BRIDGE 0F THE EIGHT ARCHES, NEAR ART A
By WILLIAM H. HUTCHISON.
Beautiful Greece!
Down through the ages Greece has
stood foremost among the nations of the
world in wonderful tradition; its poetry
and art have ever stood as masterpieces.
W.th its plcturesqne monastarles built
on craggy ledges, its ruins of superb
architecture and (.be memory of its spieni
did intellects in arts, sciences and poll
tics, Greece long has been regarded by
her sister nations a sort of antique shop,
wherein connoisseurs f art and literary
criitcs browse amid dusty remnants of
that land of long ago.
It is that impression, maintained by
the general public, and more especially
by the American people, the Greeks wish
to correct.
One of the first steps taken along this
line is the preparation of an exhibit of
photographs, statuary and needlework,
embodying the work of both ancient and
modern Greeks, which has been sent to
this country by the Greek government.
The collection is now on display at
the John Herron Art Institute.
The photographs are the work of Fred
eric Boissonnas, noted Swiss photog
rapher, and were first placed on display
last year in the Boeotian Hall, Paris,
while the Peace Conference was in ses
sion.
The collection was brought to this
country and exhibited in the Grand
Central Palace in New York City for
six weeks.
MORE THAN
400 PHOTOGRAPHS.
Memories of all that is beautiful is
recalled on viewing these photographs,
/Which number more than four hundred.
Here is a view of the purple shore
extending far out into a silvery sheen
of one of the many bays which indent
tbe Greek coast, its soft gray-green olive
groves in strange contrast with a neigh
bor photograph of those rugged moun
tains which rise majestically to the
cloud line, only to be broken off abrupt

chance to build on them those quaint
monasteries and peaceful citadels.
There is a certain fascination in look
ing at the forty views of the Acropolis,
which are so vividly depicted by Bota
sonnas.
One picture shows the Parthenon Just
after a rain, the marble floors reflect
ing the pillars, and in the background
the storm clouds passing away.
In another view the Parthenon stands
out vividly against a dark sky, bright
ened somewhat by a rainbow.
No j wonder the ancient bards were
fired with artistic tendencies!
The visitor wanders through scenes of
Attica and the Peloponnesus, explores
the monastarles of Thessaly, built high
on the granite walls, to which no woman
is admitted, and to which only occasion
oily are male visitors allowed to enter,
the ascension to tbe threshold being made
In a rope basket, raised by a windlass.
ALSO VIEWS OF
MODERN LIFE.
From scene j of tbe quaint t batch
roofed windmills of the Isle of Myeonos
to the Gate of Lions of the Isle of Delos,
through the land of Leucade, where
Sappho leaped Into the sea, the visitor
revels in the imagination stirred by the
photographs.
And the gorgeous sunsets!
The Greeks denounce that word: they
say that so beautiful and full of splendor
are those scenes that they liken them
unto a princely ruler on a magnificent
throne in terming It "sun-relgns.”
There are views of the Grecian women
at the public fountain, the social gath
ering place of the community, and there
are pastoral scenes.
Modern American plows and machin
ery are In evidence in ail parts of Greece,
and one picture shows three harvesters
in a field, the background of which is
formed by the rains of the temple of
the Nemean Zeus, a national sanctuary.
One section of the exhibit is given over
to tbe weavings and embroideries of the
country women of Greece.

URGES NEW FISH
AND GAME LAWS
Department of Conservation
Asks Protection.
| Announcement was made today by the
State Department of Conservation that it
will endeavor to have constructive legis
lation created at tbe next session of tbe
general assembly in January, to change
some of the fish and game laws and for
the enactment of others.
Indiana game and fish laws now in
force are cumbersome, inefficient, anti
quated and fail to make the conserva
tion, propagation and perpetuation of
wild and aquatic life possible, it is
said.
That they are in need of correction
all familiar with them will admit, says
j George N. Mannfeld, superintendent of
i the division of fish and game, in a letter
I sent to 108 fish and game protective as
-1 sociatioDs now functioning in the State,
j MANY FAVOR STATE
J OWNERSHIP OF GAME.
Mr. Mannfeld points that the depart
! meat hag in mind thirty-one changes
| which should he embodied in bills and
| presented for enactment.
He further states that a canvass among
i the 108 associations In the State dis
closes that the members are solidly be
! hind legislation that will create State
! ownership of wild game; a closed season
ion bats v durlng spawning time; elimlna
' tion of the clause permitting one to hunt
in their adjacent county without a li
cense, and a bag limit, oh rabbits with a
shorter open season for them.
Attention is called to the meeting of
the Indiana Fish, Game and Forest
League, which will be held at the Den
ison Hotel. Oct. 28
FISH AND GAME EXPERT
TO ATTEND SESSION.
This meeting wilt be of signal im
portance, Inasmuch ala representative
from the division of fish and game of
the State Conservation Department will
attend and discuss with delegates pres
ent its plans and purposes.
The following changes in the laws are
advocated by the department:
1. To establish without nuestlon the
ownership of fish, game, birds. wild ani
mals turtles, frogs and mussels.
2. Extensive changes In the fur bearing
laws establishing uniform opening and
clothing dates on all such animals and
establishing a license for trapping.
3. establishment of a bag limit oa
rabbits.
4. Lengthening closed season on rab
bits.
6. Establishment of a bag limit on
sq uirrel*.
6. Prohibiting the use of trot lines in
lakes.
■hip of the rugs, applique* and brocades
show the unique feminine taste of the
modern Grecian women.
All the wool used is dyed by the natives
and the color combinations of the tapes
tries are of such standard that is noth
ing lees than amasing.
That the exhibit is appreciated Is evi
dence! by the fact that approximately
100.000 person* have witnessed the ex
hibition.
The exhibition is admirably bainneed,
and the reproductions of pottery and dag
gers blend harmoniously with the needle
craft and photographic history of that
tradition-laden land of Homer.

