CALM WHITEWATER', WAS RAGING RIVER; OP TO HIGH MARK

However, the Danger of Flood Is Now Passed, Owing to the Fact That the Rain Did Not Continue. RESIDENTS OF HAPPY HOLLOW HAD A SCARE Early Sunday Morning There Was a Few Inches of Water in Boiler Room of L., H. & P. Company flant. Had the rain of yesterday aud last night continued for several hours longer, it is estimated that the damage done by the high waters would lave reached thousands of dollars. The usually peaceful Whitewater river was a raging torrent last night and It is said by an employe of the Richmond Light. Heat & Power company plant that the water reached a higher stage yesterday than it had in two or three years. Although no damage was done to the plant, the water stood to a depth of several inches in the boiler room and threatened to reach the flood stage at one time. Toward evening the residents of Happy Hollow began to pack their household goods and prepare for a move out, as it was expected at any moment that the water would overflow its banks and cause great destruction of property in that neighborhood. However, the rain stopped before the high, water mark was reached and no damage was done, so far as could be learned. The fastest raise was last evening, between 6:30 and 8 o'clock, when the water came up eight inches. Back to Normal Now. Today the river has dropped back to about normal, only being up a few Inches above the average this afternoon, it is said. The rainfall yesterday was 1.34 inches, which is a record breaker for this season, in respect to amount for one day. It has been some time since a similar amount of dampness has fallen in this locality within twenty-four hours time. With the melting snow and heavy rain the river soon got busy and reached the high stage in a few hours. The rain of yesterday was a blessing in one respect, however, in that it cleaned the streets and sidewalks of the disagreeable slush and caused the snow to disappear almost like magic. The rainfall for the last week was .07 of an inch. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday were the coldest days of the week, the mercury sliding down the tube to the 2 degree above mark, on each of those days. Saturday the 26th was the warmest when the 45 degree mark was attained. There were four clear days during the week. The daily temperature was as follows: High Low Sunday.. 43 4 Monday 10 P.2 Tuesday 36 24 Wednesday 32 2 Thursday 20 2 Friday 27 2 Saturday 45 21 Invitations have been sent to hundreds of well-known Parisians by Mile. Solange Siccard, the little daughter of the famous doctor, who desired her friends to attend the ceremony of "naming" her new doll. The party was a great success, where the big children had quite as merry a time as the little ones. The doll was "named" Ileloise Berthe with due ceremony. GET POWER The Supply Comes From Food. If we get power from food, why not strive to get all the power we can. That is only possible by use of skillfully selected food that exactly fits the requirements of the body. Poor fuel makes a poor fire and a poor fire is not a good steam producer. "From not knowing how to select the right food to fit my needs, I suffered grievously for a long time from stomach troubles," writes a lady from a little town in Missouri. "It seemed as if I would never be able to find out the sort of food that was best for me. Hardly anything that I could eat would stay on my stomach. Every attempt gave me heart-burn and filled my stomach with gas. I got thinner and thinner until I literally became a living skeleton and in time was compelled to keep to my bed. "A few months ago I was persuaded to try Grape-Nuts food, and it had such good effect from the very beginning that I have kept up its use ever since. I was surprised at the ease with which I digested it. It proved to be Just what I needed. "All my unpleasant symptoms, the heart-burn, the inflated feeling which gave me so much pain disappeared. My weight gradually increased from 98 to 116 lbs., my figure rounded out, my strength came back, and I am now able to do my housework and enjoy it. Grape-Nuts did it" A ten days trial will show anyone come facts about food. Look in pkgs. for the little book, "The Road to Wellville." "There's a Reason." Ever read the above letter? A new one appears from time to time. They re genuine, true, and full of human Interest.

Bishop Favors a Model Saloon Like the Late Bishop Potter, Bishop Gore of England Shocks Ecclesiastical Workers by His Ideas.

