CITY Officials Desire to Ar
range Pension for Faith
full Employees.
TO TAKE UP MATTER
Gem Declares Henry Nor
ton Will Have a Life Job
on Department.

After having worked for the street
department for more than forty years,
Henry Horton, age 81, failed to appear
for duty this week for the first time
since he has been in the employ OF
the city. Horton has been confined to
his bed since the death of his mother,
Harriet Horton, which occurred last
Sunday.
Although Street Commissioner Gem
wants to pay Horton his salary for the
past week, he does not believe he
could legally do So Both he and Mayor
Zimmerman have discussed pension
ing the aged street cleaner but fear
that this would be contrary to law.
II have examined Horizons record"
said Street Commissioner Gem this
morning. He has been on the force
longer than any other man. The rec
ords only go back 80 years and at that
time he was working for S1.15 per
day and has always been one of the
most faithful men in the employ of
the city"
When his father died, Horton was
twenty years old and was forced to
support his mother and sister which
he has done for IL years Because Of
his faithful record, the city officials
desire to provide some means for Hor-
ton as they believe that he cannot be
pensioned. At the time Homer Ham
mond was president of the board, he
ordered Horton discharged on account
of his age but Mayor Zimmerman and
Fred Charles, the other board mem
bers voted that Horton should be CIV
en- work by the city as long as he is
able to leave his home.
The matter will be taken up at the
board meeting next week. Street Com
missioner Gem stated that he will
keep Horton employed as long as he
is able to work for half day or a few
hours even though his condition is
weak.

BANKS EMPLOY EXPERTS
TO DETECT FORGERERS

nature of a person that the resem-
blance to the genuine is SO true that
the person whose name is being imi-
tated cannot tell the forgery from the
signature which he knows he has writ
ten. 1t is almost unbelievable to the
average mind.
Every one of these institutions have
in their employ experts who have
made a careful study of every form of
initiated handwriting; forgery, to the
extent that only the most skilled for
gerers who minutely plan every detail
of their operations can escape detec-
ton.
by the tracing method which is the
easiest but most dangerous a sigma
ture is reproduced fairly accurate but
there are always peculiarities and ear
marks by which the expert detects the
forgery.
'Forgeries in the smaller cities usu-
ally happen as result of conditions.
Some fellows, inconsiderate of the
consequences and ignorant of the law,
forge the name of their employers or
fellow workmen when they are hard
put for money. They are in nine cases
out of ten discovered shortly after the
forgery has passed into the bank win
dow and before they turn around an
officer of the law has the min Gus
tody."

NEED OF LESSONS
FOR SEX HYGIENE
Medical Inspector in Rich
mond Schools to At
tend Meeting.
A SERIES OF LECTURES
May be Given During the
Next Semester by the
School Inspectors.
A SERIES OF LECTURES

DR.. A. L. Bramkamp and DIR. ]. z
King, medical inspectors for the city
schools. will attend the international
Congress OF School Hygiene at Buffa
10. N. Y, August % to 81.
This is the first international con
gress for the consideration of hy
giene in the schools. The program
which has been prepared contains
over three hundred papers by Ameri
can and foreign specialists.
President Wilson will deliver an ad
dress at one of the sessions, and DR.
Eliot, ex-president of Harvard uni
versity, will speak.
DR.. Bramkamp stated this morning
that the congress would devote much
attention to the question of sex by
giene in the schools. Instruction in
sex hygiene is needed as badly in the
schools of Richmond as any other city
he said.
He agrees with DR.. Johnston. presi
dent of the school board, that the sub
ject should be taught in Richmond
but does not see how ii is possible al
present. Two methods of instruction
are open. The regular teachers may
give the pupils a good understanding
of the question through the teachine
of biological facts, or a series of lee
lures might be given by the medical
inspectors.
Under the salary now given these
inspectors this would be impossible
he said, as it would require that prac
tically all the inspectors time be de
voted to school work, and they could
not afford to do it
More instruction, he said, should bt
given by the parents, who, so long a:
they surround the sex problems will
a veil of secrecy and mystery, may ex
pect trouble. But the parents of thi:
generation can not be convinced q
this, so the best thing is TO reach the
next generation of parents through the
present generation of children.
Doctors Bramkamp and King arr
making the trip at their own expense
since the school board, although de
string them to go, did not feel that Il
could legally appropriate funds fol
such a purpose.

