THE INCREASED NUMBER of drunks taken in over the week-end indicates that Memorial day will not be dry in Indianapolis! PERHAPS the reason Japan is so anxious to secure Yap is that they have discovered that by turning it around they can make it p-a-Y. A CINCINNATI store advertises a "display of lingerie to interest the bride-elect." That is not the reason for displays in Indianapolis! THOSE OFFICIALS at La Porte who resigned because they were “tired of criticism and friction" are evidently of a totally different strain than our Marion County officeholders. BIG CHIEF Hendricks’ warriors have been so successful on their trip that we'll have to repeat that big opening day powpow when they pitch their wigwams at Washington park next Saturday. WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST is out with a signed editorial in his papers endorsing all that Colonel Hailey told the British anent the league. At last reports one G. C. Bergdoll felt the same way about it — 4 AN EASTERN sports writer, in enumerating the many fine, manly qualities of Jack Dempsey, calls his readers’ attention to the fact that Jack did not go away and leave his poor old mother all alone during the war. ACCORDING to expense statements filed, Howe’s votes cost a dollar each, while Shank got his for fifty cents apiece. For a “business man,” the professor show'ed scant knowledge of the art of getting his money’s worth. A BILL in the Illinois Legislature proposes to limit a physician’s charge for a whisky prescription to one dollar. The current rate in the Sucker State is reported to be five bucks. A bill to reduce the bootlegger’s charge, as a step toward normalcy, is now in order. Lemaux* s Mistake Friends of Irving Lemaux, chairman of the Republican city committee, will regret that he has listened to the importuning of political self-seekers to the extent of reversing his originally expressed intention of resigning from the chairmanship at the request of Samuel Lewis Shank, the Republican nominee for mayor. Before Mr. Shank was nominated. Mr. Lemaux expressed himself earnestly as being opposed to the nomination of Shank and declared that in event Shank won the nomination he would either resign the chairmanship or retain it, in accordance with Mr. Shank’s desires. This expression of sentiment was voluntarily made by Mr. Lemaux to a representative of the Indiana Daily Times who was in no way interested in the Republican organization and there can be no doubt that it expressed Mr. Lemaux’s sentiments at the time it was made. Since then, Mr. Shank has called on Mr. Lemaux to resign and the chairman has publicly refused to do so. We think he tas listened to and finally acted against, his better Judgment * :. . 1 Mr. Lemaux has not only forfeited respect for his word and revealed tiimself as too weak to withstand the pressure brought to bear upon him by the disgrunted Republican machine bospea but he has also laid himself to grave suspicions of disloyalty to his party for the remainder of the time he spends in the chairmanship. As chairman of the national party, Mr. Will Hays laid down the dictum that it w'as the business of the organization to “elect, not select candidates.” Painful as it may be to certain Republican bosses who “could not concieve of such a thing,” Samuel Lewis Shank is the Republican party’s candidate for mayor. It is therefore the business of Mr. Lemaux to elect him mayor, if possible, and by his own words, Mr. Lemaux has made it apparent that Shank’s call for his resignation on the grounds of insincerity in his support was well founded. Who occupies the Republican chairmanship during the city campaign is a matter of proper concern only for Republicans of course but Democrats may be pardoned if they turn from their own troubles with an unfit chairman long enough to chuckle over the predicament of the Republicans. It would appear that the city campaign is not, after all, to be conducted on such a high plane of political purity as might have been expected. The titular head of the Republican organization has taken his stand against the Republican nominee and the titular head of the Democratic organization has created such distrust in the party ranks that plans have been perfected to guard against repeated treachery. These two things may or may not have been the subject of the conference between Mr. Meeker and Mr. Lemaux. held recently at the office of the latter. Where the Gamblers Stood! The publication, exclusively, in the Times yesterday or the expenditures of the campaign for Mr. Thomas C. Howe will no doubt be a revelation to the business men who contributed to the fund on the theory that they were supporting a movement for a “better Indianapolis.” It discloses that their money was deftly and swiftly transferred to bootleggers, gamblers and numerous other law violators of widespread disrepute. These men were hired ostensibly for “organization work” the particulars of which are not disclosed in the report. Among them are such well-known characters as Ran Butler, negro, who achieved notoriety as the proprietor of one of Indianapolis’ worst hell holes in the days when saloons were never closed and Ran found it desirable to go about his place with a revolver hanging in plain sight on his hip; Louis Brown, a notorious gambler of more recent prominence in city court; Louis Laitner, Jr., who just recently femerged from a police court session; William Hindel, the race horse pool concessionaire; Charles, alias “Sox” Barnett, handbook operator and poolroom tout; Joe Levy, his side partner; William Lancaster, negro craps game operator, and other such well-known characters. 1 It has become quiet popular recently for those poor losers of the Republican primary to attribute their defeat to the influence of the “gambling fraternity” of Indianapolis. / But their own report of expenditures discloses that the gamblers of Indianapolis who have been active in the last four years were not only working for Mr. Howe but were being paid therefor with money collected from the business men “to help good government.” The Poppy! It is announced that the poppy will be worn on Memorial day in memory of those who gave their life in the Nation's wars. Flanders poppies will show the last possible act of love for those who lie in Victory Fields. The poppies which are worn will all be of paper or silk. They are sent to America from France where they are made by orphans ar.d widow's living on or near the great battlefields of the recent war. The little red flowers are found in abundance there—covered many a grave when no tender hands could reach out to perform any devotion. All the money that arises from the sale of the silk popples will go towards the support of the French orphans and all the service of the Americans in placing them on sale is voluntary. It seems that the Nation is growing more and more to “say it with flowers” for the wearing of the carnation on Mother's day has Just passed and the poppy will give wrny to Father's day in June. A bouquet sent to the living is always in order and fortunately this is being recognized as true The softening of the hearts of the Nation Is seen in the adaption of the poppy as a national memorial flower. Its presence will signify a respect for those who fought and died for the Nation, no matter wheieLe battles otcu ped. For every battle of the Nation l£ada to the ideals which are es tabiiihed today in the hearts oAAmericans. \

