Hearing so much about the fame of Richmond and its resourcefulness in the educational world, a party of teachers from Muncie and Gaston, Delaware county, yesterday assumed the "show me" attitude and came to this city for a thorough inspection of the schools, and particularly the Garfield manual training: department. As Richmond has the only complete kindergarten system in the state, running in conjunction with the public schools, this feature of the work also received the attention of the pedagogues, who pronounced it ideal. The teachers composing the party from Muncie, were Misses Jackson, Bessie Smithson, Helen Servess. Belle Thomas. Messrs. Alva Dillon, Charles Kerlin, Charles Van Tress, J. M. Fenwic kand Charles Lambert. The Gaston party was composed of Misses Susan Powers, Florence "Welling, and Bessie Lee; Messrs. Ray Meyers, Charles Browning:, Earl Browning. Byril Kerlin. George Hayden, W. A. Broyles and J. F. Heyders. When a Muncie teacher was approached, and asked as to what he thought of the Richmond school system, he stated: "Well, of course it would be natural for me to say that the Muncie schools were best, but, well-ah-ah-well, you know as well as I do that Richmond has us beaten on many things, the kindergarten for instance." Knowing that their school system was smaller than that of Richmond, the Gaston teachers were not so conservative, and they were loud in their praises of the school system in this city, so far as they had time to inspect it.

m STORM DESTROYS E. C. Wind Totally Wrecks Big Pavillion on Reid Field at Quaker Institution. YOUNGSTER HURT BY IT CHARLES HARRIS IN THE STAND WHEN CRASH CAME THREE OTHERS WITH HIM ESCAPED WITHOUT INJURY. Charles Harris the young son of Granville Harris, of 135 Chestnut street, was very painfully injured yesterday afternoon at Earlham College, and is suffering with three broken ribs and a dislocated shoulder. It is feared that he is internally injured. All was cavised by the total destruction of the grand stand on Reid Field, by the terrific wind storm which swept over the city about one o'clock yesteray afternoon. Young Harris and three other boys had been hunting in the woods, about a mile south of the college and were returning' to their homes Ty the way of Earlham, when the wind and rain storm caught them unawares. As they had done many tiroes before, when caught in the rain at the college they took refuge under the large grandstand which sat on the north side of Reid Field. They had been under this shelter but a short time, when a teriffic gust of wind swept the grandstand to the ground causing a total ruin, and pinning young Harris under it. How the three other boys accompanying Harris escaped, is not known, and after the accident occurred they could hardly tell how it happened. Construction Helped Wind. Owi; to the peculiar manner in which the grandstand was constructed it was a very easy matter for the wind completely wreck it. One of the boys stated after the accident that they were standing near an entrance under the grand stand, when a huge gust of wind came along and the building began to creak and snap, and just at that time when the building was under its worst strain, another heavier gale struck it and the building went crashing to the ground falling north of the fence, which surrounds the athletic field. "Wild rumors were circulated among the students when the news first reached their ears that the grandstand was a wreck. It was reported on all sides that a boy had been killed in the accident, and even though the boys who figured iu the episode told the collegians who came rushing to the rescue, that there were no more boys in the crowd, they set to work among the heavy timbers and lighter debris in order to rescue the injured. The pleas of the boys finally had its effect, upon the frightened Earlhamites and they ceased in their search. "When matters had once more assumed their even tenor, many of the boys and young ladies of the college went about gathering up pieces of wood that they might keep souvenirs of the old grandstand, in which they had set many times to cheer the Quaker teams to victory, and around which hung so many al most sacred associations. When new, the grandstand cost the j Quaker school in the neighborhood of : . . u, i iuiaun man mill anjpuui. owing to the age of the stmcture.

