Showing of Presidents Picture
Caused an Outburst From
Delegates. Cummings De-
livered Opening Speech.

At the opening Of the Democratic
National Convention in San Francisco
which was at the noon hour Monday,
June 90, the great auditorium in that
city where the convention is in session
was filled by thousands of people.
Vice chairman Kremer. of the Ma
tional Committee, gave the signal.
and the bugler sounded attention.
The first notes of the Star Spangled
Banner brought the delegates to their
feet and a monster flag was dropped
from the ceiling to form a wall of
color behind the platform. The great
flag, in a few minutes was gathered
up slowly and as it rose it uncovered
the flag draped and illuminated pic
ture of President Wilson With this
there was a moments pause and then
wild shout rang from the floor. 1t
was caught up and echoed from all
sides. then there was such tremen-
dous outburst of applause and roar
ing as was never heard before. Vice
Chairman Kremer tried repeatedly to

BURGLAR GETS SIS
AND LEMON PIE
Enters Home of w. J. Worden
Saturday Eve. Chlorforms
Men Sleepers.

A burglar entered the rooms of
Miss Cecil Smith and her brothers,
Billie and Frank Smith, Saturday
midnight at the home of their parents,
Mr.. and Mrs w. J. Worden, who were
out of town visiting in Northern
Indiana. Miss Smith stated the burg
lar helped himself to cash amounting
to $25, three pieces of jewellery, and
in the kitchen he got delicious
lemon pie that had been made for
Sunday dinner
Miss Smith was awakened by the
burglar when he entered her room,
but she was so overcome with fright
that she was speechless and the burg
lar made his escape before Miss
Smith could awaken her brothers,
whom she claimed were chloroformed.
Miss Smith gave an acurate descrlp-
ton of the burglar to Chief of Police
Pate and Judge Brabandt, who are

CASE
FINALLY SETTLED
Lawsuit Envolves Finest Track
of Land in Perry Co. in lob
insport Bottom Land.

The case of Henry Lamb guardian
for Margaret Polk VS. Marion Polk,
to set aside deed and for the posses
sion of 100 acres of river bottom land
at Tobinsport was settled outside of
court last week after considerable
dickering on the part of both sides
during the court proceedings. The
case was tried in Cannelton having
been on the docket for about a year.
The case was filed for the Polk
heirs by Henry NJ Lamb seeking to
have Margaret Polk adjudged insane.
Prior to the death of her brother Ave
Polk. the two lived together on the
100 acre tract of farm land which has
been in the Polk family for more
than 100 years, lies on the point in
Tobinsport and is considered the I'm
est piece of land in Perry county.
After the death of her brother,
Miss Polk made her home with an
other brother. Marion Polk. While
living there she made a deed giving
him this 100 acres of land if he would
take care of her the rest of her days.
Soon after the suit was filed by Lamb
to test Miss Folks sanity the case
was tried and she was found incapable
of attending to her own business and
Lamb was named her guardian Polk
was not satisfied and asked for a
new trial
1t is stated the case was finally
settled in this way: Lamb pays the
court costs, including the attorney
fees as we'll as the attorney fees of
Minor & Ewing for resisting the in
sanity proceedings; RECEIVERS the farm
and gets the rental from it for 1920.
Polk, the defendant, RECEIVERS $2,O53
for money he advanced for debts, and
the rent of the farm for three years,
for the board and keep" of Margaret
