The Gas Rate Decision Although the public utility commission did not grant the gas company the rates it petitioned for, the company nevertheless received such a substantial increase in its rates, that it can feel well satisfied with the result. As indicated in news stories and editorial comment,, the gas company received every benefit possible in the decision and the people nothing. The Indianapolis News editorially takes the same view of the ruling. Yesterday it had the following to say: There is much that is disquieting to patrons of public utilities in the decision just announced by the public service commission in the case of the Richmond Light, Heat and Power Company. The gross rate that is now possible for the company to charge for each thousand feet of natural gas is 80 cents, which amounts to a 100 per cent, increase pver the previous schedule. This new rate is based on a valuation that includes equipment, now inactive, erected for the distribution of artificial gas. In other words, although the city of Richmond enjoys natural gas service, it is denied the economy that such service offers other places, and is required, on order of the public service commission, to pay, a rate, that takes into account money alleged to have been invested by the company in artificial gas plant equipment. "The producing plant of the petitioner," says the commission, "may be called into active service at any time. We have determined to regard it as a part of the property upon which the company is entitled to a fair return." There is nothing in the decision to show.that the public service commission believed the people of Richmond to be entitled to an economical rate, due to the presence of natural gas. Although natural gas, according to a statement brought out in cross-examination at the hearing,, costs the Richmond Light, Heat "and Tower " company 23 cents a thousand feet, delivered in Richmond from the West Virginia fields, -where the company operates, it is to be resold to the consumers at 80 cents gross, or 70 cents net, largely because the company owns property that may become "useful" at some obscure time when the supply )f natural gas is exhausted. By this reasoning,

the company obtains recognition for all privileges and liabilities, while the right is denied thejseople to participate fully in the advantages of the cheap service that at other points is assured by natural gas. The decision appears to-be one wholly in favor of the corporation. The city, through its attorney, .William A. Bond, has lost its case. Its contentions have been disregarded and a rate established which operates simply to increase the cost of living to the small consumer of fuel. . " . There is something in the Richmond affair which reminds the public of the commission's conduct in the Lafayette controversy. In the latter case,' it will be remembered, the corporation interests were successful from the beginning. No chances 'were taken whereby the corporation could lose and a decision was made that was not only unjust to Lafayette but obnoxious to the state as a whole. In the Richmond case it is not in evidence that the city impressed the commission with the reliability of its plea On the contrary, the company experienced little difficulty. In view of the decision, the; explanation of the commission that "the burden is on the petitioner to establish that the proposed increase is just and reasonable," is farcical. The fact remains that the citizens of Richmond have been ignored and that they must pay accordingly. Parking Restrictions Farmers and visitors to Richmond will feel at home here now, for the new parking restrictions are so elastic that no stranger will be molested if he parks his automobile on Main street while he shops or eats a meal in a restaurant. The signs will request parking on the side streets but will not demand that farmers stay off the main thoroughfare. Every visitor of Richmond will feel inclined to respect the wishes of the merchants, and will feel at home if he cares to halt his machine on Main street to chat with a neighbor or a friend he sees. The ordinance is, intended to keep Richmond automobilists from letting their machines stand in front of business houses for whole hours. The original intention of the ordinance was directed against this nuisance. The modifications will satisfy everyone.

Opening of Earlham

Earlham college welcomed a large number of

students yesterday and today... The college holds the distinction of being one of the best colleges in the Middle West, enabling its graduates to enter the big universities of the east without the restrictions that are thrown around the graduates of many colleges. ' Earlham ranks among the very best institutions in the state. The young men and women who entered Earlham for scholastic training need "' not' worry about the high standard of the faculty nor. the high class instruction they will received The college may well point to the attainments of its alumni as proof that the institution imparts instruction that prepares its students to forge ahead in their callings.

Once upon a time a king who was

very ill and knew he could not get

well called to him his two daughters

As there was no son, he was anxious that one should marry and thus provide a king to head the country's army, so he told the two Princesses that he had invited to the court a young Prince from a neighboring land. This Prince, whose name was Ivan, was to arrive that night and would select the one he wished for a bride. Now. the oldest sister, Grace, was a handsome girl, but her proud nature showed in her sneering face. She cared only for honors and fine clothlng. So 6he determined to win the Prince and reign as the Queen. The young sister, Sybil, was a slender girl who cared nothing about splendor and spent her time in helping the poor and visiting the sick. That evening when the girls were to dress Grace put on a velvet gown embroidered in gold, but Sybil wore only a simple robe of white. "I am going down to meet' the Prince," said Grace. "I will take him in to dinner and let him sit on my right hand. You can do what you please." And she walked proudly out of the room, for she meant to win the Prince for herself. Sybil, who was

worried about the poor, sick widow jjj it.Vin UvoA arrnaa ih( fields Went out ! IV

to visit at the cottage where' the j woman lived. "I can see the Prince tomorrow,"!

