INDOOR CIRCUS
ATTRACTS MANY
War Veterans Show Is Staged
in Real Bally-Ho Style.
Daniel in the Lion’s Den had nothtng
on Agie in the sawdust ring.
Agie is a little Spanish lady who as
sociates intimately with five huge lions
at the World War Veterans’ indoor cir
cus which opened iu Tomlinson hall last
night. Agie is one of the features of
the circus. She walks boldly into a
cage full of lion's and makes them jump
nt her commands.
Agie places her head in the mouth of
the biggest animal of the lot, but he
doesn’t bite.
Fifteen other big acts are playing at
the indoor circus, among them being
Anderson Dog and Pony Show: Blondle.
the high diving monk, and Zaza* the
bucking mule.
The circus is complete in all the de
tails of a town-lot carnival. Red lemon
ade, peanuts and cotton candy is sold
from stands surrounding the big ring.
The “nigger bahy stand.” the country
store and other carnival booths also do
a flourishing business under the guid
ance of vociferous bally.-ho artists.
Fifteen clowns cavort about the hall
in caricature costumes. The clowns
officially bury poor old John Barley
corn. John, represented by empty bot-
Jfh?s, is paraded through the hall in a
escorted by clown folk disguised
■ “booze hounds.” The band plays a
Jm oral anarch nod the convivial old man
HT a past day i? laid to rest with much
and ceremony. Many other fea
tures are presented by the clown family
much to the delight of the indoor circus
goers.
Mart Gray, of the Marion County
World War Veterans and a committee of
sixteen manage the production. It will
run for ®ne week in Tomlinson hall,
the circus being held every night. Aft
ernoon shows will be given Wednesday
and Saturday. On Wednesday all
orphans of the city and all soldiers at Ft.
Benjamin Harrison will attend as guests
of the World War Veterans. Proceeds
of the affair will go toward a home
for the vets in Mariqn county.
Motograph Boosts
Near East Relief
“The silent orator on the daylight
corner"—the motograph of the Mer
chants Light Company—-will
carry a message in behalf of relief for
the near east this week, as follows:
“Horrors of war not over yet—think—
-250,000 Armenian babies will starve to
death unless America gives aid. $5 a
Dionth saves a child’s life—help these
babies. Near East Relief, 102 North
Pennsylvania. John H. Holliday, state
chairman.”
Mummies Vie With
Dinosauria at Trial
CHICAGO, Feb. 24.—The ghosts of
Egyptian mummies stalked in court
here today to offer testimony.
Testimony of even more weight,
based on age, was to be offered by
the ancient dinosauria.
Mrs. George A. Barraore, claimed
by health officials to be a typhoid
carrier, began her tight for liberty.
The health department, wi3..l:vg
her to be Isolated, put famous bac
teriologists on the stand. Dr. Ar
thur I. Kendall, bacteriologist of
Northwestern university, denied bac
terial infection is “new fangled."
“Traces of such infection are found
in Egyptian mummies,” Kendall said.
“Before that ’ dinosauria suffered
from it.”
INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA,
FARMERS WILL
HAVE VOICE IN
NEXT SESSION
Goodrich Ignored by Federa
tion. Which Names Legis
lative Committee.
FAVOR BLUE SKY LAW
Farmers will have something to say
about the work of the forthcoming spe
cial session of the Indiana legislature.
Disregarding the action of Gov. Good
rich, who has informally asked candi
dates for the nomination for governor
I and the republican state committee to
| “suggest” a program for the special ses
sion. the Indiana Federation of Farmers’
Associations has named several sub
j committees to look after bills to be in
troduced in the next special or regular
| session.
The legislative steering committee of
the farmers is composed of John J.
i Brown, Rockport, chairman; Joseph W.
; Raub, EllettsvlUe, vice chairman; H.
E. Loebry, Franklin, secretary; Charles
W. Hickman, Lafayette, and William
j Bosson. Indianapolis.
BLUE SKY LAW
! MAY BE SOUGHT.
I Among the things that the farmers
! probably will seek is an adequate blue
j sky law, a law requiring the employ
! ment of county agents, regulation of
! charges for elevatiop and storage of
grain, and other matters, included under
the following heads for which sub-com
mittees are named: \
Feeds. Fertilizers and Pure Seeds —
Joseph W. Raub and C. W. Hickman
Laws Relating to Road and Tax—J. J.
Brown and William Bosson.
Hauling Freight on Traction Lines —E.
W.. Hickman and H. E. Lochry.
Blue Sky Law—William Bosson and H.
E. Lochr.v.
County Agents—J. W. Raub and H. E.
Lochry.
Charges for Elevation and Storage of
Grain— William Bosson and C. W. Hick
man.
To prepare a bill placing the stock
: yards of the state under the public serv
ice commission—William Bosson and H,
F. Lochry.
To prepare a bill requiring manu
facturers and dealers in tractofs, trucks
and other farm implements to keep a
full supply of repairs at a central place
in the state—William Bosson and J. W.
