SORDID POLITICS THEME OF A TALE TOLDJHOPKIIIS Ex-senator from Illinois Tells Probe Committee What He Knows About the Election of Lorimer.

(Continued from rage One.) "What did you tell Senator LandU?H "I aald I didn't want Democratic votes; that I was a candidate for the enate, and not for the penitentiary," replied Hopkins. "What Impression did you get from Landls?" "That It was to be a money consideration." Continuing Hopkins raid Lorimer was out to beat him (Hopkins) for the senate and would use any Instrumentality to accomplish It, even to taking the nomination himself, but Hopkins said he thought nt that time that Lorimer was the Inst man who could be elected. Attorney Marble asked Hopkins what he knew about a tory published to the effect that some of his (Hopkins') friends had offered $2,000 each for seventeen Democratic Totes In the legislature. Hopkins said there was absolutely no truth In that whatever. Hopkins Insisted that he was not after Democratic votes. What he panted to do was to hold the Republican vote, he said. Hopkins was asked If there was not an attorney for a Northwestern Railroad named Harris, and another man named Blair who bad sought to get Democratic votes for blm. He had never heard of any such thing. He got none of the Democratic votes of the legislatu?. "Do you recall that a man named Cermak was mentioned In connection with an attempt to purchase Democratic votes for you?" asked Marble. "I do not," shouted Hopkins Indignantly. "And I resent any such imputation on your part." FUTURE IS BRIGHT Girl Gave Up $90 Place to Wed $80 Clerk. Chicago, June 23 "I know I am the happiest person In the world, and I shall be happier in our four-room flat, attending to the household duties, than I ever have been pounding a typewriter all day. William is so ambitious, and I know we can get along nicely, even if he gets only $80 a month. He soon will be promoted, and two can live as cheaply as one if things are carefully managed." Miss Gertrude Schomburg, who gave tip a $90 a month position as stenographer in the pure food bureau of the city health department, to become Mrs. William 8. Hawthorne, gave these Tlews of married life shortly after her wedding. She blushed as she turned to her husband for a confirmation of her statements. Miss Schomburg and William S. Hawthorne, a clerk in the same. office were married at the parish house of the church of the Visitation, Fiftyfifth and Peoria streets, in the afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. Hawthorne left after the wedding for a honeymoon In the west and will return next month to their future home, at 6S46 South Sangamon street. "I met my husband two years ago, when we worked In the same office," aid the bride. "No, it wasn't love at first tight, but we became acquainted In the office, and later we planned to get married." ARGUMENTS ARE TO RESUME SATURDAY Arguments on the demurrer of the Terre Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern Traction company to the mandamus action of the county commissioners to compel the company to obey Its orders In respect to Its track location on the National road, from the city limits to the Wayne-Center township line, will be resumed on Saturday before Judge Fox of the Wayne circuit court. On Thursday the court heard Ferdinand Winters of Indianapolis as representing the company and Henry U. Johnson as the representative of the county. On Saturday the company's case will be presented again by Judge Daniel Comstock and closed by Mr. Winters after Mr. T. J. Study has gone further into the question for the coun- . ty. It is unlikely that the decision of the court will be made until a week or two after hearing the argument as both sides wiU submit a large number of authorities for examination.

