performance incomparable STATE CARRIERS TO HAVE State Meetnig of Postmen will be Held in Muncie on May 30. RICHMOND POSTOFFICE CARRIERS RECEIVE INVITATIONS AND LIKELY WILL HAVE REPRESENTATION AT SESSION. Richmond postofflce letter carriers have received invitations to attend, what probably will prove the most largely attended and best conventions ever held In Indiana by the State Organization of Letter Carriers, and which will take place in Muncie on Memorial Day, May 30. Plans for an elaborate entertainment of the hustlers of Uncle Sam are being formulated by the Muncie organization. The State officers, including W. W. Wilson, of Indianapolis, have responded, assuring their presence. Ed. Galnor, of Muncie, who is vice president of the national association, will take an important part in the proceedings of the convention. "We want every letter carrier In Indiana to be our guests," is the urgent request of Muncie Branch No. 98, in the Invitations received In Richmond, which even goes stronger to swell the attendance by asking the carriers to bring their wives, children sweethearts and whole "kit and biling." The visitors are assured unusual entertainment during their stay In Muncie, and It might sound well to the postmen to mention some of the "good time" provisions that will be kept In stock on the occasion. Every guest will have an opportunity to secure a view of Muncie. and at the same time will be able to enjoy an automobile ride, as forty of the big touring cars have been engaged. A baseball game between letter carriers will be followed by a matinee theater party for the ladv visitors. At six o'clock a big feed will hold sway and the deliveries of postal matter guarantee that there will be plenty of good rations for everybody and then some. The evening session promises to be extraordinary and a fine program has been prepared for this event. Including music, both instrumental and vocal, and speeches galore. The festivities will close with everything from psalm-singing to fed fire, to say nothing of a hole In the wall that will run like "Tennyson's Brook." The business session of the meeting will be Important, as a number of pressing matters will come nt for consideration.

Plenty of Amusement Assured the Young People on Monday and Tuesday, When the "Barnum" of the Dog and Pony Circus will be in the city, The coming week promises to afford plenty of amusement for the little folks of Richmond and to many older folks as well who are fond of the dog and pony show. Next Monday and Tuesday Seibel Bros.' company of 200 animal actors, including dogs, ponies and monkeys, will be here for two per formances, and a beautiful miniature street parade. Seibel Bros, are making their Initial visit through this state, playing the larger cities prncpally, and have a new dog and pony show which they claim to be superior in many respects, to any similar exhibition in the country. The show has been on tour for only three years, but during that time it has come to the front very rapidly. "There Is not an old or wornout act on the program," says the press agent, "and we have a ring performance consisting of new and novel features, which surpasses any dog and pony show In the United States. Seibel Bros, are in the field with new offerings entirely, with the exception of the spectacular fifty pony ill and the monkey barber shop. Both of these acts have been seen before Seibel Bros.' entered the field, but have always proven such big hits that it was decided to place them In the program.", With these exceptions, however, according to the press agent, every act is absolutely new. Seibel Bros, make a specialty of a children's riding academy, which is not a part of the performance proper, but for which no charge is made. Every child attending the performance will be taught the first principals of riding by an expert director. Fifty Shetland ponies are placed in commission, and each one is bridled and saddled and placed in charge of a competent and obliging attendant. The show has the smallest drove of Shetland ponies in the world. Out of the lot numbering 75, not a single one will weigh over 300 pounds, and the smallest pair among them weigh less than 100 pounds apiece. WANTS TO COLLECT $250 THE PRICE FOR A PICTURE Likeness of Late John A. Craft Which Was to Have Been Printed In the Henry County History Law Suit Results Because of the Unpaid fee. Palladium Special. Shelbyville, May 23. To collect $230 the price which the late John A. Craft, of Henry county agreed to pay George Hazzard, publisher of a "History of. Henry County," the latter has brought suit and the case changed to Shelby county. In a contract, a copy of which Is attached to the complaint, the late John A. Craft agreed to pay $250 for his photograph in a "seven pltte Illustration ,of the soldiers of Co. A. Seventh Ind.," in a "History of Henry County, (military edition) similar In size and arrangement to the one page illustration of U. S. Grant in Blaine's 'Twenty Years of Congress, in vignette half tone witb biographical sketch of self and family." The subject of the sketch and photograph died before the bill was paid, and after the book had Been piTTKished. In the settlement of the leslate, Frank Craft, who had been appointed executor of the will, disallowed the claim on the grounds that the price wis exorbitant. The suit followed. ,J? fEATS.

Lieutenant Colonel Margetts , who is to visit Richmond on May 80th, has held the position of National Young People's Secretary for the last five years In the Salvation Army. During the past year he traveled over 2700 miles in organizing and inspecting the Young People's' work In Lieut. Col. Margetts. the U. S. The Colonel is a magnetic and forceful speaker, both pathetic and humorous, and a good musiclal and soloist. He will lecture the night of the 30th at Grace M. E. church, on the subject "Is a Child Worth Saving? An Interesting ceremony will also take place on that occasion. All are welcome. This city has never previously been visited by an officer holding as high rank in the S. A. as Is Col. Margetts. They Eat AIon. The Maldivian islanders eat alone. Before a meal they retire to the most secluded spot they can find and eat with drawn blinds or surrounded by a screen. The explanation of this precaution Is more likely to be fear than modesty. In days gone by the savage no doubt concealed himself lest some man stronger than he should snatch his hard earned food away. Colnmbu. The entire fleet of Columbus was worth only $3,000, and the explorer's salary was $300 a year. Cave of the Bines.

A $12 Dog Cause of "Rube's" Injury. Publishers' Press Philadelphia, Pa., May 23. "Night Wuxtra! All about Waddell's broken thumb." That was the wail that reached the heart. "Rube" is out of the game with a busted feeler. It is his left thumb, too. He'll . wear his blooming thumb in splints for ten days or two weeks, and all on account of a $12 dog. Rube purchased the dog for a friend in Boston. At noon today he chartered a rig and set out to collect the dcg. Somewhere on Ridge avenue a delivery wagon on the wrong side of the street collided with the Waddell rig. Jumping out to tick the driver, "Rube" left his valuable thumb in the whip socket, but kept on jumping, and cracked the said thumb at the second joint. The driver got licked Just the same. "Rube" was perfectly sober and the accident was no fault of his own, but the dog's. All of which leads to the remark that "Rube" should not be allowed In vehicle other than the perambulator with a trained nurse at the push bar. Owing to long practice "Rube" will be able to eat his peanuts right handed.
