POLICE LAW MAY GET COURT TEST Have Police Boards a Right to Dismiss the Old Superintendents?

SEN. M'CULLOUGH'S VIEW

T ANDERSON COUNCIL ENTERTAINS A MOTION TO REDUCE SALARIES OF BOARD MEMBERS TO 1100 A YEAR.

Anderson, Ind., March 18. When the Common Council met In special session to approve the bonds of the new police commissioners, a motion was made nd seconded to reduce the salaries of police board members to $ 100 a year. Kurther action was deferred, until the council, in regular session, can pass an Ordinance. Under the metropolitan police law, the salary of each member of the police board was $14) a year. There is a prospect of a test of the jiew police law in the home city of Senator C. K. MeCullough, whose bill repealed the metropolitan police law. The new police board has offered the euperintendency to Mark Robbing, a former superintendent, but Otcar C. Houston, the present incumbent, propose to hold the job as long as possible..' ' ' Grounds of Dispute. A dispute is on as to whether the board can summarily dismiss an officer from service unless charges are filed against him and proved. Senator MeCullough was appealed to for information on that point. He said his till only changed the police law in that the mayors of cities, instead of the governor of the state, should appoint the police boards. The bill, Senator MeCullough further said, contained nothing concerning rules by which a police force may be governed, lie was not positive as to whether the rules of the metropolitan police law would be In effect under the new police law end thereby giving an officer a hearing before he could be discharged from service. It was the opinion of Senator MeCullough, however, that the new police board could formulate Its own rules and by such rules dismiss member of the police board if the board chose to do so. All of the patrolmen have lined up to a man with Superintendent Houston to "stand pat" and not resign. The men believe the police board cannot afford to rip the police force to pieces and discharge men without cause if it hopes to have a police force that will work faithfully."

Former Challenges Latter to Fistic Combat in a Church Cellar.

MAY CHARGE ADMISSION

Allentown, Pa., March 18. H. Sine Rice, editor of the Siegfried Independ

ent, has challenged the Rev. J. G

Rupp, pastor of a Reformed church in

the same borough, to a fist fight.

Some days ago, Mr. Rice stated that

of 231 signatures on license petitions, thirty-seven were those of members

of Mr. Rupp's congregation, and re

marked that the suppression of evils should begin in church. Then Rice alleges he was told that the preacher said he would give $10 to the man who

would thrash the editor. -Rice's reply was this challenge: "I suggest that you and I engage In a fistic encounter to a finish, Marquis of Queensbury rules, in the basement of your edifice, and charge admission. The $10 you might be able to earn yourself and put into the church treasury." The townspeople are urging the pastor to. accept.

PORTLAND, IND., IS SHOCKED BY PARTICULARLY DISGUSTING CASE AND COURT WILL MAKE INVESTIGATION. Portland, Ind., March 18. Charging that her uncle, the Rev. Benjamin Mayo, aged 60, is the father of her new-born babe. Miss Mary Etta Puterbaugli, 17, of near Salem, Madison township, has entered paternity proceedings against him in the court of Justice of the Peace William Myers of Pike township. But, according to the aged minister and his friends, the blame has been misplaced and that the girl's father, Joshua Puterbaugh, is guilty of the most degrading of crimes. The community, which Is aroused over the outrage is about evenly divided in their opinion as to the guilty party, one faction accusing the preacher and the other the father. Mother of Girl is Dead. The mother of the unfortunate girl has been dead for a number of years and she has kept house for her father and her uncle, the minister, who has made his home with them the greater part of the time. For some months the girl's condition has been known to the neighbors and common gossip had it that her father, aged 60, was responsible. The finger of suspicion, was also turned toward the uncle and the filing of the suit caused no surprise, although many believe that the wrong man has been accused. Accuses the Minister. Puterbaugh was in this city consulting with Prosecuting Attorney Flem

ing. He emphatically denied that he was responsible for his daughters disgrace, and said that there was no

doubt in his mind that the uncle-min

ister was guilty of her betrayal. Mayo,

on the other hand, claims to have conclusive evidence of his innocence,

which he will furnish when the case

comes to trial.

The New Phillips. Hufford and Chain, the two black face comedians at the New Phillips these last three days are as relieving as the sound of a babbling brook. Well, some times they sound like that just babble along through a whole line of nothingness. But this nothingness Is just enough to make

them desired. They say things which

tickle the palate, or the thorax, or

the vertebrae wherever you are easi

ly tickled. When it comes to imitat

ing the colored brother, they can do it.

Dixie Harris and sister are a mark

ed improvement over some things

which Richmond has seen in their

line. Dixie sings and his sister

dances. Then Dixie dances and his sister sings. Between the two there is always something doing.

And still they come. Kipp and Kip-

py juggle. How they can eliminate some of the things which are making

the rounds of the vaudeville stage is

surprising and still make good. But

they do it with a full line.

Vogel's Minstrels. On Saturday, matinee and night,

Minstrels will be seen at the Gennett

theater. The company is half a hundred strong and boasts of a roster sec

who have been engaged at an enormous salary, for this tour only, is said to be one of the most sensational

novelties of the country and one of the features of the performance. , At the Arcade. "A Fools Revenge" is an intensely thrilling play showing how, when a man attempts to commit a crime, it can act as a boomerang and strike the culprit instead of the intended victim. This picture is of an exceptionally high class and to appreciate it it must be seen. Sis Hopkins. A rural comedy drama in which there is nothing even suggesting caricature of the Posey type of people, is Sis Hopkins, the most delightful and satisfying rural play on the stage today which will be seen at the Gennett on Monday, March 29. Miss Rose Melville, who first gave the quaint and lovable character of the Posey county girl to the stage, will again be seen In the title role. This Is Miss Melville's tenth year of continuous success. The play has been given an entirely new production this season by Miss Melville's manager, Mr. J. R. Stirling and the company supporting

her is the best she has ever had. In the now famous seminary scene, there are m'-ny new specialties introduced and Obadiah, the remarkable odd undertaker's assistant, has written a new set of epitaphe for the character of Posey county. And there isn't a. tear in the whole ke-

TME REASON

Last week while in New York, our Mr. H. C. Hasemeier was invited to attend the great clearance and removal sale of Geo. Borgfield & Co., who are the largest handlers of China Glass and bric-a-brac in the world. We secured an assortment of 350 pieces of the .finest vases and bric-a-brac at less than 25c on the dollar of their real value. At first we decided to store this purchase until the next Christmas holidays, but have since concluded to give our customers the benefit now. With housecleaning and the desire to make the home as attractive as possible near at hand, we thought the sale would be more appreciated at this time. The Entire Purchase On Sale Saturday Morninfl at 8:C3 O'cbzli ReatiTffltoe Prices 28c, 38c, 48c, 58c, 88c, 78c, $8c ' The goods may be seen in our west window. - Not a piece will be sold or laid aside before the opening of the sale.

OH, BLAME PUBLIC ! What Does the Street Car Company Care for Such Mere Trifle?

BUM SERVICE CONTINUES

There was the same old lack of street car accommodations following the show last night. One car each way was all that was provided. The West Richmond car made a long trip over the Fairview line before going out the Richmond avenue route. The Earlham car was not able to accommodate the patrons of the line. Men stood on the fenders and women packed the platforms. The car was loaded so heavily that the rear fender bumped

the ground all along the trip. When there is a crowd, there is no car; when j it rains the cars leak, and when it is i

dry the dust suffocates the passengers,
