A JUST REVENGE

Lone Wolf, once an Indian chief,
though he did not look it now in his
rags and misery, but come of proud
race, sat summing himself on the
pavement His squaw, tiny pap
poose at her breast, occupied a near
doorway. They were footsore, home
less, tired. Hungry, too, and it was
fully ten Dliles to the reservation
where they had friends.
Suddenly the door behind the wo-
man was pulled open inwards Some

ed to stop, sustained by one hand,
with eyes and thought only for the
little one.
Then Mort Dwyer drew back and
his hand whipped to his hip pocket
like a streak of lightning. An inert
mass, that squalid form on the pave
ment, was suddenly infused with life.
Straight as an arrow, a cleaning
knife appraised, Lone Wolf made
wild spring for the miscreant who
had imperiled wife and babe.
Speedy as was the gambler, he
would have been at fault and disad-
vantage had the Indian perfected that
maddened swoop. Lone VOLTS flight
was checked by a low, beseeching
word from the squaw. Seemingly it
told him that the pappoose was I'M
hurt. Further it awoke the savage
to the realization that an attack up
on whie man in that section, no
matter how provoked, would culmi-
nate at ropes end. The woman
was bruised about the face, but what
mattered that, when the child was
safe!
So with a muttered curse Dwyer
strobe from the spot. Lone Wolf gath
cred up his traps. His squaw prepared
to move on. The child walled at be-
ing disturbed by the rough shaking
up.
''Wagh! Lone Wolf will remem-
ber!' spoke the Indian with a last
menacing glare after the gambler.
The latter forgot the incident with
in the hour. He was of a profession
and border experiences where Rem
ingtons and Bowies played conspicU
Gus parts. Free of the babbling bust
ness thoroughfare of the town he
paused refiectively. A man of coarser
mood than himself joined him.
Down on your luck, it seems?"
observed the latter, stealthily study
ing the face of the other.

the gambling room above the town
tavern. He was flashily dressed, not
unhandsome fellow, but the scowl of
a loser was on his face.
"Out of the way" he growled rude

Help Tide Over Pressing
Emergency.

The city of Richmond went broke"
again this week and as a consequence
there was hasty call for funds from
Treasurer Chamness who made an ad-
vancement of $1,000 on spring taxes
to the municipality. The city's gen.
eral fund almost ceased to exist and
in view of the coming local option
election. which must be paid for out
of the general fund. $4,000 was deemed
necessary by the city fathers.
Together with the city's call for
funds. a demand came from the state
TO send all available money in the vo-
cational. benevolent institution and
state general funds at once A war
rant for Sl.S00 was issued. Sl00 from
the vocational tax collections, $1,000
from the benevolent institution tax
collection and 500 from the state tax
collection.

Under the terms of the new Demo
cratic harmony pact" no attempt will
be made to instruct the delegates for
any of the candidates for nomination
on the state ticket. Each delegate will
be privileged to vote as he desires
1t is also rumored there will be an
other departure from the custom
which has hitherto prevailed at local
Democratic conventions. That is del
egates will be elected by wards and
not in bulk" as formerly. Also the al
ternates elected tonight will not
serve as delegates to the congressional
convention.
The congressional convention will
be held some time after the state con-
vention. probably at Connersville. and
delegates to that convention from
Wayne county will be chosen at meet
ings to be held at some date follow
ing the state conv entfon.
Just when the convention to nomi-
nate Democratic county ticket will
be held is not known, but it will be
held some time in the spring or early
summer.

Harry Miller, Is. at the chapel exer-
cises, as the winner of the poem con

selecting poems from the Earlhamite,
the college literary paper, with a view
of publishing an edition of Earlham

tive poem for this year, he announced
the contest toward the end of the last
semester. The complete edition, con-
tanning Mr.. Miller's winning poem, will
be published some time next month.
Thirteen entered the contest. The
decision to give Mr.. Miller

vince the voters that if the saloons are
voted out Richmond will be placed on
an unfair competitive basis with
neighboring wet towns and cities;
that the local saloons have always
been well regulated, and that without
saloons the city will be deprived of a
large part of it's revenue.
Stand of Orys.
The drys will advance the argument
that the saloons corrupt the morals of
the community, that savings would
double and business increase without
them and that pauperism and crime
would be greatly reduced.
In fact the voters must prepare
themselves for vigorous three weeks
bonn bardment from both sides.
Today corps of dry workers were
busily engaged in going over the taS
books at the court house. but had no
statement to make concerning the pur-
pose Of their activities.
Probably next week election officers
to represent both factions at the polls
will be selected.

NO Joy RIDING"
Commissioners Plan Eventu-
ally to Construct on Chassis
of Machine a Combination
Ambulance and Patrol.

