The announcement that tho Citizens Railway Company has under consideration the tnatter of applying lor permission to use an over-head electric system, instead of its present mnlo power, has caused considerahle talk in tho city. The need of some improved method of street-car transit js generally conceded, patrons of tho longer lines operated by the Citizens' company, such as those leading to Woodruff Placo and Irviugton, being especially clamorous for some bettermeutof present facilities. There is some diversity of opinion as to various lands of motors, tho friends of the Dudley company insisting that tho statements of Superintendent Shaffer, as to the inefficiency of the storage-battery cars, are incorrect. 'We know," said one of the promoters of the Dudley enterprise-"that the storage battery system has been perfected to tho extent that cars are run without difficulty or a distance of eight miles without recharging and improvements are constantly being made which increase tho efficiency of this class of motors. As to recharging the car there is no more difficulty about it than there is in changing tho cartridces in a shotgun. The car at the expiration of a certain number of trips is run into the charging-house, the batteries stored under its seats are renewed by a man stationed .there for that purpose and in iess than live minutes the car ? on the t main track again, iready for service. As soon as wo get trough our present litigation we will demonstrate that there are other ways of running an electric railway in Indianapolis than by tho overhead system." 44 When do you hope to put your plan into execution!' Must at Mon as the Supreme Court gets a chance topass upon the points involved In the controversy. shall make an effort to have the case advanced on the calendar, and th proposed commission for the relief of the Supreme Court may help us to aa earlier decision if the Legislature sees fit to establish it. Meantime wo aru not losing any leep over the matter. We have a pood bond to fall bark upon if the court of last resort sustains the decision Riven us by tho general term of the fcnperior Court, and we look to that to reimburse us for all the damages wo have sustained, even to th payment of tho salaries of our officers for tho time we havo been kept idle."

The rythians Further Jlark Their Anniversary with a Parade and Grand Ball. Tho lraw wind prevailing yesterday afternoon did not prevent the Knights of Pythias parade being ono of tho finest local 6emi-military displays ever seen in Indianapolis. It was not by reason of numbers, but by precision of drill, and by military appearance that the column of the Knights drew the admiration of all who saw them as they moved east along the asphaltum pavement, from the State-house, where the line had been formed. After the Uniform Ranks came the various K. of P. lodges, not in any distinguishing uniform, but with banners designating tho different lodges represented. On the asphaltum pavement tho uniformed Knights, about 200 in number, gavo an exhibition drill that was deservedly applauded. Headed by the police and General Ross and staff, the column, forming at Masonic Hall, moved east along Washington street to Alabama, north on Alabama to Market, west on Market to Pennsylvania, where the procession disbanded. The ball at Tomlinsonllall in the evening was one of the greatest social successes, in a terpsichorean way, this city has ever seen. Certainly never before has so largo a number of persons stepped off to tho music of a grand march as appeared upon the tloor ot tho hall last night. There were fully i00 couples, 1,000 ladies and gentlemen, in this march, and, though the floor was crowded, the moving throng presented a brilliant spectacle, as tho long and graceful lines moved foward to the inspiring music. At times there were as many as sixteen abreast, one beautiful plateau after another, until the music changed to a quadrille, which, requiring moro space for movement, forced the retirement of at least half of thofD who had taken part in the march. Tho decorations were as on tho previous evening, except that upon the platform the arrangement of banners and plants was new and even more delightful to the eye than before. Tho reception committee consisted of Mayor Denny, Charles J. Many, W. L. Heiskell, Harry B. Smith. Charles L. Schmidt, Geonre W.Powell, Fred Ward, W. H. Fisher. Ph. Reichwein. L. T. Michener, II. G. Caldwell, A. F. Sidow, S. T. Verity, jr. The floor committee, headed by Gen. Jas. R. Ross, consisted bv C. C. Koerner, Brnco Carr, Will Taylor. D. B..Shideler. H. W. Schroer. E. G. Stott, Al Travis, J. E. Bodine, George Sharport, W. E. Pullen, Richard E. Smith, C. II. Osterman, H. Schweizer. Not only was tho dancing floor crowded, but the galleries were well tilled. Amoncr tho ladies present, and in such a galaxy of feminine loveliness and grace it is impossible to name but few. were Mrs. C. S. Denny, Mrs. L. T. Miehener, Mrs. C. J. Manv, Mrs. Fred Ward, Mrs. Charles L. Schmidt, Mrs. Georee W. Powell. Mrs. W. H. Fisher. Mrs. C. C. Koerner, Mrs. D. B. Shideler, Mrs. J. E. Bodine, Mrs. Al Travis, Mrs. Joseph Forbes, Mrs. J. R. Ross, Mrs. Isaac Thalman, Mrs. Ben Richardson, Mrs. John A. Ferguson, Miss Perle Forbes, Mrs. Lee Hanshaw, Mrs. Reber, Mrs M. Steinhauer, Mrs. F. Steiuhauer, Miss Ehrgott, Mrs. C. C. Pearson, Mrs. Harry B. Smith. Miss Smith. Mrs. G. W. Coulter, Mrs. Robert Rees, Mrs. Valentino Born, Mrs. C. Harmoning, Miss Biddinger, Mrs. II. P. Marshall, Mrs. Chris McGregor. Mrs. John Human, Miss Hattie Human, Mrs. Staples, Mrs. George Morrison and many otht'.s. Notwithstanding the great throng of people the arrangements were so admirable that everything moved with the most charming precision, and there was no dis

