here the sum voted for the Sheppard

too late to be included In the budget for
1923.
However, with the good VIII Of tho
Administration and the huge vote IN IA
vor Of this measure, Mrs. Ellis Yost and
others of the Sheppard Towner commit
tee profess no anxiety that the amount
will be forthcoming from the Appropria-
ton Committee. Most Of the money VIII
go to the States to promote hygiene Of
maternity and infancy. but a small part
viii be retained for administration by
the childrens bureau
Another item of great interest TO WON
en-. the sum for the bureau Of educa-
ton, remains the pitiable amount II was
last year, namely $146 800, but It is arous-
ing little excitement one way or another
because either the new reorganization
plan or the Sterling -Towner bill will
change the status Of education in the
Federal Government In the near future.
As for the huge appropriations for the
Army and Navy which loom in the
budget about as big as they did last
year, women are giving vent to their
feelings through the national council
for the reduction Of ornaments. with
which most Of them are affiliated. The
council has a representative, Mrs. Ray

1IOOsier Schools TO Honor Taking
of Fort SdckUiIle at Vmcennes
by General George Rogers Clarke

freezing water, which came to their
waists and sometimes higher, and, carry
ing their rifles and powder horns above
their heads, proceeded over the bot
toms till they reached the channel Of the
river. They swan the horses over the
channels, loaded them again, and went
on to a hill, where they spent another
night in this waste of water. Having
had nothing to eat for two days, they
we're in a deplorable condition and Sc
rious situation
They set about making more canoes
and had the good fortune to capture a
canoe carrying Frenchmen VINO had been
sent out from Vincennes on scout duty.
The Frenchmen added to the discourag e-
ment of Clark's men by telling them
chat the whole country around Vincennes
WIS under water and that 1t would be
impossible for them to reach the fort.
Clark, however, pushed on until he
reached the Wabash. Fortunately, one Of
his men shot a deer, which provided them
with meat and put new heart into them.
Nevertheless, some OF the French creoles
gave out and wanted to return. Other
men took to the idea and the enter
prise trembled In the balance. In the
company there was a tall Virginia ser
geant feet 2, on whose shoulders
Clark placed his drummer boy. To the
sound of his drum the men plunged again
into the icy food. There were two days
more of struggle and hunger. Then they
captured a canoe padded by Indian
squaws, and found in 1t a quarter of a
buffalo and other provisions.
Now they were near enough to Vim
cennes and FIT. Sackville to hear the
morning and evening guns.
Clark next surrounded the fort, which
covered about three acres on the river s
bank and whose walls were for ,ited with
several pieces of artillery and swivels,
threw up q slight breastwork in front Of
this gate of the stockade, and announced
his presence by a rifle fusillade. A Brit
ish sergeant was seriously wounded and
the seventy-nine well-kept, well-fed, we'll
drilled British soldiers began shooting
away in every direction, ignorant Of the
exact location and strength OF those at
lacking. The Americans kept up their
rife fire so effectively that the British
were unable to use their mounted guns.
UNCONDITIONAL
SURRENDER"
Hamilton, known as the hair buyer
general" because he Is said 10 have paid
the Indians for the scalps Of settlers,
wished to make terms with Clark. The
latter demanded an unconditional sur
render and gave the British general one
hour in which to make up his mind.
During the hour party Of Indians,
friendly to the British, appeared with
scaIps of settlers at their belts. Clark
had them captured and then killed them
with tomahawks IN full view of the gar
rison. The garrison was thoroughly
| frightened and Hamilton surrendered
This was on Feb. rs, 1T79 The next
morning the British marched out and de-
livered their arms to the Americans and
the American flag was raised for the sec
ond time on Indiana soil