Following the solemn pledge Of Will
metropolitan police commissioners,
that if council would appropriate ST.

chine would never be used for 10y
riding" purposes, council, with a grin,
passed the appropriation ordinance, up
for third reading last night. 1t is

car offered by the Davis Motor Car
Company of this city.
Five passenger automobiles were
offered the police board by the West
colt Motor Car Company and by the
Wayne Works. but these cars were
not so attractive to the police COM
missioners and Chairman Oscar Will
liams of the special council commit
tee as the Davis machine.
The Westcott and Wayne Works
cars, Williams and Eversman told the
council, were older cars and had seen
harder service than the Davis machine
which is practically new, and the
terms offered by the latter company
In the way of equipment and guaran-
tee, were much more satisfactory.
Will Rent Ambulance Horse.
The new police automobile will not
be paid for until the city receives its
spring installment of taxes, but will
be put into service as soon as the po-
lice barn in the city building Is made
ready for its occupancy. The car will
take the place of the old horse drawn
patrol wagon and the horse will be
sold. The amount received being ap-
piled to the purchase of the automo.
bile. The ant1quated and dilapidated
ambulance will still remain in ser
vice and horse rented from a nearby
livery barn whenever there is an am
bulance call.
1t is planned by the police commits
siOners to eventually construct on the
chassis Of the new machine a combi-
nation patrol and ambulance equip
ment. In the meantime the machine
will satisfactorily serve the purpose OF
a patrol and emergency car. Hereto.
fore the police department has been
greatly handicapped in responding to
emergency calls, having neither auto
mobile nor motorcycles.
Appreciates Efficiency.
Before the passage of the appropria
ton ordinance Councilman Russell in
quired if it we're not possible to pur
chase cheaper machine, but when in
formed that no satisfactory car could
be secured for less than $1,000 he
readily voted for the bill, as did all
the other councilmen. He informed
Mr.. Eversman that his vote was an
appreciation of the efficiency Of the
police department and to further i'm
prove this efficiency.
The Davis car is almost new and
has been used only as a demonstra
ton car New tires have been provid
ed and other minor equipment and a
six months guarantee goes with it. A
few days ago the company received
an offer Of $1,15O for the car, but il
was held for the city until today to
see what action would be taken by
council.

BEGINS FIGHT EARLY
ON THE PESKY FLIES
Robbins to Meet With Board
of Health This Week to
Discuss Matter.

Mayor Robbins announced today
that some night this week he would
meet with the members Of the health
board and discuss ways and means Of
waging a vigorous war on the pesky
flies this spring, summer and fall. u.s.
ing the new so-called anti-fly ordi-
nance as the weapon.
This ordinance will be enforced to
the letter." said the mayor, but what
| want to discuss with the members of
the board of health is the time for
placing it into operation. Under this
ordinance manure boxes must be
screened, slops and garbage placed in
covered receptacles and it also pro-
vides other sanitary precautions. This
has been hard winter on poor people
and even those in moderate circum-
stances and the equipment required
by this ordinance will cost each
householder some money, so I want to
give everybody all the time possible to
secure this equipment. / think it will
be decided to place the ordinance in
effect about a month after we hold
our meeting
The mayor expects to prepare a lit
tie booklet tersely pointing out the
necessity Of observing the anti-fly Or
dinance and during the month of
grace" these pamphlets VIII be dis
tributed by garbage wagon drivers to
homes where sanitary precautions are
not observed as they should be-
The mayor says there has been
quite a little complaint over the fact
that ashes in many alleys have not
been removed for about two week
1--WE must plead guilty to that
charge" Mr.. Robbins continued, but
1t has been almost impossible for US
to keep up alley condition to the stan
dard during that time because of the
abnormal snowfall which has compell-
ed us to use all our regular wagons
and five extra wagons to haul from
the streets. Just as soon as possible
the alleys will be cleared uD."

Helped coIored Poet.
Not only the poor but the colored
people of Richmond, reserve warm
places in their affections for Mrs. Sci
by, for this quaint, kindly, shrewd
woman was the first to discover the
genius OF the famous bard of the col
ored race, the late Paul Lawrence
Dunbar, now recognized as one Of the
greatest Of American poets, and 1t
was she who encouraged and minis
tered to this remarkable literary
genius.
When only a ragged little colored
boy roaming the streets OF Dayton she
heard of his peculiar talent and
brought him to Richmond and gave
him a room in her home. She intro
duced him to the late Isaac Jenkin-
son and to Edgar Tiff, in whose IL
braries the boy lived for hours at a
time, reading and studying to his
hearts content, then returning to the
home of his sponsor for food and
shelter. Soon Dunbar's talent devel-
oped and his fame as poet became
nationwide. Up to the time of his
death he lovingly gave all credit for
his success to the Richmond woman
who rescued him from poverty.
Today Mrs. Selby is greatly inter
ested in the career of another color
ed boy, Wesley Howard of this city,
studying the violin at a Boston con-
servatory of music. She rendered
much assistance and encouragement
to this youth and she proudly declares
he will become as great master in
his art as Dunbar did in his.
