MEANS MUCH TO RICHMOND
Should the Company Purchase tt
Has Been Corresponding With
Receiver Kelley.

When the plant of the defunct
Richmond Canning company is offer
ed at public sale Thursday, March /,
one of the strongest bidders will be
a large canning factory of national
reputation which has its home Office
at Cincinnati. This company hopes to
secure the plant so that branch
concern can be located in this city.
The name of the company is with
held for business reasons.
A representative of this concern
was in Richmond about year ago
and CURED on buying ont the Rich
mond Canning company, but the deal
did not go through as the represen-
tative considered the plant to be too
small, a 4,500 feet floor space being
desired.
Since that time the officials of the
Cincinnati firm have evidently re-
considered for not long ago they in
quired of Attorney w. H. Kelley, re-
eeiver for the local company, wheth-
er the plant could be bought in at
private sale. Mr.. Kelley informed
them that it could but that the law
required that in ease it was put up
at private sale it must be sold at the
inventory price, which is $4,000.
The Cincinnati people thought
this price to be too high and stated
that they would make an attempt to
secure the property when it was sold
at auction, as they think it can be
purchased at better figure.
If this concern purchases the
Richmond Canning Company plant
and locates a branch Office in this
city it will mean a great deal to
Richmond as it will be substantial
and source of employment for
many people, principally girls. The
company asks no bonus for locating
in Richmond. The company has
branch offices in New York and Bos-
ton and cans corn, tomatoes, pears,
fruits of various kinds, prepared
meats, soups, etc.
One of the principal reasons the
company desires to establish a
branch office in a small city is be-
cause of the scarcity Of working
girls in cities the size of Cincinnati,
New York and Boston. They think
that there will be no difficulty in Sc
curing girls in Richmond

WILLIAM WAKING BROUGHT
SUIT FOR DIVORCE
Names Harry Bailey as Correspondent
Waking and Wife Were Mar
ried in May, 1904.

William Waking, a we'll known
business man Of this city who con-
duets bicycle and plumbing store
at 406 Main street, yesterday sued
his wife, Carrie Waking, for divorce.
He charges infidelity.
The grounds on which Waking is
seeking divorce are sensational and
furnish spicy reading. Waking al
leges that Mrs. Waking is entirely
too giddy and fond of the society of
other men. Waxing names Harry
Bailey as correspondent.
Mr.. and Mrs. Waking were mar
ried May 10, 1904, and have lived
together until recently when Wax

her improper conduct. The plaintiff
charges that Bailey met Mrs. Wax
ing at Wakin's home without his
knowledge and that on one occasion
the couple took trip together to In
dianapolis. Waking has retained
Henry I. Johnson as his attorney.

SHE MADE SIMPLE REQUEST
palladium Specially

Smithville, Ind, Feb. 9.-Miss
Emma Davis, principal of the grade
school at this place was viciously
assaulted by a pupil this afternoon
and was taken to her home uncon-
scious and thought to be dying.
William Siscoe, fifteen, was sitting
with his feet in the aisle and Miss
Davis asked him to place them un-
der the desk behind which he was
sitting. He jumped from his seat,
knocked the lady down and then
threw himself upon her and choked
her till she was blue in the face.
Frank Oldham and Chauncey
Wooder went to the lady's assistance
but when they pulled the Siscoe boy
off the teacher she was unable to re-
gain her feet. There is much excite
ment over the affair and the boy will
be prosecuted Miss Davis is in a
critical condition.

The question of consolidation of
the Retail Merchants Association
and the Commercial Club was con-
sidered last evening at the meeting
of the former organization and the
matter was referred to a committee
which will meet with a committee
from the Commercial Club next
week. 1t is more than probable that
the consolidation will be effected and
the united organization will be
known as the Richmond Board of
Trade.
A few days ago an agent repre-
senting the Yellowstone Park was in
the city and stated to Secretary
Scott that a special car was travel
ing over the country advertising the
park and that it would be in this
city March u. He desired to secure
large hall in this city so that views
of the great national park could be
shown and he expressed hope that
the Commercial Club and the Re-
tail Merchants Association would CO.
operate with the park agents in max
ing the exhibit a success.
AT the meeting last evening the
Retail Merchants Association decid-
ed to assist in the, affair. A commit
tee was appointed with E. j. Humpe
~ chairman. to make preparations
for the exhibit, which will be held
either at the Coliseum or the East
Main Street Friends church. 1t is
probable that the committee will de-
eide to charge a small admittance
fee, the proceeds to be given to the
Associated Charities.

worth's poems quotations to fit his
subject. "There are four divisions
of life being first, the babe; second,
the boy or girl; third, the youth, and
fourth, the grown man or woman,'
he said The class which graduated
from Garfield is just now entering
into the third division, or that of
youth, and the vision splendid will
now put in its appearance if it ever
does Some never receive this Wis
ion, others receive it and hold it, and
still others receive it but cast it
away. The Vision Splendid, itself,
is the proper conception of the prop
er life and is brought about by sew
eral mediums First among these
is the warning to be faithful in lit
tie things. Do not cast aside chances
which may appear insifnifcant
alongside those of someone else. Sec
ondly, strive after the vision. Try
TO live up to an ideal. Third, be nat
ural. Fourth, be yourself, do not as
sumo the likeness of anyone else
Fifth, be spiritually sensitive.''
In order to draw out the point of
the difference between lives where
the vision of splendid things has ap-
peared and the life in which it has
been thrown aside, Prof. Starbuck
compared the achievements of Carne-
gle and Yerkes. Carnegie, man with
millions, is a public benefactor, lead
ing life Of purity and himself an
embodiment of goodness and public
respect. Yerkes died with his mil
lions tied up between his wife and
another woman, and with a name of
having been the weakest morally, of
any man who ever had such opportu-

the State convention, as the matters
which will come before the district
meetings are all cut-and-dried and
nothing new will develop. The state
convention has the work of nominal
ing state Republican ticket for
next fall, and the different factions
of the party were anxious to secure
control.
The conventions throughout the
county, outside of Richmond, were
held yesterday afternoon. Last night
ward meetings were held in the city
and in some of them, there were
close contests. Franklin, Perry and
Washington townships did not make
their reports last night and delegates
from these places are not known.

RICHMOND MARKETS

Cabbage is bought heavily, with the
kraut season under full Roadway.
There is an idea that the Holland
seed cabbage is better than any other
kind and sales of this variety are un-
usually heavy. Supplies, however, are
full and there is not much upward
tendency to the market An advance
of 81 a ton is being asked over pre-
vious prices for the best stock, but
there is not enough of this on safe
to make the average price any higher
Domestic cabbage is in good demand
at steady prices.
