SUIT AGAINST NEELY
All of His Goods to Be Attached-Attor-
 ney General Responsible

Indianapolis, May 29.-ttnited States Dis trict Attorney Wishard, on behalf of the government, today brought suit against Charles F. Medley to attach all the prop erty belonging to the latter that may be found in this state. The suit was brought under orders from Attorney General Griggs. It is the intention of the govern ment to levy upon the Nicely Printing company's plant at Muncie, and Deputy Marshal John Foley will leave for Muncie tomorrow morning to serve the writ of att tachment and take charge of the proper ty. It is believed that the government au- thorities have hopes of proving that the transfer of the printing company to Ross Cowan was made with the intention to de- fraud creditors and to turn all his prop erty into cash.
 The suit is based on an affidavit sworn to against Nicely by Inspector General G. H. Burton, who investigated the shortage in the Cuban accounts for the govern ment

WASTE COTTON MATERIAL
How it is Utilized By Foreign Manufac-
 turers-Consul's Report

Washington, May 29.-In compliance with requests from firms in this country, the state department recently sent in structions to various consular officers in England, Germany and Russia to ascer- tain the disposition made of the waste products of cotton mills, with a view to utilizing these products in the United States.
 The reports indicate that great difficulty was experienced by the consuls in ob- taining the desired information. In good many cases the foreign manufact- urers refused, for obvious reasons, to dis close their methods of utilizing the waste cotton material, but it was learned that most of the waste cotton is reworked into fabrics and spun into low yarns. Waste products of American cotton mills are, and have been, exported in large quanti- ties from this country, and the desire to utilize the waste to good account at home if possible prompted the inquiries upon this subject from manufacturers in the United States.

TOMMY RYAN WAS
 RESTED BY M'COY One of Prettiest Round Fights on
 Record. THE REFEREE GOT A JOLT Awarded McCoy the Decision When it Was Agreed That Fight Should Be Declared Draw-Free-
 For-All Fight

Chicago, May 29.-Kid Mccoy was given a decision over Syracuse Tommy Ryan to- night at the end of one of the prettiest six round fights ever seen here. But over the decision and what Referee Malachy Hogan claims was misapprehension. free for all fight resulted, and but for the presence of large force of police, which hustled the men out of the ring and cleared the hall in a hurry, 1t is probable that the Me Coy-Ryan fight would not have been the most interesting thing on the evenings programme. One clause of the agreement was that a draw should be declared if both men were on their feet at the end of the sixth round.
 Referee Hogan said after the contest that he had no such understanding and render ed a decision as he thought just.
 As the bell rang at the end of the sixth round, Ryan. bleeding from ear and nose from the Kids fierce left jabs, but compar- atively fresh, started toward his corner.
 Mccoy wins" shouted Referee Hogan. In an instant the hall was pandemonium. . What do you mean?" said Ryan, in amazement
 Hogan said nothing, but climbed through
 
 You're a robber," shouted Ryan. Hogan turned around and just as he did so Ryan swung his left to Hogan's face. Quick as a flash Hogan returned the compliment with blow on Tommy's nose. But before they could go further the police were be- tween them. The Tattersalls management admitted after the fight that the draw agreement was correct, but said Hogan's decision would stand.
 So far the fight was concerned, Me Coy, in the opinion of large majority had long shade the better of it. Ryan carried the fight to his man continually but the elusive Kid was generally out of the way, and his lightning jabs had Tom my bleeding early in the fight. Ryan shook the Kid up badly, however, a number of times with right and left hooks to the stomach and jaw, and was apparently fully as fresh as his unmarked opponent at the finish. The men fought at 15S pounds.
 In the preliminary, Jack Jeffries of Los Angeles made his debut in the ring in what was to have been a six-round go with ack Beauscholte of Chicago. Jeffries put his man out in the fourth round with a swing on the jaw.
 Not the least interested spectator of this bout was Jeffries' father, Rev. Jeffries, who witnessed a fight for the first time. What his opinion on the matter was, he refused to say, however.

"a Happy New Year to you!" This
is the greeting which will be heard
on every side as we cross the thres-
hold of the new year. 1t has become
a custom to repeat it. In many cases
it has little meaning, and is nothing
more than an empty compliment or an
idle wish. How much do you mean by
it? 1t is very easy to repeat the form
ula. 1t is very simple matter to buy
a New Years card and enclose 1t in
an envelope. But when you send this
greeting. or speak it do you regard
it as pledge or promise that you will
do nothing to make the recipient OF
it unhappy, and that you will do all
in your power to relieve his anxieties
and bring gladness to his heart?-

The new leaf that very seldom gets
turned over is the one in the diary.
Some men claim that they see the
old year out and the new one in by
getting SO drunk that they can't see
anything.
By New Year the silver plating
wears off many a Christmas present.
A good beginning is nalf the battle
except in the case OF keeping a diary.
The new date is as hard to remem-
ber as the new leaf.
Even though the arctic explorer
never discovers the north pole he de-
serves credit. for he always keeps a
diary.
New Year gives us n chance to re-
ciprocate to those who unexpectedly
gave us present at Christmas.
Seeing the old year out puts a man
in fit condition to swear off the next
day.-N. Y. World.

"A Happy Metz Year.

A happy New Year!" How many
people realize the meaning of the
| words as they go about with this
familiar greeting upon their lips? Il
wish you happy New Year!" Does
it not seem that the wish carries
| blessing with it? And l believe it
does when spoken by friends whose
words are always true and sincere.
For the benefit of those thoughtless
ones who never read between the lines,
let us analyze this significant greeting.
In the first place we wish our friends
happiness, and the next question which
naturally suggests itself is what CON
stitutes happiness? A little friend of
mine tells me that it is to eat all the
| candy he wants and not to go to bed
until he wants to do so. Another
friend of more mature years says that
she would be perfectly happy IL she
had all the money she wanted to spend
as She liked. Another desires fame,
another social position. And so we
might go on asking and finding out
that almost every one has a different
definition for happiness
If the young lad were allowed to
follow his own sweet will and surfeit
himself with sweets and late hours, |
think the result would be anything but
happy. AS for wealth, who can blame
anyone for wishing for all that one
cares to spend. and especially wom-
an to whom n separate income is the
exception rather than the rule. It Is
the spending of 1t which decides the
happiness or unhappiness of the
possessor. / do not believe that any
one was ever really happy who uned
wealth merely to crafty selfish am
btions
Fame. too, is a good thing to pos
sess, but how many who have gained
this high pinnacle viii tell you that
1t brings happiness Social position is
also something after which there is
much striving Yet when the coveted
place is reached 1t Is so often found
to be barren. and happiness has no
resting place there. Social position
brings heavy responsibilities with 1t,
and social duties are hard and labori-
Gus without tho happy results that
follow labor in more worthy causes.
II seems. then. that there must be
some special way to happiness not
easily found. There is. but 1t is easy
enough to be seen by all who care
to follow its winding way. Wiser
heads than mine found out long ago
that only in trying to make others
happy is real happiness ever gained
for oneself.
SO in wishing our friends happy
New Year. we really obligate ourselves
to do all that we can to make the
