WANTED BOUL YARD
IN WEST RICHMOND
Residents Circulate Petition
for Cement Road and Riv-
erside Park.

Several residents of West Richmond
are now behind a movement for a con.
crete boulevard in that section of the
city, to be constructed under the three
mile gravel road law, and the estab-
lishment Of a new park by the city,
extending from the new Joseph Moore
school, South West Second street and
South West E street to the river. 1t
is planned to have the boulevard bor-
der the new park. A canvass is now
being made to secure signatures to a
petition for such boulevard.
The proposed boulevard would wind
about West Richmond like the coils of
q gigantic snake. The course of the
boulevard would extend from the Ma
tional road north on North Seventh
street to the Peacock road, thence east
to West Fifth street, thence north to
Randolph street, east on Randolph
street to West Third street, south on
West Third street to South West E
street, thence east to the river and
along the river bank north to the Ma.
tional road, thence west on the Ma
tional road to West Second street,
thence north on West Second street to
Kinsey street, east on Kinsey street to
West First street, and south on that
street to the National road.
An attorney will appear before the
board of public works soon and urge
the establishment of the proposed
river bank park in connection with
the West Richmond boulevard in the
event it II constructed.

Persons Conducting Event
Wish to Accommodate
Larger Crowds.

The May Music festival is a financial
success, although no reports of the
ticket sales or attendance have been
made to Charles Jordan, secretary Of
the ticket committee. Mr.. Jordan
stated today that the festival means a
good profit to the Alumni association
beyond any doubt The money thus
received will be the basis of a fund to
assist students through the senior
year of school.
J. T. Giles, superintendent with
Principal Pickell, Physical Director
Nohr and other interested men, have
discussed having part of the festival
next year in either Morton or Glen
Miller park.
The singing festival itself will be
held in the Coliseum as Usual because
work in some of the parts could not
be appreciated if given out of doors.
But the physical exhibitions and drills
under Mr.. Nohr, may be transferred to
the park and contests of some kind
added. Orchestra or band music will
accompany it and probably the chorus
would be used. The purpose of this
would be the accommodation of many
more persons.

People on Seventh
Agree to Mediation

A new complication in the question
A street to Ft Wayne avenue, which
President Bavis of the board of public
works says has caused him to have
the nightmare, came to light at the
board meeting this morning. Attorney
Wilfred Jessup pointed out that the
engineer had changed the specifica-
tions from a 9-inch to an 8-inch base
without the boards approval and, in
consequence, no matter what kind OF
paving was finally ordered, litigation
probably would result.
Engineer Charles said the change
had been made merely to correct a
clerical error and the board was dis
posed to ignore this technicality and
Mr. Jessup's suggestion that proceed
ings for the paving of the street begin
all over again.
If new proceedings were instituted
1t would be late in the fall before
work of paving the street could be
started, with a chance that the street
would not be permanently improved at
all. Last winter the resident property
owners vigorously opposed the perma-
nent improvement of the street and
the board had to carry the matter to
council
Agree to Mediate.
This morning delegation of Sew
enth street property owners who want
the street paved with brick appeared
before the board and agreed to Mr..
Davis proposal to have an attorney

CONVENTION DATE
D|SPLEASES men
IN G. 0. P RACE
Candidates Protest Not Suf-
ficient Time Allowed for
Canvassing Large Body of
Delegates to Meeting.

The majority of candidates for NOM
ination on the Republican county tick
ct are far from being pleased with the
date set for the nominating convention
by the county central committee at it's
meeting Saturday.
They complain that the delegates to
the convention, who will number 800,
will not be selected until next Friday,
when ward and township meetings are
to be held, so the candidates will only
have one week in which to see the
delegates and advance their claims
for nomination.
1T will be impossible for me to see
half the delegates before the conven-
ton is held" said one candidate, a
travelling man, $50 it will be necessary
for me to conduct my campaign
through the mails"
Candidates admit that it would not
have been satisfactory to hold the con-
vention the second, third or fourth
Saturdays in June because farmers
would not then be able to leave their
farm work, but they are of the opinion
the convention should have been post
poned until the latter part of July or
some time early in August.
Oppose Late Convention.
Members of the county central COM
mittee opposed holding the convention
later than the middle of July because
they wanted the nominees to have
plenty of time to canvass the voters
Several members of the county cen
trail committee at the meeting Satur-
day spoke hopefully of the prospect of
rehabilitating the party in Wayne
county this year, and they frankly
urged a large delegate body for the
county convention for the purpose Of
making demonstration of strength"
Former county chairman Paul Com
stock pleased the committeeman with
his assertion that the party was gain
ing in strength every week and he ven
tured the opinion that the election
next fall would be an oldfashioned
Republican triumph
Edward J. Hancock, of Muncie, bus
mess manager of the Indiana State
Journal, the official party organ, at
tended the meeting and he gave a
most optimistic recital of Republican
prospects in Indiana this year He said
he had been touring the state and had
found the party growing like a weed
and he predicted a Waterloo for the
Democrats and the ProgresSives this
year.
At the conclusion of the meeting
Ed. J. Weidner, connected with a local
wholesale grocery company, announc-
ed his candidacy for the Republican
nomination as county treasurer.

