AMUSEMENTS. James E. Sullivan, who alternated with T. L. Don as the murderous German in "The Belle of New York." is to be at the head of a company playin a new musical farce next season. The indefatigable Harry B. Smith is writing the book for the piece and Ludwig Engländer Is writing the music. The title Is "The Three Wishes." XXX W. F. Leary and P. E. Brown, treasurer and advertising manager of English's Opera House, have returned from New York full of stories of the town. They say Broadway Is crowded with actors looking for engagements, many of them needing money badly to tide them orr till the opening of the season. During the recent hot spell, they say. the bathing beaches were black with people seeking relief In the water. Leary donned a bathing suit after the pattern of Dave Warfield's costume in Weber & Flelds's show of last eason. and when It btcame soaked with water It almost dragged him to the bottom. xxx Louis Nethersole having been married to Sadie Martlnot will be her manager next reason. She will be seen In a new play by Clyde Fitch entitled "The Marriage Game." It Is paid that Mr. Nethersole has received a letter from Mr. Fitch, who Is in France. In which he says the new play will "out-Sapho 'Sapho.' nnd that persona that do not care for "spire" had better stay away from the theaters while "The Marriage dame" is being played. It is difficult to believe that Mr. Fitch sntd this, for h is looked cn as a man of Intelligence. In the case of "Hapho." however, there was another reason for the public staying away from Its performances than that of Its "spiritless" it was as poor a dramatization of Daudet's novel as a playwright of ordinary skill could produce. It was Mr. Fitch's work.

and
President Nenl Grutifled at Indorsement of Recent Action. Secretary of State Hunt, who is also a prominent member of the order of Knights of Pythias, and who was a supreme representative from this State at jhe recent session of the Supreme Lodge in Chicago, received a letter of more than common Interest yesterday from Charles F. S. Neal, of Lebanon, Ind., now president of the board of control of the Endowment Rank, K. of P. President Neal writes from Chicago under date of July IS concerning the effect of the action of the Supreme Lodge In deciding to increase the insurance rates In the Endowment Rank instead of allowing that branch of the order to be thrown Into the hands of a receiver. "Correspondence reaching this ofilce." said Mr. Neal. "indicates a ready compliance with the recent action of the Supreme Lodge. A Hood of Inquiries are here conveying a feeling of hope for the future of the Endowment Rank. The remittances thus far received this month are especially gratifying, and I have been able to pay more than 5k0X) in death claims thus far in the month." Mr. Hunt was highly gratltled with the statements in Mr. Neal's letter. "Why, it is little short of marvelous that President Neal should have succeeded in straightening out the tangled affairs of the Endowment Rank in this brief space of time to the extent of enabling him to pay so large an amount of death claims," declared Mr. Hunt. "You see It is only a little more than two weeks slncts the 1st of July. Th supreme representatives from IndianaMessrs. Shivcly. Shkleler, Hawkins, Watson and myself are preparing a circular to send out to the members of the rank telling them what was done at Chicago and advising them to stand by the Endowment Rank and support it. In this circular. we express our confidence in the ultimate success of the rank, and evry one of us believes sincerely in it. Personally I have no doubt that the Endowment Rank will be In better condition twelve months from now than It ever was before." Mr. Hunt showed Mr. Neal's letter to State Auditor Hart yesterdav and the latter expressed unqualified admiration for Mr. Neal's efforts to place the Endowment Rank on a substantial basis. ACTON ASSEMBLY.

CHILD BADLY BURNED.
Jeasle .Murphy, Fonr Year Old, May Loar Her Life. Jessie, the four-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank M. Murphy, of S17 English avenue, was terribly and perhaps fatally burned yesterday about noon. She was p'.aylr.g about the stove where her mother was cooking fruits for canning, and her dress caught fire. Mrs. Murphy was, at the time, at a neljhbor'r- house, .md was call d home by the cries of her child. The llan-.rs were smothered by Mrs. Murphy with an apron, t-Jt not before the girl had been badly burned.

