ROAD LOAN BILL
AGAINST COUNTY
is HELD ILLEGAL
$4,000 Claim of Contractor
Thrown Out by State
Auditors.

AuullOTS,
A highway contractors bill for re-
fund Of a loan of $1,000 70 Marion
County Commissioners for use in
attempting TO obtain a $4,000, 900
PWA loan for road construction was
declared illegal in report on file
today with the state accounts board.
The claim. filed by Eugene Shee-
han. was disclosed during an audit
Of bills against the county incurred
during the administration Of Bruce
Short as county surveyor.
Suit for a similar amount, brought
by Mr.. Sheehan against the COM
missioners, has been dismissed in
Superior Court 5 because, in the
opinion of Judge Herbert E Wilson,
Mr.. Sheehan brought action against
the wrong persons.
Assert Money Paid to Short
Ernest K. Marker and Dow w.
Vorhies, who were commissioners at
the time the loan was made, claim
they never received the money and
declared it had been paid to Short.
Airplane trips to Washington, ex-
penses Of a hired lobbyist, costly
hotel bills and other expense items
were included in the details of the
claim.
Commissioner Marker admitted
he had made trips to Washington
in connection with the proposed
loan, but claimed he had paid his
own hotel bills.
Short Claim DisapprOved
The first attempt to collect the
$4,000 from Marion County taxpay-
ers, records, show, was made when
Mr.. Short filed a claim with the
commissioners, who promptly ap-
proved it, Subsequently, the claim
was disapproved by Auditor Charles
A GrOSSart.
Last January Mr.. Sheehan at
tempted to collect the sum from the
commissioners through the action
brought in Superior Court.
Mr.. Sheehan's claim alleged the
money had been used by the county
for necessary and worthy pur-
poses" in connection with the nego-
tiations for Federal aid
Say Sheehan Failed to Appear
Edward A. Cooper, T. D. Barr and
Fred T. GLADDEN.. field examiners
for the State Accounts Board, said
they had invited Mr.. Sheehan to
appear before them to explain his
claim. He failed to do so. they
said
William P. Cosgrove, chief ex-
aminer. said Mr.. Sheehan had con-
feTred with him. The claim can not
be lawfully paid. Mr.. Cosgrove said,
unless a court returns a judgment
against the county.
The examiners scTutinized claims
for sos 300 incurred in connection
with Marion County highway work
during the Short administration.
$4,000 Spent on Survey
OF the claims. more than S45 900
had been expended for a survey in
advance of the efforts to negoti-
ate the PWA lean, it was disclosed.
The examiners said there was some
doubt whether the county ever
would benefit from the $4,000 sur
vey, but because they had been in
CURED in good faith the bills should
be paid.
To meet the bills left unpaid by
Mr.. Short. the County Council has
authorized use of all but $4,000 of
the 1895 gasoline tax revenue from
the state.
Because of this obligation against
the 1885 funds, the highway depart
ment is closed.
The $4,000 retained has been ex-
hausted and no more money will
be available until Jan. 1, 1886.

O-Why do Protestant churches
observe Pentecost when it really is
the Feast of Weeks, a Jewish festi-
val?
A-Pentecost, or the Feast Of
Weeks, was observed by the Jews
so days after the Passover cele-
bration each year. After Christ
came. died and arose from the
dead. his followers gave these
Jewish Feast days and institutions
q Christian meaning. Instead OF
keeping a Passover the early
Christians celebrated His death
and suffering He was their Pass
over Lamb. On the first Pente-
cost after Christ's resurrection,
the Church was born. as recorded
in Acts, Second Chapter. Pente-
cost from then on was celebrated
as the beginning time Of the
Christian era and the Birthday Of
the Church.
Q-Was the distinguishing of the
seventh day peculiar only to the
Jews?
A-This custom is very old. The
Babylonians observed the seventh,
fourteenth, twenty-first and twen-
ty-eighth days of two months dur
ing the year. These days were
called Days of Penitence." On
them, the leaders of the people
were not allowed to eat meat, drink
certain beverages, to wear fine
clothes, or to ride in fine car
riages. In addition they we're for
hidden to work.
The Semitic tribes considered
the seventh day an ill-omened one
on which no task could be success
full. In Israel the observance Of
the seventh day became a per-
manent weekly institution. The
day was designed Sabbath (cessa-
ton of work. and was ordained
not only for the leaders but for
the entire people, for even the
slaves and the beasts of burden.
Moreover, Israel changed the
thought back of the day from the
ominous to the happy, and substi-
tuted for the pagan notion of a
day on which the Gods we're angry,
the loftier idea that God, finishing
the world on this day and being
satisfied with His Creation, sane
toned and blessed the day as one
of rest and joy.
Q-Explain the significance of the
Jewish Bar Mitzvah" ceremony.
AIN Jewish practice boy, to
the age Of 13, is considered a child.
In times past, the father was, dur
ing those years of childhood,
obliged to support him, to provide
for his education, and to afford
him the means of mastering a
profession or trade. But at the
age of 13 the boy assumed religious
duties and was considered an
adult Jew. This change was SYM
bolized by the sons putting on the
Tefillin (phylacteries) and in
some congregations also the Tai
18th prayer shawl; and by his
being counted to a Minyan (quo-
RUM. At the present time and
especially in Western countries,
the Bar Mitzvah age no longer
marks the end of childhood and
of parental responsibility. The
religious ceremony connected with
it is hence entirely one for the
strengthening of the boys allegi-
ance to his faith and his people,
and for the encouraging of ma
ture attitude toward religious
duties. The ceremony and festiv-

