of the problems presented by the state prisons.

of working out his ideas. The result of President
Wilson's suggestions Is Don't Worry Camp" the

made clear to George B. Rea, special
minister from the Chinese premier by
President Wilson today. Rea called

United States capital would be given
preference and begged that the United

TO

Proposed For County
Infirmary.

AT a meeting of the Wayne county
commissioners with several members
of the county council the proposition
of. making an appropriation of $1,000
for a new lighting system at the
Wayne County Infirmary was discuss
ed. 1t is proposed by the commission
ers to install an electric lighting sys-
tenn at the institution to take the place
of the system of kerosene lamp light
ing now in vogue.
The committee from the county
board of charities condemned the
present system and recommended that
a new one be installed At the Janu-
airy session of the commissioners the
proposition was favorably considered
by the commissioners though the
council refused to make the appropri-
alton. The members of both bordies
present today conferred with Supt.
Neuton Brumfield and decided favor
ably toward the action. At the next
regular session of the council it\will
probably be decided to appropriate the
money for the improvement.

MAY GIVE UP PLAN

AS result of the verdict being re-
turned in favor of the defendants in
the condemnation proceedings of the
state against the property of John
and Clara Kempton, the colony plan
as advocated for this locality may be
given up, according to the authorities
of the Eastern Indiana Hospital for
Insane.
mo definite decision has been TAX
en- by the authorities, as yet The case
may be appealed and possibly market
value of the farm as set by the jury
may be paid. However, the entire plan
may be given up" said DR.. S. L. Smith,
superintendent of the institution.
The trial was opened Monday and
the case went to the jury at AIS
o'clock yesterday afternoon and YER
dict was not reached until $50 this
morning. The property of the Kemp
tons was appraised by three men ap-
pointed by the court last year, the val
ue of the property being set at $170
per acre. The jury decided in favor
of the Kemptons believing that the
property was worth $3.50 per acre, max
ing the total value of the farm, with
all improvements $4,000.
AS result of the trial witnesses
who testified in behalf of the defense
will be compelled to pay a higher tax
than they have done in former years,
according to County Assessor Mat
thews. The testimony of some of the
witnesses showed that their farms
were valued at more than three times

purchase of land where the inmates of
the hospital could be given employ
ment on farm Their minds would
be greatly improved it is believed by
DR.. Smith. The plan would not only
be beneficial to the inmates but
would help the institution financially.
Property has already been pur-
chased though it was planned to use
the kempton property also. DR..
Smith believes the jury would have
been justified in returning a verdict
in favor of the state alleging that $40
was reasonable and fair price. DR..
Smith has not decided what action will
be taken.