Attorney John T. Beasley, of Terre Haute, representing the Terre Haute Street-railway and Electric Company, told the State Board of Tax Commissioners yesterday morning the prize "hard-luck" story of the present session of the board. "Mr. Beasley's story," said State Auditor Hart, a member of the tax board, "was one that could only bivouac on Poverty Flat, since the company he represented seems to have been camping in the hardest kind of luck for fbveral years past." Mr. Beasley said the company was placed in the hands of a receiver a few years ago and only recently came back into the possession of the original owners, who were forced to pay a little more money to get possession of their property. He said the men at the head of the company are doing thtlr level best to develop it so that it will produce at least the promise of a dividend. They have added a suburban line to Brazil, also a heating plant that furnishes warmth to the postotflce building, the McKeen block ar.d several other large structures in Terre Haute. The electric lighting contract, declared Mr. Beasley, is one of the contracts of his company that was not judiciously made and is really a money loser. Mr. Beasley was perfecly frank in his statements to the board and met the bombardment of Interrogr.to'rles from the various members In a pleasantly open way, but contrived to leave a very clear Impression that the Terre Haute Street-railway and Electric Company is one property that Is a constant drain upon Its owners so far as making up deficits Is concerned. WABASH TRACTION COMPANY. Attorney Nelson G. Hunter, of Wabash, asked the board not to assess the Wabash River Traction Company, for the reason that the road has not yet been completed and put into the control of its owners. Mr. Hunter is a resident director of the road. He said It posspsstü no property on which it could be assessed April 1, since its contract of construction was in the hands of a company ihat could not possibly complete the road before An. l. p.Kii, at which time the company will pay over the contract price and the road will b. put into operation. Mr. Hunter i'iivl an afhidavit with the board as to the iiuth of these statements, anl tin matter mentioned In the affidavit will be glvri consideration later. Samuel O. Pickens, geneial counsel or the Western Union Telegraph Compa- y, was to have been heard y-,erciay afternoon, but sent word that " rouli no: appear before the board c account of the absence of J. F. WalilcK, superintendent of the company, from ine city. The ."earing of the Western t'nion Company's appeal was postponed until next. Tuesday. Attorney General Taylor made a statement concerning the Southern Railwiy Company of Virginia, which recently acquired the property of the L.. E. fc St. L. (Air-line) at public auction. Mr. Taylor said he appeared as a mitler of accommodation to his friend. Ihe president of ti e road, who could not :om.- to IndiinapolU during the present session of the tax board.' Mr. Taylor said the president of the road had intimated thu he wii be satisried if the assessment of the roar! is left at its present figure. JUDGE JOHNSON APPEARS. Yesterday afternoon Judge W. O. Johnson, of Chicago, appeared for the Chicago & Erie Railroad, the Armour Transportation Company, the Hope Natural Gas Company, the Indiana and Illinois Gas Company and about twelve or fifteen mercantile companies that own freight cars for transporting their own wares. Speaking for the railroad. Judge Johnson said that he was satisfied with the present assessment. On the subject of natural gas companies, the attorney agreed with other men who had spoken on the same subject in the conclusion that natural gas will soon be a thing of the past, and as a consequence he said the value of the plants he represents is rapidly traveling "toward the West." The tax board Is proceeding very carefully and thoroughly in the assessment of transportation and pipe lines, as this is the first time these values have been fixed by it. A day or two of careful revision of th sworn returns of these various companies will be required In order to enable the board to arrive at a fair level of values. The members of the board spent the greater part of the day in executive session, discussing this part of their duties. An adjournment was taken at 4 o'clock in the afternoon unrtl 9 o'clock this morning. No hearing is on the docket for to-daj. but the board will have plenty of business to occupy Its attention. There will be night sessions next week. This ha? been made nee-ssary by the unusual amount of extra work imposed on the board by legisUtJj. enacttd by the last legislature.

