The attending physician Dr. Henshaw

no broken bones and that he will sur

The accident is one of the most re-

brick which fell around him were
smashed to pieces, while the man new

He was given medical attention at

Here October 81.

fiths. consul general at Liverpool,
England, will visit the city and make
addresses Richmond will be includ-
ed in the Vice Presidents official
tour of the State on a special train
and announcement that he will speak
here will come as welcome sur
prise to the Republicans, as it was
not known until yesterday. Messrs.
Fairbanks and Griffiths will come to
Richmond from Muncie. Excursions
will be run to Richmond from vari-
Gus points.
There are hundreds of admirers of
the able and eloquent John l.. Crit
fiths in Richmond and they will take
great pleasure in giving him a cor
dial welcome to the city. Coming
fresh from his experiences abroad. he
will no doubt be more pleasing and
effective speaker than he has ever
been. Reports from abroad show
that MIR. Griffiths is immensely pop
ular at Liverpool and has received
signal honors through invitations to
deliver addresses and otherwise.
Republicans at Cambridge City
We're hopeful of getting Mr.. Fair
banks to speak at that place but ow-
ing to the fact that suitable train con

will send a large delegation to the.

Ride at Furious Pace in Effort
to Overtake Fellow Who
InSuIted School Girl.
WERE ENRAGED AND ARMED
FOLLOW THE BlCYCLIST TO THIS
CITY WHERE HE LOSES THEM
HELP THEM

Because a bicycle rider insulted his
sister-in-law, Ba,ska Pinnich, ten
year old school girl, Gaar Jackson yes
terday afternoon with neighbor far
mer chased the unknown man from
near Centerville to this city. The two
farmers were on horse back but they
could not overtake the bicycle rider.
They were armed and had he been
found he would have received rough
treatment. The local police are now
looking for the man, who is thought
to live here or being in hiding in
this city.
The little girl attended school at
the Culberson district school about
four miles west of her. She was hur-
rying home when the bicycle rider
rode up to her and although he harm
ed her in no manner, whatsoever
committed an act which was highly
indecent. On reaching home she told
her sister, Mrs. Jackson, who in turn
told her husband. He was very in
dignant and jumping on a horse, with
out saddle, and securing a revolver
he set out after the bicycle rider. He
was joined by a neighbor and they
rode at furious pace but could not
overtake the, fellow.
While on the country road they
could see him but when he reached
West Fifth street he lost his pur-
Suers. When Mr.. Jackson and his
partner reached police headquarters
to sLicit the help of the officers,
their horses were painting violently
and one of the riders had lost his
hat. The police have not been able
TO locate the bicycle rider, who was
described as being tall and a blonde.

After Secret Session Council
men Decide to Postpone
Passing Appropriation Bill
Over His Veto.
MEASURE INCLUDES $4,000
FOR THE CITY HOSPITAL
Matter of a Bond Issue OF
$4,000 to Improve Munich
pal Light Plant is to be
ReCOnSidered.

Before the regular session OF tho
city council last evening the council
men, members of the Board of Public
Works, Mayor Schillinger and City
Attorney T. j. Study met in secret
session in the city clerks Office The
result Of this pow WOW, or what the
subject under debate was remains
dark secret but it is known that after
council convened in regular session.
Councilman Deuker moved that the
ordinance passed at the last session
defray the expenses of the improve
ment of the Municipal Lighting and
Power plant be reconsidered This
motion was carried as was motion
made by Councilman Leftwiok to have
the ordinance laid on the table.
A Vote Two Weeks Hence.
What is thought to be another re-
suit of this secret session was the
passage of motion to have final ac-
ton on the appropriation ordinance
for the expenses of the city for the
ensuing year postponed until the next
council meeting. two weeks hence. At
the last council meeting in Septem-
ber this ordinance was returned to
council with the Mayors veto attach
ed. At that time 1t was decided to
postpone action on the ordinance un-
til the council meeting last night. 1t
was thought that the ordinance would
be passed over Mayor Schillinger's
veto and the decision of council TO
dodge the issue for two weeks more
came in the nature of n surprise. No
explanations were offered for the
move. 1t will be remembered that
Mayor Schillinger vetoed the ordin-
ance because it contained an appro-
priation of $4,000 for the city's share
in the support of the Reid Memorial
Hospital. Mayor Schillinger held
that this appropriation was illegal.

when the interested companies re-
built or improved their systems to

There are many conflicting reports
emanating from Indianapolis these

he has or has not done. The most re-
cent was to the effect that he had
purchased controlling interest in the

Whereas. Repeated failures of

have demonstrated the necessity of a
system by which such savings can
be made absolutely secure, and
Whereas, This question has been
solved in other countries by the in

which have proven to be effective in
encouraging thrift and economy
among the people. therefore be it
Resolved, That we favor the es-
of postal saving banks in
