TOOK DOWN PICTURE OF
WIFE TO SWEAR AT 1T

NEW YORK. June 9.-Unusual
forms OF cruelty were alleged in the
affidavit Of Mrs Grace Edna Web
ster. who. in the Supreme Court
withdrew her application for ALI
mony in a suit for separation against
Frank Emerson Webster. a con-
tractor. of 457 Columbus avenue.
Mrs. Webster alleged that in 1914
her husband frequently locked her
in a bedroom and that one Of these
imprisonments was for three weeks.
Another act charged by Mrs. Web
ster was that Mr.. Webster some
times brought home steaks and
chops, which he would have her
cook. but OF which he refused to
permit his wife to eat.
During the last year Mrs Web
ster continued in her affidavit. Il was
the custom of her husband to take
down her picture from the wall and
swear at IL and then on leaving the
house order his children not TO re-
store the picture TO the wall. Their
three children range in age from
twenty-five to twenty-five years.
Mrs. Webster's motion for ALI
mony was on the calendar. She

TAX REVISION
TO come
Congress to Defer Import
ant Question Until Ses-
sion Next Year
NEW TARIFF BILL
HAS RIGHT OF WAY

Special to The Evening Journal.
WASHINGTON. June 17.-No at
tempt will be made to revise the tax
schedules this year. This decision
has been reached by the leaders. and
It will undoubtedly be officially COM
municated to the country in the near
future. The information on which
this statement is founded comes from
a source the authenticity Of which
cannot be doubted.
It is contended that Il will be inn
possible to pass the Fordney tariff
bill before November next. and then
Congress hopes to be able to take a
little respite. Unquestionably the
Senate will rewrite the bill. and Il is
equally certain that It will undergo
another revision when it gets into
conference.
The lower House will take some
rest during the "dog days" but will
be called back into active service
when the Senate reaches a decision
on the Fordney measure. II is pointed
out that there is nothing extraordi-
nary aDout taking three or four
months to reach a decision on a
tariff measure
Although the Democrats were in
complete control OF both Houses OF
Congress in 1913. just as the Repub-
licans entirely dominate the situation
now. the Senate had the Underwood
bill in its hands FIVE months before
taking a vote on Il.
In less than six months from this
date, the first regular session Of tho
Sixty-seventh Congress will open. II
the Senate takes the 1913 session as
a precedent. snow may be flyina
even in Washington before the new
tariff bill is approved by the Presi-
dent.
II is therefore deemed to b,
physically impossible to revise the
tax laws on anything like a compre.
bensive plan before 1922. This is ad
mitted to be the hardest task tina
confronts Congress. and some OF IN,
leaders are frankly afraid Of il.

The Annual Art Exhibit

The twenty-fourth annual exhibition of In
diana artists, which will open at the public art
gallery on Sunday, offers the citizens of Rich
mond a splendid opportunity to see the work of
almost 40 artists of Indiana. They will show
etchings, wood block prints, pictures in OIL pastel
and water color. AS usual, the Richmond group
will be represented with a number of produc-
tions.
The Richmond Art association has been the
leader in popularizing art in Wayne county.
pioneer in this work, it long ago enlisted the
schools in the movement and by the holding of
exhibits in the public gallery, brought the SUBJ
ject of art appreciation near to hundreds of our
citizens.
A visit to the gallery when exhibit is be-
ing made will convince skeptc very quickly
that all classes of our citizenry have developed a
liking for good pictures and other art work. Par
ents accompany their children, and young and
old wander through the rooms enjoying the work
of the artists. This is the best proof that the
Art association really has accomplished definite
purpose in Richmond. If only few persons cul-
tivated an acquaintance with the gallery, it
might be said that the value of exhibiting pic
lures was entirely too restricted to make it worth
while When the public generally, however, visits
the gallery, you may rest assured CnaL genuine
appreciation for the beautiful exists in Rich
mond.
Some critics, who can see only the dark sides
of the life of our community, may scott at the
unsekish work of the members of the Art asso-
citation and assert that it's members hight have
been given their time to better purposes all these
years.
visit to the gallery next Sunday is the reply
to the argument of these men and women.

Purdue road school, Recognized as an authority
on road construction and maintenance in Indiana,
and with an excellent system in Wayne county to
back up his theories, Mr.. Jones is always heard
with attention by the road men who attend the
school.
Purdue University authorities are glad to OBJ
tain his presence. Many road men are excellent
theorists but few of them are practical men, who
base their observations on experience gained in
the actual maintenance of roads.
Macadam roads are not classed with the per-
manent highways, and consequently their main
tenance presents many interesting problems, not
only from the engineering but also from the
financial standpoint. Mr.. Jones is eminently
qualified to discuss this topic. The system which
he put into operation in Wayne county has at
tracted attention in many quarters, and he will
be able to give much valuable data to the road
men who attend the Purdue courses.

improvements in the Light Plant

Only a carping and fautfinding critic of the
worst sort will be disappointed in the report of
j. ID. Lyon, consulting engineer, showing a
marked improvement in the condition of the mu-
nicipal light plant. The installation of repairs
and the general improvement in the condition of
the machinery as whole comes as gratifying
bit of information to a public which for months
has heard nothing but discouraging reports about
the utility. @e-..a5 10 r..
Every power user in Richmond and the thou
sands of domestic consumers, who have been an
noyed by the frequent Interruptions in service
and have feared suspension of the whole plant
because needed repairs had not been made, hope
that Engineer Lyon will soon have the plant in
excellent condition.
The utility is one of the most valuable assets
of Richmond, a piece of property which its cit
liens want to keep intact, and an investment
upon which they wish to realize results Those
to- whom the plant means nothing, of course, care
little if the property is maintained at high point
of efficiency. Some of them would like to see
the machinery fall to pieces, in order that they
might have the pleasure of saying, Il told you
so,' and of chuckling over the disinterested and
unselfish effort of the manufacturers who have
been working for weeks to restore the plant to
its former state of usefulness.
Competent engineers have maintained all
along that the plant not completely neg
lected that it could not be put into good running
order in short time at comparatively small
expense Mr.. Lyon is demonstrating that fact,
and his inspection few days ago resulted in his
opinion that noticeable progress had been made.
The saving of six to seven tons of coal daily be-
cause of repairs in the boiler room indicates the
changes for the better that have taken place.
sr. The ta,. ayers hope that the plant will soon
be in excellent condition, that the utility need
not be pointed out as municipal failure. 1t has
been one of the best managed municipal utilities
in Indiana, and there is no reason why, with
proper attention to details of production and man.
agement, the city cannot continue to merit the
praise of other municipalities for it's light plant.
