FIGHT II! TENTH HAS BROKEfl OUT WITH MUCH ZEST
Enemies of Congressman Crumpacker to Take Warpath in an Effort to Secure His Downfall. SPEAKER CANNON IS USED AS A WEAPON Opponents of Representative State Speaker's Enmity to Him Will Result in His Ruin. Indianapolis, Aug. 9. That old Tenth district fight against Congress Ijnan Crumpacker is breaking out 'again, and as usual it comes from .Tippecanoe county. The fact that Speaker Cannon has turned Crum (packer down and ousted him from his Iplaee as a member of the ways and finesse committee of the house, is beJng seized upon by the enemies of Crumpacker as a means of creating 'fresh trouble for him in the district, fit is said that some of the tenth dis trict politicians who are employed in jthe state house, are sending letters 'into the tenth district calling atten jtion to the fact that Crumpacker is 'in bad with Cannon," and that, there- ; fore, be has lost his usefulness as a ! member of congress from the tenth 'district. They point out that Crum I packer w4H no longer be able to get anything for the district because Cannon wilt head him off, to punish him 'for the stand he took in the tariff Might. They point out that a congress i man who cannot get anything for his I district is not worth much as a mem- ! her of congress, and that it is time 'to make a change. This means, of , course, the reopening of the old fight wmca naa us origin at me memoraoie .Michigan City convention some years ago when Crumpacker was nominated over J. Frank Hanly, who afterward became governor. Watch the Effect. .Whether these letters which are being sent out over the tenth district 'will have the effect of bringing out any candidates against Crumpacker : for the nomination cannot be told rnow, but it is evident that this is their jpurpose. It is pointed out, however, 'that if any other candidates do come out they will have to be new, young men, because none of the older men who had a hand In the Michigan City convention or who have been mixed lip in the anti-Crumpacker fight in past years could win a nomination. Friends of Crumpacker have learned of the letter writing that is going on and they are doing a little writing of their own. Crumpacker has some tenth district friends in the state house, and It Is said they are taking eood care to see that every person who gets an anti-Orumpacker letter I also gets one setting forth the Crumpacker side of the situation. ' Cannon in Bad. ! Speaker Cannon is in bad in the tenth district, . with the republican leaden as well as with the part in rgeneral and it is believed that under ordinary circumstances Cannon would be roundly condemned for his action tin removing Crumpacker from the iwajs and means committee, but under the circumstances as they exist now, with the district fight on hand, the axrtl-Cnimpackerits are willing to aide in with Cannon In the fight against" the Valparaiso man, hoping iChus to The able to beat him out for the next nomination. The friends of Crumpacker point to the record he has 'made since he went to congress, and they declare that it is a fine one and that he has done as much for the district as -any other man could have done. They say also that his long years of service in congress have given him experience that makes him much more valuable as a member 'than any new man could be. Therefore, they insist that it would be a very great mistake to turn him down ind send a new man to congress from 'the district There is not the least danger, howover, that the republicans will lose the tenth district, no matter who is nominated for congress. The republican majority in that district is so large that it will elect any candidate put forth. HEIRONIMUS HOME. Prof. N. C. Heironimus, principal of the Garfield school, who has been visit ting friends and relatives in Wabash county, has returned home and is preparing for the opening of the school in September.

QUESTION FATE OF FRIENDLESS HOME If County Would Withdraw Its Support, What Would Result Be? A VERY COSTLY EXPENSE FOR BOARDING ITS WARDS IT IS ESTIMATED THE COUNTY PAYS OUT TO THE INSTITUTION $1,600 A YEAR. The question is heing asked: What would become of the jail at the Home of the Friendless, if the county were to build a woman's ward at the county jail? This jail is owned by the county. It was built at an expense - of about $4,000. The county boards women prisoners, Insane women and delin quent children at the . institution. The county pays for board for these in mates 40 cents per day. The county, pays for a guard for the insane $1 per day and furnishes the board. The home is a quasi-public institution only. The organization that controls it received for boarding prisoners during the last quarter. $406.05. That is at the rate of $1,600 per year. What Expense Is. The county supplies the boarders. pays their board and furnishes the place to house them. The prisoners are supposed to be under the care of the sheriff. It is eleven squares from the home to the sheriff's residence and in case of emergency, it would le some time before he could arrive. The law requires that insane prisoners be under the custody of the sheriff. Without reference to records, the sheriff would he unable to tell how many insane prisoners there are at the institu tion. He is not on the premises, so a guard is employed. The county pays the bill. The county pays for another guard over the insane prisoners at the county jail. But if the county builds an insane ward and women's prison as contemplated there will be opposition, it is alleged. The opposition will be di rected in the main against the removal of women prisoners and probably the Insane as well, from the Jail at the home. WILL ATTEND FAIR. The New Castle fair this week will be attended by, a large number from this city. Days were when Richmond had a fair, but there are only prospects now that some time there will be an other.

