A Former Richmond Girl Now Leader In The London Society

O K )&&45 y -

Prom a little, modest home on South Thirteenth street, Richmond, Ind.. U. S. A., to be mistress of a great London Mansion, leased from a member of the English, peerage. Lord Arthur Butler, is going some, but that Is the step beautiful Alice Carr, formerly of this city, has taken. Twenty years ago Alice Carr, whols now the wife of General Cecil Ringham, a distinguished English soldier, was the belle of this little Indiana city, although former Richmond friends of Mrs.. Bingham say she has now forgotten that she ever lived here. They say, however, that she has a slight recollection of being born in Louisville, Ky. Mrs. Carr, widow of a distinguished but poor officer of the Union army, who fought gallantly in the Civil war, came to Richmond on the death of General Carr, on. the advice of a friend of her husband, because she and her family could live cheaper than In Louisville. Mrs. Carr had great ambitions for her two beautiful daughters, Alice and Grace they were not for the ardent Richmond swains who in legions sued for their hearts and hands. When the girls were still in their 'teens Mrs. Carr took them for a season in Florida and Alice speedily won a millionaire husband. Samuel S. Chauncey of New York. He died a short time later, then Miss Grace married an English nobleman. Lord of Newborough, and the match, unlike most international romances, has proved to be a most happy one. A Ixndon dispatch says Mrs. Ringham is making elaborate preparations to uphold the reputation of Americans as entertainers at the Butler mansion. She will be one of the principal hostesses during the coronation celebration, next June. Mrs. Ringham already has earned the distinction of being one of the most lavish entertainers in London and her coronation functions are looked forward to keenly by the Americans in the British metropolis.

J. L. ZIMMERMAN WILLJEJPEAKER Prominent Springfield Man to Respond to Toast at Com. Club Banquet. One of the speakers at the Commer cial club banquet next Tuesday even ing will be the lion. John L. Zimmerman of Springfield, O. Mr. Zimmerman will be remembered as the Democratic ! nominee for governor of Ohio some years ago, and is favorably regarded by a large wing of his party for the next nomination. He is quite a wealthy business man and promiuent. attorney. He is a type of man who does not permit politics or business to control his convictions on matters of civic righteousness and religion. He has high ideals on the subject of good citizenship. He had the courage to actively oppose his party before the legislative committees on recent temperance legislation of his sjate. He has been very active in his own rity lor the things that make for good government, for which Springfield has rather a wide and unfavorable reputation. Mr. Zimmerman has been for many years a trustee of Wittenberg college, giving a great deal of time and money for its advancement, and is specially charged with its financial policy. He Is a prominent church man being actively connected with Springfield's largest and most influential church, and teaches a business men's Bible class numbering 500 men. He is the lay delegate from the Wittenberg synod to the general synod of the Lutheran church, which convenes in Washington next June. Mr. Zimmerman, Judge Grosscup of Chicago and a few others have wielded great power in this immense organization, especially In shaping Its policy toward educational and benevolent Institutions. His subject at the banquet will be "Independent Thinking." which will undoubtedly prove interesting, coining fropn a BJ.au. of bis type.

BEVER1DGE IS TO VISIHRESIDENT But Is Not After German Ambassadorship Deal on for Star League.

Palladium Special) Washington, April 25. Ex-Senator Beveridge is expected at the White House late this afternoon or tomorrow. Reports that he is to be offered the post of ambassador to Germany are not confirmed at the White House. On the contrary, it is stated in an authoritative way, his name is not under consideration. The old Republican organization would undoubtedly be glad to have the former senator sent abroad. They fear the Republicans of the state will take the first opportunity to make Beveridge governor or return him to the senate. Beveridge's friends here do not believe he would accept the German post. They believe his coming is to insist that promises made to him about federal patronage in Indiana be kept. Hemenway and Watson, it is learned from friends of the old Kairbanks-Hemcnway-Kealing organization here, have been in New York " recently In connection with the renewal of plans for the acquisition of the Star league of newspaper properties. Several months ago the prospect for acquiring these newspapers seemed reasonably certain to political influi ences that are work seeking to reorganize the Republican party in Indi ana. Fairbanks was expected to extend substantial financial aid in the enterprise. JUDGE TAKES CASE UNDER ADVISEMENT Judge H. C. Fox of the circuit court took under advisement the suit on account, instituted by Jacob Schuester of Louisville, Ky, against Homer V. McLeland, a local coraission merchant, demand $125. The trial was held on Monday,

