WANT A LONG FRANCHISE.
Ac Electric Street Oar Company Offers to Put In a Plant. Messrs. Powell and Hatch of the Kankakee Street Railway Construction Company have returned home, failing to gel. their proposition before the council this week. They will return and make it at the next meeting, however. Their company offers to put in a S(0,000 electric street railway of the "overhead" system, work to be begun within four months after the granting of the franchise and completed within a year from that time The proposed line nets the city pretty thoroughly. Tracks will run from city limit to city limit on Wabash avenue and Main street. A track beginning at the Monon station runs south to Market, thence west to Washington, tbence south to College and thence east to the Junction and Big Four station. The projectors state that they will take all the stock but if Crawfordsville parties desire some they can have it. They will'maintain their own electric plant and will build somewhere in the oust end. They want a 10 years franchise and this fact we believe, warrants the council in making a very careful and close investigation -before making a grant. The city isn't anxious to be tied up for 40 years unless the tie up is to her advantage. Crawfordsville isn't hankering after boDdage of any sort and her law makors should be exceedingly sure that they are right before going ahead. The Kankakee company seems to be fair and its representative state that it will do the square thing. Doubtless it will but the council should rnnke sure of it by an iron clad franchise with a proviso tacked on to the effect that the franchise shall be void if sold by those to whom i». is originally granted.

A
Young Man With More Money Than Brains Abroad in the Land. The following special from Shelbyville will be of interest here:
For several days there has been a young man in this city whs is acting in very curious manner. Saturday night he arrived from the west on a Big Four train, and stopped at the Bay House, giving his name as M. H. Henry, of Dayton, Ohio. He ordered supper and gave the two girls who served him attable a five dollar bill. He gave the porter $4 for building afire in his room Sunday afternoon he went to one of the livery stables and while they were hitching up he went across the street to a jewelry store and purchased a handsome gold watch and chain and a diamond necklace, which an hour afterwards he gave to a young lady he had never seen before. Monday morning he interviewed a number of real estate brokers, telling them that he was hnnt ing a site for & hotel and opera use.
They showed him around and he seemed to be satisfied with the locations presented. He told some young ladies that he waB from Crawfordsville, but when confronted with a former resident of that place he said he lived at, Ladoga He bought a thousand mile ticket on the Big Four road and signed his name M. Clark. He did not drink or gamble while he was here, but seemed to have an unlimited amount of money.
When Clark left Shelbyville he returned to Crawfordsville and has been in this county ever since. He hails from Lebanon, Ohio, and his name is Mart Clark. He has been visiting relatives near Ladoga for some time and is a frequent visitor at Crawfordsville, spending much time and money here with young men of rose colored ehnrr.cters.

"Bloody Sophe in the Soup. Compli inents ot '96.'' This forcible inscription WHS piiinttd hap hazard on a tag fastened by an inch ropo around the neck of A. V. Tuller, a member of the Rose Polytechnic sophomore class, who thrown into the banquet hall of the Terre Haute House last night in the midet ot an elegant class supper which wns be ing enjoyed by the "tinted sophs. His pricipitous entrance cast ao instantaneous gloom over the assemblage. Fur a moment ne of tha banqueters recognized their fellow soph in the awful garb
had been forced to don. Ue v.v.s clad in a woman's night gown whit'h enveloped him from head to foo'., ?i-d over his shining white habiliments hung the ominous card that toll in the twinkling of an eye that the unfortunate soph had fallen into the hands of their mortal enemies, the freshies. The affair precipitated a bloody battle between the classes which rivaled old time sport at Wabash,
A Bad Bill.
The following bill by Senator Ellison passed after some opposition by the majority of the Republicans and Senator Seller and a few other Democrats: "That no person shall be eligible to appointment or election to tho office of county school superintendent who does not bold, at the time of his appointment or election to said office, a teacher's professional license issued by the State board of education of Indiana, or a cense or diploma of equal or higher grade in the opinion of said State board of education: Provided, That the provisions of this act shall not take effect and be in force till on and after the first
Monday of November, 1894." Senator Ellison made a convincing ar grment in favor of a better grade of school superintenden s. There were superintendents in various counties who held only six months' licenses when elected. There would be no trouble in finding men with the proper qualifica tions to run for the offices. The majority of the superintendents were for the bill. The opposition came fio:u the raossback superintendent.
Senator Seller's speech against the bill attranted the attention ot tha galleries and the Senators as well. He took the ground that the less a man knew, tiie better superintendent he wonld make. He believed in the law requiring first class licenses.
Senator McDonald—"Do you believe we ought to return to the old system of boarding around?"
Mr. Seller evaded the question and made the statement that no one held State licenses. Mr. Ellison answered that over 400 teachers held them. His speech helped tho friends the bill, for it placed those who opposed it in a ridiculous attidude.—hulionajiolin Sentinel.
Senator Seller probably took no such ground as the Sentinel credits him with His opposition to the bill was right and proper and more persons than "moss backs" are opposed to it. It is CIBBS legislation and will bar many capable and fit men from an office of great im portance.

It was pro dticed with but little advance booming in New York, and made a hit on its first night that was decisive and emphatic. "Gloriana" is said to be a "joy for ever," this term having been applied to it by one ot tho most accomplished Now York critics. Its-fun is incessant and produces ono continuous roar of laughter from the rise until the final curtain. It is full of acting, and the company presenting it is credited with making moro distinguished individual hits than uny in New York in along lime. George W. Barnum, the leading man, has a big reputation as an nctor ef brilliant methods and marked versatility. Tho remainder of the cast is made up ot excellent neoplo and includes Charles Drake, John Allen, G.

In the Indiana news of to-day's JOUKNAL will be found an account of tha capture of Miss Hollingsworth who ran off from Coates college some days since.

That such barbarism should b6 permitted by the authorities or indulged in by the students is certainly a matter of surprise to the friends of the institution here.
