TOWNSHIP SCHOOL HOUSE LAW UPHELD

That Is, Jury Decides That Advisory Board Must Appropriate Money for Building.

A ease was tried at Delphi the past week which will be of interest all over Indiana, especially tn townships where the proposition of erecting high school buildings arose, was decided Friday in favor of the building of school houses. The trustee of Madison township, Carroll county,' asked the council to appropriate money for a building. The council refused and the suit was to mandate the council to make the appropriation. It was tried before a jury, which deliberated for 18 hours before arriving at a decision, which was in favor of the trustee. It is probable that the advisory board will appeal.
