OF Cherry. A friend in whose judy
nent he relied had directed him where
he could get just what he wanted in
the way OF weeping tree. Here it
was, and he proudly entered the gar
den and presented it to his prospec-
tive father-in-law
"U-um!" commented the old man
slowly, inspecting the gift with a crit
ical eye-"cau this a weeping tree, do
you?"
II don't call it that-it really is one,
and Of a very rare kind, too," pro-
nounced Martin, somewhat nettled at
the dubious tone of the old man..
The latter only shrugged his shout
ders, but helped as the tree was plant
ed in the front garden. Then Cherry
put her foot in it by intimating that

and savage and all day long nursed his
wrath.

Cherry" he Illuminated. "They don't
respect my opinions. I've good mind
to- stay in the city for a week!''
Martin did not do that, but he took
drink or two before he left for home,
and on the train unwisely got into a
game of cards in the smoker for
money.
Alcohol and excitement made him
reckless. They were in the most in
teresting phase of the game when
"Groveville,' was called out.
I'LL keep on" decided Martin. I'll
see the game out. Let Cherry miss
me-who cares! A lesson or two,
showing l have some independence,
will do her good"
This was how it came about that
the poorly self-governed young man
found himself at the end of the sub
urban railroad-at midnight. When he
left the train he faced cheerlessness
and discomfort. He had dozed after
the game at cards, and the train had
been run to siding at a junction
where there were three solitary houses
and no hotel,
A trackman informed him that It
was two miles to a thriving little city.

tel. Martin started down the lonely
country road.
It began to rain and Martin looEed
in vain for shelter. He got mired in
the road several times. Disgruntled
morose, at odds with all the world. in
his unnatural frame of mind, nurtured
for over twenty-four hours, he struck
out for distant light beyond a rocky
reach of land.
His progress led him to an old stone
building built out from kind of bluff,
Apparently it had been used as a
tool house at some time or other Its
door was open, light showed beyond
Q long hall. It was dismal, forbidding
looking, but Martin was glad to gel
out Of the. chilling blast. .>..,.

STATES CASE
Charges Hasty Action by
Competing Plant to Block
Proposed Purchase of El-
ectric Property.

An injunction against the Light,
Heat and Power company to prevent
the erection of new building and the
addition of electric machinery was sus-
tanned by Judge ComstOck in circuit
court today
The restraining order and Injunction
was filed by City Attorney Bond today.
He declared the hasty action of the
Light, Heat and Power company in
planning additions to the plant is an
attempt to initiate the price the city
will have to pay the corporation for
its electric holdings in Richmond and
vicinity, used and useful in the pro-
duction of electric current.
Mr.. Bond recited the action of the
city in the case, including the inves-
legations of the committee. the passage
of a resolution by council, signed by
Mayor Robbins, declaring that the bus
mess Judgment Of the city council
made it necessary to take steps for the
acquisition of the rival plant, and the
order of the public utilities commission
of Indiana for a public hearing on the
consideration, June Is.

heard the Light, Heat and Power com.
pany is hastily proceeding with plans
to install additional machinery and
make other improvements which will
swell the value of the plant no less
than $4,000.

ments and additions to the city light
plant enabling that plant to carry most
of the load of the city of Richmond
the purchase Of an enlarged plant such
as the Light, Heat and Power company
plans, is termed by the city attorney
the perpetuation of a wrong and fraud
which would be a great and irrepar
able injury to the city"
The injunction is the outgrowth Of a
visit of engineers from the United Gas
and Electric company of New York

company. recently. The engineers Sc
cured figures for plans for new build
ing to be equipped with machinery al
most doubling the capacity of the com
