In State Indoor Meet Last Evening : Quakers Only Made 6 Points. . CONRAD WAS HOT IN FORM CRACK UTTLE; ATHLETE SHOWCO THE EFFECTS OF ILLNESS NOTRE DAME CAPTURES THE HONORS EASILY. . Earlham' College athletes did not make the good showing expected of them in the big , state. Indoor track meet at Indianapolis last night Six points were all the Quakers could secure. Ben Grave took first place In the standing hop, step and jump. Conrid took a third in the running broad jump and "the relay team 'finished third. Grave secured five points for his work and Conrad one, the relay race not scoring. Much had been expected of. Conrad, as he has been regarded as one of the best athletes in the state. He has been ill for some time, however, and has only hal a week's training. This fact interfered with his work. Earlhamltes say he will show what he has in the dual meets. Harold King, a former Earlham student, who had reasons of his own for not returning to Earlham, surprised the state by winning the sixty yard dash by beating Wasson of Notre Dame, a few inches. - .Notre Dame -Was Classy. Notre Dame captured the meet with a total of 36 points: ' The Catholics were not to be denied and showed their superiority in nearly every branch. When not pulling down first places, enough seconds and thirds were captured to swell the total number of points far beyond the reach of any of the competing teams. ' Indiana university ranked second with 10 points and Wabash finished third with 10. The meet was "held at the fair grounds coliseum. ' White, captain of the Earlham team, and one of the strongest athletes, did not count in the winning. He had been expected to gain prominence. Conrad did not make the distance In the jump that he has done previously. His condition is Mailed for this. In the college relay the Quakers never had a chance. In the standing hop, step and jump, Grave made an- even thirty feet His mark was not equaled. DHOP A TIGHT GAME Reds Lose to Pittsburg Yesterday in a Fierce Pitchers' Duel.

OHGaillZE A CLUB TO PROTECT GAME

Wayne - County Anglers - and Hunters Form a Definite ' Plan of Action. HAD AUSPICIOUS START AN EFFORT WILL BE MADE TO INDUCE THE GOVERNMENT TO 8TOCK WOODS AND STREAMS OF THE COUNTY. To protect the game of the county add induce the government to stock the streams with fish, The Wayne County Fish and Qame Protective association was organized at a meeting of anglers and sportsmen at the courthouse last evening. There were forty-seven "Ike Waltons" present an.i never was there an organization perfected with a more auspicious start. The co-operation of everyone, who likes to fish and hunt Is asked for. The charter membership roll still is open and membership is solicited at $1. To Increase 8upply. The association is not a money making proposition. . It is organized simply for the protection of the game in the county and to increase the supply. The streams of Wayne county are among the finest in the state for game fish. They are swift flowing, deep and treacherous just the kind of a haunt that is sought by the members of the finny tribe .that delight in putting up a struggle before permitting themselves to be jerked from th-a water at the end of a line. To Induce the government to stock the streams is another object. ' Before this is done an attempt will bemade to exterminate the streams of the German carp, whicU has proved a terror to other varieties of fisb. Spawn beds will be created for the fish. The laws regarding protection of fish and game are to be enforced. To Force No One. It is not the intention of the organi zation to force every one who wants to fish or hunt to become a member. No one is to be forced, but it is a recognized fact that there is no more companionable class than the fishermen, and it is expected hearty co-operation will be easy to secure.' The temporary officers are: Will H. Kelley, chairman; Nimrod Johnson, treasurer; Harry E. Penny, secretary. A committee composed, of the following was named to draft articles of .Incorporation, as it is intended to secure state recognition of the society; E. A. Dickinson, - Louis Hains, H. L. Dickinson. George Deuker, Ed Cooper. W. S. Kaufman, Nimrod Johnson, William Kelley, Harry Penny. PREPARING DOCKET Judge Fox Is Setting Various Criminal Cases for Trial Now.

ARE CHIIEilS OF THE QUAKER CITY RACE SUICIDERS?

