"Wherever horses are permitted to stand along an asphalt street the street gives way much more rapidly than elsewhere, and we have been required in every Instance to put In a new gutter composed of cement, to the width of two feet or more at the expense of the city.

Who ever heard of Katwyk-aan-Zee? And who having heard of it knows how to pronounce the name? Yet Katwyk is a popular and picturesque little Dutch resort on the shores of the Zuyder Zee, and an American author has chosen it as the scene of one of the greatest successes of recent times, "The Red Mill," which plays at the Oennett, matinee and night Sept 11. As nearly every one knows, the stars of this musical piece by Henry Blossom and Victor Herbert, are Swor and Woods, and they will be seen In it at Woods. Mr. Swor, besides being a bit of a globe trotter, is an amateur photographer. That he is a clever comedian goes without saying. For several summers he has toured Europe. His trusty camera always accompanies him. Last summer Mr. Swor visited Holland, the locale of the story of "The Red Mill." and at Katwyk-aan-Zee got some very good studies of the quaint little town. One shows the famous red mill on the outskirts of the town from which Henry Blossom got his idea for the title of the play. The other portrays the Greet Bad Hotel, which is represented in the first act of "The Red Mill," and which Mr. Swor, who stopped there, says Isn't so bad as its name. 10 STRIKE MONDAY (American News Service) Pittsburg, Sept. 4.

OPEN SEASON IS 0(1
Hoosier Sportsmen May Now Hunt Ducks, Geese, Mudhens, Etc. GAME LAWS ARE AMENDED The open season for . hunting all sorts of water fowl is now under way, having opened Sept. 1. Sportsmen who are heeding the call of the wood, field and marsh will be interested in the following provisions of the state game laws, as amended in the recent session of the general assembly: Ducks, geese, rails, doots, mudhens and species of (water fowl may be killed between September 1 and April Quail, November 10 to January 1; number one person may kill in one day Rabbits, November 10 to succeeding October 1. A closed season for rabbit shooting during October has been provided in order., that hunters may not scour the fields and kill young quail while pretending that they are hunting rabbits. Squirrels, July 1 to October 1. Woodcock, July 1 to January 1. Snipe and plover any time. Doves, protected during the entiro year. Pheasants, prairie chickens, grouse and Hungarian partridges must not be killed until 1915. It is unlawful to kill wild duck or other waterfowl at any time between sunset of the day and sunrise of the following day. It is unlawful to kill wild birds at any time, or to hunt or shoot on Sunday. Hunters must have license to hunt anywhere except on land owned or rented by them. , From October 1 to November 10 is a closed season for all game except water fowl. Because of the lack of an abundance of waterfowl in Wayne county it is not likely that any of the laws will be seriously fractured. ARE "PORE DEVILS" John Darnell, engineer at the court house says that boys who loaf around the court house yard during the summer time are "pure devils."' He has entered a complaint with the county commissioners and an effort will be made to apprehend the youths. In making his complaint to the commissioners this morning.

WAS A DIVORCE DAY Three Matrimonial Bonds Severed in the Circuit Court.
TALES OF WOE RECITED Today was divorce court day in the circuit court and the ties wich bind were severed in three instances. Two of the cases were for failure to provide while the third was a negro adultery case. In the latter case William A. Wilson asked a divorce from Mrs. Martha O. Wilson. The witnesses in this case seemed to enjoy the proceedings and it appeared as though they were attending a festival of some nature, instead of a divorce court. Judge Fox granted Wilson a divorce but as the costs of the case have not been paid, the decree is not binding until this is done. Hear Griffith Case. The first case up this morning was that of Martha A. Griffith against Charles E. Griffith. The plaintiff recited a tale of woe, of failure to provide on the part of her husband and finally of his desertion. During the short period of time that Mr. and Mrs. Griffith lived togsther in this city, they resided at four different places. Mrs. Griffith said that her husband' would live at one place without paying rent as long as the landlord would stand for it. Mrs. Magdalena Camplin of Cambridge City told Judge Fox that her husband abandoned her three years ago last March and that she had been supporting herself and four children through her own efforts since that time.