“WOMKX MEN LOVE” ON VIEW AT ALHAMBRA. “Women M ’ Love” a picture dealing with domesti'- Ufa In high social circles, and starring William Desmond, is on view now at the Alhambra for the last half of the week. The story was written by Charles T. and Frank Dazey. The cast supporting Mr. Demond include* Marguerite Marsh, Evan Burroughs Fontaine, Martha Mansfield and Denton Vane. The star appears as David Hunter, a suoeessful architect whose life Is completely wrapped up In his work, his home and his wife. The latter Is a shallow, pleasure seeking woman who amuses herself in a passing infatuation with a wealtliy society man. He seeks to force a separation of the husband and wife and Is aided in this by a young woman who is In love with Hunter, but whose affections he has spurned. The breach between the Hunters widens when the wife confesses that she has lost a huge sum of money playing cards^_ On her promise to refrain from gambling, her husband gives her a sum sufficient to cover her debts, and she Is intrigued Into another game by the scheming pair with disastrous results. Things go from bad to worse with the divorce court looming in the offing, when Mrs Hunters elder sister ltuth, through a heroic act of self sacrifice, succeeds in opening her sister's eyes to the folly of her course and teaching her a much needed lesson. The program also presents Kosec-e (Fatty) Arbuckle in “The Beil Boy,” the Fox ness weekly and The Sherwoods and their singing orchea*ra. ' . -I- -!- -INEW BILL ON VIEW AT B. F. KEITH S TOBAT.