the opportunity to bring them before the
department. Collectively we can discuss
such questions with you where it would

HAAGS MAY DODGE
30-DAY SENTENCE
New Action Seen as Effort to
Beat State Case.
Action of counsel foV Louis E. Haag
and Julius A. Haag, Indianapolis drug
gists now serving sentences in tbe Fed
eral prison at Atlanta, Ga., on charges
of conspiring to violate the Reed amend
ment and for Importation of intoxicat
ing liquor into the State for beverage
purposes, in dismissing the Haag’s ap
peal from tbe judgment of the Marion
County Criminal Court for violating the
State prohibition law, seem to indicate
that the Ilaags are attempting to serve
their Federal and State sentences at the
same time.
The Haags appealed from a thirty-day
sentence-'to the Indiana state farm, which
was imposed by the Criminal Court, and
meantime tbe Federal Court sentenced
them to a federal prison.
Several days ago the ’Haags, through
counsel, dismissed the appeal to the In
diana State Supreme Court and the origi
nal sentence of thirty days each will be
referred back to the Criminal Court.
The clerk of the Criminal Court stated
that no steps have been taken as far
as he knows to allow the Haags to serve
the State sentence of thirty days while
serving the federal sentence.
John Ruckelsbaus, one of the attorneys
for the Haags, refused to throw any light
on the motive back of the Haags dis
missing the appeal case from the Criminal
Court.
Those who are watching the case
closely predict that the Ilaags shortly,
through counsel, will notify Judge James
A. Collins that they are ready to serve
the thirty days at this time, but the

Notice to Gas Consumers
You Cannot Use Gas for Heating and
Expect to Have Any for Cooking
IT CAN NOT BE DONE
The consumption of gas yesterday was at the rate of 15,000,000
cubic feet per day as compared with 8,011,000 cubic feetduring the
24 hours ending 7 a. m. Tuesday. This large increase clearly in
dicates that gas was used for heating. The large demand yester
day was beyond our ability to meet and consequently we were
forced to temporarily reduce pressures in the afternoon to en
able us to conserve the available supply for use during the cook
ing hours.
It will be absolutely necessary to discontinue all heating with
gas and start up furnaces and other coal or coke burning heat
ing equipment if there is to be any gas for cooking.
We ask the co-operation of every ga3 consumer in our effort to
keep Indianapolis supplied with gas for cooking purposes.
CITIZENS GAS COMPANY
Statq.will be unable to obtain their cus
tody.
! Others see in the dismissal of the ap
peal an admission that the Haags proba
bly are seeking to be released soon from
prison because of good behavior.
As the records of the Criminal Court
now stand, the Haags are ordered com
mitted to the Indiana State farm for
thirty days.
How to get around actually serving
it is a problem which appears now to
be of the utmost concern to the Haags.
In this connection it is recalled that
while Robert Sloan, bootlegger, was
serving a sentence imposed by the Fed
eral Court, in the county jail, an at
tempt was made by Judge James A
Collins and Alvah J. Rucker, then prose
cutor, to sentence Sloan to serve a con
current sentence in a case then pending
in the Criminal Court.
Judge' Anderson gave Collins and
Rucker twenty-four hours in which to
expurgate the Criminal Court records of
the proceedings, informing them that he
would not tolerate the “farce,” and ad
vising them to purge the record or thej
would face contempt proceedings in his
court.
Coal Strike Looms
in Great Britain
LONDON, Sept. 30.—Danger of a na

was regarded as more serious than at
any time, heretofore when the miners’
conference was resumed today.
Extremists apparently had reasserted
their control.
• Representatives of South Wales’ min
ers headed tbe radical group.
Their insistence on an immediate wage
increase of two .shilling per day prac
