Doctor Said No But Hanly Said
Yes.
ON ROAD TO RECOVERY.
Indianapolis, May 3. Against the
positive instructions of his physicians
to remain in bed for at least two days
longer, Governor Hanly yesterday aft
ernoon took a carriage drive about the
city. This was the first time he had
been out of his room for more than
three weeks. For days the governor
had chafed under hi3 confinement and
yesterday's sunshine made him desire
to get out in the open. His physician
was consulted, but that official said
"no'' in a forceful and unmistakable
way. He had not more than left tlj
house, however, than the governor be
gan to make arrangements for a
drive. He was accompanied by Mrs.
Hanly and remained out for the great
er part of an" hour. He shows that he
has been seriously ill. His face is
wan and his voice Is high and thin.
He seemed cordial and hearty to his
friends, however, and it is thought he
will build up rapidly.

CONSIDER THE SITUATION
DR. BOND WILL ALSO ATTEND
IMPORTANT CONVENTIONS.
Dr. Charles S. Bond will leave Sun
day to attend two important meetings
in the East, in addition to visiting the
bureau of animal industry at Wash
ington city, where he will - make ar
rangements with the government for
meat inspection, which has been prom
ised this city. He will present to the
department the conditions in Rich
mond at the present time and just
what the butchers are willing to do in
order to secure the inspection.
Dr. Bond will be in position to tell
the bureau of the intentions of the
butchers, as there will be a butchers'
meeting before he leaves to look over
the present slaughtering establish
ments, and investigate just what will
have to be done to the points, that gov
ernment inspection may be secured.
The slaughtering houses probably will
be arranged close together, that the
inspectors may work to a better ad
vantage. The main change in the
conditions will be the nature of the
floors. These will all have to be
changed to comply with the govern
ment's standard.
While in Washington Dr. Bond will
attend the sessions of the American
physicians' national medical organiza
tion, whose membership la limited to
one hundred. Dr. Bond is on the
program.

FEELING ARISES AT
VILLAGER BOSTON
trustee A. B. Parks and Board
Of the Methodist Church
Had a Difference.
OVER THE COMMENCEMENT.
EXERCISES WERE HELD IN THE
CHRISTIAN CHURCH BECAUSE
TRUSTEE PARKS WAS REFUSED
USE CF METHODIST STRUCTURE
There is considerable feeling; exist
ing between , Trustee A. B. Parks of
Boston township and the trustees of
the Boston Methodist church. The
trouble originated over the commence
ment exercises of the Boston township
schools which were held Thursday ev
ening at the Christian church.
There has been considerable agita
tion in Boston of late favoring the
placing of cement sidewalks on all the
streets of the village. Mr. Parks, be
sides being township trustee, is also
one of the trustees of the Methodist
church, which has the largest seating
capacity of any building in the town.
He desired to have the commence
ment exercises held at the Methodist
church and as it had been decided to
establish a new precedent by charging
a ten cent admission to these exer
cises Mr. Parks made a proposition to
his brother trustees that part of the
proceeds derived from the commence
ment exercises would be turned ' over
to the church to help meet its assess
ment for the cement walks.
Was Refused the Keys.
The trustees were pleased with the
proposition and accepted it. Thurs
day morning Mr. Parks went to the
Methodist church for the purpose of
decorating it but the janitor refused
to give him the keys. When pressed
for a reason by Mr. Parks the janitor
stated that the trustees had ordered
him not to allow Mr. Parks the use
of the church for . the commencement
exercises.
In high dudgeon Mr. Parks-immediately
went to the. trustees of the
Christian church, which is quite a
small edifice, and made them the same
proposition that he had the trustees
of the Methodist church. The proposi
tion was accepted and Thursday night
the small building was simply pack
ed, the accommodations being entire
ly insufficient. The action of the
Methodist church trustees in turn
ing down Mr. Parks' proposition
after once accepting it remains unex
plained. The Incident has created
considerable talk in Boston township.

That the great Y. M. C. A. meeting
held at the coliseum Tuesday night,
aroused greater interest in the cause,
probably more than any other known
source, was evidenced Thursday night,
when the young men's committees re
ported ?l,07o.lO to the cause, - liqui
dating their pledge of $1,000 made at
the mass meeting. Instead of these
young men, who have already raised
more money for the work than any
young men's committees in the United
States, abandoning their efforts and
leaving the executive committee to
raise the remaining $5.00O, they an
nounced that they would immediately
lend their efforts to aid the executive
committee in raising its pledge.

