A Fine Show.

A fair house assembled at Music Hall last evening and witnessed the presentation of the comedy "Jane." The per formance wns introduced by a delightful little skit called "CliumB." it was a de licious little morsel o' absurdity abound ing in .ludicrous situations. "Jane,' the three act comedy, followed and was evidently much more pleasing to theau dience as a whole than "Gloriana." It was livelier and louder and called forth volleys of applause. There were some who thought Gloriana better but t-hc-audierjee as an audience hooted the idea, i'rohraau's next play here will be "Wilkinson's Widows" aud hia agenl states that this play will catch both ele ments hard.

I remember the rattan. Many's the lathering I got with it for playing hooky or being remiss in some duty. I used to buy them for tny mother to put into her skirts, and 1 always wont for them reluctantly, be cause I knew they would ba lying around mighty handy when the old lady wanted to castigate me, and a rattan can administer right smart pun ishment, too. But 6teel ribbons took the placo of the rattan long ago, and pappose the rattan won't be in it when tbo hpopskirt comes again."

THE COUNCIL MEETS.

BUSINESS OF IMPORTANCE OOMIS tIP FOR CONSIDERATION LAST EVENING.

Two Companies Ask for Street Oar Fran-chises-Street Paving-Deferred— Other Items of Interest,

The city council met in regular session last night with all present except Reynolds and Myers, who were unavoidably detained.

I'. S. Kennedy reported that he had collected the judgment the city obtained from H. S. Braden and others and had deposited all in the oily treasury except $50 which he kept out as attorney's fee.

The uext matter to coma rip whs the requests for franchisee from two electric street car companies. There were two of these.' The first was from the Street Railway Construction Co., of Kankakee, III. This company wanted a 20 years francnise instead of a -10 years as first proposed. Their franchise provided that tho system should be ovorlieadi that all the poles should be straight, squared poles, painted that tho track should bo standard guage that the inside ot the track arid two feet outside should be paved by the company with tho same material used on the •streets that cars should run every 20 minutes on each line that at leaBt four miles should be put in the first year.

I'lie proposed line waB mapped out as follows: From the Monon station south to Market, west to Washington, south LO Wabash avenue, west to city limits from corner of Wabash avenue ind Washington street south to College, west to Grant Ave., south to F. M. Dice's place from corner of Washing ton and College east to Plnm street, to Plum street station east on College to Mill, south to llaw, east to Junction a ine to run the entire length of Main street one from Main north on Morgan to Binford, thence east to Park avenue.

The second franchise was presented by Joseph T. McNerny, of Lognnspo nd A. F. Ramsey. It is understood that they represent a powerful and responsible syndicate. Their franchise was not so specific as that of the Kankakee people and did not contain all tho rainbow colors the other presented. It lid not ask for nny particular length of time for the franchise to stand and guaranteed to put down bnt two miles tho first year. It Hgreed, however, to put in tracks wherever the council ordered, and at least bore the 6tamp of honesty.

Both franchises were referred to the committee on ordinances, which will mako a report at the special meeting to be held Thursday night.

The city treasurer repeated a balance in the treasury of $2,197.56. Dr. Cowan ot the school board was on hand and made the roport on the expenditure of the money received from the insurance of the old central school building.

The report showed that the centrul building had been rebuilt and refurnished in much more modern and improved style for $20,013.59, leaving a balance of $3,353.05. This balance would bo expended in putting in the dry closet system in the Central aud Mills building. The council extend a votfe of thanks to the board for its judicious expenditures and its truly magnificent showing.

Col. Lemuel Gibson was introduced t,o the council as the colored hero who had saved Judge Snyder from a watery grave and he was voted a modal at once. Mr. Gibson complained of the damage done his property by the overflow on Gibson street and accordingly the judiciary committee was instructed to confer with him and make a settlement if possible.

The superintendent of the c-lectrio light piant reported that the gross cost of running the lights during February had been $975.72. After taking from this the income of the incandescent system the net cost remained 8355.05.

Mr. Tomlinson hero came to tbe front and in honor of hia recent change in life passed the cigars.

The commissioners made thei? reports on Hocum and Oak streets and the report on Oak street was referred back for alterations.

The resignation of Ira McConnell as city civil engineer was received and accepted. Failing health compelled Mr. McConnell to resign to the regret of tbe entire council.

The question of opening a highway through a part of tho old town cemetery

again was taken up and will be further considered. The property owners along tbe alley through which the new fewer runB oast and west wero instructed to clean the ice and filth out.

The question of paving Main -street Chme up incidentally but

which Mr. Smith had on his inside pock- ™n

et was not presented for some reason or !f.feels

This morning BigeBayless was deputized as a sheriff and took in charge master Ira A. Cunningham, the promising eon of Ben Cunningham. Ira has been entirely too precious of late and has made no nicety of how he obtained money with whicn to disport himself after the manner pleasing to the youth of this wayward generation. After considering all things it was judged proper to put Ira in the reform school at Plainiield. He is now there.

Mr. Ramsey's Say,

Mr. A. F. Ramsey states in regard to ths franchise submitted by himself and Mr. McNerny, of Logansport, last evening, that it was given in good faith and if granted the system would be put in as rapidly aj possible. The parties buck of his franchiee are responsible and mean business. Thev do not promise all sorts of impossible things but will give the oily a good and satisfactory service. The council would do well to .consider all things and make some rigid investigntions before letting a franchise go. A forfeiture bond should be exacted and as many earnests secured as possible. Crawfordsville must not put her foot in it as many cities have done.
