1t Has Been Suggested as a
Proper Thing for the
Richmond Schools.
BOARD TO CONSIDER 1T.
PROF. JAMES SPEED, WHO MADE
SUCH A FAVORABLE IMPRESS
ION AT THE RICHMOND CHAU-
TAUQUA, MAY COME.

1t is probable that nature study will
be provided i'm the public schools of
Richmond this winter. James Speed,
who gave a series of lectures at the
first and second chautaGquas. has pre-
pared a course of nature study for
children, which he gave last year for
the first time and which is proving
wonderfully popular. Manager Shaw
has told Supt Mott about the work
and the school board will be asked to
consider bringing Prof. Speed here.
Prof. Speed generally takes two
weeks to a city of Richmond's size.
He spends a day at each school, COM
bining two grades when giving his lee
ture. During his stay in a city he has
meetings of all the students in the
city at different times and gives stere-
opticon lectures. For these he charg-
es five cents. which amount goes to
the school board, practically making
Prof Speeds work self-supporting.
Prof. Speed is a naturalist OF the
first rank and his manner of present
ing his material is most pleasing.
Those who heard him when he was at
the Richmond chautauqua were
charmed with his work and IL the
school board should secure him for
the children it would no doubt prove
a popular move.

ESCAPE ANTITRUST
LAW BY THE ACTION
Milk Dealers Do Not Put Their
Names to Agreement.
PRICES GO UP SUNDAY

The advance in the price of milk
and cream in Richmond becomes eff
fective Sunday and today the milk
mems customers tried TO buy tickets in
quantities ranging from dollar to
ten Trustlike, however, the milk
men refused to sell large lots of tick
cts at the old price. Dairymen say
that it was really amusing today, the
number of small customers who want
ed to load up with tickets at the pres
ent rate. 1t is said that all the dairy
men in the city have entered into the
agreement to raise prices except two
and these are small dairies and are not
expected to cut much figure. The
dairymen met in the Commercial club
rooms and although some objected TO
signing an agreement to raise the price
of milk, they all gave their word to
keep the price at the advanced figure.

MOVEMENT NOW ON
They Have Asked SaIooniStS of
The State to Keep Closed
On Sunday.
LIQUOR INTERESTS UNITE.
THEY HOPE TO PROFIT BY GET
TING THE LIQUOR DEALERS OF
INDIANA TO VOLUNTARILY OB-
SERVE THE LAW

Indianapolis, Aug. 31-At a meeting
of the brewers doing business in In
dianapolis resolution was offered and
adopted requesting all of the saloons
in Indianapolis and Indiana to observe
the Sunday closing law. The resolu
ton set forth that the brewers will co
operate with the police in the various
cities in seeing that the saloons are
kept closed.
The saloonkeepers and bartenders
also favor the closing of the saloons on
Sunday. The Knights of Fidelity, an
organization of saloon men, will hold
a meeting, probably next week, for the
purpose of adopting similar resolu-
ton. According to announcements
made by local brewers an effort will be
made to put a Sunday closing compact
into effect next Sunday. The brew
ers will at that time make it a point
to inform the police of any saloon that
remains open.
The conclusion to sign reform
agreement was reached by the brew
ers at a meeting held at the Denison
last week The brewers admit they
realize that some action must be taken
to counteract the growing sentiment
against saloons, especially in the resi-
dence districts of the cities and towns.

Jesse Kellum, lad who is employed
as farm hand by Little. was also
accused of mistreating the horse but
the charge against him was dismiss

workers are still held in the debris at
the bottom of the river. A roll call

Twenty-nine Indians and nineteen
