Judging from the great outburst of Bpplause which greeted Senator DolJiver's remarks at the Chautauqua Vii3 week, in regard to the local Y. l. C. A. movement it is Quite evident that Chas. H. Iirown the nate organizer for Oh'o, who is here to organize an association for Richmond, has the zood wMl of the Community in his undertaking which means that the people 'will do their utmost tp further an organization of the kind in Richmond. Selecting His Committee. Mr. Drown is working almost night and day in order to get his list of committees from the shops, churches and business houses completed and it will only be a matter of a few weeks until an active campaign will he begun for the raising of the necessary funds. Committees composed of employes of the many shops and stores of Richmond will be formed to carry on the work among the men of their own institutions. Mr. Brown stated yesterday that he has been given the greatest encouragement wherever he has gone, both from the employes themselves and the employers. He says he could have not wished for better treatment although a few employers have expressed themselves as against the movement Thi3, however, does not discourage Mr. Brown in his work. Experience at Dayton. In relating, incidents which surrounded the rebuilding ' of the Y. M. C. A. at Dayton, Mr. Drown stated that almost every one in town contributed to the fund of that Association when a new home was needed. "Not only the rich but the poor contributed and the widows mite was accepted as cheerfully as any of the larger offerings. He said that poor washerwomen and servant girls gave 9s high as $25 of their earnings toward the new building, because they realized what a great benefit it was to the young men of Dayton. They arere acquainted with the work and were aware of the great improvement wrought in the lives of many 7oung men. Dopes. .. . .-..o ijividend. Pittsburg, Pa., A us. 23.

Styles for Fall Vill Soon be Shown And Husbands Will be "Touched"

in the Same Old Way When the Openings are held a Few Weeks Hence. The Richmond milliners are already hieing themselves away to the city markets to select their fall stocks of hats and the male population can get ready to be touched, for wifey must have a new hatThis fall brings with it a large va riety of new stiies, and marks a de viation from the somber colors that heretofore have been shown for fall and winter use. Persian ribbons, velvets in bright colors and Scotch plaids with light shades of green, tan, melon, cerise, bright red, brown, garnet and grey will predominate. The metal ornaments will be in gold, silver and gunmetal. Flowers and prints in light colors and of large size will be used. Birds will be used more than ever before, but in deference to the Audubon society, will all be artificial creations, which approximate the real article so ciosely that they may result in a protest by bird lovers. Rhinestone ornaments are used largely, as are several varieties of large headed pins, the heads of which are mere than an inch in length and half an inch in diameter. The season has already been termed a "color season" by those in the millinery trade. The demand for what are known as "picture hats" is greater than ever before, and the Gajnsboroughs, mushroom, tambourine and Scotch cap shapes are popular. There is a new style feather that will be much used this season, known as the "Mavibaut." It is shorter than the ostrich plume and is uncuiied. It is said to produce a striking effect in connection with long feathers of the paradise bird. Aigrette and coque feathers will be much in ornamentation. THE OPENING OF THE CITY SCHOOLS September 17 is the Date Set By the School Board of . Richmond. KINDERGARTEN SYSTEM EVERY WARD IN CITY NOW HAS PUBLIC KINDERGARTEN, THE SYSTEM BEING MOST COMPLETE IN STATE. With an excellent corps of teachers and wth thoroughly cleaned and renovated buildings, the Richmond schools will open September 17. The prospects were never brighter and the year should mark an epoch in the city schools. Last year there were over 3,200 enrolled but it is thought that this number will be increased this year, although few additional pupils are expected at the high school, as the record there last year,' in point of attendance was the greatest in that school's history. New Kindergarten. Richmond is noted for the excellence of her public schools, but this year she will ascend to still greater heights, owing to the fact that a complete kindergarten system will be installed. Each ward school in the city will have a kindergarten for the little children. Richmond is the first town in the state of Indiana where a complete svstem of this kind has been established. The first kindergarten was established in Richmond about 1S90 and at that time some people were a little doubtful of the results but it proved a success. It was not until three years later that the second kindergarten was established, this time at the old Sevastopol school in Fairview. Since that time the system has grown until now Richmond can boast of being the lead ing city in Indiana along this special line of education. Improvements Ar- Made. The improvements which the school buildings have undergone during the summer months have greatly improved their exterior appearance as well as the interior. The High School. Garfield, Whitewater and Warner school buildings have all been repainted. The two latter schools have had complete heating plants installed. The fan blast system of ventilating with automatic temperature regulators will be used In these buildings. The assignment of teachers has not been made but the corps of over ninety teachers will be assigned to their places in the near future.

