(MANY IMPORTANT MATTER8 TO COME BEFORE CITY COUNCIL.

MAY FIGHT THE PARK PROJECT

The Fairbanks Library and Street Car Co. Franchise Matters May Come U$) For Action.

The regular meeting of the city council will be held tomorrow evening and from indications there will be a big batch of business .besides the regular routine for the consideration of the body.

The proposition of Mr.' Crawford Fairbanks, to present the city with a public library, has been handed to Mayor Steeg |and this will be among the items that is to come up for action. Besides this is the third attempt to close the deal for a little spot of ground on East Main street, to be used as a park. It is now understood that this will have some opposition, and there is some anxiety as to ly?w the scheme will terminate. Then it fiS more than probable that the question of the franchise of the Torre Haute Electric company will be up as there appears a desire on both the part of the board of public works and the street car. company to hurry this matter through as soon as possible. Any agreement that is reached by the board of public works and the electric company must be approved by a vote of the council and if the matter is not settled tomorrow night a special session will be called as soon as an agreement has been reached. It is believed, however, that an agreement will be reached this evening or some time tomorrow. and. that the matter will be disposed of tomorrow night Those who claim to be in on the ground floor say that the board of works will make some concessions and that Ihe price to be •\agreed on will lie $75,000.

The matter of an industrial school, proposed to the council by Councilman Briggs, at "the last meeting may come up for some preliminary action, and there may be an eft'ort to have the park proposition shelved until the money is appropriated for the industrial school. Some of the eouncilmen argue that it would be a much more useful investment, and that more people would receive substantial good from it. There is some quiet work going on among the schools and school patrons and it is believed that several petitions will be presented to the body, urging that the industrial school appropriation precede the appropriation for the park, which is no more than half large enough for the purpose for which it is proposed to dedicate it.

MILWAUKEE GERMANS ARE VERY ANGRY

MILWAUKEE, Wis., Feb. 2—Milwaukee Germans are up in arms because oi the slams" which Baron Speck von Sternberg, the new German ambassador, is alleged to have directed at his countrymen. Such interviews as that given recently, in which he said that his countrymen were, as the Americans called 'them, plgheadeds are severely scored by every class of society in this, the Berlin of America. In fact so strong have the remonstrances become that the local German newspapers are taking up the fight for a better .recognition of what is due to the Germans of America iro'm the accredited representative of the kaiser. The interview at

New York, in which Von Sternberg said that in his opinion the kaiser would not have approved of the bombardment of the Maracaibo forts, is especially attacked.

Dr. Emil von Schleinitz, editor of Die Germania, is one of those who is strongest in his denunciation of the reports of the interviews given by the ambassador, fend says: "Any one making the statements that are attributed to Baron von Sternberg should be disqualified as an envoy and should not be able to remain in this country in that capacity. Baron von Sternberg knows that the Panther is not a cruiser and no officer of this country or any other would criticise the action of another officer in that manner when he knew nothing of the circumstances. Then again, Baron von Sterberg is quoted as having said that Von Holleber. probably would not return."

CQUNTESS_ IS DIVORCED

Troubles of de La Warrs Settled by a Legal Seperation in London Court Today.

HUSBAND "LEFT WORD"

AND THIS IS ABOUT ALL THAT HE DID LEAVE

JOHN HARRIS WAS VERY TIRED

Sent His Wife to a Social and Then Moved His Furniture Away. From His Home.

When Mrs. John S. Harris returned from the A. 0. U. W. social Friday night she found her home at No. 320 South Fifteenth street deserted and her husband gone. There was nothing left but the cistern and a note from her husband telling the wife th§t he was tired of her and would seek gome other woman. The house is still vacated and so far as is known Mr. and Mrs. Harris have dissolved partnership.

The woman knows no cause for the strange action of her husband, and says that they have ahvays lived luippily together, save the little "scraps"' which are likely to come up in any well regulated household. Her husband is a professed christian, and an active worker in all sorts of reform movements and this fact deepens the mystery. Mrs. Harris says that on Friday evening her husband was in the best of humor and urged her to attend a sociai given by the fraternal order of A. O. U. W. saying thaThe was not feeling well and would remain at home. She attended the social, and when she returned home was the first intimation she had that all was not well in the Harris household. She says that he left her a few articles of furniture, but took the best for himself, dividing the chattels to suit himself. She says that after searching about the house for a while, she found a note from her husband stating that after she had gone to the social he had procured an express wagon and moved out what articles he wanted and would leave the rest for her to do with as she liked. He said that he did not love her and that he thought it best for him to leave her and find a woman whom he could love as a man should love his wife. There was no other explanation, and the residents in the vicinity.

