AN OUTLAW HUNT
IN INDIANA ENDS
Man Who Killed Alexandria
Policeman Surrenders to
a Posse Today.
(American News Service)

Elwood. Ind, March 6.-Jim Walk
er, one of the bandits who killed Po-
liceman kirkman and perhaps fatally
wounded Chief of Police Ellis of Al
exandria, Ind, surrendered early to-
day TO posse which surrounded him
in the Monticello school house in the
hills near here. Walkers ammuni-
ton was exhausted. He was taken to
Alexandria where his companion, Ru-
fus Warren is already imprisoned.
Late Saturday night when Mrs. ].
c. Brattain and some friends were
passing the pawnshop Of w. w. Miller
at Alexandria they saw two men, one
on the sidewalk and one in the shop.
The latter's face was covered with a
handkerchief and he was pointing a
revolver at Miller.
Women Notify the Police.
The women went to the hotel oppo
site and telephoned the police, Pa
trolmen Kirkman and Stokes respond
ed When the robber in the shop
saw the police he began shooting. Sew
eral of the bullets hit Kirkman. The
men then fled with Stokes in pursuit
firing his revolver.
Police from surrounding cities and
the sheriff and posse with the Alex
andria officers, chased the robbers to
the river bottoms. Rufus Warren one
OF the robbers was captured. When
it became known that young Kirkman
who was only %, and had been a po-
liceman only a short time, had died.
the anger of the Alexandria citizens
increased. In order to protect War
rem, he was hurried to the county Jail
at Anderson.
The other robber, Jim Walker, fed
to the western part of town, where he
barricaded himself in an empty house.
Shots were exchanged for some time,
when Walker escaped through a back
window-not however, before he had
shot Chief of Police Ellis through the
stomach. Walker was wounded.
Bloodhounds from indianapolis were
then secured from indianapolis to
hunt the robber.
Walker sent word from a barn in
the country near Orestes that he
would surrender if promised immuni-
ty from violence, but when the police
arrived there he had flown. Early on
Sunday he appeared at the Office of a
doctor in Orestes to have his wounds
dressed, but was refused attention.
Miller, the pawbroker gave the rob-
Der $50 at the point Of his revolver,
and if the officers had not arrived pro-
badly would have lost all his dia-
monds.

WOULD FLASH WARNINGS
In CITY "MOVEY" HOUSES

Moving picture theatre managers
will have a suggestion presented 20
them in the near future by City Coun-
Gil. IL is by Chairman Conner of the
fire committee and if adopted will be
a precautionary move which may at
any time result in the saving of lives.
This is the throwing on the screen
prior to the showing Of the rels of a
notice calling attention of the pa
irons to the exits and their locations.
At present warning signs are posted
in the theatres but as there are always
shown an advertisement before the
show begins, the warning could be
painted on that screen at practically
no expense. II is the opinion of Coun-
Gil that the notices should warn the
people to remain cool and not STAN
pede for tho doorways in case of fire.
City Council has no authority to en-
force the suggestion but they believe
that the managers of the "moveys"
will adopt 1t.

WOMEN FIT FOR BUSINESS.
Cincinnati Women Doctors Don't
Agree with Those of New York.

Cincinnati Women Doctors Don't
Agree with Those of New York.
CINCINNATI, Sept, S.-Dr. Louise
Southgate, member of the Cincinnati
Women's Club, does not agree with
DR.. Eugenia Hancock and Dr. Martha
Lowell of New York that women are
naturally unsuited to the business
world and that a business life ages
them early.
STUDY the farmers wife, who GER
tainly leads a domestic life, if you
want to find the woman who is worn
out at 35 or 40." said DR.. Southgate
today. ct is not true women. are
physiologically unsuited to the busi-
ness world. l have more ailing wo-
men coming to see me from the home
than from places of employment. or
course, both men and women are
breaking down under the strain of
the business world today, because the
pace set is too great. But / do not
believe woman is untitled by nature
for such life. She may be by family
training"
The whole question is one of IN
dividuality," said DR.. Elizabeth Camp
bell But the woman of so of today
looks twenty-five years younger than
the woman of so who lived half a cen
tury ago. It is not true women are
physiologically untitled for business
but it. is true they are united to
carry on business, both outside and
inside the home. When a woman goes
into business she must make il her
exclusive work, as a man does, or she
must break down."

 Birmingham and Montgomery played good game yesterday-the best of the series to date. It was the first exhibition wherein the pitchers were the whole works.
 It was a game which could not have been decided in any other way than an error-either on the part of the battery or on the part of the fieders.
 Both pitchers were strong.
 If Wilhelm can go so well on a raw day. he should burn 'em up when the days begin to blister in June and July.
 Yantz played third base yesterday for Birmingham. He showed familiarity with infed work. He fielded we'll cov- cred much territory, and threw well. It was his arm which retired the runner the death of whom put an end to the game.
 Ellaml He looks better and stronger every day. The amount of ground he covers is incalculahle. The strength of his whip cannot be reckoned. For all round work there IS no shortstop in this league his equal.
 Tn Tuesdays game Mcbride did what the average ball player would not have done-and by so doing he scored run without which the Barons could not have won the game. He was on second when McGilvray popped the ball into the air. It looked certain that the ball would be caught. But the Baron did not loaf He
