Mayor Zimmerman waa oil his feet In an limiant, rfic-r t'tla statement, defending his pet measure and one of the thickest planks of bis platform in the laat mayorallty campaign. "Those tracks are going out of Olen Miller." he cried, bringing the gavel down on hlu bench with a crash. "If necessary I'll go Into an election on the subject. If you win I shall pay for the election. If I win tbo city of Richmond pay a. The vote would be to 1 In my favor. I waa elected on that platform laat year." One Ally For Mayer. "Only one counclfman, of those expressing any opinion upheld the Mayor In bis position. He waa Matthew I Von Pein. Councllmcn .

Hart el "started the ball rolling." when he declared that all the people are not in favor of removing car tracks from Glen Miller park. Mr Bartel's reasons for his opinion aro Yarled. "Now we are wanting a north and outh traetlon line here," began Mr. Battel "Wo want new atreet cars. better service and Improvements and extensions on the city lines. Interurban service means much financially to any town. Capital, capital." cried Bartel. "Is what will be required to get these things. What shall we do? Discourage capital coming here? Give 'cm a black eye every chance we get? Or shall wo encourage capital to buil.l lines into Richmond, giving It a square deal? Vou've got to glvo something to " ; ilngs! 8appcs'npwo lett'iose atro ' ar tracks stay la Glen Miller, on tl o condition that tho street car company will give us new cars, lino extensions and better service generally?" "Go Slew" Warning. "The board of works had belter go alow," continued Mr. Battel. "You remember how the people in the East End kicked the other time. There's no telling whar you'll atlr up. You might get In so hot a place you would not know what to do. Ton board members had better be careful and go low." Kauffman and King, representing tho East End. protested against the board trying to have the tracks moved from the park. They told the mayor , fhey would never vote for an ordinance to that effect. Engelbert and Von Pein told tho mayor they had been hoodwinked by an attorney representing persona favoring the Glen as a place for the tracks and that they were "fooled" Into vot.hi. Viontlurt AtA not state how he would vote on tho pending ordinance. At present the board of worka la working on the proposition, which was aubmlttcd by the Terre Haute. Indianapolla and Eastern Traction com pany, proposing to remove the tracks if concessions regarding the use of the atreeta were given by the city. Tho franchise submitted by tho company Is satisfactory In a general way to the board, but thcro are minor changes to bo made before the board aenda the matter to council In the form of an ordinance. Prom remarka dropped by the various members of the council after the session. It looks like the ordinance, which will provide for removing tho track! will be defeated.

HER FORMER HOBBY William Mills Attempts to Shake Hands with ExWife Is Rebuffed. Tuesday. Immediately after Mrs. Florence J. Mills, had secured a divorce from him, William Mills walk ed to where she was sitting in the circuit court room and extended his hand, which his former wife ignored with the glacial glare. Turning red with embarrassment. Mills, who had gone on the stand and denied every material allegation of his wife and insinuated that their troubles were due to her friendship .for other men, rested bis band on her. fur muff which was In her' lap and said, "Flo, you know I have always tried to make you a good husband."With every eye In the court room turned In their direction. Mrs. Mills hesitantly repulsed her divorced husband's overtures for peace by drawling out a sarcastic "Ye-es." and then began crying. Abashed by her cold turn down, Mills walked back and put on his coat, then held a short conversation with' Judge Fox. The court omewhat severely excoriated Mills when pronouncing the decree in favor of Mrs. Mills. -Court Gives Lecture. When the defense had rested its case. Judge Fox declared the trouble between the two principals was the result of the husband's jealousy. Jealousy, added the court, is. as a rule, the prime motive for marital troubles. The court declared that jealousy was the basis for perhaps nine out of ten of the divorce cases which come up ; In the Wayne circuit court.

