The first pageant of the Fall Festival agricultural parade, three squares long, was witnessed by twelve tnousand people. The parade consisted principally of fine blooded stock entered in the horse show. Heading the line ci march were two automobiles occupied by Police Chief Gomidii and members of the parade committee followed by the Richmond City Band. The Richmond Fire Department with five companies which will exhibit the horses used with truck.0 and hook and ladder wagons followed. Immediately following the department Avere mounted horses, a fine team of black horses and dun horses hitched to light driving rigs, and several fine horses single driven. Next came Long Sought, covered with a streamer, bo named, 2:16, driven by the mayor to a sulky. Eleven prancing ponies followed by fourteen masterful looking draft horses brought up the rear. EXHIBIT OF GRAIN VERY INTERESTING The exhibit of grain in St. Mary's Hall, North Seventh and A, promises one hundred exhibits from as many entries. ' -flip to 9 o'clock this morning there were just eighty-six entered. Of this number about five have their products ready for exhibition. The grain committee hus attributed the small number of entries to the fact that a great many farmers are still sowing wheat and cannot leave their work. However members of the committee are optomistie and expect many more entries late this afternoon. There are three classes of corn exxhibits, white, yellow and mixed, all of which are displayed on long tables in addition to the exhibits of clover seed, timothy seed, oats and wheat.

Fall Festival Notes, Sidelights

White Girl More and better White and Buff Orphingtons are raised in Wayne county than any other section of eastern Indiana, said J, C. Thurman, who has charge of the poultry exhibit tenf on North Ninth street. The exhibit is well filled in all classes, but the Orphington entry list is by far the largest. Several prize winning hens, prize winners at shows in Dayton, Hamilton, Cincinnati and Columbus. Ohio, shows are on exhibiti, some of which are valued by their owners at $50. Horner pigeons, trumpsters and rabbits are also exhibited in the poultry tent. Mr. Thurman is pleased with the poultry show, the entries being the finest lot he has ever seen in a show. DECORATE MACHINES FOR PARADE FRIDAY Citizens who expect to take part In the automobile parade Friday will be required to have their cars appropriately decorated, before they can secure a place in the line. The committee in charge hopes to have a parade Friday that will reflect the greatest amount of credit upon the Fall Festival and for this reason requests that all cars taking part in the parade add to the attractiveness of the pageant by suitable decorations.

VALUABLE PORKERS NOW ON DISPLAY When the uninitiated city man gazed at the display of blue-blooded hogs at the market house, South A street, he realized that the only real-for-sure thing he knew about the many porkers was that if he owned all of them he could quit his job and live off the proceeds very comfortably the rest of his life. All the members of the well known and very expensive swine family on exhibition in Richmond for the next three days has a pedigree to prove that they actually belong to the porcine aristocracy, but the mulefooters appear to be a little more haughty than their neighbors, for Stephen Kuth has circulated the report that they can trace their ancestry without a miss clear back to the time Mr. Noah made his unique collection of live stock. Judging from appearances there is enough lard on the hoof under the dis

Chinaman

With a strongly welded chain of circumstantial evidence drawing her to almost certain doom, Mrs. Anna Davis Sing, the young white woman who is in the county jail at Chicago awaiting trial on the charge of murdering her Chinese huisband, Charles Sing, Is confident that something will happen to substantiate her plea of innocence. Police attracted by the cries of Mrs. Sing found her in the bed room of their home shortly before dawn with her night gown smeared in blood and her husband lying dead on the bed. He had been stabbed. Mrs. Sing alleges that her husband was the victim of a Tong feud. She adds that she was awakened out of a sound 6leep by the groans of her husband after he had been stabbed and that she saw two Chinamen standing at the bedside. They threatened to kill her, too, she asserts, if she made any outcry. She believes she Bwooned at this point. For the next thing she remembers is that she"awoke with her husband's bleeding body lying across her legs. play tent at the market house to bake all the pies in Richmond for the next six months. One big tusker is the proud possessor of 820 pounds of this commodity which is so clearly related with the high cost of living. He was in a very indignant mood this morning for his owner compelled him to submit to the indignity of having his bristles manicured with a currycomb. He was not the only porker, however, forced to undergo to this ordeal, and their anguished snorta brought tears to the eyes of many of the most hardened spectators. "What do you estimate in round numbers that all this becon is worth?" inquired a reporter of a man engaged in recapturing a small pig which had crawled under a partition and was attempting to filch a dinner in the neighboring pen. . "Well, that's hard to estimate," he replied, "but I expect it is woith more now than the egg supply of the county will bring in the December market. Figure it out, I'm too busy." Sure

