TINES REAL.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Jan. "a.
The proposed new state highway
legislation in Indiana is not yet de
veloped to point of crystallizaton
in concreted form so that the legis-
lature can enact a law that will sat
isfy everybody.
This fact became apparent at a
long conference late yesterday in
the office of the Governor when
the Joint roads committees of both
houses met and discussed the road
bills that have been introduced by
Senator Duffey in the upper house
and Representative Oliver Bullef
in the lower house.
il was apparent Immediately that
there vas to be some overturning Of the
legislative dope bucket" concerning
prevalent ideas on What the new road
JIG Eislation should he. While no definite
action Of any sort was taken at the
meeting. the members Of the commit
tee agreed tentatively on several points
that viii form the basis Of amendments
to the bills now introduced. 4 PROPOSAL
Was put before the conference that it

Mr.. FREOERICkS WAS

The Bullets Bounced Off
His Chest and the Watch
man Ran Like a Rabbit.

There was lively little shooting
srap on Columbia avenue last night in
which one man, VIM. Fredericks thought
he was killed but ne wasn't even dented.
Frederick's boy not long out OF the
army came home and told his father he
had been robbed of four dollars
Tredericks who was formerly 2 sa-
loonkeeper, took his gun and started out
hcll-bent for robbers.
Now II seems that a spur Of the rail-
road running out Of the Standard Steel
Car Co. crosses Columbia avenue and on
this the Standard had number Of new
cars with two men to watch them.
The watchmen. whose names arc John
Noucheff Of SO Merrill ave. and Warner
MCINTYRE OF 294 I. state st. while on
their rounds happened TO step around
the end Of tho cars just when Fredericks
reached them.
Fredericks drew his revolver and ord
cred tho men TO hold Up their hands,
They declined and the saloonman told
thein again 10 hold them up. He then
shot three shots at Nouchefl but hit no
one.
Nouchef then fred four shots at Fred
ericIls two Of them hitting him in the
chest but doing no damage.
The amazed watchman seeing the bull
lets bouncing off Fredericks chest and
never having seen a bullet proof man
before. lost his nerve and ran. bring
ing up IN the swamp With water up to
hia knees.
Frederlcks thinking he vas wounded
auto death went home called UP the po-
ice and a doctor but when the delega-
tion arrived all that wos found on Fred
ericks were two little red marks on his
chest where the bullets had hit him
Nouchef was arrested but later re
leased when the facts OF the case We're
