Charters, who in 1909, was employed ' by the city as a tax ferret.. Council decided that It was cheaper to accept Charter's settlement offer than to litigate.

John Healy, editor of the Irish Times, who was in this city throughout the fighting, "and published his paper, during the stormy days, give the following description of the uprising: "There must be no mistake about the uprising. It was brutal, bloody, savage' business. It was marked by many, cases of shocking and callous cruelty. Innocent civilians were butchered in cold blood. ' Unarmed policemen and soldiers -.were shot down. As result of promiscuous looting and Incendiarism one of- the finest public buildings In Ireland and the most Important commercial center of Dublin are in ashes. The full toll of death will never be known. It is no exaggeration to say that scores of harmless citizens perished. Many British soldiers fell in the execution of one of the most difficult and dangerous duties ever required of military men. "The nation must see that, In return for the heavy cost, it receives at least a sure guarantee of righteous punishment for the offenders and a powerful ; government for Ireland in the future." . : monstrators. Talks for and against the improvement were made. Councilman Steinbrink advised the paving of the . first block on South Tenth street, even if the city's share of the cost had to be taken from the appropriation for crushed stone. Councilman Williams told of tys Inspection of tarvia streets in Cincinnati last week, and urged that such streets be provided in the residential , districts of .Richmond. .

GUARDS SHOOT STRIKERS AT PITTSBURG

PITTSBURG, May 2. From three, to twenty are dead In the first outbreak of Pittsburgh industrial war. Shortly before 3 o'clock" this afternoon company guards fired on a mob of strikers scaling the fence protecting the plant of the Edgar Thompson Steel company in Thirteenth street, Braddock. Many men dropped from the .fence. Y Just how many were killed or wounded is' not known for the strikers carried most of their dead and injured with them when they retreated after a battle with the guards that lasted, fully fifteen minutes. During the fight fully 1,000 shots were ex-l changed. Sheriff Richards has sent in a call for the state militia and it probably LONTZ MAY START WITH NEW GOODS IN RUMELY PLANT , An entirely, new line of goods, other than -the present product of the F. .& N. Lawnmower company, will probably be placed in the new addition purchased, from the M. Rumely company by the lawnmower company. John Lontz, president of the company, said today that he had no definite plans to announce but : very few changes will be made in the building. He expects to operate a factory there within two or three. months, he said. . The Reliance company, which purchased the, Rumely foundry, has begun the installation of air compressers and will -begin operations within the next two weeks. The present foundry at Sixteenth and the railroad will be operated in connection with the new foundry until the latter is completely equipped for the work, according to Fred Heitbrink, vice-president of the company.

A catalogue which Mr. Baxter's factory puts out drew special comment from Mr. Henley who said that it was clever and that the goods displayed looked good. H. L. Ashley had a long conversation -with Mr. Baxter last night. Mr. Ashley said today that he was much impressed with the business like appearance and talk of the factory man and that he. had gathered from the talk that Mr. Bxter would not need much inducement to move his factory here. The main thing that seemed to puzzle Mr. Baxter seemed to be a suitable location. MISS MAHIN TAKES UP NURSE'S DUTIES Miss Lillian Mahin, newly appointed visiting health nurse, arrived today and assumed her duties in the office or tne social service., bureau. " No definite plan of work has yet been outlined by the nurse and she intends to spend several days acquainting herself with the city'and the conditions here.

SCHOOL PAPER TELLS TROUBLE OF DUAL STAFF Editorially speaking the Cynosure, the Richmond high school publication, when it appears May 5, will have the following to say relative to the double staff Bystem used in publishing the school sheet this year: Sure! we agree with you. The jCynosure has been "rotten" this .year but we don't agree with you concerning the cause for this so called "rottenness." There are two reasons why , this, paper hasn't lived up to its name this year. They ,V are first, because this two staff proposition is a failure, and second because the printery has been overloaded with other work and The Synosure was neglected and put on the shelf. Paper is Delayed. But even if we had system about the work and had our staffs thoroughly organized, the paper could not come out regularly. When we do get all.the I copy in on time, a job of work which has to be done immediately comes into the print shop and The Cynosure comes out about two months late. ' But listen. Don't blame the heads of the staffs, or Mr. Towle for this irregular publication, but lay it on many unforeseen difficulties. . This two-staff idea is now recogniz-' ed as a failure, not because competent students cannot be secured, hut because there isn't enough work to keep so many people busy. Just about the time one staff gets accustomed to putting out a paper, its work is done and there is nothing to do for about a month and when the time for another issue comes they have forgotten air they knew. There is no chance to get' any organization or system and consequently the paper cannot be as good as it might be." ZWISSLER SERVES AS LOCAL DELEGATE John Zwissler and L. P. McTigue will represent the local council of Knights of Columbus at the state convention in Lafayette next Tuesday. The preliminaries of the convention will start Sunday, but the Richmond representatives will likely not .go until Tuesday, when the convention starts.
