Trade Palace Openimr.

The grand opening of tho Trade Palace last evening was a success in every respect. The mammoth room lighted by several hundred incundescent lights was in spite of the inclement weather, crowded with spectators. The goodH and especially those of the millinery and rug departments were attractively displayed with a profusion of potted plants intermingled. Music by the orchestra was a feature.

REUBENS AND SWALLOWTAILS.

They Meet in Joint Convention and Knife Each Other Sturdily.

The Ragged Reubens drew first blood and it ran down Dr.Gott'B beard oven os tho prooious ointment ran down Aaron's beard oven to the skirts of his garment. It's pretty tough, but it's mighty true just the same. You see, the "swallow tails" of the Democratic party had it all cut and dried to make the worthy medicine man the chairman of the convention which assembled this morning to select delegates to the congressional and legislative conventions. As soon as chairman Johnson called the meeting to order, peacemaker Hulett arose and nominated Dr. Gott as presiding officer. Some old chromo arose and asked if there couldn't be two chairmen, but Mr. Johnston smiled and rather thought there couldn't. He was just about to call up Dr. Gott without the formality of a little matter of a voto by the convention when up arose your Uncle Harris Reynolds, a Ragged Reuben in whom there is no guile even if he did fight John Lamb. Uncle Reynolds is about tho smartest Democrat in Montgomery county and when he made a speech and nominated Gen. Manson as chairman the Swallowtails ducked their heads betwoen said tails and scurried for their holes. It was evident that Gen. Manson would go through with a whoop BO Judge Britton hustled over to Hulett and urged him to withdraw Gott'sname. 'Well I'm going to," replied Walter in a sort of dazed way as ho emerged from the crowd and did tho bidding. All looked for another scrap in regard to the secretary but this was avoided by choosing two, viz: Rugged Reuben

Henkle and Swallowtail Bowers. It

SENATORIAL—Elijah 0. Kennedy, W. L. Hulett, John G. Overton, Robert F. Beck, Emerson E. Ballard, Henry D. Vancleave, Jacob Steele, John Kelley, Bouth Green street, James E. Kennedy, Jerry T. Chadwick, Braxton Cash, Andrew J. Fullen, Redden B. Snyder.

REPRESENTATIVE—Jasper N. Davidson, Wm. McMaken, Thomas Lynch, James H. Watson, Wm. C. Murphy, Christ Dice, Wm. E. Henkle, James A. Brannon, Oath Catterlin, Jacob Metzger, Michael McCarthy, Grant Agnew, M. V. B. Smith.

When tho Sellar slate had beautifully browned that of Carroll, the Sellarites graciously consented that the defeated slata should represent the township in the Representative convention. When the county convention convened this afternoon the several townships named tho delegates they had selected. In the out townships the race between Sollar nnd Carroll on the Senatorial issued was divided with the odds in favor of the redoubtable Swallowtail. Fcr all that Carroll has declared that ho will go down to tho district convention and there oppose Sellar. The feeling is exceedingly bitter and the Bplit is on with enthusiasm. Some of Sellar's slate are pronounced Ragged Reubens and they may yet lly the track.

Great interest was manifested to see which part of fho compound secretary would do the heavy work of calling off the townships and it fell to Ragged Reuben Henkle with a dull thud that made the tail of every true Swallowtail turn temporarily gray.

Before adjourning tho convention passed resolutions endorsing Brookshire and good old father Canine got up nnd told how "me and him aro bu.ly good friends, even if I did poster him on the money question." We all know father Canine would return to his wallowing in the mire in spite of the F. M. B. A.

It has become BO of late that a part of theB© worthy people seem to consider it their bounden nnd Christian duty to visit Crawfotdsville every day and if funds nre available to get staring, stone blind drunk. Accordingly after to-day a rule goes into force by which the inmates of the county home enn visit Crawfordsville on Tuesdays and Tuesdays only. The saloons will take notice accordingly.

then resolved that the several townships go into separate convention and choose delegates to be named at 1:30 o'clock this afternoon. There was then a temporary adjournment.

As Boon as the voters of Union township went into convention a violent scrap between the Carroll and Sollar faction began. Both those gentlemen want to bo joint Senator und their friends ,vore hustling around in great stylo. After a wrangle a vote was taken which resulted in tho selection of the Sellar slate. The delegates elected from this township to the several conventions were as follows:

CONGRESSIONAL—W. P. Herron, W. T. Gott, W. B. Chombers, Chas. Johnston, R. B. Snyder, W. E. Henkle, J. M. eeney.

IX FLAMES.

THE UENTRAL SCHOOL BUILDING

PK0BABLY DE3TR0YEU. ...

Tlie Fire Still Burning-Pire Boys Futht-

ing Like Heroes.

Just as THE JOITRNAI was ready to go to prose the fire alarm was sounded and before the bolt ceased to toll the number of tho district flames broke out from the cupola of the Central school building with a eort of puff as though there had been an explosion.

Tho streots wore soon crowdod with people running after the fire department which made a splendid run. Thousands had soon congregated on the scone nnd the largo yard and strooti were crowded with excited people.

It was evident from the first that the building was doomed as it had taken fire in the lower and before it was discovered t.ho whole third story was on fire and the department wart unablu to ipo with it successfully.

Tho fire burned fiorcaly and the llntue was soon roaring high skyward accompanied by huge volumes of yellow smoke. The department attached tho hose to the plug on tho corner of Jefferson and Green and from there carried the ho3e up to the building and then up tho central stairway and up to the third floor where tho fire was raging. It soon becamo too hot to endure, however, nnd tho department was obliged to retreat to the second, then to the first floor, nnd finally outside of the building whore the worn out workmen could only stand Bnd gaze at the crumbling walls. The roof and in fact both of the floors fell in with a groat crash but by piecemenl. If there had been a crnsh lives would have boon lost as some persons were utterly reckless in the way they charged through the halls, in utter disregard of tho imminent danger that hung over them. Janitor Dorsey's household goods were rescued from tho basement and a few things from the building.

The origin of the fire is not known. Men had been working in the building all day putting in natural gas, but the gas had not yet been turned ou when the flames broke out, so the fire can not. bo attributed to that. Janitor Dorsey's family are unable to account for it and Mrs. Dorsey stated that so far as she know no one had been in the building all duy. They were wholly unable to advance even a theory, as indeed were tho workmen.

The IOBS will be considerable. The buildirg, which was one of the most 6liowy and substantial in the city, was built between 15 and 20 years ago at a cost of about 875,000 and the insurance which was distributed among the various companies, represented only about $30,000. Besides this there was a loss of about SI,000 in school books, the scholars not being allowed to take their books from the building. Prof. Wellington lost valuable library including a number of rare books, also his printing press nnd cases besides nuinbor of personal effects. All the teachers lost some property and the school library was also lo6t.

The 'several hundred childron who have been attending school there will be provided for elsewhere. The other buildings of the city will be packed nnd rooms nnd other private buildings rented nnd utilized. The young ideas will not escape.

While the loss is a most lamentable one it is certainly a matter of tho greatest congratulation that the fire did not oamr on a school dny.

While tho building cost §75,000 it was built in "high times" and a contractor stated that ho could almost duplicate it for the insurance and what could bo saved from tho rnins.

Tho firemen raise a mighty objection on the weak water pressure. The strenms were deplorably insufficient nnd did not even break the glass in the windows.