School Enumerators Find That The Average " Number of Children Per Family Not Up To Standard. RATIO ESTIMATED AT THREE TO A FAMILY West Richmond Will Carry Off All Honors as Far as Youthful Population Is Concerned, 'Tis Said. The size of the families in this city are much smaller than the average, ac-1 cording to the school enumerators who have about completed their wor.'t in this city. The average in the majority of cities is four persons or more to a family, while in this city the average will be little more than three persons to the family. The largest family in the city, according to R. L. Moore, one of the enumerators, contains nine children of school age. He refused to state the name of this family. Mr. Moore also stated that he visited eight residence on South Eleventh street, situated in a row, in which there was not a child of school age. Is It Race Suicide? While the enumerators do not complain of race suicide, yet they find that there are any number of families in the city who have one son or daughter, while an equally large number have no children. These conditions exist principally among the wealthier residents of the city. The repert will show that the ratio of children to the family will be greater among the poorer citizens. West Richmond Is probably the only locality in the city which will show the average ratio of four to a family. The enumerators found approximately 1.000 children of school age in this district and the census returns of the Young Men's . Business club, shows about 4,000 residents in the Seventh and Eighth wards, v Will Show Increase Two years ago when the enumeration was taken, there were 4.812 children " listed. ' ' This year, -4he . enumerators believe tha this flfttfe will be exceeded slightly.: It is yet too esrly to estimate what percent of gain will be shown this year over the report of two years ago. Today was spent by the enumerators and Miss Ella Winchester, clerk for T. A. Mott, city superintendent, in going over the lists. The enumerators will spend the early part of next week in visiting, families which were missed on the first trip. The report will be complete by May 1, according to a statement made this morning. The enumerators were somewhat surprised at the report of the census of the Y. M. B. C. They expected that it would show there were over 23,000 persons in the city. Two yearB ago, the enumerators estimated that there were 21,557 persons living within the limits of the city. ARE HERE TONIGHT Litchfield Trio Will Appear at The Coliseum Without Fail. LYCEUM MAKES A MISTAKE The Lichtfield Trio, which was to have given the last entertainment of the Richmond lecture course last evening, at the Coliseum was unable to appear here, because of an error on the part of the Stout Lyceum bureau of Chicago. . The bureau, which bad the booking in charge.' sent the Lichtfield Trio to Waldron, Ind., Instead of here. According to the' bureau, the Lichtfield Trio was not' to appear here until this evening. ; Although this arrangement is not entirely satisfactory to the promoters of the lecture course, yet they have consented to the arrangement and the number will be given this evening at the Coliseum. There was a rather large and disappoint 1 audience last evening, to whom pass out checks were given, which will permit them to attend this evening's entertainment. Up Against It. The suffragette leader was addressing a meeting of the Cook Ladles and Chsmbermalds union. "Ton wmmo should all have a oSca In the affairs of the nation," she exclaimed. "Ton should assert yourselves. Ton should be entitled to a tote." Hereupon a aeeker after Information arose and in a voice of conviction said.

TWO THOUSAND TURKS KILLED III PITCHED BATTLE (Continued From Page One.)

poured into the city, dragging machine guns with them. These guns were not used, however, until daybreak. There was - bloody fighting in the Rue Grande, the principal thoroughfare In the Pera section. The reactionaries fled along the streets in an effor to reach the French houses fo. refuge. They were pursued by Young Turks who poured continual rifle fire into the ranks of the fleeing men. The ctreet is filled with corpses. The house of the Russian embassy, was in a direct line of the fire at the hottest of the fighting. Its sides were smashed with bullets and every window broken. The American embassay Is half a mile away from the other embassies. To Ascertain Fatalities. An effort is being made to ascertain the fatalities. , It is known that the loss of the Young Turks was not so heavy as that of the loyalists. The forces of the Young Turks were com posed of about 15,000 men. If. the garrison of the city had not surrendered the Yildiz Kioft might have been attacked and razed. As it was, the palace was not fired upon. The fighting was gradually drawing near the palace when the reactionaries surrendered. At noon today the situation in the city was calm. It was feared however, that this might prove to be the lull before an other storm bursts forth. The city is waiting anxiously to hear the fate of the sultan. RESISTANCE SMOTHERED. Constantinople, April 24. The Young Turks smothered the last spark of resistance late today by capturing the guard house in the European quar ter of the city. The guard house was bravely defended until the Young Turks' brought a rapid fire gun Into play. Halid Bey, Young Turk leader. said that while no personal Injury will be offered to the Sultan, a new sover eign will shortly ascend the throne and restore tranquility. VILLAGE IS BURNED. Beirut, April 24. The Armenian village of Kessab, near Alexanderetta, has been burned and many persons killed. No word has been received from Hadjin, where five American women missionaries were reported in danger. SPIES ARE EXECUTED. . Constantinople, April 24. One . report current today was that the Sultan had escaped the Young Turks after the palace was captured, and had fled to the German guardship. The Union has confirmed the report that thirty-one secret spies in the employ of the Sultan, who were captured by the Young Turks, were tried by court martial today and later executed, outside the city. Mohammedans are highly excited'. ONE AMERICAN KILLED. Berlin. April 24. A dispatch from Constantinople says a number of Europeans were wounded during the fighting. One American sightseer was killed. The dragoman of the Austrian embassy was wonnded and the secretary to the English embassy is reported killed. BURYING THE DEAD. Constantinople, April 24 Bodies of dead are being buried in trenches. Martial law has been proclaimed and people warned to stay indoors. Ring leaders of the uprising in favor of the Sultan will be shot and their property confiscated. LEISHMAN TAKES ACTION. Constantinople. April 24. John G. Lei6hman. American ambassador, in addition to making representations to the foreign office concerning the conditions in Asia Minor, has sppealed directly to Sheikh-Ul-Islam, head of the Mohammedan church, to use his influence for the protection o Americans." The National Assembly at Stefano passed a unanimous resolution directing the government ' to order all provincial authorities energetically to suppress the disorders. Tewfik Pasha will have the order transmitted in an impressive form. The notable Moslems regret deeply the occurrences and the Young Turks will endeavor to trace and punish the Instigators. STRAUS MAY BE SENT. Washington. April 24. It is probable that in case it becomes necessary to send , a special commissioner to Turkey to look after Rmerican interests there, Oscar S. 8trana win be the man selected for the post. , He Is familiar t with conditions there.' having been minister to Turkey several years ago.

