while there is much speculation as to
whether or not Hazard will make his
words good and thrust his head into
the lions jaws by coming here.
Hazard "Nervy" Man.
Hazard is known as the most
''nervy' man Henry County ever pro-
duced Time and again he has got into
close places, but has always managed
to slide out of them where others
would have suffered. To number of
people it would be no surprise to see
Hazard alight from train some day
this fall and walk boldly up the street,
and they would feel confident that he
had a card up his sleeve which would
free him of all his difficulties. Mean
time Sheriff Burr has in his office
large quantity of histories of Henry
County. and also other belongings OF
Hazard. which were seized as collat-
eral in suits which had been filed,
against him. The sheriffs office re-
sembles a second hand store, and,
when the books are sold, people will
be able to get a set of the histories
cheap. The work is an excellent one
and would have sold readily except
for the methods that were practlced
by the author.

His Bond Forfeited.

His bond was then declared forfeit
ed and suit is now pending in the
Circuit Court against Charles Mouch,
manufacturer who signed Hazard s
bond for $500 to recover the amount.
Hazard was at that time in the East
and said he was coming back. But
he did not The nearest he got to Hen
ry County was Logansport, when he
took a roundabout course to get from
the East to his old stamping grounds
in Tacoma, Wash, where he now is.
He has been visited by Henry county
people who made trips to the North
west
There is no money available for the
sheriff to go after Hazard and his
bondsman does not feel like putting
up any more money. The action to re-
cover the bond has not yet been set
for trial, but will in all probability be
called at the September term. Mean

HAZARD INSISTS HE

FORGERY CASES PENDING.

New Castle, Ind, July SIT will
come back to New Castle this fall,
and not in the custody of a sheriff. is
the message written to friend in this
city by George Hazard, now famous
as the author of the history of Henry
county.
For many months Hazard has not
been in this city. During his absence
his name has figured prominently in
papers at the court house, containing
the words forgery" and others
which are undesirable to the average
citizen.
Hazard was charged with forging
the name of Henry Brown, Moore
land banker to contract to pay $3.50
for a picture and biography in HaZ-
Yards history of Henry County. The
case was called at Rushville but Haz-
card failed to put in an appearance

FRIEND OF GIRL SUI

Colorado Coroner Had SUBJ
p0enaed A. R. Rumbaugh
In Matthews Case.
BODY FOUND IN A HOTEL.
HAD SENT TELEGRAMS FOR MISS
MATTHEWS TO CHICAGO MAN
NEW MYSTERIES IN THE
CASE.

Colorado Springs. Colo, July 81
Amos r. Rumbaugh of Washington,
| d. c., close friend of Miss Laura
Matthews. the young woman who COM
day night, added horror to mystery to
the grewsome case, by shooting himself
Tuesday afternoon in the same man
ner as Miss Matthews, dying later in
the hospital.
Rumbaugh committed the act in his
room at the Alta Vista hotel. The
hour when the fatal shot was heard IS
not known, as it was not heard by
any one in the hotel. The deed was
discovered only when officers went to
his room to ascertain why he had not
responded to the subpoena to attend
the coroner's inquest over Miss Mat
thews body today.
When the officers appeared at the
hotel a bell boy was sent to Rum
baugh's room to see what was the mat
ter The boy found the door locked
and could get no response. The Off
GERS asked that the door be opened,
but the key was on the inside. An Of
ficer was boosted up to the transom
and saw the mans condition.
That the act of Rumbaugh was the
direct result of the death of Miss Mat
thews is not doubted. The officers have
not yet had time to examine Rum
baugh's papers and effects. and the cor
oner has had his room locked. If
Rumbaugh did not destroy the letter
left him by Miss Matthews together
with the letter to Coey. it is believed
they will show startling facts.
The telegram sent by Rumbaugh to
Coey. taken in the light of his suicide
has more meaning than before. 1t was
as follows:
Laura committed suicide on ac-
count of you. Letters left behind.

With the thoughts of the ''old swim

Richmond's small boys are not ready
yet to think of school, but the an
nouncement made that the 19O7-190S
sessions of the Richmond public
schools would convene September 10,

pleasures This is several weeks off.

small girl who dislike to leave their
summer amusements for the cherries

time to enjoy themselves thoroughly.
There has been a small sized agitation
to resume the school sessions Septem-
Der .. but it is the general opinion
among those connected with the
schools in this city, that this is too ear
~ and consequently the doors leading
to the educational institutions will not
be thrown open until a week later.

Local Automobiles Agree 1t
Was the Proper Course
To Pursue.
NO ROAD FOR SPEEDWAY.
OFFICER SAYS THAT SUCH A
PLAN SHOULD NOT EVEN BE
CONSIDERED INSIDE THE COR
PORATION LIMITS.

Local Automobiles do not criticize
the action of the police in arresting
the secretary of their club. Walker
Land, for speeding on South Twelfth
street. The concensus of opinion is
that If Land were speeding he should
have been punished. as it is danger
GUS to go over the streets of Rich
mond at the rate of speed with which
Land is said TO have been driving
the Robbins car.
A local officer of the automobile
club states that not under any cir
cumstances should a street in Rich
mond be turned over for the benefit
of the automobilists, as it is too dan
gerous to speed in the city. He said
that automobilists at ali times should
keep within the speed limit in town.
If they wished to send their cars
over the road at a greater rate of
speed than was lawful they should
go to the country and even at that
time should not speed their cars if
the road were not absolutely clear.
There are many sections of road sur
rounding Richmond which are easily
accessible, where there would be no
objections registered, if the autoists
drove their cars at great speed. and
these stretches of road should be
sought out.
Although not countenancing the
laws violations at the hands of the
automobilists, this officer stated that
the automobile drivers should not be
Disseminated against. He stated
that there was a law regulating the
speed of automobiles to fifteen miles
an hour in town, while the interur-
bans were supposed to run twelve
miles an hour. Not once has he seen
an automobile go around street car |
In the city OF Richmond. he says, |
even though the machine was strain
Ing the speed limit law. If the auto
mobilists are to be arrested for break
Ing the anti-speed ordinances, so
should the street cars, was the opin-
lon expressed by the officer
