STEALS DRESS FOR DAUGHTER’S EASTER

A little girl with golden curls will have no new Easter dress. Because — Her mother, a woman of perhaps 35, and whose name was not written upon the police blotter, Friday was caught in the act of stealing the green silk frock that she meant to give her daughter, 5, that the daughter might know the joys of a “dress-up” Easter. And, because of the child, and because the Indiana Dry Goods store, 306 E. Washington St„ had recovered the childish garment, there was no arrest of the mother who had turned to shoplifting as the means of obtaining a dress for her little girl. The golden-haired child might have had the dress If the crowd that gathered In front of the Indiana Dry Goods store had had its way. Police Sergeant Frank Reilly, would not permit. The crowd wanted to pass the hat and gather funds to buy the dress. Sergeant Reilly refused to listen to the pleadings of pedestrians attracted by the mother's plight. Duty compelled him to take her to police headquarters, he explained. Then came the trip to the station, where the woman was searched. The child with the golden locks looked on. But policemen found nothing on her person that would support shoplifting charges. The offended had OFFICIALS INSIST JURORSOFF LIST (Continued From Page 1) reveal names of Chamberlain and Achey on the tax duplicates. Judge Chamberlin als ocalled in Prosecutor Remy. After a conference lasting almost an hour, Judge Chamberlin declared the situation had been satisfactorily explained by commissioners and that he had offered a few suggestions in order to avoid future controversy. "Both commissioners say definitely and rcrtainly that they put the names of the men in the jury box,” the court stated. “At no time have they taken any names suggested by others. “They 'declared they sometimes drew the names from lists other than the tax duplicates. This is done when the persons are prominent and in many cases it is not necessary to look them up on the tax lists. However, the jury commissioners declared exact duplicate lists of the nffmes drawn are kept by them in order to thwart any moves to place other names in the jury box. Best in State “T have and have had the best jury commissioners Marion County ever had. No county in the State has any better, more reliable and dependable men. I have aboslute faith in them.” Before the confeience began, Hendrickson admitted the list sometimes were chosen from organization and business rosters. “They are not necessarily rechecked,” he stated. Remy told the judge no trace of suspicion was thrown by the prosecutor's office on the commissioners, “but he merely wanted an explanation of the situation.” Possibility that the names may have been in thp jury box for a period of several years was advanced by Hendrickson and Holliday. “It takes about three thousand names a year to supply juries for the county,” they stated. “Often, when the box is about empty, we add more names and draw. This may occur several times in the course of a year. There is always a chance that some names are not drawn for possibly a period of two years.” Three Locks The jury box contains three locks, with Hendrickson, Holliday and County Clerk George Hutseil holding the keys. Each of the three keys must be used to open it before names can be added or drawn. After the box is opened and, if new names are needed, they are selected and added by the commissioners. All names are drawn by the clerk and looked over by Hendrickson and Holliday. In case one of the commissioners or the clerk is absent at the time of drawing Jt is necessary that he leave his key with the other two in order the box may be opened.

recovered its loss and there would be no prosecution from that source. So, it was left up to the arresting officer. It was Sergeant Reilly who passed judgment. “You may go,” he said. And he hopes that the daughter never knows that her mother tried to be a thief.

Why Mr. Groundhog failed to see his shadow on the Voss farm, near Wabash last February has been explained. There were no groundhogs. Last fall, Voss filled alf their burrows with cyano-gas, killing them. All poolrooms at Shirley have been closed since Town Marshall Rigsby shot and killed Herman Riggs. Women of the town demanded it. Sergt. Edward Phillips, army recruiter at Terre Haute, got the thrill of his life when an applicant proclaimed himself as Sergeant York. Phillips on questioning learned however he was not the famous Alvin York, who single handed captured a nest of German machine guns. William Comer, Kokomo fireman, missed the slide pole in answering an alarm and fell fourteen feet to the floor below. He was severely bruised. Chicken thieves around Portland are using gas to silence the hens while robbing chicken houses. Jerry Casey of Wabash says his brother was Dennis Casey, the original Casey at the bat, baseball hero.

"fixit Health Board Secretary Helps on Complaints,

Write your troubles to Mr. Fixit, The Times' representative at the city hall, who will present them to the proper city officials. Write him in care of The Times, signing full name and address. Name and address will not be published. Dr. Herman G. Morgan, city board of health secretary, is a busy official, but he is never too busy to listen to a complaint received by Mr. Fixit. Today he investigated two complaints bearing on health questions. The Cable St. resident can expect some relief from the unsanitary condition at a restaurant in the neighborhood. Dr. Morgan sent an inspector to check the report. The street commissioner's office was unable to promise relief from the rough paving reported on Cable St. north of W. Michigan St. “It will be some time before we get out there,” Mr. Fixit was told. Dr. Morgan also investigated the condition on a lot at St. Peter St. and Boulevard Place, and in rear of Keystone Ave. . Dear Mr. Fixit: There is an old shaggy bush standing directly behind a telephone pole at Dorman and Ohio Sts., which shuts off the view of motorists from the east. One cannot see anything until he is upon the traffic, and there is a high wall on the east side. The hedge should be trimmed. The city talks of beautiful Indianapolis, but pays no attention to the tilings that mar Its beauty. Thank you. C. A. W. Sergt. Frank Owen of police accident bureau will investigate the traffic hazard you reported and take whatever steps are needed. SPEEDS BRIDGE REPAIR Board Orders Engineer to Act on Harding St. Project.

'limes Washington Bureau, liii Sew York Arenue WASHINGTON, April lx '-Senator Arthur Robinson (Rep.), Indiana, has been suggested to Vice President Dawes as successor to Senator Goff, West Virginia, as one of the two regular Republicans on the Reed “slush fund” investigating committee.

Following refusal of Senator SimeOn Fess of Ohio to accept a place on the committee, Republican leaders in Washington held a hasty conference, at which it is understood Senator James E. Watson of Indiana recommended to Dawes in Chicago by long-distance telephone that Ills younger colleague be named Goff’s successor. Opposed Probe Like Fess, Robinson on the Senate floor openly opposed continuance of the committee. , Robinson, however, went much further than the Ohio Senator by engaging in a verbal combat with Senator James 11. Reed, which has gone down in history as the bitterest personal clash between Senators in the Sixty-Ninth Congress. an encounter in which the youthful Indiana Senator took the initiative in trying to take the measure of the veteran Missouri statesman, but which, in the consensus of opinion of a great majority of listen-