THURSDAY. “I snppose you will be Interested to know, Mary.” observed Henry as Mrs. Hooper wheeled the hot breakfast dishes from the kitchen to the ditlng room on the new tea-wagon, '‘that George Brown has sold his lot hext door and bought a small piece of land out in the country a couple of miles. He plans to start building a house with the difference between what he sold the lot h-*e for and the purchase price of the land, and with the aid of a building and loan association he expects to get started again with his own home.” The Browns were the family whose home next door to the Hoopers had burned to the ground one night, and as they had no insurance either on their house nor their furniture, their setback in the world had been a matter of great concern to Mrs. Hooper. “I am delighted at that news," exclaimed Mrs. Hooper, “and Mrs. Brown is so capable and economical that I’m sure it will not .be long before she will have the beginnings of a home again. How nice of them not to try to struggle along here in 5 rented house Just for the sake of keeping up their old ties In the community—even though its advantages are obvious both for Mrs. Brown and the children over what they can possibly have so fa" in the country.” “I think Brown has learned his lesson through this piece of adversity,” bom-' mented Henery Hooper. ‘‘He asked me to tell him Just how we managed to keep Insurance premiums paid on my salary and live as well as we did.” “I’m sure Mrs. Brown Is Insisting on that,” said Mrs. Hooper, “because she realizes more than he does how many of her household necessities she could have replaced easily if there had been any Insurance on their furniture. Now she has scarcely a change of bed linen and it Is so hard to do anything, Just buying a few things from week to week.” “You are right about Mrs. Brown having her way about things. She never had anything to say before,” laughed Henry. “Brown told me that she had all the facts and figures about Insurance from that man's talk.at the Woman’s Club, and that he believed you women were really tieginning to r have some practical ideas abo.;t things.”

"Beginning!"—sniffed Mrs. Hooper. “We always did have them, hut we are only now being listened to by you pien when we talk about things that affect our homes and our ctflldreu.” “Well, anyhow,” resumed Henry, refusing is he generally did to be drawn into an argument. "Brown has determined on carrying an Insurance, not only on his house and furniture, but on his life ns well ns soon as he gets started again. He has accepted Mrs. Brown's figures as obtained from your speaker at the Woman’s Club, U*tt what ho wants to know is how they can save enough out of hii to pay I! e premiums.

"I believe the Browns are in earnest, however,” Insisted Henry, “and I never saw any one so enthusiastic os the husband of that little bride because of the help you are giving her to start right” “Oh, very well, Henry. I'll write the budget out for Airs. Brown and get in touch with her," concluded Mrs. Hooper ns she rose from tho table to accompany her husband to the frout door, while Helen dexterously piled the breakfast dishes on the tea-wagon nnd jolled tt back into the kitchen. “But, I don't want to be branded in the neighborhood as a crank and * reformer.” “You are a sensible, helpful woman, Mary,” protested Henry ns he kissed her good-by, "and anything you can do to make the men that work with me lq the office as carefree and comfortable as I am, I'd like to see you pass on.” It was rather an uninteresting shopping list that Airs. Hooper carried in town with her after luncheon, and the bride had laughingly declined to go with her when she asked her about It over tile telephone. \ “No, I think I’ll wait till next week, when you are going to buy some things for yourself,”-' replied the bride, “and then I'll ask you to go with me to get my pantry supplies.

GUARD THWARTS WELL LAID PLOT OF 2 PRISONERS

Special to The Times. SHT3LBYVILLE, Ind., May 28.—The details of a plot for an escape from the Indiana State Prison at Michigan City last week by two prisoners who are well known here, were told to Sheriff Ray Sexton today, while he was at the prison, where he delivered Carl Bernauer, Ir dianapolis, who was convicted here for .nurder and sentenced to prison for life. According to the prison guard who gavs the information the authorities discovered a cleverly laid plot In which Howard Cerf and George Kessler, both of Indianapolis, and life termers, had planned to make their way to freedom. Cerf was convicted at Indianapolis under the habitual criminal law and while held here last fall as a witness in a conspiracy trial, escaped from the Shelby County Jail; he later was captured at Kalamazoo, Mich., and returned to prison. Kessler was convicted In the Shelby Circuit Court In 1919, for the murder of an Indianapolis woman whose body was found in a cistern and he was given a life sentence. Cerf was believed to he a member of a gang of automobile thieves who sent stolen cars to this city 'or disposal. The genius and mechanical ability of Cerf were shown In the plans which he had made for an escape from the prison. The guard informed Sheriff Sexton that Cerf was employed In the molding department of the prison, where he could witness the drilling of prisoners in a court outside his window. For days one of the guards had realized that Cerf was intently watching him as he stood outside the window In the court, but nothing unusual happened until the day of the night on which the men were to make their getaway, when another prisoner Informed the authorities that Cerf had a complete set of keys to unlock the doors of the prison Cerf was searched and the keys were found in his clothing. It was learned that he hat* been conisfnntly studying the constru .lon of the keys on a key-ring that hung from the belt of the prison guard outside his win dow, and in this manner had fixed the pattern of the keys In his mind and then molded a set while at his work. When the keys were used In the doors of the prison they were found to be perfect replicas of the original keys. Cerf was an expert mechanic and locksmith and was said to have so changed stolen automobiles that they were unrecognizable. He f'-cked the lock on the cell of the Jail here In making his escape, using the small wire of an Ice cream bucket.

