BORUMS ASK
$4,000 FOR
DAY IN JAIL
Suits Charge Former Sheriff
Refused to Permit Re-
lease on Bond.

Two suits. seeking $4,000 damages
each, were filed in Federal Court today
against Robert f. Miller. former sheriff
Of Marion County, and his bondsmen, the
Hartford Accident and Indemnity Com
pany of Indianapolis by Joseph H.
Borum and Title A Borum, both of
who give their address as Hamilton
County, Ohio.
Each of tho suits is based on alleged
false Imprisonment and the grounds given
in the complaints are confinement in the
Marion County Jail and refusal on the
part Of Mr.. Miller, who was sheriff at the
time, to accept bondsman.
1t is alleged in each bill the defendant
was arrested in indianapolis Feb. 49,
1919 on a warrant issued by T. Ernest
Maholm, justice of the peace for Center
Township. 1t is charged Maholm com
mitted each of the compliments TO Jail
on bonds of 5000 each and he wrote on
each commitment Bond not to be &C
cepted without my approval"
The compliments allege b6ndsmen
called on Sheriff Miller and offered to
provide their bonds, but the offers were
refused by the sheriff on order of Ma
holm and this, they say, caused them
to stay in jail one day until a writ Of
habeas corpus could be obtained from
the Marion Criminal Court to effect their
release.

COMMISSION
WILL ASK FOR
WIDER BRIDGE
City Plan Body to Exercise It's
Right in Delaware Street
Improvement.

A step was taken toward the first ex
ercise of its right to pass upon all plans
for public buildings and bridges by the
city plan commission Friday afternoon
when it was decided that John L. Elliott,
city civil engineer and ex-otficio member
of the commission, should confer with
the board of park commissioners and
county commissioners relative to the
width Of the proposed Delaware street
bridge over FAN Creek.
The county commissioners, in pre-
liminary discussions, have expressed in
tention to build a bridge with forty-foot
roadway and six-foot sidewalks Mem
bers OF the plan commission, who be-
lleye that main thoroughfares, in general,
should be 100 feet wide do not believe
forty-feet is sufficient width for a cross
ing Of the creek on so important a high
way.
President Edward T. Raub Of the com
mission recalled the section Of the city
plan law requiring the commissions aP-
prevail Of all public structures before they
can be erected in indianapolis. which had
been almost lost sight OF since the COM
mission was established.
President Raub was reelected for
year as were Vice President Emerson w.
Chaille and Executive Secretary Lawrence
Y. Sheridan.
The commission sent its report for 1921
to Mayor Samuel Lewis Shank. The re-
port shows that preliminaries have been
cleared to the point where actual study
Of the problem Of zoning has been begun.
OF the $4,000 appropriated for the com
missions use in 1921 ony $2S70.57 was
used The commission expects to present
a coming ordinance to the city council
this year

INDIANAPOLIS
FAR AHEAD IN
CONSTRUCTION
Outstrips Larger Cities in
Valuation of New Build
ings in 1921.

Although far below them in population,
Indianapolis outstripped Kansas City, st.
Louis and New Orleans in valuation of
buildings erected in 1921, the annual ma
tional building report Of the American
Contractor, Chicago building trade jour
nal. made public today, shows, The In
dianapohs record, as announced some
time ago. was SIS, 328 965.
The report also shows that although
twenty second IN population among cities
of the United States, Indianapolis was
fourteenth In valuation Of construction
in 1921 year in which records were
shattered all over the country.
In the face of the big showing in 1921,
Indianapolis temporarily lost her place
in the building sun last month. While
there was a national gain OF 125 per cent
the hrure for January, e921 this city
showed loss Of A per cent. The num-
Der of permits. however. was increased
In January last year 331 permits were
issued for construction valued at $1,023,-
500 as compared with 403 permits valued
at $3.50 700 last month
Francis L. Hamilton, city commissioner
of buildings said that the loss was due
TO the fact that plans fer several big
building projects have been held up for
approval In his office Some, new types
of construction are Involved which 1t
was deemed wise to thoroughly in
vestigate before approving. Several Of
these projects are now ready for issuance
of permits and the February building
report very likely will show a revival
that viii put Indianapolis back in the
first rank. he said.

enter club life that they may have init
mate contact with representative women
engaged in the different occupations and
discuss the things which shall enable
them to meet more intelligently the
problems and responsibilities Of business
life, at the same time realizing the value
Of coming together In a social way, which
means much to an active business woman
The friendships formed in these gath
erings are enduring and helpful, and
the social side Of Club life Is a point

IS HERE
From Atlantic to Pacific Coast Re-
ports Show Alarming Increase.

Influenza and influenzal-pneu-
monia are again prevalent and care
should be used by all or death toll
may run into the millions, say all
Heal h Boards. During the Epidemic
Of 191S-1919 one hospital reported
497 cases and another 3S5 cases with
out a death. The only medication
used at these hospitals was Balsa-
mea, a western discovery. In thou
sands of cases Balsamea was used
and no fatalities occurred from the
influenza or its running mate, pneH-
monia. Balsamea was used at the
beginning of the disease in most
cases.
Take it at the first sign of infu-
enza or cold and prevent the deadly
pneumonia. Formerly Balsamea was
sold only on physicians p~escrip-
tons but now you can buy II at any
first class drug store. Get a bottle
today and be prepared. Balsamea is
palatable medicine powerful in its
effects on all respiratory troubles,
either temporary or chronic.-AdVer-

In Ohio, perfected vegetable compound
mixed with olive oil TO act on the liver
and bowels, which be gave to his patients
for years.

ment Of a baby a few weeks ago at the
home of Carl Breathauer. 1927 Burgess

the mother. Josie Bradeson, Of Wiscon-
sin were married in order to give the

When it was shown to Judge James
A Collins of Criminal Court where the
pair were arranged on charges Of child
NEGLECT, that the boy had been placed
ir an orphanage by the Juyenutle Court,
he insisted that they should he married.
The marriage ceremony was pronounced
by Justice Of the Peace L. J. Kiefer and
Immediately afterward Deputy Prosecu-
tor Sidney Miller announced that he
would dismiss the charges against the
couple.
The pair told the court officials that
they would not live together.
Tue abandoning of the baby caused a
police search for the mother which ended
when she was located in little Wiscon-
sin town. Breathauer at first denied
knowledge of the affair, but was indicted
by the Marion County grand jury along
with the mother.
