(National Nw Association) nrianivflTnM Aar t A Tt-k1-lent Tsft, accompanied by his stenographer aad Major Butt, his aide, arrlred here tola morning from Beverly and vent at once to .the White House. The president brought with him his veto message on the statehood bill, which was based on Mr. Taft'c opposition to the recall ot the judiciary in the Arizona constitution. It mar go to congress today, or Tuesday, after the president . has consulted his advisors, and perhaps slightly modifying the document . An hour after hia arrival tbe president called a special meeting of the cabinet to consider the statehood veto. This was done because the president will leave tomorrow for Ocean Grove, N. J., where he will - address the Methodists'' camp meeting. The regular cabinet meeting tomorrow could therefore not be held. DEMAND JORE CARE Be Taken by Corporations as to Street Repairs. r Corporations which use the city streets and have been neglectful In replacing them In tbe same condition as they found them will be hauled before the board of works and officially tnformed that they must be more careful In the future. Representatives of the Light, Heat and Power company were before the board on Monday, and Superintendent Gordon of the street railway company will be notified to attend Thursday's meeting for this same purpose. - At the board of works meeting on Monday only routine business was considered, including resolution for the construction of cement roadway in first alley south of Main from South Sixth to first alley east; approved assessment roll of improvement to first alley north of North A street from 8eventh to Eighth; approved assessment roll for construction of cement sidewalks on South Fourth from Main to E; and received petition for extension of water main from Grant to 8chocl streets on Boyer street, and likewise location of fire hydrant on Boyer. The cabinet meeting was productive ot reports ot "nothing doing." f" HE GREETED THE CZAR. experience of Nicholas II. With e Pa rislan Strsot Arab.

VUHHli PR0BLEMII0W UP Board Has Not Decided Yet Whether It Will Recom- , mend Their Purchase. Recommendations of the board of county commissioners for appropriations for 1912, are held in abeyance until the board determines whether or not to ask for several thousand dollars for the purchase of voting machines for the county. All other estimates are now on Ale with tbe county audit or. The board has had such short notice in regard to the voting machine problem that it will be a week or two before the commissioners can investigate and ascertain, the needs of the county in this regard. So far. the Estimates total close to $150,000. The purchase of voting ma chines would mean an expenditure in he neighborhood of $20,000. In case voting machines are purchased, it is probable the county tax rate will be Increased a few cents, but otherwise, this will not be deemed necessary. Since an earlier report of the prepar ations to finance county business in 1912, the board ot commissioners has increased its' estimate of the cost of the registration of voters a thousand dollars, the recommendation now being $4,000. - The board's estimates of expense will be reviewed by the county council which meets in September. The council may either trim or increase any of these estimates, or in fact refuse them altogether, but inasmuch as the ordinary expenses of the county are rather well defined and can be approximated a year ahead within a few dol lars of what the actual expense will be. the council is expected to endorse whatever recommendations the com missioners make. DESTROYED TREES May Charge Eaton Contract or with Maliciousness. Caustic criticism of public officials and private citizens, engendered over the desecration of Eaton's most beautiful thoroughfare, now rends the public 4 conscience here and bids fair to resolve itself into a controversy that will have a distinct bearing upon the coming municipal election and be a talked-of subject for years to come. Thomas J. Stephens, sidewalk con tractor employed by Mrs. Mary E. Farr, who owns considerable land ly ing between Mound Hill Cemetery and the city, last Saturday felled a large number of the beautiful maples that tesellated the walk from the city to the burial ground. He acted under instructions from his employer, yet it is positively staled that Mr. Stephens will today be arrested on charges of malicious destruction of property, and sidewalk obstruction ' and will be brought, before the mayor. . The condition which now exercises the public mind is admittedly provok ed, according to numerous well-known citizens, by "penuriouaness with the public purse, unreasonably aggressive action on the part of the city council, personal retaliation and spite, and a woeful lack ot civic pride."

MEETING TONIGHT ON WATER WORKS A meeting will be held this even-, ing for further discussion of tbe proposal of the E. M. Campfield company.

It is important that city officials and other citizens who are Interested in this matter be present. PESTS, DESTROYING - RICHMOND TREES Indianapolis Resident Says Unless Attended They Will Soon Die. That the trees in Richmond are in such a serious condition that they need immediate attention, is the opinion expressed this morning by Mr. Elbert Moore, a member of the Indianapolis Park Board. Mr. Moore came to this city to visit with L. A. Handler, and he noticed at once the miserable condition the trees are in. He says that unless the city or the property owners do something this fall to drive away the numerous pests that are demolishing the most beautiful trees, it will be a matter of only a year or two before the city is entirely bare of trees. The situation here is exactly the same as that which confronted the Indianapolis authorities last year, and which drove them to appoint a special committee to look after the trees. The worst affliction from which the trees are suffering is the San Jose scale. Mr. Moore sayB that even though he has made no -special study of the trees here, he can not' help noticing how rapidly these pests are ' doing their work. This insect Is barely discernible to the naked eye.' It gets on the under side of the small limbs at first, and crawls inside. its shell. . It ingeniously contrives this covering so that it is just the color of smoke, and sometimes can be discovered only by an expert. The insect itself is very tiny and yellow. The first visible symptom of the insect's fatal work is that along about this time of year, certain trees, especially maples, begin to lose a few of their smaller branches through withering. As this occurrence is so common, no one ever gives any attention to the tact, and the tree owners do not notice the loss of the branches. The same thing takes place the second year a trifle worse in this instance. About the third year the own er of the tree sits up and takes notice, for generally at this time some of the principal limbs suddenly drop off. Un fortunately, according to the Indianap olis expert, the owner has waked up too late, for at this late stage nothing can be done for the trees, and it will be a matter of only ' a year or two more before the trees are dead. EXCESS. Too much noise deafens as; too much light bands us; too great a distance or too much of proximity equally prevents us from being able to see; too loaf and too short a discourse obscures our knowledge of a subject; too much of truth stuns us.