Mr. Bass told him that he wanted Englebert to go home with him. Englebert was reluctant, Bass states. However, Bass threatened to give Englebert a beating, so Englebert consented to go with him. On their arrival Ellsworth awakened his sister, mother and father. A neigh bor whose name Mr. Bass asked withheld from publication, was also called in to witness the "doings. Bass states Englebert was invited to take a seat on the divan, which he did. Miss Bass appeared in the room carrying a heavy blacksnake and after a few words of explanation started to give her alleged defamer a good whipping He sat on the divan and took every liclc without moving. She only desisted when her own strength gave out, it is stated. Makes a Confession. After Miss Bass desisted, Englebert was invited to apologize which he humbly did on his knees, it is said. He admitted that he lied, according to Mr. Bass, and also that he deserved the whipping. Englebert was then excused. Ells worth Bass accompanied Englebert out of the house and almost to his home. Englebert, it is said, -was greatly affected "by the whipping. John Cully, patrolman, has charge of the west side beat. He visited the Bass home and learned the details. Mr. Cully was seen at his home today and refused to divulge the details of the affair. He merely said that he could not make any arrests as he did not see the whipping administered. He said that he telephoned to Sergeant McNally for orders and was Instructed by him .to make a report of it In the morning, which he did.
WINTER PLANS PREPARED 4 IN SHORT TIME THE OFFICIALS WILL ISSUE A NEAT PROSPECTUS BAN PLACED ON SOAP BARS NOW.
After October 1 or thereabovts when the fall season at the Y. M. C. A. opens the building will be denied to all except members of the association. However, this does not apply to non members who desire to use the privileges of the Spa and other special privileges which will be announced as the occasion rises. Such a decision was reached by the directors at their nieet'.ng last evening. Members will be checked as they use 'the different privileges of the association. In order to do this, another man will be added to the force, who Rill have his headquarters at the foot -t the basement stairs. He will have charge of the towels and will also see that the swimming pool and bowling alleys are not used by non-members. Have Not Been Strict. The officials of the association have aot been so strict in regard the priv ileges this summer because the attend ance has been light. A ban has been placed on bars cf soap, and it is probable that liquid soap will be used at the wash stands of the association hereafter, because of its sanitary qualities. Another cue roque table was pur chased by the board for the boys' de partment. The one table in this department has become so popular that only a small part of the membership could enjoy it. A prospectus of the plans of the association for the coming fall and winter will be published. The prospectus Mil be illustrated and will also contain short sketches of the different departments. The board also recognized Labor Day by giving the employes in the Spa the privilege to remain at home. The Spa will not be opened Monday. CAPTURE PROBABLE (American News Service) Lewiston, Pa., Sept. 4. The capture of the desperate bandit who held u; and robbed the Pittsburg Express in Lewistown Narrows on the Pennsylvania railroad Tuesday morning is imminent. Four hundred armed men surround the robbers retreat in the mountains three miles from here. The Kettle, a peket in the Mifflin county hills, is believed to be the hiding place of the highwaymen. The "Kettle," is guarded on all sides and an attack will be made on it this forenoon and the bandit either killed or captured. The bold holdup and robbery of Robert F. Little on a road near here, gave the clue. A man without a hat held him up on a mountain road, robbed him of some money and jewelry and at the point of a revolver got Little' hat. The bandit lost his hat at the scene of the holdup on Tuesday and this convinces the detectives thnt the man who held up Little is their quarry. IS IMPROVING FAST William Mills, fireman at No. 1 hose house, who had his right foot mashed by the falling of a ladder at the Catholic church fire on South Fifth street, about ten days ago, is able to be out on the street and is now walking around with the aid of crutches. Mr. Mills' knee and calf of the right leg is also swollen considerably and the injury is a very painful one. It will be several weeks before he will be able to resume his duties again. A Palace on a Blotter. Few are aware that the design of the Crystal palace was first drawn on a sheet of biottlag paper. One Jane moraUg. at Derby, Mr. (afterward Siri Joseph Pax ton took bis place, as chairman of the way and works committee of the Midland railway, to try a paintsman who had failed in his duty. In front of the chairman was spread a large blank piece of blotting paper, and on this Mr. Pax ton scribbed assiduously as one after the other the witnesses delivered their evidence. At the end one of bis colleagues turned to Pax ton and said: "As yon seem to have noted down the whole evidence, we will take the decision from you." The truth is." Paxton whispered, "I know ail about this affair already, having accidentally learned every particular last night. This, he added as he held up the blotting paper, "is not a draft of the pointsman's case, bat a design for that great industrial exhibition building to be erected (1S51) in Hyde park. Eventually, as most people know, this became the palace of glass at Sydenham. London Graphic.

