ITEMS Of IHTJ5KEST.
Gome of the Thines For Which You Must Pay at tlie World's Pair. On May 1 the groat World's Fair begins at Chicago and we all intend to go in spite of our poverty and the Monon station. It is going to cost to go bnt the price of good many things is fixed by a law as unalterable as that of the Medea and Persians.
Hotel rates are going to be high. The cheapest rooms will be let for $2 per day, or SI each to two persons occupying the same apartment. Rates will iscend from this figure to $15 and 825 per day, depending upon the hotel and ts character. Few hostelries will receive guests on the American plan, most of them preferring to tap the visitor separately for his room and his meals.
Admittance to the fair grounds will be 50 cents. No "checks'' will be issued allowing people to leave the grounds and re-enter without paying again.
The gates will be opened from 8 a. m. to 10 p. rn and tho 50 cent admission icket will be good for this period of time. 1'ersoDB who so desire may bring their o«-u lunches into the grounds, but jjsper and refuse cannot be scattered about. Even peanut shells are tabooed, nnd all peanuts sold on the grounds will be ^without shells. Menls soid at the exposition wiil be on the restaurant order, and will coat from 50 cents to $1 Rpiece. One can figure at 75 cents as the pries of
1
satisfactory meal.
The moving sidewalk will convey visitors around the grounds at 10 centR per ride, be it long or short.
Many of the minor exhibits and novelties will be charged for extra as, for instance, the Eskimo villages, at which a peep may be had for 10 cents. There will be money-making contrivances within the grounds, but a visitor can see most of the exhibits of interest without. price, if he feels so disposed.
The gondolas upon the waters of the lake will carry passengers at 10 cents a passenger.
Clriirs for wheeling about sick, infirm and elderly people can be hired by the hour at a price not stated.
There will be checkrooms in the various buildings, where baskets, parcels.
jtc.,
can be safely left for 10 cente ipiece. The street cars, both cable and electric, will charge 5 cents cash fare from ,he city to the grounds.
The elevated road, if completed in time, will also ask 5 cents. The Illinois Central Railroad, from the city to the grounds, now charges 23 cents one way, or 25 cents for the round trip. It is alleged that the railroad proposes to reduce its rate to 10 cents each way.
The authorities of Chicago compel the hack and cab men to post up in their vehicles tariff rates fixed by ordinance, but many of the drivers evade the law by scratching ont the tariff while allowing the cards to remain in position.
Under the municipal regulations in Chicago the driver of a one-horse cab is allowed to charge 25 cents per passenger for distances not exceeding one mile, and 25 cents additional for each added mile or fraction thereof. The passenger is allowed to carry one trunk and 25 pounds of hand baggage free. When cabs are hired by a party by the hour the legal toll is 75 cents for the first 60 minutes, and 20 cents for e«ch additional 15 uiinutes.
For two horse carriages the legal toll is 81 for one or two passengers for one mile, or two miles for 82. If the driver attempts to exact more fare, call the nearest policeman. He must not charge for your trunk on his carriage, nor a 25 pound valise.
Chicago has an admirable omnibus system, and a uniform charge of 50 cents is made for transferring passengers from the depots to the hotels.
Accident to Mrs. Hiner.
Mrs. Hiner, matron of the Orphans Home, met with a very painful accident Thursday evening. She and her son-in law, Frank Stout, were in a buggy near the Yanddia railroad on Market street. A freight train came up and frightened the horee which backed down into a deep gully. The night was dark and Dr, Hatchings who was only a few rods be hind them could not imagine where they had disappeared to until the train had passed and he heard cries for help Mrs Hiner had fallen on her head, sprained her neck, while her face was mashed to a jelly.
It Was Only $8.
It was a judgment for $8 and not 880 which Mrs. Col. Tribby got against Sheriff Bible Thursday. The plaintiff and defendant both deny having called each other rough names. They are probably right. The information came from the Justice's court. The whole case was a great big farce from begin uing to end.