PLAN AMUSEMENT PROGRAM FOR TAFT

Steam Engines Will Collide -Will Be a Hair Raising Event. Indianapolis, June 23. The survey for the "short line" railroad at the state fair ground, which is to be the scene of the head- oncollision July 4. has been made, and the work of building the track will be carried on rapidly. There are no gigantic engineering problems Involved in the building of the line, but it was deemed best to have It surveyed and laid out In scientific shape. Fortunately there are no streams to bridge and no tunnels are necessary for the unnamed railroad. It is to be in the infield of the race track. The collision will take place opposite the grand stand, so a good view may be had of the crash at a distance sufficient to remove all possibility of danger to spectators. The two locomotives that are to end their careers in this sensational manner are now at' the fair ground. They have been overhauled to make them fit for the last act. and are being freshly painted, a kind of war paint. A watchman has been employed to guard them against the enterprise of anybody who might wish to remove any of their parts as souvenirs, or to steam up for a premature collision. As locomotives are not constructed with a view to operation in dirt or gravel roads, no matter in what good conditions the roads may be, it was necessary to build a spur from the tracks on the west side to the fair ground, over which the doomed locomotives made their way into the grounds through the west gate. As the Associated Brotherhoods of Railroad Men in Train Service, which is to give the entertainment at the fair ground, is composed of railroad men, there is no dearth of competent Buperivision of the construction of this spur. The actual work of construction was done by ordinary section hands, but the work of direction was actively and efficiently carried on by many members of the associated brotherhoods. Among those who were prominent as superintendents of construction and operation of this spr were H. L. Fidler, president of the associated brotherhoods, and T. L. Hadden, manager. Hill at the Throttle. C. M. Hill, a veteran locomotive engineer, had the honor of driving the two locomotives into the grounds under their ow nsteam. Mr. Hill is commonly known among the railroaders as Senator Hill. Much care was taken in getting the two engines into the grounds, as there was a bad curve in the spur and there was a determination not to pull off any wrecks until the afternoon of the Fourth. The weight of the locomotives on temporary tracking caused anxious moments, but they steamed into the grounds without mishap. Arrangements have been made for the decoration of the grand stand the afternoon of the Fourth in honor of President Taft, and for a comprehensive scheme of decoration in the grounds. The state board of agriculture will assist in the matter of decorations. It is the present plan to take President Taft through the fair ground coliseum, at the suggestion of officers of the board of agriculture, on his arrival at the grounds, at about 2:10 o'clock. Special Stand for Taft. It is the intention to build, in front of the grand stand, a special stand for the President and his party. Arrangements also have been made for the erection of big bleachers west of the grand stand. There will be a court at the grounds in order that justice may be administered on the spot. Justice of the peace Howe, of Broad Ripple, will preside over the court. Suitable arrangements also have been made for a yarge force of uniformed special policemen and some mounted men, with Frank Wilson, formerly of the Indian apolis police force in charge. In addition there will be police from the Indianapolis department. Besides the head-on collision there will be motorcycle races, horse races, a balloon ascension and parachute leap, dancing and various other forms of entertainment. There will be a general picnic July 3, with practically the same program as for the Fourth, with the exception of the head-on collision. MILDRED BRIDGES A WITNESS AGAIN (National News Association) Chicago, June 23. Mildred Bridges the 17-year-old girl who is alleged to have been abducted and mistreated by Evelyn Arthur See, head of the stand in See's trial today to conclude her testimony. The girl has proved to be so clever that the state, which subpoenaed her against See, has failed utterly to make her admit her relations with See, despite the fact that she admits kissing him and writing love letters to him. Mildred and Mona Rees lived at See's "love jungle" on Racine avenue and neighbors testified to rather negligee scenes and actions in the flat. Mona Rees will take the stand today. IS ENJOINED FROM SELLING PROPERTY Christie Williams, a blacksmith, east of the city, and also owner of considerable livestock, has been enjoined by the circuit court from disposing of any of his property until such a time as the court can further look into the case. The smith's wife, Mrs. Alpha Williams, who is seeking a divorce, is responsible for the order aa It was upon her petition that the court acted.

ROYAL PROGRESS THROUGH LOtlOOtl Millions of People Greet Royal Couple Today Canadians Demonstrative.

(National News Association) London, June 23. Upwards of eight million men, women and children are estimated to have witnessed the Royal Progress through London today. To the great majority of Londoners and visitors as well, the procession was of greater interest than the coronation itse'.f, for comparatively a very few had ; an opportunity to view yesterday's j pageantry. It was shortly after 11 o'clock this morning when the booming of cannon from the artillery detachment stationed in St. James Park, immediately at the rear of Buckingham Palace, announced to the hundreds of thousands who had taken their places along the route that the King and Queen had entered their carriage and that the royal procession was prepared to move. Two hundred Life Guards in their Majesties rode, and which was a veritable dream in artistic gold and blue enameling, was drawn by eight white horses, with outriders in uniforms of scarlet and gold. Two hundred Lif Guards in their magnificent uniforms and mounted upon black chargers cleared the way for the procession. Immediately before the carriage galloped a squad of Indian Cavalry. Immediately behind marched the Colonial detachments. All branches of the two services were represented in the line. The route of the procession was from Buckingham Palace up Constitu tion Hill, and thence by way of Piccadilly, St. James's street, Pall Mall, Trafalgar Square, The Strand, Fleet street, Ludgate Hill, St. Paul's Churchyard, Queen Victoria street and King William street, to London Bridge, where the procession passed over into Southwark. Fifty thousand troops lined the route and at every important street intersection there was stationed a military band, which played the national anthem as the royal carriage passed. Back of the troops were the spectators, a veritable sea of faces, men, women and children, enthusiastic almost to wildness. Never before, probably, had a British sovereign received a more cordial greeting at the hands of his or her subjects. The roar started at the moment that the King and Queen descended the steps of the palace to their carriage, and it lasted until their return. It was a popular reception in every sense of the word. Myriads of dainty white handkerchiefs fluttered in the air on either side of the fashionable avenues through which the procession passed in its early stages and seemed to keep time with the hoarse cheering of the masculine element, while children tossed out nosegays and baskets full of loose flowers, only to be trampled under the feet of the horses or crushed under the w-heels of the carriages. When the carriage turned into Piccadilly a large number of members of the Stock Exchange who occupied a special stand sang Rule Brittania with telling effect. A little farther on was a large stand occupied exclusively by Americans. Other stands and windows were filled .with hundreds of Canadians, who cheered enthusiastically and waved their flags as their Majesties came into view. The Queen seemed especially pleased with the loyal demonstration by the representatives of the great overseas dominion and acknowledged the greeting by a graceful inclination of her head. OVER ONE MILLION IN SUNDAY SCHOOLS San Francisco, June 23. One milliou, four hundred and .thirty-one thousand pupils have been added to the Sunday schoqls of the United States in the last three years, according to statistics presented to the International Sunday School convention which i3 in session here.

