Six Soldiers Are Known to Have Been Injured in Lat- , est Outrage Occurring in Old Barcelona.

FINE PROGRAM PREPARED

INCIDENT INFLAMED THE REVOLUTIONISTS

Military Patrols Have Been

; Fairly Successful in Preventing the Formation of Any Big Crowds.

(American News Service)

Barcelona, Oct 16. Another bomb

explosion, in which several were Injured, today inflamed the smouldering discontent that has been kept down since

the execution of Francisco Ferrer, only by the rigid enforcement of martial

law.

Six soldiers are known to have been

injured In the latest outrage. It la

probable that several revolutionists a!

so suffered, but were taken away by their friends in the excitement of the

moment. Military patrols have been fairly sue

cessful in preventing the formation of

crowds, but there have been clashes be

tween the people and the police, and

many have been injured. Arrest Dangerous Man.

Bonaventure, one of the victims of

the most Important bomb outrage,

died today. 4 Among the arrests that

have arisen from the outrage, the po

lice have one man who Is said to be the most dangerous of the radical lead

ers. '

The troops are under orders. to ride

down without mercy any manifestants

Theae orders have so far been carried

out-with no Bign ot4iesitancy on the part f the soldiers, In spite of the sto

ries of discontent in the ranks.

A company at least, is stationed In

front of every church, every public building and the residence of every

ecclesiastic and high government off!

cial. Furtlce moves have been made on several of the churches, but the troops have succeeded in holding the

mobs in check, sometimes only by fir

ing on them. Streets Are Camps.

Montjuich fortress, where Ferrer was executed, is the headquarters of the

military now. The reinforcements

that have been sent to the city in the last few days have been quartered there and the streets about the prison

have been turned into camps

The funeral of the teacher whose

death has stirred all Europe has been delayed by the authorities as it is feared that demonstrations will follow any attempt to carry the coffin

through the streets. There are reports In circulation today, but unveri

fled, that the body has been taken to

the civil cemetery already, at night,

end quietly burled.

The attitude of the government,

however, does not indicate such

course has been or is likely to be fol

lowed. The government Is holding the

people in check with an iron hand

and its attitude is marked with insolence. It is probable that when the BChool teacher goes to his grave, the body will be carried openly through the streets under a force heavy enough

in the opinion of the government, to

over-awe the public.

STOUT IS IMPROVED

Frank Stout, the messenger boy, who was run over by an automobile at the

corner of Eleventh and Main streets last Thursday evening, Is recovering

rapidly from his injuries. The Wayne "Works company takes exception to the statement that the boy was run over by one of their testing cars. They

declare that the report was erroneous

and that none of their employes know anything whatever about the accident

ARTHUR A FRAT MAN

Word has been received that Arthur

Curme, Jr., son of Arthur Cunne, Sr.

court reporter, has joined the Phi

Kappa Sigmas, one of the leading fra

ternities of Purdue University, which

Institution he is attending.

VERDICT IS FILED

The verdict of Coroner A. JL Bram

kamp in the death of Lee J. Hodges, a

well known Knightstown young man,

lias been filed with County Clerk Harry E. Penny. Dr. Bramkamp, in his finding says, that Hodges's death was due to the overturning of an automo

bile, driven by the deceased. Hodges

was killed on October 5, near Hlser"

The program for the home coming

of former citizens of Whitewater, to

be celebrated at the Methodist church of that place Sunday, has just been announced by the Rev. Zerbe, who will have charge. Whitewater has achieved an enviable reputation among

the smaller towns of the county for the number of its former residents who have made more than good. Addresses will be given by a number of former citizens.

The program for the event is as fol

lows: Sunday school at 9:30 o'clock; preaching at 10:3O o'clock, by the pastor and the reading of letters received from former citizens, who could not be present. In the afternoon a symposium on the home will be the nature

of the program which includes the fol

lowing addresses: "The Relation of

the Home to the State," County Super

intendent C. W. Jordan; "The Relation

of the Home to the Church," May Sax-

ton; "The Relation of the Home to So

clety," Professor Joseph H. Blose; "The

Relation of the Home to the School,"

Professor Joseph C. Burgess.

PLANS FOR CARE

Of INSANE WILL

BE PUSHED ALONG

After Twenty-five Years of Service at First English Lutheran Will Abandon Musical Activity.

TESTIMONIAL GIVEN TO POPULAR LEADER

Sunday Will Mark Close of Celebration of Twenty-fifth Anniversary of Founding of The Church.

Within the Next Six Months,

Unfortunate Wards of the County Will Be Given Adequate Attention.

INFIRMARYHYILb-BE-

GREATLY IMPROVED

Wards Will Be Built There and

Insane at Friendless Home And Jail Transferred After Completion.

Within six months the county will

have worked out the plans for the care

of the insane along lines suggested by

Amos Butler, secretary of the state board of charities and corrections, as

the county commissioners decided yes

terday upon a visit to the county poor farm to remove the six insane women, now confined at the Home for Friendless, South Tenth street, to the infirm

ary. A local architect will also begin

immediately to draw up plans for tha construction of suitable quarters at the poor farm, which will be adequate for the housing of the insane male and

female wards of the county.

A superintendent will be employed

to care for both the male and female insane. The county will also give medical attention which will equal that given at the state insane institutions.

All Were Pleased. Besides the county commissioners,

Judge Fox of the circuit court; Walter Commons, president of the county council, and Joseph Commons, representative of the board of charities and corrections, with a local architect were present. The county officials were much pleased with the proposed change in the quarters of the insane women, likewise the intention of the board to build an insane ward at the poor farm.

The cost for the insane ward will not

be great, as the commissioners are ad

vised the state will be able to care for the insane within the next six months thus making small quarters entirely adequate. Col. Wiley estimated the amount to be spent at $3,000, but it will depend entirely on the architect's estimate. Following the submitting

of the architect's estimate, the county council will have a called meeting to

allow an appropriation, which will ba

recommended by the commissioners. The residents near the county jail

and Home for Friendless will be much

pleased by the official action. The

peace of these two communities Is oft

en disturbed by the noise of the Insane patients.

Lee B. Nusbaum, who for twentyfive years has been director of the choir of the First English Lutheran church and been prominently identified with other musical propositions

appreciation, which has been framed and hung in the church. The choir

had charge of the services last even

ing in the week's celebration of the

evening was very large and appreciat

ed the program greatly. Testimonial to Nusbaum.

The testimonial presented to Mr.

Nusbaum is as follows:

Slntl-fe0 years through

practically the entire history of this congregation, Lee B. Nusbaum has

served without compensation as director of this choir. He has thus render

ed unique and inestimable service in the church. He has established the

reputation of the choir as one of the leading musical organizations of the

city. He has exacted a marked influ

ence in promoting the musical culture of the community. He has been a large factor in the progress of the congregation, assisting greatly in its worship, disseminating through the power of choral mission, the message and spirit of God's word and developing the gift of sacred song among its

members.

"With unabated energy, with excep

tional ability and with fideity and

devotion of a high order he has been

a notable example of public spirit

"We praise God for the talents so

freely bestowed and so lavishly used

by him and we bear this, our willing

testimony to his inspiring leadership and extend to him this assurance of our sincere appreciation and our entire confidence and our abiding affection. Earnestly do we pray that God's continuing favor may rest upon him and that he may enjoy for many years the fruits of his untiring endeavor."