NEW ORDINANCE Former Richmond Man to be Taken Care of in Muncie Formerly Was Superintendent of the Muncie Municipal Electric Light Plant. Muncie, Aug. 25, (Spl.) Mayor Sherritt has signed the ordinance re cently adopted by the city council combining the office of the electrical inspector and is contemplating the ap pointment of Harry McCullough to the position. Mr. McCullough, until recently, was city electrical inspector while as acting as superintendent of the municipal lighting plant, but was thrown out of office when the city contracted with the Muncie Electric Light company to operate the street lamps. ' v The work of electrical inspector was then done by the superintendent of the electric light plant, without ad ditional salary. Now that the two positions of electrical inspector and inspector of weights and measures have been thrown together ,the office will pay $75 a month. REVIVES GIL'S CLAIM FINNIGAN IS IMMORTAL The "Scrap Book" for September Reviews the Humorous Production and Gives Some Information cf Gillilan Himself City Council Chamber the Place of Production. The issue of the "Scrap Book" for September has a page devoted to the poem, "Finnigin to Flannigan," written by Strickland W. Gillilan, formerly of this city. The magazine has the following matter accompanying the poem : "No bit of verse has had a wider publicity than has the one of "Finnigin to Flannigan," and no expression has been mre glibly and frequently used than the lines forming the climax and close of them. The poem was written when Mr. Gillilan was doing daily newspaper work as city editor of the Richmond (Ind.) Palladium, in 1S97. That the story had any foundation in fact, Mr. Gillilan vigorously denies. The jingle kept chasing itself through his head until he was compelled in selfdefense, to writ it, and 'get it out of his system.' " It might also be added to the above that this poem was written one night by Gillilan in the city council chamber, during a lax period in the legislative work of that body, and little did the author think at that time that it would be one of the means of making his name universally known and popular on the lecture platform. Ran Aground. Rotterdam, Aug. 25. While coming up the river the Holland American liner Niew Amsterdam, bound to this city from New York, grounded near Massluis.

Vice-President Spent Satururday With Booker Washington in Ohio.

WAS NOTABLE GATHERING ADDRESS MADE AT THE OPENING OF THE COLORED EDUCATIONAL AND INDUSTRIAL EXPOSITION AT GROVE CITY. Publishers' Press Columbus, u , .iug. 25. Vice President Charles W. Fairbanks, Governor Harris and Booker T. Washington, the noted colored educator, were the principal speakers at the opening cf the Colored Educational and Industrial exposition at the suburban village ol Grove City. Mr. Fairbanks said: "The importance of the work In which you are engaged can be better appreciated when we recall the fact that the black race constitutes more than 10 per eent of the entire population of the United States. There are over 9,600,000 negroes within our borders. The question which affects their welfare is not a transitory onx;, but is of permanent interest "This exposition is a hopeful sign, not only because it illustrates what the negro has been able to accomplish in the industrial arts in a comparatively few years, but it shows that ho appreciates the value of co-operation. There is much good to be derived by the co-operation of men in the advancement of their common welfare. "Our educational system is a broad and liberal one and there is no good reason why all of your children should not obtain a common school education and be better fitted thereby to make upright and useful citizens. "Build up the home an.d if you can not build one for yourself, do not pull down the one which your neighbor has built by his own industry and thrift. Make home a place where work is regarded honorable, where virtue is respected, where religion is revered, where patriotism abides, where knowledge is regarded as the only eal power. Though you encounter prejudice you should not be come disheartened. You should press on patiently, hopefully and courageously. "Education is not for the purpose of enabling you to get along without work, but to make your work count for the most. There is a vast amount of manual labor to be done. Do not get the perverted idea that manual work Is degrading. Always be ready to perform yonr full share of it. "A broad opportunity lies before the colored race. What it will become will depend upon what it does. In the final analysis, people advance only by virtue of their own effort." Governor Harris and Booker Washington followed with appropriate remarks, which were well received. Vice President Fairbanks left for Indianap olis at 9 p. m. Strikers Engage Police. Nuremberg, Bavaria, Aug. 25. Tha striking workmen of an automobile factory here committed excesses.

Spelling, Writing and Reading Need to be Drummed Into the Thinking Apparatus of the Pupil The "New Era" System of Slant Writing Now In Vogue.

Richmond has received copies of the "state manual and uniform course of study for the elementary schools." from Fasset A. Cotton, state superintendent - of public instruction, in which he lays special stress on reading, spelling writing. "Reading" he declares, "stands first in a course of study because it furnishes the key that unlocks the door to every other subject. "Spelling cannot bo taught incidentally. It must have the systematic attention of the teacher as a separate subject, and his constant care in all written work. While oral spelling is a helpful aid in fixing forms, it is generally conceeded that written spelling must receive the larger stress because the main use of spelling is in the writing language. The eye rather than the ear must be trained. In deed, correct spelling must be made an eye and muscle habit. The State Board of Education has adopted the "New Era System," of semi-slant writing. Teachers are cautioned to see that pupils do not learn bad forms of writing, and to see that they assume easy positions and gft the correct formation of the letters at the beginning. The object of teaching music in the schools is to give the pupil the power to sing by note, music of ordinary difficulty, and to develop the taste to enjoy musiq of the higher grades. The teacher is exhorted to take part in the singing in the school lesson, and to introduce new songs so that the exercises do not become tiresome. The course of study in all branches is outlined and these pamphlets, which will be sent to all the teachers are expected to be of great help to them in their work.

The recent discussions on both sides of ; the Atlantic on the possibility that Emperor William may visit the United States have not been treated seriously by the German press. Official circles do not attach importance to the emperor's, recently expressed wish to see America. It is admitted that it is one of his long cherished wishes, but it is -regarded as practically certain that it will remain only a wish. Chicago Swelters. Chicago, Aug. 25. The uncomfortable temperature of the 'early part of week, which was lessened somewhat Friday, returned again with the result that there were a number of deaths. The actual temperature was not so high as to cause discomfort by itself, but it was accompanied by a high degree of humidity, which produced much suffering. Property Loss at Valparaiso. Santiago, Chile, Aug. 25. A conservative estimate places the property loss at Valparaiso as a result of the earthquakes and fires at $200,000,000.