R&ub. t
FAVOR INTERURBAN
LIVE STOCK HAULING.
The legislative committee, at a meet- j
ing here yesterday, discussed the haul- ;
ing of live stock by interurbans, favoring
legislation to encourage this.
The Ben-Hur division of the T. H., I.
it E. Company, running from Crawfords- i
ville to Indianapolis, hauled 1,801 cars j
of live stock to Indianapolis last year, it!
was reported. Lewis Taylor, secretary •
of the federation, declared that If the in- j
terurban companies were permitted to
bring in live stock in carload lots on a
large scale the farmers would benefit tna
terially, as the interurban can reach
many places where the steam roads can
not.
HE FOILS STUMP
AND CINCHES JOB
Former Middie Tells White All
About His Own Engine.
When McCall White, vice president of
the Lafayette Motors Company, met
Alfred E. Evans, 1428 North Pennsyl
vania street, an applicant for a position
as engineer, he questioned him minutely
concerning the working of engines of a
British transport that Evans had served
on. f
Evans answered all questions intelli
gently.
“You see. I designed that engine, and
I wanted to see what you knew about it,”
White said.
Evans won the Job.
He had met Mr. White through Fred
Klelnsmith, federal and state director of
employment service.
'Several months ago. when Evans was
chief engineer on n British ship, trans
porting troops between Brest. France,
and New York, he met Miss Dora Bozart,
an Indianapolis girl, who was returning
from Y. W. C. A. service overseas. Ro
mance developed quickly am> they were

Man of 95 Writes
Better Than Most
Folk Lots Younger
William Francis Golden is 95 years
young—aa is indicated by the firmness
of his signature above.
He has a remarkable history, in many
respects, but none is more remarkable
than his ability to write well at bis ad
vanced age.
For many years he was an instructor
in penmanship, and was teaching young
Hooslers how to write In tho Vonnegut
high school in Indianapolis at the close
of the Civil War. He still writes, and
writes well. He wrote many cards for
(he Shriners when they were In In
dianapolis last June, and late samples
of his work have been sent to President
Wilson and Vice President Marshall. He
attended a wedding last week and auto
graphed cards for all the guests.
The typewriter is making the art of
penmanship a lost art. Mr. Golden fears.
Few persons really write well, he says!
Mr. Golden lives at 2830 Burton avenue.
He will be 95 on March 28, and says he
never felt better. Here are some of his
remarkable characteristics:
Never been sick a day in his life.
Wears glasses only when writing.
Offered to go aorosk the pond to fight
the kaiser’s forces in 1917.
Shook hands with Abraham Lincoln In
Springfield, II!., on the eve of Lincoln’s
election.
Has been invited to call on President
Wilson, w hom he greatly admires.
Mr. Golden also gives pointers on how
to keep young.
IJve young, eat no animal flesh, don’t
touch tobacco or liquor, he says. He's
lived up to his own advice and believes
this is why he retains bis remarkable
health and'vit^ity.
PUBLIC SCHOOL
AUTOCRACY HIT
Teachers’ President Assails
Prussian Type of Rule.
*’LF\ ELAND. Feh. 24. Less autocracy
and more democracy In public school
administration was the demand of dele
gates to the National Educational as
sociation In convention here today.
Charles B. Stillman, president of the;
American Federation of Teachers, con- I
demned what he formed the “Prussian
type of autocratic school rule." He
charged that educators were sent to Ger- j
many in the search for models and that
they returned with the germ of Prus j
sianism.
Stillman and other members urged
generous participation In the business of
school management by the teachers.
At a meeting of the resolutions commit- !
tee late this afternoon several Important
measures will be discussed. It was be
lieved the committee would urge ener
getic action to Influence the adoption of
the Smlth-Towner bill, providing for the
post of a secretary of education In the
federal cabinet.
Among other resointlons up for in
dorsement are:
A complete program of physical train
ing. including compulsory military train
ing in the schools, a national thrift pro
gram in the schools, Intensive American
ism and formation of teachers’ federa
tions.
Say Officer O’Connor
Didn’t Save Woman
Flossie Olson, River avenue, who
jumped Into White river several days
ago In an attempt at suicide, won’t
thank a big-hearted, Irish copper for her
rescue—if she wants to thank anyone.
Four men dispute the original claim
of Patrolman Martin O’Connor's friends
that the patrolman rescued her.
According to the new,, story, Ed W.
Boyers, 2201 East Washington street:
Louis Enfield, C. A. McGee and H. ,T.
Barns, did the rescue, Boyer and En
field sliding down a rope hung from
the Kentucky avenue bridge and McGee
and Barns pulling them up. O’Connor, j
It is said, objected to his policemen
friends ascribing him as the hero- j
rescuer.

? Twas Only a Pup!
NEW lORK, Feh. 24.—Theater
going passengers on an express
bound uptown in the Seventh avenue
subway, fumed aud fretted s‘esterday
afternoon, while tbe train ran fit
quarter speed with frequent jerky
stops.
