"There Is nothing the presiednt has
in mind" said Representative Under
wood, after leaving the White House
with which am not in accord and z
see no reason. why the programme he
will suggest should not be carried out
before adjournment. 4 If there is one
thing that every Democratic member
of the house and I believe 1t applies
to the senate as well--has his mind
set against, it is. extra session next
year. I do not believe there will be
one" d
Discussing the legislative pro-
gramme, Mrs. Underwood declared

FREE POUCH WITH PIPER

Men who chew tobacco dislike to
have to carry the plug loose in their
pockets. The tobacco is bound TO
pick up odd bits of cloth and dirt.
This is what makes the pouch so pop
ular with plug users. The American
Tobacco Company, realizing this de-
mand, has decided for a few days TO
give away free with every ten-cent
purchase of Piper Heidsieck a leather
pouch made of handsome tan leather.
The flap fastens tight with a patent
snap clasp that keeps Ii closed, yet
opens instantly at your touch.
This offer" says the American
Tobacco Company, lis made TO get
more men acquainted with the won
derful qualities of Piper Heidseick.
No matter what tobacco you thought
was best, try Piper Heidseick the
chew with the champagne flavor
That rich. wine like flavor never fails
to make a friend" Adv.

Butler Tells How HOOSier
ideas Were Received.

Rabbi Abraham CrOnbach. who att
tended the National conference of
Charities and Corrections in Memphis,
Tenn. last week as "a delegate from

Tuesday morning and i- prepare to-
give report 90 any organizatlou.

such problems before the most no.
table authorities on charities and cor
rectiOns in the United states, a. the
meeting of the conference.
Amos W. Butler. secretary OF indl-
ana's board of state charities has Just
returned TO Indianapolis from attend
ing the meeting. and IS enthusiastic
over the reception accorded Indiana s
if1;ls OF caring tor the inmates of her
institutions.
This is the first meeting that had
been held In the south i'm eleven years
and the awakening of the south To the
great social questions in that time was
forclbly impressed upon the visitors
To the meetings, Mr.. Butler said.
The task there U.s. a great one and
trained and experienced social work
ers are few. There ~ strong eUOrt
on foot to develop schools for social
service in that section TO assist IN
meeting the demand. one of the
southern speakers expressed this un-
folding OF the ideas of the south by
referring 10 the fact that the old at
titude was individualistiC and the new
attitude is social. that heretofore each
family had cared for its own and that
now they are coming TO realize the
necessity of the proper care of the
community and society in general.
Poor Relief Law Discussed.
THE Indiana poor relief law was
the basis Of discussion of one session
devoted TO state supervision of poor
relief and the law was very highly
commended. The almost uniform
opinion OF public officials, who are
informed regarding the conditions and
needs Of the care Of the poor was that
such a law as the one in use in this
state there was little need of other
laws. The Indiana people had
prominent part in the councils of the
National Conference. Perhaps the
things which stood out most prOmi-
nentiy were the enormous increase Of
mental detectives i'm this country and
the need of their proper care. The
colony plan OF caring for certain
groups of almost all kinds OF public
wards was a prominent feature in this
and reference was made TO the col
unies in Indiana for the feeble
minded epileptic and the new colony
for the insane and also 20 the move
ment for the new state farm for $sfort-
term Jail and workhouse prisoners"

BALLS HIT TIRES
AND KILLED MEN

OF all the stories told CT Pancho
Villa and his motor car corps In the
recent Mexican campaign, the tale
told and verified before a group OF
motor truck and tire men in Hous-
ton. Texas, recently. is winner in Its
class.
Not long since when Villas men
were making an advance near Ell
Tora one OF the motor trucks in the
main force ran out of gasoline. A
service truck loaded with gasoline, oil.
extra tires and complete repair out
fit was ordered up from the rear and
reflled the gas tank. The makch was
continued. and the service wagon then
waited for the rear guard to come up.
While the truck was thus resting In
the road between the main body and
the rear guard the federals under
Colonel Coo-Coo, made an attack on
the service car from the left nank.
All the service squad had in the way
of weapons was a sack OF Bull Dur
ham. n spy glass and a shotgun.
Nothing daunted. Corporal Pedro
ordered the spare Firestone tires. with
their steel rims, which the service
wagon carried. unloaded from the
truck and placed as Earricade. Be
hind this rubber and steel bulwarK,
Villas men felt safe.
las the federals fred. the bullets
rehounded and killed Colonel Coo
Coos men in great numbers; the gal
liant Coo-Coo himself being among the
FIVE killed or wounded. Thus weak
ened. the federals were forced to re-
treat When the rear guard came up
they found the service wagon crew
enjoying quiet game of Monte with
in the confines OF the rubber RAM
part"
In view of the effect this story may
have had upon Villa. 1t is suggested
that war correspondents look behind
..vsrv nile of Ffrestone tires they come
across, Considering the possibility OF
finding Pancho there ensconced en-.
loving a quiet game In safety.