fche said, "but I must not Keep oia

Orannv Goodman waiting." So she

carried in a basket some cake and wine which she left at the cottage door. i think I will walk back through the park." she said, as she turned to go. "It is cool under the trees." So down the leafy path she strolled, her big dog at her side and her basket hanging on her arm. Presently she heard the tramp of a horse's feet and a handsome young man In green velvet rode up. "I have lost my way, fair maid," he f,aid, doffing his cap gracefully. "Could you kindly tell me the way?" The Princess, who thought this was one of the Prince's attendants, told the young man that she was going that road herself and would be glad to guide him So the two walked on chatting merrily. Sybil told about her pleasure in helping the poor and the young man showed that he was a person with a kindly heart, too. He did not guess that he was talking to one of the King's daughters, but when he parted from Sybil he felt that this sweet girl had won his heart. And he sighed at the thought he must wed another. , That night at dinner, Grace was

blazing in jewels, but the Prince did,'

nnt seem interested, mere were

still the Prince seemed melancholy. Grace talked, played on the harp and sang her sweetest, but the young Prince did not seem to notice her. Presently he stole out on the balcony, and there, amid the roses, he saw a slight, girlish form. It was his companion of the wark in the woods. "I love you, and you alone?' he said, taking Sybil's hand, "I cannot marry either one of the King's daughters, for I love but you. I can give you my heart, my hand and the granting of one wish. For at my birth a kind fairy told me that on the night I became engaged to my bride, anyone to whom I gave a white rose would have her wish granted. If they were good, like you, it would be to their happiness. If they were not good it would work them a just punishment" As he said this he reached a white rose toward Sybil, but just at this moment Grace, who had seen him speaking to her sister, ran out angrily, and not knowing about the magic rose, seized it. Her mind at that instant was full of vanity. She was desiring splendor and fine clothes so she could,

she thought, win the Prince. So that as her hand grabbed the flower her lips uttered the wish, "I wish I was a splendid creature flashing with beauty." - . . . The. spell worked. In a moment Grace had disappeared and In . her place was a gorgeous bird, with spreading wings and a tall tail which glittered in every color of the rainbow.. On its head were three feathers where the girl had worn her crown. With a hoarse cry of dismay the bird, which was now a peacock, flew out into the garden and sat moping by the lake. And ever since then we find the peacocks are most at home in the handsome gardens of the rich. "I am the Princess Sybil," said the girl, placing her hands in those of the Prince. "I too, loved you when I thought you only one of the guards." So. the pair were married, and so happy was the old King that he got well and; lived for ten: years longer with the young couple in his marble castle by the lake.

"Nothing, except that a couple of days ago, he had an awful row with a man who called on him. It was about money matters, I think, and the old gentleman got very much excited. 'Not a cent!' he kept repeating, louder and louder, until he f fairly shouted. 'Not one more cent will you gef from me. This systematic extortion of yours must come to an end here and now! I've done all I'm going to, and yoifd better understand that clearly.' Then the other man, the visitor, got angry, too, and they went at it hammer and tongs. At last, Mr. Mallowe must have lost his head completely, for he accused the other man of robbing his safe. At that, the visitor got calm and cool as a cucumber, all of a sudden, and began to question Mr. Mallowe. It seems from what I beard I can't recall the exact words that not very long ago, the night watchman in the offices was chloroformed and the safe ransacked, but nothing was taken except a letter. ' "'You're mad!' the strange man said. 'Why in h1 should anybody take a letter, and leave packets of giltedged bonds and other securities lying about untouched?' " 'Because the letter' happens to be one you would very much like to have in your possession, Paddington." the old gentleman said. Oh, I forgot to tell you that the visitor's name was Paddington, but that doesn't matter, does it? 'Do you know what it was?' Mr. Mallowe went on. 'It was a. certain letter which Pennington Lawton wrote to me from Long Bay two years ago. Now do you understand?'" "'You fool!' said Paddington. -'You fool, to keep It! You gave me your word that yould would destroy it! Why didn't you?' '"Because, I thought it might come In useful some day, just as it has now,' the old gentleman fairly whined. 'It was good circumstantial evidence.' "'Yes fine!' Paddington said, with a bitter kind of laugh. 'Fine evidence, for whoever's got it now!' " 'You know very well who's got it!' cried Mr. Mallowe. 'You don't pull the wool over my eyes! And I don't mean to buy it back from 'you,-either, if that's your game. You can keep it, for. all I care; It's served its purpose now, and you won't get another penny from me! .' : v . "Well, I wish you could have heard them, then!" Loretta continued, with gusto. "They carried on terribly; the whole ofllce could hear them. It was as good as a play the strange man, Paddington, denying up to the last that he knew anything about the robbery, and Mr. Mallowe accusing him, and threatening and bluffing it out for all he was worth! But in the end, he paid the map some -money, for I remember he insisted on having the check certified, and the secretary himself took it over to the liank.. I don't know for what amount it was drawn." "Why didn't you tell me that before, Loretta?" asked Anita, reproachfully.

