who became well known in the United
States during the Spanish American
war, will again appear on local chau-
tauqua platform. His lecture on the
subject, "The Worlds Struggle for
Blessings of Industrial Liberty" is
scheduled for o'clock this evening
and for several reasons he is assured
of large audience.
Captain Hobson, when in the city be-
fore. was more of drawing card be-
cause of the curiosity which people
hare 2s. well as elsewhere In the Unit
ed States manifested In him, due to
his daring and great achievement in
the sinking OF the Merrimac in the
harbor of Santiago de Cuba. Coupled
with this was the kissing incident at
st. Louis.
Now, however, the interest in him is
principally due to his lectures. 1t is
said that he is now one of the leading
chautauqua platform lecturers In the
country. The subject on which he
speaks this evening, attracts much at
tention. He arrived from Winona lake
in the afternoon.

ture into three parts. Thought. laugh
ter and tears constituted one division:
business, society and religion, the sec
ond. and mental and physical condi-
tions and the heart as the third divi-
sion. His conclusions were clear and
readily appreciated

Injunction Asked.
The city this afternoon Aled an In
junction petition in the Wayne cir
cult court asking the gas company be
restrained from using the natural gas
mains for artificial gas. alleging that
it is direct violation of the franchise
of the Richmond Natural Gas COM
pany.
Until there is a hearing on the In
junction the Light, Heat and Power
company will use the old gas mains
for artificial gas.
City Attorney Gardner says the con-
nection will not be violation of the
franchise but ii they run artificial gas
through the pipes it means they have
violated the natural gas franchise.
The conference between representa-
tives of the corporation and city was
stormy one and lasted for several
hours The L. H. and r contended
that it was to the benefit Of the peo-
pie of the city that the company
should use the old mains.
Public Makes Demand.
Schornstein declared that every
day many people were coming into the
office of the Light, Heat and Power
company, almost demanding that they
be furnished with gas.
"At first" declared Mr.. Schorn-
stein, I'VE thought we'd obey the or
der of the board because we had not
the least idea what demand for gas
there would be when the natural pro-
duct was cut OF. We could not con-
scientiously do otherwise.
The people did not know the situa-
tfon when they demanded that the
council and board of works restrain
the company from using these pipes. =
added Schornstein. Now when they
haven't any gas and we are not able
to put in gas for them for several
weeks or q month, unless the old
mains are used, they are beginning to
realize what it means. Why, Mayor
Zimmerman you are only inconyen-
fencing your own people" he conclud-
ed.
At first an attempt was made by the
city officials to hold the men making
the connection for the company in Jail
but after Attorney Robbins had de-
manded to know what their ofYense
was, and what their bond would be,
they were released By an order Of the
mayor.
Not Mayors Fault.
Mayor Zimmerman said 1t was not
his fault that the company has been
ordered not to use the old pipes. He
said the board Of works had been noti-
fed to do 20 by . practically unani-
nous vote from city council and the
had been 20 ordered by
their constituents
He declared that the company
would have to 'be brought to time, 9
some way, Tor the price OF gas here,
he said, was much higher than at any
other place and It should be lowered.

high price Of Eas In Richmond was the
