If all who are born to great wealth would follow the example of Miss Helen Gould, daughter of the late Jay Gould. In the use they make of it. there would be no occasion for the alurs often cast upon the Inheritors of riches. Miss Gould devotes none of her time to the frivolities of fashionable society, and never figures In the splurgy social events of the season. Her name is seldom seen in print except In connection with some of the many charitable enterprises in which she Is Interested and to which she gives continually of her time and most ilberally of her means. One day recently Miss Gould entertained at her country home at I.yndhurst onr hundred selfsupporting young women from New York and Brooklyn. She herself received the fuests and escorted them about the grounds. aincheon was served on the lawn overlooking the Hudson. When the party returned In the evening each of the young women carried an orchid from Miss Gould’s conservatories. Earlier on the same day she entertained about fifty children of the workmen employed at Lyndhurst. The most beautiful of all the charities In which Miss Gould is interested Is the institution known as Woody Crest, a home where crippled and invalid children, gathered In from city tenements, are given skillful nursing and tender care. This home is near Lyndhurst. Is entirely maintained by Miss Gould, and conducted under her personal direction. These and many other good deeds are performed quietly and unostentatiously, and it is only because of the übiquitous reporter that the world comes to know any of them. Miss Gould is much averse to publicity for herself and for her work, and shuns it as far as possible. Since the death of her parents she has had the good fortune to have as her most intimate friend and confidential udvlser Mrs. Russell Sage, wife of the eminent financier. The relations existing between the two have been like those of a mother and daughter, and it cannot he doubted that Miss Gould has greatly profited by the motherly counsel of the gracious and gentle woman who has stood close by her all these years. Caba at the Parting of the Ways. M. W. Hazeltine in North American Review. There fix one way, and one way only. In which the Cubans can acquire new and forever. perfect freedom of access to American markets for the natural products, and that la by the admission of their island to the Union. There would be no end to the development of Cuba’s natural resources under such stimulating conditions. Nature has done more for her than it has done for Java, which Is of almost exactly the same site; yet, in the short space of a century, the population of the latter island has increased from two to more than twenty millions. Cuba is standing, in this crisis, at the parting of the ways. If she chooses, a destiny move splendid than Java’s may be hers, for she may unite the dignity and freedom of American citizenship with a more than a Javanese prosperity. If, on the other hand, the Cubans shall cling to the barren honor of complete political independence. they will find that it means for them commercial backwardness and economic isolation: that American capital, emigration and enterprise will go elsewhere, and that, soon or U:e. American tariffs will foster agricultural industries, not of selfcentered and self-dependent Cuba, but of our own tropical domains. A Nluety-Elght-Cent Clock. Judgs. ’’Ah," said little Mrs. Newlywed, dreamily. “my husband Is as steady as a clock.” She gave a little half-sigh as she said it, and looked fixedly at that article—the clock, not her husband. Then she tapped it, rapped it, shook it, stood it on its head, blew into the keyhole, and tried to persuade it to do its duty in other feminine way*. It was one of those 98-cent alabaster clocks, and she had lust bought it A dainty creation, with glided hands, and forget-me-nots upon the face. The dealer had guaranteed it to run for a lifetime, and it had run down and utterly collapsed in just five minutes and thirty-seven seconds. “My husband is as steady as a clock,’’ she said dreamily.

The Indianapolis team left for Minneapolis yesterday at 11:35 and will open the western trip there this afternoon. Three games with the Millers will be followed by three with St. Paul, after which the champions will go to St. Joseph and Kansas City. It will be a hard fight from now on between Indianapolis and Kansas City, with chances about even. Frank Motz may not be able to play for several days, and if that proves to be the case the team will be greatly weakened, as his presence at first steadies the entire infield. It is Allen’s intention to use only Foreman, Phillips and Scott in the box on this trip. Hawley will not go in unless it is absolutely necessary. With the exception of Motz the players are in good condition. They are all anxious to win the pennant and will work hard to beat the Blues out. The Agricultural Board’* Answer. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: I notice the following query in this morning's Journal: “Some day the Board of Public Works will be asked why they paid S3OO an acre for

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1898.

land for park purposes, which was offered to the Board of Agriculture a few years ago for S2OO an acre, and what will the board answer?” The Board of Agriculture could answer: “Why did we pay $325 per acre for the land we now occupy, if we could have purchased the park land mentioned for s2f" an acre, and said park land being two miles nearer the center of the city and in fully as good location?” JOHN M. TODD. Indianapolis, Sept. 7. STORM STOPPED THE RACES. Only One Event Finished at Charter Oak Yesterday. HARTFORD, Conn., Sept. 7.—The thunderstorm broke up the racing at Chester Oak Park this afternoon, only one race being finished, the 2:12 pace, which was won by Winfield.

