The committee will not move any further until an endorsement is had by their district and national conference that will meet during the latter part of spring and middle of summer, as they desire the support of the entire denomination. The town board ought to repair and put the buildings and grounds under the care of a competent janitor at once, so that in case this party should fail some other party might be found who would run a school on equally as good terms. As we cannot afford to lose our prestage as an educational center, gained at so much cost of labor and money. In the mean time a high school course ought to be put 'into our public school for the pupils of the school district, to be taught by the corps of teachers without additional expense.

Last Saturday night Bennett filled up on an exceedingly bad brand of the Kentucky ardent and went home to whipjhis wife|just for past time. Now. Mrs. Bill prides herself on being somewhat of a scrapper herself, and when Bill opened the ball, he found a full set in his partner. The noise incidental to tho gay right and left and four hands around of the Bennetts startled tho gentle Annie.and shaking her 300 pounds of averdupois and accompanied by her coterie of blonde troubadors, soon kicked herself into the ball room. The sight of the angelic Annie so incensed Mrs. 13. that she grabbed a festive butcher knife and proceeded to relievo Annie of some of her surplus flesh, A slice from the forehead, another from the cheek, apiece of tho right ear. and then Annie fainted dead away. A blow from a poker in the hands of one of the girls knocked the merry carver sprawling upon the floor and caused a cessation in hostilities. About this time the officers arrived and the Bennetts wero hustled off to jail. Before the Mayor Monday morning each of the Bennetts were fined 811.35 which they are boarding out with Sheriff Bible, while Mrs. Skaggs was released and given the freedom of flu.' city for 305 days.

BROUGHT HER TO TIME.

SANTIAGO, Jan. SC.—The Chilian government has sent a reply to the ultimatum of the United States. The reply is in effect as follows:

Chili agrees to- withdraw the offensive note sent by Senor Matta to all the Chilian ministers abroad and acknowledges that its issuance was due to an error of judgment.

Chili also withdraws its request for the withdrawal of United States Minister Egan. In addition to this the Chilian government in its answer proposes that the affair of the attack on tho Baltimore's sailors in Valparaiso be .submitted to the arbitration of some neutral nation.

If this proposition 5B not acceptable to the United States government the Chilian government suggests that the matter be submitted to the decision of the supreme court of the United States.

The Message Referred.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.—The reading of the president's message on the Chilian affair and the correspondence accompanying it occupied fifty-nine minutes in each branch of congress Monday and was referred to the foreign affairs committee of cach body. The committers are as follows:

Will Support the President.

In all probability a prompt report will be had from both committees, and if precedent in such oases bo followed an effort will be made to make both reports the same, so that there may bo no parliamentary quibble on a question involving the national dignity. The chances aro that both committees will report some resolution upholding the course pursued by the administration. ltefugees at Callao.

hand drew a razor and cut her throat.' rrom ear to ear, severing the jugular vein and windpipe. With a second stroke she laid open her victim's cheek and then left her and turned on her sister, Miss Josephine Ward, making an ugly gash in her throat. She then turned, walked to her buggy and drove to her home, where she was arrested and taken to jail. The reason she gives is that Frederelta had refused to visit or recognize her on the grounds that she flirted. A rumor is current that Miss Mitchell was enraged because Miss Ward had won her sweetheart away from her. Both are daughters of old and wealthy families, who move in the highest society. Tho Wards now live in Golddust Park, and the young women were on thoir way to the landing to take a boat home. At tho inquest tho jury returned a verdict charging Miss Mitchell with the killing and that it was premeditated.

Pang Yun is a native of Pekln, educated in this country and embraces the customs of the land of his adoption. The cue is gone and in its place the short-cropped hair is combed down in tho latest style. In appearance he would be taken for an American. The couple returned to Indianapolis at 8 p.m. The couple's courtship was not a smooth one, Miss Ada's parents objecting most strenuously to the union. The simplest way out of it was by an elopement, and the couple took the train from Indianapolis Saturday night lswt and arrived in Chicago Sunday.
