GREAT CROWD EXPECTED PECULIARITIES OF THIS RELIGIOUS DENOMINATION WHICH HAS MANY FOLLOWERS IN THIS SECTION OF STATE. Many German Baptists, or Dunkards as they commonly are called, from Wayne county and Eastern Indiana left yesterday for Springfield, 111., to attend the international conference of the denomination. From 20,000 to 60,000 people will attend the conference, and there will be delegates from France, Sweden, England, India and almost all the European countries. No question of very great Importance will come before the convention, as the divorce question, which had been engrossing the attention of the sect, was settled at the last convention. The German Baptist denomination Is one of the communistic sects that arose from the chaos immediately succeeding the great religious reformation in Germany in the sixteenth century, and has preserved intact many of the peculiar tenets of its founders. The members of the church are marked by the peculiar garb of both men and women and many queer ceremonies are-observed by the church. Among them are the annointing of the lick with oil by the . leaders of the church, trine Immersion in baptism, the lovo feast preceding the holy communion and the kiss of peace. The members of the church will wear no Jewelry and are noted for their thrift and Industry, conducting their own almshouses and caring for their own poor. The Dunkards have been one of the most Important factors in the colonization of new territory and the rich farm lands In various parts of the Dakotas and the west owe their cultivation to the untiring energies of this most peculiar religious sect FIGHTING FOR TRAFFIC D. & W. VS. PAN HANDLE Both Roads Will Give Special Rates Next Sunday to Dayton Traction Company Charges $1, Steam Road Seventy-Five Cents. Steam will compete with electricity in popularity next Sunday, in an excursion from Richmond to Dayton, and from present indications, it seems as if the Pennsylvania is about to start a fight with the competing electric lines for Sunday business. For the first time, a Sunday excursion will bo run to Dayton, and the rate will be 75 cents for the round trip, or twenty-five cents less than is charged by the electric roads. . The steam road contends that it gives the fastest time and the cheaper rate. The Interurban roads argues that its' cars run every hour, run earlier and later than the steam road's special train and are free from smoke and dust upon steam road trips It will be interesting to note which road draws the heavier.

President Kelly is now out of the city, having gone to Kansas and Governor Hadley has been left in charge of the situation. He was pressed for a statement on the course he would pursue. Governor Hadley said that he did not care to make known his policy in the matter but assured the questioner that there would be no heads chopped last night.

At the regular monthly meeting of the Commercial Club last evening, there was no business of importance aside from hearing the report of the special committee selected some weeks ago to be on the general committee to investigate the municipal lighting and power plant. The report t)f this committee was read in full and approved by the Club. The members expressed themselves as in favor of retaining the plant and of increasing it, if necessary. The matter was discussed thoroughly. The meeting was of a secret nature and none but members wer eadmltted. It is understood that the Club has several new Industries in mind for Richmond and for the present, the names of the companies will not be made public. CONUNDRUM ANSWERED USE OF THE LIGHT FUND Money Derived From Municipal Light Plant Is Being Used by the City From Time to Time and Draws No Interest There Mr. Bartel. Councilman Bartel. who Is a mem ber of the "Show Me Club" asked in council Monday night a seemingly Innocent question but which proved to be one of great embarrassment. Mr. Bartel's interrogation was "what is done with the money in the Municl pal Light plant fund?" Two or three officials looked wise, hummed and hawed, but no answer was made. Mr. Bartel also wanted to know if the money was drawing inter est and if it wasn't, whynot? A mem ber of the board of works was asked the Bartel conundrum last night and he replied that the plant had not yet paid back all the money it had bor rowed from the city, and that the city was drawing on the fund from time to time. At the present time there Is about $23,000 in the fund but it is drawing no interest. This same condi tion of affairs existed in- the days when the management of the plant was in the hands of the municipal light plant committee. WILL HEAR COMPLAINTS Board of Pubtlo Works Will Listen to Protests Against Closing 14th Street Today. The board of public works will to day hear all complaints on the closing of North Fourteenth street from E street to the P., . C. & St. L. right of way, so that the Hoosier Drill Branch of the American Seeding Machine Company can enlarge its plant No complaints had been received by the board -up to yesterday, but it is expected that one or two manufacturers whose busness will be effected by the closing of the street will file com plaints. It is- the general - opinion that the . . board . . will overrule these complaints, in which case another date will ' be set for receiving all claims for damages. It is 'probable that the Hoosier Drill will be in 'a position to start work "on the enlarge ment of the plant by the first of July.

