PUBLIC INITIATION
ISSTAGED BY KLAN

A capacity audience. packing the
coliseum to the doors which were
closed in the faces of 200 more who
were unable to enter. witnessed the
demonstration of a Ku Klux Khan mi
tiation gwen by robed and masked
members of the organization Monday
night.
Whole families attended the meet
ing in a body, coming early and Sc
curing favorite seats. AS the floor
filled, several of the Klansmen acted
as ushers.
Exercises started at o'clock when
the members of the organization, who
had been standing in the wings, filed
out onto the stage and formed two
lines across the front with folded arms.
The Klansmen previously had filed
down the aisle and across the plat
form to the rear. There were AZ
Klansmen, 26 in the front row and
Is in the rear row, in addition to a
leader and assistant.
A short speech explaining the OBJ
jects of the Khan was made by one of
the members, after which an initia-
tan was given for the information of
the audience. An electric cross was
erected behind a flag draped table on
which were crossed sword and scab-
bard and a Bible. The several oaths
were read from a manuscript by the
! leader and repeated in unison by the
Klansmen. 1t was explained that the
special speaker engaged for the even
ing had been taken to another city by
mistake.
The ceremony was preceded by the
playing of two selections by Khan
band, of "Muncie Klan No. 4, Realm
of Indiana" consisting of % pieces
Onward Christian Soldiers" and
Battle Hymn of the Republic" were
the pieces selected.
AS the crowd filed out, Klansmer
stationed at the doors directed it and
prevented intrusion upon the mem
bers.

$4,000 BOND ISSUE
is PASSED BY COUNCIL
AFTER LEGAL OPINION

Passage of a $45, 900 bond issue, after
repeal of the $4,000 issue which had
fromerly been authorize, was the
chief business before the city council
at the regular session Monday evening.
The S45, 900 issue was substituted for
the larger issue because of legal OBJ
structions in connection with the lat
ter.
A new question Of law interpreta-
ton was the cause of the councils &C
ton. A law firm at Indianapolis, which
had been authorized to pass upon the
legality OF the bonds, questioned the
issue because the city's share of street
intersection improvements was being
paid for by the issue of bonds.
Although 1916 bond issue had pass
ed without objection from anyone, and
the law had not been changed since,
it was felt best by the city officials
that there should be no basis for ques-
tioning the bonds and for this reason,
a new issue was authorized from which
the payments for street intersection
was eliminated.
Things Included.
The southwest sewer system, motor
ICED equipment for the fire and street
departments, a new boiler for the city
building, and payments on market
house lots are included in the $4,000
issue.
The city bus ordinance which had
been hanging fire for several weeks
was tabled until a later meeting. A
new bus company which had come to
town recently, was ordered inVestigat-
ed by the mayor.
Councilman Ford asked if there was
an ordinance limiting the speed of in
terurban cars. The death of man at
Thirteenth and Main streets recently,
in an interurban crash was referred to
by him.
The matter was referred to the city
attorney. Councilman Ford was asked
TO get copy of the motorman's state
ment for the use of the chief of police
and the city attorney.
Councilman Waterman asked for
more rigid enforcement of the traffic
ordinance, and the request was refer
red TO the police department.