Dishes Made in 1 700 in Historical Exhibit

"Women of today may not think it ple.isant to sit all day at a loom and weave rarpet, bur I like it," said Mrs. Mattie Butts, of New Paris, who has charge of one department of the historical exhibit at the public library. Mrs. ButtR will weave carpet on a loom, which is known to be more than one hundred years old. Mrs. Butts has prepared the loom fur tomorrow's work and will sp-ni the entire day weaving. The loom is the property of John Phillips. 523 North Eighteenth street. It was broucht here from Union City. Nothing on display' at the library is less than seventy-five years old, according to Mrs. Sarah Bernhardt. There is a room in which is displayed old furniture of the Victorian period, where the first piano in Richmond is also on display. The piano was brought here from Philadelphia in 183. It is the property of Mrs. Emma Dugdale and was made in 1S22 by Frederick R. Burkhart. Philadelphia pioneer piano manufacturer. The piano forte consists of six octaves, and the keys are of ivory. It Is flnUhed in curly maple and mahogany. Display "Copper Luster." "Copper luster," the lost art, may be seen in a set of dishes owned by Mrs. James Frame. The dishes wre the wedding present of Indians to Mrs. Frame's great-great-great-grandmother and are known to be more than two hundred years old. The dishes are very rare and valuable. One of the oldest displays is a set of bed curtains which came from the East Indias. The set is believed to bo the oldest knoown. The Srst record of their transfer was in 1796, when they were handed down as a legacy. The curtains are made of India cotton. They are the property of Laura Gano. Other interesting displays are those which represent the products of the METHODISTS TALK ABOUT EFFICIENCY ECONOMY. Ind., Oct. 1. The meeting of the Methodist ministers of the Richmond district closes here tonight with a sermon by the Rev. R. C. Jones. This morning's program proved to be the most attractive onu the course, consisting mostly of a symposium of nine short talks on the elimination of waste in church finance, by W. M. Hollopeter; in friction, by J. H. Richardson; in multiplicity in meetings, byj. P. Chamness; in study, by C. B. Sweeney; in the pulpit, by J H. Runckle; in pastoral work, by R. L. Black; in over-churched communities, by H. W. Miller; in loss of converts, by J. D. O'Conner; in transfer of members, by M. R. Pierce. At 2 o'clock this afternoon Raymond II. Wehrly, of Middletown. delivered a sermon on "An Efficient Christian." The Rev. Mr. Wehrly declared that the value of a church worker depended largely upon his adaptability to the surrounding in which be is placed. "To be a success, a minister must place himself on the same level as the members of his congregation, as a unit and individually," said Mr. Wehrly. "Not only must he place himself on their level, but he must be one of them and make them feel that he is one of them. This is not only so of the minister, but of all church and charity workers. Nothing can be accomplished among people by impressing them that they are not on the same level with yourself." Mr. Wehriy was followed by B. Earle Parker on "Social Efficiency in the Church." The speaker asserted that social efficiency in the church consists largely of making the members and visitors feel that the church is a home, the leaders of the church, persons of similar natures with them. "The District Superintendent. An Efficiency Engineer," was the subject of an address by the Rev. L1 J. Naftzer. The leading talk of the afternoon was that of A. S. Preston, of Winchester. He spoke on "The Utilization of By-Products." ERECTS AEROPLANE AT COURT YARD Frank Castori, aeroplaneist, will made a flight from Reid Field tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock. Castori arrived in this city last night and erected his machine at the court house grounds this morning. He is skilled in the art of flying and he is expected to make the first successful flight in an aeroplane ever attempted in this city.

This was made by a olockmaVr named Vaton. who lived in Cincinnati, and it is believed that its manufaire took place prior to lS2n. Old peVjerware, samplers, made in 110 antl-JSli; andirons, crane, gamuts and Kitch ovens, all more than ninety year old. form a part of the interesting exubits. Coverlets 125 Years Oik . A beautiful stenciled coverlet. ie property of Mrs. John Endsley, YvJ know n to be more than 125 years old. In spite of the fact that it was made before 1790. the colors in the design are almost perfect. Like almost every other piece of work on exhibition, it was completely worked by hand. Near it is displayed a sampler, worked in 1810 by Lydia Erwin. Mrs. Bernhardt is displaying a number of old Indiana books which she collected, she says, because they are so little known to Indiana people. "The Battle of Tippecanoe," was written by William Wallace, father of General Iiew Wallace, and presented to General William Harrison in manuscript on the battle field in 1835. Another. "The Hoosier Nest," by John Finley, was written in this county about one hundred years ago. There are a number of other books which denote the presence of genius among the first Wayne county and Indiana pioneers. One of the library rooms is set aside for an' exhibit consisting of small models of th Wayne county log cabin, the old wooden machinery, looms, sgitkning wheels, toys and implements ir,se here while Indians still formed a majority of the population. EXCITEMENT CAUSE OF LOSS OF SIGHT As the result of extreme excitement suffered during the Dayton flood. Homer McCoy, 512 South Fifteenth street, has lost. bis power of vision and physicians regard his recovery of sight as doubtful. McCoy was in charge of a five and ten cent store In Omaha. While returning to his home in this city he stopped over in Dayton for a night and while there he was caught in the big flood of last March. The suffering he endured from lack of food and the grave danger that seemed iminent at all times of destruction by fire or water affected his nervous system rcsu'Mng in his ; loss of sight. He came to Richmond as soon as he was able to get out of Dayton and remained here for a few days before returning to Omaha. He was back in charge, of his store only a short time until his eyes were affected. He returned to Richmond to await the return of his vision. M.

To be protected from disease ts the inalienable right of every child born in Indiana, is the creed oVtne Indiana Health department. But this Is cot done, says Dr. Owens, which, he says.