Biemer, chief deputy auditor, for

INDIANAPOLIS, May 3O.-Wlth
my large ears I have gathered the
following unimportant facts con-
cerning the 500-mile race today:
Fred Frame, 1882 winner and, at
IS, the Oldest man in the race, has
driven the equivalent of the dis
tance around the earth III competi-
ton. Which, in case your school
days are too long ago, is $4,000
miles. And he doesn't bear a scar
1t takes powder puff to win the
indianapolis race. Every driver
carries one to wipe off his wind
shield.
Cliff Bergere is the most fastidi-
Gus of drivers. For example, he
will not step in a racing car unless
ne is clad in. black overalls with
skull and crosSbones embroidered
on the back.
Chet Miller of Detroit lives on
borrowed time" He has been ov-
er the wall twice. Last year he
kept on going and drove back
kept on goin gand drove back
through the gates without shifting
gears.
Kelly Petillo wild man who has
but one motto-"keep the foot down
and keep it down hard'-uses a vi
brating machine on his forearms to
keep his muscles supple.
Louis Tomei, Los Angeles young
ster making his first appearance at
Indianapolis, is a movie actor back
home when he isn't racing.
Ralph Hepburn, California veter-
an, carries his baby's shoes on the
steering wheel. It's not a bad idea,
for Pete De Paola, with the little
ones" bootsies flying from the
wheel, won one of the races and the
S25, 900 that goes with it.
Harry Insinger, a Philadelphia
college boy who'll give it a go to-
day, rides with a broken neck. IN
singer received the injury at AS
cot but says it never bothers him.
George DOC" Mackenzie Of Ed
dington, Pa, wears a beard. He
says he won't cut it off until he
wins at Indianapolis.
Rex Nays, tho wild Californian
who won the post position with
new track record in the trials,
wants to win for reason-so ne
can buy his wife the new fur coat
he has promised her.
Mauri Rose of Dayton, runner-up
last year, is the most temperament
al of all drivers. He won't be pho
tographed and he despises inter
views.
Tony GullOta is the most popular
driver, not only with the spectators,
but with the rival drivers as well.
The hefty Deacon Litz, fourth
place winner in 1884, sits on
checkered flag when he is racing.
It is under lis seat.
Amelia Earhart, who'll referee the
race today, started out as an au-
tomobile racing driver.

Boxing GloUes
Suggested For
Wrestling Bout

Ted Christy, who wrestles here to-
morrow night, called Promoter John
Contos over the long distance phone
yesterday to make the most un-
usual request that has ever con-
fronted the latter.
Christy asked Contos TO COM
municate with the California State
Athletic commission and secure its
permission to have Vincent Lopez
and himself put on boxing gloves in
the Ell Centro arena ring Friday
night SO that they can settle the
bad blood existing between them
once and for all Christy claims
that Lopez uses boxing tactics in
the ring Notwithstanding the re-
feree's warnings and that they
might just as we'll fight it out
under the Marquis OF Queensbury
rules.
Should the commission refuse
this permission to the two Wrestlers,
Christy offers the alternative that
they use bare knuckles. Contos
seemed stumped by this request and
said that he would consult the
proper authorities for guidance.

"Hedrt Balm" Bill
Blocked In Senate

SACRAMENTO, May 30. U.P)-
Fear that the chastity of Califor-
mia womanhood would lose its legal
protection was given as the reason
today for the senate judiciary COM
mittee's refusal to approve a bill
eliminating breach of promise and
alienation of affection as causes of
court action.
The measure, by Assemblyman
Paul A. Richie, San Diego, was
passed by the lower house recent
ly after pleas had been made that
most heart balm" suits were rae
ketS.
A majority of the senate judici-
ary committee members are law
yers. and II was understood attor-
neys generally were opposed to the
bill because it would deprive them
of possible business.
Unless the senate votes to draw
the bill from committee, the meas
ure will die.