Mrs. Swift formerly resided in Rich mond and her demise is sincerely re gretted by her many friends in this city.
He Says A Touch Needed By New York, Aug. 9. "Conscious motherhool is the ideal of the future. But by oonscious motherhood I do not mean something to sublime for understanding. Perfect womanhood is tempered by a dash of the devil. "Unconscious motherhool is the appeal of the weakness and soft beauty in our old ideals. "The height of woman's mental attainment will be conscious motherhood." Holding in the hollow of his hand a small plaster cast of a woman's head that typified his meaning, Victor D. Brenner, sculptor and designer of the Lincoln 1 cent piece, was slowly putting into words an ideal that his genius has already wrested from the marble. "The woman of tomorrow will combine an intelligence and sensuality that Is perfection," the sculptor continued. "It is the woman of tomorrow that I have tried to model. Our old ideals were not intellectual. The beautiful body was there, with its appealing suggestion of motherhood, but it AMBASSADORS ARE ill SESSION TODAY Are Making Effort to Solve the Very Difficult Cretan Trouble.

Terapia, the ambassadorial summer colony on the West coast of the Bosphorus, to solve the Creton question and prevent Turkey and Greece from going to war. Greece will make a formal reply to Turkey today, the sense of which is that the Greek officers in Crete were stricken from the Grecian army list three years ago and . that the entire question is in the hands of the four protecting powers Great Britain, Italy, Prance and Russia. Claims Neutrality. Greece reiterates " assurances of Greek neutrality in - Crete. Meanwhile the agitation in Greece is spread ing throughout Turkey The minister of war received information from Albania that a force of 6.Q0O volunteers has been formed there and is being held in readiness at Monastir to fight against Greece.

It is better than the old ideal, but it is not right. The woman of the future will be the best of the old and the present. See here in my hand is the face that I mean. This woman looks clearly from her eyes and says 'I know everything and I am fearless; I am mistress of myself.' "See the full, almost voluptuous curve of the lips I have carved. That is the touch of the devil in her makeup, the human touch that makes her lovable and understandable. "It is not weak, because the nose is too finely chiseled and the chin is too strong.

