OLNEY MAY OUTLINE PLAN TO GIVE CITY CONTROL OVER SHOP
Vice President Olney of the United Gas & Electric corporation, which owns the Richmond Light, Heat & Power company, and probably another official of the big New York concern, will attend a meeting of the public service committee and directors of the Richmond Commercial club Saturday night for the purpose of discussing the plan advanced by the city government for the purchase of the electric plant of the Light, Heat and Power company. Some time ago the members of the public service committee of the Commercial club, of which George Seidel is chairman, discussed the project with Mayor Robbins, President Bavis of the board of public works, and Kupt. Kleinknecht of the municipal plant. The committee at that time decided not to submit a report to the club until it had an opportunity of discussing the matter with representatives of the Light. Heat & Power company. It is quite probable that at the meeting Saturday night Mr. Olney will announce the willingness of the United Gas & Electric company to dispose of its local electric plant to the city and will outline a purchase plan which would be agreeable to the company.
PETITE DIVER LEAPS INTO SHALLOW TANK
.More than a thousand people were present at the carnival grounds last night to witness Miss Mollie Grimsby dive from the top of an eighty-five foot ladder into a tank of water. The crowd applauded when Miss Grimsby emerged from the tank after her daring performance. The tank has a depth of five and a half feet. Each night at ten o'clock this week during the stay of the carnival, Miss Grim.sby will make the dive from the ladder. All the shows and concessions were in progress last night. Another large crowd is expected at the grounds this evening.
ADDS MUD-HEN TO ZOO AT PARK
A rare species of mud hen has been placed in Glen Miller park in care of Charles Ford, park superintendent, by Rudolph Rock. The bird is peculiar-looking and those who first saw it were mystified as to what kind it was. It is half the size of a duck and is wholly black with the exception of its feet and the tips of its wings, which are white.
SOCIETY BUD DRIVES WAR AMBULANCE
Miss Anna R. Tinker, society horsewoman, suffragist and popular member of the younger social set in New York, will sail for France to resume the Red Cross work suddenly terminated last November by the death of her father, Henry C. Tinker, the banker. Miss Tinker, who will be accompanied by a woman physician and two nurses, inherited $1,000,000 of the $3,000,000 estate left by her father. "I shall drive an ambulance if I am needed for this work," she said. "I don't know just what sort of work I will do. I drove a car last fall in Belgium, carrying wounded to the hospitals and I experienced the sensation of bursting shells all about us. I can assure you it is not half as exciting as to read about it at home."
TEACHERS INVITED TO FREE COURSES
Superintendent Giles has been invited to place before the teachers of night school in Richmond, a suggestion that they attend a special, free course of training for vocational schools to be held in Indianapolis from July 5 to July 16, under the auspices of the Indiana university, department of Industrial education. The subject matter of the courses include: Methods of principles of teaching trade processes and related work, aims in vocational school and departments, organization of trade courses, departments and schools, system of records, etc. Robert J. Leonard, Room 27, State House, Indianapolis, has charge. Only a few teachers can be accommodated.
PENAL FARM GROWS AS PRISONERS COME
The rapidly filling state penal farm will require the erection of another dormitory immediately, George Seidel said today. Mr. Seidel will attend the monthly meeting of trustees at the farm tomorrow. "We expect fo plan for the immediate erection of a new dormitory and possibly plans for more buildings," Mr. Seidell said. The trustees of the farm are pleased with the popularity it has gained with judges over the state. The prisoners have now settled down to a routine life of farming, although some are engaged in other branches of work. .Many trusties from the Indiana state penitentiary are stationed there.
Health Insurance For the Approaching Warm Weather Cheaply Obtained by Using Simpson's Vegetable Compound This old and reliable alterative .blood purifier, acts upon the secretions, stimulating the inner organs to activity, thus assisting nature to cleanse the system of its (cold weather) accumulation of impurities. For forty years Simpson's Vegetable Compound has been the Standard remedy for blood trouble, even in its worst forms, therefore much less is required of it, as a "Spring cleanser" than of any other with-all a fine tonic and body builder. One trial will easily convince you of its superior merit. Sold by druggists everywhere. Be sure to get the genuine. Dr. A. B. Simpson Co., Richmond, ,lnd. Adv.
CARS STAND READY FOR QUICK SERVICE One of the hardest tests to which a motorcycle is put is in the United States reclamation service, where the machines must stand ready on a moment's notice to make flying trips over country and desert, roads or along the banks of newly constructed canals. But the seventeen machines now employed by the government in the Salt River Irrigation Project in Arizona have proven their ability to stand up under this service. When an emergency call comes in that a canal bank has broken it is only a ninstant until one or more cyclists are on their way to lend a hand in stopping the leak. The two-wheeler has also made it possible for the men working on the project to spend their nights at their stations, going to and from tehir work each day on motorcycles.
IDAHO DAIRYMAN NOW MILLIONAIRE
SPOKANE. Wash., May 12. August Paulsen, once a small dairyman in the Coeur d'Alene mining district of Northern Idaho, last year received an income of more than half a million dollars from a Coeur d'Alene mine in which he has a little more than a quarter interest. For several years Mr. Paulsen has been deriving enormous profits from the famous Hercules mine.

STUDENTS RECEIVE WORK IN OFFICES
Members of the commercial department of the High school are getting practical experience in their work of a half day each week in various business houses of Richmond. These students after serving several hours each week as apprentices return to the high school where the conditions of the respective offices in which they worked are discussed and suggestions are made for betterment of conditions. Principal Pickell says that the experience lays the foundation for a sat-, isfactory application for summer work by the students.
RAIN FALLS FOR 7 SUCCESSIVE DAYS
Temperatures were almost uniformly low during the first of last week, although a slight raise was noted by the co-operative weather observer the last of the week. Rain fell every day amounting to .85 inches. The sun was exceedingly stingy of his presence being in hiding behind clouds either all or the great part of the seven days. The record of temperatures follows: Sunday 72 39 Monday 79 51 Tuesday 57 42 Wednesday 60 35 Thursday 59 41 Friday 70 47 Saturday 70 44 SOCIAL PROBLEMS TO BE BEFORE CHARITY WORKERS BALTIMORE, May 12.-The largest charity convention in the history of the United States is that which opened here this morning. For eight days the big convention will take up in succession the problems that are today faced by charity and social workers. More communities, organizations and private charity work is represented this year than ever before, and the speakers secured will cover the phases of charity work far better, it is expected, than ever before. Russia lacks but 10 degrees of reaching half-way around the globe.
