CHAIIGES

BATTLESHIP FLEET Commanders of the North Atlantic War Dogs Are to Be Shifted. OLD POINT COMFORT, Va., Sept. U. with the relation incident to the practical completion of, target practice, officer are speculating as to the many changes to take place in division and individual hlp commanders. The commander-in-chief and his staff will, of course, reinaln when the final reorganization of the Atlantic fleet with 21 battleships is put into operation before January 1. Rear admiral Badger, commanding the second division, will undoubtedly remain in his present command. It is also possible that Rear Admiral Howard will remain after taking -over the third division and second BQttadron, tut he has put in practically all of his ea service as a division commander. Hear Admiral Staunton, commanding the fifth division will probably be succeeded shortly. For divisional commanders those most mentioned are Rear Admiral K. F. Nicholson, chief of the bureau of navigation; Rear Admiral Austin M. - Knight, president of the special board ' on naval ardinance at Washington, and Rear Admiral Bradley A. Flake, a member of the general board of the Joint army and navy board. Changes i In the command of battleships will be . be numerous. It is said that Capt. I.M. B. Wilson, now assistant to the chief of the bureau of navigation, will t get the Delaware, in the first division. . With, the exception of Capt. J. A. I Hoogewerk, of the Kansas, it in probable that every command of the second division will be changed. Capt.. Walter McLean of the Vermont, has already applied for transfer. Capt. I Albert O. Wlnterhalter of the Louisiana; Capt. A. F. Fechter, of the Rodgers of the New Hampshire, have South Carolina, and Capt. Thomas S. already put in their full of present sea duty. In the third division, Capt. Harry McL. P. Hughes, captain of the Philadelphia navy yard, is mentioned as apossible successor to Capt. Herbert O. Dunn, or the Idaho. Capt. ' William F. Fullam of the Mississippi, will shortly be rilieved to take charge of the jitw naval station at North Chicago. 111. Capt. Fullam, from his long experience as commandant of the Newport training station and at the naval acadrmy at Annapolis, was specially ch -uu for this billet. He is well knov ... n strict disciplinarian as wcU .iv a splendid Instructor. Thin is' no more strict disciplinarian la-t'-e United States navy than Rear Admiral Hugo Osterhaus, the commander-in-chief of the Atlantic fleet. When Officers begin to disregard in small ways "the sacredness of the quarterdeck" and men become lax In the observance of many of the ship as well as navy regulations, they find that their commander-in-chief is observant and damands strict adherence to them. This has been the case during the present autumn target practice. Many of the niceties observed In port are not required at sea when work is the order. This, however, does not mean that carelessness is permitted. Rear Admiral Osterhaus observed from his flagship, the Connecticut, the officers on board, as well as on other ships of the fleet, would some, times forget and stroll over to the . starboard side of the quarterdeck with a lighted clgaret or cigar. Others would sit down on the bits on the port side of the quarterdeck In their leisure moments. Both of these are almost considered sacrilege. He lost no time In sending a general circular to all commanding officers requesting that the sacredness of the quarterdeck be observed and that officers refrain, during the day, from sitting on the iquarierurca. iu wtmoi tv after the enlisted men. They were ordered to refrain from smoking In the boats, on top of turrets, on the bridges in boats hanging in davits, and were also instructed to be more cleanly in their personal appearance. Owing to the constant shifting of positions and anchorages on the southern drill grounds, navigating officers find that after long runs they are put to considerable effort finding the exact location of the various day and night anchorages. This has led to the usual discussion in the ward room mess and a definite suggestion has materialised as a result. It is that the aid of the government lighthouse service should be solicited by the navy department. It is sug- ' gested that some type of powerful buoy such as Is used by the lighthouse service, should be Installed at the day rendezvous and others at each of the night rendesvous. Hew 8h Escaped.

GAME HERE SUNDAY Starrs Will Meet New Connersville Team.

As the local baseball season Is rapidly coming to the end, much interest is being shown around town in the Richmond Starr's chances for winning the flag in the tri-county league. The Starrs are quite a little in the lead of the race, and need only two more victories to make sure of the pennant. Sunday the team from Connersville will play here, and If the local squad can come out of this contest on top, they will be almost sure of leading the league, as they would then be within a single game of cinching the leadership. However, Manager Sullivan, of tthe Starrs is not feeling too certain of victory on Sunday, as Connersville is coming her with an almost new line up which, being unknown in Richmond may puzzle the local players. Only one amateur game is scheduled for Sunday. In this lone contest the Senators of Richmond will play at New Paris. Next Thursday, the Waldorfs will go to Greensfork to play at the carnival contest in that town. One week from Sunday, the Empires and Waldorfs will meet at Athletic park for the city championship.

