OLD BOSTON FORGOT
To Hold Its Town Election
Today.

Seventy-nine thousand, nine hun
dred and ninety-nire incorporated
towns, including all in Hoosierdom but
Boston held elections Tuesday to Sc
lect town officials, including council
men, marshal. clerk and treasurer.
Boston residents. who do not have a
marshal. never heard OF the election
and consequently were not prepared.
Ii is not certain they ever will vote.
What remedy the law provides when
an entire town forsets such stirring
event as an election has not as Yet
been discovered. If legal the old
board will continue in office. Any
way, the Boston voters declare there
was none OF them who especially cared
for any of the offices.
Elsewhere in the county. the towns
people of the incorporated towns were
out early casting their votes. The ell
ections were in all cases quiet. The
voters declare the election will be
most expensive as more than the ne
cessary election board are required by
the law.

TO REFORM WOMAN
Mayor Orders Keely Cure
Given Her.

Mayor Zimmerman remains a refcr-
mer His methods are somewhat uni
que.
The mayor, who is a total abstainer
and who almost hates booze in any
form, Tuesday morning while presid-
ing IN police court handed out a hun
dred dollars and costs to Mrs Lola
Wilkins, who has been before the city
judge on several occasions for public
intoxication and who has served sew
eral sentences at the Home for Friend
less.
The sentence on Tuesday was made
especially heavy. not only because it is
rule of the court to so treat old Of
tenders, but more particularly to bene-
fit the woman-so she could not taste
liquor for a hundred and ten days,
During this period Of confinement the
woman will be treated with the cure
by her physician. In event the physi-
clan pronounces her cured before her
sentence has expired DR.. Zimmerman
has agreed to suspend the remainder
of the sentence.
The offense FOR which the woman
was fined was committed on October
-. She at that time was serving sen
tence at the Home for Friendless and
while trusty slipped away from the
institution The police found her in a
pitiful condition and returned the
woman to the home. from which she
was released on Tuesday only to be
arraigned and again committed.

SWIMMING EXPERT
TO HAVE CLASSES
II. II. Corsan to Be at Local
Y. M. G.. A. One Week
Water Carnival.

II. II. Corsan, the swimming expert
OF Toronto, Can. will appear in Rich
mond ut the Y. NJ. G.. A. during the
week OF Nov. 26 to Dec. >, according
to the announcement made today by H.
J. Horton, physical director at the
local association. A swimming carnl-
val will be a feature OF his local en-
Kagement and several exhibitions will
be given. Corsan will also conduct
several classes in swimming and life
saving.
Silver buttons will be awarded by
the Richmond association in four dill
ferent departments at this time A
button will be given to every novice
who was unable to swim on Corsan's
arrival, but who can swim fifty feet
on Dec. 2. In the competition for
prizes among swimmers OF the sec
ond class, an exhibition will be held
in the pool on Thanksgiving Day, &C
cording to the plans OF Physical Dir
ector Horton. To be credited with a
silver badge in this group, man
must be able to swim fifty yards, III
'ty feet on his back, and also be able
TO dive neatly. Special buttons VIII
also be awarded to men who teach nov
ices how to swim in a weeks time,
or master the art OF life saving.
Some close competition is expected
IN the trials, and the Y. NJ. G. a. Oh
ficials expect to have some excellent
exhibitions. In addition to the perfor'
mances OF local swimmers, Corsan will
do some stunts
Although quite young, Corsan has
won a big reputation in Canada, and
has made a good record at instruct
ing men to swim. His arrival eX-
lpected to mark revival of swimming
In the city. The event this year Will
be especially directed toward teach
ing men the value Of being able to
swim, as the Y NJ. &. A. officers
believe the instruction should have
q material effect in reducing the num-
Der OF drownings. All men in the
city, regardless of membership in the
association are eligible for the classes.
1t is probable that the classes will be
restricted to adults.

She always knows a bachelor by his
furtive look. The furtive lock. she ex-
plains. is something akin to that OF 4

for snares and Ritfails. or course this
may apply only to Boston bachelors,

side OF the coat is perfectly plain, fold
