PFRENZEL AND THE GERMANS.
better Representative German Wanted
ON Manua school Programme.

Albert Metzger, who is looked upon as a
leader in this city among the Germans.
has created somewhat of a sensation by
coming out i'm ali interview strongly on
posing John T.. Frenzel and declaring that
Mr.. Frenzel is not a representative Ger
man and cannot be expected 10 receive the
support of the German people in this city.
These expressions were called forth by a
conversation in regard to the coming School
Board election. He said he firmly believed
that the coming election would complete the
work begun last June, of overthrowing the
present majority and placing the business
OF managing the schools in the hands of
persons who would attend to it for the
interest of the people instead of for the in
terest of a few. Mr.. Metzger is quoted as
saying, when asked the attitude of the
German element toward Mr.. Frenzel:
"Well. you can judge a mans friends by
the way they flock to his support when
he is in trouble. If ever John Frenzel
needed friends il was during the School
Board investigation. At that time did you
hear OF Mr.. Nonnegut, or MIR. Lieber, or
Mr.. BONN or any other OF the solid Ger
man element saying a good word for him?
In regard to the cry that the Manual
Training School is due to the persistent eff
forts of Mr.. Frenzel. Mr.. Metzger ex-
planned that otto Stechhan was the man
Legislature and that the records of the Ger
man Manual Training School will show that
a vote of thanks was given Mr.. Stechhan
for mis- work, while Mr.. Frenzel was not
mentioned because he had done nothing.

purpose of investigation. Every member

cept Mr.. FrenZel, who never took a whit
of interest in the project. Eut he talked
Williams and Jones were no longer con-
nected with the board, Mr.. FrenZel was
enabled better to throw himself forward
and to make il appear as If he were the
central figure. l think that Superintendent
Jones would very gladly tell you how much
of a part Mr.. Frenzel played. He has had
almost nothing TO do with it,"
The leading Germans. Mr.. MteZger said,
do not approve of the selection by the School
Board of Mr.. FrenZel to represent them in
the dedication of the school. He said that
as soon as il was announced that such
would be the programme the German citi-
zens went to the School Board committee
true representative of them be placed on
the programme and at last succeeded in
getting Mr.. Stechhan'S name on 1t. When
asked who Mr.. Frenzel would represent, he
replied:
Himself, l suppose. He seems to be iso-
lated"
Mr.. Metzger also stated that the property
the School Board at corner OF Home avenue
and New Jersey street is owned by the In
diana Trust Company. and that the price
asked is 500 a front foot.

BOOKSELLERS COMPLAIN.
They Say Department stores Are Sell
ing Below Cost Price.

NEW YORK, May S.-k special meeting
of the executive committee of the News
dealers, Booksellers and Stationers' Ma
tional Association was held last night for
the purpose of formulating a plan for the
protection of the booksellers in the United
States against attacks made on them by
department storekeepers in regard to the
cutting of prices in books. 1t is contended
that storekeepers sell books far below cost
price in order TO cripple the trade of the
regular booksellers. An important feature
of the meeting, which was presided over
by National President NJ. Moy, of Paw
tucket, r. L., was to draft an appeal, which
will be issued in a few days to the entire
trade throughout the United States to at
tend a convention of the national associa-
Aug. Is and Is next. at which all matters
relating to the trade will be fully discussed.

STATEHOUSE FIGHT AGAIN.
Representative Allen. of Davicss
County. Before the Grand Jury.

Representative Josiah Alien, of Daviess
county. came to indianapolis Tuesday, in
response TO a summons issued by the Ma
rion county grand jury. Yesterday Mr..
Allen was closeted with the jury for several
hours. He was examined closely concern
ing the Statehouse trouble on the night
of the Legislatures adjournment and told
the jury all he knew about it. Representa-
tive Allen was on the elevator where Sec
rotary Myron King and Custodian Tim
Griffin were passengers and witnessed the
trouble in that quarter. 1t is now believed
that the grand jury will not return indict-
ments against those reputed TO have been
involved in the muSs. a large number of
witnesses have been examined, but thus
far the jury has found no one who would
testify that an assault was made upon
either King or Griffin. Several other wit
nesses have been to appear be-
fore the jury and tell what they know about
the trouble.

TWO WOMEN.
The Contrast Between Hetty Green
and Mary ~. Livermore.

chicago fterald.
There is Mrs. Hetty Green. She is a
woman OF one sort. Perhaps ii would be
more exact 10 say that she is a woman OF
her own kind. To be reputed TO be the
richest woman in America-that's one or
her distinctions. And this enormous wealth
has undoubtedly given to her certain cor
responding advantages. One might fancy
her to be one Of the happiest women 10 be
found. Maybe she il. But she doesn't ap-
pear to be so. In fact. she has made the
impression of being one of the least con-
tented and most anxious OF mortais. To
pay her taxes is a torture. To escape il
she il said 10 live in her satchcl and board
around. If she has ever tasted the sweet
ness OF a purely unselish act she has never
made much ado about IT. Possibly, let us
hope il. she is preparing for some regular
cloudburst of generosity in the use OF her
millions.
Then there is Mrs. Mary A.. Livermore.
She is perhaps as widely known ss Mrs.
Hctty Green. She and her husband have
just celebrated their golden wedding. She
Is not rich; she is only good. by her
philanthrophies during the war. and since
the war. by her force of character, her
cloquence and her earnestness ia all good
causes, she has made her nsTne TO be re-
veTed and loved throughout the Nation.
She has hosts of friends. while Hetty clings
tightly TO her millions; our Saint Mary

years ago that she really began her laree
and beautiful career Of trying to make

wrong and easier for them 10 do right

the lives OF all about her.