(Special Cable from the International News Service.) (BY HERBERT TEMPLE.) London, Feb. 28. Like the late Bishop Potter of New York some years before his death, Bishop Gore of Birmingham has shocked the ecclesiastical work by advocating the introduction into England of the model saloon, instead of trying the impossible by forcing the English people to become tee-totallers. In a sermon the other day Bishop Gore spoke with admiration of the saloons as he had found them in Spain, and said, that, in his opinion, England could do nothing better than introduce the same kind of public taverns. He said he had recently visited Barcelona, and the thing which struck him as specially delightful was the public houses. He sat for a long time on several occasions in an immense room, in which he supposed there were about 1,000 people drawn from all classes. A good many of them were mechanics, who Aery often wore their blouses. They were there with their wives and families, and were drinking all sorts of things. He asked himself every time he went to the house: "Is not this sort of place of public resort and public refreshment and public amusement entirely desirable?" Dr. Gore went on to say that he had been a visitor at this public house on Sundays and on week days, and he had not seen or heard or looked on anything that was not entirely desirable. What was there in the nature of things why we could not have exactly this kind of place of public amusement and recreation, this kind of public house, with regard to which no one would feel the slightest desire for any legislation to restrict the liberty of women or children or anybody else to go into it? At present he was persuaded that the proportion of people who really set themselves to obtain actual knowledge of the things which threaten the social welfare at the foundation was too busy. He wanted all citizens to consider it to be their duty to give some real amount of time to studying the great and fundamental dangers to our social life and to remedying them. In a room at the Liverpool university sits a man who is enduring something of the rigours of an Arctic climate. Whatever may be the varying temperature of the fickle English atmosphere, he is experiencing one steady, consistent period of cold. Indeed, during the day the temperature of his room is considerably below zero. He is a victim of the dreaded tropical disease of sleeping sickness, and as he is putting to the best practical test a novel cold-air treatment for tropical diseases taken in hand by the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, he is a source of daily interest to the professors of the school, who have spent years in combating the baneful effect of blood parasites. Most of the experiments for fighting this peculiar sickness have been carried out on the spot in the tropics, and it is not an unreasonably suggestion that if parasites, even when they have entered the blood of a human being, are removed from the warm climate where they start their deadly operations and transferred to a climate of an extremely opposite character, they may by this simple operation be annihilated. If the method should prove successful it would mean the establishment of huge refrigerators at all the European stations in tropical countries in which a victim would be installed in the early stages of sleeiing sickness. There is a reason to believe that some of Lord Charles Beresford's utterances on service matters during and previous to the general election approach dangerously near, if they did not overstep, the line that separates what is permissible from that which no officer on the active list can be allowed to publish. The remarks for instance, which pointed to the contingency of revealing facts which could only have been known to Lord Charles Beresford in his official position as Commander-in-chief, have been the subject of much discussion in service circles. It is understood that the matter has also been tinder the consideration of the admiralty. Any attempt to repeat in parliament the charges and allegiations uttered when Lord Charles was setting into parliament "somehow," will certainly lead to a rejoinder on the part of the government that they may not be without effect on Lord Charles Beresford's future career. Opened in 17S3 by the famous Rowland Hill, and for fifty years the scene of his unremitting lpjjours. the Old Surrey Chapel, at the corner of Blackfriars road and Union street, is being converted into an "electric theater" for cinematograph exhibitions. Standing on a spot where Rowland Hill said "the devil had the strongest hold in South London," the chapel is circular in shape. When asked why it was built in such a form. Hill gave the reply, "so that the devil shall not have a corner in it." The first ragged school in London was started at the Surrey Chapel by a sailor named Cranfield, who had fought at the siege of Gibraltar, and was then working as a tailor. In it was also held the first Sunday school in London and the Religious Tract society was initiated there. When Rowland Hill died, in 1S33, he was buried under the pulpit in the chapel. His successor, Newman Hill, obtained funds for the erection of Christ church, Westminister-bridge road, as it was doubtful whether the lease for 100 years would be renewed, and in 1876 he and the old Surrey Chapel congregation migrated to Christ church. There was still four and a half years of the lease to run. and. the Primitive Methodists carried

