SANITARY PENS CHECK SPREAD OF HOG PLAGUE Purdue" Cholera " Train Instructs Farmers on Ways . to Prevent Heavy Losses From Cholera. The hog cholera special train sent out by Purdue University arrived In Richmond at noon today and C. G. Starr and Dr. L. C. Kingln, who have charge lectured to a large number of farmers. . This morning the train -was at Centerville where nearly one hundred farmers visited It. Tonight it leaves for , Greensfork where it will remain all day tomorrow. Hog cholera is prevalent In Indiana and the total yearly loss In the state Is placed at $3,000,000. Statistics show that during the last nineteen years 68,800,409 hogc were produced in the state and of this number 6,754,771 died of cholera. Wayne county's death rate was 12.82 last year. . . r Purdue instructs Farmer. It is the purpose of Purdue to Instruct the farmer in the conservation of ewine and show him the best methods to get results and the way in which the spread of the disease may be .averted. ". The most important step In this direction is cleanliness and sanitation, vaccination when the animals are young being essential. It is not neceBsary to vaccinate each year as some think, but only once, except when the disease is in the neighborhood. Then it is advised.

The spread of the disease may be

, checked by the farmers. The United States Department of Agriculture has

compiled data collected from sixteen counties in fifteen states showing the methods of spreading it. which if

avoided will check it. It follows: Exchanging labor and visiting in

fected premises, 645 herds, 23.10 per

cent.

Exposure to sick hogs on adjoining

farm, 235 herds, 8.42 per cent. Harbored infection, 463 herds, 16.59 per cent. Dogs, 267 herds, 9.57 per cent. Infected cars and public highways, 33 herds, 1.18 per cent. Purchase of new stock, 95 herds, 3.40 per cent. Contaminated streams, 45 herds; 1.61 per cent. Birds, 4S2 herds, 17.27 per cent. indefinite, 526 herds, 18.86 per cent. Farmers all over the state are being urged to form clubs and devise an organized system to rid the country of the scourge and much success is resulting from this method.

BRIDGE COrMfflflTlOa RECALLS MUCH DATA ABOUT FAMOUS SPAR

The Main street bridge,' which has been ' condemned for heavy traffic" by the city officials and the county bridge engineer, has been in use only eighteen years and cost the county , $61,000. At the time of its construction, severe criticism was raised relative to the plan of building it on an Incline, but according to the county bridge engineer, this has had little effect in causing the present unsafe condition. The following are some facts relative' to the bridge: Length, 635 feet. Width, 42 feet. , Width of roadway, 30 feet. Width of sidewalks, 6 feet. Bridge is 15 feet, 3 inches higher at west end than at east end. Contract was let by board of commissioners on July 7, 1896. The county commissioners were Caleb Harbey, Solomon Woody and James Scott. Alonzo Marshall was county auditor. Total cost, $61,000. Original contract price, $59,694. Additional expense of construction, $1,306. Built by the Massellon Bridge company, Massellon, Ohio. There were twelve bids received and twenty-two plans presented. The bridge was paid for by appropriations of $15,000 being made by the commissioners in 1899, 1900 and 1901, after $16,000 had been appropriated in 1898.

The city of Richmond entered into agreement with the county board of commissioners to pay the cost of straightening Main street and Improving the approaches to the bridge. The city also paid , for placing of asphalt paving blocks on the bridge instead of cedar blocks. These were later replaced by the city with the present stone blocks. Frank C. Doran, the designer and builder of the Doran bridge at North D street, was appointed by the commissioners as consulting engineer but his absence from the city necessitated his resignation from this work. An engineer from Cincinnati made the final inspection of the birdge and placed the stamp of approval on it. Ellis N. Gray, deceased, formerly of this city, was a member of the Massellon Bridge company and had charge of the negotiations with the county commissioners. The bridge was originally designed for a load of 100 lbs. per square foot. The contract places "no restriction upon methods to produce this result but an actual test shall be made of a section of the floor proposed and it shall stand four times the load prescribed." The contract also required a bridge that can stand a moving load of 180 lbs. per lineal foot. At the time the bridge was built the interurbans were light but it is estimated by engineers now that the load of heavy cars is too great for the structure.

An Oklahoma couple have received permission to mortgage their farm to pay expenses of their divorce suit. The husband says his wife has nagged him since 1878 and he's tired of it.

