ALFALFA CAMPAIGN INTERESTSJFARWIERS Routes for Two Trips Outlined by Agent Cobb and Expert. Morris Douglass, agent of the soils and crops department of the state, probably -will be sent to this county as one of the speakers to accompany the alfalfa automobile tour June 2 and 3. Douglass assisted in the wheat campaign last fall as is well liked by farmers of this county. County Agent Cobb outlined his routes for the two days tour of the county and has arranged for about ten farm visits each day. The first day route is: Richmond to Chester, Fountain City, Williamsburg, (noon lunch), Economy, Hagerstown, Greensfork, Silver Point to Richmond. The second day route is through Richmond to Centerville, East Germantown. Cambridge City, ilton, Abington, Boston township to Richmond. The automobiles will gather at the court house at 8 o'clock in the morning and will be decorated. They will first parade the streets of the business section of Richmond with a bugler. In following out the routes in the country, stops will not necessarily be made in each town, but the machines will go through the places indicated. At the close of the first day, there will be a night meeting either at Richmond or Greensfork, according to the sentiment of the farmers who will make the trip. At noon on both days, there will be a round table discussion of the morning's trip. Within a week Mr. Cobb will know almost exactly how many machines will make the tour. He expects no less than fifty or sixty. More interest is being taken in the alfalfa campaign than was shown in the corn growing contest.

A GIRL!-
8,013 Boys Attend "Y" Bible Classes
The last report of former Boys' Secretary H. A. Pettijohn presented to the Y. M. C. A. directors last night follows : The Boys' Work for the month of April 1914, has gone along in good j shape. The Bible Study classes j closed for the season with the exami- j nations. The total number taking the ; examinations this year was 240 as j compared to 210 of last year. This . insures us a good position on the hon-1 or roll again this year. The total at-j tendance in Bible Study for the j month not counting those who took the examination was 903. This was j for not quite three weeks. The total j attendance for the year in Bible Study was 8913 as compared to 6308 of last i year. This year shows an increase of 2,605. The average weekly attendance for the year was 330 as compared to 240 last year. This year shows an increase of 90 on the week. This certainly speaks well for the boys of Richmond. The total receipts of the Y. M. C. A. minstrels given in the High School building Tuesday, April 7, for the benefit of the Boys' Camp was $96.40, while the total expenditures were $43.27, leaving a total amount of $53.13 cleared on the entertainment. Adding this amount to twenty-five dollars which the Boys' Department made on the. Wabash College Glee Club concert, the total amount of the camp fund is $78.13. On the first camp which your Boys' Secretary had charge of in 1911, there was a total deficit of $12.25; in 1912 a balance of $17.44, in 1913 a balance of $12.95, leaving a net balance on the camp for the three years of $18.15 Adding this amount to $78.13 gives us a grand total camp fund of $96.27. The camp now has a permanent screened kitch- j en, a dining house, about thirty-five ! cots and a forty dollar stove with the j necessary cooking utensils and is I 5.50, lambs $7.00 7.50, spring lambs $9.0010.00.

These were all purchased from our camp fund during the years of 1912 and 1913 and since no equipment will have to be purchased for this year, the financial success of the camp is assured. "The Father and Son Banquet given Wednesday, April 29th was a success and was attended by about 200. We sincerely trust this is just the beginning of a great work for the fathers and sons of Richmond and that this idea will be followed up in good shape. The Association no doubt will play a very prominent part in this work. "The total attendance of boys using all privileges in the building for the month was 3,054. April 1913 had only 2,610.

Every member of the Board pledged himself the most loyal support of this effort to place he Religious work of the Association on its rightful basis. Mr. McAfee, who has had special responsibilities in Association work as Religious Department, spoke especially along the line of what the visit of Dr. Barbour and Dr. Latshaw would mean to the churches of Richmond. It is not the desire of the Association in any manner to intrude upon the rightful domain of the church, but only that it should be used as the necessary institutional rightarm of the church.

AUTHOR OF REIIOWII VISITS MISS WHITE
Mrs. Charles Tar bell Dudley, of London, Eng., whose work as a litterateur is attracting attention, was in the city yesterday the guest of Miss Esther Griffin White. Mrs. Dudley is in this country to look after the publication of a book which is to be put out this month by a wellknown publisher of New York, and the appearance of which is looked forward too with great interest by critics, scholars and all those affiliated with the advanced movements of the day. The work is regarded as a literary curiosity since it is a translation from the French of a noted French philosopher and writer of the eighteenth cen; tury, which has hitherto been comparatively obscure to the general public, but a source from which such noted men as Browning and Anatole France have drawn material. Mrs. Dudley, who, before her marriage, was Miss Lotta Emery of Boston, Mass., is a native of Indiana, having been born in Indianapolis, where she spent several days this week and where she addressed the Indian Woman's Press club. Mrs. Dudley has addressed a number of women's organizations since her arrival in America this spring, and speaks before the New York Woman's Press club the coming week. Such diverse personalities as exSenator Albert J. Beveridge, Jane Addams, Rabbi Stephen Wise and Ella Wheeler Wilcox are interested in the appearance of the book published under the authorship of Mrs. Dudley, whose name is another to add to the long list of writers who have made Indiana famous. 0, S, SENDS MONITOR TO TAMPICO CITV BULLETIN. CHIHUAHUA, May 9. A dispatch from General Luis Cabelero, commander of the Constitutionalists at Tampico, announces the capture of another outpost at the oil town. The dispatch was sent yesterday by way of Matamoras and El Paso. SENDS MONITOR TO TAMPICO. WASHINGTON. May 9. To more closely guard Tampico harbor and to protect the outlying districts. Assistant Secretary of the Navy RooseveP. today ordered the monitor Ozark to join Rear Admiral Mayo's squadron off Tampico. The Ozark, armed with two 12-inch guns, four 4-inch guns and three 6poundeds Is now headed for Iebos Island, near Tamipco. She is off Key West steaming under forced draught. The ship can navigate the Panucho river and it was not decided that the monitor will go up to the city of Tampico. Her twelve inch guns will give ample protection to foreigners in that city and will have a salutary effect in checking 'anti-American demonstra tions which have worried American residents and have been a source of complaint to both the navy and stat departments by refugees- from Tampico, who arrived in Washington three days ago. The man of war was sent to join Mayo's squadron following his recommendations that his fleet be strengthened by a ship carrying big guns. Vessels under his command that could pass up the Panucho river, the cruiser Des Moines and the gunboat Dolphin, are equipped with eight inch guns only. Admiral Mayo considered the armamentineffective to protect the city. The Ozark carries a compliment of 209 men. one-third of whom are marines and 150 of whom can be used as -a landing party.
