 There used to be a popular minister in Indianapolis who was well known in Louisville. He was pastor of one of the leading churches of the city. He was built on the plan of the late Henry George, whose motto was, 'EI am for men, This Indianapolis preacher was what is called a good mixer" One day he stopped in blacksmith shop to chat with the workmen. Dur ing the. visit a f1orid faced man of prosperous appearance came into the shop. He and the minister began chatting, but neither knew the others line of business. They became good friends in a few minutes. Finally the forid faced man produced his card, which announced that he was in the saloon business on West street.
 Come down to my place any time" he said, and I'll show you a good tine.''

Ballinger's Counsel Propos- es to See What Part It Played In Pinchot Conser- vation Propaganda.
Especial from TTnjted Press


 Washington. March 5.-Just what est service played in spreading the Pinchot. Conservation propaganda, $ one of the points which Attorney T. J : Vertrees, counsel for Ballinger in tends to have made public before the Congressional Investigating Commit tee
 Former Forester Pinchot today produced a decision by the Attorney General under which he claims the newspaper campaign of the service was advertised despite the prohibi- ton in the last appropriation bill de- signed by. Congressmen to curtail the services press department.
 Inasmuch as Pinchot's idea of con- servation differs, according to his testimony, from that of Secretary Fallinger, Attorney Vertrees thinks maybe there may be some interest ing developments.
 Vertrees today requested subpoenas for the appearance before the com States Attorney at Seattle, and Spec ia1 Agent G. A. Parks. By the first witness counsel for Ballinger hopes to prove that the testimony given by Special Agent Jones and l.. 2. GIavis as to the latter's reason for not in St1tuting criminal prosecutions in the Alaskan coal cases, was false. Parks is called to prove the contention of the defense, that he accompanied the Federal Building when Glavis' pri- vate box was first discovered and he did not place therein the two Gun ringham letters, afterwards alleged to have been found in the box by Christiansen.

They stopped for long time on the bridge which crosses the lake to admire the wonderfully well kept banks, which slope down to the edge of the lake, with here and there some artisticaIly arranged shrubbery serving as a back ground. As they cast a last look at the island, situated at one end of the lake, which is so tiny one wonders how the large willow tree standing at the waters edge, with it's dropping branches hanging so low that they sweep backward and forward in the water with the wind, could possibly have grown there, one of the bachelor girls was beard to remark to her com panion, ''Wouldn't this-be an ideal place 10 bury ones husbands and come and weep over their graves!'- New York Press.

BOYS ESCAPE
Not Punished As Severely As Court Might Have
 Done
Especial from United Press.)

Bristol, Conn.,, March 5.-Edward Whiting and William Johnson, each about IS years old, arrested on a charge of b1ackmai1ing and securing from Theodore Biesburg S120 four separate occasions, were arraigned in police court today and fined $50 and costs which the parents paid. They were also placed on probation for six months.
 There was considerable discussion over the disposal of the case, many be- Heving the boys got off too "easy." Following a conference between attor- neys the prisoners were allowed to plead guilty to a charge of obtaining money under false pretenses instead of the b1ackmail charge which made it possible for the court to impose a lighter sentence.
 The boys parents promised to return the money obtained by the boys to Biesburg.

 Goodman forced the milling every step of the way and worried the East Side dentist by his cleverness. He ern- ployed a one-two jab with his left, following with a right counter that had Leach up in the air. That left landed with never failing regularity and Cross age in the fourth, when his left eye started to puff. It never stopped puff fling until the final bell.
 Phil Cross took all the honors of the evening for the Wallach family. He boxed Young Terry and strained half man out. That Terry was still his feet at the end of six rounds was due rather to his tough jaw than any fault of Phil punches.
