Scores Couple For LoUe
of the Vampire Stuff
Child Plays Leading Role in Old Triangle
Drama Aired in Court.

Home. sweet home is a dead language
to you. If I spoke in terms of flats and
pretty women, you would understand me !;
but I don't speak your language" said
Judge Frank Lahr of the juvenile court
late yesterday to Lewis McMurray, a
stock buyer at the Union Stock yards,
who is charged with the neglect OF his
child.
For some time the court had heard
the old, old story Of a husband who was
accused by the wife Of being unfaithful
and the result was a broken home.
On one side of McAIurray sat his wife
with her little daughter and TO his left
was Miss Edith Radcliffe, formerly OF
1923 North Meridian street, who was
charged with contributing to neglect OF
the child by being the alleged magnet
which drew McMurray away from bis
pretty little home, wife and baby.
HE HAD KEY
AND SHE CHECKS.
Counsel admitted that McMurray had
and is providing well for his wife and
child by giving them $50 week in ad-
dition TO the home in which they are
living at this time.
Policewomen testified that while they
were on a trip of inspection to a former
apartment of Miss Radcliffe that McMur,
raw opened the door of the apartment
with a key. Mrs. SIcMurray testified that
she found a check book showing that
certain sums of money, one as high as
$3.50 had been made out to Miss Rat
cliffe.
Counsel admitted that McMurray had
agreed to make a $1,000 cash settlement
in return for a complete release from
any responsibility for his alleged COM
panionship with Miss Radcliffe. This sum
was to cover, counsel stated, certain IN
iuries said to have been sustained two
wears ago by Miss Radcliffe in an auto
mobile accident during a trip to Louis
vile. Ky. Attorney Taylor Gronninger
stated that McMurray proposed this
settlement Attorneys admitted that a
written agreement was entered into by
the parties for this sum.
TOO MUCH MONEYS
NOT ENOUGH MORALS.

means to pinch money cut Of men Tor

ASK SCHOOL FOR
COLORED NURSES
Necessary for City Hospital
Work, Board Told.

A request that the board of public
health give consideration to the estah-
lishment of a training school for colOred
nurses, who would wait upon patents
in the cOlored wing at the city hospital,
was made to DR.. Herman G.. Morgan,
secretary of the board, by a committee
from the Aesculapian Society, negro
medical society composed Of the thirty
colored physicians Of Indianapolis, today.
The doctors pointed out that the pro-
vision of nurses of their own race for
colored patients would eliminate friction
which unavoidably exists between white
nurses and colOred patients, would help
relieve the serious shortage of nurses
which the city hospital has faced for
many months and would give Indianapo-
lis negro girls an opportunity to get
into field of service they long have de
sired to enter. They said that such a
plan is In operation in the city hospitals
of Kansas City and st. Louis, with great
success. This city, they declared, should
solve its negro hospital problem, be.
cause there is greater pc centage of
negro population in Indianapolis than in
any other northern city.
The delegation made it plain that thep
desire the facilities for negro nurses and
patients to be distinctly separate from
those of whites in order that unpleasant
conditions which sometimes arise may
be avoided.
DIR. Morgan promised to lay the mat
ter before the board at its meeting next
Monday evening.
The committee was composed of DR.. A.
FL. Wilson, president Of the Aesculapian
Society; DR.. l.. A, Lewis and DR.. Sumner
A. Fnrniss, member Of the city council.
They were accompanied by George p
Stewart, editor of the indianapolis Re
corder. negro lhwspaper.

FARM SCHOOL.
PROPOSED FOR
YOUNG WARDS
County Commissioners Con.
slider Changes in Care
Of Children.

