STERLING R. HOLT, Chairman. S. L. WALLACE,Secretary,

Circus People at War. An old-fashioned circus war has broken out at Kokomo, the fight beiug between Ringling Brothers on the one side and the Barnum & Bailey, Sells Bros., and "Buffalo Bill" combination on the other. Representatives of both factions were there this week.

Several weeks ago the Bailey people leased all the bill boards from the opera house manager, covering the period wanted by the Ringlings, A« a result carpenters were at work all over the city Tuesday afternoon, erecting additional bill boards and billed the show for May 14. The Bailey combination announce that they will run the "Buffalo Bill" aggregation in there ahead of the Ringling show. The latter is the only large show outside of the Bailey combine on the road this season and an effort is being made to crush it out by sending one of the combine shows ahead of it. This is the Ringling Bros, first stand of the year, and the plan is to pursue them all thro"gh the season.

Present Prom McKccu. Hon. W. R. McKeen, who two years ago contributed $500 to the DePauw Athletic fund for park purposes, has sent the association an additional check for §300, This sum will be used to build a grandstand in the already well equipped park, which is named after the Terre Haute patron. Saturday when Mr. McKeen was in Greencastle attending the Republican county convention, the boys gave him a "cheering" reception that rather took him by surprise and tended to embarrass him. The boys have a college yell in which it is said that he is to be the next Senator from this state. Speaking of the matter afterward, Mr. McKeen said: "The gift was not much, but boys at school get pretty hard up. I know. I was here at Old Asbury for a while myself, and I kcow that a little money for a college boy don't come amiss."

N. Barker sheriff, J. E. Gibson treasurer, John W. Custer assessor, Samuel H. Lane surveyor,Oliver Clark commissioners, Thomas M.Shaw and Martin L. Martindale. The ticket is considered a fair one, yet considerable disappointment is manifested. Resolutions indorsing McKinley for president, Mount for governor, and Stephenson for appellate judge were adopted, but with some dissenting voiceB. The Boone county delegation is divided on tho question of a candidate for governor. Mount will have the lead, but Doxey and Griffin also have fri nds on the delegation.

Last Friday night a well-known clerk was out walking with a young woman, and on Water street, between College and Jefferson streets, they chanced to meet his wife, who grabbed tho girl and started in to do her up by slapping her face and pulling her i-urly hair, Tho husband parted her and tho girl ran away. Ho then turned on his wife and gave her a good shaking. They created quite a sensation by their loud talking and it was some time before he could square matters and return homo with her. A divorce suit will probably follow.