on the service, but as the ground landlords declined to tell the free hold or to let the building under a rental of 15,000 a year, it had to be given up in 1S82. The remains of Rowland Hill were removed to Christ church, Westminister-bridge road in 1SS1. ! Since that time the old chapel has ( been let for engineering works and af- ; terwards for the manufacture of elecitric motors, but for some time it has

been vacant. IAFT DRAWN INTO BALLINSER CASE; SECRETARY ANGRY (Continued From Page One.) general, before making any decision as to Ballinger's conduct. When the letter was issued exonerating the secretary of the interior, the president stated that he and the attorney general had considered every phase of the case, and found Secretary Ballinger a "friend of conservation" and a worthy public servant. The assurance with which Mr. Pinchot has now charged Ballinger with various degrees and deceit and wrongdoing have caused the greatest alarm in administration circles. The congressional committee may find itself entirely helpless in the effort to conduct the hearing without bringing the president into the limelight. There are strong rumors in Washington of other charges impending in the cabinet besides the retirement of Secretary Ballinger. It is considered impossible for the president to retain Mr. Ballinger, unless the Pinchot charges fail completely, and the testimony thus far introduced does not indicate that they will so fail. Wilson May be Drawn In. Although the committee may not find that the testimony is such as to convict Mr. Ballinger of willful mismanagement of his office, his connection with the administration has brought it into such controversy that his retirement is apparently certain. The introduction of a second cabinet officer, Secretary Wilson, into the controversy, is expected at any moment, through the effort of Mr. Pinchot to prove that his superior offered no objection to the letter which was written to Pinchot to Senator Dolliver and upon which President Taft based his charges of insubordination when he dismissed Pinchot from the service. The administration forces are far from united upon the plan that President Taft has followed in support of his secretary of the interior. It is understood that the president is as greatly embarrassed by the condition within his cabinet as by the external developments of the investigation.

WATER LEVEL OF STATE BECOMING LOWER ANNUALLY (Continued on Page Seven.) sponsible to some extent for the difficulties of the water works. Another cause for the shortage, he said, was found in the awful waste of water. Allow Wells to Flow. Hundreds of flowing wells in Indiana have been allowed to flow continuously at their full capacity and the water has run off into the streams, to be carried out to the sea. But where many of the wells flowed for years they are now flowing no longer, and it is necessary to pump from them to get their water. This is proof that the water level is lowering all the time. Mr. Brossnian pointed to Marion as one of the most wasteful cities in the state with its water supply. There is a big well in Matter park at Marion which flowed a gigantic stream for years, but in the last three or four years it has stopped flowing entirely, simply because the people did not try to save the water and protect the supply. If this surplus water had been used for irrigation instead of being wasted it would have done a great deal of good. To show that the water level of the state has dropped. Mr. Brossnian preseented figures showing the conditions at various Indiana towns. These places have water works, and the figures presented show how much deeper they have to pump their water now than they did in other years. Here are the figures as Mr. Brossman presented them: Some Examples Given. Kentland, the water level dropped forty-eight feet in five years. Elwood, forty feet in twelve years. Greensburg, forty feet drop in ten years. Indianapolis, thirty-five feet drop in twenty years. Muncie, twenty-eight feet drop, number of years not given. Remington, eight feet drop in ten years. Marion, six feet drop In twenty years. Butler, four feet drop in ten years. Bourbon, three feet drop in eight and a half years. Linton, some wells have dropped thirty feet in six years. Kokonio. some wells have dropped fifteen feet since 1X3. In speaking of the cause of the disappearance of water Mr. Brossnian

