BUSINESS IMPROVES ON FARMING OUTLOOK Promises of general business Improvement become more and more definite each day. Thus far progress in this direction has been much too slow to satisfy the Impatient; nevertheless, there has been a steady forward movement which cannot be overlooked, and the turn for the better has really come. This is clearly expressed in the new spirit of confidence begotten by a reaction against political radicalism, by the more reasonable public attitude toward business, by the establishment of the Federal reserve banking system, by the adjustment of our finances to a war basis and by the unquestioned stimulus of big war contracts. As usual, the spirit of confidence first manifested itself in the West, where the bulk of our $10,000,000,000 of agricultural wealth and a large portion of our $2,000,000,000 mineral wealth is annually produced. This vast section of our country possesses In the soil an unfailing 60iirce of prosperity every year, and this season that prospect is greatly enhanced by the certainty of securing good prices for all food and mineral products. Western bankers, though still wisely clinging to a large degree of caution, are daily becoming more and more candid in their expressions of optimism, and advices all the way from the Pacific coast to the Alleghanies are almost uniformly hopeful.

FIVE CENT LETTUCE STAMPEDES MARKET One of the principal reasons why high prices on garden produce can be maintained was illustrated at the city market Saturday. Chardles Heckman, who "broke" with the so-called "gardner's trust" the previous week when he sold lettuce at 5 cents a pound, just 5 cents less than the other gardeners were offering this produce for, came to market Saturday with 350 pounds more lettuce which he again offered for 5 cents a pound. His competitiors stood pat on the price of 10 cents a pound. There was a stampede for the Heckman lettuce, which was promptly disposed of. Then the other gardners, without a single exception, disposed of their supplies of the same produce at 10 cents a pound. "The public will buy no matter 'what price you establish," remarked one man. Saturday was the most successful market held in this city for several months. Every stall owner was sold out before evening. LYONS CEASES Continued From Page One. Largely through his own efforts and desire to enter the ministry, he completed the course in the Zenia (O.) Divinity School and Theological seminary. In 1880 at the age of thirty-one, he was ordained as a Presbyterian minister. The first ordination services were held in southern Illinois April 7, 1880. Services were also held in St. Clair county and in Marissa where he had his first charge. He remained in Marissa five years until he was called into Indiana. His second charge was in Bloomington. He became pastor of the First Presbyterian church there April 27, 1885 and remained there until 1898. Of the three charges he had, his service in Bloomington was the longest, i While at Bloomington most of the events of his life took place and he acquired such good reputation that he j was called to become president ofj Monmouth college, through which he ! worked his way as a young man. Heads Monmouth. He was president of the college from 1898 until 1901. His wife died in that year and he decided to return to the ministry. His third ministerial charge was the United Presbyterian church in Richmond. The church was located at Eleventh and North B streets in the building now occupied by the United Brethren church. Shortly after he came here in 1901, D. G. Reid, a member of the church became enthusiastic over the work of Rev. Lyons and the prospects of the church with him as pastor and offered to build a new church. Some delay was encountered and the lot at Eleventh and North A streets was finally purchased. The Reid Memorial church was dedicated May 12, 13 and 14, 1906. It is regarded as the finest church structure in the city. A costly set of chimes was part of the equipment. While the church has not grown greatly in membership in the past few year, the attendance has been large, especially special services of various kinds in which Rev. Lyons was particularly capable. Trustee of Indiana. Rev. Lyons has been a trustee of Indiana university for the past twelve years. He has been active on the board, taking part in all the work and attending all meetings. In the past three or four years he has acted as delegate for various Presbyterian meetings. In this capacity he traveled considerably in the east and south. A characteristic of his life, aside from his work in the ministry, was his interest in all kinds of sports. He urged field and track work, acquatics and various means of exercise. He was a gymnast, a tennis player and a golf player. In his youth he made trips over the state of Illinois on a bicycle and has continued to rid a bicycle for exercise. His children are Mrs. Harriet Schumard of Nashville, Tenn., Miss Flora Lyons, s.nd Ross, Robert and Thomas Lyons, who are living in Richmond. Dr. Lyons married twice. His first wife died at Bloomington and the second in Illinois shortly before he came to Rich-

Effect of Torpedo on Hull j '

&i-?jz?; ttfsaiaBLBffl& .jj ., tr

The effect of a single torpedo on the hull of a vessel struck, is shown in the photograph, which was taken after the British steamship Belridge had been placed in dry dock for repairs. The Belridge was struck by a torpedo from a German submarine in February last, and managed to make port before sinking. She has been placed in drydock and repaired and now is ready to put to sea again. The explosive projectile literally tore her stem out and left a gaping hole measuring many feet across. The closely packed cargo prevented "the ship from being sunk as it blocked the ingress of water.