TR00BLEJ STORE For Lawyers When They Play the Scribes.

Wbat little chance the attorneys of the Wayne county bar had of making a creditable showing with th newspaper men in the ball gam ,2 to be played at Athletic park Saturday afternoon, they forfeited yesterday when they failed to attend the "schocl in first principles' which the newspaper men had agreed they would hold at the park in connection for the attorneys' benefit. By war of a little encouragement to i the attorneys it may be said that In their absence the fighting scribes with several bank clerks in their line-up toyed with a pick-up team of independent players and emerged from a fiveinning fray with a score of S to 5 in their favor. Out of a magnanimous spirit the newspaper men have arranged that the humiliation of the lawyers shall be open to the public, free of charge. Chief of Police Alex Gormon announced today that he would be present to prevent too awful a slaughter and assist the umpires in settling all disputes. Cheer Leader Thomas Jefferson Study for the lawyers has been hard at work during the last twenty-four hours gargling salt water and arranging a set of rules for the lawyers famous rooters, including Henry U. Johnson, Abel Lomax Study, Judge Abbott and Judge Fox. In order to furnish the Richmond fans with a complete account of the game, the Palladium has assigned its society editor to report the game. She says she read about one once and thinks herself well qualified. CUTS HUSBAND; ASHES FOR PLANTS Mount Holly, N. J., June 23. An un- j usual bequest, showing that she was a supporter of woman suffrage, although apparently inactive, and believing that some day the cause will win, and then a strange direction regarding the disposition of her remains are two interesting Items of the will of Rebecca H. Ballinger, who died recently at her home at Moorestown. The document was admitted to probate at the surrogate's office here and the Burlington County Safe Deposit and Trust company of Moorestown is the executor. The first paragraph of the will directs the executor to have the body cremated and the ashes strewn upon the plants and flowers around the woman's late residence on Central avenue, Moorestown. The will also creates a $5,000 trust fund, the income from which is to be paid to the National Woman Suffrage association "until woman suffrage shall be fairly and firmly established." If the association is abandoned after voting by women is no longer in doubt the principal is to be equally divided between a niece and nephew. Other bequests in the will dispose of an estate valued at about $12,000, and members of the family are beneficiaries. Mrs. Ballinger cut off her husband, Levi, without a cent. She was just as eccentric as her strange will would indicate, and her many peculiarities caused her hsuband to leave her on three different occasions.

During the progress of a thunder storm at a campmeeting service of the Union Penta costal church, held at Pleasantville, this county, Mrs. Mary R. Wentzel of this city says she was miraculously healed from paralysis. Her entire left side was affected and she walked w ltb crutches. While at the altar she began to swing her left arm, which she had been unable to use for three years, and like a flash she says her left leg was healed. She quickly arose and, throwing her crutch away, waiked about the tented tabernacle, shaking bands with everybody and thanking God for His won derful healing powers. 10,000 YEAR OLD . CITY IN ARIZONA Phoenix, Ariz., June 23. Still another "oldest city in the world" has been discovered. When T. Hewitt Myring found vases in Peru in ruins which were said to be 7,000 years old, it was imagined that he remains of early civilization har been pushed "as far into antiquity as they would ever go. But A. Lafave, a mining engineer, has found the relics of a twon in an Arizona tableland near Phoenix which, hs insists are at least 10,000 years old. The buildings are on a level stretch, of country where neither slit nor wash was possible, and let the ruins were covered with ten feet of prairie dust which the discoverer claims requirea ages to accumulate. MARKER ON EGG WAS ITS TRACER Columbus, Ind., June 23. The town , of Hope, Bartholomew county, has come forward with an egg story less likely to be believed than any sent out under a local date line in a long time. Frank Neligu, a carriage maker, says a White Wyandotte hen laid an egg that had delicate tracery on each side. The tracing in white on one side spelled "Hope," while on the other side there was the abbreviation "Ind." The, egg has been placed in a window of the Neligh establishment. The next stunt expected of this hen is to lay an egg with a postal card written on one side and a postscript on the other.