LECTURES ARE GIVEN At the Friends' Summer School Today. ' Three unusually interesting lectures marked this morning's meeting of the Friends Summer School on North A street. The Rev. Elbert Russell furnished the second number of his series on "The Social Teachings of Jesus." This morning he discussed the Christ's teachings about the family. Mr. Russell said that He elevated the social position of women and children to a great extent. He said Jesus also was strong in his disapproval of divorce. But Jesus never was in favor of second) marriages. Mr. R. Barcley Spicer gave the introduction to his "series of lectures dealing with the Book of Acts.? He stated that in all probability St. Luke wrote the book. ' He divided it into four principal subdivisions, which he will use during his addresses. These were (1), the church in Jerusalem, Chapters 1 to 8; (2), The beginnings of the world mission, Chapters 9 to 12; (3), the church established in Asia Minor and Europe, Capters 13 to 20; and (4), Paul in bonds. Chapters 21 to end of the book. George Walton finished the morning's program with a talk on the "Friendly Form of Worship," in which he emphasized how much more ordinary friendship can do in the world than can genius. This afternoon a protest meeting will be held to take action on the treatment of the Jews by the Russian government. f On Sunday devotional meetings were held in the morning and evening. At the end of the evening gathering, the people met informally in the meet ing house and sang hymns. They were accompanied by Miss Nellie Shaw on the piano, and by Misses Cornelia Shaw and Carolyn Hutton on the violin. CARIIIVAMT) OPEll At Beallview Tonight An Excellent One. Sunday was spent by employes of the Greater United Shows, a carnival company, here, under the auspices of the Entre Nous club,' in preparing for the opening of the carnival this evening. The company is said to be a most meritorious one, possessing several attractions different entirely from the ordinary run of carnival shows. Everything is in readiness for the grand opening. The carnival will be held jn Beallview park. Heels te Match Walk. In every theater audience there are critical persons who are prolific witb suggestions for making the play more realistic," said a stage manager. "Some of these hints are worth considering too. In one play that was staged;not long ago the biggest hit was made by a character actress who had to wear down-at-theheet shoes. On the third day of the New York run I received s letter from a shoemaker, who called my attention to the fact that the woman's gait and her shoes did not match. Her heels were run down on the outside, whereas the walk she assumed en the stage must inevitably cause her shoes to run over on the Inside. That was a point that had escaped the notice of everybody In the' company. , Upon iftHng into the matter we found plenty of evidence to uphold our critic, and we secured a pair of property shoes with heels won away on the inside."

When Bonaparte put the Duke d'Eng hein to death all Paris felt so much horror at the event that the throne ot the tyrant trembled under him. Sir John Sinclair wrote. A counter revolu non was expected and would most probably have taken place had not Bonaparte ordered a new ballet to be brought out with the utmost splendor st the opera. The subject 'he pitched upon was- "Ossian. or the Bards." it is still recollected In Paris as perhaps the grandest spectacle that had eTer been exhibited there. The consequence was that the. murder of the Duke dEnghein was totally forgotten and nothing but the new ballet was talked ofHitting Back.

BATTltiG RALLY BY

LOCALS COPS GAME Starrs Yesterday Defeat An cient Rivals, All Kentuckians, 5 to 1. After dropping game after game, and blanked until the eighth Sunday In a mill with the All Kentuckians at Athletic park,. the locals came to and scored five times, which was four more than the independent club had garnered in the way of tallies. The locals had a batting streak in this inning and were assisted some by their opponents. The All Kenutcklans are not as strong this year, judging from appearances, as they were In the olden days, when-the Entre Nous team met them in baseball combat. Crane, the visiting catcher, scored for the all Kentuckians in the fourth and as pitchers for both teams were working well it looked as though Richmond was to be on the loosing ned again. However, in the eighth the locals pulled together and lambasted the ball and took advantages of opportunities, scoring five runs. The locals had several new men in the lineup, Hufter, Rumpf, and Avery being replaced with Bowie, Fisse and Hollingsworth. Score and Summary; Richmond AB. R H. PO. A. E.
