THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM. THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 5, 1912.

BOARD REFUSES TO PAY SMALL BILL Pending a Decision From the State Authorities Will Take No Chances.

A strict interpretation of the state law regulating business tranactions between municipalities and members of the city government will hereafter be enforced by the board of works. This morning a bill for sixty-eight cents due the Bartel-Rohe stationery firm was held up pending an investigation! of the legal status of the case. W. H Bartel, senior member of the firm, is a city councilman. The city has been able to save money. on transactions involving1 office ' furnishings "by dealing with the Bartel-Rohe company, and to avdid difficulties, the bills have, been presented by Rohe. This practice cannot be condoned explained City Attorney Gardner today. He said that a decision handed down some" months ago on a parallel case was that a partner could not deal with a city if the other member of the partnership held a city office. Whether the field examiners will direct the city to secure all the money paid the ' Bartel-Rohe firm, is not known. The examiners have not reported on this matter. The law provides that the city shall not be the loser, and that the man selling the goods must pay the loss. Field examiners Boggs and Smith, working on the city's books some time ago, directed City Controller McMahan to refund to the city a small sum he had collected for a trip to Indianapolis to purchase vehicle tax checks last year. He did so. This morning a bill for $3.20 presented by Marketmaster Taylor for railroad fare to and from Indianapolis, and for one meal while there, was turned down by the board and held up pending an investigation of the merits of the case by the city attorney. It is held that if the city controller could not collect his fare, although expended on city business, Marketmaster Taylor cannot collect his fare.

Betts, pastor of the First Universallst church, pronounced the benediction. ' Frederick Davenport was introduced as temporary chairman and his keynote speech was a caustic and bit'ter arraignment of Barnes and Murphy and au offer of the Progressive party and Its platform aa the saving thing for the people and the country. . Chairman Davenport next - called GoL Roosevelt as the man of the hour. HHe said that Col. Roosevelt made the fight at the Saratoga convention in 1910 because Governor Hughes after a splendid battle for public rights had personally asked Mr, Roosevelt to taks up the burden which Hughes was lay log down. Chairman Davenport said that Mr. Roosevelt made this fight against his own inclination. ; DIVORCE GRANTED ' Richard J. Elvord was granted a di vorce yesterday from Maude Elvord on in cnarge of abandonment, by Judge 'Fox In the Wayne circuit court. TRAPPING EAGLES.' The Chinas Get Them With a Baited ' . Nat and a Decoy Bird. Every year, according to an old custom. In the second quarter of the September or October moon, the inhabitant of the Chinese province of Shantung go to Mongolia to hunt the eagles which abound In that region. The huntsmen march In troops along the roads, carrying on their shoulders long poles from which are suspended their baggage and provisions and on which are perched tame eagles to be used as decoys. : The hunters make use of a large net, spread open on the ground aud baited with small dried fishes. In the midst of which is placed a tame eagle. The decoy naturally begins to devour the bait and thus Invites Its wild cousins to follow its example. When the birds have alighted and are' feeding " the hunter, from his hiding place two or three hundred yards distant, quickly closes the net by means of cords and thus captures the eagles. ' Eagle hunting Is vary lucrative. The feathers are used in the manufacture of fans and are sold at a high price even in China. There are three sorts Klcpei. black with white centers; Chema white spotted with black; Ton taing, half white and half black. Several eagles contribute to the making of. fan, for only a small part of the plumage can be utilised; hence these (an am rsry costly. ; .y-v- -.u ;