After our regiment had marched seven miles toward Santiago we were ordered to go into camp on the crest of the high hill which overlooks the valley in front of San Juan. We had scercely pitched our little shelter-tents when a fierce rain-storm earn® up. It poured down in torrents. 1 naturally supposed that the soldiers would be disgusted that this should happen just after their long, tiresome march, but when the storm was at its highest l heard shouts of joy outside, and I ventured to look from under the sheltering canvas to see what the commotion w r as about, and there stood about half the regiment, stark naked, taking what they called a bath, and the harder it rained the more pleased they seemed. Major Smith looked out and could not resist the temptation, and in a few' minutes he. too. was enjoying a nice, cool bath. The regulars know how to live, and they make the most of everything; even a rain-storm does not go to waste. Not onlv in one wav did they make use of it, for many spread their rubber blankets and caught sufficient pure rain-water to fill tneir canteens, and in this way provided themselves with excellent drinking-water.. Leprosy 1* Not Hereditary. B. Foster, M. D., in North American Review. That leprosy is a contagious disease is unanimously admitted by the best authorities; but the exact manner of Us contagion is certainly difficult to understand. There are many examples of persons living for years in the most intimate family relations with lepers and remaining uninfected. And often but one member of the family will acquire the disease. On the other hand, the history of the disease in different Darts of the world shows that it never originates spontaneously, but that its origin can always be traced to human importation. There are also a very large number of recorded cases where leprosy has resulted from a single contact of an abraded surface with some lesion or secretion of an infected individual. These apparently contradictory facts must be explained on the theory that some peculiar, inherent predisposition, which exists in a limited number of individuals, is necessary for the development of this strange disease. There is no reason to believe that leprosy is an hereditary disease.

ESTIMATES IN COUNCIL —♦ INTRODUCED LAST NIGHT AND REFERRED TO FINANCES COMMITTEE. • Councilman Little Introduce* Another Ordinance for Fire and Police Force*—Brewery Measure Passed. • ♦ An ordinance containing the estimates of the city officials of the expenses of the administration for next year was introduced at the meeting of the Council last night. It was referred to the committee on finance. Accompanying the ordinance was a message from Mayor Taggart, as follows: “I beg to submit to you herewith the estimated expenditures of the various departments of the city government for the year 1899. These estimates are transmitted to you after having received the careful attention of the heads of the various departments. The aggregate of the estimates, as shown by the controller, and submitted herewith, shows the total appropriations asked for to be one million one hundred fourteen thousand five hundred ninety-three dollars and forty-three cents ($1,114,593.43), an increase over the year of 1898 of one hundred twerfty-seven thousand five hundred sixty-eight dollars and sixty cents ($127,568.60.) This increase in the main is caused by the constantly growing demands of the city on every department, notwithstanding the most rigid economy has been exercised. “Although the sum of one hundred twen-ty-seven thousand five hundred sixty-eight dollars and sixty cents ($127,568.60) more is asked for this year over that of last, I desire to call your attention to the following specific items of increase, which are deemed necessary for the public welfare: Electric lights SIO,OOO Repairing permanently Improved streets 8,000 Water 9,000 Sweeping streets 5,000 Improvement of new parks 61,510 Pay of fire force 13,260 Pay of police force 11,205

Total $118,035 ”1 concur in the estimates of the controller and recommend that the amounts specified be appropriated. I also concur in the estimates of the controller that the tax levy be fixed at 70 cents on each SIOO of taxable property and 50 cents on each poll for the year 1898. It is estimated this levy will produce a gross revenue of $805,258.70. From this must be deducted the sum of $12,000.04 for the firemen’s pension fund, as required by law, which will leave a net revenue from taxation of $851,266.75. Estimating the receipts from miscellaneous sources at $265,000, the amount to be received next year would be $1,115,258.75.

