Notes
BY T. C.. II.

Regular monthly meeting of the post
last evening.
A movement has been started by
the T. p. A.. the Y NJ. C. A. and the
Chautauqua authorities that will have
as its aim the procuring of Homer T
Wilson, national chaplain of the T. P
A. to appear during the coming Chau-
tauqua. Mr.. Wilson is a great favor
lite in T. p. A. circles and never fails
to please the boys whenever they hear
him speak at the national conventions.
He is a very pleasant entertainer and
a foreeful speaker. II he can be Sc
cured for one day at the Chautauaua
the T. p. AS will set aside that day as
T. P. A. Day. and will turn out in
great numbers. Every member is anx-
ious to have our national chaplain in
Richmond this year.
What if Hegger would stop talking
day or two.
Every T. P. A. member should take
notice of the new Pennsylvania rail-
road schedule that goes into effect to-
day. Several changes are made in the
time OF trains and some of a radical ma
ture. Every member of the post using
these lines should secure a new time
card at the depot.
Elmer Lebo was seen early yesterday
morning by the chairman of the sick
and relief committee, Roy Brown, 60
ing home with a large can of paint
and brush large enough to duty as
Taft's whitewash brush. Roy became
suspicious at once and began an in
vestigation. He learned that our ex-
president was about to paint his house.
To the chairman of the sick and re-
lief committee that was a case for
immediate action and attention. He
at once got into communication with
the hospital and arranged to have the
ambulance call at Lebo's house at 10
a. m. He soon figured that would be
the time Elmer would be laid out
judging from the size of the brush At
nurses appeared at the home of Lebo
and search was made for the new
house painter. They could see no
signs of paint having been applied to
any partof the house. The front steps
were pulled out and the porch floor
looked as if it had been scrubbed WE'LL
They cautiously made their way to
the back yard and there found Elmer
stretched out on the grass looking like
a newly painted Indian cigar sign.
Mrs. Lebo was working over him,
greatly excited and heartily welcomed
the sick committee. Roy at once took
the case in charge and found Elmer suf-
fering from a bad case of painters
collie. He was given all the first aid
remedies, and recovered sufficiently to
tell the tale. He said that he had add
ed large quantity of oil to his paint
as he wanted it to go as far as posi-
Bile and had gotten it very thin. That
accounted for the scrubbed appear
ance of the porch. Lebo is expected to
recover shortly.
Arch Street formerly of this city is
in Richmond for a few days visit. He
is now connected with the Schneider
& Mueller Piano Co., of Sioux City,
Iowa, as manager of their store. Arch

reports conditions as very favorable
in that section of the country. He will
return to Sioux City after few days
spent visiting in and around Rich
mond.
AL Mendenhall has received written
instructions from the hotel people of
FIT. Wayne giving detailed instructions
regarding the location of electric light

ing of the U. c. T. at Vincennes last