SUFFRAGETTE TO

START CAMPAIGN AT THE COLLEGE Miss Martha Gruening, Mili tant Leader in the Movement, Will Tell Earlham "Co-eds" of Work. QUAKER COLLEGE IS ' HARD FORT TO TAKE Has Never Sympathized with Movement, Hence Suffragettes Are to Concentrate Attack on It. Earlham college, above all U.e other coeducational institutions of the middle west is known as an anti-suffragette stronghold. This has usually proved sufficient reason tor agitators of the suffragette movement to avoid the loca! college, but not so this time. The National College Equal Suffrage league has decided to invade the mid dle west and Earlham will receive first attention. Miss Martha Gruening, secretary of the league, has been dele gated to do missionary work at Earlham, and will arrive at the local college on Thursday. She will remain at the college over the week end, as the guest of Miss Marcia Furnas, daughter of Superintendent and Mrs. Furnas. Miss Gruening and Miss Furnas were friends as Uryn Mawr college, Philadelphia. The National College Equal Suffrage league which Miss Gruening represents, is headed by Miss M. Carey Thomas, president of Bryn Mawr college. Among the vicepresidents are Miss Anna Howard Saw, president of the National American Womans' Suffrage association. Miss Sophonisba Breckenridge, assistant dean of women. Chicago University: Miss Mary E. Wooley, president of Mount Holyoke college; and many other representative college women of the country. Was Once Arrested. Miss Gruening has traveled widely, J though, she is but a recent graduate or Smith college, where she obtained her A. B. degree in 1909. During 1909 and 1910 she did graduate work at Bryn Mawr college, and it was during that time that Miss Furnas met her. She has the reputation of being a highly educated woman and aii inter esting speaker. Miss Gruening is the woman who was arrested during the Philadelphia 6hirt-waist strike last year for incit ing a not. Ine incident created a great furor in the east and was the subject of much popular discussion in the newspapers. She was later released, as sufficient evidence could not be found to substantiate the charges. Whether the Earlham girls will assume the attitude of a recent graduate of Indiana university, when she declared "what a woman wants is not a vote but a voter," or whether Miss Greening's visit will stir up a strong suffragette movement in the local college, is uncertain. The men of the college are watching proceedings witn an interest equal to that of the sedate and venerable House of Lords. They are stubbornly exhibiting an attitude of the "got to show me" variety. . Miss Gruening will deliver a lecture before the student body and friends of the college on Friday morning at 9:50 and it is said that she will then showthat the ideals of the National College Equal Suffrage league are a refutation of the charges generally made against the suffrage movement. A FIEIIDISH CRIME Vermont Youth Alleged Slayer of Mother and Sister. (American News Service) Maidstone, Vt., April 25. A special grand jury convened here today to take up the case of Arthur Bean, he eighteen-year-old youth who has been confined in jail for some time on the suspicion of having murdered his mother and sister. The tragedy occurred at the Bean home on March 9, last. On the day of the murder, young Bean, with a rifle slung over his shoulder, entered the home of a neighbor and calmly told the persons there that his mother, Mrs. George Bean, and his sister. Miss Nina Bean had been shot and killed. Neighbors rushed to the Bean home and found the body of Miss Nina in a pool of blood on the floor of the front hall, while that of Mrs. Bean was in a bedroom on the upper floor of the house. There were bullet wounds in both bodies. Young j Bean was taken into custody a day orj two later, but all efforts to induce him to make a confession failed.