KING OE DENMARK RECEIVED DR. COOK Venerable Monarch Has Private Audience With the Daring Explorer. GIVEN A GREAT OVATION BROOKLYN MAN APPEARED BEFORE DANISH RULER IN ALMOST SAME COSTUME HE WORE ON DASH TO POLE. (American News Service) Copenhagen, Sept. 4. King Freder ick the Eighth of Denmark this afternoon received in private audience Dr. Frederick A. Cook, the American discoverer of the North Pole who arrived here at 10 o'clock this morning by steamer and received the greatest ovation of modern times. Cook, attired in the same clothes which he wore on the southward trip from the pole except furs, and wearing moccasins, was ushered into his royal presence and warmly congratulated as representative of civilization. The king told him he brought glory to himself and his country. The king and a man who once drove a milk wagon for five dollars a week met together on the common ground of science. Will Never Return. Before going to the palace Dr. Cook told newspaper men that he never again would go back to the North Pole. One such experience was sufficient for one life time. Cook reiterated the statement that the careful records he had made with chronometer and sextant and calculations verified by observations and dally diary would amply convince scientists of the genuineness of his discovery. Other explorers would have to make the trip soon to expect to find the flag and brass tube with records inside at the same point where Cook placed them. TRIAL DATE IS SET Springfield Resort Keeper Will Be Arraigned in Cincinnati. GOVERNMENT VERY ACTIVE Nellie Clinger, alias Ada Howard, the Springfield, Ohio, resort keeper, who was arrested earlier In the week on complaint of Postmaster J. A. Spekenhier, for using the mails for obscene purposes, will be tried in the federal court at Cincinnati next Wednesday, according to word received by local authorities. Miss Clinger will be charged with using the mails for obscene purposes, but there Is a question whether her letter to the local young girl, in which she invited her to visit her resort at Springfield, is a violation of the postal laws. Miss Clinger worded the letter very cleverly and there is not a word in the letter which could be taken as obscene. It is the letter itself and its purport on which the affidavit against Miss Clinger was based. In the letter the local young girl, whose name had been given to the Clinger woman, is Invited to come to the Clinger woman's home in Springfield. Springfield is characterized as a lively town. The letter is signed "Your Unknown Friend, Miss Ada Howard." That the federal authorities will use every effort to successfully prosecute the Clinger woman, is evident in their every move so far. An offense such as she was arrested for, usually calls for a ?30O bond. Instead she was placed under $1,000 bond. The government authorities are extremely anxious to win the case for if they do it will establish a precedent. In fact, if the postal authorities make their case against Miss Clinger, it will result in every resort keeper being denied the nse of the mails in respect to reference in their correspondence concerning their business. It will result In the postal and government authorities making a campaign on resort keepers, which will greatly limit their field of operation. ' EtfHtmi.' Tou can't tan wltst Gold Medal IHocr.

Hot words followed, and for about the 'steenth time within the past few weeks the couple engaged in a frantic hair pulling contest in which the dog acted as referee. The pair were finally separated before any serious injury had been inflicted. Prosecutor Ladd listened to their complaints this morning and will probably comply with their requests. 110 ACTION TAKEN At the meeting of tie Whitewater Friends Quarterly conference at East Main street Friends church this morning, the matter of joining with the West Richmond Friends to construct a meeting house on Earlham campus, sufficiently large to accommodate Yearly Meeting assemblages, was declared to be out of the meeting's jurisdiction.

STATED THAT THEIR PRESENCE IN RICHMOND HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE C. eV O. AND THE CiC.iL DEAL. Perhaps it is merely a coincidence that brings W. A. Bradford and Henry C Starr, former president and vlcspresident, respectively, of the C, C. V L. to Richmond a the same time. Nevertheless they are both in the city at present, and when asked if their visit here had any significance or any bearing on the proposed purchase of thJ C, C. & L. by the C. & O. railroad. Mr. Starr stated that it had none whatever. They both denied that they had anything to do with the transaction and neither one knew that the other was in the city until they chanced to meet quite by accident of course) on the street. Mr. Starr stated that the newspapers know more about the C. O. & L. situation than ne does and that he is not at all interested in the matter. Perhaps, also, the earnest conversation between these two ex-railroad officials at the home of Mr. Starr on
North Tenth street this morning was nothing more than a friendly chat over old times perhaps. Mr. Starr declares that he Is In the city on a short visit to his mother, while Mr. Bradford says that he is in Richmond to look after several of his horses In this community. WENT ON STRIKE.
