Refused to Dissolve The Injunction. Saturday the matter of the temporary restraining order issued by Judge OCfutt, which shuts off work on the city's sewer system until the case oan be heard Nov. 18th, was presented to the court.

A Grave Question.

Wednesday at 3 p. m. the twelve-year-old child of Mr. a ad Mrs. J. M. Havens died at thoir home, corner of Pennsylvania and Pierson streets. The attending physician pronounced the disease noncontegeous, but the Secretary of the Board of Health was not satisfied. The Secretary ordered the Coroner to make post mortem examination, but the re quest was refused by the parents of the child. The case was brought up before the City Council Wednesday night, but it was decided by that body that they had no right to act in the matter. The Secretary of the City Board of Health made an affidavit that the child died of diphtheria, and insisted that an examina tion be made. The request was still re fused, but the family finally decided that an autopsy be held, which was conducted by the attending physician, Dr. N. Howard and Dr Bogart. Not being en tirely satisfied, George S Wilson, Super lntendent of the city schools, thonght a more thorough examination should be made, and this morning Drs. Howard, Bogart and Black and Prof. G. S. Wilson took the upper portion of the larynx to Indianapolis to have a complete and thorough examination of it made. The reason Dr. Black and Prof. Wilson wants this examination made is this: The child only left school last Friday, and on Wednesday more than sixteen children, located in different parts of the city, called to see the cbild. If this child had the diphtheria the Board of Health and the Superintendent of the schools wished to know it, so that the exposed children could be kept from school and quarantined by the health officers.

Whil« tbe REPUBLICAN is taking no part in this question, yet it seems to us that the welfare of the public demands a thorough examination, and hopes the one made at Indianapolis today will be satisfactory.

Special to Republican. IT IS DIPHTHERIA. A telegram to the REPUBLICAN says that the examination of the larynx of the child of J. M. Havens, made by Dr. Potter at Indianapolis today indicates that the child died of diphtheria. Dr. Potter will make a bacterialogical examination tomorrow.

THE CHRYSANTHEMUM EXHIBIT.

It Promises to Be The Most Elaborate Floral Display Heretofore Held In Tomlinson Hall.

The coming Chrysanthemum Show which will be held at Tomlinson Hall on November 5 to the 9, inclusive, promises to be in all particulars the most elaborate and successful heretofore held in this city. The florists will vie with one another in exhibiting their product, in various unique designs. A special feature and one whieh will attract from its various colossal proportions, will be four mammoth vases, each of 100 blooms, compris ing red, white, pink and yellow, each to occupy a space of twentyfive square feet, orchids, rose, carnations, pot and cut chrysaathemuns, palms, ferns, ect., will form a rich floral bower by the abundance in which they will be shown.

The musical feature of the exhibit will be on a liberal scale. The Indianapolis Military Band will give a concert each evening and special music will be rendered on Wednesday afternoon by the D. H. Baldwin Company, on Thursday afternoon by Emil Wulschner & Son, and on Friday afternoon by the Smith & Nixon music house.

The hall will be artistically decorated and-made particularly attractive. The Central Traffic Association will make half-fare rates from all points within seventy-five miles of Indianapolis on Wednesday and Thursday, Nov. 6 and 7, which will be good returning until Nov. 8. This, with the fact that the Chrysanthemum Society will offer $1,400 in premiums, will assure a large attendance and a wonderful floral show, eclipsing by far all former exhibits held in the hal!. From the interest now manifested the attendance from the city alone would indicate that the show will be a financial succees.

Murveloua Results.

Erom a letter written by Rev. J. Gunderman, of Dimondale, Mich., we are permitted to make this extract. "I have no hesitation in recommending Dr. King's New discovery as the results were almost marvelous in the case of my wife. While I was pastor of tho Baptist church at River Junction she was brought down with pneamonia succeeding la grippe. Terrible paroxysms of coughing would ast hours with little interruption and it seemed as if she could not survive them. A friend recommended Dr. King's New Discovery it was quick in its work and h'ghly satisfactory in results." Trial bottles free at M. C. Quigley's drug store. Regular size 50c and $1.00. 14yl
