ADMINISTRATION EDGES TOWARD JOHN L. DUVALL fcloser Relation Develops as End of Office Terms Approach. Every day in every way a closer relation between the present administration and the candidacy of John L. Duvall, Republican nominee for mayor, is developing. As the fateful date, Dec., 31, when employes of the Shank administration are scheduled to lose their grip upon the pay roll, becomes visible, the Duvall talk at city hall grows. The tendency toward a tje-up between the Shank-Armitage administration and the Duvall organization is said to annoy the Duvall managers, for like all outgoing administrations the present one is unpopular in many quarters. Rainier on Wagon One of the first administration chiefs to run towards the Duvall band wagon was J. F. Rainier, assessment bureau chief, who worked for Duvall while his comrades were toiling for Ralph A. Lemcke, deft. ted in the primary. “When I’m for a man, I’m for him ” William H. Armitage, generalissimo of the Shank administration, explained his fervent support of Duvall when a few months ago he was leading his powerful organization in behalf of Lemcke. Managers Squirm Duvall's campaign managers are quinring, for they are faced with the delicate maneuver of reconciling their candidate’s denunciation of Armitage to Bill’s present fealty. “Fire Bill Armitage and save the

MAY GET CONVENTION Kiwanians to Discuss Bidding For 1927 Meeting The Kiwanis International Convention may come to Indianapolis in 1927. Indianapolis Kiwanians will discuss the question of extending an Invitation to hold the gathering here at luncheon Wednesday at the Claypool, Mervin J. Hammel secretary, announced. Harry, E. Yookey, president has written Frederick Parker, international secretary, regarding the proposal. city 10 per cent on its paving contracts’’ was a campaign promise made by Duvall in one of his springtime addresses. Political observers say Armitage ,bopes to acquire as great power in the administration of Duvall, if elected, as he held during Mayor Shank’s term of office. Armitage, however, ran into a stone wall a few days ago when he sought to entrap several thousand colored votes for Duvall through the political influence of Beverly Howard, custodian of the city hall. / Myers Clubs harmed Howard “got the work” in Bill’s office, but remained firm in opposition to Duvall. He is now organizing clubs of colored voters for Walter Myers, Democratic candidate. According to present plans, Mayor Shank will ask John L. Duvall, to scan the budget for 1926, without extending an invitation to Walter Myers. Shank has refused to announce he will back the Republican nominee, but those who know say he has advanced many steps toward the G. O. P. camp since he stated a few months ago that “I might support Myers.” General opinion of political observers is that efforts tor Duvall will avail city employes nothing. Should the Republican nominee be elected, it is believed he will sweep and sweep clean, for hundreds of his supporters in the primary campaign are hungry to feed at the public trough during the next four years. BRYAN REGRETS BEING PREPARED Democrat Committee and Club to Have Resolutions. Resolutions on % the death of William Jennings Bryan were in course of preparation today by committees representing the Indiana Democratic Club and the Democratic State committee. E. S. Shumaker, superintendent of the Indiana Anti-Saloon League, said that he would address a letter of regret to Mrs. Bryan and later league directors will prepare formal resolutions.

Washington and designed by the order of Cincinnatus. In the sleeping rooms are four-poster beds with draperies. There is also the accompanying prayer stool. One bed inparticular, of a pineapple pattern so beautiful, would make the heart of any collector ache for its possession. Memories of war days have not been overlooked. A Mexican blanket brought back from the war of 1812 by Senator Lane Is only one of the reminders of those day of conflict. Finds Funeral Invitation Among the very rare keepsakes is one showing a social custom of the time, a funeral invitation issued in 1849. The style remind;; one of a wedding invitation of today and' announces that the funeral of James Elston will take place at the home of his parents on November 9, 1849. From Lane Place I went to the office of Dumont Kennedy, former mayor of Crawfordsville. “I am a hiker for the Ind<anapolis Times and I would like to hike out to your log cabin,” I told him. He looked at me a minute then laughed. He con sented and hiked with me, taking Mrs. Kennedy along. The Cabin, as it is known far and wide, is a three room log house built
by Kennedy in a Spirit of play some twenty years ago. Like many another prominent man, his hobby is relics and the cabin was to house the collection. However, so interesting did the collection prove and so-cozy did the cabin become, that college students, men’s clubs, scout trops, professor’s gatherings, have .ull adopted its homey quarters as a meeting place. \ “In fact,” stated my first informer of the cabin’s existence, “it is sometimes a queGtion whether Kennedy or the town owns the cabin so pop ular has it become as a gathering place for all the clubs and societies.” The massive fireplace, equipped with crane and kettle, the long-nalfdled waffle Irons and the Dutch ovens all contribute their share toward the success of the various feedo. Gun FYom Every War In the front room hangs a gun from every war in which the United States has taken part. Also 'there is the first Henry rifle 'made, with the figure No. 1 plainly marked. It ip of the revolving type and a sixteen repeater and was presented to Edwin M. Stanton, secretary of war under Lineoln, as a sample. A rare print made by Frank Carpenter of the war cabinet of Lincoln hangs in the inner room. Another picture is a photo taken at an archer tournament, a sport little heard of these days. Among the members of the Crawfordsville organization were Will H. Thompson, the author of “High Tide at Gettysburg,” and his brother Maurice, also an author and best known for his hook, "Alice of Old Vincennes.” History states that William Offleld was the first settler in Montgomery County but the pergonal history of Offield was lost, until very recently when It was traced by Kennedy. The written biography is now framed with a pencil drawing which Lew

Wallace mad® of Offield and presented to Kennedy’s father. ( lay Didn’t Pay Just as we were about to leave the cabin Kennedy called my attention to an old account book belonging to his grandfather, Joseph Kennedy, Paris, Ky. From Us pages we learn that the elder Kennedy apparently kept a blacksmith shop and that the great Henry Clay was a patron. We also learned that Clay did not always pay cash for work done and eight pages of charge accounts are recorded against his name. On Oct. 8, 1825, according to the book. Clay was charged for having his plow sharpened. On Sept. 8, two horseshoes were made from iron furnished by Clay. The words "your iron” appear in parenthesis Immediately following the items charged. It is evident that Clay was a steady customer and patronized the 3mithy for quite some time, for eight years later. In 1833, on July 23, Clay is charged with having a pitchfork made and on Aug. 12, a bridle, bit. '“From Crawfordsville I went to Yountsville, the home of the old mill. It is four and a half miles distance over graveled roads which was difficult to hike and autos going in my direction were few and far between, but the scenery was beautiful.
