TATION, SAYS GARDENER.
Official Of Illinois Central Railroad
Sees Practical Side Of
Question.

William Keller. chief gardener OF
the Louisville division OF the Illinois
Central is in the city looking after
the depot lawn and flower beds. Mr..
Keller thinks that flowers promote
sanitation. when you have nice
flower beds and lawns to beauty
stations and railroad property. 1t cre-
ates an interest to generally beautIfy
the property. Unsightly objects fast
disappear and the premisesare clean
ed and kept clean in order that the
flowers may not contrast with the
buildings" Mr.. Keller stated. Since
the Illinois Central began Its cam
paign for better sanitation the flow
ers have helped In the work more
than anything. IL is a great factor
in lettering sanitation evcrywhcro.
and the action of the city in tearing
away fences, identifying lawns and
premises will result In a general bat-
terment Of sanitation"

HAIL HAAKON VII,
KING OF NORWAY
Great Crowd in Old Capital
of Kingdom Today.
First Monarch Crowned There in
Four Hundred lcars-Ccrc-

ALL NATIONS REPRESENTED.

Trondhjem, June 22.- With a
ceremonial modified from the old
Morse forms to meet the modern
democratic spirit of the country,
King Haakon VII and Queen Maud
at noon today in old Trondhjem ca
thedral were Amounted, blessed and
given Norways crowns. When nearly
forty years ago King Oscar Of Swe-
den received the crown he barred his
breast and ecclesiastics crossed Il
with sacred oils according to the GUS
tom of older days. Haakon was an
nointed only on the forehead and
wrists, and the entire rite was simp-
Ter. The king and queen entered the
cathedral at 1 l O'Clock. KIM Haakon
was crowned first and Queen Maud
afterward with practically the same
ceremony. There were 1000 persons
present that number representing
the capacity OF the edifice
The ceremony was of great histor-
zeal interest, as Haakon is the first
ruler Norway has had to itself in
400 years, Norway having been bound
with either Sweden or Denmark since
the fourteenth century.
The coronation was a grand affair.
An immense crowd of people was
present. almost all European coun-
tries being represented. 1t was al
most impossible TO pass along the
streets. The city is beautifully deco
rated, as are the foreign warships in
the harbor.
King Haakon and Queen Maud
drove to the cathedral. The process
sion consisted OF five carriages.
when the edifice was reached they
were met by three bishops and tho
coronation ceremony was performed

indianapolis. June 22.-Ernest and
Walter Carruth, brothers, were SEN
fenced today to from 2 to Ia years
in prison for working a peculiar fraud
on the street car company. Walter
can throw his ankle out OF joint at
will, and the scheme of the brothers
was for Walter to fall from a car and
then claim damages for alleged in
iuries to his ankle. Street car COM

frauded by the scheme. Suspicion
was aroused when damages we're de-
manded of the local company, and
clever detective work ended in show
