Howe, former president of Butler College, for mayor, have referred to me as the ’undesirable candidate.’ ” said Mr. Shank. “Well, I have the satisfaction of knowing that I have not the finger of accusation that I won my office through crooked political methods pointed at me as has Mr. Jewett." William l. Bailey, attorney, was chairman of the meeting. He told of the rough treatment the Meridian Heights delegation got when It went before the Jewett board of works to protest against the track removal order recently. An organization to boost Walter W. Wise for the Republican nomination for councilman from the Fourth district will be formed at a meeting at the Harrison Club, Clifton and Udell streets, at S o’clock tonight.

GIPSY FLAYS CARD PLAYERS ‘IN GOD’S NAME’ (Continued From rage One.) you ? How can you live meanly after w'hat took place on Calvary?” When the time was up for the meeting to close, the evangelist had not ended his sermon. “I know the time la up, but shall I stop?” he asked. "No,” was the reply shouted. “That’s right,” replied the evangelist. “Jesus did not count the time when He hung on the cross.” The evangelist told of the remarks of the Jews, while Christ hung on the cross. “ ‘You saved others, but you could not save yourself.’ They should have changed that word ‘couldn’t’ to ‘wouldn’t,’ for Jesus would not save Himself. He was here to save others.” It wag announced prior to the opening of the meeting that through the kindness oj the management of Keith’s Theater the noon meetings would continue until the closing of the r.evlval meetings. "BEAUTIFUL GARMENTS,” A STIRRING THEME. Gipsy Smith poised between two themes at the Tabernacle last night, asked the audience which It would have, received Its choice and then soared into one of the most beautiful discourses Indianapolis has ever heard. It was as if the evangelist were clothed with the power and the poetry of the writers of the psalms. "Two themes are struggling in my mind for expression tonight,” said he “One is a talk about the Holy Spirit and the other is about the ‘beautiful garments' that the prophet talks of. I wonder which you’d like?" said Gipsy. "The beautiful garments,” came the answer. He responded in a manner to bring hundreds of converts to put on the "beautiful garmeuts of the power, the glory, the strength, the winsomeness, the attractiveness, the purity of the Lord.” TELLS “RELIGIOUS TRAMPS” TO CHANGE. Those who are church-goers but not true Christians he urged not to dress as religious tramps any longer, but to put aaside their rags and step forth in “the royal robes of Christ, the royal ro+>e i He wants all his followers to wear, the | royal robes they cannot help but wear i when they really surrender their lives | to Him.” | Ail of Gipsy Smith's sermons in Indl- ! anapolis have been rich in imagery and | beautiful in thought and language, but ] It was apparent from the start of last night’s service that he was in a particularly exalted mood and that something good might be expected. This became morn evident a* lie told how he had not had five minutes to himself all day long. "I have been preaching to people over the telephone ever since before I had my breakfast this morning," he said, and added, with a smile, “I haven't had my dinner yet and I don't even know it. All day long It has been glorious.” He asked which of the two themes the audience would like to hear discussed. I Mixed with the answers of "beautiful I garments," coming from all corners of ' the tabernacle, there came one piping response: "Good duds.” GIPSY STICKLER FOR GOOD ENGLISH. [ "I don't quite make out your quaint American expressions.” the evangelist, who is an Englishman, remarked. "I like good English—the language that Milton, the language that Bunyan dreamed, the language that Shakespeare dramatized, the language Wesley anil Whit field preached and the language that Webster thundered. Good old English' That's a glorious language when she's spoken! The best In the world 1” The crowd cheered. The text of the sermon on "Beautiful Garments'' was taken from Isaiah 52. particularly from the lines whirj read: "Awake, awake, and put on thy beautiful garments. O Jerusalem." He explain'd that God spoke these words to Israel after they had appealed to Him to deliver them from their bondage "The arm of the Lord Is not shortened that it can not save. The ear of the Lord is not covered that it cannot hear.” said God to Israel. Gipsy related. BANISH HANDICAPS; BE STRONG AS MOUNTAIN'. "Shake yourself Shake