ASKS new SEWER
| IN WEST RICHMOND
Petition Presented to Board
Referred to Engineer For
Plans.

At a meeting of the board of public
works today a petition for a new sew
err system was presented and referred
to the engineer for plans and esti-
mates. The proposed sewer system
would be between West Ninth street
and Clear creek from the National
road to West Main and West Seventh
to the creek, from Main to Peacock
road.
Engineer Charles said he had re-
ceived several requests for official
tests of gas meters. He said meter
proving machines ranged in prices
from $3.50 to $500. The board decided
to defer action on this matter.
A sanitary sewer for Richmond
|avenue, from Northwest Fifth to
Northwest Seventh was petitioned for
The roadway from the North
Twelfth street bridge to the fill being
made for the road improvement to the
north is almost impossible because of
mud, property owners informed the
board today. and they presented a pc
tition for a temporary board walk.
The board will make an inspection of
the proposed Improvement.
Engineer Charles reported that the
city's share of the estimated cost of
cement sidewalks and cutters on
North Third street would be $3.50, and
it is probable the board will order this
Improvement.
There is no question but what the
sidewalks and the roadway on North
Third street are in terrible condition, -
said President Bavis, and the condi-
lions existing on that street are not
only undesira BILE to the residents, but
make a very bad impression on visit
ors to the city
Because the platform of the north
end c. & o. station was so poorly il
Illuminated at night the board conclud-
ed its session by adopting a resolu-
ton requesting the railroad company
to locate a large arc light at the sta
ton.

SINGERS OF GERMAN
FOR CHARITY CAUSE

German singers, members Of the
oldest musical organization in the
city-the Richmond Mannerchor-
will sing songs in the German Ian
guage at the charity concert at the
tabernacle, February g.
The MRnnerchor was organized in
1856, in a room over Fifth and Main
streets, with Prof. Tisch as the first
director. Only one of the charter
members, John Schuman is living. He
is ninety years old, but is still inter
ested in the progress and growth of
the society. With such men as Henry
Schulhoff, Ferdinand Herold, Henry
Winterling. Leonard Sporting, Fred
erick Paulus Conrad Schlueter, Bait
ger Bescher and Henry limerick as
active members. the organization
tiourished before the Civil war.
Recruit Members.
When hostilities broke out on the So
ciety suspended meetings until 1866.
Many younger Germans came to the
city from Cincinnati in that and fol-
lowing years, from whom the ranks Of
the MRnnerchor were rehlled.
The next year the first S@ngerfest
was given, the Cincinnati orchestra
being brought here as an added at
traction. The society was at that
time in a home of its own between
Main and North A streets on Seventh.
Succeeding Prof Collett as director,
Prof. Al Moorehead took charge Of
the singing. Under his direction many
successful recitals were given. At that
time among the most active members
were H. II. Engelbert, Joseph Grimm,
Adolph Meier, William Surrender
and Albert Stauber.
A few years ago the Mannerchor
changed it's meeting place to the old
station house on the south side, where
weekly rehearsals are being held for
the National Sangerbund to be held
at Louisville, KY, in February. Will
liam H. Duning, Jr., is directing the
organization.

PLEADS FOR CHANGE
IN SHERMAN LAW

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-Declar-
ing that the Sherman Law shall be
deemed unreasonable, Representative
Stanley of Kentucky today presented
arguments in favor of the various
measures he has introduced at the
hearing on the administration anti
trust bill by the house judiciary COM
mittee.
what we need to do said Stanley,
''is to restore the Sherman Law to it's

opinions by the court holding that any

FIRE HOSE BOUGHT
BELOW OLD PRICE

For the first time in many years
the board Of public works followed
out \ policy of purchasing fire hose
on competitive basis. Bids from
nine companies were opened and all
of them were below the price the city
has been paying for some time, $1.10
a foot.
Five hundred feet of standard hose
is to be purchased, and the board will
announce the contract award late
this afternoon. Hose the city has
been using in the past has been very
satisfactory, but the board believed
the city was paying too much for it..
This opinion was apparently substan-
tiated by the figures contained in the
bids submitted today
I he Eureka Fire Hose Manufacture
ing company of Chicago, which has
supplied the city for several years.
offered its best grade at $110, but
two other grades at 80 and rs cents,
Only one other company quoted
hose as high as $110, the C. c. c. Fire
Hose and Rubber company of Port
Huron, Mich, but it quoted two other
standard grades at 81 and 90 cents.
Bids Of the companies follow:
Grether Fire Equipment company,
Dayton. two grades at 50 cents. one
at, so cents and one at 20 cents.
Bi-Lateral Fire Hose company, Chi
Cago. two at 80 cents one at 95 cents
and one at 81.
Boston Woven Hose and Rubber
company. 81, 90 cents and so cents
Jones Hardware company (for New
York Rtlt and Packing company, 81

CagO, 81, SO, 50 and IS cents
p. F: Goodrich company, Indianap-
oils, two grades at 80 cents each
United Globe and Rubber company,
Chicago, 50 cents.
All bids called for double jacket cot
ton and ruber lined goods, and a 400
pound pressure guarantee.
Agents for the companies frankly
admitted it was difficult to test the
quality of rubber goods by sight or
feeling and all We're emphatic in their
declarations that their goods would
stand the most rigorous physical and
chemical tests. They also said that
the normal life of hose was from IF
teen 20 twenty years, but no guar
antee on the same could be made

NOT
"PEEVED" ABOUT
HOUSES ACTION

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29-There is
to be no war against the Democratic
party by the National American Suf-
frage association, because the house
rules committee declined to recon-
mend a special committee on suffrage.
This was made clear today in a letter
to President Wilson by Mrs. Medill
Mccormick, chairman Of the congress
sional committee Of the association.
She assured the Democrats that the
Congressional Union for Woman Suf-
frage does not have the united sup
port of the suffragists in its plan.