COURT DISMISSED MRS. FITZSIMMOIIS
- Judge Converse Decided that! Evidence of Child Alone Was Not Sufficient. THE DEFENDANT'S ALIBI SHE TOLD COURT THAT SHE WAS INSIDE HER ROOM WHEN LITTLE LEON A DRULEY WAS KNOCKED DOWN. Mrs. John Fitzsimmons, who faced the city judge yesterday morning on the charge of using some of "Lanky Bob's" tactics upon little Miss Leona Druley, the twelve-year-old daughter of Herbert E. Druley, of North 20th street, was acquitted on the charge of assault and battery. The evidence of the prosecution was given mostly by the child, who stated that as she was passing the Fitzsimmons home last Friday, Mrs. Fitzsimmons ran out of the house and onto the sidewalk, striking her in the back and knocking her to the ground. The story of the child was given in a straightforward man ner and the severe cross examinations administered, could not shake her story. Mrs. Fitzsimmons said that at the time -which the prosecution stated that she rushed out onto the sidewalk and struck the girl, she (Mrs. Fitzsimmons) was about her household duties, and did not see the Druley girl pass. Her husband was also called to the stand, and he stated that although he was not' in company with his wife during all of the afternoon when the alleged assault occurred, he stated that he would swear that his wife had been in the house during the whole afternoon, as she had several household duties which she was attending to. Prosecutor Jessup, in his plea to the court, stated that it was either the girl's or the woman's veracity that had to be decided upon. Attorney P. J. Freeman, who represented Mrs. Fitzsimmons, has taken exception to the statement that the Fitzsimmons family has a police record. According to Attorney Freeman, Mrs. Fitzsimmons has never been called before the court before. The notoriety secured by the family it seems has been principally due to the husband. . . ' INDEPENDENTS LIKELY RICHMOND MAY GET POLO Some of the Coliseum Directors are x irvT-avor or Having oiarence jessup Organize Team to Play Indepen dent Organizations. There is a possibility, and it may also be said a probability that Richmond people will be afforded an opportunity to see at least a few roller polo games this winter that will be worth the name. It is known that some of the directors of the Richmond Athletic Association favor the organization of an independent polo team that might play weekly games ith teams from Hamilton and other cities and thus keep alive interest in the sport. It is probable that a pretty stiff lineup could be secured, with Cunningham, Jr., and Houghton as rushers, Parry, half back, Jessup goal and a center to be chosen. Little doubt is entertained ..that by another year interest in polo will swing back to Indiana and the sport will be restored to its old time splendor with Richmond in the fore front, for Rich mond is the home of roller polo in tho I West. ! The Coliseum will be opened for ! skating at Thanksgiving . time and ' this style of amusement promises to be very xpular through the winter. Those directors who favor the organization of a polo team are convinced : that the addition of a polo game once a week would go a long way toward securing the patronage of those who do not care to skate but who would jump at an opportuntiy to see a real polo game. PREPARING PLANS FOR THE WEST SIDE SEWER The city engineers are at the present time preparing the plans for the new west side sewer system, which will be installed next Spring. The plans are just practically begun and it will require several weeks before they can be completed. Owing to the large territory which the system will cover, the work is about the most difficult that the engineers have encountered for some time. As the authorities at Earlham College have not as yet expressed their willingness to install a system which will be connected with the city line, plans for this section of the sewer will not be drawn by ths city engineer. CONTRACT LET FOR PLACING LARGE LIGHTS The contract for setting the large brass lights upon the parapet!?, on the Federal building, was j'esterday leJr to Zoller and Craighead and the ork began at once. When complete Ihe work will greatly beautify the exterior of the building. The local electrical firm also secured the contract for placing the desk lights on the interior of the building.

1 MUCH DAMAGE WAS DONE Light and 'Phone Companies Suffered while wind Left its Mark in Many Places Over Blown Down. City Bill Boards The wind storm which swept over the city and county yesterday afternoon, was the worst that has occurred in several years, and much damage was done. All the telephone, telegraph and light wires of the city were damaged to a small extent. No serious losses are .reported from this source, although the damage done caused some trouble and embarrassment to the companies operating them. In addition to the grandstand accident at Earlham, which involved a loss of probably three hundred dollars, the large bill board near Eleventh on the south side of Main street, was blown over in the sidewalk, and had it not been that there were few pedestrians walking during the terrific downpour of rain, some person probably would have met wivh injury. The farmers coming into the city last night, stated that great damage had been done to the fences in their various localities. The rail or oldfashioned "worm" fences were laid to the ground. Those farmers who are still husking corn, will also be delayed in their work, owing to the fact that in the district visited by the wind, the stalks are laid to the ground. Although coming at the season of the year when it could not cause great financial loss to the farmers, it will mean much work. New Station at Dunreith. New Castle, Ind Nov. 21. (Spl.) One of the most noteworthy improvements to the town in years is the newcombination station and power-house now being completed by the Indianapolis & Eastern Traction Company at Dunreith. The building is a commodious one and the finishing touches are now being put on. It is of brick, with a red tile roof. Broad cement walks have been laid on two sides. The interior is nicely arranged, and the waiting-room and ticket offices are ready for occupancy. ' The substation portion is now being completed, and the entire building will be occupied by the first of the coming year. Palladium Want Ads Pay.

T ACCEPT SIDEWALK WORK IS UNSATISFACTORY Upon Recommendation of City Engineer Board of Works Refuses to Pay Contractor Schneider for Cement Work on North Ninth. Upon the recommendation of City Engineer Charles, the -new cement sidewalk on North Ninth street was not accepted by the Hoard of Public Works which yesterday refused to make a settlement with Contractor Schneider. According to Mr. Charles tiie walk f the East side of the street, near the Masonic Temple, is uneven. The Board of Works told Mr. Schneider that under no circumstances would it accept the work as it stands, but if the trouble could be remedied, according, to contract the Board would then settle. Owing to the fact that bad "cement weather" has arrived it is probable the changes will not begin until next spring. Contractor ; Schneider cou)H not account for the oversight on the part of his workmen, in making the walk contrary to the specifications.