THE MILITARY IN CAMP
LOCAL HATTA LIOX MARCHES TO THE FAIR GllOl'.XUS.
FIrat Annonneenient of (iovrrnor Durb in' Full Staff Formutlon of the Camp.
Tcople who were down town yesterday afternoon had a significant reminder of the formal opening of the annual camp cf Instruction of the Indiana National Guard at the state fair grounds to-day by seeing the local battalion, under command of Ma Jor Conde and Captains Little, McClaln. Tower and Drapler, form in true marching order opposite the courthouse and set out on the weary tramp to the site of the camp. A few minutes after 6 o'clock this morning the first of the out-of-town companies of the guard t?gan arriving at the Union Station. IZy 11:43 the entire state militia will be In the city. Most of the soldiers will be transported by railroad direct to the fair grounds, but a number of companies will tramp through the city's streets to the camp. Everything Is ready for the camp to be formally inaugurated. Major Harmon L. Hutson. chief quartermaster, and Major W. H. Kershner, chief commissary on General McKee's staff, have done their work well, a fact that will be thoroughly appreciated when the soldier "boys" settle down into camp this afternoon. Governor Durbin, it la said, squirmed and wriggled in his chair at the head of the State Tax Board yesterday in anticipation of the delightful prospect of being a soldier and wearing a uniform and. riding a horse again next week. Thursday will be the gala clay of the week of the camp of instruction. It is officially designated as "Governor's day," and the reason of this is that the Governor will in the afternoon of that day attend dre-;s parade and inspect the entire guard, "riding the lines," as it is called. This consists in gallon'.ne on horseback the full length of
'the line. Last year the Governor's staff
undertook to accompany him on tnis expedition, but failed ignominiously. because
Governor Mount knew how to ride a horse better than they did. It is likely that next Thursday Governor Durbin's staff will content themselves with witnessing the graceful curvettes of their chief s noble steed as he Hies swiftly past the splendid array Of soldiers. THE GOVERNOR'S STAFF. After weeks of the most arduous study and calculation Governor Durbin and Secretary Wilson completed, yesterday, the ctlcial list of the Governor's military staff for the next four years, as follows: Brigadier Generals. John R. Ward, adjutant general, Monticello. 11. S. Foster, quarte; master general, Indianapolis. James K. Gore, honorary, Elkhart. B. A. Richardson, honorary, Indianapolis. Colonels., Charles K.

There are forty-nine men on Governor Durbin's staff, an increase of about fifteen over the :taff of Governor Mount. Two of these additions are accounted for by the appointment of ex-Adjutant General Gore ami ex-Quartermaster General Richardson as honorary members of the new staff. The appointment of Fletcher M. Durbin, the Governor's son, as a personal aid, with the rank of major, was made by Governor Mount before his retirement from olhce, and it was done because Governor Mount knew Governor Durbin's fixed purpose to appoint no relative to an office under his administration. Each member of Governor Durbin's staff has been requested to attend the camp of Instruction a part of next week, if possible, and forty members have signified their purpose to be present on Governor's day. at least. Adjutant General Ward yesterday received a tine blue print showing the manner in which th camp has been laid out under the direction of Lieutenant Guy A. Boyle, of (Jeneral McKee's staff. The camp extends the full length of the fair grounds on the west, which is almost entirely covered by trees, affording agreeable rhade. The first regiment that a visitor entering the south gate of the grounds will see will be the Second Infantry Regiment of the guard. Next to It Is the artillery battahjn. and to the north the First Regiment. The extreme north of the camp will be occupied by the Third Infantry Regiment. The artillery battalion will be located just north of the horticultural hall, while the first Regiment will face the west side of the race track. National ftnard Cnnimiaaionii. Commissions In the Indiana National Guard were Issued by Governor Durbin and Adjutant General Ward yesterday as follows: Frank R. Little, to be fitt lieutenant of Company K. Second Intantry, Danville. Otis M. Astley, to be second lieutenant of Company D. Second Infantry, Indianapolis. Charles V. Sears. t be battalion quarter-
.liaster St-rnno inianiry. lanvtlle. Harvey W. Bain, to be battalion quartermailer First Infantry, Martinsville. James F. Sherwood, to be battalion quartermaster First Infantry, Evansville. Soldier Coming Inder Protest. MUNCIE. Ind., July 10. Company B of the Indiana National Guard will go to Indianapolis to-morrow morning and will have In charge one member who is going
under protest after having been forcibly taken from the postofflce by Captain Rltter's squad to the outdoor camp. This member is Ira Dearth, a clerk in the postoffice, who could not get excused from one branch of the government service to enter the other and refused to go until forcibly taken away. He will be taken before Judge Baker and there will be settled an interesting question as to who has authority In such cases, the federal or military department.

