30 Hogs are Smothered When Freight Cart are Derailed Near Dublin Thirty "hogs . were smothered to death In a freight car late Monday night when three cars on the Pennsylvania line were derailed at Vine Hill near Dublin. The accident was caused by an Inexperienoed brakeman, who threw the derailing switch. Three hundred and eventy-flve hogs and some cattle were in the cars which were derailed. One of tne cars
turned over and the animals in this car smothered bfore they could be rescued. The section crew was called out to save the stock In the de railed cars. Trains running from' Indianapolis to Richmond were delayed several hours by the accident. WAR GARDENS TO BE PROTECTED Strict enforcement of the city ordinance governing the conduct of dogs was decided upon at the regular meeting of the city council Monday night, as a move to protect war gardens. Dogs are not allowed to run at large about the streets. Councilman Bulla suggested that the police, especially the newef men on the force, acquaint themselves with all of the city laws and ordinances and see that they are obeyed. The pig ordinance came up for consideration again. This ordinance grants permission to any citizen to raise two pigs In a pig pen providing the same is kept In a sanitary condition. Mayor Zimmerman objected to the ordinance. It passed the first reading Monday night. The fire department was also grilled last night by the mayor, who said. "I am in favor of increasing the salaries of the firemen in a reasonable amount, but 1 am not In favor of submitting to exactly as they want. It is the business of the council to watch the finances of the city and not allow anyone to dictate." The mayor Bald he understood the firemen had declared they would quit unless their pay was increased. He declared that he did not care if they all quit, as the city would have no trouble in filling their places. 1). S. COLONEL IS LISTED AS MISSING WASHINGTON. April 16. Col. R C Boiling of the aviation section of the signal corps is listed as captured or missing in the casualty list issued today. He formerly was assistant general counsel of the United States Steel Corporation and was commissioned soon after war was declared. Col. Boiling had been interested in aviation for several years and offered his services to the government In that branch of the army long before the United States entered the war. He was commissioned a major In a reserve corps and was given charge of the organization of a squadron from New York. Learning that the government was having difficulty in obtaining adequate space for a training field, Col. Boiling leased one In his own name, paying over a substantial sum. About a year ago he was ordered to France as the representative there of the aircraft production board. Gen, Peshing later assigned him to other duties, however, and these must have taken him to the front. It was thought most probable at the war department that Col. Boiling was either shot down or forced to descend in enemy territory while engaged in a flight. REV. H. W. SCHWAN RESIGNS CHARGE Rev. H. W. Schwan, pastor of the Central Christian church for the last six months, has tendered his resignation to the congregation, and it has been accepted. Dr. Schwan said that he expected to enter a larger field of activity and gave this as his reason for leaving the local field. He has had several offers but has no definite location in mind. Rev. and Mrs. Schwan came to Rich; mond from Huntington, W. Va., last October. Dr. Schwan has been piominent in shop meeting In the city. Sheriff, Convicted of Fraud, Granted Parole LEAVENWORTH.

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM,
CONGRESSIONAL RACE CREATES IVIDEJNTEREST Thirteen ReDresentatives to - 4 1 Be Chosen for Indiana State 1 Legislature This Fall. - 1 1 1 (By AssovlatMI PrM INDIANAPOLIS. Ind., April While this year usually Is what wpuia be termed an off-year, so far as elections In Indiana are concerned, yet early forecasts of the 19J8 campaign indicate an interest almost equal to a presidential campaign. This Interest largely U due to the fights which will be made by the two parties for the election of congressional representatives from thfs state, thirteen of whom are to be chosen next fall. At present the state is represented in the National house of representatives by nine Republicans and four Democrats. As for state off leers, the governor and lieutenant governor hold over another two years, but the secretary of state, auditor of state, treasurer of state, attorney geperal, clerk of supreme court, state superintendent of public Instruction, state geologist, two judges of the state supreme court, four Judges of the state appellate court are to be elected, in addition to the members of the general assembly, congressmen, county and township officials. Contests for the seats in the general assembly, It is said, will be interesting due largely to the important legislation that probably will come up at the session beginning in January 1919. Two of the most important measures passed at the 1917 session have been declared invalid by the state supreme court and a thlrd-r-tbe state wide prohibition law, is pending before that tribunal. Acts of the last legislature granting women of Indi ana partial suffrage and providing for a new constitution were overruled by the court and undoubtedly will become issues In the campaign and in the assembly. There are 100 members of the lower house, all of whom are to be elected and 50 members of the senate, but half of these are hold-over. More than 25, however, will be elected this fall for the reason that there are a number of vacancies among the holdover members. The nine Republican members of the national house of representatives will be candidates' for re-election, it is said, and, with the possible exceptions of in the Sixth and Seventh districts, they will be unopposed for the nomination. The Democratic members also will seek re-nomination, it is said. All state offices, with the exception of geologist and part of the supreme and appellate courts, which are to be filled next November are now held by Republicans who made almost a clean sweep of the state house in the 1916 election. It is customary for state officers elected for two years to receive the party nomination for a second term and it is said that all the present Republican office-holders will be candidates for re-election and will be unopposed for the nomination. State-wide primaries will be held May 7, but they will be only of local interest as they provide for the nomination of township and county tickets, candidates for congress and the elec tion of delegates to the state convention. The primaries are used to nominate candidates for governor, lieutenant governor and United States senators, but not for the minor state offices, which are chosen in the state conventions of the parties. W?hile no date has been set by either the Democratic or Republican leaders for their party convention, they probably will be held in Indianapolis early in June. In addition to naming the state ticket, the convention will adopt a platform. Before the time for the state conventions, it ia probable that both parties will have new state chairmen. Will H. Hays, who was elected chairman of the Republican National Committee at Its meeting in St. Louis, will probably resign as chairman of the Republican state central committee at Its first meeting. L. W. Henley, secretary of the committee and Hays' right-hand man in the last compaign, has been doing much organization work In the state since Chairman Hays has been looking after national Interests, and some leaders pick Henley to succeed Havs as state chairman. Charles A. Greathouse, Democratic state chairman, has been trving to re: sign bis position for some time and at a recent meeting of the central com mittee announced dates for reorgani zatlons meetings, but stated that the naming of the date for the state convention would be left to the re-organized Democratic state committee. Greathouse is former state superintendent of Public instruction and at present Is In charge of the vocational work in the federal bureau of education. DANDRUFF SOON RUINS THE HAIR Girls If you want plenty of thick, beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all means get rid of dandruff, for it will starve your hair and ruin it if you don't. It doesn't do much good to try to brush or wash it out. The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve jit, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about fpur ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moi6ten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By mirning, most if not all, of your dandruff wJI be gone, and three or four more applications wil completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of It. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will step, and your hair will look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive and four ounces is all you will need, no matter how much dan-j druff you have. This simple remedy j never falls. Adv. t

THE BUYING POWER OF 28 STORES MAKES THESE LOW PRICES POSSIBLE
Quite frequently we have been asked by people responding to our advertisements how it was that In face of rising costs of practically everything, we were able to maintain an almost normal price standard. The answer to that question is found In our buying association with 28 other stores. Through this buying connection forming one of the strongest buying organizations of the country we are able to secure from the manufacturers special price concessions because of the tremendous volume of business which we can give them. If each one of our associate Etores In this great chain was to. place Its order individually, it could not hope to secure the same low prices rrom the manufacturers, but by every one of the stores pooling its purchases In one great order, you can readily understand how manufacturers would do almost anything to secure that order. . - There you have the secret of the tremendous values which we have been able to offer the people of this city, despite general rising costs of labor, material, etc.