GOOD PEOPLE.
They Oome to Orawfordsville Leaving a Scaly Record at Oovington. Spence's paper of Covington has the following to say ooncerning a worthy coupl# who recently settled in this city:
About three months ago we published in this paper the elopement of Lindsey Ellis with the wife of Henry Boldt, a miller of this place, Ellis leaving a wife and two children. The eloping parties went west over the Big Four, landing iu Bloomir gton, 111.,- where Ellis sought and obtained employment on the electric street cars, and renting housa and going to housekeeping with Mrs. Boldt. After the parties left here, Mr. Boldt instituted divorce proceedings in the circuit court, which were granted about two weeks ago, also giving him the custody of the children. Scarceh has the ink dried on the announcement of the divorce proceedings before we publish the marriage of the divorced parties, Boldt and wife. On last Saturday afternoon our citizens were surprised to meet Ellis again on our streets, and to those whom he met and conversed with he stated that he had left the Boldt woman and had returned to live withliis wife, and expected to make Covington his home if the citizens did not drive him away, and in the futnre would lead different life, and would devote himself to secure the comfort of his wife and little children. He appears very peni tent and says he never would have left with Mrs. Boldt had not Mr. Boldt forced him to leave with her, and fnrnshing her $200 to leave with. He also says that Mr. Boldt called on his wife while in Blooraington, before and after the divorce, and seemed to show the same love and affection as he did while they lived together in Covington,- and he has not the least doubt that during his visits he arranged to meet her in Indianapolis, where, report Bnye, they were married on last Saturday. Mr. Boldt, while not having disposed of his interest in the mill at this place, has offered his residence property for sale, and has gone to Crawfordsville to engage in the beer business, having been appointed general agent for that city. The marriage of Boldt to his former wife was a genuine surprise to our citizens, .ill of whom thought such a thing impossible after her cruel treatment of him, et the ways of mac as well us Providence are mysterious and past finding out. This woman must have a supernatural influence over him, and works him as though he were but putty in hor hands, or that" he is so deeply in love with her that no sin she can commit is so black, but that he can condone, f6rgive and forget it. Ellis and wife have settled their troubles and will live to gether as formerly, BO soon as they can find a vacant residence.
They Favor theT Bail.
City engineer, Waugh, states that the junketing committee will have its report ready for the Council at the iegular meeting next Monday evening. The cities of Logansport, Lafayette and Kankakee were all visited and all found to have excellent systems of electric street railway. These were closely investigated and found to be essentially the same in point of excellence. At Lo gansport the Edison system is used and in the other places the T. and H. and the Westinghouse, but the workings ere all satisfactory and practically the 6ame. What the committee examined into most closely was the rail question. Objections had been urged strongly against the rail, which both corporations de sired to use and arguments were made favoring the phlange or Hat rail. It hsd been urged that the rail would spoil the streets for driving purposes but the companies claimed that when paved up to that the rails were more easy to cross and drive over than the phlange,
Besides it was not to be doubted bnt that the was much the better for tLe purpose for which they were intended junketing committee made a close and searching investigation into this subject and will report in favor of the rail. They found it better Buited to the purpose in all respects than the phlange on both paved and unpavod streets.
They Want a Gymnasium.
The boys at the pnblio schools want a gymnasium fitted up for their benefit. They claim that the girls have a piano upon which they play while the boys have to stand by with their thumbs in their mouths. Therefore they warn gymnasiun and wouldn't object to physical instructor. Ed Corey is out of a job just at present and for a consideration might be induced to instruct the young idea in the manly art of self defense. If Edward comes too high we might have recourse in Kid HendeiBon who could also instruct in geology.
The Orchestra Enlarged.
The Crawfordsville orchestra will be enlarged from six to ten pieces. The new members will be John Bell, French horn Ivy Carr, French horn Lee Smith, viola, and Charley Lacey, flute. A higher class of music will also be played and we will have an organization of which the city may well be proud.
Called Meeting.
There will be a general meeting*of the citizens of Crawfordsville held in the basement of the Baptist church on Monday, March 20, at 7:30 p. m. The object is to hear and consider the report of the committee on organization of ohftrity. All charitably inclined men and women are expected to be present.

