ROOKS

IS HEARD BY Woman Who Purified the Graft-ridden City of West Hammond a Most Entertaining Speaker. (Continued from Page One.) "The little mother" of West Hammond, so to Bpeak. The residents of the town called on her for help and she did not fail them. And she uncovered and ran to earth one of the nicest little schemes tor municipal robbery ever concocted. Its details she gave last evening. And it included every phase of municipal activity, from the incorporation of a village into a city, the consequent running up of tax valuations to excessive and prohibitive figures, the private anrichment of public officials, the abuse of the administrative and police powers, the assessments for alleged public improvements which were consummated through scandalous and bare-faced cheating, the collusion with state officials and all the rest of the sorry mess more or less familiar to the student, or mere observer, of municipal administration. The most thrilling part of Miss Brooks's relation of these incidents is that in .which she describes the protest a number of women made against ithe defective paving of a street, which, in the first place didn't need .paving and whose work was being 'done in a flagrantly inefficient manner. At the suggestion of the mayor who stated he had no authority to stop these proceedings but ironically appointed the feminine property-holders deputies, the latter went into the street and tried to prevent the contractors going on with the work. The noble mayor had, in the meantime, telephoned the police who charged the women with guns, knocked them down, beat and cursed them, and in the case of Miss Brooks, dragging her by the collar down an alley and throwing her into jail. Miss Brooks stating that when the policeman struck her Slapped Policeman. "This is the first time I had. ever been struck by a man. And I slapped him 'in the face," this eliciting the greatest applause of the evening. Miss Brooks then described the manner in which they organized their forces and put a reform ticket in the field, this ticket being elected, despite the furious machinations of the graft era, last spring. , Since that time this administration and the reform element has sought to clean out the gambling dives and the red light district which have made West Hammond notorious and they have just succeeded in getting the licenses of these houses revoked as .recorded in the papers of last week. Miss Brooks's strenuous activities ",ln this latter phase of municipal house cleaning almost incapacitated her for iher appearance in this city. Miss . Brooks is an attractive young .woman of superior birth, breeding, education and social affiliations and ;that a girl of her type should devote jher life to the interests of the people, irighting their wrongs in so far as is i within her power, and making an effort to assist in bringing this country tback to that plane where it would indeed be the land of the free and the home of the brave," is an example (which should be emulated by every icitizen of both sexes. The Stroller. "The Strollers," an aggregation of jfour singers and instrumentalists de- ! lighted their' audiences yesterday in i their two appearances, the evening one in costume. The members of the ; company are the possessors of excellent voices, both in solo and in ensemble and have with them an accomiplished violinist who played last (evening. Afternoon Session. Mr. Adrian Newnes pleased- a large audience in the afternoon with the (presentation of dramatized excerpts from "The Message from Mars," and Dr. Ross gave another of his series of lectures, this on "The Sources of -Americanism.' MORNING SESSION. "The arguments against the ballot for women which held good forty ,years ago," said Dr. Edward Ross in his lecture before a Chautauqua audience this morning, "do not hold good now. Conditions have changed." - This apropos of his subject, "The Remoulding of the Family," which was m analysis of the psychology of the family in its relation to society and an illuminating commentary on the evo lution of those social and Industrial i phases which have brought about certain re-adjustments. That Dr. Ross is an optimist of the highest type was deduced from the substance of his lecture. For he declared his belief in the integrity of the social body and his disbelief in that pessimism which saw in shifting social bases nothing but retrogression. "I do not believe in the hypothesis of moral decay," said Dr. Ross. ' Divorce Not Degenerate. Applying this to the question of divorce Dr. Ross stated, in effect, that the Increase of divorce was not necessarily an indication of national degeneracy but of the courage of women In daring to assert their emotional and industrial independence which as naturally followed the change of social base now under way as light followed the dawn. : That as women became more enllghtoned as their educational opportunities enlarged and their whole social pctlgpk broadened, tbey. pulled

LARGE CROWD

away from the thralldom of sex and thought for themselves. That all this attended that change which was created through the development of certain civilization and labor-saving agencies which reduced the family, once a small community of varied industrial interests, to a set of individuals united for companionship. "Women were no happier then." said the speaker, referring to the time in which divorce was not so usual, "than they are now: But they did not dare assert themselves." Dr. Ross going on to say that women, profiting by the example of their unfettered sisters who had entered nearly every department of industrial and professional life, rebelled because they found they could take care of themselves. "Divorce does not necessarily mean an increasing number of unhappy women as it is significant of woman's confidence in her ability to maintain herself," said the speaker. "And she chafes if the emotional relation is not satisfactory." For the number of cases of divorce in which alimony was not provided for was constantly on the increase, stated Dr. Ross. Nor are men less restive under present conditions, which do not make of a wife a sort of industrial necessity and under whose ..operations he formerly regarded her as a profitable investment. Wants Soul-Mate. He has more time now to look for a soul-mate and resents the forced support of a woman who no longer pos

