THROUGH ITS COLUMNS, COMMONER WITH HIS INDIANA ASSOCIATE, TOM TAGGART, WILL BE FLAYED. Indianapolis, Aug. 8. So bitter is the feeling against Bryan among the followers of Hearst that it is believed the head of the Independence league 'will establish a newspaper in Indiana . polls for campaign purposes, if not permanently. Rumor has it that the Sun has been quoted a price by representatives of Hearst, but the rumor has neither affirmation nor denial. It lu known that on one or two occasions previously, when Hearst had, political axes to grind la Indiana, the Sun property was sought, but nothing ever came of the negotiations. Now, however, it is asserted that Hearst is so determined to defeat Bryan fa this Btate that he is very anxious to break Into the newspaper field here. He is even more anxious to upset Taggart than he Is to leap on the neck of the Nebraskan, for he believes that a sharp fight on the national chairman would bring the same result the defeat of the democratic party. As the "situation looks at present, the battle between Hearst and Bryan Is going to 'hurt the latter'a chances in Indiana. It has been said by democratic leaders that Hearst'B ticket will pull as many 'votes from the republicans as it will ifrom the democrats. This they know ito be untrue. The Independence league, at. least in this state, Is made up i largely of former democrats democrats who fell away from Bryan becauso he gave signs of conservatism. There is scarcely a leader among the (Hearst forces' in In this state who was not formerly allied with the democracy. In fact, one of them was a i former state official. Hearst himself 'eeems to accept the proposition that, so far as Indiana is concerned, his Independence league will draw practically all its strength from the democrats,' for he is preparing to make the Nebraskan all the trouble he can on the theory that he can kill his chances of carrying Indiana. It is said that Hearst looks upon the Indiana polls newspaper field as a poor one from a money making standpoint, but he has political ends to maintain it is deemed likely that he will take the chance. WANTS YOUNG WOMAN TO PAY FOR GIFTS Coal Company After Sweetheart of Former President. Reading, Pa., Aug. S. Miss Mary L. Hammer, aged twenty-five, has been sued for $5,500 by the American Union Coal company, of Philadelphia, it claiming that its former president, Samuel P. Langdon,v aged sixty years, used the company's money to pay for costly gifts he made to the young woman who, with her widowed mother, resides in a handsomely furnished house in a fashionable part of the city.

The wall in the rear of the bench, was adorned also. Maurice O. Eldridgewassent to this city by the government for the purpose of explaining the need for good roads and the way to make them. The merchants recognize the necessity of good transportation facilities and expressed anxiety to assist in the project Immediately. The matter of arrangements was turned over to the Young Men's Business Club and to this young organization belongs all credit that is due for the initiative and energy supplied. The officers worked incessantly and the various sub committees attended to their duties with a worthy zeal. The day was advertised in all counties of this section and personal invitations were issued. The committees sold pennants to provide funds rather than solicit subscriptions from the merchants and public spirited persons. Mention is due the Fort Wayne Avenue and North E street merchants for their enthusiasm, as well as those on Main street They assisted nobly in the effort and their places of business were decorated in much the same manner as those of the up town district. The crowds that began to arrive from the rural districts were entertained throughout the day. Band concerts had been provided. The merchants offered bargain prices at their stores. Some of the factories located in the more remote districts furnished free cab conveyance to and from the uptown sections. There was something doing at each moment. Fire Department Rune. The greatest interest of the crowd centered in the exhibition run of the fire department. The horses were given free reins on North A between Fifteenth and Fourteenth streets and allowed to run west at full speed. A great throng of spectators crowded the sidewalks and out into the streets. There was general approval of the excellent work of the department. Meeting This Afternoon. At the meeting at the court house this afternoon the keys of the city were turned over to the good roads visitors by Mayor It. S. Schillinger in an appropriate address. The welcoming address was delivered by J. Bennett Gordon, representing the business men of the city. He mentioned the need of good roads as avenues of commerce and transportation and stated he believes the era has arrived when more attention will be paid to the condition of the roads than has been done in the past. Eldridge's Address. Mr. Eldridge spoke in part as follows: The prospects for gravel road building is as favorable in Wayne county as in any other section of the United States. Progress has already been made in the construction of good, cheap, gravel roads, and with proper maintenance Wayne county can have as good roads as there are in the United States or in Europe. I noticed many automobiles when I was inspect ing the roads this morning and they have done much to promote the sentiment for good roads and they have also damaged the roads considerably in the United States by removing the small gravel and the fine stone dust which is so essential to properly constructed and maintained roads, either of gravel or macadam. There have been remedies suggested for the surfacing of roads, such as tar and oil having an asphalt base, etc. This subject of roads is one of the burning questions of Europe and there will be a meeting of the International Road Congress in Paris in October. L. W. Page who is one of the greatest of the good road workers will attend this meeting and participate in the preceding. "The officials of the public roads at Washington, D. C, have done considerable work in experimenting and a minster of very satisfactory results

