RED MEN TO ASK
MOTHERS PENSION
Richmond Order Will Join
With State Lodge in Pc
titioning Legislature.
RECEIVE REPORT HERE
Great Council of Lodge Tells
of Growth of Movement
in Country.

Members of the local tribes of Red
Men will join with the state lodge
In petitioning the next legislature to
pass mothers pension bill. Nine
teen states in all have made some pro-
vision to enable widowed mothers to
support their families, and the Red
Men hope to see Indiana the next
state to fall in line.
The report Of the committee on
mothers pensions to the great coun-
Gil, which met last month in Wash
ington, has been received here. 1t
contains many valuable facts and
much important information concern
Ing the growth of this movement All
save two of the nineteen states placed
the law respecting the pensioning of
mothers on their statute books during
the last year.
In most states provision has been
made so that the aid furnished will
be sufficient to enable the mothers to
bring up their children properly in
their own homes, and such mothers
and children shall not be deemed to
be paupers by reason of their having
received such aid.
The report in part says:
why should society or state turn a
deaf ear to the plaintive pleadings of
a widowed or deserted mother, and
the lamentations of those who are
flesh of her flesh" not to be separat-
ed in their interdependent lives?
why should we not pension the
mothers and afford proper care and
direction through these mothers to
their own children?
I'VE now give most competent pro-
lection and care to the insane, to the
paupers, to the epileptics, to the idi-
OTIS, etc, but scarcely a dollar of other
than private charitable money has
ever gone for the proper care in prt-
vate home, and education Of INDECENT
children who are not only sane and
susceptible, but who will soon take
the places of the present or future
generation in managing the affairs of
the state and nation whether we like
1t or not.
"The state can we'll afford to pay
from public fund as many thousands
or millions of dollars as may be neces-
sary to give the children the right
kind of care and education In real
homes, not institutions of semi-mili-
tary character, where love rarely
rules"

HESTER REMOVED
TO COUNTY JAIL

Donald hester, who is being held
awaiting the outcome of injuries
which he inflicted on Richard Cook
with a pair Of scissors in a fight on
the evening of October 6, was taken to
the county Jail yesterday. No addi-
tiOnal information has been received
from the Piqua hospital where Cook
is confined. The last report was
that he was some stronger but still
remained unconscious.
Attending physicians have little
hope of his recovering, saying that it
would be almost impossible for man
in Cooks condition to live.

OF the question rs TO whether the relic

be about due and Just now. when the anniversary

No one knows Just when this second crack

the old crack 1t is OF recent origin and is dis.
unctly visible. Mr Jordan. however, was the first
to call attention TO a long and almost Invisible
