PEOPLE AT The PARKS
HIGH-WATER MARK ATTENDANCE
REACHED IN INDIANAPOLIS.
The Day Was Hot and the Inhabitants
of the City Sought the Cool
Shades and Breezes.

Indianapolis reached the high-water mark
in the attendance at parks yesterday. All
day the car lines leading to the parks were
heavy with their human freight. A tenn
p~erature that lowered about 80 degrees all
afternoon. finally reaching 91.4 Ohe weather
man admitted this) shortly after 4 o'clock,
inspired them to seek cool places. Beside
those who sought the local parks, many
others went TO the woods about the city
and the suburban parks reached by the
in~terurban lines. The home crowd was
augmented by about fifteen thousand Wis
itors. OF this number about $500 came in
on the electric lines and the bulk was here
at an early hour.
Fairview Park broke its own record for
the season, even surprising the big crowd
1t held the Fourth of July. One-minute
service to this park was constant during
the day and night and every car was load
ed. The same was true of the cars for
Riverside, Garfield and Brookside parks
where unusual crowds were present. An
estimate of the attendance at the public
parks during the day mot including those
in the city and of small area) was as fol-
lows:

Those familiar with estimating such
crowds say that this total represents about
three-fourths of those who sought shaded
retreats. The day was one to weary of
the city heat for there was little wind and
what there was was dry and hot. without
promise of rain. The large attendance at
Military and Spades Place was due to the
popular band concerts which are given i'm
the afternoons. At Fairview the attend
ance was due to the many other attrac-
lions besides band concerts and the per
formances Of the Hagenbeck animals.
which were made free for the first time and
were witnessed by enormous crowds.
While Indianapolis was breaking her
home records in the parks the Union sta
ton was handling the greatest number of
persons 1t has handled on Sunday this sea-
son. The crowd was estimated at 1000. the
bulk of which was visiting the city. There
were fourteen incoming trains and seven
outgoing. TIL incoming excursions. all the
trains being loaded, were from Union CITY.

MORE MONEY FOR SCHOOLS
increase of $4,000 Over
Last Years Receipts.
MORE MONEY FOR SCHOOLS

The question Of keeping z public school
library open during the noon hour and
also during the supper hours was dis
cussed at the meeting of the board Of
education yesterday. The board met in
regular session in their rooms in the city
building at half past four in order to
allow the members TO attend the stan
ley meeting at night.
The discussion OF the library problem
vas brought on by a communication from
DR.. J. c. Miners. United States meat
inspector here. who in a letter, stated
that as the high school dismissed at half
past twelve each day and the library
was closed from twelve until two o'clock
il was a source of q waste of consider
able time a great deal of inconvenience
and allowed the students 10 loiter around
the streets. This was especially true of
those students who lived quite distance
from the center of the city and it was
also source Of considerable expense to
these students as they would have to
make an extra trip to the city II they
the library.
Dr. Horner stated that for some time
number Of complaints had come TO
him with the above pleas and he had
found that many clerks and wage-earners
Of the city found it impossible to use the
library, except they made a trip at night.
1t was closed during th> noon hour and
many could take advantage of the in
stitution If it was open during this hour.
Many people could not get books or re-
turn them unless they make a special
trip to the building at night
At present there is a librarian and an
assistant and during the discussion it
was found that both are in the library
the same hours and the members thought
It would be a good thing TO have the
library open continually during the day
and evening One person could take care
OF all the customers during the hours
when the library is not open. superin-
tendent Knight stated that he thought
it should be open al OF the time and
Mr.. Cossett suggested that it be kept
open from II a. m, until 9 p. m. as 1t
was believed that this arrangement would

matter was referred to the high school
and library committee and Will prob

The Hypatia club had asked for a con-
ference with the members Of the board
with regard to beautifying the buildings
and grounds Of the schools of the city.
The members of the club have some plan
which they desire to try next summer.
The board granted them a hearing for
the first meeting in November. but the
club notified them that they could not
be present yesterday.

OF the treasury. They found
the accounts correct, and were as fol-

CAUGHT IN HIS COON TRAP.
Saved His Life by Cutting Off His
Finger With a Barlow Knife.

LouisvIne Evening Post.
Silas Remey, who lives on Eh2rl'ne
River. in Mercer County, 8 famous
trapper. Monday Silas and ms httle son
spent all the afternoon setting traps along
the river cliffs and set their last one Just
at nightfaN. ..,
and most effective in catching cnuns. On
the river bank was a log tAdt every coon
that passed would visit, and here Silas
set his trap. An augur hole WAS bored
four long steel nails, as sharp pointed
as needles, were driven in at an angie
so that Mr.. Coon could thrust In ms
hand for the CrawtSh easily enough. gu;
not withdraw it because the points OF the
nails are like barbs that thrust into his
paw, and the harder ne pulls the deeper
the barbs stick into the flesh
So when Silas had set his trap, as it
was now almost dark, he thrust In MS
finger to feel the points. They seemed TO
be set about right, in fact, were set so
nicely that when ne tried to withdraw
his finger he was in Mr.. Coon plight eX-
actly. One of the barbs entered mis- nm
ehr and almost before he knew 1t all had
MIN tight The more he struggled the
deeper his baros sank into his flesh. This
was anything but Il laughing matter to
Silas. His old knife was too dull to
make any headway in cutting the nails
so after thinking the matter over he start
ed his little boy home with a lighted
lantern to get the pincers to pull out the
nails The boy made his way up the cum
lost his way, fell over rocks and logs
and extingushed the lantern. Unable to
get his bearing tine lad slept under a
ledge of rock and came near freezing to
death. Meanwhile Silas sat astGlde the

rapidly. 1t crept up reached the
lower end of the log.
AS daylight approached 1t began to
rock slightly and Silas knew an end was
floating. Higher and higher rose the
water. and Slas knew that if he washed
into the ut with tine log death was
certain. In : desperation he pulled his
dull barlow and literally sawed his finger
off above the middle joint, and the log
Heated away. In five minutes afterward
another trapper came along and found
him. He was so chilled that he was am
able to walk home alone.

RESISTING THE LAW.

The Richmond Times discusses recent
occurrence in Pittsburg where a negro
was lynched on Christmas day for kill
ing q policeman. and adds:
The negroes of Virginia propose to spend
a round sum of money IN hgnting the
Constitution. If they would spend the
same money in the interest of moral ed
ucation among their unruly brethren their
money would be very much better in
vested.
In this particular case the negroes were
drunk and disorderly and the policeman
was shot by one Of them who refused to
be arrested. In this he was sustained by
others. and in thus refusing to obey the
law, a crime was committed for which
one of the crowd was lynched.
This is one of the Unfortunate and re-
grettable sides of the negro character.
They. in a majority Of cases, seem to
think that any attempt to enforce the
laws of the land against them is an act
of oppression by the whites. and that
they are to be arrested and punished be-
cause they are negroes. This disposition
TO evade the law and to shield criminals
of their own race is, as The Times says,
zone of the worst phases of the negro
problem" and we may add that it is
one of the most unfortunate for them as
a race. When one OF them commits a
crime, whether it is rape or some minor
offence, all other negroes seem to think
1t a duty they owe their race to shield
him, and, if possible. prevent mis- arrest
They look on prosecution as persecution
and apparently think they ought to stand
together against The law as against a
comm en- enemy. 1t was this race spirit
which led to the killing and the lynching
at Pittsburs.

groes are spending money 10 invalidate
