telegram from the war department
i'll Washington authorizing him TO en-
list ten Richmond men TO serve in the
23rd New York infantry at the James
town exposition.

city, because in the past the quality of
men enlisting for service in the United

of the best. and it was thus that the

At Least Four Will Be Aband-
oned in Wayne Township as
A Result of the Recent
Legislatures Work.
TOTAL IN COUNTY
is PROBABLY Fifteen.
ConveyanceS Must Be Provid-
ed for Pupils in Districts
Affected-There Will Also
Be Fewer Road Districts.

For several years there have been
fifteen district schools in Wayne
township. The next school year, be-
ginning September next, there will
only be eleven schools in the town
ship. The abandonment of four
schools has been made necessary by q
law passed at the last session of the
legislature which made it compulsory
for township trustees to abandon all
schools where the average daily at
tendance for the past year was twelve
or fewer. Under this new law it is
optional with the trustees to abandon
schools showing an average daily at
tendance the past year of not fewer
than twelve pupils or more than fif-
teen pupils.
1t is not known at the present time
what schools in THIS township will be
abandoned, as the final reports of the
teachers of the various schools have
not been received. Superintendent
Charles Jordan of the county schools.
states that he estimates the new school
law will necessitate the abandonment
of about fifteen schools in this county.
Must Provide conveyances.
Pupils living in districts where the
schools have been abandoned. will be
sent to the nearest school in hacks, the
township paying the expenses for
maintaining these hacks. The reduc-
ton of school districts resulted from
the law passed at the last session OF
the legislature, increasing the salaries
of school teachers The object in
view was to reduce school expenses,
but it is the general impression of the
trustees and teachers of this county.
that the expense of operating hacks
will equal the money saved by the re-
duction of the number of schools
Fewer Road Districts.
Trustee Charles Potter of Wayne
township, states that under a law pass
ed at the last session of the legislature
it will also be necessary for him 10
reduce the number of road districts in
this township. This township eo.a-
prises % square miles and at the pres
ent time there are seven road dis
triets. Under the new law all town.
ships having SO or more miles Of ter
ritory are limited to six road districts.
Mr.. Potter will make arrangements at
once to reduce and TeappoTtion his dis
frfcts.

Edward EIIabarger Spurns
Lawyers and Deals Direct
Iy With c., c. & L.
WAS HURT A YEAR AGO.
UNUSUAL CASE OF A MAN WHO
BELIEVES A RAILROAD CON-
PANY WILL SETTLE JUSTLY
WITH HIM.

In Edward Ellabarger, Richmond
has an unusual ease of a man injured
badly in a railroad wreck who has
never brought suit against the rail
road company, and yet has never re,
ceived any damages from the company
for his injuries.
Mr. Ellabarger was hurt in the wreck
of the Red Mems special on the c., C..
& L., over a year ago. He was per-
haps the worst injured of any and is
now compelled to use a cane. Many
of those injured in the accident set
tied with the company soon after the
wreck and others who brought suit
compromised their cases.
Although sought by lawyers to bring
action against the g. c. & L.. Mr.. FL
labarger never did so and although
he was approached by the roads claim
agent, he spurned his efforts to settle.
Settlement Is Likely.
Instead of jumping at an early
chance to get some money from the
railroad company. and instead of put
tlHR Tic uldtttI III lHc HduOo Vi oil at
torney. Mr.. Ellabarger is waiting and
dealing directly with one of the head
officials of the c., c. & L. Mr.. Ella
barger has his idea of how much he
was damaged by the wreck and the
company has its. Both are friendly
in their attitude and an amicable set
tlement is likely at an early date.
When it is made Mr.. Ellabarger says
it will be he and not the lawyers or
the courts which will profit.
The injured man has most sensible
explanation of the stand he has taken.
You see, the railroads are much i'm
posed on he said in talking of the
matter. lots of times they are held
up. You can't blame the claim agents
for settling for as little as possible.
That is their business As for the
lawyers. their first point is to get their
fee and figure that a man with ordi-
nary intelligence can come to an agree
ment with a railroad company about
as readily as paid hireling who
fights by means of law suit

many ATTEND FUNERAL
Exact Cause of Miss Floods
Death Unknown.
TWO OPINIONS ARE HELD.

Dublin, Ind. April 22.-The funeral
of Miss Leona Flood. who was asphixi-
ated at her home last week took place
Sunday afternoon and was we'll at
tended. The exact cause of Miss
Floods death will perhaps never be
known. There was so much excite
inent on finding her body that the cir
Cumstances attending death are not
fully clear. Some say death resulted
from the woman breathing the fumes
from burning gas stove, while others
say the gas jet was not fully turned
off after the light had been put out.
Miss Flood had finished a washing on
the day before her body was found.
and it IS thought she was so fatigued
that she was careless in attending to
the gas.

PROF. RICHTER MOVES
UP TO SECOND PLACE.

Several Days-ConteSt Is
More Exciting Than Ever.

Richmond today regained her pres
tige in the jamestown contest, when
Elizabeth Sands, of the Starr school,
went above Miss Elizabeth Lashley, OF
Centerville. The Misses Sands and
Lashley are hard after the jamestown
trip privilege, not to say anything of
several more women teachers, and the
race gives every Indication of being
the best of any.
The contest is developing into 9
good natured affair out of which the
candidates are getting ali kinds of
fun. One teacher today said: Il
would like to go to jamestown and in
tend 70 make hard fight for it. Ii
am beaten. however. | wont regret the
effort for | am enjoying the race

dates CoTe up and down and get much

The same fever is catching all con-
nected with the contest. Even the
contest editor can hardly wait till the
count for the day is made. The affair
has now reached a point where one
cannot tell what a day will bring forth
and there is real enjoyment in watch
ing the candidates run.
Prof. Richter Is Second.

An event of great deal of interest
in the woman clerks race was Miss

She jumped from less than a hundred
to 3,TOO. The other races can be fol-
lowed best by looking at the vote.
A mistake was made in Sundays

Big Railroad Lines Are Not
Inclined to Comply with Ger
tain of the Indiana Stat
uteS.
| BASE THIS ATTITUDE
ON INTERSTATE GROUND.
Up to This Time the TWo-Cent
Measure Is the Only One
That Is Being Observed
Complaints Are Made.

Indianapolis, Ind. April 22.-From
comes the positive declaration that the
big railroads having lines traversing
Indiana will absolutely ignore most of
the legislation enacted by the last
general assembly, for the purpose of
curbing the transportation companies.
Refusal to comply with the new laws
and to obey their provisions will be
grounded on the contention that the
statutes affect interstate traffic.
/ There is no doubt that the railroads
are hard hit by the legislature. hard
er than ever before and harder than
the carriers were hit by legislatures
| of other states. It became apparent
early in the session that any bill aimed
at the railroads would have a splendid
chance of becoming a law. AS result
of the anti-railroad sentiment there
were spread on the statute books the
2-cent fare law, the full crew. and
sixteen hour laws, a law requiring a
81 900 license for selling liquor on
trains within the boundaries of the
state, the shippers law, regulating the
question of Car service, the railroad
commission enforcement law, giving
railroad commission almost absolute
control of the railroads with all the
power needed to enforce its orders and
rules, ETC., etc.
Complaint to Commission.
Complaint has already been laid be-
fore the railroad commission that the
big roads of the state are ignoring the
full crew. law, which provides for an
extra member of a freight crew, to act
as flagman on all trains composed of
more than fifty cars. The complaint
came from the brotherhood of locomo
tive trainmen, which was responsible
for the enactment of the law and also