were deserting incoming cars from
Indianapolis.
Logansport, Terre Haute, Anderson,
Muncie and Wabash reported that in
terurban lines at those points were
unaffected by the strike.
Traction officials here claim that
the effects of the strike were trivial
and hat all schedules would be in full
force by this evening.
International Treasurer Orr, of the
Amalgamated Association of Street
and Electric Railway Employees, said
that the strike situation was encour-
aging from the union mems viewpoint
and that more men will be out by to-
night.
Up to 1 o'clock this afternoon, 100
men were reported to be on strike.

SAYS THAW WILL Be
DEPORTED SOON TO
NEW ENGLAND STATE
Indications Point to Real
Thaw Battle in United
States.
VIEW OF INSPECTOR

SHERBROOKE, Quebec, Aug. 23-
All indications today pointed to the
real battle to keep Harry Thaw from
being returned to the Mattewan, New
York; asylum for the criminal insane
will finally be fought out on United
States soil.
David Reynolds, one of the two Inn
migration inspectors detailed on the
case by the Dominion government, de-
clared positively that Thaw will be
deported probably next Wednesday or
Thursday into New Hampshire or
Vermont.
"Thaw has lost his case before he
really began to fight" said Mr.. Rey
nolds. The future events are clear
If Thaw wins or loses on his habeas
corpus proceedings he will be elected
from this country. The department
of immigration at Ottawa has been ad
vised in the matter by the department
of Justice.
Thaw has now retained ten different
lawyers, and is negotiating with attor
neys in New Hampshire and Vermont
to open a fight there for him if he is
sent over the line into one of those
states.
Thaw in Angry Mood.
The fugitive was in an angry frame
of mind today. He had quarreled with
w. l.. Shurtleff and with J. n. Green
shields. two of his counsellors. With
his collar rumpled and his hair
wildly Thaw stormed about his cell
He charged that the lawyers were not
doing all in their power to help him
Mr.. Greenshield said that, while he
would not drop the case, he would not
confer any more with his client.
The prisoner has telegraphed to
William Biakelee, district attorney oi
Allegheny county, Pa. Tin which Pitts
burgh is located) asking that some of
fetal action be taken to protect him
Under the Canadian law the immigra
tion officials. will take charge of ThaW
as soon as he gets out of the custody
of the superior court next week.
court of inquiry will then be held and
il will be decided that Thaw- is ar
undesira BILE alien citizen. Thaw viii
be represented by counsel at this set
ting of the court and will protest
against deportation demanding thai
the court prove him insane. The gov
ernment expects TO do this but viii
allow no time to be wasted in the
process. Papers have been received
here from NewYork state by which
the government representatives hope
TO show that Thaw is mental incom
petent.
Canada will have then have washed
its hands of the case and the fight viii
then be transferred to the United
States.

motormen and conductors on the local
lines of the T. H. |. and E., taking
part in the strike on interurban lines
of Indiana.
Superintendent Gordon of the local
interurban lines stated today that as
far as he knew there would be no
strike here. He said he did not believe
organizers for the new union of inter
ban workers had ever attempted to
carry on their organization work in
this city The nearest they had come
to Richmond was when they were re-
ported as being at work in Greenfield
about month ago. Mr. Gordon said
that the advices he had received this
morning led him to believe that none
of the lines of the T. H. l. and E. were
effected by the strike.
Corroborating Mr.. Gordon's state.
ment, local employe of the interur.
ban company stated that no attempt
had been made as far as he knew to
organize the men of the division be-
tween here and Indianapolis. He fur
ther said that no disaffection existed
to his knowledge and he did not anti.
cipate that any of the local men would
join the strike movement.
Crews of all interurbans running to
Richmond today from Indianapolis
stated that their cars left the state
capital under police protection. They
say they observed no cases of violence
or disorder. The usual schedule is be,
indianapolis. Outgoing cars from this
city are given police protection at In
dianapolis from the corporation limits
to the traction terminal building
