$45,000 BOND ISSUE IS PASSED BY COUNCIL AFTER LEGAL OPINION
Passage of a $45,000 bond Issue, after iTepeal of the1 $76,000 issue -which had fromerly been authorizii, was the
chief business before the city council
at the Tecular session Monday evening
The $45,000 Issue was substituted for
the larger issue because of legal ob
structions in connection witn ine latter. A new question of law interpreta tion was the-cause of the council's ac
tion. A law firm at Indianapolis, which
had been authorized to pass upon the legality of the bonds, questioned the
issue because the city's share of street intersection Improvements was being paid for by the issue of bonds. -Although a 1916 bond Issue had pass
ed without objection from anyone, ana
the law had not been changed 6ince,
it was felt 'best .by the city officials
that there should be no basis for ques
tioning the bonds and for this reason.
a new issue was authorized from whicn
the payments for street intersection
was eliminated. Things Included. The southwest sewer system, motor
ized equipment for the fire and street
departments, a new boiler for the city
building, and payments on market
house lots are included In the $45,000
issue.
The city bus ordinance which had
been hanging fire for several weeks was tabled until a later meeting. A
new bus company which had come to
town recently, was ordered mvestigat ed by the mayor.
Councilman Ford asked if there was
an ordinance limiVng the speed of in
terurban cars. The death of a man at
Thirteenth and Main streets recently.
in an interurban crash was referred to
by him.
The matter was referred to the city attorney. Councilman Ford was asked
to get a copy of the motorman's state
ment for the use of the chief of police
and the city attorney.
Councilman Waltermann asked for
more rigid enforcement of the traffic
ordinance, and the request was refer
red to the police department. PAPERS FOR TRANSFER

WHO FELL AT FORT ST. GLAIR NOV. 6; 1792
REVENGE IS SWEET "Conductor!" screamed the woman who carried many bundles, as she paused on the platform of a crowded street car, "I thought I told you I wantrd to get off at Kenwood aver.ueV' "But, madam " began the conductor. "Don't say a word! I know all
about jour car being filled and about you not being able to remember where everybody gets off. I have heard all
that before."
"But, madam " again commenced
the conductor. "You may be sure," poured out the woman, "I shall report you for your impudence, too." She alighted from the car, which started up again. Then the conductor touched his cap and for the first time being able to get a word or two in sideways, respectfully called after the woman left behind: "Very sorry, madamt but Kenwood avenue is half a mile further 'on."

EATON, Ohio, Nov.. 7. With ceremonies fully in keeping with the occasion, the first annual historical Si. Clair Day was observed here Monday afternoon and evening by the Preblo County Historical society and citizens of the county. The day marked the anniversary of an important battle between whites and Indians at Ft. St. Clair, one mile west and slightly to the south of Eaton. The date was Nov. 6. 1792. The commemorative ceremonies included unveiling and dedication of a monument at Ft St. Clair in the afternoon, followed by a program of exercises in the assembly hall In the courthouse. C. B. Galbreath, of .Columbus, secretary of the state historical and- archaelogical society, gave the dedicatory address at the unveiling of the monument: He also gave an address later
at the meeting in the courthouse. In dedicating the monument he paid a touching tribute to the heroes who fell in battle at the historic old fort. He said they had waited 130 years for the tribute that was being paid them today. He declared it most fitting that the monument dedicated to their memory should be erected by a veteran of the Civil war Major W. H. Ortt. Monument Unveiled The monument was' unveiled by little Miss Marion" McPherson, of Eldorado, daughter of H. R. McPherson, president of the county historical society. A flag salute of 21 rounds frort. a cannon was fired. Prayer was offered by the Rev. Charles F. Irwin, Eaton Presbyterian church, an overseas chaplain and chaplain of the American Legion post of the county. L. F. Schieser, treasurer of the historical society, led the assemblage in repeating allegiance to the flag. . Mrs. Henrietta Clerke, of Cincinnati, fired the salute to the flag. She is the daughter of Dr. C. M. Wilcox, of New Paris, inventive genius, who constructed the breech-loading cannon used in the ceremonies. H. A. Hoff
man, of Lewisburg, timed the firing of
the salute. A girls sextet from Union high .school, .Lewisburg, sang a song,
which concluded the ceremonies at the
fort. One hundred or more persons
were present. Histori'-il Episodes
The afternoon and 'evening pro
gram in the courthouse was devoted
largely to presentation of historical
episodes by school children in appro
priate costumes. These included "Lost Treasures" (Columbus meeting the Indians), "The Birth of the Flag", "Lowrey's Skirmish at Ludlow's Spring," "Surrender of Indians at Greenville", "Mad Anthony Wayne in Preble County", "An Original Indian Play". Legends of early Preble county his
tory was given by Frank Blackford, of Eldorado. A story of Ft. St. Clair was contributed by Ralph Ehler, of West Alexandria high school. Musical numbers rounding out the program were given by Mrs. H. L. Risinger, Mrs. C. A. Burns, Miss Helen Young, Miss Mary Cottingham, Charles Cottingham and Roy Benham, of Eaton; Oleson Zimmerman, of Gratis, and a quartet from the Monroe township high school. President McPherson of the historical society, presented in an address the aims of the society.

preble county boulder and was pro

of Eaton. A tablet in the face of
the monument bears this inscription:
'Erected by William H. Ortt in Oct
1922. Sacred to the memory of the soldiers who fought and died in the
battle with the Indians at Ft. St. Clair,
Nov. 6, 1792." The tablet is of bronze.

of Dr. C. M. Wilcox, of New Paris. The
flag staff also was erected by Major

and balls he will erect.

The Indian hordes in the battle were led by Little Turtle, while Capt. John Adair led the opposition. The fort took its name from Gen. Arthur St Clair, then governor of the Northwest Territory.

PUBLIC INITIATION IS STAGED BY KLAN
- A capacity audience, packing the coliseum to the doors which were closed in the faces of 200 more who were unable to enter, witnessed the
demonstration of a Ku Klux Klan initiation given ' by robed and vmasked
members of the organization Monday night. Whole families attended the meeting in a body, coming early and securing favorite seats. As the floor filled, several of the Klansmen acted as ushers. 11 Exercises started at 9 o'clock when
the members of the organizatipn, who had been standing in the wings, filed out onto the stage and formed two
lines across the front with folded arms
The Klansmen previously, had filed
down the aisle and across the plat
form to the rear. There were 42 Klansmen, 26 in the front row and
16 in the rear row, in addition to a
leader and assistant. , A short speech explaining the ob
jects of the Klan was made by one of
the members, after which an Imtia
tian was given for the information of the audience. An electric cross was erected behind a flag draped table on which wer,e a crossed sword and scabbard and a Bible. The several oaths were read from a manuscript by the leadeT"and repeated in unison by the Klansmen. It was explained that the special speaker engaged for the evening had been taken to another city by mistake. The ceremony was preceded by the playing of two selections by a Klan band, of "Muncie Klan No. 4, Realm

of Indiana," consisting of 28 pieces. "Onward Christian Soldiers" and "Battle Hymn of the Republic" were the pieces selected. As the crowd filed out, Klansmen stationed at the doors directed it and
