nines CONSIDER NEED OF NEWDRIDGE Board Members Take Up Necessity - of New Structure Across Whitewater at Main Street.

REPAIRS REQUIRED New Bridge Considered Necessary Across Chasm in Few Years Even If Repairs Are Made Now. The advisability of constructing an entirely new bridge to take the place of the present structure at Main street over the Whitewater river, will be discussed by the: county commissioners Tuesday morning. Although the present bridge has not been condemned by the engineers who- have examined It, they have told the commissioners and city officials that it is in a bad condition, and that something has to be done immediately. According to attorneys who have been consulted, the city would probably be required to repair the bridge if it is found that it can be repaired economically. If this can not be done the county will have to build, a new one. An inspection will be made by the commissioners tomorrow morning. Favor New Bridge. Several member of the county council have expressed themselves In favor of building a new bridge, as they believe it would not be an economic saving to repair the old one, which is rapidly being torn to pieces by the vibration of the heavy interurban cars, as well as being decomposed by electrolysis. They say that repairs on the Iron structure, as long as street cars run over the bridge, would at best be only temporary, and that within a few year a new structure would have to be built. If a new bridge is built, the commissioners favor a concrete structure. County Commissioner Anderson said that in his opinion there is no need ot having such a long span across the river valley. He favors building a concrete retaining wall, much on the order of the Pennsylvania railroad bridge, and filling this with refuse material and gravel. This could be used as the abutments on both sides, making it only necessary to have a span extending directly over the river. He said that if the present bridge can be repaired for a few thousand dollars, he is in favor of this in preference to the construction of an entirely new structure. COMSTOCK DISMISSES SNOW TEST CASE AGAINST INTERURBAN It was a cool procedure in circuit court this morning when scenes of snow piled six and eight feet high in the streets of Richmond, were recalled to the mind of Judge Cornstock. The trouble between the T. H. I. & E. traction company and the city of Richmond regarding the shovelling of snow off of Main street last winter melted this morning when the case brought by the traction company against the city was dismissed at the cost of the city. Last winter the city passed an ordinance prohibiting the traction company from shovelling snow off the tracks onto the streets. The traction company raised a protest stating that cars could not be run unless this was done. Order Carried Out. The police department complying with the order of council, immediately set in ot arrest about twenty-five employes of the street ' car company who were clearing the tracks for street car traffic. An order was sustained by Judge Fox reltraining the city from carrying- out the provisions of the ordinance. Several weeks later a demurrer filed by the cjty attorney was not sustained and the case has never been disposed of. " This morning the case was dismissed at the cost of the city after it was shown that the city admitted Its case weak by repealing the ordinance. SEEKS SEPARATION Application was filed in circuit court this morning by the attorneys for Esther Staley asking the court to prosecute the defendant, Homer Staley. as a poor person. "Has the defendant been summoned," asked Judge Comstock. "Oh, yes," said Attorney Medsker, "the sheriff bad no trouble finding him. He is in the penitentiary." The plaintiff is asking for a divorce from her husband. She alleges that he has abandoned her. CALL PETIT JURY The petit jury has been called to sit tomorrow in the case of Greenberry Bryant against the estate of Mary E. Bryant. The suit is on a claim for $412. SO alleged to be due the plaintiff. The jury is composed of James Martin. Benjamin Thomas, Edward Beeson, Dan Lashley, Carl Bertsch, Moses Myers. Willis Rich, George H. Eggemeyer. Edward Deitemeyer and Harry Critchfield. MILTON SCHOOLMATES HOLD ANNUAL REUNION THURSDAY MILTON, Ind., Aug. 9.

$9,870 IS PAID BY COUNTY FOR CHILDREN'S AID Social Service Bureau Shows How White's Institute Draws $163 for Each of 60 Children. SAVING IS POSSIBLE $4,000 Would Be Saved If Dependents Were Placed in Homes Instead of Big Institution. Wanted Good homes for care and adoption of homeless children. Phone 2050, Social Service Bureau, Richmond, Ind. , It was learned today, through an Investigation of the records of the Home for the Friendless and the records of the circuit court, under whose jurisdiction children are sent to White's institute, that Wayne county is supporting an enormous number of children each year. Wayne county's quota of children in Whites' institute exceeds that of any other county in the state in comparison with the population of the counties from which the children are sent Efforts will be made Immediately by the social service bureau to locate homes for a large number of these children, many of whom are deserving of the advantages of private homes. An' investigation has been made by a special committee appointed by the county commissioners and a partial report was made to the commissioners Saturday. Supports 60 Children. At the prestnt time, Wayne county is supporting in White's institute an average of about sixty children a year. In addition to this from ten to fifteen children have been placed at the Home of the Friendless through county support. In many of these cases, no effort has been made to find homes for the children, it is learned today. Wayne county pays $163 a year to maintain each child at White's institute. The investigation shows that If the children were placed in homes in stead of being thrown on the support of the county, at least $4,000 would be saved to this county annually in supT:nrt Of th rienenriont rhlMran A complSte report of the investigat ing committee will be published soon and recommendations will undoubtedly be made regarding the care of these children.

