QUEER SHEETS GIRL LEAVES JOME AGAIN Child Leaves Good Home When Wanderlust Seizes Her After Long Time.

The fourth attempt of the officials ot the state orphanage at Indianapolis to find a home for unruly and erratic Emma Sheets, aged 14 years, -where she would remain long enough to be adopted into the family has met with the usual result a complete failure. So Emma is today at the Home for Friendless awaiting her probable return to the orphanage. Emma has a temperment as fluctuating as the north wind and just when Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Brammer of the Husson' flats, Thirteenth and Main street, thought they had won the little girl's affections, a feat three other famines in various parts of the state had failed to accomplish, Emma did -the unexpected and took French leave Saturday morning. While Mrs. Brammer was working in another part of the flat Emma quit her ironing and departed. Mr. Brammer searched in vain for the child the rest of the day and Sunday noon had about reached the conclusion that Emma had left town. Alleges Mistreatment. About 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon Sirs. Mary Heath, 712 North Thirieenth, appeared at police headquarters and announced that the tempermental Emma was abiding with her; that the child had told her she had Seen mistreated by Mrs. Brammer, iad been whipped and driven from the home; and that she (Mrs. Heath) wanted permission to secure Emma's belongings from the Brammer flat. About that time Mr. Brammer arrived at headquarters and indignantly denied mistreatment of the child at his home. Finaljy the tearful Emma admitted that she had fibbed to Mrs. Heath. It was then decided to send the child to the Home for. the Friendless. It was first suggested, however, that she return to the Brammer home, which suggestion caused Emma to shed oceans of tears. Just why is not known, because she had a lew minutes before said she had always been well treated by the Brammers. Mrs. Heath said the girl came to her home about 11:30 o'clock Saturday morning and she decided to keep her after hearing her tale of woe, manufactured out of Emma's vivid imagination. Letters Tell Story Today Mr. Brammer found two letters Emma had written to the matron

of the orphanage but had never mailed. The first one was written late in March, just after she had been taken into the Brammer home. In it she said Mrs. Brammer was teaching her to be "nice and dean about my work, and she hasn't scolded me yet." She also wrote that "if I am a naughty girl I want them to whip me." The second letter, dated MaylO, confesses thut she had been naughty but had not been punished. She frankly admits that she had "deserved twenty whippings" and recites the fact that on one occasion while at the park she had "sassed Mrs. Brammer," which offense Emma thought was deserving cf a "slapping." The girl concluded her well written and interesting letter by saying, "I have as nice a home as any girl has and I am going to do right."

edge of marine law had been proved. "I am going to leave, but I want it understood that it is not because I am forced to, but because those directors

are a bunch of scoundrels, and I don't want to do business with them," was the characteristic statement of the captain when he spoke of his compromise. On the other hand, the counsel for the Lake and Park company admit Captain Rogers' knowledge of his rights on the lake. The chief reason that a settlement was not made sooner is the fact that Captain Rogers misunderstood the advances of the company and refused to try to make terms

with it. "I only hope to have a good month in July. Everything with me depends on that," the captain said. "I will dispose of my two lots and my home and leave Richmond after I sell my boat. I intend to build another boat down south during the winter." The captain is an interesting character for those who are acquainted with him. Because of his candidness he is often misunderstood. He has been hot-headed when anything came up relative to his contract with the company or his boat business, because this is all he has had, and he believed an effort was being made to rob him of it. He reads three library books every

week and remembers what he reads. j

Since he has been in Richmond his wife says he has read the Bible four times. He can talk interestingly on almost any subject, and can tell a new stock of stories every day. At the time of the March flood last year. Captain Rogers and his wife were prisoners three days in the old mill property below Twelfth street in Flossie Dale. After the mill was wrecked the captain and his wife rescued, Captain Rogers used the old timbers to build the Wild Rover.

BOARD TO REQUIRE

(Continued from Page One.)

he has contracted for in eleven days, and if such is the case he still has until July 15 to complete the work. The local agent of the bonding company has informed the board if Curry does not begin the work in time to complete it by July 15, he will secure Mr. Davis, a private contractor, to carry on this work. Trouble Starts Early. Plans for having streets oiled under public contract were first considered by the board last February and It was their desire to have this work done as early in the summer as possible. When bids for this work were first advertised for prospective bidders were under the impression that the city did not guarantee payments for the work, and as a result no bid was received. This greatly vexed and disappointed the board members and it was necessary to re-advertise for bids. That time it was made plain that the city guaranteed payments for oiling done

under its direct supervision and as a

result two bids were received, Curry securing the contract. He agreed to

start work within two weeks, but at

the end of that time he had failed to appear here so a city employe was sent to Eaton to see him. He told this man that he would be ready to start to work in Richmond today. The board agreed to order a water main extension on South Nineteenth street to Reeveston road today on the agreement of the Richmond Home Builders' company that they would

have five houses constructed on that

street within one year's time. The contra, t prepared by City Attorney Bond for various public improvements on South Nineteenth street, in Reeves

ton addition will be amended to that

effect. A fire hydrant is to be located at Reeveston road corner. The street car company was today ordered to improve a number of bad places in the paving between its tracks

on Main street from Eleventh street

to Twentieth street. The American

Telegraph and Telephone company

was given permission to trim trees along its right of way under supervision of the city.

Ask Neff Street Paved. At the request of Wilfred Jessup, who represented interested property owners, the board is to push proceedings for the paving of Neff street, which is a much used street for heavy hauling to the two freight stations. The Pennsylvania railroad will be asked to sign a contract to run a switch across the street, which will be placed on a concrete foundation. It is probable the work on this improvement will start about September 1. The Light, Heat and Power company expressed dissatisfaction with a

i contract offered by the city which pro- ! vided that the city make street repairs ! where streets had been torn up by the ' company, the company paying the cost of this work, because one provision was that the company would be held liable for all damage that might be

done to the street roller. The company refuses to assume such liability but offers to pay ten cents an hour for the roller. The boflrd has taken this matter under consideration. A petition for the extension of a water main on West Ninth street was received but not acted on.

STILL GOING DOWN.

The Richmond Senators received 7-to-2 beating yesterday at Marion. Inability to hit and poor fielding gav the up-state boys the game.

Make haste to mail your certified checks for income tax to Peter J. Kruyer at the Federal building, Indianapolis, or Wednesday you may find

yourself delinquent ; that is, provided you are one of the few fortunates who I can be touched by the income tax. June 30 is the last day to pay in- j come tax, and a number of Richmond J citizens who thus far have neglected ' the first Installment of the new source of government revenue, may bear a j worried look before many weeks, un-' less the warning is heeded. I There is no way of estimating how J much will be paid by Richmond citi-1 zens or how many will pay until after the internal revenue department makes its report. . The banks have ; been handling some of the business by ' exchange. Some citizens have paid ' the tax at Indianapolis. Unless it is . paid in cash, a certified check is required. Only where certified checks ' are used, do bankers obtain any infor- -mation as to who pays the tax and how much they pay. i