| representing them meet tomorrow
with the city attorney and the attor-
ney for cement advocates to consider
the validity of five signatures the
board refused to recognize on the petit
tion to have the street cemented.
These three attorneys will practically
decide whether the street is to be
paved with brick or cement.
Property owners who have petition
ed for a cement roadway assert that
one petition they filed with the city
clerk is now missing and Clerk Besch-
er contends that the petition was nev-
er given to him. 1t Is asserted that
the name of William Dicks appears on
this petition but today Dicks notified
the clerk that he wants the street
bricked.
Remonstrances were filed today
against cementing the roadway of the
alley between North Twelfth and Thir-
teenth streets from B to C streets;
| against cementing the alley between
West Main and South West A, from
West Fifth to West Seventh, and
against improving South Twenty-third
street with cement curbs and cutters
and a graveled roadway. Considera-
tion of all three remonstrances were
postponed until Thursday
A remonstrance was also filed
against opening an alley between
South Twentieth and Twenty-first
streets from its north terminus.

BILL INSTEAD OF S.

When George Brehm, SIT Main
street, was paying Little Mike" Sui
livan, driver for Ed Evans, the dray-

hurry that he was giving him SIS

that a $50 bill was missing from his
cash register. Mike Sullivan returned
within an hour, handed him the miss
ing $50 bill and asked for a S. bill in
exchange. Neither Mr.. Brehm nor
Sullivan had noticed the mistake when
the payment was made and Sullivan
was much surprised to find the bill
in his pocket.

SIXTEEN ARRESTS
FOLLOW lL OF
WEEK IN COURTS
Theft of Horse From Rear of
Eagles Home Saturday
Starts Arrests of Stealing
and Gambling.

Last weeks unique police record of
only one arrest was merely lull be-
fore a storm, said storm breaking Sat
| urday night and continuing through
out Sunday, resulting in sixteen ar
rests on charges ranging from horse
theft to intoxication. The majority of
offenders faced the mayor this morn
ing and all were convicted. A man
by the name of Kroma stole a horse
and rig in the rear of the new Eagles
| home, South Seventh street, and was
! apprehended in Dayton Two negroes
were not prosecuted for turning
, states evidence on several friends
who were thoroughly enjoying a crap
game until it was raided by the police.
Wash Hamilton, Louis Taylor, Reu-
ben Whitlock and Arthur Scaggs
pleaded guilty to a charge of gambling
at craps and each drew a fine OF IS
and costs, all paying but Taylor. John
Sanders, who ran the game, pleaded
guilty to operating gambling house,
1922 North F street, and was fined $15
and costs. He had been under suspi-
cion of the police for some time.
Notwithstanding the fact the law
regards visiting gambling house
more of an offense than gambling, and
provides for it a Jail sentence as well
as fine, two of the men caught in
: the Sanders house, Houston Hatfield
and J. Wooten, who were not partici-
pating in the game, pleaded guilty to
the visiting" charge and each drew
$40 and costs and ten days.
Rush Full House.
The house was crowded when Off
GERS Menke and Bundy broke into it
and wild confusion re1gned, many
players escaping, some through win
dows.
Wiley Thompson, colored, was fined
$25 and costs for second offense on an
| intoxication charge. Two Frank
Smiths were arrested for intoxication,
each being fined 81 and costs. Bert
Stratton pleaded not guilty to public
intoxication, saying he wabbled when
walking because he had been hit in
the head at the Kennepohl restaurant
and robbed of his watch. The mayor
ignored this defense and fined the
man 81 and costs. John Henry, col
ored, was fined $40 and costs for car
rying a revolver concealed. One Mum
Gle negro, who said he had come to
Richmond in search of work, was ord
cred to leave town. William Roberts
was fined 81 and costs for intoxica-
ton.
The horse and rig stolen Saturday
night was traced almost to West AL
| exandria by the owner of the rig,
! Charles Hicks. The horse was owned
| by Charles Cox. The horse had been
| shod in peculiar manner and Hicks
with the east of a Sherlock Holmes,
followed the shoe tracks as far as
they could be discerned. Sunday aft
ernOon the horse and buggy were
found by the Dayton police in a liv-
| cry barn in that city to which barn a
West Alexandria man had directed the
thief. The thief tried to sell this man
the rig, but suspecting it had been
stolen, told the man to go to a Dayton
livery barn where he would meet him
Sunday and close the deal. This man
then notified the Dayton police.