An ordinance to raise the tax levy from 60 to 70 cents was introduced, and was also referred to the finance committee. Mr. Little, desperate ir his determination to do something to merit the gratitude of the firemen and policemen, introduced an ordinance which Is a modification of his former ordinance raising salaries all around and which was nipped in the bud by the mayor and the city controller. The new' ordinance provides that members of the police and fire forces shall receive their regular salaries during sickness or disability, not exceeding sixty days, that policemen shall receive 20 cents an hour for extra duty, that firemen shall have a day off each week with pay and that bicycle patrolmen shall be provided with bicycles by the city. After Mr. Little Introduced his ordinance he made a motion to refer the ordinance to the judiciary committee, and It prevailed. The ordinance would have gone to the finance committee had not Mr. Little interfered. He is not a member of the finance committee. He is a member of the judiciary committee. The ordinance taxing breweries and brewery agencies within four miles of the city limits SI,OOO a year, just as they are taxed within the city, was passed. This ordinance is aimed at the Madison brewing Company's agency, just outside th.- western limits of the city. A phrase of the ordinance,

making distilleries liable to the same tax, was struck out, to save the life of the little distillery just north of the city. Mr. Little mtrouucfcu an amendment to the ordinance, reducing the tax to 4250, but it was lost. Mr. Moffett refused to vote for the ordinance because, as he said, he believed the city had only police power for four miles outside the city limits and not taxing power. Representatives of the Madison Brewing Company, ever since the ordinance was introduced, have been trying to persuade certain council men to use their energies to kill the ordinance. They said the agency would not be able to continue in business if the ordinance went into effect. The council men who voted against the ordinance last night were Little, Madden, Merrick, Moffett. Smith and Von Spreckelsen. The ordinance licensing second-hand dealers at $25 a year was lost. President Mahoney remarked: "The city doesn’t need money very badly, it seems.” Councilman Higgins said: "Do you think v e’re goin’ to let you fellows make the Jew’s in and around the Fifteenth ward sore at us?” The owners of the Oneida Hotel, on South Illinois street, may now build a veranda over th~ sidewalk. The ordinance allowing It was passed. Mr. Colter made a motion to refer the ordinance hack to the committee from whence it came so that the committee might study the plans for the veranda. He said the Bates House had been granted the privilege of erecting the same kind of a veranda and had obstructed the sidewalk with pillars entirely too w’ide. Mr. Scanlon said the committee had already seen the plans and they had been approved by the building inspector. The plans show the pillars will be fifteen inches wide. A communication, from the Board of Public Works was received asking for a special appropriation for this year of $5,000 for the city engineer’s department. The communication set out that three hundred improvement resolutions have been passed this year against 241 passed last year, that the city engineer’s department is crowded with work and that property owners are clamoring for improvements, some of which cannot possibly bo made until next year. The request was approved by the city controller. It was referred to the finance committee. President Mahoney introduced an ordinance to change Lie name of Huron street to Lexington avenue It w r as referred to the sewers, streets and alleys committee. He also introduced an ordinance providing a fine of not more than $lO nor less than $2 for maintaining a fence composed entirely or partly of barbed wire within the city limits. Mr. Von Spreckelsen introduced an ordinance providing a fine of not more than $25 for failure to burn rubbish deposited on the public dump, INFORMATION FOR CITY OFFICIALS. A resolution was introduced by President Mahoney and was passed, recommending that a special appropriation of SIBO annually be made and paid to the Municipal Engineering Company to recompense it for information to be given to the city officials. The plan is called the municipal officials' information service, and is conducted in connection with the Municipal Engineering Magazine, which is published in this city. This plan has the commendation of Gov. Mount, Mayor Taggart and other city and state officials. Newspapers and municipal officials all over the country have pronounced it to be of great service in the administration of municipal affairs. The resolution adopted last night by the Council will go to the mayor, if he approves it it will be sent to the city controller, who wdll recommend a special appropriation for the purpose of securing this information service for the city afficials of Indianapolis. City Attorney Kern sent a communication, to the Council recommending that nothing further be done in the matter of opening Rural street across the Pennsylvania Railroad tracks until the question of the city’s right is decided by the Supreme Court, where it is now pending. It is believed a decision will be secured by Jan. 1, 1899. After the meeting of the Council had adjourned President Mahoney. Mr. Moffet and Mr. Higgins became involved in a “discussion” of parliamentary law. Mr. Higgins had been particularly bellicose during the meeting. He broke out roughly, “If I didn’t have any more sense than you have I wouldn’t try to be president of the Council.” President Mahoney’s face reddened, and he replied sharply, “If I had as big a head as you have I might have more sense. 1 know enough to know that I have very little sense.” Higgins: “If your head got any bigger it’d explode.” This courtly conversation was kept up for a few minutes and then there was a playful scene of “making up.” President Mahoney’s irritation at Higgins’s style of “humor” was not smoothed away, however. A meeting of the Council does not pass at which Higgins does not “break out,” and several of the quiet, business-like members have the opinion that Higgins’s presence at the meetings is not conducive to the best work. Other members of the Council sometimes ride rough-shod over President Mahoney and he seldom resents it, even when it is an open infraction of the rules.

