IN GARDEN OF OLD
FASHIONED ROSES

Thomas Raper. a former Wayne

ing. Ii was his custom to water the
old fashioned flowers in his garden
shortly after seven o'clock every
evening and it was here that he was
found lying on his back with the
sprinkling can beside him. 1t is
thought that his death was due 10
apoplexy. He was eighty-three years
old.
Mr.. Raper was born in Wayne coun.
ty in 1880 and was engaged in farm
ing here until 1858. when he moved to

CHEWING OF TOBACCO
AND GUM WEAR TEETH

That the teeth are gradually
worn out with the habitual use of
chewing tobacco and chewing gum
is the opinion of DR.. ]. E. King,
county health officer.
Both are bad for the health of
a person" he declared today, and
I believe tn echewing of tobacco is
the worst habit for the health Of
one because of the nicotine it con-
tains Chewing tobacco is certain
to unsettle the nervous system in
time although there are persons
whose physical condition is almost
immune to its hurt
Chewing gum is foolish habit
and a bad one. Besides getting
persons jaws tired and sore il
is hard for the teeth because the
constant bringing of the lower and
upper teeth is sure to wear them
out"

TAX REVENUE THE SAME
BUT DEMANDS INCREASE

Main street from the bridge to
North Fourth street will be bricked.
The paving of this hill will be an ex-
small improvements which the board
has promised to make next year and
the city's share of these will amount
to about one-fourth of all the large i'm
provements contemplated.
The board was allowed s19.500 last
year for Improvements and there is no
prospect of obtaining more than that
amount when the budget is made up
next month. The amount allowed last
year for improvements to be made this
year, was exceeded by $4,000 before
April l.
City Controller E. G. McMahan stat
ed recently that the amount of taxes
which the city expected to receive
next year was not greater than those
of this year The statement of the
county auditor has not been received
as yet, although this is usually fur
nished in June.
Police Want More Money.
The police will want more money
this year, the purchase of a combina-
ton ambulancepatrol automobile be-
ing contemplated 1t is expected that
extra men will also be placed on the
force next year as this city is entitled
to a much larger police force.
Fire Chief Miller will ask an appro-
priation for an auto ladder truck to
replace the old one at the City build
ing. The amount received by his de-
partment fluctuates very little, as
most of the expense attached cannot
be altered.
With Mayor Zimmerman's new de-
cision to have the city pay for street
lightin :, another large amount of
money will have to be appropriated.
Unless the tax revenue this year is
larger than last year, there will proba-
bly, be more slicing of the department
al allowances this year than there has
been for several years.

LIND OFF TOMORROW
(National News Association)

MEXICO CITY, Aug 6-Members
f the American colony today express
ed the opinion that the administration
at Washington had made a mistake in
removing United States Ambassador
Henry Lane Wilson at this time.
President Wilson's action in sending
John Lind, former governor of Min
nesota, here on special mission has
given provisional President Huerta
another excuse to protest against out
side interference. That Huerta is be-
coming exceedingly angry at the Wash
ington government is plainly evident.
Two unofficial ENJOYS have been
sent here within the past six months
to study the situation and report to
the president on actual conditions, and
their presence has annoyed Huerta.
Capital for Jingoes.
Jingoes are making capital out of
the present status of affairs by declar-
ing that the United States is afraid of
Mexico.
President Huerta said today: 81
have publicly stated, and Minister Ur-
rutia has announced for me, that
will accept neither mediation nor in
tervention of any kind whatever, be-
cause l believe that the dignity of the
nation and the prestige of the govern
ment so requires.
Every one who comes to this coun-
try will soon learn that the recent war
is the most vigorous of demands in
favor of the national decorum and
dignity. No dealings will be had now
or at any other time with the rebels,
except with bullets, and no terms will
be granted except unconditional sur
render"
The impression prevails here that
Lind Is coming to ask Huerta to re-
sign and to get together with the
constftutfonafists to choose a provi-
sional president, acceptable to both
sides; then to have an election to
choose a president who would be rec
ognized by the United States by the
appointment of Mr.. Lind as ambassa-
dor.

BUSY SESSION WAS HELD
BY THE TRADES COUNCIL

the council, which will be held on
August 49,
H. X. Lehman, of Aurora, Ill, was
present at the meeting last evening
and made tentative arrangements to
bring Clarence Darrow to this city for
a lecture under the auspices of the
central body. Because of the fact that
Mr.. Darrow was counsel for the McNa-
mara brothers, charged with being the
tringleaders in the dynamite conspir-
acy, and because Darrow was later
tried and acquitted of the charge of
bribing jurors in the Mcnamara case,
it is believed he would prove a big at
traction. Mr. Lehman is advance
agent for Mr.. Darrows. He may be
brought to this city during the latter
part of September or the first of Oc-
tober.
A resolution is being drafted now
president and recording secretary
of the Trades Council, deploring the
fact that delay was occasioned in re-
moving Thomas Wiggans to the hos
pital Wiggans fell from the top of
a Main street building and was not
taken to the hospital for ten minutes
afterward. Copies of the resolution
will be sent to the mayor, chief of
police, president of the board of trus-
tees of the hospital, the hospital ma
tron and the board of works.

JUDGE |. {. WALKER
ANSWERS THE CALL
Indianapolis Jurist and Form
er Richmond Man, Died
Yesterday.

Lewis c. Walker, a wellknown for
mer Richmond lawyer and for two
terms representative of Wayne county
in the Indiana Legislature, died at his
residence, 1869 North Delaware street,
Indianapolis, early yesterday after
noon, after an illness of little more
than a week. Judge Walker had been
suffering from hardening of the arter-
les for some time, and complications
arose which resulted in his death, at
the age of seventy-fve. With the ex-
ception of his widow the only surviv-
ing near relatives are two grandchil-
dren, Mrs. Dorothy Dill Graham, OF
Chicago, formerly of Richmond, and
Malcolm H. Dill of this city.
Judge Walker was born on a farm
near Wilmington, Ohio, December 1,
1887. His ancestors were English pee
pie who had settled in the Hhenan-
doah valley, from which place his
grandfather migrated to Ohio. His ear
ly education was received in the coun-
try schools, after which he attended
the Wilmington Academy at Whining
ton, o., and the Southwestern Normal
School at Lebanon, o.
Mayor of Wilmington, Ohio.
From there he graduated with high
honors. He then entered Judge A. w.
Deans law office in Wilmington, where
he read law until he was able to pass
the bar examination, after which he
became law partner of Judge Dean
and soon rose to high position in his
chosen profession. He was also elected
mayor of Wilmington and served as
prosecuting attorney for two terms.
In 1869 Judge Walker came to Rich
mond and entered law practice in this
city with his brother, Calvin B. Wal
ker, who was later appointed United
States deputy commissioner of pen
sions- His election to the Indiana legIs-
lature took place in 1872 and he serV-
ed in that capacity for two terms,
during both of which he was chairman
of the judiciary committee. Judge Wal
ker made his home in indianapolis af-
ter that time and entered the law firm
of Ritter. Walker and Ritter, of which
he was a member until the time of
his election as judge of the Marion Su-
perior Court, in 1850.
Judge Walker had been prominent
in church circles and for several years
had been an elder in The Second
Presbyterian church. He was also