sesses an emotional appeal and does not exist in that era which made her a domestic necessity. While, therefore, divorce was more prevalent it was indicative of sane and healthy social conditions rather than of degeneracy. Dr. Ross's animadversions upon the servant girl problem were interesting and illuminating. He stated, in brief, that the "sucking of the girl into the factory, store and office" was consequent upon these same shifting bases and of the stigma that was cast upon household labor. This stigma the fault of the mistress who alone could remove it. For when the latter permitted the work of the household to be upon a plane which ranked it with other self respecting occupations, then would the day of domestic emancipation be at hand. That it was "silly" of women to scold this class of girls for refusing to go into domestic service when they were the very ones who cast odium upon it. "We do not find that the family is dissolving," said Dr. Ross, in conclusion, "nor that it is being made over. The family whose stability as a social unit was formerly more the result of externals Is now maintained by inward and spiritual forces." Adrian Eloquent. "The Passing of the Hickory," a lecture by A. H. Adrian, of California, which followed, was a convincing and entertaining exposition of the right of the child to be well born and well trained, and of the crying necessity for the teaching of sex hygiene In the public schools. It was an eloquent diatribe for the casting of worn-out traditions into the discard and the recognition of the necessity of creating new ones. KILL SHARKS FOR FUN. Kanakas Can Whip the Man Eaters In a Fair Fight. " In the Pacific ocean lives a race of men who outswlm fish and, who can kill man eating sharks in a fair fight. They are Kanakas, the seamen who are natives of the Hawaiian Islands. "A native can whip a shark because he can outswim him," states an American who has been living in the Islands many years. "I never heard of a native being Injured by a 6bark, and there is a superstitltion among them that a shark is afraid of a Kanaka and will refuse to fight 'This is not true, however, and grew out of the fact that a native always whips, a shark. A Kanaka will spy a shark and, taking a knife between his teeth, dive in after him. It Is a fair - fight, because the shark has teeth that are as deadly as the knife. The shark win make for the swimmer, and when It is in range will flop suddenly on its side, which position is necessary before it can use its powerful jaws to crush an enemy. As the shark turns the native will sink rapidly and come up and rip the creature open with a quick slash of the knife. Sometimes they will avoid the shark time after time, cutting it on the nose and pricking it to arouse its anger. "For excitement It outthrllls a bull fight" Detroit Free Press. TUBES FOR LUNGS. Complex System by Which Insects Are Enabled to Breathe. While mammals have lungs and fishes gills, Insects have neither one nor the other. Instead they present a complex system of tubes running throughout the length of their bodies, whereby the air is conveyed to every part of the system. To guard Insects against collapse from pressure of air, nature has fur nished the little creatures with a fine thread running spirally within the wall3 of the tube, just as a garden hose is protected with wire. Many flies live first in the water as larvae. Arranged along each side of their bodies is a series of exceedingly thin plates, into each of which runs a series of blood vessels. These plates are placed to absorb the oxygen contained in the water. The tail ends In three featherlike projections, and by means of these the larvae cause currents of water to flow over the gills, and thus their efficiency is increased. Gnats also exist in the water as larvae. But they have no gills. Their breathing is accomplished by means of a tube situated at the tip of the tail. The larvae floats along head downward in the water, with this tube Just above the surface, so that the creatures may breathe. Harper's Weekly. Cheap Sheep.

