The statue of Liberty in New York
harbor is no longer the largest statue
in the world, as has been always hith-
erto supposed. One larger still exists
in Kamakoua, the ancient capital of
Japan. 1t is representation of the
god Buddha, and contains in its center
large temple reached by stairway
rising to a height of nearly 200 feet.

STREET FAIR GAMBLING
GOVERNOR says THERE MUST BE
NONE OF 1T AT TERRE HAUTE.
He Issues Instruction. to the Police
Board-ImmoraI shows Must
Also Stop.

Terre Haute and other cities in the State
in which the police board is appointed by
the Governor are agitated over the Gov
errors attitude on the questions of shows
and gambling during street fairs. A special
from Terre Haute last night said that the
committee Of the Street Fair Association
was yesterday notified by President Raidy,
Of the polite board, that ground-fioor gam
bling and shows with immoral features
would not be permitted during the week Of
the street fair. The fair will be held week
after next. The special then says:
Some of the shows have been engaged
and money has been solicited from saloons
which expected TO nave games of chance
in the saloon room. 1t has been known that
the opponents of the usual policy during
such weeks have appealed to the Governor
given the police board Instructions, 1t is not
known for a fact that he has done so. AS
the board has heretofore permitted wide
open gambling. when nothing special has
been going on in town this notice leads to
the belief that the board has received orders
from the Governor"
Governor Mount has given instructions,
as last evening he said:
II gave President Raidy some ~instruc-
lions regarding these points. I told him
that Il has been reported to me from other
points in the State that some OF the shows
which have been at the street fairs have
features in them which are gross immoral
titles and which are degrading to those who
witness them. / told him that / wanted the
police to make thorough investigation of the
shows which will be ut Terre Haute and
see that none of these grossly immoral
/ told him that wide-open gambling must
not be tolerated or permitted"

Ninth District Politics.

Mr.. Boyd said that a telegram I'm the Jour

says. been electioneering each and every
central committeeman for the last two
months. while Mr.. Boyd says he has not

Boyd says he told the committee: You are

they VIII support at the congressional con-
vention, then in that event l would be will
ing TO leave il TO the primary vote of the

Boyd says he also proposed that the candi-
dates themselves get together and decide
who shall be the candidate. but none of his
propositions was accepted. Senator Boyd
also saws that the big Republican majority
OF Hamilton county had nothing to do with
the question as 10 who should be the Re-

JEWELER MAUZY'S ARREST.
Charged with Buying a Watch n Lit
tie Girl Had stolen.

Lon r. Mauzy, a jeweler doing business
at 207 Massachusetts avenue and residing
at 23 North Alabama street. and George
Stewart, a clerk employed by MauZy, were
arrested yesterday by Detectives Asch and
Dugan and charged with receiving stolen
goods and violating the %pawnbroker ordi-
nance.
Mrs. Fewell. living at 321 North Alabama
street, has for sometime missed small ar
ticles of jewelry, and about a week ago her
gold watch was taken from the dresser. The
loss was reported to the police. Yesterday
a ~neighbor's girl, thirteen years of age, who
has been in the habit of making frequent
visits to Mrs. Fewell's home, entered the
house and on her wrist was one of Mrs.
Fewells missing bracelets. The girl was
questioned, and cried upon being accused
of taking the things. She went home and
shortly after, her aunt went to Mrs.
Fewell's home and returned several pieces
of jewelry which the little one had hid in
her room. When the detectives were called,
they questioned the girl and she told them
she had sold the watch to a jeweler on
Massachusetts avenue for % cents. She
described the place and the man TO whom
she had sold 1t, saying that the imam at
the bench was the one that bought IT.
The detectives. called on Mauzy. but he de-
MED knowing anything about it. The clerk
was then interviewed, and he also denied
any knowledge of the transaction. After
another talk with the girl, the detectives
were satisfied that she was telling the truth
and that Mauzy was the man who bought
the watch. Both MauZy and the clerk were
arrested and identified by the girl. Mauzy
still insisted that he had not seen the watch
but Stewart, after being told that If he did
not buy the watch. he was not liable. said
that he witnessed the purchase. and added
that Mauzy sent him with the watch and
some old gold to a manufacturing jeweler
to have the gold made into a ring. The
price asked for the work. he said. was $1.50,
which Mauzy considered too much and said
he would send it to New York, where ii
could be done for less money. The girl
said she tried TO sell the watch at several
other places but was told that they could
not make such purchases from children.
All of Mrs. FewefiAs missing property was
returned. with the exception of the watch,
which Ii Is thought was sent to New York,
though this is still denied by MauZy.

FIRE AT BROAD RIPPLE
GUS BARTHEL,S RESORT IN THE
SUBURB AGAIN DESTROYED.
Less Estimated at $4,000, with $4,000
Insurance-The Proprietor Thinks
the Building Was Fired.

The Little Deutsche House at Broad Rip
pie. owned by Gus Barthel, was completely
destroyed by fire last night. At 4 O'Clock
smoke was discovered pouring from the
rear of the attic. Before a line of bucket
passers could be formed the entire house
was ablaZe. At 9 O'clock nothing remained
OF the frame building except the blackened
foundation walls. The loss was estimated
late last night TO be s12, 900, while the in
surance amounts to 5000.
The Little Deutsche House had been es-
tablished since March, when it was first
destroyed oy fire. Recently it attained some
notoriety as the headquarters of some
gamblers, who made nightly excursions TO
the suburban village and operated the
games said TO be located in the house. Ac-
cording to the owner, Gus Barthel, the
residents Of Broad Ripple have objected TO
the place on this account and have made
several complaints directly to him as well
as TO the authorities. Otherwise, ii & said,
the house has been quietly and orderly con-
Quoted.
Barthel declared last night that the fire
was the work Of some of his enemies. He
said that when the flames were first dis
covered the odor of coal oil was noticeable
and that he believed the attic, which was
easily accessible to any one who cared to
enter, had been saturated with the oil and
then fired. The attic was stored with
furniture and was ~unoccupied. No lamps
or lights of any kind had been taken into
that part of the house and no matches had
been left there. There was no fire burning
in any part of the house, which was lighted
throughout with electricity. A few minutes
before the fire was discovered both Barthel
and a boy employed by him. David Kesler.
had been in the upper part OF the mousse
and had not noticed either the smoke or
odor of burning wood. Barthel said IL was
in the suburb and were responsible not only
for his loss but for the fire which occurred
a week ago, In which the livery stable
owned by /. o. White was destroyed. Con-
nected with the Little Deutsche House was
a power house from which the current was
obtained that supplied the place with lights.
This was in operation at the time or the
fire, but when the alarm was given some
one entered the engine room and turned off
the current. at the same time opening the
valves OF the boiler so that the water would
escape. There was an attachment with the
10 throw q stream OF water through the
piping of the house. 1t was put In with
water, Barthel claimed. allowed the flames
to spread to such proportions that by the
time the hand pump was brought INTO serv-
ice the place was doomed.
Residents who live in the vicinity OF the
resort deride the idea of ircediarism and
declare that the fire was due TO the cross
ing OF two electric wires. 1t was said that
the house was destroyed previously, on
March 8 Of this year, from the same cause
or from a defective flue. The fire service
Of the suburb consists of a hand pump
manned by volunteers.
