STABBING AFFRAY.

A Saturday Night Scrap In the Nibble Just Getting to Light—John Pninc Arrested on Tuesday.

There were rumors on the streets Monday of a stabbing art'ray having taken place on the Nibble Saturday night, but the police were unable until Tuesday morning to locate the parties. On Tuesday John Paine, an old sol ilier residing on east College street, was arrested and lodged in jail.charged with stabbing .James Fanning, a cigar maker, Saturday night at the home of Mrs. Mattie Kdwards, who lives on Franklin street just east of the beer depot. Paine states that he was at Mrs. Fdwards' Saturday night when Fanning and two or three other men came in with some beer. Mrs. Edwards objected to the beer and Paine states that he took her part, and says he was hopped on to by Fanning, who gave him several hard raps. Paine pulled out his pocket knife and slashed at Fanning, cutting his coat and finally stabbing him in the leftside, the wound being two or three inches deep. It bled copiously and Fanning lost about a gallon of blood, leaving him in a greatly weakened condition.' He was taken to his home on Market street by his companions and the matter kept as quiet as possible. Fanning is about 50 years old and came to this city two years ago from Hamilton, Canada. He is said by his fellow workmen to be a perfectly harmless old fellow, who never made any trouble., and they state that Pairie's attack on him was wholly without justification.

Mrs. Edwards is about fifty years old and her reputation is not of the best, the police state. There have been several complaints of late about rowdyism in this part of town and the girls that work at the match factory until clock at night, are many of them afraid to pass through this neighborhood unescorted, as they are often forced to do. The police are determined to break up this spirit of lawlessness and will arrest every disorderly character loafing around that part of town and put them through for a jail sentence.

A CAB1NET PUCE.

Gov. Mount's Friends Want Him Made Secretary of Agriculture.

Indianapolis Nv:s: Some of Governor Mount's friends said to day that they would like to lead a movement to secure his appointment as secretary of agriculture. The present state ollicers who are serving with Gov. Mount are agreed that President McKinley could not find a better man for that department if he intends to construct a new cabinet. Governor Mount is riot seeking the place, and has said to persons who have talked with him that he hoped to return to his farm after his term expires.

An Enjoyable Affair.

The members of Simonides Court, No. 1, T. B. H., had a most delightful session Monday night in their hall on Green street. The evening was given to a special entertainment given by Rev. N. C. McCay and Merritt Voris, showing the stereopticon views of their "European Trip," and it was a most, entertaining and instructive afl'air, showing almost one hundred views taken from the most interesting and historical places of the old continent.

All lhe views had been taken by Merritt Voris and properly developed for the Use of the stereopticon. and which entire apparatus has been mane by him. The lecture discripti'-e of each of the pictures was iMveu by Key. McCay in his most interesting anner and made each view seem realistic.

After the illn.-traiions as given on 'he canvas, Mrs. Cullom favored the audience with a most charming solo, and was accompanied on ihepiaroby Mr. Edward Brandkamp, and was greatly enjoyed by all. During this rendition the degree team of Simonides court prepared themselves for the regular Ml or drill" and under the direction of ("apt. Chas. Wray gave the many beautiful formations of the order.

C. Ross, as Arrius, made a most admirable leader of the team in all the different movements.

The last—-but not the least—was an elegant luncheon served by the ladies of the court, in a most charming manner, and at a late hour all departed for their homes well pleased with the pleasures of the evening.

A HIRED SNEAK.

He Attempts to Bribe the Employes of the Match Company to Leave. I

Tuesday a red-headed sneak employed by the Diamond Match Company (the trust) arrived in the city and began operations calculated to injure the Crawfordsville Match Company. The fellow went out in the neighborhood of the factory and applied for board at the house of a widow whom he pumped concerning the employes of the match company. He learned from her the names and residences of the chief workmen, and later in the day he sawfive of the skilled employes, including the composition mixer, who is one of the finest in the country. These men were all of them offered high pay to leave their work here and go to Grand Rapids, Mich. The emissary of the Diamond Match Company offered to put up $.)00 in each case as a guarantee of good faith, and held out the m-st glittering inducements. To the credit, of the men be it said, however, that they all turned the bribing sneak down hard. He had one of the men in his room at the Crawford house for over two hours and simply implored him to go with him lout his work was in vain. In the evening Mr. Woolbridge, the traveling agent of the local company, met the trust's hireling in the corridor of the hotel and denounced him in the harshest terms. -. The fellow simply turned pale a^d took to his room.

JUDICIAL REAPPORTIONMENT

An«J Other Reforms To Be Presented To

Legislature.

There may he a reapportionment by the next legislature of judicial districts. I The creation of new circuits has produced inequality in the distr cts and there is a great deal of talk among judges and attorneys in favor of a general equalization by a rearrangement of districts. Legislators recognize that the tasi: would be a delicate one, owing to the many conflicting interests.

The prospect is that for the first time during several legislatures the dillVrenees betwe'-n the slate and non-sla'.e school elements will not be a bone ol contention. The stale element is satlslird to allow the present condition to continue, and if there be an airingofi the old contention, the mm state ele-I I meat will take the initiative.

Superintendent of public instrue I tion .Tones will submit reeommenda-| tions for the betterment of the public I schools.

The state board of fax commissioners I met yesterday to consider important I measures of legislation. The board desires original jurisdiction in assess-! ing iruei urban eieciiic railway lines,! pipe lines and her inter-county con I structions, claimii lhat it is as important that the sta board lix their valuation as lhe valuation of railroad prop erty. Heretofore, it is claimed, lhe assessment of such property has varied wuliout cause in ITerent. counties.

The secretary of slate's office will I propose that foreign corporations doing business in the state be required to pay incorporation fees based on the amount of property th, have' in Indiana. Such a law, it is claimed, would swell the receipts of the secretary of state's! office iinmcn-ely I
