And bring you nothing but a sigh.

To grant the wishes Of your heart

BY means that are beyond our ken,
And as his journeying vast IL made
He uses many q masquerade.

Just hustle like u willing elf,

FIRE!
Letters Burned

Some unknowlng guest at the
Hotel SEVERN last night walked TO
the elevator. pressed the button and
stepped back to wait for the car.
Having finished smoking a cigarette
the visitor began to look about for a
proper repository. Cuspidors are not
provided but large Urn-like contriv-
ances filed with fine sand are sub
stituted.
The guest, undoubtedly unfamiliar
with modern hotels. cast his eye in
the direction of the mail chute and
decided it was an incineratOr and de-
posted the stub in 1t.
A few minutes later the call of fire
was heard in the lobby and a post
office employee was called to open the
mail box from which smoke was issu.
ing. Six letters were practically de-
stroyed.

usual was suspected as he died.
1t was the great race which he lost
to Henry Direct, Lew Shank's race
horse, as told in Fridays contest
story, which cost Ivan his life. Taken
back to the junk yard in n sack, he
could not be put together again today.
There were q bushel Of parts left over
after he was assembled. The

SHANK PROPOSES
To CUT DOWN ON
ARRESTS IN CITY
Too Many Persons Being Held
for Minor Offenses, Mayor
Claims.

Too many persons are being arrest
ed in Indianapolis and too many poor
citizens taken into custody for minor
misdemeanOrs are having to lie all
night in jail or pay $25 to $50 to a
professional bondsman. declared
Mayor Shank today.
AS a remedy the mayor said he was
thinking of having a police captain
assigned to headquarters to inter
view all prisoners and the police
who arrest them to the end that those
who are charged with unimpOrtant
offenses and are Of good reputation
may be released on thei rown recog-
nizance to report in police court the
next day.
Il don't know what our jurisdiction
it. My plan might conflict with the
rover of the city judge" said the
mayor. I'm going to have the cor
poration counsel give me an opinion
on that
IF there's any way I can do it I'm
going to stop this business of making
so many arrests. Why, We'll have
arrested $4,000 people before the year
is out if we keep this up. I've looked
up records Of other cities and we're
25 per cent ahead of them on num-
Der of arrests.
If this keeps on there is going to be
a big howl for another police court.
hat will mean $500 or $40, 900 more
taxes for the people to pay. Besides
have a faint recollection that in al
most every speech I made before the
election last year l promised there
would not be so many arrests made"
One Of the mayors prediction
promises was that he would give
medal to the policeman who kept his
district the cleanest, but made the
fewest arrests.

returned down Meridian ST., disre-
garding traffic signals, made several
lefthand turns and pumped into the
hip pocket Of Mr. Hall r. Lowd with
serious consequences to certain prop
erty contained therein at that time.
AS for the washing machine, we are
afraid that this device also has found
defects. Our contest managers
used 1t last Saturday night In connec-
ton with certain weekend rites and
they reported that the vegetable fibre
is sprouting.

II do not know what kind Of vege-
table this vegetable fibre Is made
from" Mr.. Hall r. LOwd said. But
have a strong suspicion. At any
rate, since 1 applied 1t to my back 1
have sprouted several corns."
This would seem to eliminate the
washing machine also.
AS to the rubles we are in a dread
full predicament which will arouse the
sympathies of our contest saleemen.
For since we purchased these six
million rubles to be given as prizes
they have dropped IN value so swiftly
that we were compelled to burn them
last night to avoid going in debt. Our
accountant said that If we did not
destroy the rubles or otherwise get
them Off our hands at once we would
soon owe ourselves money.
SO ends the great Times Circulation

Adam Phaik and Abigail Applesauce
are gone. The rubber bungalow has
snapped off The pistol shoots curves,
the vegetable fiber washing machine
grows corns where it hadn't ought to,
and the rubIes treacherousIy tried to

But one word more. The Times will
not falter in it's obligation to keep
faith with the millions Of hard
working Contestants. Their chances
to win are the same as always.
