HURTY LAST NIGHT OCCUPIED THE ATTENTION OF CONFERENCE WITH LECTURE ON "THE WHITE PLAGUE." Muncie., Intl., Oct. 8. (Spl.) The larger and better' ounce of prevention is the demand of the Indiana Conference of Charities and Corrections wnicn mis morning oegan us mteeniii annual discussion of the state's needs In dealing wi her 83,3155 . delinquents, dependants and defectives. The seven or eight hundred men and women gathered here, who are either in the management or are the moral force behind the State, county, township or municipal organizations and institutions for the -care or detention of this great army of unfortunates show a decided tendency to demand that the pound be of prevention. The sieakers advocate the theory that if prevention is anywhere near complete the number of defectives at least, and they are the State's most serious charges, will rapidly decrease instead of increasing, as is now the case under, the application of the ounce of prevention and pound of cure. Tenor of the Addresses. Nine-tenths of the fifty or sixty speeches and talks made today, were pleas for laws and organizations for the removal of conditions that make criminals and dependants and fill poorhouses and jails, and for laws that will terrify those who now contribute to the delinquency of children. More than ever this year great stress is being laid on beginning with the children that are born and seeing to it that by confinement, segregation for for life or by sterilization, habitual criminals, confirmed paupers and mental defectives do not . bring forth defectives and lay a burden on humanity and the State in the future. The conference was opened formally Saturday night with an address by President Whittaker and yesterday Muncie pulpits' were occupied by visitors, and Governor Hanly addressed a crowd at the opera house, but the real work and discussions began this morning. Tonight Dr. J. N. Hurty made a speech for the prevention and cure of consumptives and tomorrow will be given to the problems of State, "county and township charities. Have Gone to Muncie. Charles rotter, 'Wayne township" ii usirt, iuu iiuniii vernier vieorge Bishop, left for Muncie yesterday afernoon. where they will attend the conference of State Charities and Corrections. The meetings will adjourn this afternoon. Mr. Totter will go on to Chicago, where he will attend to several business matters. Cat Amuses the Baby. Elkhart. Ind., Oct. S. (Spl.) A cat in the household of William Jamison shows unusual attention to the babe of the family and faithfully lays at the child's feet every mouse she catches. The other day she captured a rat, which she did not kill before she brought it to the child and allowed the rodent to scamper away several times, recapturing it each time as though to impress the babe with her skill. Members ofthe family in an adjoining room room heard the sounds of the baby's glee, and investigated, discovering what was going on.

RICHMOND GETS ANOTHER CARRIER

Request of Postmaster Spekenhier for a Larger Force of Carriers is Partially Granted-Local Mail Men Are

Now Doing Very n & ft:.-, E. A. DICKINSON A MODERN "SANTA CLAUS."

by carriers throughout the country was being exceeded greatly. The accompanying illustration is from a snap shot taken of Ed. A. Dickinson, carrier No. 5, as he emerged from the postiffice one morning during "weighing week." As will be readily "seen Carrier Dickinson resembles Santa Claus and if he had the wealth of beard that the real Santa has. the deception would be complete. The sack of mail carried and which is shown, weighed 70 pounds. All other carriers had approximately the same sort of burdens to carry. Naturally progress is much slower under such at load of mail and therefore as carriers are permitted to put in but eight hours a day, the routes covered have been found to be too large for efficient service. It is believed that the department will give Richmond still another carrier before many months elapse. The new addition to the force will be Edgar F. Mote, who has served as a substitute for two years past. .It is likely that changes will be made in several routes though just what will be done relative to redistricting has not been determined. The new carrier likely will be assigned" to the west side.

MOTHER SAVES HER BABE WAS SNATCHED OFF TRACK Monster Engine Was Bearing Down on the Little One, at the Rate of Fifty Miles an Hour ireman Was Ready to Risk His Life. Marion, Jnd., Oct. 8. (Spl.) While Mrs. John Lafferty, of this city, was visiting in Herbst yesterday, she barely saved the life of her three-year-old daughter, who escaped from the yard at the home in which she was visiting. The child sat down in the middle of the Toledo, St. Louis & Western railroad tracks, where she played with the pretty little stones that she found in abundance. The whistle of an approaching train caused the mother to think of her daughter, whom she saw sitting on the track. The fireman on the locomotive also saw the child as the train rounded a curve and was bearing down on it at, the rate of fifty miles an hour. It was impossible tto stop the train and the fireman hurriedly climbed out of his cab and made his way to the pilot for the purpose of attempting to rescue it. The mother, unmindful of danger, ran to the little girl, siezed her and leaped from the track just as the train went thundering past. The force of the train almost swept Mrs. Lafferty from her feet, but she escaped uninjured " and saved her daughter. The name of the fireman who attempted to save the child, and would probably have done so, is unknown, but Mr. Lafferty is making an effort to learn his name and will reward him for? his heroic effort. Arrange Extension Work. The work of the organization of the teachers' extension coursees of Earlham college, will probably be completed this week, and the assignments for work will be made. The work will be so arranged that those that enroll for the work, and pass in it, will be given the same credit as the students enrolled at the college.