shown by the members of the young

NELSON'S EMPLOYES
ARE OUT Oil STRIKE
St. Louis Philanthropist, Who
Has Done Much for Dublin
Has Labor Disturbance.
MORE WAGES DEMANDED.
MR. NELSON SAYS THE MEN ARE
IN THE ATTITUDE OF STRIKING
AGAINST THEMSELVES AS THE
-CONCERN JSwC-QpijRAIA
The following St. Louis dispatch
will be of Interest In Wayne county,
owing to what Mr. Nelson has done
for Dublin:
One hundred machinists employed
at the co-operative village of Leclalre,
near Edwardsville, 111., founded by N.
O. Nelson, president of the N. O. Nel
son Manufacturing Company of St.
Louis, declared a walkout yesterday
afternoon.
According to Mr. Nelson, who de
parted for Kansas City last night, the
men are in the position of striking
against themselves, as each is a stock
holder in the Leclalre company, and
directly interested in the business.
The striking machinists are in the
brass shop and in the- machine shops,
but while their union affiliations are
separate they are united in the pres
ent demand for a 10 per cent, increase
In wages.
Mr. Nelson, in a speech to the men
yesterday, blamed the international
union for the dissatisfaction manifest,
and advised them not to act hastily.
Each union held a meeting yesterday
morning and gave the management
until 2 o'clock to accede to the de
mands. The men quit at the appoint
ed hour.
Leclalre is a suburb of Edwardsville
and partly Inside the city limits. It
was founded several years ago by Mr.
Nelson, to put into effect his philan
thropic ideas of a co-operative town.
Nelson Addresses the Men.
In his speech to the striking work
men yesterday, Mr. Nelson said:
"The international unions are not
familiar with the Leclaire idea- and
cannot pass on Leclalre conditions of
employment or know what demands
are reasonable. Unionism is impor
tant and useful for certain purposes,
but in our case it has never in any
manner benefited our employes, for
the reason that Leclaire was establish
ed and has been conducted entirely
for the benefit of the employes, and
whatever the management can afford
to do is done without compulsion.
"The employes and customers now
own a large portion of the company
and in three or four years will own
practically all. By actual figures we
are paying higher wages than the ma
jority of the shops making similar
goods.
. "My interests are chiefly in behalf
of the shops and the men receiving
lower pay. ; The Nelson employes, not
only in Leclaire, but In Bessemer,, St.
Louis and elsewhere, are absolutely
self-employing. No trouble of any
kind has ever arisen between us or
ever can except by command of for
eign authorities, the International un
ions." CONDUCTOR HAYES IS IN
CRITICAL CONDITION.
J. J. Hayes, the conductor who was
Injured last Sunday in a G. R. & I.
wreck near Colletts is critically ill at
his home in Ft. Wayne. Brakeman
Kime is recovering slowly but is con
tained to his bed.

The Opener and Liked Play
Of Richmond Aggregation

SUMMARY OF THE GAME.
Richmond defeated the All Ken-
tuckians 12 to 2.
Game was slow and one-sided.
The Colonels could do nothing
with Rodenbach.
Errors, bases on balls and good
hitting helped the locals to win.
Bud Lally umpired the game.
Mayor Schillinger pitched the first
ball. .
It's all over but the shouting. The'
baseball season in Richmond was for-;
mally opened Thursday afternoon at'
Athletic park In the presence of diver
city and county officials, prominent
business men, society leaders and sev
eral hundred of mere populace. Tha
season was opened with the usual
time-honored ceremonies but best of
all it was opened with a victory for
the locals, who trounced the All-Ker.-tuckians
12 to 2. , It was a lop-sided,
affair and as slow as a funeral march,
but nevertheless the Quakers won
about six hundred happy homes - by
their work. -
Everything was ideal for the open
ing of the season, except, of course, tho
seating arrangements. The big week
day crowd of about six hundred an-I
several hundred kids, was strewn on
three sides of the diamond. Back of
an ancient 'wire backstop, two hun
dred men held down a dinky little

sprawled 'on the grassy sward or an
chored themselves to camp stools pro
vided by ground ' keeper "Doc" En
field and a corps of polite and gentle
maply assistants. Under the circum
stances ; the crowd was well handled
and comfortable.
Sassy Grey Scenery.
After the Quakers had taken their
warm up, dressed in their sassy grey
coming out gowns, the diamond was
cleared, and Judge H. C. Fox; of the
circuit court, marched toward home
plate, followed by his suite of county
and city officials and stockholders la
the Richmond 'Amusement company.
A dense silence fell as the judge clear
ed his throat. . Then in the midst ot
some more silence His Honor said: 'T
did not expect to come here this aft
ernoon, but Sheriff Meredith came aft
er me with his handcuffs and mace
and compelled me to be among those
present." Judge Fox then told what
a great, game our national pastime Is;
how the Richmond Amusement com
pany had shown worthy enterprise In
putting a fast team in the field an I
that the company should be7 given en
couragement In its venture. He
wound up by stating that work would
be Btarted immediately on a large,
commodious grandstand and that tfca
diamond would be put in the best con
dition. Judge Fox's remarks wera
greeted with enthusiastic cheers. While
the large noise was still in progress

down the bench, owing to an extremv
Iy fat leg, "sicked" his pennant chas

wagon-tongue, again stepped to his po
