CLUBS AWARD VASE TO MRSJOHNSTOH Biennial Convention Visitors Admire Design by Richmond Art Critic.

A vase designed by Mrs. M. F. JohnEton, of this city, was late this afternoon presented to the state doing the greatest work for the General Federation of Women's clubs, the biennial convention of which is iu session at Chicago. Following Mrs. Johnston's pattern, the Misses Overbeck, of Cambridge City, formed the vase, which is attracting much attention at the art exhibit in connection with the convention. The exhibit of paintings is directed by Mrs. Johnston. Most of the canvasses and paintings on display are from the Association of Women Painters and Sculptors at New York. At the time the vane was made it was thought best to make more than one from the same design for fear of a flaw while being fired. Two of them were perfect and one, a replica of the one given to the wining state, will be presented by the women of the Indiana Federation to the national president, Mrs. Percy V. Penny backer.

that his nephew was the only heir to his mother's estate, which is valued at over $20,000. He then added that the direct heir to this estate would be removed if young Holler as insane, was again returned to the Fasthaven hospital. "Sou know my nephew was released on parole three years ago from Easthnven, and his parole would have expired within a week after the reported discovery of the poison in the spring. That looks queer to me," Mr. l.amb declared. Works Mother's Farm. Mr. Lamb said that up to the time Holler was sent to the insane hospital over five years ago, he had been a hard drinker and that when he shot off the hand of his brother, now dead, and then resisted arrest he was suffering with delirium tremens. He said that since being released on parole he had not indulged in any intoxicating liquor and devoted his entire time to cultivating his mother's farm. "My sister knows there is nothing wrong with Will now," said Mr. Lamb, "and this effort to have him returned to Easthaven has almost worried her sick. The report that he has been going about the country the last several days armed to the teeth is absolutely false. Since his attack on his brother, all the weapons in the house have been kept under lock In a secret place. Mrs. Holler did not want Will to even go hunting after his return from Fasthaven, fearing that some report would be started that he was insane again and was up to some mischief." Prosecutor Reller had a long conference with Mr. Lamb this morning, the result of which is not known, but it is believed the charges made byMr. aiu will be thoroughly investigated. Mr. Lamb retained the services of a Richmond attorney today to represent his nephew.

Here's what one reader offers as a solution of the automobile noise nuisance: Editor Palladium In your issue of yesterday you stated that it had been proposed to stop by ordinance the great and unnecessary noise made by autos. I am sure our people would not submit to the injustice of taking from any citizen or class of citizens any valuable right or privilege without equitable compensation. When any citizen purchases an auto, with, and a part of such purchase, goes the squawk or houk. To be sure, the secondary object of the noise is to give alarm of its approach and to clear the way, but it seems that the primary object is overlooked. Every purchaser of an auto desires that it shall be known that he is the possessor, and for that purpose the prospective purchaser is particular to have a peculiar and singular squawk or honk, that it may be designated from all others. Have you noticed that when one begins to honk, the owner of each one in the vicinity hurries out and opens up his honk, just as you have seen a flock of geese, when one begins to squawk the others all join in a chorus and each has a distinctive voice of his or her own? If you deprive owners of autos from making long, loud and frequent honks, you deprive the owners of the greatest joy of their lives, but the trade in autos will be very suddenly curtailed and the factories will lose business to such an extent as to throw great numbers of men out of employment.

Pay rolls will be reduced and the trade seriously injured. Honks are Essential. Bear in mind the importance to the owner of the honk. If he is to be deprived of this, or any part thereof, how shall he be compensated? I suggest that the city get as many pairs of cards printed as there are autos in the city, and a surplus to sell those who may be passing through, of the following dimensions and color these being the colors which have been proved to be most conspicuous and can be seen the greatest distance: They shall be fifteen Inches long, nine inches wide, have a dark blue ground on which shall be printed in words, "I am the owner of an auto." Each owner should be supplied with two, on each end of which should be two safety-pins. One of these cards should be pinned across the breast and one across the back of each auto owner. This will, in part, take the place of the honk, and, to some extent answer a similar purpose. One unfavorable feature would be that the blind could not see, but this would be counterbalanced by information given the deaf. I hear you say you fear the card signs would not be worn. Don't you believe it. Pride and vanity have much to do with it. If the honk is in any ("measure stopped the autoists will climb over each other to get the display cards. Respectfully submitted,, I. A. B. Note It was reported today that a city ordinance on the books prohibits auto honking.

"Has anybody seen Prof. Harris," is the chorus of inquiries directed to persons residing in the second block on South Ninth street. Prof. Harris established clairvoyant headquarters three weeks ago on South Ninth street and last Monday disappeared. Today an aged couple, dusty and tired looking, with shaking hands approached a housewife and inquired if the conjuror and healer Prof. Harris lived in that neighborhood. When the woman replied that the stranger disappeared three days ago the couple seemed surprised and the man replied, "Why he told me to return today for a second reading. He promised to locate for me my son who has bfen lost for a score of years. Last week when I saw him and told him my case he said that the 'spirits' were not working good that day but if I would leave a certain sum of money he would tell me where my son is now." Tears came to the eyes of the aged couple when they were informed that the clairvoyant had left town. "We had expected to know where our son was by today," said the aged woman. Arm in arm the couple turned and went back down Ninth street. Locates Burled Treasure. Neighbors were attracted by the land office business transacted. It is said that each day of the three weeks

stay his office was crowded with persons desiring readings. Bashful maidens as well as some of the old maids of the city crowded the reading rooms for some glimpse of their future. In a small crystal glass Prof. Harris told the fortune seekers to gaze and behold their future. To one middle aged man of adventurous nature he directed him that about t-n fot from the trunk of a certain tree in the Ileid woods he might find treapuro which may years ago had been buried

by a miser In that community. The faker demanded a small retainer fee and when the treasure was located he should have half of it. To another man Prof. Harris told him that on a knoll on the old Jake Martin farm, east of the city, another treasure had been burled under a large upturned iron kettle. Again hedemanded half of the supposed treasure. According to stories emanating' from varied sources the mysterious stranger was a prince in black sheep clothing. It is said he lived at the Westcott hotel and entertained a few ' insiders" in a lavish style.