Senator James Gordon of Mississippi, who recently delivered a memorable farewell address in the United States at the expiration of his term. He named Rockefeller and paid a glowing tribute to the United States senate, saying "Tfcis is the finest body of men that I have ever associated with." His successor is Senator Earl Percy, who was recently elected by the state legislature, after a deadlock of two months. said: "To what can the decrease in the water supply be attributed? It seems foolish to blame it on forest destruction, as in numerous places where the water was considerably nearer the surface ten years ago, there were no forests. "I am of the opinion that the drainage of farm lands has much more to do with the rapid conveyance of rainfall than has tLe destruction of the forests. There is no reason why cultivated land growing various grains corn, etc., should not help retain as much water, ar nearly as much as the ordinary woodland. But the water is drained from the ground to the nearest stream as quickly as possible. The writer has seen farms drained underlying which was a splendid strata of gravel, ordinarily taking care of the greater portion of the water. Not Versed in Farming. Whether or not it is better to get so much water away from such land as quickly as possible, I am unable to say, not being versed in the art of farming, but I am of the opinion that the drainage of farm lands is an important factor, if not the chief cause, of the reduction and the lowering of the underground water supply." Mr. Brossman did not offer any remedy for this condition, however. He merely pointed out what he believed to be the cause of the trouble and left the matter with the water people to figure out for themselves. But it was apparent from the general run of the discussion at the convention that with the rapid disappearance of the underground water supply must come a more general use of surface water from streams, ponds and lakes for public use, and the water works people and the experts present gave much attention to the best means of purifying such water so as to. make it fit for use. ACED WOMEN'S HOME Is the Beneficiary Named in the Will of the Late Mrs. Lembarger. WILL AMOUNT TO $1,705 The Margaret Smith Home for Aged Women was made the beneficiary of the estate of the late Elizabeth Lembarger, of Cambridge City, who died several months ago. According to the report of Charles Lembarger, executor, of the will, Mrs. Lembarger bequeathed all her estate to the home after her debts had been paid and certain provisions for relatives carried out. Insofar as the relatives of the decedent are concerned, the provisions of the will have been exercised and the board of directors of the Margaret Smith Home have accepted the bequest of $1.7r.C As much of Mrs. Lembarger's estate was in mortgages, the board of directors of the institution accepted the greater portion of the bequest in a mortgage, securing but approximately $'44 in actual money. CLOSING RETREAT. The closing retreat service at St. Andrew's church was held yesterday afternoon and attended by several hundred of the younger members of the church. Rev. T. P.

JEKYLL AI1D HYDE EXCELLENT ROLE FOB THIS ACTOR

H. R. Royer, Head of Barnstorming Company, Arrested Here on a Charge of Embezzlement, Yesterday. HIS FELLOW ACTORS THOUGHT HIM HONEST It Is Alleged the Man Is Wanted at Indianapolis, Muncie and Hagerstown Confesses to Guilt. Impersonating a double character in real life, the role cf "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde." in the play of that name, featurea by the Jordon Dramatic comI)an" A trmmp nf ham ctnrmore u-Vit-. ! hit this city Saturday night and registered at the Central House, admirably suited H. It. Royer, the star performer, who was arrested yesterday by the local police and is now being held on the charge of embezzlement. Not until the man's apprehension were the other members of the troupe aware of j nis alleged crookedness, it is said, and the clever manner in which Royer lead a dual life for many weeks was a great sutpri.se to his associates in the company. Hover was arrested yesterday afternoon by Patrolmen Staubach and Vogelsong at the instigation of W. G. Harris, of Chicago, manager of the circulation department of the State of Indiana for the "Woman's World," a monthly publication. Royer is wanted in Hagerstown, Muncie and Indianapolis, there being forty cases of etnI bezzlement against the man in the lat ter city, it is said. Other Actors Aided Him. His method of operation consists in soliciting subscriptions for "The Woman's World." collecting the money and never sending the subscriptions in to the concern. He obtained, it is said, about fifteen subscribers for the magazine during the short time that he was in Richmond, by offering the publication at a ridiculously low price. Members of the man's own company, supposing him to be the authorized agent, aided him in making a canvass of the city, turning the money which they had collected, over to him, unaware of the fact that he was an imposter. and appropriating the money thus irtrusted to him, to his own personal t'.se. When confronted by Mr. Harris, Royer dropped his bold front and confessed that he was not th3 authorized agent for the magazine and had not sent in the subscriptions which he had secured. Mr. Harris stated that he had been tracing Royer for some time. In some manner he learned that the man was to be in Richmond yesterday and he came to this city to notify the officers to apprehend the alleged embezzler. Five other members of the dramatic company were closely questioned and claimed that they thought the man was acting in good faith. Wanted at Indianapolis. Mr. Harris declared that Royer was badly wanted at Indianaiwlis,' where he has operated extensively. It is said that he can be tried in that city on forty different cases of embezzlement. He will prt bably be returned to Indianapolis thit- afternoon for trial. Seveial days ago Chief of Police Gormon received a communication from W. E. Duff of Chicago to the effect that a similar game to that worked by Royer was also being operated in this state on the magazine "Home Life." It is thought by the police that this was Royer also, although he confined bis subscriptions, while in this city, to "The Woman's World." Royer claims that his home in in Noblesville. Ind. He has been traveling with the Jordon Dramatic company for several weeks, but somehow the public didn't properly appreciate his company and the acting business had not been a howling success. In order to pay expenses and keep alive, he resorted to the swindle which eventually resulted in his detection and arrest. T Lincoln M. Popposs of Pleven, Bulgaria, who is in this city learning business conditions, and who is connected with the Gaar. Scott & Company, was taken into the membership of the First M. E. church yesterday.