comfort. The uniforms of tho Knights of the Uniform Rank gave the affair a very military appearance, ana was an appropriate accompaniment to the elegant toilets of tho ladies. Besides the Knights, there were other uniformed dancers, a number of Light Infantrymen and members of other of the city companies taking part in the festivities. The occasion was in every respect enjoyable. Order of Chosen Friends. The executive committee of the Supreme Council of tho Order of Chosen Friends meets this morning, at the general offices of the society, in the Phoenix Block, and will probably bo in session during most of the present week. Tho committee consists of Supreme Councilor H. H. Morse, of New York city; Supremo Assistant Councilor Chas. II. Randall, of San Francisco; Supremo Vice-councilor E. E. Edwards, of Fremont. Mich.; Past Supreme Councilor Albert Alcon, of Sheridan; Supreme Trustee W. R. D. Gascoyne, Richmond, Va., and Supremo Recorder T. B. Lynn, of this city. Most of tho business to be transacted relates to the secret work of the order. Ono question to bo settled relates to tho location of the next Grand Council, for which several cities are competing. To-morrow evening at Geizendanner's nail. Alpha Council will render the work of the order with tho assistance of Supremo Councilor Morse as prelate, on which occasion Judge Lewis C. Walker, of this city, will be initiated. The Secret Leagroe. Tho Supremo Lodge of the Secrc t League will assemble at Frater Hall, in the Wrhen Block, this morning. Delegates from all subordinate lodges are expected to be in attendance, and the reports for the year will be submitted. It is expected that by holding an evening session the work of the Supremo Lodgo can be completed in ono day. STATE BOARD OP AGPJCULTURE. The Premium List for the Next Fair Will Re

main Without Any Material Changes. The State Board of Agriculture began yesterday to consider their premium list for the next fair. After some business that had been left incomplete from the Jast meeting was disposed of, and certain improvements on the grounds were ordered, the board approached the proposition to increase the premiums with a spirit that showed very littlo desiro to do anything more in that direction than had been done. It is claimed that the Indiana list is a model for fair associations, and that there is always a demand for it to help other fair managers alonpr in their work. The list, said one member, has been remodeled and revised so often that the majority of tho board are inclined to let alone what they think is good enough. It was maintained uy those favoring moderately high premiums that largo offers do not secure the best fairs. The bill before tho Lccislature that appropriates $50,000 in 10.000 yearly in stallments for the use of the board was also discussed.This is regarded somewhat as a sine qua non, and if it is passed the State fair organization will think that it is in clover. But a member of tho board said that it could not engage in extravagances, and that it must him the shore until the last dollar of indebtedness is paid. The session of the board will bo continued throughout tho day. County Assessor Quill Hart. County Assessor Thomas F. Quill slipped on the icy sidewalk in front of Mozart Hall and brokohis leg. The fracture is just above tho ankle, and is likely to prove a troublesomo injury. To Sporting Men We are closing out retail, at wholesale prices, our Warren snap shot.