Monday, after four hours of grill ing cross and direct examination, Mrs. Florence Mills, suing for divorce in answer to a question by attorney W. H. Kelley, representing William Mills, as to whether she had recited all the mean things she knew about her hus band, vehemently replied "No," and launched further into her story of alleged wrong doings by the defendant during their several years of married life. She told of pictures of women carried about by Mills in his pockets; the dire necessity to which she was sometimes put to in cold weather to keep from freezing; of some of the debts of the defendant, and how he would chalk the hat box and put buttons and tacks In her shoes in order that he might know whether she had been out while be was at work. MADE VK SIZZLE Councilman Scored by Property Owner. "Hello," said a gruff voice over the telephone. "This Hlney Engelbert?" "Check," said the city father. "Well, you blinkety-blank magozalura, what do you mean by ordering cement sidewalks . on South Fifth street, where they are not needed." "Then," said Mr. Engelbert. after relating the above to a reporter, came the worst arraignment I ever got. It was awful. Why, whoever it was, called me everything from a liar to a horse thief." "After that I went down to the South Sfde Improvement association," said Engelbert. "Here came Alpbons Weishaupt, all excited and red in the face. 'Somebody wan Just talking to mo over the phone about South Fifth street;' he believed I knew the rest." Both Wcishaupt and Engelbert are now trying to find out who their "friend" is and when they find out something is going to happen, they say.

A FAMOUS SINGER WILL iPPEAR HERE Alexander Heinemann, Royal Court Singer, to Appear in City Feb. 15. Decision was made at a meeting of prominent music followers of the city yesterday to bring Alexander Heinemann, the great German Lieder Rallad, Oratoria, and Royal Court singer, to Richmond for a recital, Wednesday evening. February 15, at the Coliseum. The opportunity to secure Mr. Heinemann was due to the fact that he is booked for a recital at Dayton, Ohio, February 14, and that the day following was an onen date. The Heinemann's appearance here

will constitute one of the most important musical events of the year. The men who are promoting the project regard it aa very fortunate that Richmond ia able to secure an artist of this class, and they believe appreciation of the fact will be shown by a large attendance. N?w Musical Club. The action in arranging for the Heinemann recital may be the first step in the organization of a club or association for the purpose of securing popular concerts and recitals of a high order in Richmond at moderate prices. It was pointed out at the meeting that a club of this nature is responsible for many of tho concerts at Indianapolis. If the Heinemann recital proves a success, which is most confidentially expected, other attractions will be secured, those making the arrangements organizing themselves Into a clnb for that purpose. Whatever profits result will be turned into the fund for the promotion of the event. A thorough canvass of the city will be made for the subscription of tickets to the recital. Authorities of Earl1 11 1 . 1 V. . I ' behind the project and assist in the work of disposing tickets. Very little is known of Heinemann here as this is his first American tour. In Europe he bears the distlnc- j tion of being one of the masters. Re- ! ports of his foreign tours are high in their praise of his merits. Mr. Heinemann is a German and it will probably be the first time a Richmond audience has had the opportunity of hearing music as interpreted by a strictly German artist. COMPLIEJTWITH LAW Local Stores Place Seats for Clerks. In compliance with a state law, stools have been placed behind all the counters in the George H. Knollenberg department store, where female help is employed, that the women clerks may be seated when not occupied with customers or in arranging the stock. H. C. Hasemeier, of the Boston store has placed a number of chairs behind the counters and these will be replaced with patented stools tomorrow. Lee B. Nusbaum states that stools have j been located behind the counters Jn his store for some time. The placing of the stools in the Knollenberg store and the Boston store is the outgrowth of a visit of a state inspector to the city last December. He gave instructions that the stools be placed about the stores, but granted the request that the matter be allowed to rest until after the holidays. The stools are attached permanently to the back wall or the counter and can be raised for use and lowered again so as not to be in the way. . The law was enacted some time ago and according to Richmond merchants has always been complied with here in spirit in that the female employes were allowed, to use the stools in front of the counter or take chairs behind the counter for their use when unoccupred. A Heartless Joker. In "The Beaux and the Dandies" Clare Jerrold recalls a 6tory of the urartless Sheridan, who was at Bath with Beau Nash. Meeting after a long absence one Major, Brereton, who was noted for his high play at gambling, Sheridan asked: "How are you, major? How hare you been going on of late?" "I have had a great misfortune since last we met." was Brereton's reply. 'I have lost Mrs. Brereton." "Aye," answered Sheridan. "How did you lose her. at hazard or at ouinze?" 20 REDUCTION ON ALL PYROGRAPHY GOODS Old Reliable Paint Co. AVe Retail Good3 at Wholesale Prices. Phone 2230. 10-12 S. 7th. H. C Shaw. Mgr.
