MOURNED As DEAD
Icontinued From Page one.l

kNOUSI0USQ UTOf1 raw VIVA
these conferences arrangements were
made to redistribute the requests OF
Martin Cranor. Until proof had been
established that Frank Ballinger was
not dead it had been planned to give
his share of the estate to his wife.
Frank Ballinger will not return to
Wayne county," member OF the fam
lily said today, when assured that 1t
was now generally known that he was
not dead. Satisfactory arrangements
have been made with his wife,
Spirttuaiists Skepticai.
Several disciples of Mrs. Murphy, a
spiritualistic medium residing in Econ
omy, Ind, are still reluctant to be-
lieve that the body of Frank Ballinger
does not repose at this time at the
bottom of a New Mexican lake.
II have talked with Frank Balm
gers spirit at seances conducted by
Mrs. Murphy and in these converse
tons he told me that he had been
drowned. learned from him that II
was not true that he had been killed
by Indians and his body thrown into
the lake by them. He said he had been
drowned while swimming said Frank
(Kara) Reynolds of Williamsburg.
Reynolds was one Of Ballinger's most
intimate friends. How can Frank be
living when l talked with his spiri,
at Mrs. Murphy's seances? l can not
believe the truth Of the report that he
is still living. Mrs. Murphy Is the
best medium in the country"
On the other hand there are former
friends Of Ballinger who talked with
his spirit, who are now frankly assert
ing that their faith in spiritualism has
received a rude jolt.
Son Of Sheriff.
Frank Ballinger was the son OF the
late Jacob Ballinger of Williamsburg
the last sheriff of the couny before the
county seat was moved from Center
vile to Richmond About nine years
ago he married Liberty Und) young
woman and purchased a farm between
Liberty and College Corner.
A short time later he sold this farm
and left for the west. He told hif
wife he would send for her as soon al
he got located. The next heard o.
him was when members of the family
were notified that his clothing hat
been found near a lake in a remote
section of New Mexico, and that i
was the general superstition that hi
had been killed by Indians and hi
body thrown into the lake.
l.. P. Meredith, at that time sheriff
of Wayne county, wrote to the au
thorities in New Mexico to make al
investigation, and they reported tina
in their opinion Ballinger had met will
foul play. He was then mourned TO
dead by his wife and other member
Of the family. It Is understood tina
since he babe her farewell in Libert.
eight years ago, Mrs. Ballinger has no
seen her husband.

POLICE RELAX EFFORTS
TO ENFORCE LITERALLY
COUNCIL s PARKING Law

Vehicles will be allowed to park
on Main street at least half an hour
and the police will not attempt to en-
force the parking ordinance literally.
said Chief of Police Goodwin today.
Because of complaints that have
been registered with the police relative
to the stringent regulations OF traffic
on Main street. under the new ordi-
nance the police department has de-
cided to construe the city ordinance so
that the country people. who wish to
trade with the business houses Of
Richmond. would not be inconven-
fenced.
THE ordinance Is unreasonable az It
is now" said Chief of Police Goodwin.
IF the present ordinance were en-
forced to the letter, it would be Inn

PROGRAM IS MAKING A
BIG HIT THIS SEASON
Chautauqua Program Now Running in
California.

For more than three months the
managers of the Ellison-White Chau-
tauqua System have been telling the
local committeeman about the won
dcrful Chautauqua program that is to
be given at Caldwell Chautauqua, but
regardless of the many nice things
that have been said about the attrac-
lions that are to come to ChautauQila
the local committeeman have been
waiting for the first Chautauquas to
open in California and to hear of the
first reports, and the local committee
men were made happy when they
heard about the way things were 60
ing down in California.
Stockton, California. opened its first
Chautauqua on the 18th of May. The
newspapers couldn't even spell the
word, to say nothing of knowing
what it meant, but after the first three
sessions the newspapers and people
generally began to wake up All three
city dailies of Stockton came out with
half page reports of the proceedings
and pronounced them absolutely the
best entertainments that had ever
been brought to Stockton The mer-
chants were so delighted with Nels
Darling in his wonderful lecture on
Our Town" that they gave a ban
quet at which four hundred represen-
tative merchants of Stockton were in
attendance. These same merchants
have offered him a very large sum of
money to come back and spend four
days in their city next winter.
And the band made bigger hit than
ever. The people just went wild over
IT., The newspapers reported that
when Signor cara sang his part of the
duet IN the Miserere from Ill Trova-
tore the people stood up and cheered
and waved their handkerchiefs madly
in the air 1t was remarkable event.
The Chautauqua has come and gone
at Stockton but everyone is talking
about it. They are to have a Chau-
tauqua next year and seven hundred
men and women of Stockton have
pledged to make it the greatest one
in all California.
Down at MERGED. the entrance TO
Yosemite National Park, the local
committee signed contract for the
Chautauoua before the end of the
third days session. Joseph E. Hill
secretary of the commercial club there
said that the program thus far had
Deen the. most successful and enter
tanning of any that he had ever seen in
all his publicity experience.
Selma, little city of two thousand
people turned out an audience of al
most three thousand people to hear
Ciricillo's Italian band. This is Selma's
hrst Chautauqua.
And so it goes through all of the
G;aiifornla cities. 1t is no wonder
then that local committeeman are
eiat.ed, These reports have vindicated
their Judgment of the attractions to

TWO FEEDERS FOR THE
WESTERN PACIFIC R r

George w. Fletcher, president of the
Idaho National Bank at Boise and also
president of the Winnemucca North
ern railroad, which it is proposed to
build IRON Winnemucca to Boise, was
IN Salt Lake last night. AT the Hotel
Utah he asserted that the Winnemuc-
ca Northern would be built if the
eastern capitalists who are interested
IN the road would carry out the tenta-
i've agreements reached while he was
IN the east. The fasteners are in
tercsted in the ultimate outcome of
the Westrn Pacific railroad and are
determined that the Idaho lines be
feeders of the Western Pacific. Mr..
Fletcher says that if the residents Of
Idaho and the Jordan Valley in Ore

which they have made, that it will

ton OF bond issue if it is assured
that in Idaho, Nevada and Oregon the
people are willing to give at least S4-
100000 to the project in cash and
rights of way.
in addition to the building of the
Winnemucca Northern. which extends
from Boise to Winnemucca. through
the Jordan Valley, we must also build
the line from Twin Falls to Wells
New. to connect with the Western
Pacific: One of the richest farming
countries in the world lies in the
Jordan Valley. while it is universaIiv
known that the Twin Falls country
IS one of the greatest producers OF
