ASSERTS CITY OWNS BARNS Bosson Denies Reports on Shelby St. Structure. Reports that the city has no clear title to the Shelby St. mule bams and that the object of agitation for their sale is an attempt to obtain possession for the Indianapolis Street Railway Company for bus storage, were denied by William Bosson, city attorney, today. Bosson produced what he said is a clear title to the barns, given to the city by the Indianapolis Street Railway Company in 1899 in exchange for “one dollar and oth-jr valuable considerations.’’ Robert I. Todd, president of the Indianapolis Street Railway Company, said he believed the city owned the barns and that he had no information the company was considering them as suitable for storage of the company’s busses. Meanwhile, the shortage of stables to house animals that will be taken from the barns is worrying John F. Walker, street cleaning superintendent, and board of works members. Board members failed to rent the Anheuser-Busch property at 924 E. Ohio St., where a number of police department horses now are stabled. OH!

' | Mediums Quickly Separate Camp Visitors From Money Minds of the Willing Are So Confused Their Savings Disappear.

NOTE—Thie is the thirteenth article Os the series by Virginia Swain, reporter for NBA Service and The Indianapolis Times, revealing: her experiences while spending: five weeka incognito at the national spiritualist camp. Chesterfield, Ind. By Virginia Swain NEA Servioe Writer HESTERFIELD, Ind., Sept. 10. —Camp Chesterfield, the natlonal spiritualist camp here, produces queer and unusual effects on many of the thousands who go through Its gates each year seeking to experience the so-callled spirit phenomena. Addled by spirit messages In dark seances, by warnings of the evil eye and dread of devils lurking In the grove, the minds of many become so confused that it becomes easy for the medium to make them believe almost anything. There was the Indianapolis woman who had been told by a “faith healer’’ that she was possessed of one of the very devils which Christ drove into the swine. She became violent at times and had to be watched constantly by her friends. Harp Calls Wife There was C. J. Pltz, a paperhanger of Dayton, Ohio, who believed that by playing a jews harp he could call the spirit of his wife back to dance for him at any time or place. He confided to me that his wife always appeared dancing at the materializing seances, when he played her favorite tune and that she would probably appear on my film when the grove picture was developed. Pltz was considered a pest by other seance visitors because with his harp he was always monopolizing the seances. “We didn’t come here to see no dance program," growled one man to me at a circle meeting. Then tbyre was the woman who sang with spirit voices nightly in the lobby of the hotel. Some Doubt Talent Seating herself at the wheezy old organ, she played her own accompaniment for Irish and Scottish folk songs, though she didn't know a line of music, and couldn’t sing a note when the spirits were not inspiring her. There were some who had their doubts as to her talent when the spirits were inspiring her. And as for me, I doubted the spirits themselves, for she roomed next to |me and I heard her practicing those same folk songs early In the morning ard late at n!?ht, In preparation for the lobby conceits. The belief In personal controls often leads to a dangerous form of slavery. Every good spirtualist believes that he has one or more guides who control his actions, give him advice and look after Ills material welfare. It does not take long for the

Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound “I have a little - girl - three years old and ever since her birth I have 1 suffered with my back as if it were I breaking in two and I had a bearing down feeling all the time. I also had dizzy spells and was sick at rny st o mach every month. I had V <j read several letters from women and the druggist recommended Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound to my husband for me. Asa result of taking it my back has stopped aching and the awful bearing-down feeling is gone. I feel stronger and do all of my housework and tend to my little girl. I have also taken Lydia E.

Chesterfield mediums to learn the names and characteristics of these guides. They are usually Indians, stillborn infants or orientals, for these three groups axe supposed to be especially effective as guides. Mediums Get Savings Indians are best for financial advice and earthly counsel, for they have more “earth • agnetUm” than civilized peoples. .Stillborn infants are on a high plane because of their purity. And orier *als are endowed with all the ancient wisdom of the east.^ Having learned the name qj your guide, the mediums proceed to rule your actions by transmitting advice and instructions from this guide at every seance. Whereas you might ignore the advice of the medium’s guides or other spirits, if you are a good spiritualist you will always obey the advice of your own guide. Through these guides. the mediums are able to control the every action of the victim, from the Investment of money to the treatment of disease. Instances are on record of Chesterfield visitors who have lost the savings of a lifetime through following the advice of their guides given in seances.