The Original Soo-See Ilnctlnie Dnnd to Come Ilere. Of all the funny performances that have been seen in this country so far, the original Soo-See Ragtime Rand, under the direction of Herr Bickell, Is undoubtedly entitled to the palm. This band is made up of the twenty-five clowns of the Fore-paugh-Sells Twentieth Century Colossus, all of whom are actually good musicians. Of course the whole thing is a burlesque o! military bands and band music, but it is done in a very artistic manner. The uniforms worn by the band are the ludicrous and varied costumes of the clown, and their

A CASE OF .EXTRAVAGANCE.
OU never cut off three-quarters of a new cake of soap and throw it awayl Yet you pay twice the price of Ivory Soap for a cake of "tinted" toilet soap less than half as
large. Your little cake of toilet soap costs you four times the price of Ivory, for it lasts only half as long; and costs twice as much. No money can buy purer or better scap than Ivory. If it came in dainty paper, all scented and colored, you would pay fifteen cents for a very small cake of it.
Instruments look as though they had been dug up from ihe bottom of a heap of Junk, old and battered and worn, and no two of them are the same style and. fhape. Herr Bickell gives a marvelous Imitation of .the celebrated Sousa leading his band, and makes up so like he distinguished bandmaster that he might easily be mistaken for him. His imitation goes so far as to include all the little tricks cf motion with the baton, to which the burlesque musicians respond in a most ludicrous manner. After repeated encores they leave the arena to the measure of a lively march played with the utmost accuracy and In perfect time, much to the surprise of every Ufetener. This band made its initial bow to
the public of the metropolis at Madison Square Garden a year ago last spring an4 made a hit. It will be seen here on Wednesday, July 31.

HOMEWARD BOUND
AN ARTIST, it is said, should stand or fall on the judgment of his peers, since they, and not the general public, who know not the difficulties of depicting- forcefully a scene, are competent to pass upon his performance. It is an easjr matter for a painter to take an unusual subject that lends itself to striking- fig-ure work or brilliant coloring, and produce a picture that will captivate the multitude. It is quite another thing- to take a scene that is essentiatly commonplace and put into it that indefinable something which arrests attention and elicits words of praise. It is not every artist who could take a couple of peasants in a barren field, as did Millet, and produce a picture that will live for the ages for its religious sig-nificance. And so it is not every artist who could take as commonplace a subject as a herd of cattle coming- home at nightfall along a stretch of roadway with prosaic barbed wire fences, and produce a picture full of beauty and meaning. That is what the artist has done in Homeward Bound." It is an incident of country life truly and interprctatively rendered. The fine green foreground of trees and grass is photographic in its fidelity to nature, and the broad expanse of the sky is luminous with the red glow ot the sun. The cattle are models of good drawing-, and the different positions in which they are depicted are a witness to the deftness and ability of the artist The beautiful color photography reproduction is as perfect as art could make it, and the picture is an evidence of the essential beautv of realism.
This Beautiful picture in Colors and MOUNTED ON A MAT will be ßiven Free with the Sunday Journal, To-morrow.
Arrangements Have Been Made With L. S. Ayres Co. Pettis Dry Goods Co. S. M. Pouder nnd The II. Lieber Co. W. H. Roll's Sons To frame these pictures at special rates.
