FB1ED CIIICKEU A FEATURE OF MEIIU Protestant ministers Picnic at the Gten and Devoured Eight Fowls. VERY ENJOYABLE AFFAIR

AT Bf ALLVIEW PARK YESTERDAY THE ANNUAL PICNIC OF 8T, ANDREWS SCHOOL AND PARISH WAS HELD. Members of the ministerial assocla tlon and their families held their an nual picnic at Glen Miller park yesterday. There were about fifty peoplz present. The time was spent in a so cial manner. All of the Protestant churches were represented. At noon a picnic dinner was served in the open and because of the gener oslty of friends' of Dr. Addison Parker, former pastor of the First Baptist church, the menu was featured with fried and baked chicken. Eight fowls altogether were devoured. There was an abundance of many other good things to eat. Dr. I. M. Hughes, the oldest member of the association, pro nounced the Invocation. In the afternoon there was a variety of amusements. Some of the ministers played volley ball and pitched horse shoes, while croquet games were going all the time. Others spent the time In social Catherines while the children for the most part found amusement in the zoo. A Beallvlew Outing. At Beallvlew nark yesterday was held the annual outing of the school children of St. Andrew's parochial school. It was also attended by many members of the parish. Dinner and supper were served. There were about five hundred present during the after noon, but It is believed that the total attendance was muchr greater than this, as people were constantly coming and coins to and from the park. The amusements were' varied and thorough ly enjoyed by all. Some of the more popular games were baseball, racing, and the like. 6t. John's Lutheran parochial school and pariBh will hold its annual picnic at Beallvlew park on July 4. It is ex pected that several hundred will at tend. Arrangements are being made to make this the most enjoyable affair ever held by the school. POLITICS III THE HOOSIER STATE A THEME FOR BLITHE (Continued From Page One.) was pretty reasonably sure that Mr. Thomas Taggart had handed one on Governor Marshall and on John Lamb, and on a few others. . I have no In- ' formation on the subject, but it is a good political guess that Mr. Thomas Taggart never , was a bonafide candl- . date' for senator, and that he had , Kern up his sleeve air the time. At any rate, even if he was a candidate and couldn't win, he did the next best thing and boomed one of his own people. - , In Indiana, afe in Ohio and elsewhere, the election is sure to be complicated by the liquor question. So far as a general political article is concerned a discussion of the Intricacies of that question Is about, as useful as a discussion of whether Halley"s comet has a tail Back of every republican movement In Indiana and back of every democratic movement there always lurks some phase of the liquor question. It is ubiquitous. It percolates .Into every proposition. ; Every body is afraid of what the liquor men will do and afraid of what they won't do. The same is true with the "drys." No doubt the election will be influenced one way or another by it, but to say which way takes a better guesser than I am. for it is the truth that the liquor question never is answered . ; the way it Is mapped out to be answered at the polls by the political wise men of the states where it is asked.

He did not don the cap and gown, to which the degrees bestowed upon him by many universities entitle him, but wore a black frock coat and silk hat. It was "Roosevelt of .the class of lSS0.".and he had a busy time shaking hand! with old college friends. ' Other distinguished guests also were within the university halls, and when the great audience in Sanders Theater saw Governor Charles E. Hughes, of New York, stand to receive an nonary degree, It burst into great cheers and applause. J. Pierpont Morgan, New York financier, and General Horace Porter, former Ambassador to France, also were awarded honorary degrees. Nearly a thousand young men received their diplomas. ICE CREAM SUPPER.

Richmond Woman and Daughter Were Graduated In the Same: Class

' Ann Arbor, Mich., June 30. Mrs. Amy Carroll of Richmond. InL, and her daughter Mabel, graduated this month in the same class from the University of Michigan. They entered the university two years ago with enough credits from an Indiana college to admit them to the junior class and will receive the degree of bachelor of arts. A son, Ray Carroll', who entered the same course and with the same credits as his mother and sister, changed to a course In engineering. But for the change, he also would receive this year the degree of bachelor of arts. There is still another member of the Carroll family who Is a student in this city. Miss Celia Carroll, who the day before her mother and sister graduated from the university, was given a diploma from the Ann Arbor "High School. She is one of the honor pupils in her class and will enter the University of Michigan next autumn. Such a combination never has ' been known before in the university. . , ;

