MODEL FOR M ARTIST.
Former indianapolis Woman Posed
for Charles Dana Gibson.

There is a lawyer in Indianapolis that is
so near-sighted he has formed the habit
of distinguishing acquaintance by their
forms and general appearance, rather than
by their faces. About a year ago" he
said. II was in a large store in New York
city engaged in conversation with a former
citizen of indianapolis, who is a partner III
the store. Happening to glance down the
aisle, L noticed a woman standing at a
counter, with her back to us. Her form
looked remarkably familiar to me-so much
venture that know that woman. Who is
she?' We'll, l shouldn't be surprised if you
do know her. he replied; for she used to
live in Indianapolis Her form looks I'M
commonly familiar TO me- / continued.
- That is quite natural responded my
friend, for you have seen it quite often
| became much interested In trying to find
out who the woman was, and when she
turned so that / could see her face l was
surprised to discover that / had never TO my
knowledge seen her before in my life.
Well, now, that's deuced strange / said.
Il could have sworn that l had seen that
woman
"'NVell. l will relieve your anxiety said
my friend. That woman Is Charles Dana
Gibson's model. She was once the wife of
a ~ell-know indianapolis man. from
whom she obtained a divorce. She came to
New York soon afterward. and in time
married again. but her husband not being
well-to-do. she was obliged to help make
the family living. Although she is at least
thi-ty-six years old and has a boy of seven
teen, she Is possessed of a figure that is
literally her fortune As you see, she
makes plenty of money as a model, for
few women in this city dress better than

STAY OF DEATH SENTENCE.
Supreme Judge Would Convene to
Consider This Matter.

IT see in the Journal of to-day that the
attorneys for John Rinkard. who is sem
fenced to hang at Michigan City Aug. %.
are coming To Indianapolis next Wednes-
day TO ask the Supreme Court for a stay Of
execution" said Deputy Attorney General
Merrill Moores last night. I'm order to
clear up any doubts that may exist in the
minds Of some people concerning this pro-
cedure l will say that If the Supreme Court
is requested TO come together in this city
in an important matter like the stay of
execution of a death sentence il will I'M
doubtedly do so. Only three members of
the court will be needed 10 secure such
a stay. and Just that number of the judges
are within the State at this ~time-Judges
Hadley, Monks and Baker.
'Of course, Rjnkard's attorneys cannot
come before the court and say they in
tend to prosecute an appeal and then ex-
pcct 10 secure a stay OF execution. They
will have TO file d brief setting forth the
errors alleged TO have been committed by
the trial court ana on which they rely to
secure a reversal OF the judgment and SEN
tence of death. That is all there is 10 the
affair. IL Is a perfectly simple matter, un-
happily for newspaper writer's who love
a sensation

FARMER BREEDS QUAIL
EVERY YEAR HE TURNS THEM
LOOSE EXCEPT ONE PAIR.
His Good Work Is a Violation of the
Law, but a DispensatiOn VIII BE
Granted to Him.

That the game law passed by the last
Legislature specifically prohibits a citizen
of Indiana performing a commendable
action is a discovery made by a State Of
fetal recently. This official received a let
ter from a son of a prominent general of
the civil war, now dead, in which the
writer told the following story: Several
years ago while blowing up a field on my
farm, 1 accidentally uncovered a nest of
quail eggs. ! took the eggs and put them
under a setting hen and they brought forth
little quail. These tended carefully and
they became very tame and were great pets
with the entire family, the children espe-
cially. In the fall of that year l turned all
of them loose except one pair, and this has
been my custom ever since. Not very long
ago, however, a neighbor began making me
trouble by telling me that l was violating
the law by having quail in my possession.
Now l want to know if L am committing
any violation Of the law and If | am l
would like TO secure a permit to keep the
quail l have on my place"
The State official in question will write
the farmer a letter to-day in which he will
inform the man that he is committing a
technical violation of the game law Of the
last Legislature, but that nevertheless ne
is doing a very commendable thing. THE
spirit of the law" said the official, "as
shown in its title is that the law was de-
signed TO protect the game within the
State, and this man is certainly protecting
game. l think every one who is doing as he
is should be encouraged, even though the
law does state that it shall be a penal
offence for anybody to be found with quail
in his possession. l shall write also to the
fish and game commissioner, asking that
official to issue this man a permit TO keep
the quail he has in his possession and to
continue the course of conduct outlined in
his letter. / shall also instruct the prose-
cutting attorney for that county that he is
not 10 prosecute the man on a charge of
possessing quail unlawfully."

He Jumped Into the Water Because
His A mates Urged Hin to
BE Game.
BODY BROUGHT UP BY A WIRE
MEMBERS OF AQUATIC CLUB AND
DOCTORS TRIED TO RESTORE HIM
Comment that the River at the Park
Is Dangerous Denied and Ex-
plantations offered.

