out
Attorneys generally. interested in
the case because of the several fine
legal points it will involve, were pre-.
dieting today that the defense of the
two women would be about as follows:
That neither Mrs. Converse nor Miss
Cloyd posed as healers nor attempted
healing, either by medicine or by the
laying on of hands; that the Supreme
Being, who is omnipresent, omnipo.ent
and infinite, has the power to cure,
and that they merely served to peti-
ton Him to effect cures and to teach
those who called upon them to place
their trust and confidence in the pro-
tecting love of God.

rants on Mrs Converse and Miss

no date for the trial of Mrs. Converse
and Miss Cloyd had been fixed. He
said that recently two similar cases

thousands of children die every yeal
who receive medical attention, theil
death exciting no public interest, bu,
if child attended only by Science

CARbAJAL INVITES
LEADERS TO MEET
TO EFFECT PEACE
Move Regarded as Pledge of
Turning Power Over to
Carranza's Party to Rule
Mexico.

MEXICO CITY, July 17-Provisional
President Carbajal announced today
that he had invited the heads OF the
various warning factions of Mexico to
come to the capital to confer on the
best possible methods of effecting
peace throughout the republic. Con-
gress will be dissolved at once as the
next step in the remaining Huerta
influence over the government. 1'
President Carbajars announcement
was drawn up late last night after he
had given reception to members of
the supreme court. 1t is regarded as
pledge that the government will soon
be turned over to General Carranza
and his followers as the dominant fac.
ton.
"My sole labor will be to consolidate
the nation" said the president in this
document. "To this end have
thought it advisable to bring all the
different factions together"
Whether all the revolutionary fac
tions will accept this invitation is
doubtful, but it is expected General
Carranza will come here soon.
General Velasco. who was defeated
at Torreon by General Villa, took the
oath of office as minister of war to
day. His appointment is temporary
and he will retire as soon as a man
more satisfactory to the Constitution
alists can be found.
Government officials refused to give
any information today as to the desti
nation of General Huerta and General
Banquet. 1t was announced, however
that General Banquet had reported
their safe arrival at Orizaba. 1t is
believed they will go to Puerto Mexico
and there board the British cruiser
Bristol, though Sir Lionel Garden, the
British minister, refuses to state what
plans have been made for giving the
retiring president refuge.

State Conference Shows Ac-

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, July 17.-Pro-
gressive state and congressional can
didates, the Progressive state commit
tee, the executive committee. the ad-
visory committee and the finance COM
mittee, in a remarkable conference at
Indianapolis, last week, went over the
practical and immediate political sit
uation; planned comprehensively for
the work and for the fighting that
lies ahead, and planned for such a
speaking, publicity and organization
campaign as has never been known in
Indiana, the hotbed of active politics.
From all sides came the report that
the campaign of 1914 already is on,
regardless of the wishes or desires of
the party organization. The voters are
talking politics in the precincts. The
voters have turned out in amazing
strength for Progressive meetings.
Whatever the two old parties are able
to do in the way of getting crowds to
attend political gatherings, there is no
question as to the drawing powers of
the Progressive slogan, permanent
prosperity, based on common sense
laws"
The campaign has started. 1t is a
self-starter. This means much activ.
ity among Progressives in the next
regular opening of the battle, in early
September.
Old Party Not Ready.
Old party politicians not being ready
for the opening of the campaign, have

First Deputy Chief Funkhouser and
Chief Morals Inspector Dannenburg

MAYOR AND WORKS
BOARD WILL INSPECT
|P|TTSBURGH'S LIGHTS
Robbins and Other Officials
Leave on Trip to Deter
mine Style of Lamp for
Use Here.

With the departure of Mayor Rob.
bins and the three members OF MS
board of public works, Alfred Bavis,
John McMinn and Charles Marlatt, for
Pittsburg today to inspect two street
lighting systems. one carbon flame
lamp and the other luminous arcs, 1t
was generally believed that one of
these types of lamps would be adopted
for Richmond's new street lighting
system Each of these lamps have
proved to be highly efficient wherever
used.
Superintendent Kleinknecht favors
of the two lamps the luminous arcs,
which, he says, give as satisfactory IL
Elimination as the carbon flame lamps
and are less expensive.
Carbon flame lamps which have
been considered for use in Richmond
are of 10 amp. and are of about 1000
candlepower. He estimates the cost of
energy year for $50 of these lamps
would be about $4,000, with an addi-
tional expense of $2,1O0 for carbon
and globes. The two carbons used In
each lamp of this type have life of
about 1875 hours and it costs about
twenty cents to replace each set of
carbons. The cost of installing each
carbon flame lamp is about $35.
Use No Carbon.
For luminous arcs the cost of ener-
gy per year is estimated at $500 for
$50 lamps. If these lamps are adopted
$50 would be of the pendant type, to
be suspended from poles, and 100 of
the magnetic type, to be suspended
from brackets attached to trolley
poles. Electrodes instead Of carbon
are used in this type of lamps and the
annual cost of electrodes for the pen
dant type would be approximately
$195, while the electrodes for the mag.
netite type would cost about $240
Electrodes in the luminous arcs have
life of 800 hours. Electrodes for
pendants cost cents, for magnetites
cents.
Cost of installing the luminous arcs
approximate $26 each for pendants
and $50 each for magnetites. For the
latter type of lamps 100 ornamental
brackets would be required, each
bracket costing $14, one hundred be-
ing required.
BY the adoption of the luminous arc
lamps, which, like the carbon flames
have about 1000 candle power, an
item of maintenance must be figured
in not required by the carbon flame
This expense is for re-ctifiers at the
municipal plant. Luminous arcs use
direct current. while the units at the
plant supply only alternate current, sc
if luminous arcs are used rectifiers
must be provided to transform the al
ternating current to direct current
4. is estimated that the cost of main
tanning these rectifiers would be about
SO a year per lamp, a total of $1,000.

ORIGIN OF ELM PEELER.
We have heard Of elm peeler hogs
tnat at one time in early days roamed
at will through the forests of Indiana
and when settlers were in need OF
meat they gave chase after the elm
peelers. George Johnson says he has
seen poor hogs SHINING an elm tree.
In the spring OF the year when the
sap was running the bark was easily
torn of, and Mr.. johnson. affirms that
1t was not an uncommon sight in early
days to see three or four hogs tagging
at a strip of bark that would tear
loose thirty feet above the ground.
That is why the hogs are called elm
peelers. 49,.
