estate New W. Hills, left when he
was killed during a Davenport (la.)

known heirs.
Dispoistion of the estate is un

ground that it represents the pro
ceeds of bank robberies. The money
is on deposit in a Gary (Ind.) bank.

I began, to use his own words, “to
' hang around fire stations.”
Granting that in this age, motor
i ized fire equipment is essential,
i Captain Kile was fond of recalling
i the early part of his career when
horses drew equipment. *
Firemen Really Worked
“Firemen really worked in those
days.” he said. “I spent most of my
! time as a driver, even while I was a
lieutenant, and I know that the
drivers had little time to rest.
“Every half hour or so, drivers
had to check over their horses.
They had to feed them morning
and night, keep them clean, treat
sick and injured horses and mend
harness.
“After every- fire, even in the
middle of the night, the horses had
to be covered until they stopped
sweating and then they had to be
cleaned.”
When he began his career, there
were tnly ninety-two men in the
depar | ent. Northward the city ex

He served first at No. 3 station,

company, ?;iE. H. Hill, was named
receiver for the milk company.
Judge Ryan efrdered the com
panies to continue operation under
jurisdiction of the court, state “the
products and milk companies are
largely solvent.”
‘lt is anticipated the courts will
authorize continuation of the busi

ships and bankruptcies will serve to
aid in reorganization of all Van
Camp interests.”
Salesmen of the companies will be
notified immediately to exert efforts
to sell goods, as the receivers expect
to continue manufacturing, selling,
and delivering as usual, officials said.
Albert Lieber, Indianapolis busi

CONGRESS TO PROBE
R. F. C. RELIEF MOVES
One or More Committees Will Look
Into Activities.
By Scripps-Hownrd Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.—Inves
tigation dt the relief activities of
the Reconstruction Finance Corpor
ation by one or more committees of
the Senate seems certain on the eve
of the winter session of congress.
Senator Robt. F. Wagner, author
of the relief bill which the corpora
tion has been administering since
July, believes the senate banking
and currency committee should make
such an investigation. This com
mittee, of which Wagner is a memt
ber, framed the relief bill that final
ly was enacted into law.
Senator Robert La Follette, whose
committee on manufactures has
studied relief extensively in connec
tion with his proposals for more
extended federal activities may call
for such investigation as a part of
further hearings on the same sub
ject.
La Follette proposes that his com
mittee shall study destitution and
relief conditions in the different
parts of the country, as well as
administration of relief from Wash
ington.
given the number 13, but he would
not wear it. He finally was given
No. 120, which he had at the time
of his retirement.
Aside from the accident a year
ago, he suffered broken bones in his
face in 1897 during a fire at the
Denison hotel. He was struck in the
face by a plug cap, which had been
hurled by the force of in a
hose.
Although he had not kept count
of the number of alarms to which
he responded. Captain Kile once
estimated it at 12,000.
Cold
ABORTION
(with lemon juice)
Have you ever tried aborting a cold?
When you abort your cold, it’s
gone; the system is rid of it! The
lemon juice treatment will do >t.
Squeeze two full-size lemons in a
large glass of very hot water and
drink without sugar. First, take
three tablets of Pape’s cold com
pound an-hour apart. This clears
the head, dries the nasal passages,
reduces any fever. The lemon juice
then drives all cold symptoms right
out of the system. Bedtime is best.
This treatment will abort the worst
cold overnight. One cold compound
tablet will check a cold at any time,
for several hours; then when night
comes you can get rid of it by abor
tion. Any druggist has Pape's cold
compound. It’s perfectly safe. Try
it, and you'll never go back to half
way remedies.—Advertisement.

between the ages of 30 and 40. The
one who did most of the talking was
about 38, height 5 feet 10 inches, and
weight 160 pounds. He gray

overcoat.
Owners of.tfie stolen cars are W.
A. Courtwright,s3ll9 North Meri

North Meridian street.
The men with Mayes and Myers
chatted amiably after the motor
cade was driven from the garage
and traveled north by way of Meri
dian street, then east and north on
Road 31.
Warned of Cops Battle
“If you see any cops,” the kid
naped men were warned, “get
down on the floor, because w’e’re
going to start blazing. We are go
ing to shoot it out with them.”
“Keep your mouths shut and you
won’t get hurt,” was another order.
As they were ejected ffom the
car, Myers and Mayes were asked:
“Got any money to get back to
town on?” Receiving a negative
reply, one of the bandits tossed
some money, remarking:
“Here’s $3. That’ll get you
back.”
“We. are going to read the papers
.today to see how good a description
you got,” the released men were
told. “Tell the owners of these cars
they will get them back in tefi days.

then.”
Frees Self, Calls Police
“Wait a minute,” a bandit called,
as Myers and Mayes started to walk
toward the city. An umbrella was
tossed to them with the remark,
“Better raise it. It might rain.”
The three cars then sped north
ward.
Pullian succeeded in freeing him
self in about ten minutes and called
police.
A squad commanded by Lieuten
ant Dan Scanlan began circling the
area near the garage, but were
thrown off the trail for a short
time as a result of a report by a
milk .man they met atJThirty-fourth
street and Northwestern avenue,
who said he saw three cars speed
ing north on the avenue.
RATES CUT UN
YULETIDE CARDS
i
Christmas Greetings May
Be Mailed for 1 1-2 Cents.
Uncle Sam is a pretty good scout,
but a poor business man.
This was the opinion of Post
master Leslie D. Clancy today,
when he received a bulletin from
the po;\master general’s office
“tipping off” the public how legally
to “beat the government out of
some money.”
The tip was that printed Christ
mas greeting cards may be mailed,
unsealed, as third-class matter,
bearing only a V.b cent stamp, in
stead of the usual 3-cent first
class postage.
Such cards must not bear any
written message in the nature of
personal correspondence, other than
the sender's name and such simple
written inscriptions as “Sincerely
yours,” “Merry Christmas,” or “With
best wishes.”
Cards, sealed or unsealed, bearing
other than such inscriptions must
bear 3-cent postage for each ounce.
In view of the 3-cent postage now
required for first-class mail, Clancy
said, many senders of Christmas
greeting cards are expected to take
advantage of the third-class mailing
rate.
