FOUR BILLS WILL " BE ENTERED FOR THE RAILWAY MEN

Measures " Require Experienced Men, Standard Caboose, Boiler Inspection, Full Switch Crews. (Continued from. fas One.) rared for because of cramped conditions. Caboose conditions on sonic of the lines In Indiana are not bad. The New York Central lines use the standard caboose quite generally, and many re In service on the Vandal! and Pennsylvania lines. Hammond a Trainman. Tbe bill backed by the brotherhood win introduced in the house on Wednesday by Representative Hammond of Peru, for thirty years a trainman. It provides for the 60-ton caboose standardized by tbe Master Car Builders' association. The bill is drawn up to be favorable to the railroads, as It gives three years for roads to meet requirements. It provides that in case of disablement of the small caboose. It .Khali be replaced with a standard r.atxse. The railroad commission is allowed to give further extension than the three years If It sees fit. A penalty of $100 to $500 la attached. The boiler Inspection bill is aimed to decrease the number of fatalities from explosion of locomotive boilers. The explosion of a boiler Is invariably the cause of both engineer and fireman being killed, and it. Is the belief of the trainmen that Inspection by competent men would practically eliminate the danger. The bill hat not been Introduced In either house, but will give the railroad commission the power to appoint several Inspectors, at the need arises, who must have had a half doien years actual experience in boiler making. Bill Before Congress. 'A similar measure, tbe appointing power conferred lying with the Interstate commerce commission, is before congress at present, and haa every promise of passing. This week it was reported favorably In the senajte. The Indiana bill Is receiving tbe active support of all trainmen'a organisation Tbe cause of the majority of boiler explosions. It is argued, is the plugged flue. If an engine Is not'' properly cleaned, as many as thirty or forty flues become slopped up. and when the engine gets on the road under full steam the boiler lots go. The full swltchtnt; crew bill Is along the lines of the full crew laws already ion the books. It. provides that a witching crew nvast have engineer, fireman, conductor And two helpers. The brotherhood biH many agreements for a full switching crew with Indiana roads, but washes to extend these to all roads and make it compulsory, rendering agreements needless. In making up and breaking up trains in yards, the conductor must keep a list of his cars constantly In band. If he also haa th task of makinr cuts, turnfne- switches, signalling, nd other such duties, he must wor unaer a rushed and unsafe condition, climbing over cars, running between them, and incurring many risks. With only one helper, if the train is of any slie, both men are required to do more than is possible under safe conditions. Safety of the crews is believed of sufficient importance In proportion to risk, to make tho law justifiable. Tbe bill was introduced Wednesday In the nenate "by Senator Clark of Indlanapolf. Wants All Passed. Mr. Felck Is hopeful of getting all four bills through without much trouble. He has notified committees which ill consider tnainmen's legislation that It is his wish that the railroads themselves be given hearings equal to the employes, and he has emphasised that the bills as drawn are drafted with the railroads' Interest fully considered and cared for In all fairness.

Conkey Drug Co. Y. M C. A. BENEFIT Standing room only could be secured at tbe Gennctt theater last evening when "The Mock Trial" was presented under the ausnices of the Ladles' Auxiliary of the Y. M. C. A. The affair was well worth the price of admission, and waa perhaps one of the best amateur performances of its nature ever presented in this city. The skit was especially good as it was unlike anything ever put on by amateurs here, the uniqueness of the affair addlug much to the pleasure evidenced by all those who attended. Its in terest was entirely local in character and considerable amusement was oc casloned by the "cracks" taken at a number of well known local persons Only a few escaped the "stings" of the court. The story of the affair has been told several times so It will bo sufficient to say that it concerned a breach of promise case brought by a widow, impersonated in a far from amateurist manner by Miss Abbie Schaefer, against a bachelor, the part being taken by Mr. Fred Lemon, a prominent business man of this city, Tho part of the judge was taken by Attorney W. A. Bond and he did his part unusually well, adding much to the success of the "Trial." Mrs. Miriam McDIvltt. Miss Dorothy Vaugban, Mr. Wilfred Jcssup and Mr. W. R. Poundstone were the witnesses and did their parts In a clever manner, the cross examinations of these witnesses by Mr. Reller occasioning much amusement. Mr. Walter Eggemeyer, one of the best amateurs of the city acted In the capacity of clerk of the court. Mr. Gustave lloclscher. a young attorney of this city as "Court Crier" made a decided hit with tho audience when he called the Jury under the names of well known public characters. As each one entered they were greeted with a hearty applause. Dr. A. L. Rramkanip when he gave "Expert Testimony" caused much laughter from the audience by the way in which he answered questions put to him by Mr. W. W. Reller. In sneaking of the. work of Mr. Reller one might say that his oratorical ability and appreciation of theatric, effect was a crowning feature of his impersonation. He made quite a hit with Kappa Alpha Phi Frat members In the rear of the theater when he asked Mr. Haas, one of the jurymen. If he was not president of the "Frat." The members of the auxiliary are to be congratulated upon the success of the affair. No doubt a large sum was realized. E. R. T.

