Knapp, of Wayne county, who introduced the home rule bill in the Indiana general assembly, is sanguine of the possibility of its passage by the lower house and of favorable action in the senate. : He anticipates opposition from the Marion county delegation and believes that the nature of the attack on the measure will be revealed at the public hearing to be conducted at Indianapolis Thursday evening. Richmond must be represented at this meeting and be prepared to show the legislators that this city wants the bill enacted into law. Once before Richmond, with some of the public spirited men of Fort Wayne, was back of a home rule bill that was chloroformed in the committee. This time the bill will have a fair show in the committee, and it behooves us to see that the many favorable aspects of optional home rule be presented at the first public hearing. The civic bodies will send their representatives. As many citizens as can conveniently do so should be present Thursday to show by their interest and espousal of the movement that we are deadly in earnest about the passage of the bill. We have the assurances of support from the men who represent our community in the two houses. We must back them up with our presence Thursday evening. Home rule stands a fair show in the present general assembly. Public opinion in many Indiana cities is demanding a radical change in municipal - government. With the opportunity to obtain it, let's not pass up the chance by failure to emphasize its importance at the public hearing.
The First Symphony Concert The first of a series of concerts arranged by the symphony orchestra will be given tonight in the Coliseum. The public is aware that the future of the orchestra depends in no small measure
Good Evening By Roy K. Moulton A MODERN NOVELETTE. (By S'teve Post.) He and her sat opposite each other, a narrow cafe table between them. The place was crowded. Holllngsworth admired her Immensely and his face showed it. The waitress bent over them in turn. Ethel ordered a terrapin, a mixed salad and a pot of black tea. Hollingsworth orodered a filet de sole, some shoestring potatoes, a piece of pastry and a cup of black coffee. All eyes in that part of the restaurant were upon them. Ethel was beautiful. Hollingsworth was greatly envied. Yet a strange silence fell over them. Conversation was apparently not for them. "A lovers' quarrel," thought a baldheaded gentleman at the next table, "but she will melt him finally. Who could resist a face like hers? No, ihey are married. That's the trouble." Still, they did not speak. Occasionally the girl sighed. Suddenly Hollingsworth rose from the table, having finished his meal, took his overcoat and hat, and without a word to his fair companion, he stalked out of the place without even paying her check. "The brute," , mumbled the baldheaded man. "It. must be more serious than I thought." - Placidly t ho girl finished her meal, and then ordered a chocolate eclair, which - she consumed leisurely. The absence of her stalwart companion did not seem to weigh heavily upon her there was a reason. They were total strangers and hiul never seen each other before. FOR A WOMEN.

We are. having the same trouble we had a year ago in regard to our salary adjustment, and we believe we told you about it at that time. The matter has been hanging fire for several days, the office wishing to thrust upon us money per week than we think we earn, and we, bravely and with high-minded purpose, refusing absolutely to accept so large an Increase, This is one of the trial's of a column conductor's life. A column conductor is not like a street car conductor. He cannot take as much or as little as he thinks he i3 entitled ti. We shall insist upon the low figure, and if we doinot get it, we will go down with oui flag flying. But our readers should know us well enough by this tinie to believe that we positively will not abandon our principles in this matter. This, as we have often said, is a column with a conscience, and we will not board up an unearned increment this coming year We say we won't. But it is a nuisance to be forever nagging back and forth and resisting temptation and all that Memories of Old Days In This Paper Ten Year i Ago Today ' With the Farmers' Short Course only a week away, and preliminery arrangements made, committeemen and officials who had nothing else to worry over, were beginning, to castglances at the almanac and weath forecasts to try to fathom just what brand was to delivered during the bigGvent-