AVIIO

say that Mrs. Harris was a good woman, and one who attended to her own affairs are indignant at Harris' cruel desertion of her. Mr. Harris has been a prominent worker in missionaiy affairs and was the bell-weather, in the "soul-saving society" whicli was organized here independent of the churches some months ago. The society died before it had accomplished any great amount of work. Mrs. Harris says that she will make no effort to induce her husband to return, but wTll iet him do as he likes.

CURIOSITY OF BOYHOOD.

Why Does an Iron Lamp-poBt Attract the Tongue in Cold Weather? "Why is it that an iron lamppost or an iron gate or fence, or any old thing made of iron and exposed to the open air has such a magnetic attraction for the tongues of young ones during the cold weather," inquired an inquisitive-eyed man. "It's because, I suppose, theyS've been told never to stick their tongues against weather-exposed iron in the cold weather, and they want to find out why not. Last night my six-year-old shaver glued his tongue to a lamp post fci front of my house. When he found that he couldn't get it loose he began to bleat, and I raced out to see what was the matter with him. When I was four or five feet of him he gave a mighty tug and contrived to pull his tongue loos© without leaving much more than a square inch of the skin of his tongue to ornament the post. "Now, when I was at exactly the same age as that kid of mine I made precisely the same experiment. I stuck my tongue against an iron gate when the weather was below zero—this was up in Detroit —because I had been told that that was one of the stunts I was supposed to flag if I had any regard for the integrity of niv tongue-cuticle. I wanted to find out what right an iron gate had to keep a clutch on my tongue against my will in any old kind of weather. The gate won out, of course, and easy. My mother, when I began to blubber as best I could with the leading pieces of my blubbering mechanism out of commission, het' a teakettleful of hot water on the kitchen stove and after coddling with the gate for about ten minutes with the hot water it warmed up sufficiently to execute a release of my tongue. "And here, about thirty years after that experience of by own kidhood, this snoozer of mine conies along and gets himself messed up in almost the same way, just to satisfy the grouch and the grievance which extreme youth manifests toward anything which it does not understand. But, as a matter of fact, we never outgrow that sort of curiosity, do we? —else, why is it that about nine-tenths of us grownups, when we see a sign witTi the ,'paint' warning, furtively touch the freshly painted article with our finger tips to find out whether it is really and truly and sure enough fresh paint?"

Witt PLAN BIG FAIR

Fair Will Combine All the Features of the Old Time Attractions Besides Races.

The Terre Haute Trotting association is planning to give one of the biggest fairs ever held in Vigo county some time next fall, probably the first week in September. Such is the announcement of Charles R, Duffin, secretary of the Trotting association.

The association also will give a race meeting and while out of the Grand Circuit the meet promises to be a very good one. Fast horses will appear and the purses will be large.

Concerning the fair little definite has been decided. It will take place at the fair grounds and will combine the best features of the old time county fair and the essentials to the later day fair. There will be plenty of amusement of the best kind. Everyone will haye the chance of a lifetime to enjoy himself or herself.

The county fair given last fall was an immense success and it is this that has had much to do with the Trotting association deciding to give another week of pure enjoyment. A meeting of the association directors may be held soon to discuss plans for the exhibit.

Talk of another street fair or of a county fair in the spring has almost died down and there is little probability of either being attempted.

MAPS OF AMERICA

Drawings of the Western Continent Made in the Last Century. An entertainment of much interest from the standpoint of the antiquarian was given recently at the Marquette school, under the direction of Miss Fannie M. Bacon, the principal, the main feature of which %\s the exhibition of ten old maps of portions of the American continent. They are the property of Mr. Sidney Clemenson of Boston, who secured them whide traveling in Australia from a French consul, and were loaned to Mis3 Bacon.

Eight of them were made by Pownall, who came to America in 1753 as royal governor of the colonies of Massachusetts, New Jersey and South Carolina in succession. He returned to England in 1701 and obtained a seat in parliament. The last part of his life was devoted to antiquarian studies. These maps were published in Lon in 1794.

The other two maps were published in Paris in 1806. One of the English maps gives the thirteen original states one of the French maps shows seventeen stars and seventen states. None of the English maps shows Washington or St. Louis The French map does. There is no Chicago on either of the maps. Cahokia and Kaskaskia are on all of the maps. One of the old maps gives the United States and bordering Spanish possession, gives the four old paths across the country— "upper," "middle," "low^r" and old grading path. One shows an old wagon road, where ifi railroad now 'goes through— Harpehr's Ferry. The'endless mountains in Pennsylvania are shown, and the mountains in the southwestern part of the old "United States," in which there ia a "gap for horses." Oie map sfegws that California is not an "island" The to mak^old California an isUnd until finally traveling to the head of the gulf it was discovered that California could be "reached by land."
