FIRE EXPERTS

IN GOOD SHAPE OF BELGIANS

Members of State Prevention Body Inspect Main Street Stores From Roofs to Basements. L. H. Stubbs, Humorist Takes Place of C. J. Doyle on Program Following Probe Reports. Prying Into attic storerooms, roaming through cellars and going through every room of business blocks in Richmond, thirty-flve two-men committees of the Indiana State Fire Prevention association are making the Xnost complete investigation of fire conditions in Richmond which has ever been made. Tonight in the high school auditorium, the members of the association will return a favorable report of the wiring, construction and other features of buildings which count in fire Insurance rate making. Harry Hodgin, building inspector, and Fire Chief Miller found today that Richmond buildings compare favorably with those of cities with the lowest rateB. 8tubbs Substitutes. Hon. C. J. Doyle of Chicago will not appear. In his stead one of the greatest humorists who could be secured, L. H. Stubbs of St. Joseph, Mo., will tell in a humorous speech what lie knows of fire prevention. Fire Marshal Longley will be at the meeting tonight, but will not make a prepared speech. His secretary, will replace him on the program. The Commercial club members were surprised with the business like way Jn which the association members took up the work today. They have been working together for years, and immediately paired off in committees and started their investigations. Of the committee with which Building Inspector Hodgin and Fire Chief Miller Investigated with today, all of them said the defects as far as the buildings ere concerned are few. The fire fighting apparatus was inspected with the same result. Any hanges which should be made in the equipment will be suggested at the meeting tonight. A partial list of the members of the association follows: John W. Minor, First deputy state lire marshal, Indianapolis; Ralph E. Riohmond, Indianapolis; J. W. Coleman, Warsaw; George T.

K, OF C, OBSERVES DAY FOR COLUMBUS

Charles M. Neizer of Fort Wayne, tate deputy of Indiana Knights of Columbus, was the speaker at a Columbus day meeting of the organization last night. Mr. Neizer spoke interestingly for an hour on Columbus and his gift to the world, when on October 12, 1492, he made the discovery which led to the populating of the American continent with civilized persons. He was introduced by Father Cronln, who had charge of the meeting. Father Cronin made a few remarks apropos of the day. Miss Blanche Luken played a violin solo, accompanied by Miss Alma Pfafflin. A vocal solo was given by Miss Meta Pfafflin, accompanied by Miss Alma Pfafflin. After the program an informal reception was plven in the K. of C. Rooms for Mr. Neizer. There was a good attendance of members of the local K. of C. and a number of out of town guests were present.

22,000 Belgian Soldiers Seek Refuge There, While Ostend Fears Raid by Zeppelins. BY LEASED WIRE. OSTEND, Oct. IS. As a result of the Immensity of military operations about this city and raids by German airships, the Belgian government will go to France. Three German aviators flew over the city late Monday afternoon and two of them each dropped a bomb. Neither of them did serious damage. According to reports received here the Germans have occupied Ghent and are proceeding westward. TRANSFER GOVERNMENT. BORDEAUX, Oct 13. Official announcement was made today that the Belgian government would be transferred from Ostend, which is men-

anced by the Germans, to Havre, France. Some members of the cabinet of King Albert have already arrived at Havre, where temporary quarters have been provided by the French government for their use. It is understood that King Albert will remain with his army. .This announcement indicates that the allies have little hope of being able to keep Ostend out of the Germans' hands.) The announcement of the flight of the Belgian government to Havre, after being successively driven from Brussels and Antwerp, is explained thus: "The Belgian government desires full liberty of action, and for that reason it was decided that It should come to France." HELD IN HOLLAND. THE HAGUE, Oct. 13. At least 22,000 Belgian and British soldiers and marines have crossed the Dutch frontier to escape from their German pursuers, according to reports received

by the Dutch government from various points on the borden. This number may be increased to 30,000 when all the reports are in. All these soldiers have been interned, the British being sent to Groningen. The Dutch are confronted by a difficult task in caring for these men, as well as for the great masses of civilian refugees, who have fled from Northern Belgium, but the government will make any sacrifice necessary to uphold its neutrality and follow the dictates of humanity.

WITH ENTHUSIASM BOYS PLEDGE HEW

MEMBERS TO "Y

Pride in Quarters Spurs Younger Workers to Spirited Effort in Inter-City Membership Contest. Members of the boys' department of the Y. M. C. A. last night proved themselves the real live wires of the association. The sixty boys who attended the supper for organizing membership teams to assist Richmond in winning the inter city membership campaign trophy, are determined to get more points In the contest than the men's teams which were organized last week.

Evidence of the spirit the boys are

carrying Into the contest was shown

when a number pf them announced they already had secured new memberships and renewals that would

count in the contest. Pride Adds Power.

Interest in the contest has been

stimulated by the recent completion of the new boys' department. Pride

In the new quarters will give an added determination to the efforts to secure new members. The boys will carry the campaign beyond the membership basis, and have planned to raid on persons who would not be interested in a membership in the association, but might be willing to contribute something to help defray the expense of the new department. Each worker was provided with pledge cards which will be presented to persons interested in the "Y," who may care to subscribe something. Following explanatory talks by Ellis Learner, and J. H. McAfee, eight captains were chosen to lead the teams,

and each captain chose his own men. No limit was set for team membership and captains may add as many to their teams as they see fit. The following were chosen captains: Edgar Lioehr, Ray Kinder, Logan Keelor, Alfred Lanning, Ewart Bavis, Warren Meranda, Clarence Porter and Donald Warfel. The Y. M. C. A. will give a banquet for the members of the boys' team that makes the most points in the campaign. This has created much rivalry.

POET HAIIDLEY SEES REAL FIGHT1N U. S. Relay of Reports to Postoff ice Clerks Moves Employe to Write.

From the front of the post office, the Palladium scores are being relayed back into the interior of the office where the clerks and carriers while on duty there, can keep in touch with the world's series. L. A. Handley, superintendent of mails was moved to the following while listening to the megaphone reports of the game: OUR WAR. What care we for Zeppelin air craft And the great seige guns of Krupp, When we think of "Home Run Baker," And the bitter, bitter cup He is quaffing, while Hank Gowdy Stings the ball for two and three; What care we for war and slaughter1 Boston has a batting bee. England's crown may turn to pewter.

Kaiser Wilhelm lose the fight. Bombs may falj, destruction shatter All our dreams of peace and light; Men may fight about sheer nothing, Cossacks fiercely cut and hack, But the damage isn't in it With what Stallings done to Mack.

ECONOMY, Ind., Oct. 13.

Cured a Severe Backache. f "I had been a great sufferer with back che so that I was unable to bend. A friend recommended Dr. Jones' Liniment and the first application gave me relief. One bottle entirely cured me. "A few days ago a lady called who complained of great pains in her back. I gave her a little of Dr. Jones' Liniment and she was relieved immediately after applying it. We are recommending it to all our friends." Bo writes M. P. Stutzman, of Begins, Pa. Pains in the back are often mistaken for kidney trouble, and so-called kidney cures and plasters are resorted to, which, failing to relieve, only tend to aggravate the disease and prolong the suffering. Dr. Jones' Liniment relieves Klieumatisni, Neuralffta, Headache, Cramps, Cold in Chest, or any pain or ache that can be reached by external application.
