Boy Struck by Auto Tells
of Liking for Indians in
Suit to Recover $4,000

COWBOYS and Indians are the chief
sources of pleasure for thirteen-year-
old Arthur Halper. OF course, the
heroes of thrilling moving-plcture'
dramas are meant. Arthur told his
likes and dislikes, his pleasures and
pains, to the jury in a case In the
Circuit Court before Judge Adams in
which he is the plaintiff, suing for
$4,000 damages. His father is also
suing for $1,000.
Arthur was the eighteenth witness
called by Prosecutor Louis Hood who
is presenting his side of the case.
Preceding him were four physicians,
who testified to the injury the boy
suffered from an alleged automobile
accident, in which he was knocked
down by the car of Casper j. Maier
in 1911 Each stated it was his belief
that the lads mentality was impaired
by the cut he received on the back of
his head in the accident.
Conover English, of McCarter &
English, counsel for Mr.. Maier the
defendant, cross-examined Arthur.
The questions he put tended to show
that he was trying to prove the boy
normal, with the same mental powers
as any other boy of his age.
"What do you like to do most %
asked the lawyer.
go to the movies and see the In
dians and cowboys. They're great
fellers,' said the boy enthusiastically.
DIR. William Hicks, an expert on in
sanity and mental diseases, followed
the boy ON the stand. he quoted
from his experiences with imbeciles
and insane men. Some such persons
are able to do some things extraordi-
narily well, while they are unable to
use their minds as well as a small
boy In other matters. One man with
this trait-mechanica mind, the ply
sicians called it--eould recite the day
and date of every important event in
history, but that was his limit.
1t is hardly probable that the trial
will be finished before the middle of
next week. The rest of today will be
taken up with other witnesses for the
plaintiff, leaving Monday for the
opening of the defense's case.
No court will be held tomorrow or
Saturday

Good Bowels Are
An Aid to Gro1vth
GoBfng Children Need a Mild
Laxatfve to Foster Regular
Bowel Mobsment.

AS child grows older it requires
more and more personal attention
from the mother, and as the functions
of the bowels are of the utmost inn
portance to health, great attention
should be paid to them.
Diet is of great Importance, and the
mother should watch the effect of
certain foods. A food will constipate
one and not another, and so we have
healthy food like eggs causing
biliousness to thousands, and a whole
some fruit like bananas constipating
many. 1t is also to be considered that
the child Is growing, and great
changes are taking place in the young
man or young woman. The system
pas not yet settled Itself to its later
routine
A very valuable remedy at this
stage, and one which every growing
boy and girl should be given often or
occasionally. accor riding to the indi-
Vidual circumstances, is DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin. This is q laxa-
i've and tonic combined, SO mild that
IT Is given to little babies, and yet
equally effective in the most robust
constitution. At the first sign of a
tendency to constipation give u small
dose of Syrup Pepsin at night on re-
firing, and prompt action will follow
IN the morning. 1t not only acts on
the stomach and bowels, but its tonic
properties build up and strengthen
she system generally, which is an
opinion shared by Mr.. John Dey. of
Bloomfield. N. J. He has q large
\ family and at ages where the growth
and DEVELOPMENT must be watched.

REGIONAL BANKS
NUMBER PUZZLE
Administration Supporters Are
Inclined to Fix Eight as
a Minimum.

WASHINGTON, Oct 30.-The uues-
ton of how many reginal or branch
banks shall be created to administer
the new currency system was taken
up today by the Senate banking COM
mittee. Following conferences with
Secretary McAdoo, Senators Owen
and Pomerene and other administra-
ton supporters We're today inclined
to oppose vigorously any radical re-
duction from the twelve regional
banks proposed in the House bill.
Republicans on the committee, how
ever, with Senators Reed, O'Gorman
and Hitchcock, favored sweeping
| eduction, and the discussion centered
about proposals to make the number
three, four, five or six. The failure
Of the committee to reach a conclu-
sion on the central bank plan by a
| tie vote, resulted in efforts by the
central bank advocates to reduce the
number.
The President has conceded that the
committee might made d reduction in
the number of regional banks without
doing violence to the fundamentals
of the bAl, bat administration sup
porters today were inclined to fix
eight as a minimum.
| The EFFORT to fix the number of
regional banks was continued
throughout the morning session with
out result and with no agreement In
sight A schedule was adopted under
which the committee will meet at IL
o'clock in the morning and work I'M
til in the evening, with but one hour
recess for luncheon.

Ship Which Sank Hulk
of Volturno Tells of
Shambles on Steamer

ROTTERDAM, Oct 30.--The story
of the finding and sinking of the
charred derelict Volturno was told
yesterday on the arrival of the Dutch
oil steamer Charlois, belonging to the
American Petroleum Company, the
Dutch branch OF the Standard Oil
Company.
The Charlois sighted the Volturno
on October IL. Captain Schmidt had
not heard of the burning of the YES
sci and thought it possible that there
might be survivors on the derelict A
boat was lowered under the command
of the first officer.
The decks were bent and twisted in
all directions with the heat, while
down In the hold the cargo was still
smouldering. Flames still came from
the forecastle and stern. Apparently
the only part of the ship not damaged
by the flames was the engine room.
In the crews messroom and quar-
tiers the Charlois's men found four
charred corpses, completely unrecog
nizable. One of the dead was a man
of stout build; one of the others ap-
parently a boy.
Before departing the first officer of
the Charlois decided to sink the
wreck, as 1t was in n position danger
GUS to navigation. He had the outer
circulation tubes and seacocks opened
so as to let in the sea and cause her
slowly to sink.
The Charlois's men left the derelict
on October IS at $3.50 a. m. and half
an hour later the oil-tanker parted
company with the Volturno When
last seen the derelict was still float
ing, but 1t was certain she would sink,

time.

Evangelization of World
Campaign Is Sanctioned
at MethOdists' Meeting

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, Oct. 3d.
Sanctioning a campaign for the evan
gelization of the world and accepting
responsibility for 15O,00O,000 people in
heather lands and approving the
financial scheme adopted by the gen
eral conference of the Methodist
Church at st. Paul in May, 1912, the
policy committee of the national con-
vention of Methodist men made a ten
tative report today.
The report, which was read by
Bishop w. f. Mcdowell, of Chicago,
declares that the laity shall assume
all responsibilities on an equality with
the ministry for the success of the
church. 1t is asserted that the
church should ally itself with all
movements for civic righteousness.
AS means of carrying out the pro-
vision the committee recommended
that the church should make an an
nual minimum gain of 10 per cent. in
membership In all local churches;
that greater stress be placed on the
development of the youth and uni
versal use of the every-member-ca can
vass and weekly collection.
Judge II. T. Ames, of Williamsport,
Pa, was applauded roundly when he
attacked the report for failure to con-
denim the liquor traffic.
After a number of pleas that va
rious activities of the church be in
cluded in the report of the policy
committee had been made, Bishop Nc
Dowell withdraw the statement and
the committee began work on a new
report.
Among the activities urged not con-
tained in the report are the hospitals,
superannuated ministers and minis
ters' widows, increase in pastors sal
aries, the rural church, Sunday OBJ
servanee and placing the Bible III
public schools.
