THE TEMPLE TUMBLES.

A wrecked and fallen Temple en-
gagged the attention of the Ohio coun-
ty court and a multitude of witnesses,
Tuesday. 1t was case in which Ev-
erett Maddox was charged with hav-
ing carnal knowledge of female un-
der sixteen years of age. The boy
was also under sixteen years old.
1t was peculiarly a pitiable case.
The circumstances seem to be that
the girl, veola Temple, parentless
girl, of Hancock county, came into
the Fordsville country few months
ago, and proceeded to sow, with a
lavish hand, the seeds of immortality.
She lived for time with the family
of John Bellamy. Recently the girl
went before Esquire Ben Rice and,
after making a number of conflicting
statements as to the sharers OF her
immortality, had a warrant issued Tor
the Maddox boy. She also made al
fidavit before Esquire Rice that John
Bellamy had directed her as to whom
she should charge with the crme.
Judge Cook took jurisdiction In
the juvenile court. of the case against
Maddox, and after hearing the evil
dence, committed the boy to the care
of his father who gave bond for a
faithful discharge of his duty to the
boy, and with orders to make period
ic reports of the boys conduct. The
case of subornation of perjury against
John Bellamy was dismissed when
the girl swore with the same breath
that he was both guilty and inno-
cent.

new DRAFT BILL
BEFORE congress
Eighteen To Forty-Five Age
Limit Fixed Tues
day.

Washington, Aug. 5.-With an ur-
gent recommendation from Provost
Marshal General Crowder that 1t be
enacted without delay and a sugges-
ton that Sept. next might be fixed
as registration day for approximate
ly 100000 men throughout the
country the administration man
power bill requiring the registration
for military service of all men be-
tween the ages of is and As years
was introduced today in the Senate
and House.
Unless immediate steps are taken
to provide additional men, Gen. Crow
der said the weekly registration of
men as they attained 81 years of
age will be necessary to fill the draft
quotas after Sept. /, when only 1907
900 of the 1918 registrants will be
available.
Upon the introduction of the bill,
Chairman Chamberlain announced
the Senate military committee would
meet tomorrow to consider the bill.
He said he did not think hearings
would be necessary and only three or
four days should be required to re-
port the bill.
Chairman Dent of the House COM
mittee said since only three members
of the committee are in Washington
il was doubtful whether the bill could
be acted upon before the House re-
convened on August 10.
Suggestions made on the Senate
floor by Senator Curtis, of Kansas,
that the Senate abandon its program
of recesses and perfunctory sessions
until August "a, If the bill can be
favorably reported by the committee
within a few days, were endorsed by
Senator Chamberlain. However,
Senate leaders now in the city said
any plans to this effect would be held
in allegiance until the committee could
determine Just how much time would
be necessary for a thorough discus
sion of the bill.
Won't Wait For Order Numbers.
The bill would amend the present
selective service act so as to require
the registration of all men between
is and 20 years and 32 and As, in
elusive. While the total number of
men in the latter classes would to-
tai 1O,02S,973, Gen. Crowder esti-
mates the number who would be elgi-
ible for class 1 would only be 6O1,-
236, owing to exemptions for depend
ents or industrial and physical reas-
ons. Between Is and 20 years his
estimates show that 3,171,771 would
register, while 1,7S7,6O9 men would
be eligible for class 1.
After carrying out the programme
for July and August, Gen. Crowder
pointed out that only. 100000 of the
1918 registrants class would be left

1.-THE second and more difficult
question" Gen. Crowder's statement
added, lis how we can supply on
time the 10000 men required for
each of the succeeding months of
October, November and December.
The British-C Canadian treaty would
help out to the extent-it Is estimat-
ed-of about $4,000 men, which is
not even the conventional drop in
the bucket
"a minimum period of 80 days
is necessary to enroll and classify all
the men registered in the additional
classes suggested. We cannot, there
fore, wait for the completion of class
one, but must take men irrespective
of their order number as fast as
they find their way into class one"
Between 32 and As, Gen. Crowder
estimated there are 1O,O2S,973 males,
but taking into consideration those
married or who would be subject to
deferred classification because of
physical conditions or other reasons,
he estimated the met effective" at

Inmates the number of males at g.

SAVE THE CHILDREN.

The Parent-Teachers' Association
is engaged in the very commendable
task of providing pure drinking water
for Hartford's school children. A
sample of the drinking water, used
at the college, was sent to the State
Bacteriologist, and the chemical test
showed the water was impure and
unsuited for drinking purposes. The
remedy is a filter, and the members
of the Association appealing to the
public to subscribe sufficient funds
TO install filter. The cost will be
somewhere near three hundred dol
lars, and the amount should be Civ
en- ungrudgingly. The health OF our
children can not be computed In dol
lars and cents, and this public duty
should be met cheerfully. Commit
tees have been appointed to secure
the subscriptions, but in the mean
time contributions may be made at
the Bank of Hartford, at the Citi-
zens Bank, or to Mrs. X. r. Riley.
This is not call for charity nor a
test of public liberality, but a neces-
sary public provision for the protec-
ton OF the lives and health Of our
children,

the court directed him to take the
girl under his charge, in his own
county, Breckepridge, and IL he
could not control her to report the
case to the Breckenridge Juvenile
court. Arrangement were made for
Porter to take the girl home tomor-
row.
In summing up the case Judge Cook
made a talk that would have honor
ed a Circuit Judge with years Of
experience on the bench. He severe
ly censured Sam Maddox, father Of
the boy, for having given so imma-
ture youth papers of freedom, and
instructed him to re-assume his par
entail duty. Addressing the guar
dian of the girl he reminded him,
In strong terms, of both his lega!
and moral duty in the matter of the
care of his ward, and a.linonished
him that If he would not voluntarily
discharge his duty to the girl he
would rule him to do so.
The girls mother died when she
was only six years old, and her faith
err died about year ago. She can
not read or write. Her mental facul-
ties are immature, and she seemed
to have little regard for the sanctity
of an oath. Society is properly charg-
able with the girls delinquency, in
not sooner having rescued her from
demoralizilg environment.

Erin is the shillalah dance which a
number of young girls will give on
suffrage night at the high school au-
ditorium in connection with the dra-
matte Club play, "The Suffragette

boys in the folly steps will represent
ST. Patrick himself with knee
breeches, swallow tail coats and
conical hats adorned with the Irish
dudeen. Their partners will wear the
feminine garb of the seventeenth,
century with crisp tuckups and
caps.
The story of the shilalah is one
linked with the history of Ireland
and from the forest of that name
came the cudgels which the peas
natry used in their revels as pro
lection against disastrous end
The dance is merely fanclful ex-
preston of the idea.
In keeping with the general SUI

lalahs are brightly decorated with
green and white predominating. and
the effect is colorful and graceful.
