The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1914-03-05

Enthusiastic addresses were deliv-
cred at a meeting of the drys at the
First Presbyterian church Tuesday
evening. Among those who spoke
were Dr. S. R. Lyons, s. Z. Nichol-
son, F. G. Pickell, Robert L. Kelly,
DR.. A. L. Bramkamp, Pettis A. Reid,
DIR. c. S. Bond, E. G. McMahan, Lu-
cius Harrison, Rev. B. e. Parker, Jul
ius Huchens, J. T. Giles and F. G.
White.
Representing the ministerial asso-
citation DR.. Lyons said that every
preacher in the organization was back
of the dry movement. He said many
of them had not had time to attend
prohibition meetings but that they
were with the campaign heart and
soul.
"Of all arguments of the saloon
men, he said, the least sensible is
the statement that the saloons will
make the city better. Every cent that
is spent in one of the saloons is worse
than wasted. If you saw large num-
bers of men going down to the White
water river and letting their money
drift down the stream would you call
that money saved. Rather than have
them spend money in the saloon, we
had better advise them to throw it
into the river"
Speaks Of Students.
Principal Pickell of the high school
said that if he had only once chance
to strike the saloon he would like for
the chance to strike it right between
the eyes and lay 1t out.

proved very timely, for shortly there
after he was taken seriously sick and
was confined to his bed for many
months and the stipend granted HIM by
Uncle Sam will prove cf vast benefit to
him in his declining years. Nor is

GOV. MC-CREARY
OFFERS $3.50 REWARD
For The Slayer OF ]. Mort Rothwell.

Gov. McCreary has offered reward
of $3.50. for the apprehension of Dudley
Shelton, who shot and killed j. Mort
Rothweil in Grab Orchard a few weeks
ago, and at the same time shot Town
Marshal Sam Ramsey.
1t is thought that the reward will
prove sufficient incentive to bring Shell
ton into the hands of the law. The
authorities of Lincoln county where the
tragedy occurred, have been loath to
ask a reward for Shelton, being of the
opinion that they would be able to ap-
prehend him without it, but finally des-
pairing of this they concluded to ask it,
and they are firm in their belief that
the fugitive will soon be surrendered.
Mr.. Ramsey continues to improve, and
his friends hope soon to see him out.

CIRCUIT COURT.

Circuit court has been grinding pretty
effectually throughout the week, and
much important litigation has been dis
posed of. Judge Hardin has been un-
fortunate in that he has had a good
number of ''hung juries" in petty
criminal cases, which amounted to very
little, and the inability of the juries to
agree will put the Commonwealth to
unavoidable and excessive expense.
R. Lee Mitchell charged with false
swearing gets an indeterminate sentence
of from one to five years in the pen
itentiary, and John Watson, the negro
who strained the credit of the City of
Lancaster by buying feed from the
Garrard Milling Co., ostensibly for
their use, was given year and day

The WAR, DAY By
DAY.
SUNDAY.

A London dispatch states that two
German cruisers have succeeded IN
sinking fifteen English fishing boats in
the North Sea.
The Austrians admit heavy reverses
at Lemburg. The Cossacks in pursuit
have turned the well ordered retreat OF
the Austrians into rout.
The position of Paris is even more
critical. The German army is only
thirty miles from the French capital,
and every effort of the Allies to turn
the Kaiser's force has failes.
The Allies have, through their am
bassadors, signed compact not to quit
the war Individually, and that all peace
negotiations shall be in trlpllcate OF
France, Russia and England.
MONDAY.
Official reports say that the Belgians
have repulsed a German attack. upon
the City of Antwerp.
The German army invading France
was forced to retire at several points
along the 120 mile battle line before
Paris today, and the out look for the
Allies was much brighter.
That the Russians are stalking all
upon desperate effort to take Berlin
at all costs now seems certain. The
Russian army has been divided into two
large armies, one of which will march
upon Berlin and the other upon Vienna.
TUESDAY.
Gen. Pau wires the London Evening
News that the Allies won victory at
Precy SbrOise, in which the Imperial
Guard, under the Crown Prince of Ger
many, had been annihiliated by Brit
ish force
Paris reports that the Allies have adj
vance their left wing without much
opposition and that several engage
ments have favored the French and
British.
The Russian army operating in Gal
icla is reported still to be driving back
the Austrians.
The casualty list caused by the
blowing up of the British cruiser,
Pathfinder, by a mine in the North
Sea, resulted IN four men killed, thir-
teen wounded and PAP missing.
The population of Paris before the
war was 4, 400, 900, official figures today
shows population of 2.O1O, 900, owing
to the mobilization of the army and the
departure of the fugitives.
WEDNESDAY.
All eyes are conferred on the cam
paign in France, for it it felt that battle
proceeding there is the first real crisis
of the war and will have vital effect
on the final outcome.
A dispatch from Petrogard says there
ere signs of a general retreat of the
Austrians on there whole front. 1t is
also stated that Hungarian sentiment
