Mayor Carr, the members of the city council and the city attorney will go to Kentland this evening to investigate the system of boulevard and street lighting in use there and the franchise and contract under which, it is operated. * /'. Mrs. W. E. Biederwolk left today to join her husband at Waynesboro, Pa., where he is engaged in a large revival meeting. After the close of this meeting—in about two weeks—they will go to New York and thence to Washington, D. C. Ben Dickson, of the Monon Stone Co., who was nominated recently by Congressman Peterson as postmaster at Monon, has declined the appointment. His business cares and investments are too many and too profitable to warrant his sacrificing them for the salary of the postoffice. Rev. Kindig was in Rossville last night and preached for the Methodist brethren of that town. The ehurch is just commencing a series of evangelistical meetings and for the first week ministers from surrounding towns and cities have been invited in to conduct the services. Mr. Kindig reports a large, audience last evening and much interest. -• -'".7 ■ -V '• Of the eight boys up before Judge •Marvin in the juvenile court yesterday, six were released this morning.