BUILDERS ON STRIKE
Chicago Faces Me-Up of
Building Industry.

CHICAGO, May 25.-A city-wide Ia
bor war was threatened today as a
result of the Brickmakers Unions re-
fusal to ratify the agreement made by
the arbitration committee composed Of
representatives of the union and the
employers. The 10000 building
trades workers who have been idle for
eleven weeks because of the strike
will not return to work with the sane
ton Of the brickmakers union. En-
ployers announced that a meeting
would be held today to consider a
lockout" of the unions and the EN-.
ployment of strike breakers.
The break in the negotiations was
caused by the employers refusal to
agree to discharge men only with the
unon's consent.

Before an immense crowd that filled
the seats and standing room in the
balconies and galleries of the Coli
scum, the first exhibition of physical
work as taught by tho Richmond
schools was staged under the dirsc-
tion of Robert Nohr, Jr., last Saturday
evening. The program included folk
dances, wand and Indian club drills,
aesthetic dancing and apparatus work
of different kinds.
The entire floor of the Coliseum had
been cleared of chairs and only the
stage for the accommodation Of the
high school orchestra, which furnished
the music, remained For the first
number. dumb bell drills were offered
by the Sixth grade children Of Warner
school. The second number, folk dan.
ces, by Third grade children from
Starr and Hibberd schools was one of
the most attractive of the entire even
ing and completely won the audience.
The children, looking very grave
and important for their years, formed
two large circles on the floor of the
Coliseum, and executed their quaint
little dances to the music Of the vic
trola. They apparently associated the
different dances with the music that
had been commonly used, and Mr..
Nohr had but to start the machine, and
the tots would go bobbing. and bowling
over the floor, clapping their hands,
and taking careful little steps.
Spirit Of Childhood.
But In spite of their apparent con.
cern over the work, it embodied the
spirit Of childhood as plainly as any

ROVER WILL STAY,
SAYS CAP ROGERS,
DEFY|NG COMP PANY
Morton Park Directors and
Veteran Skipper Fail to
Agree on Contract or Op-
Grating Plan.

Skipper Rogers of the wild Ro-
ver,' which craft Rogers has been op-
Grating on Morton lake all this year
without contract with the park COM
pany, has, fguratively hoisted the
black flag and defied the company Of
ficials to GUST him.
Officers of the park company say
Rogers has been treated fairly and was
offered a contract to operate his boat
on the lake this year but refused to
sign it, so the company gave another
man a contract to operate a large mo-
torboat. Rogers. it is said, refused to
sign the contract because the company
would not agree to bar all canoes, row.
boats and motorboats from the lake.
Some time ago Rogers advertised
his boat for sale and the company Of
fered $1,000 for the craft and two lots
on North ] street, opposite the park.
Rogers refused this offer, park Off
cials say. However, Rogers asserts
that he was only offered 5000.
Under an agreement Rogers had
with the company last year he was to
cent. of his profits off the Wild Rover,
but, it Is alleged, failed to make a set

Collects No Fares.
Sunday Rogers did land office bus
mess with his quaint looking steam
boat, but made no effort to collect
fares. He placed a large glass jar in
the center of the boat for collections
and at the end of the last cruise it
was well filled.
Rogers asserts he is an old man and
the members of the park company are
trying to get the best of him. He has
placed a large sign on his little shack
on J street which reads: Rogers
Home for Old People"
Company officials desire to be lib
eral in their dealings with the steam
boat man, but he has broken off all
diplomatic relations with them and
they are at their wits ends to know
what action to take. If he will enter in
to a fair contract with the company
the incident will be closed. but he has
handed down the ultimatum that the
Wild Rover is to be queen Of the lake
with no motorboat competition or he
will not enter into any kind Of an
agreement.