After feeling a slight disatisfaction for some time over the cumbersome appearance of small garages built with large concrete blocks, A Benzlnger, 2029 Madison Ave., has introduced a small block that he is specializing in for this purpose. As he points out, a concrete garage is warmer in the winter and cooler in tha summer and the neatness of appearance with this new type of block mkkes them ideal in every way. They are unquestionably more durable than any other type of building and he asserts for them, the first cost is the last. The size of this new block, Is oxßx2o Inches and is made of the highest grade concrete. A garage built of thla type block on a lot on which the house is already built will fit In admirably with any type of house and will be a building of which any one could bo proud. The initial cost is not appreciably greater wt -n these advantages are considered.

HOME SETTING GIVES BEAUTY

Architecture and House Site Either Mar or Enhance Appearance of Building——Exercise Care in Selection of Surroundings. By Molly Elliott So much depends upon the surroundings of a home when you are contemplating the type of architecture. Many a charming home site has been spoiled by the erection of a house too large or too small or in the wrong comer or one way or another. And far too many artistically designs houses are built on lots altogether unsuited to the architecture. Jar The Eyes Few sights Jar on the artistic eye so much as a rambling, careless villa type of house perched slap dab In the middle of a forty by a hundred city lot with frame double on one side and square American brick on the other. Or worse, still Is the mansion type of small house with stucco above and the brick below and gables arid small pane windows and only a tiny vestibule on the front planted out In the middle of a treeless stretch of terra flrma with apparently no excuse for its existence within sight. These things sound absurd but we see them every day. Os course • every lot cannot be wooded, or if it were we couldn't all afford to pay the added price for wooded lots, for secretly we all prefer them.But whether buying or building for permanent residence or for Investment, the natural inclination of the far-seeing home builder is to make the best of his opportunities at hand. For instance, one man whose lot was about the ordinary size of a city lot, was aware that the house he had planned In his mind would not be suitable on the lot that be -had purchased, so Instead of building a quaint Japanese typo house with spreading eaves and large front porch, he reduced his plans, made a little unsheltered terrace on the shaded side of the house and built his home of cool looking stucco with light trimmings that gave it an appearance of trim ness that proved entirely charming. Plenty of Trees The. lot with plenty of trees allows wider variety anil much greater play for the Imagination, but even at that one sees on every hand indications that persons with no Imagination and little idea of the fitness of things had allowed, for Instances a square two-story to be built right up into the very tree tops, whose very whisperings seemed to be in rebellion at tho intrusion. The person whose imagination must be a precious thing to him was the one who, because of a certain great tree that would have to be removed for one type of house, provided for it by making bis house curve so ns to avoid it. The result was that the house and trees and lot and all se ’ ned to be in perfect harmony like a design of pleasing proportions. These tnings are in danger of being overlooked In the enthusiasm over the type of architecture of the house of our dreamfc. Great as may seem the disappointment over having to discard those long loved plans, the house planned to fit Its surroundings will give greater Joy.

LOCAL COMPANY BRINGS DREAMS OF HOMES TRUE " V Robert H. Shelhorn Firm Built Fifty Houses Last Year. The reason all those little houses along Carrollton and Guilford Aves. from 6600 to 6000 look so well pleased with themselves Is because the owners are altogether satisfied.

This company has listened to the tales of distressed home builders and smoothed them out with Alladln agility. The result has been that last year they built fifty houses ranging in price from $5,000 to $7,600 and this year thus far have built as many as that and have prospects for many more, according to Kenneth Griffith of the company. They have bent their efforts in the direction of the loca'lty mentioned because they feel it to be Imminently valuable as an investment for the owners and because* for numerous reasons, they feel it to be a locality with tried and assured popularity with the progress of Indianapolis, said Griffith.