NO DOUBT THAT RESINOL DOES HEAL SICK SKIN When you know physicians have prescribed Resinol for 20 years in the treatment of eczema and other itching, burning, unsightly skin eruptions, and have written thousands of reports saying: "It is my regular prescription for itching," "Resinol has produced brilliant results," "The result it gave was marvelous In one of the worst cases of eczema," etc., doesn't it make you feel that "this is the treatment. I can rely on for MY skin trouble?" The moment Resinol Ointment touches itching skins, the itching stops and healing begins.

Talks With Lovers Kitty Carothers Gives Advice to Young Persons and Answers Inquiries About Affairs of Heart.

BY KITTY CAROTHERS. Now comes a young married man With a very serious problem one which may either make of wreck his home. He asks whose side he shall take in the event of a difference between his wife and his mother. In the first place there should be no differences in which be should be asked to take sides. In the second case, if a quarrel develops he should try to bring about an amicable understanding without taking sides. A good wife should try to feel like a daughter .to the mother of the. man she loves. She should have so much love for her mother-in-law that there could be no jealousy and ho dispute. The mother should love the woman who has cast her lot with her son in a jioble, unselfish way. .

Dear Miss Carothers For two years I have been going with a young man who wants to marry me. I admire

him very much, but two months ago I met another young man equally as

nice as the one I have been going

with. Both men are liked by my fam

ily. I must give up one orthe other. What would you advise me to do? UNCERTAIN. Real love does not doubt its object. Unless your loyalty to the first man is great enough to overcome whatever fascination or charm the newer love has for you, you do not care for him enough to marry him. And on the other hand, unless you feel sure that your feeling for the second man is great enough to wipe out your tender

memories and affection for the old love

he is not the man for you either. Look into your own heart ana"be honest with yourself and the man you love if you .truly love either.

STATE AUTO CLUB GETS GOOD START INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 11. Indiana is to have an active, Tirile, militant automobile organization. With the formation Of the Hooaier State Automobile association, and the filing of articles of incorporation, another movement to put Indiana In Uie forefront of automobile states was launched. . - ; The purposes of the organization are manifold, but are, in a word, to further the Interests of automoblllsts and the general public in relation to the automobile; to carry on a campaign for a state highway system, which will be of benefit to everybody. The plan of organization is simple. The scheme is built on the idea of strong local organization, with the county perhaps as the unit, each affiliated with the state organization. Field secretaries of the new organization are to be sent into the various counties to carry on the work of organization.

GUEST HOUSE PROJECT IS REFERRED TO WHITEWATER MONTHLY MEETING

The proposal to use" the funds secured from the sale of the property at the north half the ground owned by the North A Street Friends' MeetT ing house for the construction of a Guest house, will be left entirely in the hands of the Whitewater Monthly Meeting. This was decided by the committee appointed by the Yearly Meeting yesterday to investigate the proposition. Ralph Howell is chairman of the committee. The report shows that this matter ought to be left to the Friends of the Whitewater Monthly meeting, since they' own the property and would undoubtedly have charge of the boarding house if erected. The Whitewater Monthly meeting has already realized $7,500 from the

sale of the property on North Eleventh street and there are three lots on Twelfth street that are expected to bring about the same amount. Devotional meetings were held last evening and this morning and this afternoon a business meeting to hear and discuss the report of the committee on queries and answers will be held. No successor has been appointed in place of Miss Edith Winder as field secretary. The report of the advancement committee will be read this evening and her successor will be appointed at that time.

NUMBER OF PERSONS AT FRIENDLESS HOME DECREASES SUDDENLY

During the three months ending July 1, 1915, there had been forty-seven children taken care of at the Home for the Friendless. During the last year there has been an average of eighteen children at the home every day. .At the present there are only seven children at the home, none of whom is being supported by the county. An investigation was recently conducted by a special committee of the county commissioners, and although no definite information has been given by the committee, it is learned that a change in the method now being employed to place children in care of the home was suggested. It is also understood the committee in its in

vestigations has found thaiie present

method being used to support chil

dren in the home through county

funds is illegal. "I have never had the new law ex

plained to me," said Mrs. Aurelia Thomas, matron of the Home for the Friendless, this morning. "I merely receive the children that are placed

in my care."

The sudden decrease in the number

of children at the home has become the subject of persons who have kept in touch with the situation. Within the last week efforts have been made to place several of the children in homes and also several of the children who are j?eing cared for at county expenses have been placed with relatives.

