convicted Tammany Hall and made its
downfall certain. The whole city is to be
congratulated on the election of Mr..

The only thing that kept the rejoicing at

over the fate Of Controller Prendergast

steadily as the Democratic figures slid

Hints at New Democracy.

THE task which now invites the real
Democrats OF this city Is the rebuilding
and reorganization of their own party in
this state. so that Democrats may have
a party here for which they do not have
to blush before all the world. And that
task we may be assured will be prompt

the city government, every good citizen
has cause to rejoice that such splendid
and patriotic men have been selected to
carry It on. Mr.. Mitchell il young. fear

memorable Mayor. And the city is es-
pecially fortunate that we are not to lose
the services of such men as Mr.. Nc

feat would have been a public calamity.

Plan First Concrete
Roadway in County

The first concrete roadway in the
county may be constructed in the Mid
dleborough pike, if the favorable re-
ports of the viewers, Milo Gentry of
Greensboro and Theodore Fisher of
Fountain City, are accepted by the
county commissioners. The estimat-
ed cost is S48,00O.
The improvement, the viewers be-
lieve, should start at Tenth street on
North J, running east to North
Twelfth street where 1t turns north,
joining the marlborough pike, A
half mile of the improvement will be
within the city limits
The commissioners are favorably
impressed with concrete roads and
while the property owners are given
the choice of the paving, the recon-
mendation of the commissioners
would probably decide between brick
and the newer paving. The improve,
ment of the New Paris pike with con.
crete instead of brick is also being
considered. However, this will not be
taken up until later.

When Sullivan disappeared he was
reported to have gone west or to Can
ada to visit agencies of the vaudeville
circuit owned by the firm of Consin-
dine and Sullivan. Later Big Tim was
reported to have been found at a no.

SO, Mrs. Inez Martinez, 100 South
West Fifth street, wants to employ
her time giving lessons in Spanish.
Her husband is a South American
representative of the Starr Piano com
pany.
The lonesomeness of her life since
she has been living in Richmond, sep
arated from her husband who is away
from home for months at time, open
Ing UP fields for the Starr piano in
the Latin American countries, caused
her to seek work that would relieve
the monotony and yet be of cultural
value. She has only her colored
Spanish speaking maid and an eight
years-old son to talk to, as there are
no other Spanish people in the city.
An Accomplished Artist.
Like most Spanish women she plays
the piano and does needle work, but
these do not throw her in contact with
the outer world, and she is lonesome
At first she wanted to seek posi-
ton teaching Spanish either in the
high school of the city or in Earlham
College, but her husband objected to
this, so she now wants to give pri
vate lessons in Spanish She says
that the language can be taught in six
months
Her husband is the son of Alberto

three-mile road law, large per cent
of the burden will be borne by tax
payers of this city.
The work of preparing the roadway
for the improvement of the National
road east was started last week. The
improvement will cost approximately
$4,000 and will be made of macadam.
A plan is being considered by the
county officials whereby the roadway
from the Fairgrounds west to the city
limits may be constructed of con-
crete. By agreement between the
county commissioners and the con-
tractor, the specifications can be al
tered. The National road east from
Richmond to the Fairgrounds is to be
forty-six feet wide and twenty feet
wide west of the fairgrounds to the
state line.
In order that traffic coming into the
city from the east will not be entirely
tied UP, arrangements have been made
Whereby one side of the roadway will
be paved, leaving the other open to
traffic.