PUSS IN BOOTS JR. ' By David Cory. Now let me see If I can remember where we left off in the last story without looking In my scrap book, where I keep all my Puss In Boots Junior stories. Oh, yes, I remember now. Puss Junior and the sad-eyed stranger had started off on their Journey together—Puss to deliver the letter from the King to the Great Governor Jorlando, and the stranger—well, I can't tell you yet what he was going tode. But you will soon find out. Well, they traveled together for many days, along highways and byways, by the banks of little brooks and through pleasant woods, where birds sang and the leaves rustled In the breezes. But they didn’t meet any one, not even a little fairy nor a dwarf, and at last, one evening, Just as the moon was rising, they came to a great white rock on the top of a steep hill. It was very large and high and smooth, and on one part was carved In big letters, “White Horse."

So they stood by this rock and looked down into the valley where lay a large city, beautiful In the moonlight. On one side were piled up the dark mountains and on the other side was the wide sea. And the stranger stood very still, with his arms folded, for a long time. But at last he turned to little Puss Junior and said: “What do you think I have something to teU. WUI you listen, little cat? ' "Very gladly,” said Puss Junior, for he felt sorry for the strange, sad man. Then the stranger pointed to a spot Just outside the city, and asked: “Do you see those turrets which point up so high among the green trees?” “Yes,” said Puss, ”1 see the turrets.” “They belong to a grand old castle,” went on the man. “And In that castle live a noble old couple, who have lived their lives there very happily for more than fifty years. “And when the fiftieth year came round, they said: 'Let us celebrate our gold- n wedding. And, since it falls on Chr stmas, we will have for our grandchi'Aren a golden Christmas tree, and all the presents shall be of pure gold.' "And they bought of a countryman a fine green fir-tree, quite tall, because the walls were so high. "Very soon came the Joyful Christmas eve, and not an old couple In the kingdom were so happy as they. For not one little grandchild was missing at their Golden Wedding. It was a happy sight. The grandmother was dressed In a velvet gown and a feather In her turban, and her face was smiling all over. The grandfather had his arms full of little children, and sang, and laughed, and wiped the happy tears from h'.s eyes. "Are you listening, little cat?" asked the traveler, and Puss saw him wipe a tear from his eye. "Yes,” said Puss, “I'm listening. Please tell the rest.” “I will,” said the traveler. "I have made up my mind to tell the rest, and I shall tell It." And Just then Puss thought ho felt the great white stone move, Just a little. And what happened after that you must wait to hear in the next story.—Copyright, 1921. (To be eontinued.)

HOROSCOPE “The stars Incline, bnt do not compel 1*

FRIDAY, MAY 27. This should be a lucky day, if the stars are wisely read. The sun and mercury are In friendly sway, while Venus Is adverse. All who seek employment should loose no time while this configuration prevails, for it Is believed that positions are more easily obtained during this rule than at any other time. Office seekers have a most encouraging sign, making for the favorable consideration of their claims to recognition. Persons whose blrthdate it Is have the angury of a prosperous year. Those who are employed probably will be promoted. Children born on this day will be forunate in business connections and should win early success.—Copyright, 192 L
