NO REPORT MADE ON
CONDITION OF MAYOR

No report has been made public as
to the condition of Mayor w. w. Zim-
norman since his removal to a sani-
tarium at Oxford, O., Thursday. 1t Is
stated by those who were familiar with
the mayors condition prior to his
leaving the city that he was i'll and
they would not be surprised if he re-
manned at the Oxford institution for
an indefinite period.
1t also was stated Saturday that for
a short time after he left the Oxford
sanitarium in August and returned to
Richmond to resume his official duties,
the mayor conducted himself in an
exemplary manner, but that he soon
resumed former habits which, it. is
alleged, resulted in his nervous col
lapse last July, with the result that,
when he was again taken to Oxford
last Thursday his condition was such
as to give his friends cause for alarm.
The fact that Mayor Zimmerman
was again unable to perform the
duties of his office was a matter of
general comment in official circles as
soon as it was reported that Dr. Zim-
norman had been taken to Oxford.
1t would occasion no surprise If the
mayors condition would be a subject
for general discussion at the next
council meeting. There were reports
that council was again contemplating
against the mayor, but no definite plan
Of action along that line had been
formulated Saturday.

FUN, SERIOUSNESS
MINCLE AS KIWANIS
CLUB GETS CHARTER

Brimful of pep" overflowing with
wit and enthusiasm which knew nc
bounds, members of the local Kiwanis
club, together with visiting delega
tions from nearby cities, gathered
in the X. of P. temple Friday evening
for a dinner and formal presentation
of the Richmond charter by Col. J. B
Mccullough, of Marion, governor OF
the Kiwanis Clubs of Indiana.
Large delegations from Muncie, In
dianapolis, Kokomo, Anderson, New
castle, Connersville, and Marion were
present. Kokomo had the largest
number present but for unbounded
fun the Muncie crowd took the flag.
1t was cosmopolitan assem- bly,
representatives being present from
practically every business or occupa
tion in the city, and ranging in age
from 21 to 60 years.
Rae Principal Speaker.
DR.. ]. J. Rae, president of the Ro-
tary club, and pastor of the First
Presbyterian church, was the guest OF
honor and principal speaker. His talk
was humorous in the main, but in his
characteristic fashion he closed his
remarks with a serious strain that i'm
pressed all those present.
DR.. Rae let out the secret that the
recent ball game between the two
clubs, Rotary and Kiwanis, was
fixed" before hand. This was done,
to be in STYLE" he stated
Emphasizing the fact that there is
plenty of room in Richmond for both
clubs in the field of public endeavor,
and that the two should be mutually
helpful and work in splendid accord
and close relationship" DR.. Rae said
there was nothing the two could not
accomplish.
Outlines Opportunities.
He outlined three things as a cri-
terra: First, the best things in life
are close at hand-not far out yonder;
secondly, there is keen enjoyment in
all work done, If we can but realize it.
hence we have a right to rafting
good time out of our work; thirdly, we
will get the best out of life by taking
all the help we can where it is freely
to be had, by virtue Of hard work and
high aspiration"
In the name of the Rotary club, he
bade the Kiwanis "Godspeed.'
McCuIloch Gives Charter.
Mr.. McCulloch presented the char.
ter with an informal but impressive
talk in which he called attention to
the ideal of service before the XII
wants clubs.
Beecher Dixon made the speech OF
acceptance for the local club and
stated that "The path ahead if full IF
duty, but we will follow the hint of
DR.. Rae and find that it is full of
fun as well as worth while jobs fo:'
the community good. We hope 10
never be found wanting when needed
in community service"
Several visiting Kiwanians made
short talks expressing the enthusiasm
of the club, and numerous kilograms
from all over the country were read.
congratulating the local club on being
admitted to the organization, and the
splendid start they had made.
Reports on the Kiwanis-Rotary base

BANDITS BOARD MAIL
TRAIN, BIND CLERKS;
HAUL Undetermined
(By Associated Press)

CHICAGO. Sept. 25.-Railroad and
postoffice officials today were check.
ing up their records to determine the
value of registered mail taken from
northbound Illinois Central train Nc
2, known as the New Orleans limited,
which was held up last night by two
masked bandits, who escaped. Esti-
mates placed the value of mail, taken
from six sacks, at from a few thous
and dollars to 100000.
The bandits, for whom a search was
under way in Chicago and Northern
Illinois, boarded the train at Tucker,
Illinois, so miles south of Chicago,
when it was stopped on a block sigma!
entered the mail car, bound the five
clerks and rode almost into Riverdale,
just outside the city. There they
pulled the bell cord stopping the train
and leaped into the darkness.
Police Seek AccompIiee.
Police said they were working on
the theory that at least one of the
men was an accomplice of Horace
Walton, of st. Joseph, who was killed
by the police after he had taken
nearly 100000 from the same train
and the same clerks last May. Rec

and bearing the names of the clerks,

COST OF TRAVEL
IN EUROPE IS
MOUNTING HIGHER

Budapest, Sept. 1.-THE cost of
travel for Americans in Central Eu-
rope and Balkan countries is reach
ing extortionate proportions through
the tendency to charge Americans
the same price for passport vises as
that of the American government for
foreigners, which was recently in
creased from 81 to $40. If this ten
dency is continued. an American in
the course of a few days journey
passing through several frontiers. may
have to pay $50 to $50 in vises.
For travellers of all nationalities,
however, the charge has been rapidly
increasing during the past six months.
The Germans began the high charges
demanding SIS. Then Austria follow
ed suit with the same charge and
Hungary and other countries have
been obliged to make like charges.
Because of the huge revenue so OBJ
tairable, passports are severely ex-
amined, more SO than in war time.
Under pretext of obstructing boil
shevik travel, guards at frontiers
ruthlessly turn back travellers with
out proper vises.
Because of this unneighborly
practice, it is difficult for citizens of
foreign country to pass homeward.
Budapest is now full of thousands of
people who. under the new frontiers
fixed by the Peace Conference, are
subjects of Rumania or Jugo-Slavia,
but cannot get passport vises home
to their property. In one instance
Americans used their good offices to
get vises for two widows, form erly
.Hunga rians but whose farms are now
in Serbia. They had waited eight
months to get permission to travel
$50 miles.
The office of American High Com
missioner Grant-Smith at Budapest
is daily beseiged by hundreds of
people who wish to go to America
or to secure help to reach their
homes in Czecho S1ovakiai, or other
countries.