GIRL-WIFE POSED

S ATTIRE TO HELP HUSBAND Former Richmond Young Woman, Mrs. J. A. Pauley, 16, Arrested for Loitering in Indianapolis. BOTH HAD TO WORK TO EARN A LIVING Was the Story ; Frail Little Woman Told Police She and Pauley Eloped from Here Last Fall. With closely cropped hair and garbed in men's clothes for the avowed purpose of being able to secure work by the side of her husband in order to contribute to their support, Mrs. James A. Pauley, aged 16 years, for merly Miss Stella Rogers of this city. who eloped on October 8 last year and was married to the Liberty, Ind., young man at Covington, Ky., was arrested at Indianapolis last evening on a charge of loitering and is held with her husband pending an investigation. The young wife is the daughter of James W. Rogers'. 113 South Second street, a fireman at the Municipal Light plant. He was shocked to learn of her plight last evening, but was non-committal regarding what be intended to do in the matter. It is understood it was against his will that his daughter married Pauley, a youth of 23 years, and it is understood he has never become reconciled to their marriage. Were Forced to Work. Pauley, it is alleged by the sister of the girl, has never contributed to the support of his wife to any extent since they were married. For awhile they lived at the home of Pauley's parents at Liberty, but a short time ago they had to leave, and. it is said, sheer ne cessity for a livelihood drove them to Indianapolis in search of work. Extreme devotion seems to have been manifested on the part of the young wife. When it was decided that Pauley should go to Indianapolis for work, the giri refused to be left at home, even for a week, and volunteer ed to make the trip and obtain work with her husband, whatever kind they could find to do. It was their inten tion, they told the police to secure em ployment at common labor and toil side by side. To do this necessitated the adoption of male attire by the girl The young wife is slender and frail She was dressed in a blue suit of rough cloth, a blue shirt, and a widebrimmed sombero hat. Her hair was cut short and she carried the sheared urauis wrapped in a newspaper in an inside pocket. Her frail form and feminine feat ures made her a marked figure, say the Indianapolis police, when she walked through the Traction Terminal station, but she didn't seem to mind and clung tenaciously to the arm of her husband. Story Pauley Tells. The story Pauley told the Indian apolis police follows in part: "We had a hard time to make ends meet. We lived for awhile with my father, but the house was not large so we moved. We moved again, but there was nothing for me to do in the little town and I had heard there was plenty of work in this city. 1 decided to come here alone, leaving Stella until I could find a place for both of ns. She wanted to begin housekeeping." Refuses to Be Left. "But one great obstacle came into the road. How could I leave the girl? She refused absolutely to be left alone at Liberty and we had nothing on which to live while here. We figured and the plan was suggested that she come to the city with me attired as you see ber now. I demurred at first, but she was insistent. Finally we decided that was the best plan." "I cut off her hair and procured a suit of clothing for her to wear. She donned it and we started for the city. Saturday night we left Liberty, walking a part of the way to save money. She was great to save. We took a train at Rushville and here we are. I have a sister here and she promised to meet us at the Terminal station but before she arrived the officer arrested us."

TWO AMAZONS WERE Ifl MAMS COURT His Honor Thought He Had Overlooked Fining One, Reopened the Case ' - Some time ago two women had a fierce fist fight at the Akron hotel. The principals were Fredia Hilliard, who was fined $5 and costs, and Maggie White, who the Hilliard woman assaulted. Maggie claimed that the Hilliard woman pulled her clothes down in the mud. When the case was tried in police court they looked st each other with dark and baleful glares. This morning the case was reopened as the Mayor had received information that the White woman was parti y to blame and he wanted to fine her if the facts substantiated his information. The women came into court arm-in arm, the best of friends. Peace had arch enemies. But when they got on the stand to tell of the fight by degrees the old enemity was aroused again. David Brady told the best tale of the fight but not on the stand. "To tell the truth, gentlemen," he said, "it was the prettiest battle I ever had the good fortune to witness. Speaking of a cat fight! Mrs. Hilliard is a big woman, and she had thQ weight on Mrs. White, but the little woman put up a worthy, argument with her fists and her feet. Hair flew. Cuss and other spicy words filled the air. . Both had the other by the hair. They were head to head like a couple of moose fighting. Then they clinched. Again they were at it. Finger nails dug into flesh. Bites were exchanged. Another clinch. The fight ended from pure exhaustion. It lasted probably ten minutes." The facts brought out were practically the same as at the first trial, and the Mayor made no further fine. After the hearing the women soon for? got about the fight and left the police station good friends once more.

Battle of Scant land's Barn

Recently an army of rats invaded and seized the township of Greene in the county of Wayne, state of Indiana. They began to pillage and forage from every house and barn, and citizens of the township arose and loudly demanded a champion a Pied Piper of Hamlin to drive the rodents across the borders. The role of Pied Piper appealed to Norman Freeman, who works for farmer Ol Scantland, and he bared his muscular right arm, seized a Rooseveltian 'club, walked into the Scantland barn land the revolt against the greedy rodents was on. The fight has been tak en up by all the Greene township people, so Nathan Edwards announces, and the cruel war, in which quarter is neither asked nor given, will not end until the last of the rat invaders has been exterminated- Judging from the number of casualties in the ranks of the rodents as a result of the Battle of Ecantlacd's Barn, every rat will have
