ENIMERAIION OF MALE VUIEKS MUST BE TAKEN I HIS ^ EAR UNDER OLD LAW County auditor W. E. Gill has ie•eived supplies fortaking the enumeration of voters in Putnam county this year. The enumeration, which is required by state law, stipulates that each eownship trustee must make an enumeration every six years. It is understood that some of the township a.-sessors in Putnam county will assist hy taking the assessments while they are taking the lists oftaxables. The enumeration law i- a law little known to most people. The first law was passed in IKOli and required each township trustee to enumerate all white male inhabitants over twentyone years uf age in their respictive

townships.

In 1H77 an additional clause was injected requiring the trustees to enumerate also all negro male voters over votage age. Up to the present time tiu clause has been introduced in the legislature which requires the enumeration of woman voters. The trustees will m-eive the same compensation a.- they are entitled to for making the school enumeration and may appoint one or more assistants. The auditors get the same fees for their services in carrying out the proviisons that tin* law provides f i -iinilar services. The enumeration mu-t he completed and reports made

hy July first.

It was said this antiquated law will cost the county several hundred dollars. Supplies alone have already cost $300. According to local authorities the law oiiginally was passed for the purpose of congressional apportionment. Inasmuch a- it does not include the women voters it is useless for thi-

purpose now.

side of the road about a mile from th burning car and waved his hands as a signal for u lo stop. We stopped anti he. came up to the machine from behind. I asked hint if he had seen the ear. He asked me “What cur?” and I replied, “the hurtling automobile’ and he said, ‘No I have not seen it.’ Mr. Allen asked him to get into the ca:. “He sat down he-ide us in the front -eat and we continued on our way to Indianapolis. “I a-ked him where he was goi g and he aid he was going to Detroit hy way of Cleveland, O. He told u he had come from Terre Haute that day and had hitch-hiked all the way. He was wealing dark trousers, a light shirt, a datk raincoat, hut not a hat. He did not wear -|s>ctacles. He carried a heavy wool blanket over his tight arm and bund. He kept his tight hand coma tiled. We let him out at Sc ate avenue and Washington street after he had told u.- he did not want to go into the business district be-rau-o of lii- appearance. We told him we wete going to report the burning ear to the first policeman we saw but he didn’t reply.” Jurors moved forward in their seats, us did tie spectators, and listened attentively while the withness spoke. Mr. Holmes, on cross-examination spent considerable time obtaining detailed infot mat ion on the automhhile ride, the various roads the couple drove on. the time they left Indiana polls, and -itch details. He attempted to show that Miss Blue testified differently at the coroner’s inquest on sonn details, especially a- to the w ight and height of the man who was pick'd up. On two occasions the state was sustained by the court on objections to the defense attorney misquoting testimony of Miss Blue as a part of hi.- questions. He attempted to show that George F. Winkler, then shot iff, identified Schroeder for Miss Blue. “I identified Sehroedet at the jail by the way he talked, his Southern drawl,” Mi's Blue said. Judge Baker threatened to clear the court r. om of sp viator- at one point during cross-examination when Miss Blue made a humotous reply to a question. “We are h ving a trial here. This is a serious matter. I don't want laughter from the audience. 1 will clear th 1 court room if it happens again,” the judge warned.
