BEST PLACE ON EARTH

ACCORDING TO MEMBERS. Literature Printed for Distri bution Pictures the Region Of the City Beyond the Riv er as a Veritable Paradise. The West Side Improvement asso ciation is on the boom and the energy the members of that body is showing to promote the interest of that section of the city, is being commended on all sides. Friday night at the association's meeting in the Baxter school, several matters pertaining to the beautifying and developing of that section of the city, to make it one of the most desirable residence secions, were taken up and thoroughly discussed. The West Side Association is now behind a campaign to rapidly populate the territory west of the river and put it in such condition as to make it really an attractive residence portion. To inaugurate this campaign all members of the association present at the meeting Friday night were given small cards bearing mottos and cate-" chisms that should be followed to pro mote West Richmond One of these cards says: If you desire to buy, build or rent a home you should come to West Rich-. mond, because 1 It is the most pleasant section. 2 It is the most beautiful section. 3 It is the most sanitary section. 4 It is the cleanest section. 5 It has the largest percentage of desirable citizens. 6 In short it is the most desirable residence section of the city. Another is a little catechism. Question. What is the West Rich mond Improvement Association? Answer. An organization of pro gressive citizens. Question. What is Its purpose? Answer. To improve and beautify West Richmond. Question. Who are eligible to membership? N - . Answer. All who are in sympathy with its objects. Question. What is West Richmond? Answer. The most desirable residence section of Richmond. Question. What is Richmond? Answer. The best city in Indiana. An Amendment Wanted. To accomplish the purposes the West Side association have in view, the members realize that that section of the city In any portion should not be aesthetically neglected, but kept in the best of condition so as to attract. The association decided to ask the councilmen from "across the river," to introduce an amendment to the prevailing ordinance to require property owners to keep dirt off the sidewalk. The amendment the West Siders would have is in the nature of a penalty to be assessed on all those who allow dirt to wash down over the walks and then allow it to lay there without making a move to e'ean it off. There are several sections in West Richmond which are affected in this manner and the association wants it entirely done away with. Earnest appeals were also made to the association members to cut the weeds on or adjacent to their properties. Trimming of trees was also impressed upon the members as being a needed process. There are several streets on the West Side which are overhung by low branches along the sidewalks and roadways. These are very bothersome and practically is this true in rainy weather, when pedestrians are required to walk beneath the dripping bows. The Riverside park proposition was not taken up and discussed at any length because the prime mover in this enterprise was the late Charles A. Francisco. Richard Sedgwick was elected to act as chairman of the nub- i

lie grounds and buildings committee, shal- who claimed violation of state succeeding Mr. Francisco. Mr. Sedg- laws in regard to speed, not recognizwick will serve until September when iinS the fact that this was a national the next election of the association j affair, and of such Importance that takes place.

He further maintained if a few of the other organizations went about the work of promoting the city's interest with the same zeal and progressiveness as do the West Siders, Richmond would advance with leaps and bounds.

THOMAS DRUDY WAS FINED IN CITY COURT Taxed $25 and Costs for Drawing a Weapon. THE FINE WAS STAYED. Thomas Drudy was assessed a fine of $25 and costs for his actions in the role of a "bold bad man" last Thursday evening, both at his own ' nome and at Snediker's grocery, on North Thirteenth street, when he threatened to shoot and cut up about everybody in the neighborhood. When Drudy was called into police court this morning he plead guilty to the lengthy charge of "carrying and openly drawing a dangerous weapon with the avowed purpose of injuring a fellow man," but Prosecutor Jessup had the witnesses in the case sworn ani the trial proceeded. It was shown that after Sherman White had refused g Drudy's daughter any more credit for groceries, Thomas became very angry and started toward the Snediker grocery in search of White's blood. He went into the store and began to "chew" with White and the latter told him to get out of his place of business. White took hold of his arm and took him to the sidewalk. Drudy then and there drew a long stilleto, which would have done a Bulgarian pirate credit, and told White that he intended to "stick it into his ribs.". A swarthy son of Italy then appeared upon the scene and grabbed Drudy and took the weapon from his hand. Drudy went home but was still on the war path. White closed the grocery and started South on Thirteenth street across the street and past Drudy's home. On seeing White approaching Drudy "sailed" into his home, his wife at his heels. Drudy grabbed a gun and started out of the house. White thinking that something was brewing turned and went back. Drudy with gun in hand left his home and started south to the railroad where he was apprehended by three Italians who again disarmed him. Officer Winters however had been apprised of the trouble and arrested Drudy. Drudy's fine was stayed by Will Reece. DISCLAIM THE ACTION OF CAMBRIDGE L Local Automobilists ,and Others Take Action.

