New Indiana Flora Is Named for State Man

New Species Called Deamii in Honor of Bluffton Conservationist. Charles C. Deam, nationally known botanist and research forester of the state conservation department. has been honored by having certain flora found in Indiana named after him, it was learned too’ay. In the current issue of Rhodora, a botanical journal of high standing in the scientific world, Deam's discovery of new’ plant specimens is given high tribute. The article, written by Paul C. Standly, says: “This variety was called to my attention by C. C. Deam, who showed me a large series of specimens collected at numerous localities in Indiana and suggested that the form should receive a name. The variety consequently is named Deamii, .n his honor, since he is too modest to describe it himself. “Modesty is not one of the besetting sins of botanists, and in this case, it is all the more to be regretted upon the part of one who possesses a knowledge of the flora of the upper Mississippi valley, such as probably will not be attained by any other botanist in the very near future.” There is a footnote stating: “The editors of Rhodora fully concur.” Deam lives at Bluffton. He has been a student of botany and forestry for a half century. He now is engaged in writing a book called “The Flora of Indiana.” File Bankruptcy Pleas Voluntary bankruptcy petitions were filed in federal court today by Frank A. Williams of Willamsburg, Ind., and his wife, Mrs. Elizabeth E. Williams. Williams listed $53,068 liabilities and $13,249 assets, v.Jile his wife listed $22,645 liabilities md $6,310 assets.

■RED’ REPORTS PROBED Adjutant-General Ordered to Make Investigation of Rumors. Adjutant-General Manford G. Hanley of the Indiana national guard, today was instructed by Governor Harry G. Leslie to go to Lake county personally to investigate possibilities for a parade and demonstration of “Red” sympathizers next Wednesday. Discounting alarms over the threatened demonstration, which he characterized as “probably imaginary,” Governor Leslie declared he ordered the investigation as a matter of public policy and “precaution.” Any evidence found of such an intended outbreak would mean national guardsmen would be called into service, he indicated.

lUPBRAIDS LOVER TO WHOM SHE 'PRAYED AS GOD' Mrs. Brandon Is Bitter in Denunciation at Suit for Half Million. Ttu United I'rrs* NEW YORK, Feb. 21—Mrs. Frances Marion Brandon ran i through a little light verbal exercise on the witness stand in supreme ! court today, got thoroughly warmed i up to her subject and then rose to new heights in her denunciation of George J. Gillespie, whom she is suing for $574,185. She charges him with breach of promise and fraud. Impartial observers in the crowded courtroom were inclined to believe that Mrs. Brandon’s performance today excelled those of the two previous days on which she has testified. While she could think of only one more name to call Gillespie, her gestures showed a greater command of the situation. Under cross-examination by Theodore Kiendl, counsel for Gillespie, Mrs. Brandon was led up to her big moment. She was being asked about the red triangles in her diary—combinations, she said, of the scarlet letter and the eternal triangle, which were used to mark her love trysts with Gillespie—when Kiendl asked: “On the anniversary of the first scarlet triangle, that is, on the night of Jan. 30, 1923, did you show Mr. Gillespie all those marks you had made?” “I am not sure,” she said. “Gillespie,” said Kiendl. “that is. Mr. Gillespie ” “At that time, he was neither Gillespie nor Mr. Gillespie to me,” interrupted Mrs. Brandon. “Oh. you called him Robin?”.

Mrs. Brandon became excited. She leaped out of the witness chair and with one furious sweep of her hand ripped off her black, wide-brimmed hat. She stamped her feet. Her hand swept across her neck and tore off a necklace to which a medal was attacked. She waved a pink card in the air and screamed: "He was Saint George to Me.” That was anew name and Kiendl quickly led her on to talk about it. They Vent into a discussion of religion and Mrs. Branon explained “I never prayed to Christ. I prayed to George Gillespie. I prayed to him after 1 was baptized in his faith.” Some scientists believe the conditions necessary for the beginning of a frigid age now exists, and that the earth is again entering an ice age.