EXCELLENT WORK WAS DOME BY THE COMMERCIAL CLUB (Continued from Page One.) corporation tax law, and for the conservation measures, for holding the Panama exposition at New Orleans, and many other minor matters. State Legislation. The club passed strong resolutions indorsing the movement for a uniform accounting law. It urged the Wayne county members of the legislature to aid in its passage. It gave its influence against the bill prohibiting the pumping of natural gas which, if passed, would have stopped the supply of gas for the city, and would have been a hardship on many of our citizens. Through the efforts of the club, the McGlnnis bill, enacted at the last session of the legislature, was so modified as to give to the citizens of Richmond a possible expenditure of half a million dollars. This was the bill pre pared by the State Board of Health, and is known as the stream pollution law. It provided that no city could empty its sewage into a stream with out filtering, and it would have been necessary for the city to build a large trunk sewer down the bed of the Whitewater, intercepting all the sew ers entering the ri ver, and carry the J sewage down stream for several miles where it would have been possible to build a filtration plant. Municipal Work. The club has always had'a lively in terest in all municipal matters that affected the welfare of the city. It has always endeavored to co-operate with the city authorities in this respect, never dictating, but rather advising and counseling with them, and helping them to develop correct public sentlment. , The subject that has engaged the club most largely along this line has been the matter of better fire protec tion for the city. When the Insurance companies re-rated Richmond, and fix ed rates at almost a prohibitive point In many instances, the club sought the causes of these raises. A commit tee was appointed on fire protection which gave a great deal of time to the subject, and much has already been accomplished, but much remains to do. The work of the committee was divided and put In charge of three sub committees, and the amount and value of the work done by these committees can scarcely be fully appreciated by the public. Public Service Corp. The club has influenced municipal action, as well as the action of the companies themselves, of practically every public service corporation doing business in the city. In each case the results accomplished have been of Immense importance to the city. When the proposition was submitted by the competing company of our municipal light plant to make an investigation -which had for its purpose, the sale of the plant to a foreign corporation, it was the positive position that the club took in the matter that caused the promoters of the proposition to abandon this plan, and leave the city. The resolution passed by the club, and signed by every member, asking council to pass an ordinance to compel all wires on Main street to be put underground, as well as all wooden poles to be removed, resulted In the passage of the ordinance, and the city is rid of the tangle of wires and un sightly poles on Main street. The club asaed ror a moamcauon of the proposed franchise of the Nat ural Gas company to manufacture artificial gas. While the club would be glad to have competition In the manufacture of artificial gas, the terms of the franchise seemed unfavorable to the city, and the council refused to ratify it. The club has done much to extricate the city from the embarrassing predicament It had gotten into with the interurban and city street car companies. Interurban freight cars had been prohibited by injunction to enter the city, and shippers were compelled for many months to haul freight to the city limits to be loaded and unloaded. This was not only Expensive, but tremendously inconvenient.' Passenger cars on the Dayton & Western were also prohibited from entering the city, adding great inconvenience ; to the traffic The outcome of the strenuous efforts of the club to relieve the intolerable condition, resulted in the restoration of freight and passenger traffic, witb added conveniences. The club has been agitating the making of a new water works fran ..HOT.. Weather is a sure sign that your horse needs a cool feed.

chise so that the city might have better fire protection and cheaper insur

ance rates. Railroad Work. While the club has given some at tention to freight rates and various other matters pertaining to shipping, its principal work in this connection has been to secure a practical interchange of freight between the two roads entering the city. This : effort dates back over three years. Owing to the determined opposition of the Pennsylvania railroad and the many delays of the courts, the matter is still unsettled. IS UP AGAINST IT (American News Service) San Antonio, Texas, June 30. Hard ly a day passes without Postmaster Stevens of this city receiving a letter in which some fair damsel asks him to find her a cowboy husband. The last applicant for a sure-enough cowboy is Florence Dorsti, a St Louis belle, nineteen, brown hair, blue eyes, fair complexion, five feet five, and a weight of a scant 115 pounds. Miss Dorsti is looking for a good home and will marry the right party.. She has written to the postmaster before, but possibly, as she explains, has been overlooked. This time she wants him to advertise in the paper having the largest circulation, setting forth among other things that she is a good cook and can do housework, is in short, though she is too modest to even hint at it, the very kind of a girl that a cowboy or any other sort of boy would Le looking for. Of course Postmaster Stevens is quite willing to do all he can, but there is so little he can. Cowboys are getting extremely scarce in and around this city, some prosiac cowpunchers around the stock yards duly excepted. But with the latter John is not able to do much, most of them being latter day plebes addicted to the use of chewinsr tobacco and strong drink. There are in this city also a few Sunday cowboys who chew gum, use hair oil and have their mugs massaged at the beauty parlors. All this places Postmaster Stevens in a tight fix and he would appreciate very much if the maidens looking for cowboy and other husbands would pass him up. He suggests that all those who nave contemplated writing to him address the postmasters at points closer to the cattle country, that being West and South of here. v Bismarck on Women In .Polities. Some interesting observations ot Prince Bismarck on female, suffrage have come to light. Of women in politico be said: "We men are all clumsy. We Germans especially are always ungainly bears, even diplomatists. Moreover, much less would be made public, for a sensible woman's mouth can. keep silence. On the other hand, ; it can draw from an opponent in a tone of harmless chatter many a secret that he would not give up to us men. Woman's mouth chats so ingratiatingly on most difficult subjects that we t never notice, old donkeys that we are, that we have told them more than we in tended to, for everything that is feminine beats us in cunning." London Telegraph. . Primrose Salad. The primrose is only one of the many flowers which graced the salad of the past. The old time cook looked upon both flower garden and kitchen garden with the same calculating eye. Of herbs all were seized thyme, rosemary, marjoram, basil, lavender. And of flowers the rose, the violet, the cowslip, the primrose, the lily of the valley, were never safe from the pot hunter. Then there were the roots and buds of the fields. Elder tops, burdock roots, "ashkeys," broom buds all, indeed, were good that came to the cook. The flowers he used for coloring sirups and custards. The roots he pickled. And his "sallets" comprised everything plantllke. Today the fittest survive. London Spectator- -

