STREET LIGHT SYSTEM IS SPREADING RAPIDLY

Sixth Street Improvement Meets Wide Approval, and Many Are Falling in Line.

Demas Deming, president of the First National bank, "started something" when he interested the property owners on Sixth street between Walnut street and Mulberry street in the new electric lighting system which was Inaugurated Saturday night. He made the first move in what is likely to develop Into a general illumination of a gTeater portion of the down town business district. Already a plan to light the block between Fifth and Sixth on Wabash avenue is being developed, and other portions of the business section axe likely to follow suit. The plan includes the appointment of L. E Waterman as local agent of the Flour City Ornamental Iron Works Co., of Minneapolis, which furmsnea the pillars used In the Sixth street illumination. This was brought about through the efforts of the architects of the new Hotjl Demlng, and as a result local people are atble to secure these pillars at half their list cost. Tbis is made by Mr. Waterman at the cost price, and liis efforts in the matter are furnished without cost to the purchaser and as a public service on his part. The pillars alone cost $45, to wmch is added the cost of the globes, lamps, etc., making the total $55.70. The installation costs $41.20, making the total cost $96.90, which is what the Sixth street pillars cost the property owners. All others may secure their installation at this figure. The school trustees are figuring on placing the pillars in front of the public library, Manager Barhydt wants them for the Hippodrome, the Congregational church and Viquesney Printing Co., for Ohio street, in front of their respective places, while property owners on Seventh street between Wabash and Ohio are also figuring on them The pillars are to be instr.^ed around the Filbeclt hotel, and wnen this is done Mr. Deming will place them on the Cherry street side of the First Baptist church property. These will all be located when enough have signified their intentions of purchasing to make a car load—forty.

The property owners on Sixth street who ordered these pillars located and the number ordered by each is as follows: Moore and La gen Printing company, two Schultz and Elliott, Sixth and Mulberry, one Whitcomb and Allen, one Hunter Laundering and Dyeing company, four J. T. Beasley, one McKeen National bank, two A. 55. Foster Furniture and Carpet company, one Kleeman Dry Goods company, two G. W. J. Hoffman, New Central, one John Ludowlci, one S. F. Ball, two T. R. Woodburn 'Printing company, one Joseph Strong and company, one Terre Haute Savings bank, two Star Building company, one Star Publishing company, on§: P. J. Ryan's Sons company, two Deming Hotel compang, five De-ming Land company, Buntin Drug company, three Demas DemJng, Baptist church, and old Koopman building, four. A total of thirty-eight.

The cost of maintaining the lights is $62 a year $52 for the current and $12 for upkeep. The pillars are to be painted light green, the same shade as the terra cotta work of that color in the Hotel Deming.

Stanley Kord, 5 years old, son of Mr. and Mrs. Otto E. Kord, 107 -Kent avenue was bitten by one of the dogs of the Sells-Floto circus early Tuesday morning and severely injured. It seems that the dogs were taken from their portion of the car while the rest of the circus was being unloaded and no one was left in charge of the animals. Those who saw the dog spring at the boy and get his leg say that it Is likely he would have been killed had it not been for the interference of a policeman and the boy's cousin.

Through the efforts of Attorney G. O Dix, the Kord family was given $100 as settlement. Efr. E. B. McAllister attended the boy and found it necessary to take two stitches to close the wound, which is between the ankle and the knee.