AN ALIEN

Is the University of the Present Day to the Life About It, Its Seeming Practicality Being Merely a Cold, Scientific Scrutiny.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. There is a good deal written of late about the relation of the college and university to the life of the present day. Or lack of it At least of the incompatibility of the university ideal, or itB social standards, with that of the national. . This was illustrated at first hand last week through an incident in which the writer was concerned. Not that it was, of itself, of any particular Importance, but was a straw which showed which way the wind blows, to use a homely metaphor. Dr. Edward Ross, of the University of Wisconsin, who, within the past few years has been attracting attention with his studies of modern conditions, especially in their relation to national life and which have appeared in both magazine and book form, and who delivered that fine series of lectures' before the institute and Chautauqua referred to a time or two before here, was the medium through which a glimpse was caught of the entirely impersonal attitude the university takes toward the public and the utter impracticability of a fusion between its substance and that of the life about it Dr. Ross was approached by the Palladium representative, who was detailed to report his lectures with others of the Chautauqua program, with the request that he give the former a brief outline- or short synopsis of his lecture to be delivered at half past one in the afternoon so that it could be "covered" in the afternoon edition of the paper. Explaining that it was impossible for her to get there and even should she do so the report could not be made for that issue, since it would be impossible to get back to town, write the account and get it in in time. Dr. Ross was all courtesy. All smiles. He begged the reporter to sit down. He sat down by her. She explained her purpose in approaching him. He said that he could not grant her request. Not rudely, but calmly, impersonally. And why? Because he didn't have the notes with him. Because it was the reporter's place to get the account of his lecture. That was the reporter's business. Not his, Dr. Ross's. It was a matter of absolutely no interest to him whether the reporter succeeded or not. He was indifferent about the reports of his lectures in the papers. ' Didn't care ' whether they were noticed or not. Said he had not arranged the Chautauqua program and couldn't help it if he did appear at hours when it was impossible for papers to reach his lectures. Said, however, that the coming lecture was reproduced, or originally appeared, in a certain magazine, in 1903. Upon the reporter's timid remark that the office did not have a file of that magazine and that it probably could not be consulted without a trip to New York, the excellent Dr. Rob smiled merely and again remarke that he couldn't help that. However, he went on to say, it also included in chapter so and so my book on so and so, which you c get in your library. You can eas go to the latter place when you turn to town and there you will fmd it in whole. . The hour, was eleven. Another lecture was to be through by the reporter which wo not close until after twelve. Then a foray back to town with (be chance in seventeen of catching! car. Possibly and most probably a hile, instead, with the thermometer sta: ing at almost any dizzy figure in t shade. And this probability was realized A return to the newspaper office a: ter half past twelve. And then the translation of notes and preparation of copy for the after noon paper, time taken for a hasty "snack" and back to the Chautauqua bleachers at half past two. In the meantime Dr. Ross chatted pleasantly about himself and his meth ods of precedure, his preferences in the way of writing and speaking and other things. Not averse, evidently, to an inter view, although an interview was not asked for or mentioned. But entirely averse to giving a hard run reporter a little assistance. In the time taken to talk about himself he could have given the reporter all the information she needed or wanted concerning his half past one o'clock lecture. When the reporter again murmured that the office did not possess a copy of his book referred to, he again pointed her to the library, stating that she could easily go there and copy the lecture. Now this may seem banal enough and again it may seem illuminating. The point is obscure or obvious as you care to look at it. But its supposed essence , lies in this That Dr. Ross in referring the reporter to the files of a magazine which could only be consulted in New York where it was published, or some metropolitan institution where files are kept that far back and these are few and far between or to his book in the library, showed an unbelievable ignorFolger P.

INSTITUTION

ance of the workings of one of the best known modern institutions the study of modern institutions being, in fact his "speciality or or "and" a sublime callousness that ill accorded with his pronouncements from the platform. In other words, his ideas of the famed "theory and practice" were apparently as far apart as the poles, notwithstanding the seeming practicality in his platform utterances. In other words, he embodied all that selfishness and lack of human, feeling which characterizes the university in Its "dealings" with the social body. For it was not in the fact of his inability to understand the absurdity of his suggestions for securing the substance of his lectures that the point of his refusal lay. But the fact that he didn't care. The fact that he didn't want to help the reporter. And in this lack of altrurlan spirit a spirit upon which he had animadverted from the platform and which he, in a way, seemed to concentrate and embody on account of the nature of his expositions of modern conditions he illustrated the studied aloofness from and the indifference to the social body sustained by the great educational institutions. Here is a man of extraordinary acumen but without imagination. Here is a mass of significant facts he has dug out and collated. Here is an institution which invites him to verbally record these facts, explain and marshall them for the Instruction and entertainment of Its audiences. And he fires them over the edge of the platform with as much accuracy and force as a prize gunner shooting at a mark. Here's your facts, he says in effect. Make what you can out of them. What I really think is no matter. As for you go to the devil for all me. , . - That's the reason the public is questioning the value of a university training for the rank and file. Or for anybody. Our great educational institutions are not only evolving a snobbish social type in the student body and emphasizing false social standards but, far worse, a type which is totally lacking in humanitaiianlsm. Which puts the social body under the microscope and watches its minutiae wriggle with cold, scientific interest and which sweeps particular specimens into the garbage pail as soon as the latter has exhausted its capacity for dissection. Few, if any, medicines, have met with the uniform success that has attended the use of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. The remarkable cures of colic and diarrhoea which it has effected in almost every neighborhood have given it a wide reputation. For sale by all dealers. AWS THE LIMIT FOR CARRYING GUI The highest fine possible for convl tlon on the charge of carrying a co: cealed weapon, $500 and costs, wad assessed against James M. Clark ii police court this morning. He was! re-arrested after serving eleven days for drunk. About two weeks ago Clark was arrested by Officer Vogelsong while Clark was trying to get into his back yard against the wishes of his wife and children. He had a 32 calibre revolver in his pocket A neighbor woman saw him sneak along a fence with the gun in his hand, and warned Mrs. Clark. . Officer Vogelsong arrived in answer -to the call for help, and probably prevented murder, as Clark when arrested was try ing to beat down the back gate. He had threatened his wife's life.