A Pipe That Led to Love A Novelette of a Brier Crushed by a Little Heel and the Results Thereof

Orer my, study mantelpieoe hangs my pipe-rack. It has twelre compart ments, and in each compartment rests a pipe. On the extreme right rests a small and dirty brier. ' And this Is the post of honor. It is nearest . the mantel piece and the fire. I first saw that pipe In the narrow window of a back street. It was its artless simplicity that touched me, and I bought it for a song. From the first we suited each other. It never seemed to go out unexpectedly. It was as dry as a bone. Of the many thoughtless acts my elder brother has been guilty of toward me was. with scarcely a warning, to make me an uncle. And he to whom I stood in this relation was not one I could honestly regard with esteem. He had chosen for his walk in life the dull, unwinding path of an analytical chemist. In what be invariably referred to as "my profession," I believe he was not without promise. But all his jaundiced eye could see was nicotine, arsenic and a whole series of things with Impossible names. Similarly, when he could not Indulge in boiled milk, soda water was his one resort. I had come in from an afternoon stroll, and, going to the accustomed place on the mantelpiece, discovered my pipe gone. My eye fell on a note on the table. "My dear uncle," it ran. "I am sorry you are not in. I am about to experiment extensively with the products of tobacco combustion. As I know of no one who would keep & pipe more suited to. my purpose than yourself, I thought I would run in and see if you would give me one of your old ones. "During your absence, I have taken the liberty of selecting one of the pipes I feel sure you can't want. It is only a small wooden one, and it is exceedingly dirty and over-smoked. Though I am sure It can be of no use to you. It is just the thing for my experiment." I tore madly out again and ran feverishly for the nearest hansom. I gave the driver . the address of my

nephew's "laboratory," and. - in an eternity of twenty minutes, we were there. I rushed up the stairs, and flung myself madly at a door bearing; my nephew's nameplate. The place was locked. No matter, I would make a noise; I would break something;. I rattled the door savagely. Presently a female voice behind me said. "He's out!" I turned round to face a short fat woman of about fifty evidently the caretaker. "Give me the key!" I said. "No!" "Woman," I cried frantically. "It's a matter of life and death. I'm his uncle his father's brother what you will. Give me that key!" She produced It hesitatingly. I snatched it out of her reluctant hand, and made entry. There on the laboratory bench was my little pipe. "Is that all you wanted?" asked the caretaker indignantly. "Yes," I returned complacently, "that is all." On an afternoon which is yet fresh in my memory I was strolling leisure ly along a street with my pipe in m mouth, when I fell a victim to the fascination of a shop window. Displayed therein with cunning art were a large number of delicately attractive bats, toques and the like creations. And in this particular instance there was one particular hat from which I could not withhold the homage of my eyes. It Is true that that hat was not In the window. No! it was outside. But at the window-back was a large mirror, and the bat being turned in that direction, I was able to see it reflected in the glass as I looked at the other hats. Its wearer suddenly turned in my direction as I was looking at the back of the hat, and began to walk away from the shop window. I reddened quickly. I became confused. It was something in the wearer's eyes. Was it that I had seen them before? But I could not collect my thoughts. I got strangely nervous. Worst of all, for one never-to-be-forgotten moment, I felt meanly ashamed of my pipe. My hands rose clumsily to abstract it. It fell with a clat

ter'oa the stone, and slid out tnto'tsa middle of the pavement Just In boat of her feet I bent down quickly to save it. But I was too late. I heard m sickening scrunch, and when I picked op my 'pipe there waa a great yawning chasm all along; the underside of the stem. Only a dainty little heel had stepped upon it, hut the harm was done. - "I am so sorry." she said sympathetically; "can't you get it mended?" v I shook my head. "No!" I said, "it la too badly broken for that." The other morning somebody came into my study. And that is a thins I have expressly forbidden. I swung round in my chair. "You' know." I said, "that I make It a rule "Oh. rules are confirmed - In the breaking.". She tripped over to the fire. I went on frigidly with my work. Presently I heard an exclamation: "That's the old pipe I stepped on that day. lent it? You remember?" I put away my work for the morning. 1, too, went over to the fire. "Yes," I said, "that's the one." Gas was used to replace candles and lamps at a factory, in Manchester in 1S05, two years before the Ulumlnant was introduced Into London.