PURCHASES AUTO: III 3 HRS, IT'S JUIIK Saved Seven Years to Buy an Automobile Then It Exploded.

NEW YORK, Sept. 16. After saving up for seven years to buy a motor car, Adolph Brambler; a Brooklyn clerk, has today only a worthless pile of junk to show for tbe $2,000 machine which he purchased. He had his car exactly three hours. After two hours' instruction in running the machine, Brambler set out alone to drive home. He got over the Brooklyn Bridge all right, but decided he had better get the assistance of a " chauffeur to thread the crowded streets of the Brooklyn business section. He pulled up at a garage near the bridge and asked a negro standing outside where he could get a driver. "Why, sure, right here,' replied the negro. "I'm a chauffeur." The negro leaned over to crank the engine. An explosion followed. Brambler was jerked out of his seat and thrown to the pavement. The car burst into flames. The negro disappeared. Ten minutes later nothing was left of the car but charred metal. MINTS OF COUNTRY TO BE REORGANIZED WASHINGTON. Sept. 16. Reorganization of the mints of the county, with reductions of the forces employed there, is being undertaken by Director Roberts. This was one of the chief objects of hi strip to San Francisco and Denver from which he has just returned. 1 When Congress passed the recent law authorizing the issue of gold certificates for bullion it practically made further gold coinage unnecessary. From now on, there will be little gold coinage, and the work of the mints will consist largely in coining minor coins. The New Orleans mint will be entirely discontinued. No appropriation for it will be asked next year. Elsewhere at tbe mints at Philadelphia, Denver and San Francisco, the number of employes will be gradually reduced. A large saving each year will be thus effected. It is the purpose of Director Roberts to reduce forces with as little hardship as possible. ' Vaca'ncies as they are created will not be filled. The older employes will be given consideration, and only those who have been employed for a short time will be let out. Sporting Gossip BASEBALL NOTES. In Ward Miller the Cubs have copped the star outfielder of the Eastern league. Detroit pitchers have gone to the bow-wows, and the Tigers will be lucky to retain second place. The Boston Rustlers look, to be the only team that can get to "Rube" Marquard, the Giant bearcat. Brooklyn fans are wel pleased with the showing made by "Red" Smith, the new Superba third baseman. Pitcher "Buck" O'Brien, who has joined the Poston Red Sox, won 24 and lost 5 gam. j pitching for Denver this season. Nothing loose in Pennantville for Roger Bresnahan this season, but his Cardinals threw a regular scare into the big boys at that. Rubber underwear must have been the right number for Tommy Madden. The fat rascal is doing great work behind the bat for the Quakers. Bill Setley, former player, umpire and promoter, is on his way to Honolulu and will bring back a college ball team composed of Chinese boys. Having failed to put over a deal for the Boston Nationals, it is said that Ned Hanlon is now trying to purchase an American League franchise. Pitchers Dunbar and Dahlgren, of the" Superior team, winners of the Minnesota-Wisconsin league pennant, both pitched no-hit games decently. Jimmy Burke has his Indianapolis Indians out of the cellar and is boosting them to hold a place in the first division in the American Association race. While his team has come very near falling out of the American league standing and into Lake Michigan, Bib Ed Walsh has gone right ahead pitch ing as grand ball as you would wish to lamp at. The Athletics are wishing morning, noon and night that the Giants would cop the National League pennant. They figure that there is more coin in a world's series played in New York than In Chicago. Every day or so we hear of a new manager for the Cincinnati Reds and also for the St. Louis Browns. Nowadays, if a manager doesn't make good right off the reel, off goes his knob. WITH THE BOXERS. Leo Ketchel, brother of the late middleweight champion, is touted as the coming lightweight champion. Mike Shreck and Hugh McCann have signed for a fuss to take, place in Richmond, Indiana on September 25. " As Oct. 2, the day on which Johnson and Wells are to box In England, is the Day of Atonement, many of the Hebrews of England tried to get the promoters to postpone the battle to give them a chance to witness the contest. But the promoters declined to make any change. Those Girts. "What a charming dress, my dear such a lovely shade of pink! You always show such perfect taste." (Merciful heavens! That dress must have been made for a wagon cover. And why In tbe name of. sens she -wear pink: when it makesT'ber look like a chunk of mud I cannoe.imrln-Wivn.

