MERIDIAN BUS PLEA HINGES ON CITY’SDECISION Public Service Chief VI ill Confer With Slack on Route Change. Howell Ellis, public service commissioner, who presided at the hearing on petition of the Peoples' Motor Coach Company for bus routes on North Meridian street, will investigate city ordinances covering the matter and also may confer with Mayor L. Ert Slack, he announced today. It is considered likely that unless there is objection from city authorities, the petition will be granted. It will take Riverside busses off Delaware street and place them on Meridian to Thirtieth and inaugurate a new line to Butler university. Hearing on the petition was held In the house of representatives Wednesday. About seventy-five citizens attended the morning and afternoon sessions. Only objections to the move came from the Hoosier Motor Club, whose offices are on Notrth Meridian street, and R. H. Losey of the Losey-Nash company. Secretary Tod Stoops of the Hoofer Motor Club was tangled badly in cross-questioning on the witness stand at the forenoon session. David A. Watson, attorney for the Indianapolis Street Railway Company, which owns the bus lines, got Stoops to admit that stops on North Meridian street by the wide busses was his main objection to opening the street to such traffic. Then he said that most people on the street would not ride the busses. Then there will be no stops, Watson pointed out. Superintendent James P. Tretton of the company said they were ready to put ten brand new busses in operation on the new Butler line as soon as the move is approved.

Indiana Girl is Happy, Now

The quick, easy way those ailments of children such as headaches, feverishness, biliousness, coated tongue, bad bibath, no appetite or energy, etc., simply vanish with the first few doses of California Fig Syrup, is always a surprise to those who use their fine old medicine for the first time. Weak, puny, restless and cross children never fail to pick up weight and gain strength and energy under its gentle influence. It stimulates the appetite, regulates the stomach and bowels and gives these organs tone and strength so they continue to act normally, of their own accord. A well-known Indiana mother, Mrs. Elizr.beth Brown, 1C24 Shelly street, Indianapolis, says: “Helen is rosy-cheeked, bright-eyed and happy, now; but when she was a baby we had a lot of trouble with her. She was a bottle-baby and her stomach and bowels seemed to be weak. She suffered from constipation and biliousness until she was fretful and peevish most of tne time. Then we gave her some California Fig Syrup and her _ trouble stopped quick. We kept on ' giving it to her and soon she was well, strong and happy.” Be sure to ask for California Fig Syrup by the full name so you’ll get the genuine, endorsed by physicians for over 50 years.—Advertisement.

SLEUTH FEARS ELECTRIC CHAIR IN LOVEDEATH Harvey L. Smith, Held at South Bend, Near Collapse. By United Press SOUTH BEND, Ind., Oct. 25. Harvey L. Smith, private detective, was near a nervous collapse in the county jail here today fearful that his confessed participation in the kidnaping of Mrs. Genevieve Stults would send him to the electric chair. Smith admitted he had been paid SSO to get Mrs. Stults away from Charles L. Reyher for a few days, but he declared he had passed on the task to two strangers. Mrs. Stults was killed and her body buried in lime near Elkhart. However, the detective fears his story is doubted by police and Wednesday night repeated over and over to his visitors: “Maybe they’ll send me to the chair. Believe me, I did not kill her—but who’ll believe me?” he asked. Under severe questioning, Smith declared he had no part in the actual killing. Mrs. Stults’ body was found Oct. 15, seven months after her disappearance. Jointly accused in the murder with Smith are Reyher and Mrs. Reyher now in jail at Goshen. Reyher has admitted carrying on a clandestine love affair with Mrs. Stults, a beauty shop operator. Mrs. Reyher confessed she paid Smith SSO “to get Mrs. Stults out of town,” so she could keep her husband. Smith was returned here from Atlanta, Ga„ where he was arrested a few days after the body was found. The detective revealed to police that he not only had been hired by Mrs. Reyher to kidnap Mrs. Stults, but that Reyher had hired him to get a packet of love notes from the beauty culturist’s apartment. COUNTY TO ASK FOR RIVER FLOOD BONDS

