Ac attempt to sell a pair of new shoes of expensive make to a waiter In a case at 117 North Illinois street at 4 a. m. today, for $2, led Motorcycle Policeman Brooks, who was in the restaurant, to question Wlntz. The young man, well dressed and a clever talker, explained that he was Just a little short of ready cash and sold the shoes so that he could purchase a lunch. Then he explained that he lived at BIS North Illinois street, and offered the policeman 25 cents to give him a ride home on the back of his motorcycle. * Bramble was found loafing outside of the case by another policeman and admitted he was waiting for Wlntz. In the pockets of the two young men were found checks Issued at the checkroom of the i Union Depot and when these were presented by the police they found packages containing merchandise from which the price mark had not been removed. The packages contained another pair of new shoes, s<so worth of silk shirts, five new suits of nndcrwear. anew night shirt, two dozen expensive handkerchiefs z>id neckties worth more than $3. In the possession of Wintz was found a check book on the National City Bank. The stubs Indicated that checks had been written to Spencer case, for $2.25: Carter, for merchandise, $27 15: J. C.

Some of the stores, he said, had not made deliveries of articles purchased. CHECK STTB.S SHOW MANY PVKCHASES. The system used, Wintz said, was to visit the stores, make purchases and order the merchandise sent to 536 North Illinois street, then later telephone the store the delivery to 518 North Illinois street, as the purchaser would he away from home and wished the merchandise left at the home of his friend. Then the men would meet the delivery truck and receive the articles "purchased.” The two men under arest and a third man not found by the police came to Indianapolis from Evansville Saturday. All were fashionably dressed and are said to be members of good families in Evansville. J 7 INDIANA MEN GET COMMANDS — • Eighty-fourth Division Assignments Made.

Melbourne, victoria, Australia—a new governor for the State of Victoria, sent out by the Imperial British Government, arrived In Melbourne while we were there. He was given a hearty and generous reception, presented with a gorgeous address of welcome, and conducted in state to the mansion where he will make his home until such time as he turns the job over to bis successor. One unacquainted with the British system of government would most likely hare been speculating in his mind as to how the state would prosper tinder the new governor, what reforms he would Introduce, how he would settle certain vexing questions atvd so on. Asa matter of fact, the governor of a state in Australia has none of these things to do. He is on the Job mostly as emblematic of the fact that Australia Is a part of the empire, that the states are subject to the crown and that he Is the connecting link between them and the mother country. So far as governing is concerned he has the title and he will uphold it with dignity, but the actual work, the dictation of policy, the passage of legislation, be attended to by the Victorians themselves. There was an irreverent laboring man standing in the crowd beside me at the conclusion of the open-air ceremonies which marked the formal introduction of the new governor to the people. ‘‘And now, old boy, you can go ahead and look pretty until yer time is up." said he with an exaggerated bow | n [be

direction of* the distant governor. And in that Ironical comment there was a great deal of truth. The real governor of Victoria is the man who happens to be premier of the government which is then in power. Like his fellow ministers who make up the cabinet, he usually is a member of one of the two houses of the state Parliament. The upper house is called the legislative council and It consists of thirty-four members, two from each of the seventeen electoral provinces Into which the state is divided. The members of the council are elected by the votes Qf only those who own property above a certain amount, university students and graduates, lawyers, doctors, ministers, schoolmasters and naval and military officers. The legislative assembly consists of sixty-five members, from as many electoral districts, who are elected by popular vote in their respective districts, both men and women above the age of 21 hav lng a vote. They hold office for three years unless parliament Is dissolved sooner. The party which has a majority in Parliament chooses the premier. He in turff'chooses the members of his cabinet. Four of them must te members of Parliament, not more than two being members of the council, while not more than six can belong to the lower house. Os course the list Is submitted to the governor, who can veto any of them If there are serious objections to him, but this has never happened. The governor also has the power to yeto any legislation passed by Parliament, bnt he never does unless he is ordered to do so ty the Imperial government. VOTE BY MAIL 2 PER CENT. In previous articles I have mentioned that there are many thinly settled districts In Victoria. Even the most remote jf settlers can exercise their privilege of voting—by mail. If the voter lives five miles from a voting booth (or three miles in the mountain country), or has reason to believe that on election day he will he that far away, or If he Is ill or Infirm, he may vote by mailing to the election officials of his district a properly filled out postal ballot. About 2 per cent of the voters of the state vote In this way. The Australian viewpoint of what government Is for Is not the viewpoint of the Tinted States. Government to Australians Is to do the people's business and apparently there Is no limit to that business, for the state runs railroads and street cars and ferryboats, waterworks, irrigation schemes, light plants, fixes wages and hours of labor, makes clothes and machinery, sells products, builds fences and roads, lends money to sat tiers, provides accident Insurance, buys and sells lands and engages in businesses which private individuals do not care to operate. I mentioned to a witty Victorian the fact that action by Parliament seemed

