RICHMOND PEOPLE LACKPATR10T1SM Comstock and Robinson Deplore Custom of Neglect in City Schools at Memorial Day Exercises.

Richmond people are cold and unresponsive to patriotism due to patriotic instruction In the schools, m the sense of addresses made Saturday by Kev. Daniel Robinson, of Indianapolis, and Captain Paul Comstock at the Memorial day services in the Coliseum. The meeting -was well attended with Bbout 1,500 present. "Star Spangled Banner," the air to which custom demands that all rise and uncover, was not played through some oversight and the speakers had no opportunity to test the crowd. Rev. Mr. Robinson, speaking in a clear firm voice which could be plainly heard over the entire building, made Bn excellent address. The ritualistic service to the dead soldiers who fought in the Civil war, was presented by officers of the G. A. H. Ignorant of Hymns. Comstock first spoke of the fact that the ladies of the W. It. C. each year had to teach school children who Were in the drills, the verses of "America." lie declared that in few ecliool rooms, Js the singing of patriotic songs general enough for the pupils to learn the words nnd that in most of 'hose rooms, they learn only the first verses. Lawrence Handley made reference to the fact that at Chautauqua last year, when "Star Spangled Banner" was played, only one man in a big audience arose and stood during the playing of the selection. Rev. Robinson remarked that he noticed the flag flying over many school buildings, but because patriotIsm is not taught in the schools, the Hag above fnils to have significance. Me also made reference to the fact that Wayne county, the birthplace and home of Oliver Perry Morton, Indiana's famous war governor and presidential advisor, has no memorial to the great statesman while in almost any other county in the states there is a statute. In the court house In Richmond there is a table dedicated to Morton but this is seen by only a tew persons. A special drill was given by twentyfive school children. A reading by John Markley was well received. I'aul Comstock presided.

He always endeavored to beautify It in one way or other, and hi.-? home on the Hudson is surrounded by Bn iron fence which was purchased from Richmond, and which surrounded the old county buildings in that beau tlful Indiana town. Expatriates Himself.

Warwick Castle, which Mr. Reid has purchased for his home, is the ancient and stately home of the Earl of Warwick. It will he a matter of great surprise to even the most intimate of Mr. Reid's friends that he is lo become an expatriated citizen of the United States. The castle which he has purc hased is one of the finest and most picturesque feudal residences in all of England. It, no doubt, dates from Saxon times. The oldest portion now standing is the huge Cfesar's tower, nearly 150 high. The treat bulk of the residential part belongs to the Fourteenth and Fifteenth centuries. The roof of what is known as the great hall of Warwick Castle and several other rooms were restored in the old style after a destructive fire In 1871. Warwick Castle, to those who have Been it, is a matter of wonderful study. In it it might be hoped by all who know Big Dan Reid that he will find a haven of good rest for all time to come-. Takes Along $80,000,000. Mr. Reid left for England w ith more than $So,(mmi,000. made in various ways. His desire has been at all times to be the richest man in the world. All of his efforts from his early life until the latter days were in the way of acquirement of riches. At one time he organized a matrimonial bureau in Indiana. He was going to marry everybody. His most intimate friends are aware of the fact that it was his ideas that embodied what is known as the MeKinTey tariff bill. !t is generally supposed that Mr. Reid's personal friend and business associate, .Indue William 31. Moore, drew up his bill, which afterward was introduced in congress by former Senator Aldrich, of Rhode Island. Major McKinley, who was then chairman of the ways and means committee of the house, fathered that bill. It became known, cn that account, as tho McKinley bill. J. Pierpont. Morgan always looked upon Mr. Reid as a past master in finances.

NOTHING TROUBLES (Continued from Pace One) race, one of the coolest demonstrations of pure nerve was made by a movie man on the south turn during the Isotta and Marmon accident. He was fortunate enough to catch Gilhooley and his mechanician when their car hit tho retaining wall and they were thrown onto the track. As Dawson rounded the curve at a terrific speed, the operator caught Dawson's car when it started to skid, and swinging his machine around with the skidding car, he caught the entire accident, and when Dawson's car finally left the track it passed the operator at a distance of about ten feet, and he stayed his post and got the entire picture. However, he was a little shaky in the knees when relating the incident. This accident was undoubtedly caused by the amateurish driving of Gilhooley, most of the drivers being afraid of his way of driving. The erratic Irishman was stopped on his seventeenth lap and warned by the judges to discontinue his foolhardy recklessness. He seemed to think there was nobody on the track but himself. Drivers Under Strain. The average motorist who sees a race of this kind can not appreciate the terrific strain on the driver, and when the Sunbeam threw a tire on the back stretch and turned over, if the driver, Chassagne, had had the strength the accident would have been averted. In fact, he righted his car and pulled it back on the track, but when it started to skid again, he had not the strength to pull her back into place. Boillot demonstrated the coolest bit of driving and skill when he pulled