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can", "Take It", "Up". CHRISTY MATH E WSON One of the vital, saving institutions of civilization is clean sport. And there has never been a greater or cleaner sport than baseball. Ask the small boy which he would prefer to grow up and become President of the United States, or become the greatest baseball pitcher of his time. You know the answer in advance! And where in the sport did there ever arise a finer figure than that of the greatly beloved Mathewson? For months and months this pitcher, whose skilled arm has caused millions to jump from their seats, thrilled with admiration, has been lying very ill at Saranac Lake, in New York. The same fight that this superb character put up on many a baseball field, has been continued on the sick bed. And now the doctors tell us that he Is going to win there! So let us be glad and do all that we can to "pull" for him there as we have so aften done from our seats in the grandstand. Why not a postal card or a letter to him today, to cheer him on! I well remember one day watching this great pitcher. He tried his skill for a few innings, and he soon realized that he was not right that day. He needed no one to tell him he told himself. And with a smile he dropped the ball and walked off the field. The success of his team was always greater to him than any amount of personal applause or gain. Like a great, clear star In the" deep blue sky does the name of Christy Mathewson shine in the history of baseball. As a man big, generous, wholesome his name will always carry an inspiration to those who have seen or known him. The great "Matty" Avill live!
Rippling Rhym es By WALT MASON THIS PARLOUS TIME. It i3 no time for knocking, or pulling doleful face; predictions dire and shocking are badly out of place. For years our mood was mellow, we gamboled and we pranced; and now we pay the fellow who fiddled while we danced. Now let us be brave critters, r.nd pay the bill in style, and while we take our bitters, present, a dauntless smile. We're busy readjusting, we'd get. back on the track, and many things are busting, and many more must crack; it's courage that we are needing, and patience and good sense, and bosoms that are bleeding should bleed behind the fence. We knew when things were blooming that settlement must come, the day of fate was looming before us. stark and glum; and now that day we're facing, so let's conceal our fears; there Is no use disgracing our sex by shedding tears. All things will be adjusted, there are good times in store, the boons in which we trusted will be on deck once more, and he is streaked with yellow who makes a mournful din. now that we pay the fellow who played the violin. Correct English Don't Say: The jeweler did his work ACCURATE. He was an EXACT workman. The carpenter is a FINE workman. The orator made a NICE speech. The mathematician made a SHARP distinction in his adjustment. Say: The jeweler did his work ACCURATELY. He was an ACCURATE workman. The carpenter is an EXCELLENT workman. The orator made an EXCELLENT speech. - The mathematician made a NICE distinction in his adjustment. Nice, fine, got, splendid are good English words, but all are frequently misused.

upon the attendance and reception that is ac-! corded to the organization- tonight. A capacity house that will show its appreciation of the efforts of the players, who are giving freely, of their time for the development of the orchestra's excellence, will convince them Richmond really wants to support it. The establishment of the orchestra on a firm basis will give to this "city an enviable position as a musical center. There are very few cities in
the United States of the size of Richmond that can boast of as many accomplished musicians and of as' many persons who have made a study
Their individual love of music is collectively expressed in the symphony orchestra, which
seeks to develop love for good music in the community and to give to all of us an opportunity to
Proper, support of the orchestra is as much of a civic endeavor as is any of the scores of other enterprises that engage our attention and time.
The Farm and the City The number of institutes which are being held these days in surrounding rural districts, and the one that is to be held here, are helping to bridge the gulf that has kept the farmer and the city dwelled far apart. They are beginning to realize more and more that their interests are identical and that the welfare of one is intimately connected with the welfare of the other. The disposition to see this common ground is a great forward step in solving the many irksome conditions which have handicapped the farmer. We formerly believed that the farmer had nothing in common with us and that his problems were confined entirely to the acres which he tilled, forgetting that if the farmer does not produce crops those of us who live in the city will have no food to sustain us in our work in the shop and office. The institutes not only show the farmer how he can produce a greater yield and how to improve his live stock, but also show us how dependent we are on him for our daily bread. Agriculture will always be the basic industry of the land, and the one upon which our happiness and prosperity depends. A proper appreciation of the farmer and of the many problems which have beset him recently will go a far way toward changing our attitude toward him and of making those ad
vances which will enable him to make his enterprise a paying one for himself and of profit to us

The reporter developed such constructive ability and such a general liking for the romance of finance and business that before long he was a doctor to sick corporations. The executive ability which he displayed attracted the attention of the financial powers that be and from that hour his future was assured. He became an officer of th Backers Trust Company, a vice president of the First National bank and ten years ago he was admitted to partnership in the banking house of J. P. Morgan & Co.

By ED HOWE I am not a rich man; in this prosperous age I cannot be classed as well-to-do. But during a long life I saved a little for old age. I know it was my duty to deny myself in youth that I might not later be a dependent. I know

Any one may do It; it is the duty or every one to do it. I I know I am a better man than the loud-mouthed loafer who says I am a I
skinflint; and, what is better, my neighbors know it. I am that terrible thing, a landlord: that is, I own a farm, and have a tenant. What do I get
out of it? Less than two per cent on four per cent on Liberty bonds.
Success should be praised instead of condemned; it is a creditable goal we are all working for, and it is a mistake to apologize for failure. Millions of people who are not successful now will achieve it in ten or twenty years, and they should not befoul their own nest before they leave it.
Dinner Stories "What is the matter with that lady who just hurriedly left the store?" asked the grocer. "She found fault with the potatoes," replied the clerk. "What was the matter with the potatoes?" "She didn't like the color of their eyes!" Higgins, got home one night to learn that his wife had given birth to tripletsthree healthy, bouncing boys. Higgins, overjoyed, went to the office next morning and recounted the rare and wonderful thing which had befallen him. The chief clerk felicitated him heartily, and the -next day Higgins was sent for. He hurried to the office again, to find the entire firm assembled there. A hondsome silver cup stood on the mantel, and this trophy, in an eloquent speech, the chief presented to him in recownition of the triple blessing which he had bestowed upon his country. Higgins took the cup in his hand, bowed respectfully and said: "Excuse me, sir but, is this cup mine now, or do I have to win it three vears in succession?"