A GRASP BUGOEBS.
The Entertainment of St. Oliarles Academy Proves to be a Most Pleasant One. Music Hall was filled la6t iiight to witness the annual exhibition of the pupils of St. Charles Academy. It wag St. Patrick's evening and the bright green ribbons flutlered all over the audience, which was rendered warm nnd appreciative by a sense of the great national holiday of I'eland. The initial performance on the programme was tlio presentation of the United States silk flag to the Knights of St. John by tho :uitf' Auxiliary Bociety of Gruwfordsville and this was introduced by a silent drill by the Kuiglits whose grace and proficiency in tho difficult military movements excited general admiration and praise. The presentation address was made by Hon. T. E. Howard. Judge of the Supreme Court of Indiana and IVHS a most excellent 0110. Judge Howard spoke as follows:
GI:M'I,I:MF.N, KNIGHTS OF ST JOHN:—it is a pleasure. as it is an honor, to lio jailed uiioii'in the name of your pastor and of the Ladies' Auxiliary Society, to prosciit the American lhig.to a society banded togethor as jou are, in tho causo ot Ucd and your country.
Nor could auy day bo more appropriate for .these patnotio services, St. Patrick's day almost as much an American as it is an Irish holiday. One third ol the American people are proud of tho royal Irish blood that courses through their veins, and uo ouo of the mother races of Europe has more strongly impressed itself upon the American ctiarac.cr tuaii has this bright, bold, libcrly-loving Irish race, a nation of warriors, scholars, poets and orators, bright minded as the ancient Greeks, and deeply religious as the chosen people of God.
And it is fitting-, too, that you,as a Catholic Knightly Society, shouid receive iu tuis public manner the sacred banner of your country.
None arc more intensely American than the Catholic people, and with none is our national history more intimately associated. Four hundred years ago a Catholic genius, perhaps the greatest man that ever lived upon ihis earth, and under the auspices of a great Catholic nation, discovered this laud of ours, and since that day in the discovering, colonization, civilizing aud Chfistianizmg of the laud, aud in forming lis government aud iu defending it when formed. Catholics have always been present. The Catholic col,ony of Maryland ivas the first to proclaim religious liberty iu the new world. On every battlefield ''1 the revolution, from Lexington to Yorktowu. in every engagement in the second war of Independence, from Lundy's Lane to New Orleans, in every encounter iu Mexico, from Henna Vista to tlie capture, of the city of the Montazunius, on every Union field of giory, from Furl Sumter to Appomattox, Catholic blood has been freely and gladly shed in defer'-" of those stars aud stripes, which you receive io-night. You aie Catholic Knights and your country's history is full of the heroic deeds of brother Knights, as chivalric a* ever contended for the Con qucs: of Jerusalem. Oi.o 1 will name to ,vou as a pattern nnd a guide in defen-e of this (lag of your country. When Colonel M'. ll'gan was struck down, mortally wounded, on tho Virginia battlefield, and his co:i riul(*s, with tears streaming down their m-ony.ou l:uo-,U'n!uriy t,uok up Ihe dying hem in tlx-tf arms, suddenly he opened Ills eyes and and in his weakened voice cried ojt, "No, no, bojs. lav me down and save Ihe Hag." There is not a braver uud more pntriouc speeeh th:m Ltiat, thai ever fell I'roni- the Hps ol' an Amen can. Il.e-ding. i! ing, foigeilul ot self, I.ut nnly IhoOKhtltii «f his eountry and of her Hag. he routed himself l'ruin upproauhlng death anil olfered even hi* 1 lug body.

When you look upon this glorious flag of stars aud stripes, stars bright as those in heaven's blue to gi.nrd our 111 erty, snipes only to lush the enemies ol lreedoni. When you hear it in honor at the head of 3 our column, think how many a hero's 11 if
Kid 1ms sunk into those
or phi colors, how many a patriot has died to save it front dishonor. It is the Hug of y.tur country. Knights of St. John, that 1 present to you iu the nume of the sisters, wives, mothers aud daughters of your own homes iliul tiresides: in the name of civil and religious liberty which It represents. Tbt American people are the children of the picked '•aces of Europe, (jod has gathered us here In this last new laud which he has reserved for the greutesi of nulions. This Is tho banner which represents this favored people of God Guard it and care for it as the emblem of .ill that is best and purest iu Ihe hope ol' humanity aud Christian freedom. Ilefeud it, if uecd lie, as Mulligau did, with Ihe lastdrooof our hi-arffe blood, anil He will bless you, and love you as he loved St. John whose knights you are.
Tho pupils of the academy then began the entertainment proper. Tnis wns introduced with the pretty chorus "Weicoma Here" by the large and well trained vocal clnss, unci was followed with an admirable salutntory by Mise J. Kelly. Misses R. Kelley nnd G. Lawrence fol lowed in the vocal duet "Beautiful Moonlight," and displayed unusual talent and aptness. Prof. Eddie Brandk«mp and Prof. Harry Iiamebrook then rendered a choice selection on the piano and violin which was warmly encored The pretty little operetta, "A World's Affair," was then put on by the pupils whose efforts, training and Dative ability cannot bo too highly commended. The sisters of the academy had evidently taken the utmost mains in their work as all acquitted themselves with a grace aud credit far beyond their years and experience. Throughout a thoroughness and skill -was displayed which was truly admirable and reflected the greatest credit on both teacher and pupil The opeietta is quaint little conceit which represents a conference of the different nations regarding their atten dance at the World's Fairand introduces a humor at once rich and snprising. It presents many of the leughable sides of not only American national character bnt also that of other nations and pokes nie sly fun at mushroom Chicago and the New York 400. The following was the cast of characters last evening:

All those taking part did most excellently and the cos tumes presented were certainly very rich and attractive, as well as historical ly correct and exact. Tho speeches and eongs were nil in excellent taste nnd
faultlessly performed. The chorus "The Day We Left Ireland," by MiBses F. Schultz, M. Lawrence, J. Kelley, M. Halpin, R. Kelley, A. Schultz, G. Lawrence, M.

"The "Ocean Spray" chorus by the vocal cla6B was well executed. The entertainment closed with an instrumental duet by Misses M. Hanna and B. Yansandt, which wits deserving of much praise.