BAVIS REPEATS Continued From Page One. suit that the Light, Heat & Power company enjoyed the most profitable twelve months it has experienced in ! many years. "The Light, Heat & Power company; is now undertaking to build up a large j out-of-town business for its electric plant and I know that it will continue! to hold tightly to all the local business 1 it possibly can. With the extension of, its out-of-town business the Light, Heat & Power company will invest a ; large amount for the improvement of its plant, and that fac t alone convinces me of the importance of the city taking over this plant, for if such action is not taken and the Light. Heat & Power company continues its policy of improving its plant there is the i danger of an increase in the joint lighting and power rate schedules instead of a decrease in these rates, as ' the city desires. "You can rest assured that if the Light, Heat & Power company invests ; $75,000 or $100,000 in its electric plant,; which it has announced its intention, of doing, there will be a petition filed ; with the commission for rate in-, creases based on the allegation that existing rates do not earn the company a fair profit ofl its investment. Blocks Lower Rates. "As long as the Light, Heat & Power company remains in the local electric service field it will stand in the pathway of low rates and the prosperity of the municipal plant. If the company will dispose of its local business to the city, then the city should purchase it. If it will not, then the city should take over the entire electric plant and business of the privately owned company through condemnation proceed ings, i "As to those people who harp about the desirability of having competition j in the local electric service business i I can only state that they enter into the discussion without sufficient information concerning existing conditions. There is no competition, so far as rates are concerned, at the present time nor has there been any for over a year. The same rates are provided for each of the local plants by the state commission, and the commission sees to it that each plant adheres to these rates. The only competition there is right now is in the service." CITES QUESTION Continued From Page One. perfected in the next ten years. They are also cognizant, of the wants of the people to some extent, but they cannot know as well as the trustees what the. school patrons demand. "The conservatives seem to be in the majority among country school patrons, and they seldom voice their wants unless they are asked. The others, less conservative, seem to want the innovations, and they say so. That, of course, places the heads of Indiana schools in a peculiar position. "We have specialists in music. They come one day a week to each school. Another day is taken by a special drawing teacher, and another by a do-

mestic science teacher, who takes the girls to a special class. "If we place agriculture supervisors in the townships to take two days with the boys, the entire week is gone for specializing. Trrr.e Question Arises. "It happens that country school classes often do not have more than eight pupils in them. While the girls are in domestic science classes, what are the hoys to do? If the boys are placed two days a week in agriculture classes, it. leaves the girls without anything to do for that period of time. "Mr. Bond said the country people are against the agricultural supervisors for these reasons. He said many of them have remonstrated against th special instruction which is being given in the studies the patrons did not have in the school when they were children. This matter may come up for discussion next fall or at trustees' meetings sooner." None of the township has been able to organize classes to fill the requirements of the state board of education in its offer to send any number of supervisors here, not exceeding four. The state would pay $800 of the $1,200 salary the men receive. As each man would have two townships, it would cost each township $200 a year. NEW YORK WOMAN DENIES IDEAL HOME'

There can be no ideal homes, there can be homes of individuality and distinction, says Miss Ruby Goodnow of New York. "A home and its decorations are dependent on so many contingencies that no two homes can be alike if they are to be ideal in any way," she says. "One can not devise a model, ideal house, for first and foremost one must consider the personality of the tenant. I do not think a person can have more than one real home. If I had a beautiful home in the country I should put my prized effects there, my city home would be merely a makeshift, a place to stay." Miss Goodnow believes that a dining room is. not an essential. Instead she advocates a large living room and dining in it.

SCHOOLS SHOW LOSS

J. P. Reid, retiring deputy township trustee, is trying to discover the cause of a shortage of fifty-five pupils in the enumeration of Wayne township south of the Pennsylvania railroad. Last year the enumeration showed 536 pupils in this district. The enumeration just completed shows only 4S1. This will mean a loss of more than $200 unless the pupils can be found and enumerated. The district north of the Pennsylvania railroad has not been completed, but the enumerators are expected to return a report this week.

BY HERBERT TEMPLE. LONDON, May 3. Continued German attacks against American ships, the latest of which was the torpedoing of the oil ship Gulflight off Scilly islands on Saturday, has aroused In official circles a persistent belief that the United States government will demand of Germany more complete satisfaction than mere monetary reparation. British newspapers united in declaring that President Wilson should send a strong note of protest to Germany. Dispatches from Crow sound. In

which the disabled Gulflight was towed, quote member of the crew as saying that the United States flag was flying when the attack was made. Although persons on the Gulflight lost their lives, including Captain Gunter, none was killed by the German fire. Captain Gunter died of heart disease due to shock, and Wireless Operator C. B. Short and a seaman were drowned by jumping into the sea. Thirty-three members of the Gulflight's crew of thirty-six were saved by British patrol ships. The Gulflight, which carried a cargo of oil consigned to Rouen. France, was owned by the Gulf Refining company of Pittsburg. She sailed from Port Arthur, Tex., April 10. City Statistics.