"I. mean, about the the names Mr. Carlis called, me, and bis suspicions. I wish I'd known it half an hour ago, when he telephoned to me!" . "That's just why I didn't tell you, Miss Lawton!" responded Loretta, with a flash of her white .teeth. "Mr. Blaine told me to report to him this afternoon, and I meant to, but he didn't tell me to talk to anyone else, even you. When you asked me to undertake this for you, you said I was to do just what Mr. Blaine -directed, and I've tried to. It was on the tip of my tongue to tell you, but I thought I'd better not, at least until I had seen Mr. Blaine. I was sure that if I said anything to you about it, you would let Mr. Carlis see your resentment the next time he called, and then

he and Old Mr. Mallowe would get their heads together, and find out that

their suspicions of all of us girls were correct. You wouldn't want that." "Miss Murfee Is quite right," Blaine

Interposed. "You must be very care

ful. Miss Lawton, not to allow Mr,

Carlis to discover that you know any

thing whatever of that conversation at least Just yet." "I'll try, but it will be difficult, I am afraid," Anita murmured. "I am not accustomed to to accepting Insults. Ah! if Ramon were only here!" Wilkes, the butler .appeared at the deer just then, with a card, and Anita read it aloud. "Mr. Mallowe." "Oh, gracious, let me go, Miss Lawton!" exclaimed Loretta. "I've told you everything that I can think of, and if he sees me, it will spoil Mr. Blaine's plans, maybe?" "Yes, he must not find you here!" the detective agreed hurriedly. "I'll communicate with you at the club if I need you again, Miss Murfee. You have been of great service to both Miss Lawton and myself." When they were alone for the moment before the street-railway president appeared, Blaine turned to Anita. "You will try to be very courageous, and follow whatever lead I give you?" he asked. "This interview may prove trying for you." Anita had only time to nod before Mr. Mallowe stood before them. He paused for a moment, glanced lnquir-

This Will Remove Hair or Fuzzy Growths

A 6afe, certain method for ridding the skin of ugly, hairy growths is as follows: Mix a paste with some powdered delatone and water, apply to hairy surface-about 2 minutes, then rub off, wash the skin and the hairs are gone. This is entirely harmless and seldom requires ' repeating, - but to avoid disappointment it is advisable to see that you get genuine delatone. Adv.

Ingly at Blaine and then advanced to Anita with outstretched hand. If he had ever seen the detective before, he gave no sign. "My dear child!" -he murmured, unctuously. "I trust you are feeling a little stronger this afternoon a little brighter and more hopeful?" "Very much more hopeful, thank you, Mr. Mallowe," returned the young girl, steadily. "I have enlisted in my cause the greatest of all investigators. Allow me to present Mr. Henry Blaine." "Mr. Blaine," Mallowe repeated, bowing with supercilious urbanity. "Do I understand that this is the private detective of which I have heard so much?" Blaine returned his salutation coolly, but did not speak,' and Anita replied for him. "Yes, Mr. Mallowe, Mr. Blaine is going to find Ramon for me J" Mallowe shook his head 6lowly, with a mournful smile. "Ah! my dear!" he sighed.. "I do not want to dampen your hopes, heaven knows, but I very' much fear that

that will be an impossible task, even for one of Mr. Blaine's unquestioned renown." - '. "Still, it ts always possible to try."the detective returned, looking levelly Into Mallowe's eyes. - "Personally, I am very- sanguine of success." To Be Continued. """"