ROMAIi METHODIST CHURCH A SUCCESS

Pastor Says This Is Shown by the Pope-Fairbanks Incident, Recently. REPUDIATES THE CHARGE THAT UNDUE PROSELYTING HAS BEEN PRACTICED IN ITALY A LARGE CONGREGATION HEARS THE SERMON. Rome, Feb. 28 The American Methodist church was crowded Sunday the congregation including tnanv American visitors, who were attracted by tho subject of Pastor B. M. Tipple s sermon. "Why Methodism is in Rome.? It was in the American Methodist churcii that former Vice President Charles W. Fairbanks delivered the address which shut him off from being received in audience by the Pope, an incident which has created much discussion in Rome as well as in the I'nited States. Dr. Tipple said the Methodist church was meeting with great success throughout Italy. Such an inference could be drawn from the extraordinary action of the Vatican with regard to the proposed visit of ex-Vice President Fairbanks to the Pope, and also from the bitter resentment of Catholic clergy. As Mr. Fairbanks sKke in the American Methodist church, he said, it was fitting that from the same pulpit the c harges preferred against Methodism in Italy should be considered. "With reference to the assertion that Methodists have no right to be in Italy," faid the preacher, "the answer is that we are here under the Italian laws, guaranteeing religious freedom. "Another assertion by the Catholics is that Methodism is not needed in Italy. But Methodists believe that the need is urgent, as the Catholic church is always more efficient for good when compelled to compete with aggressive Protestantism, as evidenced conspicuously in America. "Th Catholic church suffers embarrassment when it is required to satisfy the ideals of a great liberty-loving republic contemporaneously with heeding the demands of the Vatican, which is still bound by the ideals of the middle ages. This is proved by the experience of Archbishop Ireland, when he was here a year ago studying the Methodist propaganda. "A great Lincoln banquet was ar ranged by the American colony. Very properly Archbishop Ireland was asked to speak. Very properly, as a patriotic American citizen, he accepted the invitation But suddenly the good Archbishop recalled his acceptance. "The Vatican had forbidden him to speak or attend the banquet because a toast to President Roosevelt was followed I y a toast to the king of Italy. "Italy needs Methodism because it is no longer Catholic, except in name. The charge of Methodist proselyting is foolish Their hands are full in dealing with unbelievers.

"It is true that the Methodiat feav ex-priests among the workers, but none has been actively sought. The Methodist schools are full because the children's parents select them as the best. "The issue In Italy today Is not protestantism versus Catholicism, but faith versus athkism. Archbisbxm Ireland has said that every convert to Methodism costs $1,. If that is true, cannot the American Methodists better afford to pay it than every three Italian laborers who carry one priest V The pastor urged that Archbishop Ireland specify the dishonorable Methodists here, and added: "It is playing with fire for the Catholic church to open the subject of moral methods in Italy."