WOMAN'S LOVE HELPS SLEUTH ARREST LOVER

If It had not been for the keen desire of James John's sweetheart to see him again he probably would not be in custody in Elwood facing a possible chirge of stealing a ten-ton automobile passenger hack belonging to How. ell Rich, the unshaved proprietor of several Richmond barber shops. Louis Traylor, proprietor of a small restaurant on North Ninth street, was the man responsible for the apprehension of Johns and the recovery of the hack, which is valued at $2,500. Traylor was at one time a detective and when Rich learned this he promptly inducer! Traylor to don his false whiskers and gumshoes once more and take to the trail ' of the fugitive hack pilferer. A photograph of Johns which Travlor secured . from Johns' sweetheart was th principal agency leading to his apprehension at Elwood yesterday. Johns Borrovys Truck. Three weeks ago Johns went to Rich with the suggestion that he take the auto hack, which Rich had Just purchased, and make the county fair circuit in Northern Indiana, Rich to receive a substantial commission from the money Johns took in as fares from passengers. Rich agreed to this arrangement, providing Johns reported to him by telephone at the close of each day the amount of business transacted. Johns promised to do this but aft:r he took the hack Rich nevvir beard from him again until his arrest at Flwood yesterday. "I had never seen Johns and the only way I could find him would be to secure bis photograph," Traylor said today. "I got his girl to give me his photo when I told her I wanted to locate him so I could offer him a better job than he had She wanted him to get back to Richmond so she could be with him more and loaned me tho photo. I got trace of him at Montpelier. He had a couple of rough-necks

with him there and I guess they must hae been acting as conductors of the hack, because they had a lot of money

and Johns was about broke. He owed & garage bill and the garage man was holding the machine until a settlement was made, but he finally permitted Johns to take out a paity of people on a promise of settling the bill tho

next day. The garage man never saw Johns again. I next went to Elwood and I met Johns on the street I had the police take charge of him until Rich decided what action he wanted to take." It is understood that Rich sent an agent to Elwood today with instructions to get n satisfactory settlement out of Johns or to file an affidavit agelnsr him.

Captured Austrian Forces

Russians to Surrender

With General and Cannon to Attacking Teutons. VIENNA, Aug. 11. An officer and a corporal of the Landwehr Ulan regt ment of Hohenauth are highly praised for one of the bravest deeds ot the war, in an official report just published. Both have been decorated with the military cross of the first class. The two heroes. Lieutenant V. Pindter and Corporal Klose, were captured by cossacks during the pursuit 6f the fleeing Russian army in eastern Galicia. Near Mzana the Russian brigade which, carried them along with other prisoners, was attacked by German and Austrian batteries and machine gun detachments. . The Russians were thrown into a

panic by the heavy fire, and paid no attention to their prisoners. Lieutenant V. Pindter and the corporal, making use of "the excitement, -quickly armed five of the other captured Austrians, soldiers of the Piesek Landwehr infantry regiment, with Russian guns. Then the daring officer ordered the Russian commander to surrender. The Russians were so completely taken by surprise that many of them threw up their hands, while the others fled.

The lieutenant and his little band

captured the general commanding the Russian brigade, a colonel, ten other officers and 382 men, together with fifteen heavy guns, several machine guns and a great number of ammunition wagons and horses. In the meantime one of the Austrian machine gun detachments had reached the scene of this unique "coup the main" and the Russians were quickly transported be

hind the Austrian front.

WATERS OF LAKE

According to Frank Taube, local agent for the Pullman automobile. Germany's under-sea blockade Is but a mere side show compared with the submarine exploits ot a five passenger Pullman Junior touring car, which after crashing through the. railing and a two and a half inch water, pipe on the Stone avenue bridge, plunged into deep waters of the Lake Union for a cruise of four days. The peppery little car was beta? driven at a terrific rate of speed, and the driver, becoming excited, headed it for the railing. The car had gained such momentum that it ripped straight through the timbers, broke a two and fft Half UAk n!nA ..J . -1 M . V. 1SV

feet through the air. and then decided to explore the bottom of the lake. For four days search for the car was made end finally it was located about SO feet from where it left the bridge. A diver was engaged and he went down into the lake and fastened ropes to the machine, the undertaking being witnessed by a great crowd. It was raised to the deck of a scow without great difficulty. Considering the terrific impact with the railing and water ma'n. and the fact that It had remr.ined at the hotto mof the lake for four days,, the amount of damages done to the Pullman . Junior was surprisingly slight. The wind shield was broken into bits, the top was ruined and the mud guards were bent. Immediately after it was brought to the surface, the water was drained from the engine and gasoline tank, a new storage battery substituted for'tho one that was ruined, and the gasoline tank was re-filled. The engine was cranked, and after a vigorous whir r r it started. Mechancally. the car ap-