TOO IS CHOSEN BY PROGRESSIVES

He Will Head the District Ticket in the Eighth. Big Convention. FOULKE WAS SPEAKER Declares Taft Entitled to No Consideration. It's Teddy or Woodrow. MUNCIE, Ind.. Aug. 28. With everybody "whooping it up" for Roosevelt and Beveridge, and the party in general.the Progressives of the Eighth District, in convention here yesterday afternoon, nominated Edward C Toner, publisher of the Anderson Herald, as the Progressive candidate for Congress from this district. The nomination was by acclamation ar all other talked-of candidates did not allow their names to go before the convention. It was the first convention of the Progressives in Delaware county, and to those who attended there was no doubt as to the strength of the party in the Eighth district. Each county was largely represented and the court room was filled to overflowing. It was the largest district convention held in this city for many years. Resolutions were adopted hailing Col. Roosevelt as America's foremost leader and most valued citizen, and acclaiming Hiram W. Johnson as an aggressive fighter for the right. Albert J. Beveridge's advanced position and the things for which he has labored were approved and hailed with delight. The convention pledged the common rule for all future sessions. Calls For Cheers. During the reading of the resolutions pandemonium broke loose at the mention of Roosevelt's name. A large bandana with Roosevelt's picture and tearing the inscription, "The Battle Flag," was carried through the room and the low bello wings of the Moose became roars. It was some time before Chairman Frank Snyder could restore order. The convention was called to order at 2 o'clock by District Chairman Clayte Sells of Anderson, and Frank Snyder of Portland was chosen permanent chairman. Mr. Snyder declared that the Progressives would win in their first fight. In a short speech William A. Bond of Richmond recited a "nursery rhyme" which created an uproar. It follows : "Archibald went East, Penrose went West, but Roosevelt remained on the cuckoo's nest." William Dudley Foulke of Richmond was the principal speaker. He compared the platforms of the Democrats and Progressives and in explaining why he did not take up the Republican platform he said it was not worth while to discuss the policies of a party in which no one could place any dependence. He flayed the Democrats for their Btand on the trust problem and the tariff question. Appeals To All. Mr. Foulke spoke in part as follows: "From one party dishonored by the theft of a presidential nomination and from another infected with political theories which would paralyze all national progress by pretended constitutional restrictions upon national power from both these parties ruled by bosses and supported by selfish interests, alike unmindful of the demand of the plain people for better terms of living and a fairer distribution of the rewards of human industry, the Progressive party of the United States contdently appeals to all patriotic citiaens upon the issues of common honesty, the direct rule of the people and social and industrial justice. "As to the Republican party and its candidate, little need be said. We Indiana Progressives have reason to be profoundly grateful that the iniquities committed by Kealing and Wallace, Watson and Hemenway are known to ' all- There were the corrupt primaries at Indianapolis where Wallace excluded the Roosevelt watchers from the polls, where he announced days before the election that Roosevelt men would not be allowed to carry a single ward. "The primary was packed and the tate convention was packed, and in the Thirteenth district Taft delegates were returned against the sworn statement of a majority of the members that they voted for Roosevelt. Passes Up Taft. "The frauds committed in Indiana, were repeated in cases even more outrageous in California, Arizona, Washington, Kentucky, Alabama, Texas, Michigan and other states. By means of these frauds, Roosevelt, Who had been the choice of the people by overwhelming majorities in every state where the people had by law a chance to speak, was counted out, first by a national committee, and then by a convention with packed delegates who were allowed to vote upon each other's credentials. Thus Taft, rejected by the nation. became the candidate of the Republican bosses, and lies under the burden of accepting a nomination won by crime. His cause is so hopeless, his administration so utterly discredited, that there is no need of spending further time upon his candidacy. "The coming struggle Is between the Democrats and the Progressives, between Woodrow Wilson and Theodore Roosevelt Avoid Vital Questions. "The old parties do not touch the vital questions which are necessary to restore th4 American people to a healthy social and industrial condition. The Progressive party alone is the party that is moved by a living sympathy with the disinherited and proposes that the government 6hall extend its protecting arm over those who are un fortunate without their fault not as a

matter of charity, but as a measure of social and industrial justice. "It proposes that the crying evils of unemployment, child labor, unnecaBeary dangers and diseasees incurred in special industries, overworked and other similar evils shall be remedied not by mere private benevolent or charitable associations, but by the states that compose our Federal Union. "And what shall be said of its leader, who from the time when he first entered the White House was the inspiration of a great movement for the moral regeneration of America. "Men say, it is unfortunate if our people come to believe that our national welfare depends upon one man alone. There are hundreds of others if we knew them, just as good and brave and honest and efficient. "Aye, but we do not know them. We have not tried them. I doubt not that Mr. Wilson would endeavor, if elected, to give America the best administration he knows how to give. I do not even doubt that Mr. Taft started with that determination. But an untried man has failed us once and a still more untried man may fail us again."