Highways and By-Ways

Copyright 1921, by Public Ledger CO
By RAYMOND CARROLL

NEW YORK, Feb. 23.-The problem Of
social relief in New York City, with all
Of it's religious, racial and economic ele-
ments, has reached the important stage
where Roman Catholics, Professionals and
Jews are working together. Bird S.
Coler, commissioner Of public welfare, is
the genius of this miracle with, his
INSTRUMENTATION child welfare and
hospital committee, on which serve six
Protestants headed by James II. Post;
six Roman Catholics headed by the Rev.
Robert F. Keegan, secretary to the arch
bishop, and six Jews, headed by Arthur
Lehman.
I'VE are advocating for individuals to
support their own religious organizations
first" said Commissioner Coler, "but for
them to do their non -sectarian charity
directly with the city. For instance,
Mrs. Nicholas +. Brady. active in Roman
Catholic circles; Mrs. Sydney Borg, active
in Jewish charity work, and Mrs. Willard
Parker, Jr., active in Protestant circles
are each of them social workers for the
City on Welfare Island our new name for
Blackwell's Island.
The numt err of social service agencies
in Greater New York is about three
thousand, which does not include church
The amount of money raised and ex-
pended annually by the agencies is es-
timated at $50, 900. New York City
itself, through its budget, gives annually
about $1,000. 900 to 100000 to the diff
ferent religions.
The first street car in New York City
was operated by the New York and Har-
lem Railroad Company upon Fourth ave
In TNN-n n y ~ .
years later the total street traffic OF
what is now Manhattan and the old city
OF Brooklyn, was 5O,S30,O The total
traffic for the fiscal year ended June
30, 1921, was 2,491, 909,17S The tremen-
dous increase in sixty years is a
reflection of the phenomenal growth AMI
development of the metropolis. With
the multiplication of transit facilities
the habit of using them has grown pro-
/ portionately; the per capita travel In
1850 was 43, and last year 1t was 437.
The street railroads of the city, includ-
/ ing subway, elevated and surface car
lines, have in actual use for transporting
! these millions of persons nearly two
thousand miles Of single track railroad.
/ To carry the passe ger traffic the street
railroads Of New York use about thirteen
: thousand passenger cars and have on
/ their payrolls about forty eight thousand
/ employees.
/ All Of the foregoing is information of
! interest in connection with the announce
+ ment of the bureau of valuation Of the
/ transit commission that the New York
transit lines were really worth just
1855, $50, 154 The valuation was based
upon the original cost Of the properties.
and the extent of the slashing is shown
by the fact that the companies carried
the properties on their books for $791,-
/ 45O, S39, which amounts to q 40 per cent
| cut
/ The city Of New York itself has IN
vested total Of 1926. 900, 900 in subway
construction This includes the expendi-
lures for the first subway as well as the
dual system, and also Includes the cost

Tells of Handling
Freight Shipments

One of the miracles Of modern freight
handling, which touches the problems OF
indianapolis and other Hoosler shippers
is described in a booklet upon the Man
chaster Transfer" which NJ. Wolf, general
agent for the Lehigh Valley Railroad
Company, SGT Lemcke building, is dis
tributing. The transfer is a station To-
Gated on the Lehigh Valley Railroad
eighty eight miles east of Buffalo and
consists of accommodations for trans
ferring, 10000 less than car load ship
ments every twenty-four hours. thereby
serving as a vast clearing house for all
less than carload freight shipped each
day from the East and that for the East
received from connections at the Niagara
frontier"

Women Watch Interests
as Budgets Are Pruned

dren's bureau is given a total of 1921, 040
instead Of S271, 040 for 1922 The salaries
and personnel remain the same, but $40,
600 are added to expenses and $4,000
"for investigation upon matters pertain
ing to the welfare of children and child
life" The women's bureau is given S100,
600 instead Of $4,000. The National
Woman's Trade Union League is par
ticularly interested in this item. Letters
have gone out from headquarters urging
members to ask their representatives in
Congress to remove the low limit OF
salary placed upon its expert -1aff last
year.
"As q consequence Of this reduction
Imposed on no other bureau in the Gov.
ernment) the womens bureau ha" lost
six Of its most valuable employees curing
the year, who resigned TO accept posi-
tons in outside employment at better
salaries"
The National Womens Trade Union
League, which has a very active legisla-
tive secretary here, is also aGitated about
the Sterling Lehlbach reclassihcation bill
for the civil service and has secured FIVE
other women's organizations to go on a
committee to support 1t.

Of real estate purchased for rapid transit
construction.
In 1870 the twin cities of New York and
Brooklyn decided to connect themselves
by bridge over the East River, erecting
the Brooklyn bridge at a cost of $685.
095, 900. Since then three other passenger
bridges have been hung across the same
waterway, and the city's total investment
in East River bridges is S97,959000. The
Harlem River, making the northern
boundary Of Manhattan, is spanned by
seven smaller bridges, which represent an
aggregate investment of $17,165,O00. Thus
the taxpayers of Gotham have spent on
bridges $115, 124, 900.
In operating a ferry line to Staten
Island from the foot of Manhattan, the
city of New York has another investment
of nearly $7,OO0,O 600 in water front prop
erty, terminals and ferry boats, and the
i same appurtenances for the municipal
ferry line from Manhattan to Thirty

calculating the cost Of the greatness Of

than decreases those items over 1922.
That was done at the request Of the

RECAPTURE OF
VINCENNES.
On Feb. Is he and his command came
to the two forks of the Little wabash
whose bottom lands were flooded. Five
miles Of icy water lay before them. There
were no boats. They built a rude canoe
and a small raft for the baggage taken
from the pack horses, waded into the