Earl Fudge, eighteen years Of age, who
lived at 931 East Seventeenth street. and
had for a year been employed as a wrapper
at the store of Saks * Co, was drowned
yesterday afternoon at Broad Ripple. lie
had gone to Broad Ripple Park in company
with Samuel Olmstead. oscar Roberts and
Fred Monford. all Of whom went in bathing.
Fudge was unable to swim. and after being
urged to try. he consented to enter the
water. He stood upon the diving board,
and before jumping in told his companions
he could not swim and that they should
catch him.
He dived into the water, which at that
place is about ten 10 fifteen feet deep. His
carbohydrates watched for him to come
to the surface, but he did not. and after
he had been under the water a few minutes
they became alarmed and began diving for
him. They were unable TO find his BODY,
and the alarm was given at the bOathouse
of the Indianapolis Aquatic Club, several
members Of which hurried to the place
where the boy had gone down. They, too,
were unable to find the body by diving,
and at last barbed wire was brought into
service, by means of which the body was
brought to the surface. 1t was apparently
lifeless, but with the slightest cnance of
saving his life the body was taken on TO
the platform at the side of the river, and
there the men and several doctors worked
with the body for an hour and a half, but
without restoring life. The body was after
ward taken TO the large theater building TO
await the arrival of Undertakers tlanner
and Buchanan, who were called. n large
and curious crowd surrounded the DulldlnS-
PLACE NOT DANGEROUS.
The water was quite cold yesterday, and
this, together with the fact that Fudge
could not swim, is thought TO have been
instrumental in causing his death. His in
experience is thought TO have led him, when
contemplating the jump into the water, TO
expel the air from his lungs instead of
filling them with air. This would. Of course.
permit the lungs 10 easily fill with water
and keep him beneath the surface.
There was much common yesterday
about the river at the park being q danger
Gus place for swimmers, but members or
the Aquatic Club deny this, and refer to
the fact that nearly all persons who nave
been drowned there have been those who
were unable TO swim or those who were al
ficted with heart disease and were taken
with cramps Immediately upon entering
the water. The place where tudge was
drowned is Just below the bathing mouse.
He leaves his father and mother, with
whom he lived.

Mrs. Julia a. Cope, who lived at 612 North
Pine street. was found dead in the sum-
mer kitchen of her home yesterday morn
ing by Mrs. Martha Ashley, of 1902 Ash

20 spend the day. Mrs. Cope had been at
the home of Mrs. Ashley on Thursday.
and then it was agreed that Mrs. Ashley
should spend Sunday at the home of her
mothe
When she arrived at the house she found
all the doors and windows tightly fastened.
An inquiry of a neighbor brought out the
fact that Mrs. Cope had not been seen
since Friday night. and she was thought
TO be with her daughter. Fearful that
something had happened to her mother.
Mrs. Ashley climbed a fence and secured
entrance TO the summer kitchen, there
finding the dead body of Mrs. Cope. She
was attired in her night clothes. and it
IS supposed she had became i'll during the
night and went TO the kitchen for some

caused her death.
Mrs. Cope had lived alone for many years

Mr.. TAGGART ANNOYING
OTHER AMBITIOUS DEMOCRATS
HAVE TO AWAIT HIS PLEASURE.
Mr.. Bell and MIR. Appel Would Like to
Announce Candidacy for May
orally NOminatiOn.

1.-THE personality of the Democratic can
didate for mayor doesn't bother me in the
least" said a ~well-known politician yester-
day, for it's a very immaterial matter to
us this time who they nominate. 1t can
be Tom. John or Joe for all l care, but the
rub seems to be it can't be John or Joe
without Tom says So"
The above opinion, expressed by one in
different TO the Democratic situation, seems
TO obtain pretty generally, not only with
the rank and file of the Democratic party,
but also with those who are close TO the
throne. The fact that Mayor Taggart has
reiterated time and again that he would not
be a candidate, coupled with his refusal up
TO the present time 10 say that he would
decline the nomination if ii were thrust
upon him, has led some of the other am
bilious Democratic politicians to swear
softly in their coat sleeves at the doubtful
situation in which they find themselves.
1t is an unfortunate p-redicament, the
friends Of Joseph Z. Bell say, which forces
him 10 sit on the anxious seat while Mr..
Taggart makes up his mind whether he
will let the man OF his making publicly an
nounce himself rs an aspirant for his own
publicly, but it is said by his friends that
the willy mayor had better not tread too
often on q sore toe "A person VINO Is sup
posed 10 be very close 10 the assistant city
attorney was heard 10 say yesterday that
Bell would be a candidate whether he OBJ
tanned Mayor Taggarts permission or not.
"Taggart has had things his own way
long enough said this Democrat. and
we don't propose TO allow him to force our
candidate out Of the field" II is said by
others. however, that Bell doesn't like to
jeopaTdize his present position and that he
probably will await the masters signal. and
in the meantime il is generally understood
that he will keep his soreness under cover
and do his "cussin' =" in the back office.
MR.. APPEL'S CANDIDACY.
John j. Appel. who is another OF those
with an eye on Taggart's crown, is not so
backward as Mr.. Bell in his pursuit of
happiness. IL is understood that Mr.. Appel
is prepared TO meet all corners. including
the has-beens, those that are and those
that want TO be. The friends OF MIR. Appel
are already quietly effecting an oryaniza-
ton for their candidate. and say that un-
der no circumstances Will their candidate
withdraw. 1T is a strange thing. re-
marked one OF Mr.. Appels friends yester-

peen mentioned In the newspapers for the
Democratic nomination. witt the exception
OF Taggart, has. after a few days, been
quietly dropped OF course, we nave our
suspicious that this has been done under
the instructions of Taggart in order that
he may cause IL 10 appear that the party
Will have no other candidate but him, but
you can bet your bottom dollar that we will
fool him when the time comes if he should
be so foolish as TO be a candidate. There
is some talk OF a combination between Bell
and Appel whereby. in the event that Tag
CART is a candidate. the two viii endeavor
10 defeat him at the primaries by combining
their strength on the man who appears TO
be the strongest a week before the pri-
maries.
There is some conjecture as 10 what City
Chairman Fannin would do in the event
that there were other candidates in the field
besides Taggart. Ii is said by some that
Tanning if he were absolutely sure Tag
CART could be beaten. would Only be too
glad TO help DO the job. Others maintain
that he has long ago forgiven the indigni-
ties that Taggart heaped upon him and is
now his willing servant However this may.
be. il Is said that Taggart himself looks
upon Tanning with an uncertain eye and
would be slow 20 trust him in matters
which concerned his own political safety.