A RICH HOOSIER SUED BY AFFINITY Jay Voss Charged With Seduction and Breach of Promise.

(National News Association) INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 5. Wealthy batchelor, clubman, farmer, poet and traveler, Jay G. Voss, of Indianapolis said to be past fifty, was 6ued in superior court today for $25,000 damages for alleged suductlon and breach of promise. Leafy Breedlove, a pretty divorcee of 21 years. Voss Is reported to be worth half a million and It is said numerous propositions to fix up the differences have been submitted to him outside of court, but in each instance he is said to have absolutely refused to consider a settlemnet. Miss Breedlove, who said she had passed as Mrs. Voss on numerous occasions, both in Indianapolis and during their travels as man and wife in Central America, says she has lived in Voss's flat and at his country home. She alleges that after following her about the streets for several days Voss finally met her and later provided her with funds to secure a divorce. She also says Voss sent her to business college at his expense and promised that after they returned from Central America they would be married. TO BE GIVEN A TRIAL Water Saving Fountains Will Be Tried in Richmond. The Richmond City Water Works company was given permission to install for trial several bubbling water fountains with cut off attachments. The fountains will run only when a lever Is turned and will save much water, the board of works believes. Superintendent Dill will erect one or two experimental fountains here, and note the saving they effect. City Attorney Gardner presented a declaratory resolution condemning all the ground from Front street, below the Main street bridge and connecting with West First street to the east wall of the Rodefeldt auto shops. Rodefelt claims the side of the hill and about five feet of the road. The matter probably will be taken to court SHARP "CALLING" GIVEN BROCK The most scathing denunciation heard in the police court room for months was given Henry Brock, a stranger here, when hailed before the mayor this morning on the charge of insulting by word and gesture Mrs. Michael Hopping, J 29 North Second street in front of a North E street restaurant last night at 12 o'clock. "I advised her to get cowhide and give you a lashing with it," stated the angry mayor, "and I would have stood by and shot your head off with a double barrelled shotgun If you had tried to get away." The man hung his head. Brock was released and ordered to behave. RELEASED PRISONER WANTED AT PEORIA John Willis, alleged pick pocket, reeased from the county jail yesterday ecause of his physical condition, was e-arrested last evening at 7:15 by fflcer Little, and today held at the Ity jail for officers from Peoria, 111., here he is wanted on a charge simar to the one placed against him ere.

FIFTEEN THOUSAND HEARDROOSEVELT Deliver an Address Today at the Minnesota State 'Fair Grounds..

(National News Association) ST. PAUL, Minn., Sept 5. A lusty brass band awakened Colonel Roosevelt at the union station here at 7 o'clock this morning, when his train arrived from Des Moines. It was accompanied by a reception committee of 200 insistent Bull Moosers who kept yelling for the colonel. Half an hour later the colonel appeared on the platform of his private car, smiling. He got a tremendous reception. "We have been awake a long time," declared members of the committee, "and we are going to stay up until we elect you." The former president was taken to breakfast at the St. Paul hotel, after which he held a reception to Minnesota leaders, who assured him that the Progressives are putting up a good battle and that the colonel will carry the state. At 10:30 the colonel went to the 6tate fair grounds to deliver an address. At the fair grounds Mr. Roosevelt was met by a special Minneapolis committee and taken to that city, where he was banqueted at noon, about 800 persons attending. A "Farmer's Dinner." After the banquet he became the guest of Congressman Nye on an automobile tour of the city. This evening the state fair management will tender the colonel a "farmer's dinner," where politics will be tabooed. Colonel Roosevelt swung into the state fair grounds while fully 15,000 people cheered. The -throng waved banadanas and the band played "Barry Owen" and the Bull Moose cries split the air. The colonel spoke to the immense crowd from a grand stand near the agricultural hall. In the course of his talk he attacked Governor Eberhart. Republican standpatter, for aligning himself with the Taft forces. Before the colonel started talking a young woman sang a melody In which a line in the chorus ran, "I am not afraid of the Bull Moose." The crowd took up the refrain, calling, "Who's afraid, who's afraid." While the colonel was talking he handed his broad brimmed hat to a Bull Mooser on the platform. "That's the hat that's in the ring," said the colonel, and the crowd cheered wildly. TO DISCUSS COURSE For the purpose of discussing what course to pursue in prohibiting the dumping of refuse and other matter which polutes the river and which Is injurious to fish, the Wayne County Fish and Game Protective association will meet this evening at the court house. Yesterday it was ascertained that such matter is being dumped into the river, and it is likely that drastic action will be taken to stop this practice. George W. Miles, state fish and game commissioner, is expected to visit this city next week to investigate this matter. PRELIMINARY MEETING The first meeting of the board of works and the city council to discuss the budget for 1913 will be held at the council chamber next Monday evening.
