FIRST DAY CROWD (Continued from Page One) size trom one or two couples to large families. Early in the clay the refreshment stand sold out of ice cream, and business of all concession holders exceeded even their most wild hopes. Down town streets were practically deserted a-- were stores which remained open (Inline; the afternoon. However th"Te was good trading in the morning. It is believed that the opening day, although conducted for a few hrndred dollars, was worth thousands of dollars in advertising for the city and for the p-irk. Makes Long Swim.

Chief Goodwin announced today. These pools are combinations of two teams in the National and American leagues and are sold daily before the games are begun. The man holding the combination which makes the most number of runs wins $8. Each ticket sells for ten cents and several hundred dollars worth of tickets have been disposed of. Selling pools on baseball games is a clear violation of the gambling laws. Chief Goodwin says, and will not be tolerated. STATE INSPECTOR VISITS FACTORIES W. Bond, a deputy state factory inspector, arrived In the city yesterday and expects to remain here a month or six weeks making an inspection of public and business houses. He says that he cannot announce the result of his tour of inspection until it his been completed, when he will file his report with the factory inspector. He is being accompanied on his rounds by City Building Inspector Hod gin.

A post office inspector who made an examination two months ago recommended that an addition of a half mile east of the Shute farm be made on Route 3, the carrier of which is Will Morgan.

Route 5. carrier, Joseph Peltz, was lengthened by the addition of the road from the New Paris pike to the National road past the water works. To Rural Route 8, Earlham Heights, Charles and Gilbert Avenues have been added north of the country club. Patrons formerly served from boxes on the National road will be required to move their boxes to the front of their homes.

Tfl

of Flags on Emblem's Birthday

BY LESSIE M. ARNOLD, Patriotic Instructor. June 14th is the anniversary of the birth of our National Flag, and should be observed by the people by the displaying of the national colors. More importance should be attached to this day for the purpose of inspiring a deeper reverence for the national emblem. It Is not to be inferred that the American people are lacking in patriotism, for they are jealously loyal to the republic, but foreigners have frequently commented on the lack of respect shown by Americans to their flag, and the peculiar indifference displayed when the national airs are played. Last Memorial Day, of those who witnessed the parade of the Grand Army Veterans in Richmond, it is safe to say that not a half dozen men in the crowd doffed their hats when the colors went by. Surely the banner of red, white and blue, with its cluster of stars, for which so many Americans sacrificed their lives, deserves what courtesies it lies in our power to tender it. NICHOLSON REFUSES TO DISCUSS RETORT Reply to the statement of Prosecuting Attorney Reller yesterday will bo made tomorrow by S. Edgar NicholI son, chairman of the citizens' local opI tion committee, to whose report Mr. 'Reller took exceptions, j Mr. Nicholson refused to discuss the ! situation today, but said that his reply i tomorrow would cover everything. Be cause of his work on the American Friend today, Mr. Nicholson was unable to have his reply completed. "Reller opened up new issues which I never intended to touch in my report," Mr. Nicholson said. "I was not re-opening the campaign in the committee report, but merely closing it. 1 will say nothing regarding the evidence which Mr. Reller demands, but 1 will give it to a grand jury. "The poll book investigation alone is a fruitful field for a grand jury investigation. In one place we found thirty-nine or forty names had been given in as voters, while only six were entitled to vote. In seven wards we found 390 names which could not be found in the city directory. "We are willing to furnish a grand jury with the names of men who said they were made offers and to whom advances had been made, or who had first-hand information such as would be regarded as evidence before a grand jury. These will be given only to a grand jury, however." AMUSEMENTS At the Murray. At the Murray, Monday night, June 15th, the Francis Sayles' Players will offer George Broad hurst's greatest play "Bought and Paid For," which was successfully presented here last season at the Gennett by the road company and "nade one of the biggest hits of the season. The cast for the play is a short one, however. Mr. Sayles says that each part will be well taken care of, as he has fifteen people to select from, Mr. Sayles himself will be seen in the part of Robert Stafford, the multi- millionaire who marries a telephone girl. There are four acts to the play, all of which are layed in New York city at the present time, which reveals a wealth of elaborate scenery and magnificent draperies. The play is one of the very best that can be secured for stock and Mr. Sayles has promised us an elaborate production with a complete cast. The seat sale for the i first week openeu today at the Murray theatre. SUE TO FORECLOSE. Suit to foreclose fifteen promisory notes on a real estate mortgage was ! entered in circuit court todav bv George B. Dougan against Earl H. Xusbaum, Edmer I). Kierns, James A. Stephenson and Alfred L. Randall. The notes totaled almost $2,000 which is the amount of the demand with interest and attorneys fees. The notes were assigned by Randall to Dougan.

Begin the day by displaying the flag from your own home or room. "Old Glory" should float from every house top on June 14th, jubilantly to wave in the breeze its message of love and liberty to all the sons of men. It floats today over nearly one-tenth of the earth's dry land. One twentieth of the whole number of the people of the world give it proud allegiance. Inconceivably more men have fought for it, than for any other flag in existence. Many more have died for it, than any other flag. The American flag floats today the wonder of the civilized nations. Today its thirteen little stars are multiplied to a magnificent forty-eight. With never the loss of a star, but constant gains, with no stain upon its stripes of crimson and white, it floats in rainbow tadiance upon the winds of blood bought freedom, loved and venerated at home, respected and feared abroad, the type of all that is highest and holiest in human aspirations emblem of all that is brightest and best in human achievements. CHICAGO ASKS CASH, BANK CLOSES DOWN CHICAGO, June 12. The La Salle ! Street Trust and Savings bank, commonly known as the "Lorimer" bank and its three subsidiaries, the Illinois State Bank of Chicago, the Broadway bank and the Ashland-Twelfth State Bank, were closed today by order of the state auditor. Bank examiner Harkins was placed in charge of the institutions. The immediate closing of the Ia Salle Trust and Savings Bank was precipitated, it was said, when a demand was made today on the bank's officers for $650,000 of city funds. The bank was unable to meet the demand and the bank examiner took charge. The three smaller banks were ordered closed in order to protect their depositors. The last bank statement of the La Salle Savings and Trust Bank published under oath of April 4th, 1914. showed that the bank had deposits of $5,572,992.15. The capital stock of the bank is $1,000,000 and the statement showed the surplus at that time to be $343,631.97. ASKS DIVORCE.