A MILLION DOLLAR WILLJCONTEST ON Nephew of Wealthy Boston Molasses Broker Starts Fight for Fortune. (American Xews Service) Boston, Mass., Jan. 12. A notable legal contest is in prospect over the will of Benjamin W. Parker, a millionaire molasses broker of, this city, which was offered for probate in the Suqolk county court today. Dr. Frederick P. Gay of the university of California, a nephew of Mr. Parker, will seek to have the will set aside. Mr. Parker died recently and left a fortune of over $1,000,000. He left bequests of $500 each to eight persons of whom Dr. Gay is one. The income of the entire jiroperty i3 to go to the testator's brother, Clark Parker of Pasadena, Cal.. with provisions for the holding of the property by his family after his death. Despite his vast wealth and the fact that he had spent his entire life in Boston, Mr. Parker was comparatively unknown here. For a millionaire his manner of living and his tastes were in marked contrast with the notions generally associated with present day affluence. He lived apart from his fellows, in the sense of rarely mingling with them in the ordinary social ways of life. His habits were of the simplest and most economical. He owned neither horse nor automobile. He was not even known by his nearest neighbors. He virtually lived as a recluse to all intents and purposes, except in the making of money. He tucked himself away in his shabby little office and there he cut coupons and looked after his investments, continuing to do so after his molasse's business had dwindled away as a result of changes wrought by commercial combinations and the introduction of tank steamers. Dr. Gay, who next to Clark Parker Is the nearest living relative of the testator, will contest the will on the ground, it is understood, that undue influence was exercised upon his uncle and that he was of unsound mind. Dr. Gay. who has come to Boston to look after his interests, is a young man of ibout 33. Clark Parker, the chief beneficiary who is also in Boston in anticipation of a contest of the will, is 69 years old. IS FOUNDERS' DAY AT A UNIVERSITY (American Xews Service) Columbia. S. C, Jan. 12. Founders Day was brilliantly observed at the University of South Carolina today. The exercises began this afternoon with the formal opening of the new science building and an address by Dr. Seaman A.

DO MADNESSES 111

ORDER TO SLEEP Complete Relaxation Follow ing Ten Minutes Hard Play Stops Insomnia. London, Jan. 12. Dance a hornpipe, whistle, sing and do anything "mad" you can think of ten minutes before going to bed if you would sleep soundly and well. Be as merry as you can during that ten minutes. Make faces at yourself i in a glass, waltz your way up stairs, I ana conciuae wnn a lively twostep and, if you are an athlete, a somer sault on the badroom carpet. These were some of the ideas given by a well known doctor as a remedy for insomnia. Just about this time many people are Buffering from sleeplessness. In one case a man who ordinarily sleeps soundly the whole night through, has scarcely slept a wink for the last four or five days. "Sleeplessness is probably a common ailment at the present time owing to the frequent changes in the weather," said the doctor, whose yiews are given above. Temperament and Health. "Much, however, depends upon the individual temperament and one's state of health. Political excitement may account for insomnia among many people. "As for remedies for sleeplessness, I do not believe in the many serious cures which are offered by well meaning doctors and others to the public. Sufferers are advised to do Swedish drill or other exercises before going to bed. and then, when between the sheets to add up colossal sums, count innumerable imaginary sheep jumping visionary gates and work out a nograms. "My views are quite different. For ten minutes before going to bed a man should, in my opinion, give himself over to childish lighthearted amusements. If he feels depressed he should force himself to outward merriment. All men who work hard all day should devote this ten minutes to foolery. They should be as 'mad' as they can be without exhausting themselves too much." STATE DAIRYMEN HOLDING MEETING (Palladium Special) Lafayette, Ind., Jan. 12. Questions of vital importance to Indiana dairymen, are to be dealt with at the annual convention of the Indiana State Dairy association, which began its sessions at Purdue University in connection with the farmers' short course in agriculture today. The breeding, feeding and care of dairy cows, the different systems of making butter, sanitation problems and tuberculin tests, the enforcement of the oleomargarine law and the making of butter quotations, all will be considered during the two days' sessions. ABANDONMENT WAS THE CHARGE MADE Abandonment was alleged in a divorce suit granted in the circuit court this morning my Judge Fox. The case was that of Ralph Otis Folger against Belle Folger. the latter now residing at Indianapolis. The couple were married in October 1904 and separated on September 27, 1908.

ADVERTISING FAKES Are Perpetrated on the P. R. R. Company. (Palladium Special) Pittsburg, Jan. 12. Advertising swindlers are using the Pennsylvania station in New York for swindles in many parts of the country. A number of these have been brought to the attention of the Pennsylvania railread and vigorous means are to be taken to put an end to them. One swindle which has been perpetrated most generally is that of a large advertis

ing poster, which it is claimed will be hung in the Pennsylvania station in New York and in addition in various places and waiting rooms at other stations along the lines of the company. This poster contains a large picture of the Pennsylvania station, surrounded by advertisements. A rather unique method is used by the solicitors for this scheme, in that they state that they do not want any money, only a 6igned contract,1 and that the auditor of the Pennsylvania railroad will make the collection When the contract is signed, and the town is worked, the solicitors leave, and later on the printing concerns draws a draft on the advertiser for the amount of the contract. One of the contracts is marked "Accepted, C E. Keen, 308 Monadnock Bldg.. Chica go, 111.," and the posters are printed by a Chicago firm. The Pennsylvania railroad officials said yesterday that the company knew absolutely nothing about any of these schemes and that the railroad had no connection whatever with any of them. It was further stated that it was a well established policy of the Pennsylvania railroad company not to have any advertising matter posted on its property.

An error made in the commitment papers by Judge Fox of the "Wayne circuit court, against Salvator de Giana, the Italian who was sentenced to the state reformatory on December 1, 1910, for assault and battery with, intent to commit manslaughter an Gaetano Ciane, a fellow Italian, may be instrumental in securing his release at the expiration of two years. The commitment papers reads that tho sentence for such an offeuse is from two to twenty-one years in the stale institution whereas the sentence in reality is from two to fourteen years. Judge Fox wrote to the prison authorities today notifying them of the error and recommending that Gianni be ro leased at the end of two years. Tho crime for which the Italian was sentenced occurred in the North End and was the result of a cutting scrape following a drunken melee. ASK EXAMINATION OF THE PLAINTIFF In the case of Louis A.
