BIRTHDAY

IS LEGAL But It Would Be Legal. to Hold Primary Election on That Date. A step toward the settlement of the controversy concerning the date for the coming Republican primary election, was made today when city attorney A. M. Gardner reported that after an extensive Investigation, he finds that February twelfth Is unquestionably a legal holiday. As a result of this flndlngt It Is possible the date of the election will be changed from Lincoln's birthday, although it would be legal to hold it on that day. Gardener's investigation shows that the original act of 1905 concerning holidays was amended in 1907, a matter that has been overlooked ho far in the discussion. Therefore the dlsput:ed act of 1911, which did not make 'Lincoln's birthday a holiday, is unconstitutional, as It amended the act of 1905 instead of the one of 1907. This means that February twelfth is still a legal holiday In Indiana. However, adds Mr. Gardner, an election on this date would not be Illegal. It la doubtful, though. If such n election date would be desirable. The executive committee is In communication with Indianapolis in an effort to find out the advisability of holding the election on February 12. CYANIDE IS FOUND; MYSTRY SOLVED William McVay Kills Wife and Children and Then Ends His Own Life. I National News Association) TEKRE HAUTE, Ind., Jan. 24. Local police today declare that Wm. McVay administered cyanide of patasHlum to his wife and two children and then committed suicide by swallowing the same poison in whiskey. This solution of the mystery surrounding the finding of three bodies In the McVay home early yesterday by McVay's step-daughter Is borne out 'by the coroner's examination, traces of cyanide being found in the stomachs. The esoape.of one child is believed due to the fact that she strangled and did not get enough of the poison. An empty whiskey flask found In the hovel showed traces of the drug.
