Because the questions asked appl;-

demanded specific and exact answers,
is the reason why, according to Supt.
Williams, forty-six out of the sixty-five

ARREST A FUGITIVE

G. A. Brown. formerly of Eaton, who
was arrested yesterday in Georgia on
the charge of embezzling funds from
the Singer Sewing machine branch Of
flee at Eaton. OF which he was agent,
probably will have charges placed
against him by George Fox, a promi-
nent local merchant. In December.
Brown is said to have made purchases
at the Fox store. giving two checks.
signed by himself to the amount of
about $50. A few days afterward Fox
learned that Brown had no funds in
the Eaton bank upon which the two
checks were made.
About this time Brown left Eaton
and it was ascertained that he had
embezzled a large sum from the Sing
err Sewing Machine company. He also
left number of other creditors, it is
said.

MORE ECONOMY IN
LODGES BUSINESS
Should Be Practiced, K. of P.
Meeting Here, Announces
in a Resolution.

With the purpose of reducing debts
of lodges scattered through the state,
as we'll as paying on the mortgage on
'he Indianapolis temple. the Knights
Of Pythias, in their district session,
held here last evening, at the sugges-
ton of DR.. J. NJ. Wampler, unanimous
~ passed resolution designed to es-
tablish a more economical business
system.
Harry Wade, grand keeper of the
records and seal, reported to the lodge
that the debt on the grand temple at
Indianapolis had been reduced $4,000,
and that $4,000 more had been ap-
FLIED by the lodge to take up the mort
cage on the site. He further pointed
out that the finances of the grand
lodge were in quite good condition gen.
orally.
At the conclusion of Wade's talk,
Dr. Wampler voiced the sentiment,
that II the state affairs were in such
good condition, it would be quite wise
10 reduce the ever increasing per cap
ita tax, and apply some money toward
ttc paying off of the mortgages on To-
cal temples and other small debts
through Indiana.
DR.. Wampler's suggestion to put a
stop to the increase in tax, and at the
san time wipe out debt, was enthusi-
astically received by the knights, and
me following resolution was adopted
without a dissenting vote:
BE it resolved by the eleventh dis
trict meeting Of the Knights of Pyth-
las, assembled in session, February
20, 1912,
That it is the sense of this meet
Ing that such economy in the matter
Of salaries, committee allowances and
printing. should be practiced in the
business affairs of the grand lodge as
will bring about a reduction in the
per capita tax to forty cents per men,
Der; and be it further resolved that a
copy of these resolutions be forwarded
to the grand keeper of records and
seal, with instructions to present the
same at the next annual session of the
, Grand lodge"

RURAL ROUTE men

fered many hardships on account OF
the snow drifts. while trying to cover
their regular routes today. Through
much persistence. few OF the carriers
in tho country districts managed to
struggle around their entire routes.
but some OF the men were literally
"snowbound," and their patrons were
thus practically cut off from the world
during the storm.
All the rural men were on hand regu'

started out with the avowed intention
OF making an effort to cover the en-
tire territory.
Not long after they had passed the
city limits. however. the rural men
struck deep drifts OF snow. some Of
these estimated by the carriers as at
least five or six feet in depth. Certain
wind.swept stretches OF road gave the
men . chance to make up little time,
but 20 frequently did they meet big
drifts, that they finally abandoned Sec
lions OF their routes.
Carrier Martin, No. 4. after deliver
ing his mail at Whitewater and

Cart road ~ he was returning from

Carrier No. 3, east OF the city, met
IN impossible ford. which had just
been washed out. and abandoning his
hope OF distributing mail on the other
side OF the stream, left the mail with
q resident near the ford. where other
farmers might II possible. call for it.
Up to q late hour this afternoon,
some Of tho snowbound rural men had
not been heard from. but the postal
authorities expect them all to be in by
night.
Delivery in the city was not serious

riers made their regular trips. De-
livery was delayed much because Of
the tie.up on incoming mails caused by
late trains.