MUST MAKE DEMAND

Superintendent J. T. Giles OF the
pal of the high school have no desire
to take issue with County Superinten-
dent Williams regarding the advis-
ibility of the introduction of sex in
struction in public schools.
After an investigation of con-
ditions in the country schools, Mr.
Williams has doubtless found that it
would be unwise to undertake the
teaching of this subject" said Mr..
Pickell this morning when asked TO
comment on the stand that Mr.. Will
liams has taken on sex hygiene lee
lures
No Need To Take Issue.
There is no need for us to take is
sue with him as there is nothing to
be gained by so doing as the city
schools and the county schools are en-
tirely separate. No good can possibly
come from an argument of the ques-
ton"
'Mr. Williams no doubt entertains
the same opinion that / do regarding
sex instruction in the schools" said
Supt Giles. ITO my mind 1t would be
highly dangerous to undertake its in

without the assistance of specially
trained teachers.

favoring the teaching of this subject.

are not ripe for carrying out the pro-

sidered by the school authorities of
Richmond, to my knowledge.
Fraught With Danger.
"This subject is fraught with grave
danger, unless 1t is handled properly.
Very few people are competent to
teach it. 1t will not be introduced here,
until there is popular demand for it.

of the people of Richmond in regard to
the matter"
Trustee Gives Views.
Upholding the view of County Super
intendent Williams that courses and
lectures on sex hygiene are impracti-
cal, Township Trustee James Howarth
announced that in none of the schools
of this township outside of Richmond
would he permit them to be given.

(National News Association

LIVERPOOL, Eng, Sept. 13.-
Funeral honors, both impressive and
of unprecedented character, were paid
to the memory of the late VIM. J. Gay
nor, mayor of New York City, here to-
day previous to the shipment of the
body on the liner Lusitania for New
York.
In the town hall, where the body of
no man has lain since the edifice was
built in 1854, services were held and
every attending element conduced to
the idea of brotherhood to the elimina-
tion of race or creed differences.
After the services the body was es-
corted to the Cunard pier by detach-
ments of foot and mounted police. If
some high officer of state in the Brit
ish government had passed away the
evidences of grief could scarcely have
been greater.
Flags at Half Mast.
Flags were at half mast and build
ings housing representative of the
United States government or United
States enterprises were draped with
black. Rufus Gaynor, son of the dead
American, was so overcome with grief
that he broke down and could not &C,
company his fathers body to the pier.
Throughout the night the body had
rested upon the royal catafalque es-
pecially brought here from Westmin-
ster Abbey.
Upon the splendid fumed oak plat
form of the Royal catafalQue had rest,
ed the remains of King Edward VII
and more lately those of Lord Wolsey,
field marshal of the kingdom. The
great oak casket, containing the body
of the dead, as though in keeping with
the simple character of the man it
contained. bore the sole inscription:
William J. Gaynor. September,
1913"
Intertwned Flags.
The catafalque rested at the foot of
the grand stairway and about it were
twined the stars and stripes and the
standard of England,
The funeral services in townhall
were conducted by a local clergyman.
Among those attending were the lord
mayor, Horace l. Washington. United
States consul at Liverpool and the
staff of the consulate. Mr.. Wilson, an
attache of the American consulate, &C
companied the body on board the Lusi,
tania.
The casket was placed in a flower
banked cabin on board the big liner
and a watch was detailed to stand
guard at the door of the death cham.

J. w. Tharp, 80, fireman on the St
Louis Flyer, which went into the ditch
near Wileys Station last Tuesday, in.
juring 35 persons, died at o'clock
last night at Reid Memorial hospital
When the shock of the wreck loos-
ened the flues of the boiler, he was
enveloped in the hot, kissing steam
and then hurled fifty feet from the
locomotive.
Practically his entire body was
burned and scalded. So severe were
his injuries that the attending physi-
clans from the start had but the slight
est hopes of saving his life.
During the four days that he ling.
cred between life and death. his suf-
feriRgs were horrible. Everything
that medical skill could do and every
ministration was given to ease his
agony.
Wife at Bedside.
Immediately after the accident his
wife was summoned from her home in
Columbus, Ohio, and she remained
near the bedside until his death.
He is survived by a widow and four
children. The body was shipped To
Columbus for burial at 1 o'clock this
afternoon.

flyer remains in practically the same
critical condition. No prediction is of.
fered by the physicians as to the prob
able result of his injuries.