TIN MIR BARK WITH SAGE TEA If Mixed with Sulphur It Darkens so Naturally Nobody can Tell. The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grandmother's recipe, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good even color, which is quite sensible, as we are living in an age when a youthful appearance Is of the greatest advantage. Nowadayo, though, we don’t have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use product, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called “Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound.” It is very popular because nobody can discover it has Leen applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladles with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compond, is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair, after a few applications, it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abondaDce which is so attractive. —Advertisement.

to be the method by which the people seemed to think all Ills could be cured. "Righto,” replied he. “Our governmental policies all appear to be based on a desire to help lame dogs over stiles, but sometimes the way In which you help the dog over may do him more harm than good, for Instance If you toss him over and he lands on the other side In worse shape than he waa In the first place." A8 early as 1873 Victoria began legislating for the benefit of the working man. That Is the year in which a law was passed forbidding the employment of women In a factory for more than eight hours a day. This was followed by laws requiring the registration of factories, prescribing measures of sanitation and safety and flxingsthe closing hours of shops.

The state originated the system of wage boards, of which there now are someone hundred and sixty, composed of equal numbers of employers and employes, who fix the wages la, their respective trades. They operate under the department of labor, which enforces their decisions. One outgrowth of these boards Is a law requiring all employers to pay at least twice a month all wages which are due. Child labcr Is forbidden for boys under 14 and girls under 15. There Is a minimum wage, fixed by law, for all factory employes. Apprenticeships of boys to the various trades are permitted under state supervision, the departun nt of labor seeing that the hoy Is propel ty taught and also that be is regular in his attendance upon the Job. A state labor exchange Is mentioned which registers the unemployed and finds them work and advances money as a loan to workmen who are unable to pay their fares to places where they have obtained jobs. A workmen's accident compensation act is In effect The state operates a competitive accident Insurance company, which Insures employers against loss under the compensation act. It is compulsory upon employers to taka out policies In either the state company or some company approved by the government for the full amount of his liability under tba compensation law. The rival companies to the state office, some fifty In nntnber, are compelled to put up cash bonds with the state to Insure their car Tying out the provisions of the policies which they ls*u. A stuffed club Is used to compel them to hold their rates to that of the state toneern by lnerens- 1 lng the amount of bond as the rata In- ]

All of the charitable and reformatory Institutions of the state are under the supervision of the government which itself maintains institutions, and subsidizes others, including hospitals of a general character and for women and children, sanitariums for consumptives; deaf, dumb blind and eye and ear institutions, insane hospitals and foundling hospitals. It was somewhat of a shock to read in the paper that so an-so “2 'years and 6 months old, has been arrested on a charge of being a neglected child.” I thought that they must begin with them early la Victoria so I went investigating and I learned the state makes ample and generous provisions for taking care of Its children. T s . the parents cannot, or 1 do not, proviue a home, food, clothing and an education, the state will do so. The method is to have the child declared a ward of the state undef control of the 'department for neglected children. If the mother is a competent hard-working worn an whose brood has got beyond her, the state will authorize her to board her~own children at certain stated rates, according to the age of the child. If it is not prac- , ticable for the children to remain with the mother they are boarded out with friends or dther competent persons and the state maintains a watchful eye on these wards until they have obtained the grammar school education; then it j finds work for them and does not turn i

1 them loose until they are solidly on their feet. A parent cannot dodge responsibility for children who are In the way by boarding It out unless this action Is registered , with the state, which carefully watches the record and does not permit the parent to get in arrears on the board without making the child a ward of the state and bringing the negligent parent to account. One Industrial and one reform school for children 1* maintained by the state, while others receive payment for I those state wards which It handles, and i still others which have become financially embarrassed have been taken over and are being operated by the government until they get on tluMr feet. Around three-quarters of a million dollars is spent annually on Victoria's neglected children. Victoria once gave pensions to Its aged and infirm, but this has fallen now upon the commonwealth except in the | cases of Victorian state employes who grow upon the Job. EX-NOLDIEB.B YVKI.L TREATED.

