HE GETS A JUDGMENT.
Oriental Lecturer Wins n Case In
Justice StOut's Court.

The exhibition of Indian magic furnished
a large audience in English's Opera House
on Sunday night, Nov. 9 was recalled
yesterday by a Judgment given to F. z.
Smith in Justice Stouts court. Smith was
the manager of the Metropolitan Amuse-
ment Company, under whose auspices the
Oriental show was given. He was the an
nouncer and it was from his lecture at the
beginning of the show that the audience
learned of the history of the "Paba" anc
Princess of India who afterward fur
nished amusement to them. The show did
not last through the time expected and
was ended suddenly by the illness of the
princess. After the performance the audi
ence congregated in the alley, back of the
theater, until the police dispersed it, and
there were shouts and calls for Vengence
on the "Paba,' whom they dubbed the
'powwow"
From the testimony by which Smith was
granted a judgment for $14.2 for services
rendered manager of the show, il was
learned that the mysterious "Paba' and
the Princess were Frank Davis and his
wife Smith, who was the lecturer and
announcer and master of ceremonies,
claimed that he did not get his full share
of the receipts and hence brought suit
During the trial it developed that he was
partially compensated for his work by the
donation of a pair of trousers valued at
So but which, he insisted. were only worth
$3.50 When ii was suggested that his
makeup for his lecturing lines poor
ard that his mutton-chop whiskers got out
of place. 10 the amusement of the specta-
tors and the discontinue of the "Paba -
and the Princess, Smith Indignantly de-
MED it, Smiths salary was to be 500 a

FINE APPLES in INDIANA
HORTICULTURIsTs PROUD OF THE
STATES ANNUAL CROP.
Meeting of Fruit and Flower Growers
of Unusual Interest This Year
Contest for Prizes.

The finest apples raised in the world are
raised right here in Indiana is the proud
boast of state fruit growers who are hav-
ing their annual exhibition of orchard and
garden products at the Statehouse. A Wis.,
itor to the annual meeting of the Indiana
Horticultural Society cannot dispute the
claim after looking at the magnificent ap-
pies and pears lying in rosy-cheeked beauty
on plates awaiting the critical eye of the
judges. All sorts of apples are there, as
we'll as other kinds of fruit. Apples as big
cocoanut, red. green and striped. are
so common that experienced fruit growers
turn up their noses at anything less than
an apple the size of a small pumpkin. In
point of attendance, interest manifested
and quality of displays the exhibition is SUI
perior to any of recent years.
The meeting began yesterday afternoon at
100 o'clock. when w. w. Stevens, presi-
dent of the association. called for order. The
invocation was delivered by the Rev.
George Schmidt. The morning session was
spent by members in comparing notes and
dent Stevens read his annual address, re-
viewing the steady growth of the society
and calling attention to its value as an
best fruit in the world, In some kinds, is
grown in Indiana President Stevens said
and particularly is this true in apple Gull
ture. Indiana has always been famous as
an apple State, but of late years scientific
methods and renewed interest has added
even more to its laurels. The association
is in healthy condition, President Stevens
said.
OLD METHODS DISCARDED.
People are demanding better fruit now
than ever before, he said. and people should
discard old-fashioned methods and learn
new things about eradicating pests that ruin
apple crops. Farmers raise little more
than enough for their own use, he declared,
and il to be now that the horti-
culturists will have to grow fruit for the
market. President Stevens recommended
for an Indiana fruit exhibit at the st. Louis
exhibition.
Reports of the secretary and treasurer
followed, and Sylvester Johnson, of this
Purdue University in fruit growing. Sixty
eight students took work in horticulture
last year, he said, and the new building
just completed will give an impetus to the
study.
Professor James Troop, state entomolo-
gist, submitted report to the association.
and w. II. Freeman secretary of the State
Board of Forestry, talked of the relation
of forestry to fruit growing.
AT the evening session Miss McCalliSter.
of Markleville, gave several recitations, and
William II. Barnes made a general talk on
horticulture. Mrs Sylvester Johnson, of
Irvington, talked on Women in Horticul-
ture and Horticulture" The addresses were
discussed in short talks by the members.
The annual meeting of the association will

STUTESMAN'S NAME USED.
He Will Not, However, be n Candidate
for the Speakership.

An afternoon paper yesterday published
a story TO the effect that James +. Suites
man, of Peru, was laying his plans to be-
come candidate for speaker of the House
at the eleventh hour, and that he had held
a conference with w. G. Sayre, of Wa,
bash. and other members of the House. at
Peru, Tuesday, inferring that he was
sounding his way toward entering the
speakership race
The Peru conference was meeting of
the representatives of the Eleventh dis
trict, called by Warren G.. Sayre, who has
been an avowed candidate for the speaker
ship for some weeks. In sending out his
letters inviting the members TO the con-
ference Mr.. Sayre said that his object was
solely to get the members together TO get
acquainted before the session opens. He
indicated that the speakership question was
not to be preached.
What developed at the meeting has not
been given out but in view of Mr. Suites
mans emphatic declaration that he is not
and will not be a candidate for speaker.
and, on the contrary is lending his support
to Henry w. Marshall. of Lafayette, it is
altogether probable that If any speakership
aspirations were aired they belonged to
the gentleman from Wabash, not to him
of Miami.
