TUESDAY EVENING,
STATE WILL PUSH
FIREBUG CASES
Attorney General's Department
Takes Over Prosecutions
of Actions
Prosecutions of all cases involving
charges of causing forest fires will be
handled hereafter by the attorney gen
eral's department, which is now in
charge of actions for violators of the
game, fish and similar laws, arrange
ments having been made this week for
the chief forest fire warden to bring
to the attention of the legal depart
ment cases wherein it is suspected
that forest fires were started through
carelessness or by disobedience of the
law.
Investigations into causes of fires
this Spring has been under way and
several have already been reported,
although in a number of cases per
sons accused of responsibility for fires
have settled. In one such case the
awner of a saw mil! In Fulton county
did not wait for a warrant to be
served, but paid the costs and dam
ages and offered the time of himself
;and his crew to extinguish fires when
needed. Some of the railroads of
I the state have co-operated by estab
lishing patrols and by equipment of
locomotives with spark arresters.
Fire Warden George Heddings, of
Milton reported to the capitol this
| week that Bucknell students built a
jcamp fire in the mountains back of
Milton to warm their lunches. The
fire spread through the leaves to the
surrounding forest, and was soon be
yond their control. It was extin
suished by the warden and a crew of
lire fighters only after a hard battle.
The students were identified beyond a
'doubt, and have since reimbursed the
State for the cost of extinguishing the
lire, and paid damages to the owner
of the forest for the injured timber.
Brush burning on windy days is re
ported as having caused forest fires
near Honey Grove, Bellefonte, and
j Emporium. In each case the fires
were traced by the forest employes to
those who burned the brush, and "amic
able settlements have been made out
i of court.

COLISEUM LEADS
WITH CONVENTIONS
Place of G. O. P. Meeting Has
History Rich in Political
Interest
Chicago, May 30. The Chicago
Coliseum, where the Republican Na
tional Convention of 1916 will be held
beginning June 7. has n history rich
in political interest. More national
political conventions nave been held
in it than in any other building in the
United States.
Three Republican national conven
tions have been held within its walls
and it was there also that the Pro
gressive party, in 1912. held its first
national convention and nominated
Col. Theodore Roosevelt for president.
The Republicans nominated their
presidential ticket in the Chicago Coli
seum in 1904, 1908 and 1912.
The building was designed as a
model convention hall but later adapt
ed to broader uses. It was built by
Charles F. Gunther and several busi
ness associates on the site of the old
Libby Prison War Museum, at Wabash
avenue and Fifteenth street, less than
a mile from the hotel and retail shop
ping district.
The castellated walls of the old war
prison were used for the Wabash ave
nue side of the structure. It was
Huilt of stone, brick, steel and glass
tnd was finished in 1900. The build
ing is 403 feet long, 170 feet wide, and
110 feet high and cost nearly sl,-
000,000. It has a wide balcony ex
tending around three or the walls and
is well lighted and ventilated.
Uullil Additional Balconies
For this year's convention two ad
ditional balconies with seats for "32
persons have been built between the
main floor and the regular balcony.
This gives a total seating capacity of
12,400 of which 9.41.10 seats are on
he main floor and 3,000 in the bal
conies. The crowds will enter through
four main doors on the Wabash ave
nue side. There are 22 exits. There
will be 100 doorkeepers and 100 ushers
in addition to a large special detail of
police to handle the great crowds.
The seating arrangement will follow
the general plan of former conven
tions although several changes have
been made which it is believed will
add to the comfort and convenience of
the delegates and visitors.
The speakers platform, twenty
feet long and forty feet wide, is at
the south end of the building. It
will provide seats for the officers of
the convention and members of the
Republican National committee. Sus
pended over the stend Is a specially
designed sounding board. It consists
of an inverted concaved pyramid built
of wood with the apex over the head
of the presiding officer. It is de
signed to throw the voice through the
hall. Directly in the rear of the
speaker's stand Is a raised platform
with 2,000 seats for the use of presi
dential candidates and other distin
guished guests. On cither side of the
speaker's platform, extending the en
tire width of the building is a press
section, containing 558 seats for work
ing newspaper men.
Thousand* of Seats
In front of the speaker's stand are
the seats for the 991 delegates and
back of these is the space set aside
for the seating of the alternates. The
section reserved for delegates and al
ternated is enclosed with a heavy rail.
(The rest of the main floor and all the
i balconies will be used for seats to
accommodate the crowds of visitors.
Adjoining the coliseum on the
south is an annex three stories high,
170 feet deep and with a frontage of
about 100 feet on Wabash avenue. It
Ila connected with the main building
by several broad entrances.
In the basement of the annex, at the
south end of the main building and
near the speaker's stand, is the tele
graph and telephone room where
scores of special wires have been in
stalled for the use of the news gath
ering associations and newspapers in
.--•ending stories of the convention to
every section of the country. In the
basement of the main building is a
completely equipped temporary hos
pital in charge of 25 of Chicago's
loading physicians and surgeons who
i have volunteered their services for the
(occasion.
The upper floors of the annex have
i been fitted up with the administrative
rooms of the officers of the conven
tion. Here are the private offices of
the chairman, secretary, treasurer and
I a score of minor officials. The con
vention postofflce for the prompt dis
tribution of mail to the officials and
I delegates is in this section. There is
la large meeting room for the Repub
lican National Committee and numer
ous rooms for use of the committee#
! of the convention.
In the decoration of the convention
hall the managers departed from the
i long established practice of practical
ly relying exclusively on flags and
j bunting to obtain the desired artistic
: effect. This year the scheme of In
terior ornamentation is more elabor
ate and artistic than ever before, ac
cording to experts. The plan was de
signed by R. C. Hall, superintendent of
the Coliseum and Julius Ploto , an
architect. White and gold dominate
the color scheme while American
:lags, shields and bunting are used to
(complete the working out of the deco
! rative plan.
Eight thousand yards of white cloth,
4,000 yards of gold cloth, 3,000 yards
!of red, white and blue bunting and
360 American flags and shields were
j used in the interior ornamentation of
the convention hall. The bare brick
i walls and steel girders which support
the roof are concealed by 26 panels
|of white cloth, each 25x50 feet. Each
panel is decorated with a deep flounce
of gold cloth. Hanging from the
root in the center under the large
glass ventilators are large bars of gold
cloth which add to the artistic effect
without obstructing light and air. The
balconies are tastefully festooned with
red, white and blue bunting caught
every 10 feet with bunches of small
American flags and shields.
On the wall back of the speaker's
stand Is hung a large oil portrait of
Abraham Lincoln wnlch has been in
six Republican national conventions
since it was painted in 1864. it was
loaned to the convention by its owner,
George Prince of New Tork.

Hartford City, Ind., May 30.—Coro
ner Charles Rutledge filed a report of
murder yesterday after an inquest in
the death of Geraldine Stout, 8, who
while riding in an automobile Sunday |
with her parents, Dr. and Mrs. C. E.
Stout, was killed by a bucket of corn, '
hurled by Albert Thomas, 45, a !

He explained his act by saying that!
he was startled by the sudden appear- i

his hands, accidentally throwing the S

however, assert that Thomas cursed
them as he let go of the bucket.