"Indiana is probably supplied better with the facilities for good road building than any other state in the union. The Indianians should be proud that the Hoosier state has more than 20,000 miles of good gravel roads, which is about one third of all the gravel roads in the United States. "Despite these facts the people are not satisfied with the gravel roads. The trouble is not with the gravel nor the methods of the construction but in the maintenance department. Systematic and constant care is necessary in order to secure good gravel roads. The best material available should be selected and the quality of this should be determined by sending it to the office of public roads at Washington. D. C. "The foundations for the roads should be solid before the gravel 13 spread and should have a slope from about one half to three quarters of an inch to the foot slope on each side of the road. The best result can be secured by separating the large rocks by the means of a sive or by machinery. If the gravel is not so separated the large rocks should be raked to the foundation of the road as it progresses. To obtain the best results for the finished road the material should be rolled with the steam roller but good roads can be made by spreading the gravel and letting the traffic pack it. Shoulders should be in the roads according to the views that some engineers hold in making roads, although they are not necessary. When they are made, special attention should be paid to them. The center of the road should always be maintained higher than the sides, so that the water will flow to the side of the road and then off into ditches that are made for that purpose. Surface water must be got rid of at all hazards if a good road is established. "The shoulders should be kept trimmed away with the road machine and all the dirt from the ditches and the shoulders should be thrown into fence corners or hauled away. Worn out material such as dirt, and material from side ditches, and sand, grass and weeds will never make a good gravel road. This stnff is better fitted for the dump. "The crown of the road should be at least three-fourths and in some places one inch to the foot higher from the sides to the center. The roads should have side ditches with suitable fall to lower ground on both sides. The culverts should be slanting so that the water will flow through and keep it clean. They should never be laid level. Fall is one of the principal factors to be considered in good road building. "The split log should be used incessantly in . maintaining a gravel road. Its special use is in eliminat ing mud holes, ruts and bumps. It should be used when the ground is wet so that when the material dries it will bake and harden. This is an easy device and any farmer can make it in several hours. Instructions on this can be secured at the public roads office. "This county has as good material and enough money practically speaking to build and maintain satisfactory roads if the peoplo go at it in a systematic and business like method and there is no reason why the roads of Wayne county should not be equal to those of any other county in the United States. General discussion followed the address and the question box was opened. GENEVA DELEGATION HAS RETURNED HOME Boys Who Attend Y. M. C. A. Meeting Pleased. Harold Meyers and Charles Smith who have been attending the Y. M. C. A. conference at Lake Geneva, have returned home. While there the boys were under the direction of Roy Horton. who is the physical director cf the Richmond Y. M. C. A. The Richmond boys took part in the meeting and were well pleased.

EVENT WAS TYPICAL OF SOUTHERN SOCIETY AND MERRY FESTIVITIES CONTINUED LONG AFTER CANDIDATE RETIRED. White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., Aug. S. Candidate Taft yesterday drove forty miles over the mountains of Virginia and West Virginia and lent himself as the chief feature of Green Brier county's first horse show and last evening led the german at the famous old Greenbrier hotel, where he will remain until Monday. Mr. Taft made no speeches and contemplates none during the trip. At the horse show held two miles from the Springs, the ,?,(KX spectators had been dividing interest between the track, events and watching the entrance gate for the Taft wagon. It came at 4 o'clock. Cheers greeted the arrival. After the distinguished guests were given seats of honor, ribbons were awarded in the coaching class and for high steppers and a running race was run. Then came mountain showers. In the evening the scene at the ball was entirely typical of southern society, elegance and warm hospitality. The old hostelry was crowded with guects and the festivities went merrily on long after the candidate had made his good night bow and retired.

The mother, Mrs. Frank Lindberg. left the house in the morning to go shopping. She locked the children In a room.

After a two days' spree, Edward Lindsay landed back in the city jail last night and this morning began anew to eat his meals off the bench at the county jail. He was fined $10 and costs for public intoxication and previous convictions and went to Jail. 1 Lindsay was released after eleven days' incarceration, Thursday morning. Annonartng a Meal. Among the curious byways of socia. history and household custom, says the London Globe, is that which is concerned with the mod of announcing that dinner or any other meal is or shortly will be ready. The dinner bell Is, of course, the oldest of these modes. In mediaeval times the monastery or convent bell rang out on the quiet country air many times in the course of the day and night, and one of the many summonses was that which drew them to the refectory. And in later ages there are frequent allusions in literature which show that the bell method was still in constant favor notwithstanding the customary use of other modes of summons.

WOULD BE OF GREAT VALUE In the office of the county commissioners in the court house today, a petition was signed by scores of persons asking the United States government to construct one mile of gravel road some place near the city of Richmond as a sample of the. proper construction of such roads. The petition will be presented to M. O. Eldridge, of the bureau of public roads and referred by him to the proper authorities at Washington for consideration. It is believed the petition will receive favorable action. The government has constructed samples of reads in a number of places. They act as examples to the road officials as to the proper method of construction. It is believed a practical demonstration of the kind is far better information than can be gained by hearing or reading. The samples are made under the direct supervision of the government experts.