Draft Ordinance for $400,000 Issue on White Project. An ordinance for a bond issue of about $400,000 to pay part of the county’s share of the White river flood prevention project will be presented to county council Nov. 9. Harry Dunn, county auditor, said the total to be paid by the county is $625,000, but that the county will save money on the interest cost if only part of the amount is issued at one time. The second issue will be asked during the next six months, Dunn said. The total cost of the project will be $1,366,501.45, according to figures compiled. This will cover the cost of widening the river channel, building anew bridge at Morris street and construction of a levee from Morris to Raymond streets. “If I Were Devil,” Cadle’s “How I Would Run the State of Indiana If I Were the Devil,” will be explained by E. Howard Cadle, in an address.at the Andersonville U. B. church at 2:30 Sunday.

Pet Papa! Woman Says Fondle Father, Humor Him, While Feeding Him.

IF he’s any kind of a husband or father at all, feed and fondle the brute. This was the advice of Mrs. Felix T. McWhirter, Indianapolis, at the dinner of the American home department of the Indiana Federation of Clubs at the department’s clubhouse, 1702 North Meridian street, Wednesday evening. “Company manners at home is the one great need in America,” said Mrs. McWhirter. “Men are unlike women. The stalwart courageous man is usually admired by women and the cheerful, pleasant woman by man. The man with a high-powered-personality is very responsive to loving kindness. “The sensible woman will recognize these facts and study the psychology of the situation. If a man is a good head of the family, if he takes a creditable place in the community, his family should humor his little peculiarities. They should watch his wishes, greet him cheerfully when he comes in, and help him to keep a happy attitude toward the world.” The nature of woman and her mission is the same the world over, Mrs. McWhirter said, in discussing her recent year spent in Europe.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

CONVICT BREAKS ISLAND PRISON Notorious French Criminal ‘Achieves Impossible.’ Bn United Press CARACAS, Venezuela, Oct. 25. Dr. Pierre Bougrat, notorious French convict, has achieved the almost impossible feat of escaping from Devil’s island, the dreaded French penal colony on the coast of French Guiana. / Word was received here today that Dr. Bougrat had reached Irapa, a small seaport on the Gulf of Paris. Dr. Bougrat, a former prominent physician of Marseilles, France, escaped from the Devil’s island colony on Sept. 5. The news caused great interest, for Bougrat’s case was one of the most sensational in recent French criminal history. He had been sentenced to life imprisonment on Devil’s island, a fate that men dread almost as much as death. Dr. Bougrat was sentenced for the murder of Jacques Rumebe, a bank collector. Rumebe’s body was founa quite by accident, months after the crime, concealed in a closet in the doctor’s office. The closet had been papered over. Rumebe had a large sum with him when he disappeared, which furnished a motive for the crime.

DODSON GROUP BEWAILS, ‘NO FIGHT ISSUE’ Faction Attempts to Weld New Machine; Can’t Control Council. “We have nothing to fight for.” This was the word passed out in the ranks of Otis Dodson’s political faction today as election day nears. Several members of the old Dodson faction, that functioned until the primary when all of the candidates supported by this group were wiped from the slates with the exception of Coroner Charles Keever, have attempted to reorganize. The purpose of the organization was to be a fight on George V. Coffin’s political faction, until the returns were in. There is a possibility of ihe resignation of at least one member of the county council before Jan. 1. If this occurs, combined with the possibile election of John E. Shearer, councilman, and candidate for county commissionr with Coffin support, Dodson faction members indicated there might be a reorganization of the group. If there are no resignations from the county council before Shearer is elected and takes office, there is no chance for Dodson to gain control. If Shearer is made commissioner, there will be three members of the Coffin faction in office and three from the Dodson group in the council This, it is predicted, unless someone who is agreeable to both groups is nominated—which is not deemed likely—means the council may consist of six members for perhaps many months. This situation occurred four years ago when Cassius L. Hoglo was elected out of the council to the