More than $2,000,000 has been advanced In this way.

the saloon must be held In check is evident. Within the last few years it passed a law reducing the number of bars, making the hours in which they may remain open very short and taxing them according to the amount of business they do. In the rural districts the bars are requlred to be certain distances apart and are limited according to population. Melbourne University is a state-oper-ated institution for higher education, and others, operated by various religious denominations, are affiliated with it, the buildings being on grounds set aside for that purpose by the st.atg.

An examination of the vital statistics of the state reveals that the birth rate of the state is only 22.29 per thousand of population, that the infant mortality is the greatest of any State In the com-in<fl\-wealth, the death rate of H 1.7 per thousand population is the highest. At first blush this would seem to give the He to the boast of Victoria that it lias the healthiest climate in Australia. Fur Iher investigation, however, sheds light upon this apparent contradiction. The number of aged people in Victoria is greater according to population than in other sfates and the deaths among the i people of the younger ages is remark ably low. It is when you probe into the figures on Infant mortality that you drag light the skeleton in Victoria's family closet. Twenty per cei t of Its total births are Illegitimate and the death rate among Illegitimate children is very high. It is significant that the excess of births over deaths has been decreas lug In the state, that It is the lowest ir tho commonwealth and tlint the per rentage of legitimate births in the state is not only lower than that of any other state but Is lower than the average of the whole country. Street walking in Melbourne's moat prominent thoroughfare Is quite prevalent After nightfall the city's most prominent street and block, the parade of those who are out for u stroll or to window shop. Is literally thick with women of the streets. In one block one our party counted twenty - seven women of this class within five Ml inufies

Victoria Is a wealthy state. It probably stands much higher In the list according to population than its position In the empire Indicates The average weekly clearances of the Melbourne clearing house is more than $30,000,000 Th<-re are sixteen banking Institutions In the state with a total of about 750 branches. Os course, the enormous amount of buslnoss which Is transacted Is duo largely to tho activities of exports and Imports of Melbourne, through the port of which most of Victoria's annual ex ports of $112,000,000 nnd Imports of $140,000,000,000 pass. As I said at the start Victoria Is only the second emallest etate of Australia, but It has grant possibilities and Its wealth Is enormous. When It has recov ered from the effects of the great World War It le bound to progress at a rate that will set a neat pace for her sister states of the commonwellth.

BOOZE-CRAZED MAN MURDERS 2, INJURES 1 Tragedy in ‘Black Belt* of Chicago Alarms Police Reserves. CHICAOO, Oct. 21.—A moonshine crazed white man, armed with a longbutcher knife, ran amuck in Chicago’s “black belt” today, killing two persons and wounding a third. In another section of the belt, two white men stabbed a negro policeman who attempted to stop an argument In a cabaret. They escaped. Police reserves and plain clothes men were held In readiness to rush to the belt —scene of the race riots of more than a year ago—ln case feeling ran high because of the crimes. Daisy Jackson was the first victim of the crazed man. Witnesses said they saw j a white man follow her Into an alley. Screams were heard nnd the woman was found with her throat out. Before search for the slayer was organized, It was reported to police that a man of the same description had cut the throat of Louise Franklin. She Was perhaps fatally Injured. l.ater, the same man attacked Mannig Williams, a hot tamale vender and killed him. Following the Jackson woman’s mnr--1 der. her sister Susanne, 8, was missing and has not yet been found. It was feared by police that the mlirderer had mutilated and hid her body. Miles Sylvester Brown, patrolman, was stabbed by two white men in a cabaret shortlv after midnight, when he attempted to stop an argument between them and a white woman. Police said this case had nothing to do with th" three other stabbtngs.