Postmaster Spekenhier has been formally notified by the postiffice department at Washington that an addition to the letter carrier force of the Richmond postoffice has been de cided upon. Postmaster Spekenhier immediately after assuming the duties of the office took up the matter of increasing the force of carriers, realizing that unless additions were made it would be impossible to give the service which the patrons of the office are entitled to; Two carriers it; was believed, and it is still believed are necessary to properly equalize the routes of the carriers, and as a whole increase the efficiency of the service. Formal application was made to the department for additional carriers and this was backed by much evidence of the necessity, for suchi an increase. Recently the mail that was carried from the office by the force for an entire week was weighed daily, showing that the average amount of mail taken out of offices, NO TURKISH AMBASSADOR UNITED STATER SLIGHTED State Department Anxious that. His Highness,"The Royal Deadbeat," Should Send Something Higher than Minister Here. Washington, Oct. 8. It is a unique diplomatic situation that America should be represented by an ambassador at the court of a European country while that country Is represented in Washington by a minister. That, however, is now the situation. John G. A. Leishman is American ambassador to Turkey and Chekib Bey is the minister of Turkey to this capital. It Is not known here whether it be the intention cf the sultan or not to raise Chekib Bey to the rank of an ambassador or to appoint some other diplomat of that rank, for service in Washington, but it would afford great satisfaction to the state department if he should do so.

ENGLAND MAY LOSE ANOTHER. COLONY

Feeling Between Crown and New Foundland is Far from Being Friendly. FRICTION IS HEIGHTENED FISHING AGREEMENT MADE BY KING'S MINISTERS WITH UNITi ED STATES CONTRARY TO THE f iEW FOUNDLAND LAWS. Washington, D. C, Oct. S. Official confirmation has reached the state department from United States Ambassador; Reld, at London, of the acceptance by the British government of the modus vivendi which is to govern the fishing by American fishernment ofLthe coast of New Foundland for the present season. A reported disruption of the New Foundland government may, in the opinion of officials here, have seriousresults. It is even hinted that it may be but the precursor of a movement for the separattion of New Foundland from the British Crown which thus lose one of its troublesome but valuable assets. In the fishing disputes between NewFoundland and the United States the British government has been placed in a most embarrasing posittion.The New Foundland government has been trying for some years, by the adoption of inimical legislation, to absolutely destroy all the rights of American fishermen which were guar anteed by the treaty of 1818. The British government has been trying to act fairly in thernatter with the United States while at the same time desiring to do nothing to offend or alienate the New Foundlanders. The particular reasons that are now impelling the merchant class, in control of the New Foundland govern ment, to threaten its disruption are that the modus vivendi, agreed to by Great. Britain, contains provisions that American fishermen may use purse seines which -they claim to be necessary for successful fishing, and that they may employ NewFoundland fishermen. . Both of these things are expressly ' prohibited by laws passed by the New Foundland legislature. Tnat the home government, in London, should over reach their local laws is galling to the New Foundland ers. They know, too, that Great Britain will never resort to force again to keep one of her colonies, that so desires, from asserting -her independence so the New Foundlanders are acting in a very arrogant fashion.

DOME'S LATEST SCHEME WILL RAISE A MILLION Announcement Made in Small Church in Chicago that John Alexander Had a Vision in Which He( Was Told to Make Such an Attempt. Chicago, Oct. S. John Alexander Dowie's plan for a Mexican colony was abandoned in obedience to a command received by Dowie in a vision that came to him last 'Friday night and lasted five hours, according to an announcement made by Beacon Arlington, one of Dowie's followers who ha remained 103-al to the deposed prophet. The scheme, Deacon Arrington said, was relinquished in favor of another that contemplates the raising of $1,000,000 in Chicago for the purpose of restoring Dowie's power and prestige.

A joint convention cf the American National Livestock association, the Cattle Raisers' association and the Corn Belt Meat Producers' association was held here and plans were discussed for stcuring a better foreign market for American livestock products The call for the convention says in part: It is of great importance to the livestock Industry that more extended foreign markets be secured in order to dispose of our increasing surplus of meat products and insure good prices for our livestock at home.