As the hour for curtains to rise
at matinees came perilously near, a
self-constituted committee called on
tbe motorman for an explanation. He
was peering anxiously out his cnb
window at a bewildered brown-and
wbite terrier running between the
rails. t
“The pup can’t run any faster,” tbe
motormau explained, "aud I ain’t go
ing to run over him. That stands if
we don’t get to Times square till
night.”
At Times square the terfler still
was abend of the train, but’ going at
a greatly reduced pace.
“I hope he’ll fall out when he sees
daylight at One Hundred and Twenty
eighth! street,” sighed the motorman.
He did.

TRACTORS WILL
BE FEATURED
AT AUTO SHOW
Much effort to interest the farmers of
Indiana in the Twentieth Automobile
Show, to be held at the state fair grounds
March 8 to 13, is being put forth by the
Indianapolis Automobile Trade associa
tion, because of tbe increasing import
ance of the rural citizens as users of
all kinds of motor vehicles. Farmers as
a class are becoming increasingly pros
perous. Motor ear dealers who exhibit
at the twentieth show expect to enter
tain many country people who are inter
ested in the show both from the stand
point of purchasers of passenger cars
and of power equipment for their farms.
Tbe average farmer, using old-fash
ioned equipment, is up against a stone
wall so far as increased production is
concerned. Farmers always have used
their land, labor and machinery to the
limit. Before the war doubled the value
of their land and its Improvements, they
were more or less content with their re
turns. But the same production now
from land that is doubled in in
reality means half the production of four
or five years ago. It is the problem of
bending tbe production curve up to meet
the investment .curve that faces the
farmer.
The automobile dealer comes to tbe
front with a solution of the problem.
Exhibitors at the coming auto show will
stress this point. Authorities state that
the tractor and one man do four times
as much in a day as a leSfii of horses
and one man. Motor trucks can haul
crops to markets many times faster and
cheaper than horses.
Automobile dealers have come to look
upon it as a duty to the country to help
the farmer solve his problems. The great
est service any business man can render
at this time is to aid in the increasing
of production, it is agreed. Many con
cerns are training their salesmen with
this idea in mind.
Dealers are urging farmers to buy
their tractors early because tbe demand
is expected to exceed the supply next
year, even though approximately 300.000
tractors will be made.
The farmers will have their first op
portunity since the stats fair to view
tbe latest developments in tractors and
trucks, as well as passenger cars, at the
coming auto show.
LABOR DEALS
| POLITICS BLOW
No lime for Either Party,
Sentiment at Ical Meeting:.
Politics shall have no place in Central
Labor Union meetings, leaders of the In
dian u polls labor movement declared to
day. Attempts have been made, leaders
of a majority faetlou asserted, to Inject
i politics into tho organization, but it was
demonstrated at a meeting of the Cen
tral Labor Union last night that union
members will not aland for such a move.
Thq. fight arose when a resolution In
dorsing tho political program of the
American Federation of Labor and
Samuel Oompers was Introduced. L*ad
ers of the new labor party of Indiana
Interpreted the resolution as an attack
on their movement—which Oompers has
strougly opposed—and a warm discussion
arose.
GO.MPKKS FLAYED
FOR CONSERVATISM.
Labor party speakers flayed Gompers
for his “consarvatlsm” and supporters of
the pending resolution attacked the labor
party as a movement of "upstarts” bent
on using the trade union movement to
further their own selfish ends.
A third faction took a band In the de
bate ami called both sides to account for
Injecting politics Into a union meetiug
The union. It was said, baa for ita pur
pose tbe advancement of trade unionism
and has nothing to gain by trailing off
after any political "Ism.”
GOMPERM INDORSEMENT
IS VOTED DOWN.
This faction voted down the resolution
Indorsing Oornpere, hut speakers de
dared their action was not to be con
streed as opposition to Mr. Gompers ano
Tits program or to the American Federa
tion of Labor.
The sole aim was to forestall introduc
tion of "time-wasting political discus
sion In union council*."
A further motion to expunge from the
record all allusions to the resolution ana
debate was carried. The purpose of that
move was to destroy any appearance of
criticism of the parent body or Its leader.

State to Provide
Bird Sanctuaries
Sanctuaries for lnseptivorous birds
will he provided as a part of the refor
estation plans of the Indiana depart
ment of conservation. It was announced
today by Richard Lleber, director of
the department.
Nesting places will be arranged In
park reservations, now opened, this
spring. Efforts will be made to provide
as nearly natural environment as pos
sible for birds native to Indiana. The
Indiana Audubon society will assist the
department In this artistic endeavor.
“Importance of bird life to farmers
and fruit growers is not generally ap
preciated,” said Mr. Lieber. "Many
caterpillars eat twice their weight off
plant life dally. If birds are present in
sufficient number they will prevent ex
cessive increase of any kind of pest.”