yourself." galil the evangelist. "Get rid of the things that handicap. Stand up aud throw them off. "It U God's will that people should he strong In the power of His might, lie doesn't want us to he sh kl.v. lie wants us to he robust, as fresh as the morning, as strong as the mountain. He doesn't want us to go through the world conquered at every turn by sonic habit. lie wants us to be more than conquerors ourselves through the blood of the lamb. ‘‘How is It that you are weak that every temptation that comes a'ong floors you? It is because you do not appreciate the niagnltlcance and the power and the strength of God. All the omnipotence of the skies belongs to you and but waits for our appropriation. The river of God is full of water and the Church of God never ought to be weak. The people of God never ought to be weak.” It Is sin that weakens, sin and unbelief. unfaithfulness and wrongdoing that undermine the strength, the evangelist declared. "LORD OFFERS US STRENGTH OF ARMY.** “We could be strong as an army, terrible as an army, if we would only take this strength which (he Lord offers. The Devil trembles when lie sees th” weakest saint upon his knees. But,” and the speaker held up a warning hand. "He must be a saint.” “God wants you to be always ready—to have every equipment for service—nothing lacking. Oh, to put on the whole armor, the whole armor! And I tell you that when God gets his way with those of us who profess to love Him we shall be strong.” He spoke of the early Christians, relating that every time they prayed something happened. “Oh. what giants they must have been,” he said. "I*ll tell you why they were. They believed In Ihese things. They sought and obtained them and their faces shone like the sun and their words flamed with a power divine. We need that today. Ifo you know that all over this city men and women are

under conviction of sin? Do you know that people are talking religion in the stores, in the banks, in the offices, in the factories, everywhere?” SEES EFFECT OF TABERNACLE SERMONS. He told of going Into the store of a rich man this morning and of being told j that the (business men of Indianapolis are behind the tabernacle meetings, that S they are realizing what an uplift is being given to the moral life of the community. Gipsy began to talk directly about the ‘‘beautiful garments.” which he likened to the full equipment every Christian reeds if he is to do the Lord's work well. “If a soul beside you tonight turned to you and said: ‘Tell me what I'm to do to be saved,’ what would you do? I'll venture that if 1 came down and asked you to tell me where the baseball park is you'd be able to tell me with your eyes shut. Yes! That’s because you’ve been there. And If you’d been to the Cross you'd know the way there. No one who has been to the Cross ever forgets what it is like. "God wants you to be strong and ready and thoroughly equipped for service. He wants you also to be beautiful, attractive, winsome. Put on thy beautiful garments. “Why is it that you Christian people are dre aed so poorly—l mean spiritually?” he asked abruptly. “Why are you dressed so poorly. Instead of walking around In the royal robes you go around like tramps. How Is it that the folks who live with you don’t know you are a Christian unless y*u tail than so. You 1

Home Run Drives by Gipsy Smith “All the omnipotence of the skies belongs to you and me and waits but for our appropriation.” "The river of God is full of water anil the church of God and the people of God ought never to bo weak.” "It Is secret) sin that closes onr mouths so that we can not bear witness.” “The devil trembles when he sees the weakest saint upon hlg knees." “If you are a true Christian you will not have to say so: you’ll show It in your face and in your walk.” “If your religion is not making you sweet to iiTe with there’s sme thing wrong with you, not with the religion.” “Lots of you think you've got religion when you’ve only licked the spoon.” “A sparrow is so precious to Him that lie goes to the funeral of every one.” “He gets His way in nature and makes it beautiful. How is it that He doesn’t get His way in you?” “God’s wardrobes are full. You need not be shabby.” “The greatest sermon ever preached was the sermon of a Godly, Christlike life.” "The world hates eant and humbug. Y'ou never knew a butterfly to light on a painted picture nor a bee to light upon an artificial flower. Y'ou can’t deceive a butterfly nor a bee and you can’t deceive the world. It knows a Christian.”