NEED OF ANOTHER
PATROLMAN FELT

The absence of Patrolman Wenger
who is doing night traffic duty at
Eighth and Main streets, is a serious
handicap to headquarters in case of
fires, ambulance calls and other hur-
ry up calls. of which the majority
come at night. While the presence
of Wenger at the corner allows the
four patrolmen on the adjoining beats
to stay on them, 1t leaves headQuar-
tiers without a man to send in re,
Spouse to urgent calls. The present
arrangement does not satisfy Police
Chief Goodwin, who, however, proba'
bly, will not make any changes until
the police commissioners feel able to
add another man to the force.

CLEAN YOUR WALKS

Persons whose sidewalks are cover
ed with mud and dirt in the residence
districts are receiving notices from
the police department today to clean
them up at once. The notices allow
twentyfour hours time in which the
work may be done from the time the
notice is received. In some localities
mud has been allowed to wash onto
the sidewalks and accumulate until
the walk is almost impossible. This
has led to the action of the depart.
ment, giving notice before the prop
erty holders are compelled to have the
work done.

CARNAT|ON LEAGUE
FOUNDER LIVES HERE
Lewis G. Reynolds, Author of
Greed, a Richmond
Resident.

Few persons in Richmond who wore
carnations today as an annual tribute
to the memory OF William Mckinley
know that the founder and organizer
Of the "Carnation League of America
is living in Richmond-Lewis G. Rey-
holds.
The creed Of the Carnation league
which follows, was composed by Mr.
Reynolds and declared by former
President Roosevelt to be little
classic which should be subscribed to
Ind memorized by every man, woman
and child in the nation:
Relieving that the future great
ness of my country can best be as
sured by a growth of good citizen
ship among the people, and that
good citizenship may be promoted
by keeping fresh in our hearts and
minds the best traditions of our
country, and that this can, in
measure, be accomplished by
proper observance of our national
holidays, | charge myself, from
this time forward, to give thought
full consideration to the patriotic
lesson presented by each such day,
and endeavor to have others do
the same"
Carnation day was born in Dayton
Something of the purpose of the or.
eanization is indicated in the follow.
Ing extract from the original promul
cation of the institution:
There has been instituted Nc.
Kinley memorial known as the Car
nation League Of America the sole
purpose of which is to comm emorate
annually, the life and works of Will
liam Mckinley and foster national pa
triotism. His pure, clean life, and his
distinguished service mark him as
worthy of especial honor. The same
loyal impulse that prompted the stop
ping of wheels Of industry for those
moments on the day of his burial
has found expression in this simple
tribute instituted by the Carnation
League Of America. 1t can be taken
part in by old and young of either
sex To wear the presidents favorite
flower in the lapel Of the coat, or in
the hair, or at the throat, in silent
memory Of a departed servant, whose
life was forfeited because he was our
public servant, is what is contemplate
ed by this movement. The fact that
the carnation was President McKin-
ley's favorite flower and was always
found in his buttonhole is the reason
for its choice as a league symbol, to
be worn on each recurring 18th of
January, the anniversary OF the late
presidents birth. The custom was
first observed on January 20, 1903,
with the greatest unanimity through
out the country and by all Americans
all over the world"

Village Funds Divided.

Winnipeg Junction, the Clay county
village which has gone out of business.
has declared a dividend in which every
citizen is to participate. The amount
to be divided is $500 and the case is the
first in the states history where such
action has been taken. The matter
dates back to 1909 when the Northern
Pacific railroad moved it's line a mile
from the village. 1t had been the juno
ton of the main line of that road west
with the branch running north to Win
nipeg, and it's inhabitants were mostly
railroad employees.
But the. moving of the tracks de-
populated the place and he FEW re-
manning inhabitants found that the viii
lage treasury contained $500. Debts ag-
gregating $500 were paid, and 1t was
decided to divide the balance among
the stockholders in h municipal en-
terprise who still were loyal.
The village is located in the town
ship. of Highland Grove, n the people
of that community thought they ought
to. have this money. So suit was
brought, but the villagers won in the
district court. An appeal to the SUI
preme court was taken, and in decision
handed down Friday, Chief Justice al
vim T.. Brown affirmed the distribution
.of the town assets. He did not pass on
whether the method pursued was cor
rect. saying that the township folk did
not have the right to raise this point
The order Of Judge Nye was affirmed.
7. M. Witherow OF this city was
counsel for the township.