P.R1 SHOPS IS PROBABLE Richmond may secure the general shops which the Pennsylvania railroad will establish at some point between Columbus and Indianapolis. An energetic campaign of local civic organizations and of the municipal authorities, it is said, may influence the Pennsylvania officials to locate the shops here, give employment to 2,000 men, and cause the erection of hundreds of houses to take care of the influx of workers. It is generally accepted that the Pennsylvania acquired possession of the tract lying north of its right of way from North Nineteenth to Twenty-fourth streets for shop purposes. Richmond is considered the logical point for the construction of the shops by railroad men. It is said that the double tracking of the system between Columbus and Indianapolis will result in the handling of an increased traffic and that shops to repair engines and cars will have to be built somewhere between these cities. Columbus and Indianapolis are eliminated as locations because they are terminals of divisions. It is also the policy of railroads to establish their shops somewhere between terminals. The western terminus of the Pennsylvania lines proper is Indianapolis. The Vandalia system operates from Indianapolis through Terre Haute to St. Louis. The tremendous cost of securing real estate at Indianapolis for the shops will also work against the selection of that city. The present holdings of the company there are used exclusively for yards and switching purposes. The shops at Indianapolis, Logansport, Bradford Junction and Richmond are interchange shops. Shou.d Richmond secure the shops they would do the work now done at these yards. It is expected that the other interchange shops would be dismantled or their working force considerably reduced. It is not believed that Logansport or Bradford Junction are geographically situated for the proposed shops. Only one division of the road passes through either of them. Richmond is preferred. It is said, because the Indianapolis and Columbus division, the Chicago and Cincinnati division, the J. M. & I. division, and the G. R. & I. pass through this city. With the establishment of the shops here, the company would be able to look after the repairs to the running stock of all these divisions. All the general repair work west of Columbus would then be concentrated here. That Was Different. Repeatedly he had heard the young woman boast of eluding the vigilance of the conductor and riding home free. so when he got a chance to sneak a ride for both of them be slipped the dune back into his pocket and smiled npon her in triumph. "Didn't yon pay your fare?" sha asked. "No,w said he. "The conductor nev er even looked our way. She said nothing, but her look of disdain was unmistakable. "I've heard you tell many a time of doing the same thing," he said den antly. "Oh, well," she said, "thaf s differ ent.

ITALIAN ROMAUCE TOOKJPLACE HERE Fiomena Sena Spurns Man Who Slew Cousin and Weds Another.

When it comes to the marriage game, Filomena Sena, a native of the sunny land of Italy, draws the line on gun fighters. Miss Sena was brought to this country by Michael Lapenna, whom she Intended to marry. But when Michael Lappenna shot his cousin, Tony Lapenna. at the Elliott-Reid fence factory several months ago she absolutely re fused to marry him. Mike was acquit ted of the charge of murder, by a jury in the Wayne circuit court on the rlea of self defense. However, that did not swerve Filomena from her firm resolve not to marry Mike. Neither did the argument made by Mike that he had spent hard earned money to pay her passage to this country and trans portation from New York city to Rich mond alter her determination. Yesterday afternoon Filomena, with one slender arm gracefully entwined around the arm of Salvator De Gianni, mounted the stairway to the second floor of the court house, where they blushlngly informed the marriage li cense clerk that they desired a license to wed. De Gianni had little trouble in ing and winning Philomena. Salvator had never killed anyone, although he had been in trouble before, having been sentenced to the state penitentiary on the charge of assault and bat tery with intent to kill. Salvator spent one year in prison and was then par doned. He was arrested, following a cutting scrape on North Thirteenth street about two years ago and was caught only after a long chase through the east railroad yards. The Italian on whom he used his stilleto recovered from the effects of the gaping wounds made by De Gianni's knife. De Gianni and his bride were both born in Italy. De Gianni is twenty-four years old and his young bride is eighteen years.. Singing Wires. Sometimes when a tempest Is raging telegraph wires are silent, while in time of calm they are sonorous. Evidently the vibration of the wires is not due to atmospherical agitation alone. A scientist of Berlin who studied the cause of the singing of wires in time of calm concludes that the vibration of the wires always presages the ap proach of bad weather. When the sounds are deep the change of weather may be looked for within two days. When they are shrill or sharp the storm will come within a very fev hours. It is difficult to determine the cause of the singing. An Italian scientist calls it "seismic agitation prod need by barometric depression and transmitted to the wires by the telegraph poles."

The Hold Aviation Takoa on Th Who Have Ever Tried It, Flying is a sport that truly exemplifies one of the greatest Darwinian theories. Only the fittest survive. It taxes one's physical resources. It makes tremendous demands npon oue's nervous assets. It sharpens one's Intellect. It develops one's faculty of Judgment, It demands the very best a man of the best type can bring to it. The better the man, the better the aviation sportsman. For this very reason the sport has attracted men of the finest type that have ever Indulged in sport. It Is for this very reason that the world has been amazed at the high intellectual type of human that has embarked In this activity. For this reason I call It the klngliest of sports. No one who has ever flowri a if aero plane can be Induced to abandon it utterly. The craving to fly win sur vive with the man who haa thrilled In response to the sensation' of driving his own craft. The strange, wild, al most uncanny, exhilaration of rushing through the air like a bird cannot be put into words by a clumsy architect of sentences like the present writer. It takes a poet Like D'Annunzlo to tell the story properly. Clifford - B. Harmon in Country Life In America.
