 By Board of Works

October 1st has been set as the date for hearing on a petition asking that the name of lower Ab-
 bolt avenue, between North Main and Kingsbury streets be changed. The date for the hearing was de- cided upon last night at a meeting of the works board. It is not known what name the residents of lower Abbott avenue want for their street but this matter will be decided, it is expected, when the hearing takes place.
 Superintendent of Streets Thom- as J. Fleming was ordered by the board to oil Scott road. A delega- ton headed by Archibalt Haggerty, asked that the oiling be done and the board promptly approved the work. Residents of Rhode Island avenue asked that their thoroughfare be laid out and graded. They were in- formed, however, that Massachu- setts avenue, which serves as an outlet for Rhode Island avenue, has not been laid out. The residents on Massachusetts avenue, it was dis closed, have refused to pay the as- sessment. The board decided to in- vestigate the situation further be- fore adopting the layout for Rhode Island avenue.
 The board instructed Superinten- dent Fleming to eliminate the dead end water main on Tracy avenue by connecting with the Pearl Lake road main. Al larger main was also ordered for Tracy avenue. Resi-

NATURE ASSOCIATION
HEAD HITS DARLING
Pack Answers Non-Support Plea
by Asking More Stimulant,
Less Dope"

"More stimulant and less dope" is
the keynote of a stinging answer
made by Arthur Newton Pack, presi-
dent of the American Nature Associa-
tion, to complaints of Jay N. Darling,
chief of the United States Bureau of
Biological Survey, that conservation
groups have not been supporting him
with action.
Those truly interested in wild life
conservation do not know where
Darling stands" Mr.. Pack declared.
They have been unable to reconcile
q destructive duck hunting season,
such as the last one, the continuation
of batting and the use of live decoys,
the wild life poison program of the
bureau, and other policies with true
conservation. Furthermore, he has
not called on the American Nature
Association for specific support. He
has not told us what he wanted us
to do, and now he complains that We
do nothing"
Citing the need of militant leader
ship that would not reflect the
tongue cheek attitude of so-called
conservation groups Of sportsmen who
want to have their game and kill it,
too" Pack continued although the
nearly 100000 hunting licenses per
year reveal an army of killers all out
of proportion to our diminishing wild
life resources, there is great body of
non-killers that will follow leader
ship"
To his own attack upon Darling,
Pack added one received by him from
Mrs. Halbert Handelan of Chicago.
tenth district conservation chairman
OF the Women's Clubs of Illinois. Mrs.
Handelan accused Darling of cater
ing to petty politicians" in that dis
trict.

year-old Theodore Mathers, accused
Of staying Rev. Gaylord v. Saunders,
former Wabash, Ind, minister, was
foundy guilty Of involuntary manu-
slaughter this afternoon by q weary
jury which began its deliberations
Friday at 4 pm.
The finding of the jury calls for o
/ to 10 year imprisonment.

the youth was deferred pending con-
sideration by defense counsel as to

Rev. Mr.. Saunders, who was pastor
Of the Wabash Street Methodist Epis-
copal Church, was shot and killed in
Indianapolis the morning of February
2, 1894.

fession from Mathers in which the
lad was quoted as saying he had been

ders, the pastors wife, to employ
some one to kill her husband. The
lad said he used the money to pur-
chase a revolver and committed the
murder himself.