(American News Service) Constantinople, Aug. 9. Turkey has rushed ten thousand more soldiers to the frontier and also is reinforcing the frontier garrisons. Preparations in progress indicate a break between Turkey and Greece. It is believed that England will back Turkey while other European powers favor Greece. IT GIVES CONCERN Cuban Situation Very Agitating to the United States Now. POST MAKES STATEMENT (American News Service) Washington, Aug. 9. In full confirmation of the announcement made exclusively by the American News Service three months ago, the Washington Post, which strongly reflects the views of "the administration, in a leading article today says: "The situation of the Cuban government is now the cause for concern on the part of the Washington government. That intervention by the United States will be necessary, however reluctant it may be to take the step, is an opinion that Is shared by many. "All is now smooth sailing for President Gomez. Only recently his entire cabinet resigned and his new administration is not yet on a settled basis. It is understood that difficulties are being encountered which may lead to new trouble among his secretaries. A crisis Is not looked for in the immediate future but the trend of events is such that a break up seems inevitable."
DIPLOMATS FLEE FROMJEAT WAVE Foreign Embassies Transfer red to Seaside and Mountain Resorts.
TWO MINISTERS REMAIN BUT THE SPANISH AND MEXICAN HEADS ARE NOW PREPARING TO EVACUATE WASHINGTON FOR COOLER CLIMES. Washington, Aug. 9. Washington has lost its character as a diplomatic center and will be barren of ambassadors, ministers and attaches until the hot weather is over. The Marquis de Villalobar, the new Spanish minister, and Senor Don Francisco Leon de la Barra, the Mexican ambassador, are among the few exceptions who are braving the heat, but they, too, are only here for a short time. Manches-ter-by-the-Sea, Beverly and summer resorts in Maine are given on the diplomatic list as residences of embassies and legation. Baron Edmondo Major des Planches the Italain ambassador and dean of the diplomatic corps has started a trip to Europe, following the example of Baron Hengelmulle, the Austrian ambassador; M. Jusserand, the ambassador from France, Baron Rosen, the Russian ambassador and Count J. H. Von Bernstorff, the German ambassador. Mr. Brice, the British ambassador is enjoying the cool breezes at North east harbor, Maine. Baron Takahira. the Japanese ambassador is on his way to Seattle for a trip to Japan, and Dr. Wu Ting Fang, the Chinese minister, is in Peru, apparently In no hurry to return until things are enlivened here. Transfers Arranged. Before leaving for their European trips the ambassadors arranged transfers of their respective embassies to their summer addresses. Thus the Italian embassy is now at Mancester-on-the-sea, with the Marchese Paola di Montagliari in charge; the Austrian embassy with Baron Luis Ambrosi charge d'affaires is at Manchester, Bass. ; M. Lafevre Pontalis, charge d'afaires of the rFench embassy has gone to Essex, Mass., where he will establish the headquarters at the Essex Country club. The Brazilian and Russian embassy are both transferred to Manchester-on-the-sea, the British embassy is now at North East Harbor and the German embassy's headquarters are at Beverly Farms. Viscount de Alto, the Portuguese minister has established his legation at Oapon Springs, Va.; Senor Don Epifance Portala, the Argentine minister will soon have his legation at the Oceanside, Magnolia, Mass; the legation of Ecuador is at Blue Ridge Summit, Pa.; the Swedish legation is at Bar Harbor, as are O. Skybak, charge d'affaires of the Norwegian legation, and Jonkheer J. Loudon, minister from the Netherlands. Among the few diplomats who are not conspicuous by their absence are Nasaoni Hanari, first secretary of the Japanese embassy, and Dr. Yen Wei Ching, second secretary of the Chinese legation, who are very busy here following the Chinese-Japanese railway trouble, which may grow acute at any moment. Senor Portala is another exception. He has been in Washington every day for some weeks because of the recent Argentine-Bolivian trouble. The Central American diplomats are as much as ever in evidence at the Arlington hotel. DRIVES HIS AUTO ON SIDEWALK SO WAS GATHERED IN (Continued From Page One.) son of Lee Ashley, of the Westcott Carriage company, makers of automobiles reported at headquarters. Street Was Rough. He said the street was so rough, he thought hie would try the sidewalk. He professed not to know streets are made for autos and sidewalks for pedestrians. Ashley did not ride a bicycle, he did not ride a horse, he did not permanently obstruct the sidewalk, he did not blockade traffic, he was not violating the speed ordinance, so what did he do? He was on the wrong side of the street, but the ordinance applying to automobiles using the right 6ide says "street" and not sidewalk. Prosecutor Ladd and City Attorney Study are trying to find out wherein lies Ashley's offense. Buckingham Palace. Buckingham palace stands on the site of pleasure grounds known in the days of Evelyn and Pepys and frequently nentionel in their diaries as the Mulberry gardens. The property was eventually bought by the Duke of Buckingham, who erected the first house, which, however, was not large or handsome, notwithstanding that it was even then called Buckingham palace. George III. purchased it from the dowager Duchess of Buckingham as a residence far Queen Charlotte, whose palace. Somerset House, in the Strand, was required for public purposes. After much haggling with his majesty's agent the duchess parted with ft for 60.000. It was not greatly altered till 1824. when it was enlarged and almost rebuilt after designs by Joseph Nash for the London residence of the royal family. London Queen.

HAS BROKEN NECK BUT HEJW LIVE Operation Will Be Performed On Lynn, Ind., Young Man Today. FALL WAS RESPONSIBLE ALBERT KRAFT WAS IN TREE GATHERING FRUIT WHEN HE LOST HIS FOOTING CERVICAL VERTEBRAE BROKEN. Having lived for more than a week with a broken neck, Albert Kraft of Lynn, twelve miles north of Richmond, was to undergo an operation at St. Vincent's hospital, Indianapolis today. mis nectc is oroKen. He sunerea a fracture of the cervical vertebrae in a fall from a tree and since that time has been paralyzed. His condition is extremely critical and surgeons are skeptical as to the result of the operation. His life will be saved if possible. Kraft was high in a tree gathering fruit when he lost hts footing and fell to the ground, striking in such a manner that the vertebrae in his neck were separated and the spinal cord crushed and bruised. He was given attention immediately, but there was no improvement and it was finally decided to send him to Indianapolis for an operation. Nerves of Stomach Saved. Practically the only thing that stands between Kraft and death is the fact that the nerves of his face, heart and stomach are not paralyzed. These nerves come from brain centers and the injured man is able to eat and digest his food with little difficulty. The remainder of his body is not however, under his control. His arms and body and legs are paralyzed and he can not move them in any direction. Attendants are needed to turn him in bed and care for all his wants. Little information about the case could be obtained from the hospital and it is not known just what hopes are entertained for Kraft's life. It is certain that the spinal cord is not separted, but how badly it is crushed can not be told. Surgeons will adjustthe bones of. his neck in the hopeT'that the spinal cord will return to its normal condition and the paralysis will be overcome.