THOSE CAR TRACKS

WORRY THE BOARD Officials Bound and Determined to Have Tracks Taken from Glen. WANT COMMANDS HEEDED AN EARLY SETTLEMENT OF PRO POSED VACATION OF NORTH F STREET IS ANTICIPATED BY THE BOARD. City Attorney Gardner told the board of works this morning that he had been notified by officials of the Terre Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern that on account of the absence in Europe of Ferd Winters, their attorney, they desired no action in the matter of the removal of tracks from the Glen until his return. This information, was not satisfactorv. and the board in structed him to communicate with the officials and demand immediate action. Otherwise suit will be brought against the traction company. A contract was let this morning for the construction of a sewer in the alley north of North I street, connecting the Eighth and Tenth street lines. John F. Cronin was the lowest bidder, his figure of $1.78 per lineal foot being exactly the figure in the estimate Drenared by City Engineer Fred Charles. The question of the extension of the waterworks mains on Sherman street between Boyer and Sheridan, in. Fairview was brought up again. Howard Dill, superintendent of the water comnany stated that the company could not make the extension on the oasis or the business promised. The length of the proposed new line is t50 feet, and thi nnssihle revenue but $49. The matter was laid over until the meetin; of the board on next Tuesday. An early settlement of the vacation of North F street for the benefit of Gaar, Scott and company Is expected, and next week the board of works In tends visiting the plant, and in com pany with a representative of the remonstrators, assess the damages and benefits. The Fort Wayne attorney of the American Telephone and Telegraph company will be here, and the matter of choosing a ,route for the trunk lines of that system will be considered. At Local Theaters At the Murray. In spite of the warm weather, attendance at -the Murray is good. Indicative both of the efforts put forth by the management to make the house comfortable and the market merits of the bill. Nan Aker and her large number of performers in the ventriloquistic sketch, entitled "On the B. & O." affords abundant comedy, some of the 'figures almost appearing living realities. Miss Aker is so expert in her talking that few realize that she really does the mystifying stunt. The Hall sisters with singing and dancing have a pleasing act. The mysterious sphere is a surprise and many wonder what would happen if the steel ball rolled too rapidly on its downward course. The Standard Four are delighting all by their exception ally well rendered musical numbers as well aa the comedy introduced. The motion picture is a story that gives all the true idea of a real hero even if 'the hero is only a small boy. Violet Dulee Talcum The new talcum powder with a sweet violet odor.

Supreme Court

From The . Springfield. TIL, June 30. The Supreme court of Illinois ' has decided that religious exercises consisting of the reading of the Bible, singing and prayer, cannot be held in the public schools of this state during the time pupils are required to be Jn attendance. The decision was handed down in the case of the Catholic residents of Winchester, Scott county, who had protested against religious exercises held in the school of that district. Their application for a writ of mandamus to require the board of education to discontinue the religious service had been denied in the lower court, but the Su preme court upholds their contention and directs the writ to issue. The opinion in the case, is written by Justice Dunn. Justices Cart w right and Hand dissent, but have not yet filed their dissenting opinion. The majority opinion is a lengthy document reciting much of history of the separation of church and state and quoting at length from various authorities in support of the decision. The petition In the case set up that the pupils at the school were required each day to hear portions read from the King James version of the Bible, that they recited the King James ver-, sion of the Lord's Prayer, and they j sang in concert sacred hymns, one of which was mentioned, "Grace Enough for Me." "The exercises mentioned," the court says "constitute worship. They are the ordinary forms of worship usually practiced by Protestant Christian denominations. Their compulsory performance would be a violation of the constitutional guarantee of the free exercise and enjoyment of religious profession and worship. One does not enjoy the free exercise of religious worship who is compelled to join In any form of religious worship. "If the exercises of reading the Bible, joining In prayer and the singing of hymns were performed in a church there would be no doubt of their religious character, and that character is not changed by -the place of their performance. If the petitioners' children are required to join in the acts of wor ship, as alleged in the petition, against their consent and against the wishes Years of experience have given me the right to use the term EXPERT as applied to Watch and Jewelry Repairing.