-v- - RE10 ID LEEDS NO LONGER" ASSOCIATED Former Moves His Offices From 71 to 115 Broadway, Realty Building. WORKED LONG TOGETHER. MR. LEEDS, BECAUSE OF THAT HIS HEALTH IS PRACTICALLY RETIRES BUSINESS. FACT POOR, FROM New York, July 20. Here is a bit of information that will interest peo- ! pie in most parts of America, especjially those of the railway guild and i folks about Richmond, in the Iloosier state. Daniel G. Reid and William B. Leeds are to be no longer connected in their daily office lives, as has been their wont ever since they started but in Chicago. After Mr. Reid and Mr. Leeds, with the Moore brothers, had cleaned up tremendous fortunes in tin plate they decided to take a hand in things financial in the metropolis. They had been friends most since boyhood in the old Indiana town. This friendship became stronger as they grew into young manhood, and Mr. Reid became e. bank cashier and Mr. Leeds was looking after the interests of the Pennsylvania road at Richmond. Then when they decided that there was a great field in manufacturing tin plate and combining the interests of industries in that line, they worked .hand in glove and made the center of their field of labors, Chicago. There they brought into association with themselves the brothers Moore. Before they got through Mr. Reid and Mr. Leeds had carved out fortunes of $25,000,000 each. Then they became interested in other great affairs, among them the Rock Island railroad system. They deemed it best to open out in New York. Consequently a handsomely furnished suit was fitted up at Xo. 71 Broadway. There Mr. Reid's old Richmond and Indiana friends spent many hours with him socially, and there, too, many big financial ventures were put under vay. But things have changed. Mr. Leeds, it is known, had an open rupture with the Moores. It has often been related that things Mere not moving as smoothly either as in the past with Reid and Leeds. Be that as it may, Mr. Reid has moved his offices to No. 115 Broadway, the Realty Building. There also In future will be located the offices of the Rock Island Railroad company, and there, too, the Moorea will hold forth. The signs of Mr. Reid and Mr. Leeds have been taken down at No. 71 Broadway, and the suit that knew them so long will know them no longer. Mr. Leeds, however, may continue to keep an office at the old number, but he has practically retired from all business because of poor health. Harry Thornburg, John Shroyer, Geo. Cole, E. McGuire. M.

A visit to the Border Bolt and Lock Nut factory shows conditions greatly improved ;more machinery, a larger building and more men at work. The new managers are a clever set of men. Numerous orders are causing them to run over hours. William Conkle took a number of Kodak pictures while at the picnic last Wednesday. Developments are awaited with interest. Mrs. Ella Currie of Vevay, Ind., i3 visiting at Harry Minor's home, 1C0 Maple street. Jn the petition to the city council to be made a separate ward, Fairview asked to be made a residence ward also. This was not acted upon. Per haps there were some legal reasons for not doing so. This matter it is desired to press until the Eighth ward does become such. The people do not want a saloon in Fairview. It is a nice, quiet residence ward, which was true before the division, and we want to keep it so. Your correspondent has been assured by prominent members of the Civic league that the matter will be promptly attended to. No saloon in Fairview is the motto.

PERFECT SCORES LOST IN THE FRIDAY The Day Was a Bad One for Glidden Tourists. OWEN DENIES A RUMOR. Pittsburg, Pa., July 20 The ninetynine miles from Canton to Pittsburg proved to be the hardest day's work thus far for the Glidden tour entries and seven perfect scores were wiped out four in the Glidden contest, one in the Hower and three among the cars which are competing for certificates. Those going wrong were F. J. Pardee, American Mors; Sid Slack, Lozier; P. Gaeth, Gaeth; W. J. How ard, Oldsmobile; I. C. Kirkman, Maxwell; F. M. Nutt, Haynes; H. E. Coffin Thoma as forty runabout. The course for Friday's run wa3 changed at Freedom, from the river road to one which took to the hills and proved the downfall of many besides the perfect-score cars. Clay beds of almost bottomless depth were experienced in several places. At last night's meeting of the contestants Hower stated that there was a rumor afloat that R. M. Owen had substituted another car for the one in which he started from Cleveland. Owen submitted a letter to the committee, in which he offered to deposit a certified check for $23,000 with the committee, to be given to any one who proved the charge.'
