WAR VETERANS MEET AT
HOME OF ISAAC LITTLE.

Whitewater, Ind, March 5--Isaac
Little, veteran of the civil war, who
has not been able to venture out of
the house for several weeks on ac-
count of ill health, was the happy
center of a party of ten war veterans
last Thursday. BY arrangement they
gathered at his residence at Cox S
Mills for the purpose of spending the
day with him. A kettle of army baked
beans which was brought by the party
recalled the weary times and hard
ships of the war. The following vet
Grams were present: Isaac Little, age
~; John Addleman, age 20: John
Van SAINT, age &c; VIM. H. Addleman,
age 6S; Jerome Jordan, age 81; James
Benson, age 60; VIM. White, age GA
c. C. Saxton, age 90, and John Ruby,
age SO. All are eligible under the late
pension bill for an increase in pen
sion with the exception of C. c. Sax
ton and John Ruby.
The day was spent in a pleasant
manner and was greatly enjoyed by
all the old soldiers in relating and
talking over war time experiences.
None enjoyed the day more than Mr..
Little himself.

MISSING GIRL SEEN HERE
Relatives of Little Amelia Smith OF
logansport Believe She Was
Enticed from Home.

Amelia Smith the fourteen-year-old
girl, who is believed to have been alb
Quoted from her home in Logansport
on February 81, was seen in Richmond
Sunday by Officer McNally. He rec
ogniZed the girl as the one the LoganS-
port authorities are searching for by
description card with photograph re-
ceived at local headquarters yester-
day. Officer McNally investigated
at once and learned that the girl came
to Richmond from Elwood and left
here Sunday evening for Martins Fer
ry, 0. The Logansport police have
been notified and it is expected the
girl will soon be located. Officer Nc
Nally states that when he saw the
Smith girl she was seated in the
waiting room at the Panhandle sta
ton.
1t has been the impression in Lo-
gansport that the Smith girl had been
enticed from her home by an elderly
stranger whom she met at the Lo-
gansport interurban station. This in
formation was furnished the Logans-
port police by the girls sisters.

and lived with Mrs. Mary X. Lands,

SIX TO REFORM SCHOOL
RAYMOND BASS THE LAST.
Lad Tells the Court That His Father
Was a Thief and Was lynched by q
Mob in North CaroIina-mother DID
Not Shed a Tear.

Young Raymond Bass, the nine year
old unfortunate lad whose home
has principally been on the streets
since he was first able to walk, was
/ provided with home yesterday
Judge Fox heard the little colored
boys case yesterday in juvenile
court and then ordered that he be sent
to the reform school at Plainfield.
Raymond seemed to be pleased with
the courts action. The mother, Mrs.
Alice Bass. shed no tears as some
time ago she decided the best place
for the boy was at the reform school.
Says Father, Was Lynehed.
Young Bass confided the history of
his life to Sheriff Meredith and frank
ly confessed that he was thief. He
also stated that his father, George
Bass, had been lynched a few years
ago by mob in North Carolina. Ray
mond stated that he did not know
what his father had done but that he
fled from North Carolina and event
ually settled in Richmond. After re-
naming here some time he returned
to his old North Carolina home and
the reception committee that awaited
him was an angry mob with a hemp
rope.
Six in One Term.
Before hearing the case, Judge Fox
was somewhat loath to send Bass to
the reform school as he feared the Of
ficers of that institution might reach
conclusion that the local authorities
regarded the school as the exclusive
property of Wayne county. Judge Fox
stated that if Bass was sent to the
school he would be the sixth sent
there this term of court by Judge Fox.
Prosecutor Jessup stated that Bass
could not be received at Whites in
stitute and that - boy should be pro-
vided with some xsnd of a home. Il
do not regard him as a criminal: he
is just a poor little refugee" said the
prosecutor.

INDIANA YOUTH GOES
FAST PACE IN CHICAGO.

Chicago. March enlarged with
innumerable thefts, ranging from
trinkets to diamonds and fine jewel
ry. Richard Hopes, son of Ira G.
Hopes, prominent attorney of Ko-
komo Ind, is under arrest here.
Young Hopes, it seems, is a youth
full Raffles. Several weeks ago he
was dropped from the rolls of Lake
Forest university, where his parents
in Kokomo thought he was still in
attendance. The reason for his dis
missal was that he was a poor stu
dent The first informatio nthat
young Hopes was in trouble was CIV
en- the Lake Forest university Off
Gals and they expressed their sur
prise by this assertion: 1T seems
preposterous, said the assistant to
the president. -Other than being a
poor student, Hopes always con-
Quoted himself in good manner"
Hopes is a member of the Sigma Phi
Sigma fraternity and lived in that
chapter house while at Lake Forest.
He piled his work in homes of
the wealthy, and even went so far
as to enter into the home of Mrs.
ChatfieId Taylor For weeks the po-
lice have been trying to locate the
thief. but were always baffled. FL
nally some innocent remark made by
the young man was taken for n tip
and Hopes on being addressed as
the culprit, broke down and told all.
His father is coming from kokomo
to try to gain him his freedom. A
brother, Donald, is graduate ofn
Lake Forest and is now a newspaper
man at Madison Wisconsin. At ko-
komo Hopes family stands high So
cial1y and that city is greatly shocked
by news of the young mans fall.
Chief of Detectives O'Brien when
searching young Hopes room, found
nearly five hundred pieces of jewelry.

Greensboro is not idle. Coach Cakes

of sprained ankle, which he received
in the Earlham game. He hopes to be

Cold Water Process of Canning.

Wash the fruit thoroughly, and in case of rhubarb cut into small pieces as for pies. If gooseberries are used, top and tail them. Pack into glass jars that have been sterilized, then fill the jars to overfowing with freshly drawn water. Put on the covers and let them stand overnight. By the next morning, says the Circle, you will find that the fruit has taken up more or less of the water and that there is quite a vacuum to be filled. Drain off the water and fill again with fresh cold water to overfiowing, letting the water come with sufficient force to drive out any air. Then seal closely and put away for winter use.