don’t wear your beautiful garments. If you were really a Christian you wouldn’t have to tell any one so. You’d show it In your face, without uttering a word. You'd show it in your very walk. "If your religion isn’t making you sweet to live with there’s something wrong with you, not the religion. You aren’t getting all the benefit of it. Lots of you think you’ve got religion when you’ve only licked the spoon.” Then came one ' t Gipsy's most beauti- ; tul passages. j “When God thinks a rose, you’ve got a rose. When Cod thinks a pansy, you've got a pansy. Because God thinks a rose and a pansy you Just can’t have anything else. When God thinks an oak, 1 you've got an oak. When He thinks a j mountain there is a mountain. When He thinks a grain of sand, there It is and winn he thinks a sparrow—and a spar- ! row is so precious to Him that he goes . to the funeral of every one—there is a sparrow. lie thinks a dew drop and i there Is a dew drop a crystal palace In which the angels shall dwell. "HAVE YOURSELF, THEN ArAY FOR OTHERS.” "List< n,” and his voice rang out over the multitude, "God gets his way with nature. llow Is it that He doesn't get hta way with you and me t "He made us to be beautiful as a lily. How is it that the people who live with j you say, ‘Well, if that’s religion, I don’t I want it?’ Lots of people are kept out of i church by the inconsistencies —we inside iof it. It's no use to pray to the Lord ! to save your wife, your son, your aunt until you let Him save you. j "But on your beautiful garments. Let | Jesus save you from ugliness. Jesus j didn't fly into tempers. Jesus didn't say j cutting things. You are un-Christian when you say them. God’s wardrobes :ir full you needn’t be shabby and the ! beantitul garments will fit." TELLS STORY OF HILLY BRAY'. lie told of Billy Bray, a miner of Cornwall. England, who divided his time between cool digging and preaching. Billy’s preaching coat got terribly shabby and a widow if generous soul noticing it told i him she would like to give him some of 1 the clothes her husband had left behind ; but was not sure they would fit. “‘Did the Lord fell you to give them to me?' asked Billy Bray. “ ‘l'm sure He did.' answered the i widow “ ’Then they'll fit all right, for He knows my measure exactly.’ said the miner. “When the Lord tells you to put on your heavenly garments you' heed Him. for He's got some that will fit you exj actly." said Gipsy. * j He told of a husband who eagerly swallojved down a fine cake his toil- • worn wife had made for him and started to arise from the table without a word of gratitude. “ Harry, was the cake all right?' she asked. “ ‘Yough,’ snarled the husband. "’Then why didn't yon say so?’ the heart broken wife asked. " Tda told you if there'd been anything wrong with it,' snapped the husband. •H ISN'T THAT JUST t LIKE A M \X ?" | “Wasn't that just like a man?” in- ; qnired Gipsy, and hundreds of women ' clapped their hands. He led up to the invitation that was to bring hundreds to Christ with a story about a little boy who was taken to an orphanage la London after his widowed mother had died. The mother had eked out bread for the boy and herself with her needle, “and then the thread snapped." The superintendent had had the hoy stripped of his ragged clothing preparatory to giving him a bath and anew, clean uniform and v.as making out a record slip when he noticed the boy go to (lie pile of old clothing, pick up his tap and carefully start ripping the lining out. “‘Why do you do that?" asked the superin tendent. “ ‘The boy began to sob as he cried and managed to explain that his mother had made that cap and that having no cloth with which to make a lining had cut some from the dress she was wearing so that his little hend might be warm.’ " DRIVES MORAL HOME HARD. Gipsy drove the moral home hard. "Y'ou may have more than the shreds of your mother's garment. You may have (he selfsame robe that clothed your mother. Y'ou may wear the same robes of beauty and power and salvation that God put around your mother if you've only sense to take it.” Delegations from Pendleton, Danville and the L. S. Ayres & Cos. were present. The Rev. E. H. Kistler, of the Fourth Presbyterian Church gave the invocation Attendance was not as large as on most nights but Gipsy Smith declared it to be equal in quality. Services today will be held at Keith’s Theater from 11:50 to 1 o'clock p. m., and in the tabernacle from 1 to 3 and 7:30 to 9 -30 p. in. Tonight is Young People's night. The afternoon services will be in commemoration of Good Friday, seven Indianapolis pastors being scheduled to speak on the “Seven Sayings From the Cross.” The evangelist also will Rpeak this afternoon. A special service next Tuesday evening for adult Sunoav school classes was announced. Driver, Accused of Intoxication, Fined Wayne Cummings, giving Hotel Lincoln as his address, was fined $lO and costs on a charge of driving a motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor by Judge Walter Pritchard in city court today. Charges of vehicle taking against him were dismissed by Judge Pritchard. Cummings was arrested several days ago -following an accident at Capitol avenue and Fourteenth street when he collided with a heavy Army truck. Police say the charge of vehicle taking was placed against Cummings when Wilbur Matlock, driver for the Blue Taxicab Company, said after about a, ten-hour drive with Cummings he left the cab for a few minutes and in his absenemhis passenger! drove away with it *
