PAY FOR THE MILITIA
GOVERNOR MATTHEW'S HAS A PLAN
NOW BEING FORMULATED.
A Wealthy Resident Offers to Help
Raise n Fund - Vouchers Can
BE Discounted.

The problem of how the militiamen are
to be paid remains unsolved. The troops
who served in the recent furry in the min
ing regions are not at all anxious, how
ever, over the matter. They will not dis
count their vouchers for time, at any
rate. Governor Matthews says a plan is
being formed to raise the money for the
troops, and is confident it will go through
all right, so that the soldiers will have to
wait but short time for their pay.
A wealthy resident of this city told the
Governor Saturday that he would be one
of several to advance the money necessary
to pay the Indianapolis companies. He
thought it the duty of every community
represented by a military company at the
scene of the recent troubles to provide for
paying that company and wait for the
next Legislature to appropriate funds suffi-
cient to reimburse them
The gentleman who made Governor Mat
thews the offer said he would be content to
await the action of the next Legislature
in the matter, and believed the money
should be advanced without interest The
amount, he said was not large, and yet the
militamen were in need of 1t, for many of
them lost their salaries during the time
they were absent. Offers to discount their
vouchers have been made a number of the
soldiers. who are advised at headquarters,
however, not to sell their time on any ac-
count The would-be purchasers offered, in
most instances, Is cents on the dollar, al
though some of the more nervy ones made
offers of so cents. These latter were evil

SMITHS II PER CENT
ASSISTANT LEON BAILEY A VALU-
ABLE AID IN FEE GRABBING.
Furnishes the Brains for the
Entire StatehOuse.

The fact that Greene Smiths rake-off
from his four years as Encouragement
is estimated at a quarter of a million or
dollars has given rise TO more or less
comment on the subject in the<Statehouse.
One of the officials said Saturday that he
thought the estimate too high, though he
believed Smith would retire from office
with fortune. He put the Attorney-gen-
erals winnings at 100000. Others regard
the s250.o00 estimate about right and
say that Smith is the luckiest man who
ever drew official breath.
They declare that he could fall in the
canal and come I'D with a fee in each
hand, where another man would have
nothing but mud. One official remarked
that Smith and Leon Bailey formed
strong combination. the former having all
the luck In Indiana and the latter being
shrewd enough to scent big fat fee
year in advance.
The Tolleston Club case is cited as an
instance of Bailey's keen scent. If things
come their way they will pull off $4,000
from this suit next fall. What the At
torney-general pays his assistant is one
of those things that can only be guessed
at. but 1t is likely that the latter gets a
percentage in these big cases.
Recently in conversation concerning the
mental wear and tear of his office Attor-
ney-general Smith, bringing his .ponderous
fist down upon the substantial table he has
thumped so often during the past four
years. said he not only furnished brains
for his own but for all the other offices
in the Statehouse To this fact he at
tributed much of that tired mental feeling
he suffered from. the only compensation
for which was the paltry pay of his office.
This remark was repeated to one of his
fellow-officials. who did not take it in
good part but holly said, ST never asked
him for any of his ID brains"
The Attorney-generals assertion concern
ing the furnishing of brains for the whole
building caused some one to spread the re-
port that the northeast corner of the
Statehouse. in which his office is located,
was settling. Visitors to the building for
a time gave careful. attention to that por-
ton with a view to finding evidences of
the settling reported Smith wondered why
his Office was the object of so much
curious attention, and when he found out
accused State Auditor Henderson of
spreading the report. People came peering
about his Office in way that annoyed the
big Attorney-general, who vows he will
get even with Henderson.

UNBURIED BODIES AT GREENLAWN.
No Death Certificate or Permits Re-
CURED for Vaults.

DR.. carp, Of the Board of Health, went
down to Greenlawn Cemetery on Saturday
to make an examination of the vaults used
by the undertakers. He made several sur
prising discoveries, and to-day will call
the attention of the Mayor TO them.
Although Greenlawn has been abandoned
as a cemetery and it is supposed that I'M
dertakers have no right to use the ceme-
terry premises for the disposition of bodies,
DR.. carp found four bodies of people,
who have recently died, in the vaults
These people have all died within the last
six weeks. and one of the bodies was in a
very bad state. The decomposed matter
was oozing through the casket to the floor
Of the vault. This was the vault which
undertaken Willis uses. All the other
vaults used by other undertakers, are in a
bad sanitary condition. DR.. carp will ask
the Board of Health to compel the under
takers to bury the bodies Immediately
He was also surprised to find that no
burial permit or death certificate was re-
1uired for placing bodies I'm the vaults.
This matter will also be placed before the
city authorities. DR.. carp will consult
with the city attorney to-day to see what
steps can be taken TO prevent further unsan-
itary arrangements at Greenlawn.

But the YoCng Lady Did Not Know Rt
and There Was n Scene.
Those little patent affairs which
are the latest in toydo-n are destined
to create a great deal of excitement
along crowded city thoroughfares.
One day last week, for instance,
there was group of male pedestrians
gathered in close ranks with craned
necks about a fakir on a Chicago
street.
A :resh-faced, pretty girl in a big
hat and stylish wrap sailed jaunt;ly
down the street, the embodiment of
brave and independent womanhood.
This dauntless young woman ell
bowed her way ahead through the
crowd and glanced casually at the
fakir with n little superc .lious smile,
which included the group of curious
loiterers.
Suddenly the group was agitated
and swayed in from the curb, and q
small dark object scurried across the
pavement.
"O-w!"
A distinctly feminine scream smote
the circumambient air and the brr.ve
young woman, her eyes distended by
terror, grabbed at her skirts with
both has as and sprang into the mid
die of the street. recklessly under the
very nose of a herdic horse. The
herdic driver said som eth ng emphatic;
the men on the pavement grinned;
the fal1ir dangled his patent gray
mouse and expatiated on its resem-
blance to the real thing, and the
young woman made wide circuit of
the fallir's corner AMI dived into the
crowd skurrying down Washing TON
