700 VOICE SUPPORT OF "DRY" MEASURE BEFORE LEGISLATOR Mass Meeting at Friends1 Church Passes Resolution Favoring Passage of State Wide Bill. A resolution supporting the statewide prohibition legislation under consideration, House Bill No- 308, was passed by the unanimous rising vote of 700 persons who attended a mass meeting at the East Main Street Friends church yesterday afternoon.

U. and AntiSaloon league from pther parts of the p.tate in asking the legislature to pass the bill. Text of Resolutions. The resolution follows: "Whereas, we believe that the liquor traffic is inimical to the highest interests of a Christian civilization, and ought therefore tq be destroyed, and "Wheeas, we believe that the sentiment of the State of Ipdiana is strongly againsst this traffic, as shown by repeated tests in county and local option elections in the State within recent years, and as further evidenced by the hostile attitude of leading business, industrial, commercial and religious interests of the commpnwealth,
Therefore be It "Resolved, 'that we, the citizens qf Richmond, Indiana, in mass meeting assembled to the number of more than 700, this 7th day of February, 1915, endorse House Bill Number 308, now pending in our legislature, providing for the staterwide prohibition of this traffic in intoxicants In the state, "That we petition the General Assembly now in session to enact this measure into law, jand "That we call upon our Senator and Representatives In said body to give their hearty support in every possible way to lta advocacy and epactment." Mrs. Edith Smith Davis gave an address "Division of the World's Needs" departing somewhat from her usual text of showing the evil effects of alcoholic drinks on the human system and asking the citizens of Richmond to study the effect on society in general, business and humanity. S. Edgar Nicholson explained the pending prohibition legislation and presented the resolutions. The meeting was presided over by Rev. Conrad Huber. Prof. Coffin of Earlham led the singing. Rev. Motley and Milo Hinkle also took part in the program. OFFICIALS END TRIP TO INSPECT TRUCKS l Ml II' Mayor and Fire Chief See Aerial Ladders Work in Eastern Cities, Mayor Robbins, Fire Chief Miller and three members of the board of public works, Alfred Ravis, Charles Marlatt and John McMinn, returned Sunday from a trip to Columbus, O., Elmyra, N. Y., and Buffalo, N. Y., where they inspected motor aerial fire trucks. The Seagrave truck, manufactured at Columbus, and the American-La France truck, manufactured at Elmyra, both pleased the city officials. At Elmyra they found that no truck was j available for testing purposes, so company agents took them to Buffalo, I where they saw one of the trucks in j operation. In a few days the officials ! will go to Mollne, 111., to see a truck manufactured by the Boyd Brothers' , company. Later they will let a con- i tract to one of the three bidding firms. ! What made a deep impression on ' the city officials on their eastern trip ; was the fact that neither at Columbus, Buffalo nor Elmyra is any effort made j to remove snow from streets. Snow ', removal is an expensive item in Rich- j mond. Mr. Bavis said, however, that ; paved streets in Elmyra are being; ruined because snow is not removed, j

S HIP WRECKED on a desert island with the girl he loved and with his rival in ber affections, Paul Lockwood, confessed card sharper, found In his very love the strength to lay down bis life for her honor. It was on board the Granada, coming from Europe, that Paul met Miss Ruth Adams, daughter of the wealthy American, James Adams. On board the Granada also was Count Dupont, an impecunious nobleman, who decided to bolster up his fortunes by marrying Ruth. When they reached New York, however, Ruth's evident favor for Paul frightened the count, and ha urged Ruth's father' to look up the other's history. Paul's admission that he made his living as a card sharper shut him out from the Adams home. .Even Ruth turned from him, and later he had the sorrow of hearing of her engagement to Count Pupont. Then came James Adams' business smash. The count saw his scheme failing, but still he fancied the pretty Ruth and hated to give ner up. fie proposed that they sail at once to join her father who was abroad saying that they could be married as soon as they reached him. Panl, learning of the plan and suspecting Dupont's villainy, sailed on the name steamer. It was the wreck of this steamer that threw the three together In midocean on a tiny island where death stared thorn in the face. By this time Ruth had discovered the real character of the count's intentions, but nevertheless when Paul, finding a few sticks of driftwood, constructed a raft with which to escape she pleaded with him not to leave Dupont behind. But the raft would hold but two. Paul, placing Ruth upon it, beat off the panic stricken Dupont and pushed away with the girl. Then all at once her suit case fell open, and out fell some baby garments. The truth rushed upon Paul. He had seen her sewing on the island. Realizing what It all meant, he turned back and told Dupont to take his place, wringing from him as the raft departed the promise that he would marry Ruth if they were saved. The wedding took place on the steamer which picked them up, while on the faroff island lay the body of Paul Lockwood. The sorrows of Ruth Adams are portrayed by Miss Alice Joyce in the thrilling two part Kalem drama. "Cast Up ly the Sea."

This was made clear at the admiralty today, closely following the announcement that the hoisting of the American (lag on the Lusltanh) had been in accordance with instructions. . England will use every resource permitted hy international Jftw to protect thelf shipping. WhUe the admiralty 'believes that the use of neutral flags is necessary PH certain occasions, criticism of this method of protection is already heard. The Pally Express takes the lead in objecting to the admiralty's plan. It calls the scheme a subterfuge, and Its opinion is shared . py Qtfcer leading newspapers.. Oppose Subterfuge. They indorse the statement of the admiralty accusing (he Germans of piracy because of their warning that neutral ships may suffer in the war zone fixed by the German admiralty, but intimate that England will lose prestige if Its shipping has to be protected by the flags of non-beliggerent nations.
