Action Against the City for
Damages Will Be Heard
At New Castle.
OPENING OF N. 14TH ST.
GARTsIDE WAS OFFERED 5000
BY THE CITY IN THE WAY OF
DAMAGES BUT HE DECLINED TO
ACCEPT THAT AMOUNT.

The much disputed question as to
whether or not the city of Richmond
shall pay VIM. n. Gartside $1,000 o.
less. for damages sustained by closing
North Fourteenth street. will probably
be decided by the Henry county cir
cult court next week, as the case Is
docketed to begin Monday. Attorneys
Robbins and Gardner will fight the
city's battle. while Attorney Thomas ].
Study will represent Gartside.
The whole squabble arose between
the city and Gartside because the old
board of works refused TO grant Cart
side more than $4,000 in the shape OF
damages when the board ordered clos
ed North Fourteenth street for the ben
eft of the Hoosier Seeding Machine
company. who desired the ground. that
they Nigh build upon it. Gartside.
who owns the Diamond Clamp and
Clasp factory, claimed that his prop
erty was greatly damaged by closing
the street.
The board of works first estimated
the damage at $2,50o. thinking Cart
side could not be affected more than
that amount. On the day of hearing.
however, Gartside appeared before the
board and demanded more money. He
was allowed $500. This did not sat
isfy him. and he Immediately. through
his attorney. T. J. Study, filed suit
against the city. in the Wayne circuit
court. 1t was then venued to the Hen
ry circuit court and for the first time
will be heard next Monday. Gartside
demands damages to the extent Of ST.
500. Both Attorney Robbins and Mr..
Gardner. who was the city attorney at
the time the North Fourteenth street
was closed. will fight to the last ditch
in the effort to win the suit.
All other parties were satisfied with
the damages awarded them by the
board of works at the time the street
was closed.

WEIGHING OF THE MAIL
Busy Week Begins at Post
office Saturday Night.
MEANS MUCH EXTRA WORK.

The busiest week in the history of
the local postoffice is expected to be-
gin next Saturday night at midnight,
when all classes of mail will have to
be weighed separately and a revenue
record kept. according to orders from
the head department at Washington
The work will entail much effort on
the part of all local postal attaches
and Clarence w. Foreman, extra clerk,
will be used to aid in the work. The
federal postal officials, knowing just
what the special weighing order
means, have given Postmaster Spek-
enhier instructions that for the period
Of the one weighing week. the use of
the back stamp can be discontinued.
Letters sent all over the United States
will bear no back stamp during the
one week. The discontinuance of the
stamp for the one weighing week will
save much labor and the clerks at the
local office are very glad the general
postal officials were kind enough to
think of saving them this trouble in
the rush of the other work

Large Assembly Heard His
Address at Grand Army

ATTUCKS LEAGUE AFFAIR.
GEORGE w. CONRAD WAS PRESI-
DENT OF THE GATHERING AND
MADE AN ELOQUENT TALK IN
PRESENTING Mr.. RIcHINGS.
(By dudge L. c. Abbott.)

1t was my privilege Tuesday night,
to attend the address of G. F. Richings,
illustrated by stereopticon views of
what the coiored people are doing and
have done, in an educational way.
Prof. Richings struck key note when
he said 1.-The bitterest foe of the ne
gro is a degraded white man." 1t is
and for generations has been the
truth wrote ten years ago men and
races never take their place until fit
ted for it, The Chrysalis never bursts
until wings are formed. The she'll
never breaks until the imprisoned
germ is ready. A Booker T. Washing
ton never comes until the race is eag-
er to listen. A Paul Lawrence Dun
bar never strikes his harp unit. the
quickened intelligence of his people is
bending forward to hear. No pride of
race should close our eyes tOthe fact,
that by our side, another race is strug-
Cling upward from a dark and gloomy
past, and is reaching out glad prayer
the football of hard destiny that race
is busy as bees in June. amid the
sweet fields of clover bloom, slipping
honey from every opening bud of
promise.
There was a great gathering of the
colored people in G. A. r. hall under
the auspices of the Crispus Attucks
league to listen to the address of Prof
Richings, in behalf of the Curry Nor
NAL and Industrial institute, destined
in the not distant future to be The

eloquent brief address in introducing

The path of 1t was climb round by

and complimented them upon their
success. The able speaker is much
gratified with his reception in this city
The wonderful progress made by the

MIKESALL WAS IN COURT
Could Not Pay Fine and Was
Sent to Jail.

William S. Mikesall, who, it is as
serted, has been under the influence of
drink for two weeks, was arrested by
Officer Yingling Tuesday night as he
was about to leave the city for Dayton
where he wished to secure work.
Mikesall, it seems, has lost several po-
sitions in Richmond owing to his con-
duct, and had about decided that the
best thing for him and his family
would be to go out of the city to Sc
cure work. He apprised his family of
this fact but they objected. Neverthe-
less he started to secure new employ
ment. He was assessed a fine of 81
and costs in the city court and as he
could secure no one to stay his fine he
will labor on Sheriff Meredith's stone
pile.

THREATENS TO REMOVE
SHOPS FROM BRADFORD
Pennsylvania Does Not Take
Kindly to Saloons.
WANTS THEM KEPT OUT.

The Pennsylvania railroad. it is as
serted in Richmond. has given author
tiles at Bradford. O., to understand
that if the saloons which were closed
there recently are allowed to again re-
sumo operations the road will remove
it's shops from that place. This is
done Notwithstanding the fact the
PENNSYLVANIA railroad was one among
several other Indiana railroads which
took out liquor retailing license at
the cost of 81 600, to do business on its
finer trains run through the state.

ALLEYS IN BAD CONDITION.

City Sanitary Inspector Young is
now scouting over the city in search
of information on its sanitary condi-
ton, preparatory to making recon-
mendations for a general clean up be-
fore the winter months arrive. It
seems that the people of Richmond
pay little heed to the orders requiring
all alleys to be kept clean and as the
result many of them now serve the
purpose of catchalls. The board OF
works will give a general cleanup"
order about the middle of October and
all alleys and streets will be cleaned
thoroughly.