his car back on the track after having run entirely off it, breaking his frame ami causing him to leave the track. Boillot is, without doubt, the greatest racing driver in the world today. One of the sad things in the race was the appearance of the hospital after the accidents occurred. Those who had -'arted with confidence and daring were now on cots, attended by nurses, but even while suffering they listened with rapt attention to the roar of the cars as they passed near by, and Dawson asked to be informed as to the standing of the different cars during

the remainder of the race. Thomas Cold-blooded. Thomas, of the Delage, and winner of the race is, Without doubt, the most unconcerned and nonchalant driver the writer ever saw. After winning the race and making a couple of extra laps, he stopped at the pit and yawned, finally sliding out of the car, raised the hood and examined his motor, and after satisfying himself that his car was in good shape, closed the hood, and turning to his mechanicians, smiled in a sardonic manner, said the one American expression he knows, d , and very unconcernedly endured their embraces and excited congratulations as if entirely bored by their very presence. This, however, was not true of Duray, Guyot and Goux. When they finished their race and pulled up at the pits they were as joyous as any. Boillot and Goux embraced, and the excited Boillot jumped into the car and opened the motor, seemingly in a vain endeavor to tear it up in his excitement and joy. After the excitement had somewhat subsided Goux indulged himself in a couple ot bottles of rare vintage and sat. on the edge of the pit watching the remainder of the race. Bob Burman showed his skill when his Keeton puled up to the pit with a broken valve. Burman en)ved the part from the sizzling hot motor, pulled out the broken valve head, put in a fresh one and in less time than can be imagined the Keeton was off with a roar. The race is over. The Frenchmen will start home very much richer and with a good laugh for the American cars. Congratulations are due to the men who stayed with the race and the smooth way in which the great crowd was handled. No spectators were injured or even in harms' way, and speedway racing is certainly a superior way to hold races. In the old road races it was no uncommon thing for a dozen or so spectators either to be killed or seriously injured. With all due respect to American cars and American entries, the foreigners surely demonstrated i superior racing knowledge, and in the future the American cars will have to go some to get the big money.

Wild Rover Flounders Helpless, Grounding on High Lake Shoal

Through prompt and efficient action of young men and boys who acted as j life savers, no lives were lost yester-1 day in Richmond's first great marine j accident, the grounding of the Wild I Rover on upper Morton lake.

YINGLING DEFENDS POLICE RECORD

Former Patrolman Yingling today submitted the following statement for publication: Editor Palladium: I wish to state that I have thiB day tendered my resignation to take effect June 1 as Mr. Kversraan requested (not the polite board). As I am now free to talk, I wish to say in regards to the article Mr. Eversman had in your paper May 11, for the benefit of my family and friends, that I was a booze fighter and one not capable of doing police duty. In reply I want to say that I am not a booze fighter. He said he sent me home on circus day, because I was not capable of performing my duty as a patrolman and that complaint had come to him about my condition. He told me he smelled liquor on my breath and I told him I had had a few beers after the parade, as I was in plain clothes. Then he said my eyes looked bad. I will admit that my eyes were not as bright as his, for he had had a good night's rest and I worked all night and part of the next day and with the heavy cold I had and the few beers my eyes were probably blurred, but my mind was as clear as his, if not clearer. He also mentioned aabout local option election day. There was no complaint brought to him that day. I took one drink before I left home that morning and he smelled it on my breath and accused nie of it and I admitted that I had. He cannot say or prove that I ever took a drink while in uniform. I wish to state also there has been more than a dozen of our best business men

told me I was a fool to hand in my j resignation. They told me to stand fori a trial which they are supposed to ! give me, according to the book of! rules and also state law s. They also I wanted me to let them go to Mr. j Goodwin and talk to him. I told them I it. was not Mr. Goodwin's fault, as j

Mr. Goodwin had always treated me like a gentleman ever since he has been chief. If Eversman practiced what he preaches he would have a ditierent. mind than what he has now. He said that I had complained that the action of the board was too severe. I still say so and every body

else. I did not say I thought a reprimand was enough. I did say, however, that there were other ways set apart in the book of rules for punishment of such conduct. He also said the former board had reprimanded me for the same charge. However this is an error. The former board never reprimanded me for drinking on duty. Even if they had this was none of his business. I wish to state I am not publishing this article to start a newspaper fight, but simply to defend myself and family. I am the only Republican on the night force and that is what is the matter with Eversman and he uses the booze for a bluff, to protect the Progressive party by trying to make the public believe it is no political scheme. Signed W. B. Yingling.

Basing his sermon on the recent disaster to the Kmpress of Ireland and the uncertainty of the future, Rev. It. C. Leonard, pastor of the Central Christian church, pleaded with his audience yesterday evening to decide for Christ and the Christian life at once. "Of the present we are certain," he said, "but tomorrow may never come. We should always be ready as life and the future is full of uncertainties. No one intends to be lost, wo all intend to get ready for death when it comes, but ve often put getting ready off until it is too late. We should act now because we are assured of the present, but for the future we are promised nothing." D. Ioe Pitzpatrick talked at the morning service.