Sweeping changes in the care of all
children in county institutions will result
If plans of the Marion County Commits
sioners are carried out.
Following a conference of rhe cou~tv
commissioners with Judge Frank Lair
of the Juvenile court, 1t became known
that the board is considering a plan by
which a farm tract will be purchased for
the purpose of erecting a school ana
dormitories for all children who are
wards Of the county.
The commissioners have found that it
would not be practical to combine the
children's institutions with the poor farm
and Julietta asylum. The plan favored
by the commissioners is to move the poor
farm to the Julietta site. 1t is contended
that the Julietta site is large enough
to accommodate the buildings of both
Julietta and the poor farm.
| As the next step in grouping all insti-
| buttons for the purpose of reducing the
cost of maintenance, the commissioners
feel that it would be advisable to buy
large tract of land on which to build
/ school and other buildings for the chill
/ dren who are wards of the county.
''If the plan is carried out, the new in
stitution would be similar to Whites In
stitute, but would be open only to the
juvenile wards of Marion County," Judge
Lair stated. "Such an institution would
! permit the court to conhne certain classes
/ of boys there instead of sending them
/ to the Indiana Boys School until they
/ are 81 The other day l committed IA
/ year-old boy to the boys school He will
stay there at least six years. His com
| panions, who were of age and Jointly
charged with vehicle taking, went into
the Criminal Court, pleaded guilty and
received a year on the Indiana State
! Farm"
The commissioners have taken no dein-
! tie steps but are gathering dt ia to pre-
/ sent before the Marion County council
at the next meeting.

means something to her mother and
father. then probably there will be time
to discuss morals"
Miss Radcliffe admitted that she may
not be without fault but stated she was
not to blame for the breaking up Of his
home. She denied that McMurray paid
the rent of her apartment and also de-
MED that he gave her a diamond ring
but admitted that he had given her
small gifts"
The evidence showed that McMurray
POSED as single man when he first met
Miss Radcliffe. Miss Radcliffe stated that
she has returned to the home OF her
mother outside of Indianapolis.
Il am lost to know what to do in this
case" said Judge Lahr. The trouble
is that all three Of you have forgotten
the fundamental principles Of life. You
are living in an artificial world. The
language you speak, l do not speak. That
is the trouble in this case. You have
ears, but you can't hear. You have eyes,
but you are blind.
THIS is THE
VAMPIRE STUFF"
81 am a gold hunter, not hunting for
gold mines, but for the good which Is
in men and women. Life is series Of
falls and getting ups.
THE trouble is you have turned into
sports. You have lived so much in the
artificial world that common sense does
not appeal to you. This is the vampire
stuff-the kind you read of in books"
Mrs. McMurray inquired Of the Judge
if she should be- expected TO live with
man who runs after every Dick and
| Harry.
This court has eliminated many Dicks
and Harrys," the court replied. This
court has the power to do that and has,
many times"
McMurrayN admitted that he no longer
desired to live with his wife.
Judge Lair stated that he would find
McMurray and Miss Radcliffe guilty az
charged, but would withhold judgment.
This will give all three of you a
chance TO start over" said Judge Lahr.
Judgment is withheld on the condition
that McMurray and Miss Radcliffe never
again communicate with each other in
any way.
Both parties agreed.
What is needed here is for each one
to be born over again. said the Judge.

MINERS, ROUTED
BY VIGILANTES,
WILL BRING SUIT
Result of Midnight Attack on
Foreign Laborers in HOOsier
Coal Fields.


PRINCETON, Ind. June 15.-some of
the foreign born miners run out of GID
san and Pike Counties by 500 miner
vigilantes were seeking vengeance today.
few of the Austrians forced to fee
from the construction camp of the George
A Enos Coal Mining Company east of
Oakland City last week were planning to
file damage suits against those raiders
whom they say they recognized.
Three or four foreigners tried to file
actions in the Gibson County Court late
yesterday, but the construction camp is
in Pike County and they intended to go
to Petersburg, the Pike county seat, to-
day.
Many Of the foreigners say they were
robbed of their savings and beaten by
the miners in their midnight drives to
stop the employment Of foreign labor in
local coal fields.
Except for the grand jury probe of the
viglantes' activities and possible action
by the victims, the case apparently was
at 8 standstill today, and the story Of
the miners crusade against foreign labor
promised to die down until the grand
jury report revives it.
Adjutant General Smith, here investi-
eating the furry for Governor McCray,
indicated today that 1T viii be unnec-
essary for the State TO take a hand in it.
He was in Petersburg today inquiring
about the raids at Petersburg, Hosmer
and the Enos construction camp. He
was at Francisco and other Gibson
County towns late yesterday.
II am confident that the prosecutor,
the Judge and the sheriff will be able to
handle the situation in Gibson County
through the grand jury" the adjutant
general said.
Pike and Gibson County authorities are
working in concert In the matter, because
the vigilantes came from both counties.