REFUSED TO SIGN. Board of Safety Decline* to Renew Central Union Telephone Contract. The Board of Fublic Safety yesterday morning refused to sign contracts with the Central Union Telephone Company for telephone service. John A. King, a repre>sentative of the telephone company, presented contracts which provided for an abandonment of the private line between the Board of Safety office and the police and fire headquarters, which lias cost $224. The telephone company was also willing to reduce the rate on the “trunk” line into the fire department headquarters to S9O a year. President Alack, of the board, said: “We may have to deal with another company.” The telephone company proposed to charge the city $1,784 for the telephone service between tho fire engine houses only. Stone Wall to Re Built. The Board of Public Works yesterday morning ordered a stone wall to be built along the east bank of Pogue’s run from McCarty street to McCauley street.

The sirdar of the army in Egypt, on whom the eyes of Englishmen are now turned from every quarter of the empire, has had a very extraordinary experience, having swallowed a bullet with which he had been wounded, and which he now preserves as a memento. During the campaign of 1888 Major Kitchener was hit in the side of the face by a bullet during a skirmish near Suakim, and was taken down the Nile and thence to the Citadel Hospital at Cairo, where, despite all the efforts of the surgeons. the bullet could not be located, the rays being then unknown. Oh the authority of Sergeant Bllton, late of the medical staff corps, who is now in London, and who was then specially detailed to look after the injured officer, the wound was a healthy one, and very soon healed, and the medical officers came to the conclusion that the bullet had worked its way out without being noticed on the passage down the Nile. Bllton one day tempted his patient’s appetite with a tasty beefsteak, which the major had no sooner attacked than he put his hand to his throat, exclaiming, “Biiton, if there was no hone in the steak I’ve swallowed that bullet ; I felt it go down." This proved to be the case, the bullet passing through the alimentary canal without injury 10 the distinguished officer. She Wanted to Help. Washington Star. It was the tiny daughter of a clergyman who was recently asked to accompany her mother on a walk. "No,” was her positively spoken answer, “I can't go.” “Why not?” “I have to help papa.” “In what way? ’ “He told me to sit here in this corner and keep quiet, while he wrote his sermon, and 1 don’t believe he is half through yet.”

THEY LOSE THE SUIT + SUPERIOR COURT DECIDES AGAINST FIRM OF DICK9OX A TALBOTT. - Judgment Against Them for Rent for English's Theater—News of the Conrts. Judge McMater, of Room 1, Superior Court, late yesterday evening gave a decision in the salt of W. E. English agaii st the theatrical firm of Dickson &. Talbott. The court derided in favor of Mr. English, giving him a judgment against the defendants for $3,621.03. The suit grew out of a disagreement between the theatrical firm and Mr. English during the last year the firm occupied English's Opera House. This disagreement arose when the house was leased to the Valentine syndicate. Dickson & Talbott claimed that the owner of the house refused to carry out his contract with them. They had been paying $6,500 a year for their lease and Captain English brought suit to recover about $4,000, which he claimed they owed him for rent. The attorneys for Dickson & Talbott did not dispute the rent claim, but they contended that Mr. Engdsh owed them damages for having the entrance to the theater blocked at the beginning of one season, by reason of which one of their theatrical bookings could not be carried out. Including S6OO attorney fees, which the theatrical firm will have to pay, the judgment will amount to $4,000. The suit was tried last spring and Judge McMaster has since had the case under advisement. An appeal will probably be taken to the Supreme Court. ♦ HIS FRIVOLOUS WIFE. Milton W.