AVIATION SKETCHING

Army Officers to Learn to Draw When Flying. WASHINGTON, Sept. 16. One of the most important steps yet taken by the officers of the army aviation school in the advancement of aviation, as an offensive and defenseive power in war, will be made sometime this week, when Lieutenant LeRoy Kirtland, riding as passenger in the Wright biplane with Lieut. H. H. Arnold, will make a sktch of the country surrounding College Park. Since the officers at College park,, with the single exception of Lieutenant Kennedy, have learned to fly, the next important step is for each man now to make maps of the country passed over in flight. Lieutenant Kirtland is recognized as one, if not the best, sketch artists of the United tSates army. He is a graduate of the Corceran Art Gallery of Washington, and during service in the Philippine Islands a number of years ago he was the only man doing sketch work under his own ideas. He will go up with Lieutenant Arnold, taking a large pad, and the necessary pencils and drawing pens with him. As this work progresses the length of the flights will be increased and Lieutenant Kirtland wil before long be taking sketches of the country on cross-country runs. Lieutenant Arnold and Captain Beck are also good sketchers, and they will take up this work later. Each man tin the service wil be required to make a study of sketch work. This work is considered extremely important by the War department, and the Signal Corps, under whose jurisdiction the aviation school comes, hopes that within the course of a year the flyers wil have sketch work down to such a fine point that in case of war with a foreign power they could bring their map-sketching, ability in good use. REFUSES TO BUILD SCHOOL ADDITION Wayne Township Trustee James Howarth emphatically stated Saturday that another room would not be added to the No. 10 school houuse, corner of West Fifth and School streets. He declared that there was no reasonable ground on which It could be demanded and said that he did not intend to put the township to the expense that the building of an addition would entail. Residents of No. 10 scjiool district have been raising the cry that the school Is overcrowded and that the children can not receive proper in struction under such conditions. There are 64 pupils in the school according to Trustee Howarth. and two teach ers. The school is composed of two rooms for the lower and higher grade pupils. It is said a petition is being circulated calling upon Township Trus tee Howarth to add another room to the building and supply another teach er. Mr. Howarth declares that with com petent teachers such as are now in charge of the school, the number of pupils can be properly cared for and instructed. Such a number is not excessive, he maintains. There are several pupils in the school who are under the legal age of six years and several who belong In other districts. Mr. Howarth say that these will be removed but that no other action will be taken. GEORGE SWAIN IS TAKEN FROM JAIL George Swain, formerly engaged in the sign painting business in this city, who has been confined at the county jail for some time because of insanity, was removed to the Eastern Indiana Hospital for the Insane at Easthaven, Saturday. His application for admission to the asylum, upon which action has been delayed for so long, was accepted by the superintendent of the institution, Friday. The notice of the acceptance of the application for Swain came as welcome news to the sheriff for the reason that it has been impossible to properly care for Swain at the jail. The application for the admission of Richard R. VanZant has also been accepted, but at present he will not be removed to the institution. He was removed from the jail to his home the first r?.rt of the week and is being well cared for by relatives. As he is not violent, Judge Fox instructed Sheriff Stern to allow him to remain at his home for the time being at least. City Statistics Deaths and Funerals. ALSOBROOK The funeral of Mrs. Mary Alsobrook will be held Sunday afternoon, at half past two, at the home, 131 South Ninth street. The Rev. Lightbourn will officiate.