THE THEATER

THEATRICAL CALENDAR. GENNETT. Week of April 26. McNavin Cash Ce. NEW PHILLIPS.. All Week High Class Vaudeville. COLISEUM. Thursday, April 29 Creator. Friday, April 30. Hagenbeck-Wallace Shows. Creators. "It is interesting to compare the different methods of pronouncing the name Creatore. said the business manager of the well known band master. The remark was drawn out by the fact that a patron of musical en tertainment had just inquired about reservations and incidentally asked how the name was pronounced. It is impossible for an American to pronounce it as an Italian would, so that however you put it into English no one can say you are wrong. Probably "Cray-a-to-ray" la as nesr as one can come to expressing In English spelling the Italian sound of a word, accenting the third syllable. This pronunciation is used by some; others prefer to Anglicise it somewhat and make it "Cree-a-tory" accenting the third syllable still, or shorten it to "Cree-ato-ry." accenting first. Yet there are adherents of the pronunciation Cree-ay-to-ry" accenting the second syllable; and many people give up attempts at foreign sound and content themselves with the English word Creator. Creatore will be the attraction at the Coliseum one night, April 29. Stock Company. Commencing next Monday night, April 26. McXavin-Cash Stock company will open a week's engagement. The opening bill will be the great sensational comedy drama. "The Man From Nevada.", with refined ' vaudeville features between the acts. The company is said to be a good one of clever people in their respective roles. The usual prices, 10 and 20 cents, will be charged, and ladies will be admitted free Monday night. with each 20 cent ticket. Great Wallace Circus. All the contracts necessary for the innumerable details on the exhibition of a large circus institution have been made for the early appearance in this city of the Carl Hagenbeck and Great Wallace Shows. This is one of the world's largest amusement enterprises and because of its peculiar combination it is probably the most interesting. It is advertised by the management that it is without a peer in point of performance, and it would seem as if this boast is justified in a combination which , includes two such shows. The Wallace Show has for years been con ceded a place in the front rank of cir cuses, and in many points it has been given first place. It could not be excelled in its horses, the quality and completeness of its equipment, or the attention given to the numerous details which are essential for the production of a performance of unusual merit. Although Mr. Wallace has always refrained from featuring some five-second act as a thriller, used purely for advertising purposes, his patrons have always found many surprises in store and now he has come forward with the boss thriller of them all-the trained wild beasts. The nsme of the Carl Hagenbeck Trained Animal Shows hss been for years without a competitor. The world hss never known but the one really and exclusive animal show, and that was the one bearing the title of Hagenbeck and it is the only one that ever made a world tour with its wonderful animal actors. When the combination of the Great Wallace Shows and the Carl Hagenbeck Animal Shows was accomplished by Mr. Wal lace, the amusement world was not surprised, as the combination had been predicted. The deal was a for tunate one for amusement patrons. Inasmuch as they are now able to see the two shows for the prices former ly charged for one. To enable the performances of the two exhibitions to be given simultaneously and without

cutting out a single act of either, has been a herculean task, but It haa been accomplished, and the 'result will be seen when the . Hagenbeck-Wallac Combined Shows appear la Richmond on April 30. Wilhelm Kraupner. With the coming of Wilhelm, Kraupner who will appear as soloist at the Creatore concert on the evening of Thursday. April 29 in the Coliseum, the Richmond concert goers -will have another opportunity to hear -one of the foremost young pianists of today. Among the piano virtuosi now b?fore the public Mr. ' Kraupner is looked upon as a man of splendid talcnti and is known for his broad musicianship and splendid Interpretative ability. It will be remembered by those who are in close touch with musical affairs that Mr. Kraupner's virtuosity and genius were commented upon widely in the European press -during his student days in the master class of the lste Reisenauer who looked upon, him as one of his most brilliant exponents. Upon leaving the class of Reisenauer Mr. Kraupner appeared in many concerts and mustcalee In Germany and his success attracted the attention of the director of the conservatory In Charkow, Russia, where he was Immediately engaged as instructor in the piano department a

position he held until he came to America to become identified with Mlas Buar's famous Cincinnati Conserva tory of Music. Mr. Kraupner's services are in great demand for recitals but this marks his premiere performance In this city. The New Phillips. The strongest part of the New Phillips bill these last three days is probably the line of acrobatic feats the Landeres company is putting on. This company is composed of four littta children and they get the cream when they successfully go through with a half hour's entertainment in the athletic line. While all are good, the little five-year-old Miss will take your heart. Besides these people S. Howard Company and Andy Rankin hold com-: edy lines. And they drive with accuracy and art. These people were horn for the vaudeville stage. - . TEACIIEnS HELD A MEET1IIG TODAY BBBBSBBBBBSM Examination Is Given at the Court House.
