INDIANA DENTAL BODY IN MEETING

Dentists From Several State Cities in Attendance. SESSIONS IN CLAYPOOL HOTEL Necessity for Dental Inspection in the Public Schools DiscussedSeveral Addresses on the Program.

Indianapolis.—A large number of dentists from several Indiana cities attended the fifty-seventh annual meeting of the Indiana State Dental association at the Claypool hotel. , The necessity for dental inspection in the public schools was brought to the att co l ion oT file dent lists by Dr. O. U. ■ King of Huntington, president of the association. On the program were iDr. Sidney F. Jacobi of Evansville, Dr. D. A. House of Indianapolis, A. FL Reitz of Evansville! and Dr. J. W. Autenrieth of Fort Wayne. Three Auto Accidents. Vincennes. —Three automobile accidents, none with fatal results, occurred in and near this city. The first was on the Bruceville road, one mile north of here, when William Betz of this city, while on the way to Bickmell with a party of friends, sideswiped another large touring, car. Ira Harlow, an occupant of the Betz car, ■suffered a broken arm and was otherwise injured. While Eugene Kelley, proprietor of a barber shop; his wife, Mrs. Laura Helms, Mrs. Blanche Mayes and her son, Claude Mayes, were on their way to Linton, the car was being driven at a high rate of speed in an effort to climb a steep hill. Kelley suddenly lost control of the machine and Mrs. Helms was thrown headlong out of the car down a steep hill. Her nose was broken and she is suffering severe cuts and bruises. Another accident occurred at Third and Main streets, when cars driven by J. L. Donaldson of Bicknell and A. S. Warner of Lawrenceville were in collision. No one was hurt, but the cars were damaged somewhat.

Charged With Shooting Watchman. Delphi.—A charge of assault and battery with intent to kill was placed here against Lawrence Lawson, seventeen years old, who is said to have been one of the party of Lafayette youths blamed for the shooting of August Scallon, night watchman, in a drunken raid here. Lawson remains in jail in default of sl,000 bond. Lewis Wendling and Jack Friend, held as witnesses, gave bond of S2OO each. The charge in the case probably will be changed to murder, as Scallon is believed certain to die. The local police are convinced ’that Lawson did not actually fire the shot, but that he knows who fired it. and that; this man must be either Vance Loten or the prisoner's brother, Charles F. Lawson, who are still at large.

G. A. R. Commends Wilson. . Shelbyville.—Members of Dumerle post. No. 18, G. A. R., at their meeting here passed a set of resolutions indorsing President Woodrow Wilson for the stand he has taken in the note sent to the imperial German government, They also say ih the resolutions that they will back the president in case of eventualities! Robert W. Wood, one of the members, was named by the post to draft the resolutions' into the proper form and forward them to President Wilson. City Without Police Chief. Crawfordsville. Crawfordsville is wtiheut a chief of police, owing to the failure of the administration to provide a man to take the place of W. V Steward, who resigned and turned in his badge. It was supposed that the council would appoint Patrolman Ed Hill, but a hitch came somewhere and Mayor Murphy admitted that the chief might not be appointed for three or four days. Meanwhile, the leaderless “cops” are taking care of the affairi of the office. Auto Plunges Into Creek. Noblesville. —Doctor Mount, a veterinarian of Kirklin, Clinton county, was in an automobile accid’eut on the Indianapolis pike, two south otthis city. He was on th to Indianapolis, and while going de : a steep hill the steering rod broke. The machine plunged to the bottom of a creek. Mount fell under the car, but escaped injury. Girls Drive Jitney. -Evansville.—Miss Margaret Branin and Miss Jessie Ryan are the first girl jitney drivers in Evansville, having eiitered their car in the trade here. May Face Murder Charge. Marion. —J. E. Brown of Coultersville, 111., will probably face a charge of murder as the result of the death here of George L. Stockdon, twenty. Stockdon was shot by the Illinois man in Coultersville February 10 with a rifle. Since that time the boy has spent nine weeks in St. Elizabeth’s hospital in Belleville, 111., and four weeks at his" home here. Two inches of his spinal column were removed after the shooting, totally paralyzing the young man’s body from the Jungs down.

“SPY” HANGS HIMSELF

KUEPFERLE -ENDS LIFE IN JAIL IN ENGLAND. C. Leaves Note Saying That He Could Not Bear to Mount Scaffold for Such a Death. By JOHN C. FOSTER. International News Service Correspondent. London, Maj- 21. —Anton Kuepferle. the alleged German spy, who was charged with communicating naval and military secrets to England’s enemies, committed suicide in his cell in Brixton jail by hanging, thus bringing the trial to a tragic and sudden close. The body was found when a warden entered Kuepferle’s cell to deliver his breakfast. Kuepferle left the following message upon a slate provided for the .use ol .prisoners: - . J To whom it mar concern: “I am a soldier with a rank which I do not desire to mention. I can say that J have had a fair trial in the United Kingdom, but I am unable to stand the strain any longer and so have de cided to take the law into my own hands. I have fought in many battles, but death is alone my salvation now. I would have preferred a death by shooting at the hands of soldiers as it has been my wish that I should never ascend the scaffold as a—At this point in the letter Kuepferle had drawn a Masonic sign upon the slate. The letter continues: “I hope the Almighty architect of this universe will lead me into the unknown land. I am not dying as a spy, but as a soldier. I stood as a man, but I cannot be a liar and per jure myself. Kindly I shall ask that notification of my death be sent to my uncle, Ambrose Droll of Solingen, Germany. All my estate belongs tc him. What 1 have done I have done for my country. I shall express my thanks and may the Lord bless you all and yours—Kuepferle.” Ori the other side of the slate was written: “I was born on June 11, 1883.” The trials of Muller and Hahn, whc were indicted with Kuepferle will be gin at Old Bailey on June 1.