FOUR VERDICTS BY

CORONER ENTERED Finds One Suicide, that of Mrs. Hafner, Was of Hereditary Cause. The verdicts on four violent deaths were filed by Coroner R. J. Pierce with the county clerk Saturday. The death of Mrs. Rose Hafner Monday afternoon at her home 27 South Tenth street, was found by the coroner to have been caused by the drinking of carbolic acid with suicidal intent. The testimony of John Hafner, husband of the dead woman, that Mrs. Hafner had been depressed In spirits for some time previous because of illhealth, is contained in the coroner's report "Heredity," states the coroner, also contributes an explanation to this untimely death. The father and pater nal grandfather both suicided. For these reasons there is ground for the belief that Mrs. Hafner was mentally unbalanced at the time of her death.' The verdict concerning the death of Frank Nordyke Thursday at his home, 112 North Eighteenth, is death resulting from suffocation self-inflicted by hanging. Nordyke was found hanging from a cross beam in the woodshed. The testimony of his wife and father that he had been despondent because of ill-health is contained in the report. Both tell of his queer actions on the day with pieces of rope and of being questioned what he intended to do with it. He replied. ''I don't know. The coroner finds that James Caldwell came to his death at his home on South Fifth and O streets Monday night, as result of a cerebral hemmorrhage, produced by undue excitement which was caused by a visit from his son. Death resulting from a cerebal hemorrhage is the verdict concerning the death of James Keeler, at Middleborough, Monday morning. AVIATOR ALIGHTS TO SEE HIS WIFE (National News Association) SUSQUEHANNA, Pa., Sept. 16. Aviator Ward, who resumed his westward coast to coast flight at Calicoon this morning, arrived here at eleven o'clock, the purpose of his stop here being to have a short visit with his wife. Susquehanna is 200 miles from New York and 66 miles from Calicoon. The start from Calicoon was very thrilling. Ward just managed to clear the high fence of Peter Martin's farm by the fraction of an inch. Then he picked his way through a tangle of trees. After clearing these obstructions he made a loop around the tower of St. Joseph's college and dashed back over the field, again narrowly missing the trees on top of the hill. Ward swung off toward the north in the direction of Susquehanna, but did not follow the Erie railroad track which makes a 4 miles detour around the mountain. Ward soared at an altitude of 4,000 feet and sailed straight over the mountain, passing the highest at a height of about 600 feet. The wind was at his back, driving him along at a terrific speed. He flew beautifuly and held his course steadily, covering the dis tance from Paliconn to Susquehanna at precisely one mile a minute. Ward started his flight from Susquehanna to Attica at two-fifteen. He passed Binghampton at two-fifty. MONEY POURS INTO THE CITY TREASURY City Controller McMahan has been busy during the first part of this month handing out vehicle licenses to the citizens of Richmond. The new or dinance requiring vehicle owners to show a license from the city as well as from the state, together with the re cent activity of the local police force in enforcing the ordinance, bas driven bicyclists and automobilists to the con troller's office in a steady stream. As the cost of the license tags varies from $.50 to $7, quite a little money has been added to the city treasury through the new tax, and the city ofcials expect that if the police keep up their present activity in making arrests of persons not having licenses, every vehicle in town will soon be licensed. Controller McMahan has just issued a list showing the sale of li censes since the first of September to be as follows: Two-horse, heavy wagons, 172; bicycles, 1254; one-horse. light vehicles, S40; motorcycles, 52; 2 passenger automobiles, 65; sundry automobiles, 84: 4 passenger automobiles, 96; one-horse, heavy, and twohorse, light vehicles, 118. This makes a total of 2681 licenses sold so far. REGIMENT HAD AN ELECTION FRIDAY At the twenty-fifth annual reunion of the members of the 36th Indiana Infantry held at the court house yesterday, W. H. Lewis, of Lewisville, was elected president for the ensuing year and other officers named as follows: Jack Walker, vice-president; J. C. Livezey, secretary; Nathan Nicholson, treasurer. At the camp-fire meeting, talks were made by Comrade T. Johnson, of Tennessee; Will H. Lowe, of Missouri; A. W. Saint and Captain D. W. Chambers, of New Castle. The welcome address was delivered by Judge Cornstock of this city. There were recitations given by Miss Anna Fetta and Robert Gordon. Miss Lucile White sans a so!o

Woman's World

Mis Scott Makas Daring Flight In Her Airship. Fboto by American Press Association. HISS BLANCHE STUART SCOTT. Miss Blanche ' Stuart Scott, the young woman who recently has acquired such distinction as a daring and intrepid aviator, is the same young woman who nearly two years ago drove ber automobile from New York city to San Francisco. Miss Scott's companion on this wild and dangerous adventure was Miss Gertrude Phillips. Their arrival in the Golden Gate city alive and unhurt is a fine tribute to American womanhood. Miss Scott flies one of Baldwin's red devil metal, biplanes. . This aeroplane, on account of its speed and diminutive size, is considered much more perilous to operate than any other. Its driver must be gifted wHb unusual nimbleness of mind and body. Miss Scott chafes very much under the flying restraints placed upon ber on account of ber sex. but she succeeded In showing ber ability to fly as high as ber men competitors in a recent air contest. There is serious talk of organizing a woman's aero club here in America, the idea being recently batched by Baron von Dewltz. and tbe women interested in aviation are enthusiastic about the movement It is proposed to model the - club after tbe Aerial League of Great Britain or tbe Stella of France.