REVIEW MADE OF THE YEAR'S WORK

President Kelly, in Chapel Talk Sums Up What Earlham Has Accomplished. ENROLLMENT INCREASED BUILDING DEBT HAS BEEN LIQUI DATED AND THE ENDOWMENT IS ON WAY TO HOPED FOR MILLION DOLLAR MARK. In his last appearance in chapel this year, President Robert L. Kelly, of Earlham College, yesterday morning addressed the students in a sort of farewell manner, and commented on the work that has been done at the college during the past year the best year, he said, that the institution has ever known. President Kelly talked in a very optimistic strain of the prospects of Earlham for next year and during succeeding years. He showed what he has done during his adminintration as head of the institution and that he has brought its standing to the top among Indiana seats of learning. Much improvement is noted in the courses, building and equipment as well as in the standing, since Pres. Kelly took charge, and he predicts that the future will be just as bright. Some of the important happenings since President Kelly took charge of the school and which show what advancement has been made were recalled in his talk. He took charge of the college three years ago. Since then the building debt of $25,000 has been liquidated; the enrollment has increased from 241 to 445: the Department of Education has been established, and an effort begun to increase the Endowment, which Is now over a quarter of a million, to a round million of dollars. The great transformation of attitude of Richmond people to the school was shown. Day students are among the ablest and most loyal in the College and the first Earlham Annual was issued by them. The Intercollegiate peace conference was brought to Earlham: an interurban station was erected: and buildings and campus lighted with electricity. Long strides have been made toward getting a perfectly ecuipped library. The Carnegie fund is now possible, hundreds of dollars are being received annually for library maintenace; and only recently, Earlham got possession 6f the library of the late Joseph Elklnton, consisting of 2,000 volumes, besides 1,000 pamphlets. The work of Earlham graduates, in the field of literature and learning, was shown. Some students have received good positions in the engineering departments of railroads and others are meeting with success along other lines. Altogether, the address was one of praise for Earlham's record during the past three years, and the outlining of the fine opportunities the school will have for future advancement. CIVIC LEAGUE'S WORK LECTURES ARE PLANNED Fairview's Organization to Hear the Subject of Civic Improvements Discussed From all Possible Points of View.

The life of the Anderson baseball team is" hang ing by a small thread. The games to day and tomorrow will tell whether or not the team will be disbanded at once. The games have been transferred to the fair ground diamond. There were S00 people at yesterday's game and the conditions were ideal. Lack of interest is also said to prevail at Marion. If one of these clubs leaves the league its death. I heleved to be certain. . "

HAVE PURCHASED D.lli.

BIG TRACTION DEAL MADE Company Which is to Build Rival Traction Line from Here to Dayton Has Secured Stretch of Fine Track in Ohio. The traction syndicate, represented in Indiana by Hugh McGowan, and in Ohio, by W. Kelsey Schoepf, has bought the Dayton & Northern Traction company, which operates fortythree miles between Dayton and Greenville, and parallels the Dayton Union railway between those points. The deal for the Dayton & Northern was closed last week and the syndicate has assumed control. It has not been announced on what basis the property was obtained by the McGow-an-Schoepf-Morgan crowd. At Greenville the Dayton & Northern connects with the Dayton & Muncie, which is controlled by the syndicate. The syndicate will build a new line from Dayton to Richmond, which will be four miles shorter than that traveled by the Dayton & Western, which line the syndicate tried to buy. The price .said to have been $3,000,000 proved a barrier. It was learned yesterday that Mr. McGowan-and Mr.i,Schoepf are making plans on a large scale to carry to lncinnati all the traction lines run ning to Dayton, and many of those op erating in . this state. According to plans under consideration it is pro posed to take the interurban cars into Cincinnati over the Cincinnati, Dayton & Toledo Traction Company's tracks. The C, D. & T. will ask the City Council of Cincinnati for the right to lay addtional tracks in order that the cars may be run into the center of the city without the necessity of changing at Spring Grove avenue is the case at present CLAIM KIBBEYS PLAY ROWDY BALL East Haven Manager Files Protest Against Little Haberdashers. HILL IS FOR CLEAN BALL President of City League Orders Um pires to Put any Disturber Out of Game The Klbbey's Protests Were Overruled. At a meeting of the managers and officials of the City League the protests of the Kibbey team on their games with the East Havens and the Pan Handles were considered. After investigating the charges made by the Kibbey manager both protests were thrown out. In the East Haven game the Kibbeys claimed that more than four East Haven players were on the base line when one of the Kibbey players was run down between bases They also complained of a decision of Umpire Slack in declaring Pitcher Jeffries of the East Havens safe at home plate. The first charge was not considered because there is no rule In the rule book which states how many men can be on a base line when a base runner Is being run down be tween bases. The second charge was overruled because the umpire's decis ion made no material difference in the outcome of the game. The Kibbeys protested the Panhandle game because they charged Pitcher Ridge of the Panhandles was a professional and not employed by the Panhandle railroad. The managers decided that Ridge was not a professional and that it was not necessary for-a player to be a member of team which represented some company, concern or institution in the city league. After the decisions of the managers on these two protested games had been made the manager of the East Haven team filed a charge of rowdy playing against the Kibbey team and stated that if the league did not call a halt on the Kibbeys all the games the East Havens have scheduled with that team would be canceled. President Hill told the East Haven mana gers that he would ' instruct all City League umpires to order any player who acted in a rowdy way out of the game and If he persisted in his ac tions, to order him off the field." It is thought that rowdy ball will be stopped by clothing the umpires with this authority. SECURE GOOD POSITIONS Students Graduating in Department of Engineering at Earlham Get Fine Places. Prof. Sackett of Earlham, has secured good positions for those students taking civil engineering under him.
