Jade Dunran'i Plea for a rtloomlnsr ton Company V. J. Van Vorhin 3Ink.es Argumeut. The State Board of Tax Commissioners held two busy sessions yesterday and finished all the hearings of appeals that were entered on the docket kept by Secretary Frank Martin. In the morning Judge Henry Clay Duncan, representing the Light, Heat and Tower Company of Kloomlngton, argued against tho action of the Monroe County Board of Review in assessing the company on a statement showing the value of Its property in June instead of April 1, as required by the tax law. Judge Duncan said that the company furnished this etatemcnt to the County Board of Review 011 request without knowing for what purpose It was to be U5ed. lie said that the June statement Included the value of the gas company's plant, which by that time was consolidated with tho light, heat and power company's plant and that the gas company had previously been assesed at $ru,0X. Judge Duncan nlo said that an additional assessment of JlT.ftX) was put on tho electric light plant, which he thought was about II'IOOO loo high. Kx-State Senator Edwin F. Corr appeared for the Monroe County Board of Review. In the afternoon ex-Senator George W. Belf presented the formal protest of the Bank of Corydon against Us assessment fixed by the Harrison County Board of Review. Tiid question Involved in thl3 appeal was as to whether a bank has a right to depreciate the value of Its bills receivable. Mr. Self said that something like J120.0OU of notes belonging to the bank had been assessed by the County Board of Review at an advance of 5i per $100 of their face value. Tho American Bell Telephone Company's appeal from the assessment made on Its property by the Wayno County Board of Keviow was prevented by General Counsel Richardson, of ChtcaRO. Alpheus G. Compton. county a-sei-or, appeared for the Wayne county board. Mr. Richardson contended that the telephone instruments phou d have been assessed at $10 each instead of $13, and insisted that the state board ought to have done tho assessing inete.irt of the county board The greater part of the afternoon session was taken up with the argument of F. J. Van Vorhls. made to convince the board that the Belt Railroad Company of this city should be assessed on its property and not the Urion Railway Company, lessee of the Belt. M.rs. Morris & Newbergtr. attorneys for the railroad company, raised the point that tdne- tho Marlon County l'.oard of Review had taken no action in the matter the state board could not entertain tho appeal. After deliberating ovtr this point in an executive session the'board lojst.urir-d the attorney for the Belt and the appeal of Mr. Van Vorhis was disrr.is'se 1. The tax board will hold an executive session thin mrnli'c. It 1 not known whether any appeal- will be heard to-day.

SENTIMENT ABOUT BEER

SHALL IT Bi: SOLD I I) Bit TUB FA I It (.((IIMIS (.It AM) STAM) ? Tlie fieneral Labor liny Committee .Not Vet Able to Satisfactorily Sole the I'roblem. The general committee of the Central Labor organization met last night to discuss plans for the Labor-day celebration and the qufptlon of permitting gambling i nd drinking at the fair grounds consumed most of the time. The question was not fettled, as there was a difference of opinion on the matter, but it will be decided at the meeting Sunday morning. One of the delegatts speaking against allowing the privilege of beer selling referred to the last celebration at the fair grounds, when beer was sold under the grand stand: "It was a disreputable fight to see men and boy?, and even girls, come from under the grand stand doing the Highland fling and cutting other capers while under tho influence of liquor," he said. "We want to give the people good attractions and give them what they want In tlie way of amusement, but we do not want to have scenes at the celebration that would Hot be fit for our wives to witness." Another man, speaking against gambling, Faid that all the games played at such a pl'ice were nothing but "i-kin games," and it was like putting down a dollar and telling the man who run tlie game he could have it. There was a ftrong sentiment aga!nt gambling and many were against beer telling. One man taid that beer could be sold if the business were conducted properly and there were at least fifteen city iohcemcn and two detectives on the ground to maintain order. It was decided that there will bo six divisions in the labor parade, if six bands can be secured. It was decided to equalize the contracts for music ?o that the bands engaged for other attractions the evening of that day would not receive the contracts for the concerts and dancing music at the fair grounds, but uch contracts would be awarded to other union bands. It was decided to secure three or four speakers for the afternoon celebration at the fair grounds and David Iilack. editor of tho Iron Möhlers' Journal, of Cincinnati, will be Invited to deliver an address. Other speakers will also be Invited to address the crowd.DROWNED IN A POND. Frank Trees, Eleven Years of Arc, Lost Ilia Life. Frank Trees, the eleven-year-old son of Mrs. Julia Trees, a widow, living at 2224 North La Salle street, was drowned yesterday about noon in a pond known as Howland's pond, about a mile north of Thirtieth street In Brightwood. He was there with several other boys fishing and went Into thB water to swim while the others fished. He disappeared under the water's surface and did not come up. Two of his companions, Raymond Bloom, living on Foundry street, and Ira Jone. living at Twenty-eighth and Gale streets, said he sank without making any eoutcry and it was not until he had been under for some time that they became alarmed. They had continued Anhing meanwhile. When they realized that young Trees had been drowned the other two boys, whose names could not be learned, went to Brightwood and advised the mother. Alva Atherton. of Philadelphia, who was at the house at the time, rode a bicycle to the pond and then waded into tho water and dragged the body out. As Tree had been under the water for at least two hours no effort to revive him was made and the City Dispensary ambulance was called and the body sent to his home. The water in the pond was about four feet deep. Mrs. Trees has one other eon and two daughters. GEORGE HODELL DEAD. Ills Demise Occurred at the Acton Cn tup Grounds. Georgo Hodell, of 1G36 Tark avenue, this city, died yesterday morning at Camp Acton. His death was due to heart failure.

Charles, who is professor of literature in the Woman's College. Baltimore, and George, who Is now acting as an engineer in the navy. The latter is stationed at Manila. The funeral services will be held in the Tabernacle in the camp grounds this morning, and will be condueted by tlie Rev. Charles Tinsley, of this city. The body will be taken to Bawreneeburg for burial beside his father. The latter arrangement is the fulfillment of a wish the deeeasea expressed at tlie burial of a granchlld last week while in Shelbyvllle. Mr. Hoddl lived in Shelby ville for a number of years, ana was president of the Hodell Furniture Company. He has lived in Indianapolis but two years. HENRY SPAAN'S FROG. Attorney Itelntea Story of Iii Lnat Visit to the KuiikaKec. "Your speaking of tho Kankakee," said Henry N. Spaan to one of several men that wero trading fishing stories yesterday afternoon, "reminds me of the last time I was fishing in that river. One afternoon my companions were hauling 'era In hand over list all around me, and I couldn't get a bite. "I sat frying in the Fun, wondering why some tlsh didn't have the senso to swallow tho live frog that was kicking on tho end of my line. I watched the line for so long that my eyes were tired, and .o rest them I began to examin the bank. About three feet to the left of me waa a big white stone, sticking its head above the water. As my eyes wandered over this stone they fell on a frog, which was basking in tlie un and blinking at me. Suddenly I became aware that tho frog had a hook in Its mouth and that a line was trailing down the rock Into the water. 1 jerked up my lino and the frog- tumbled off into tlie water. Yes, It was my fro. I don't know how Ion it had ben sitting there; probably about two hours." ANOTHER "PEKING NIGHT." Lnst Fridiir MkIiCh SIhmt to lie lie. prated nt Grrmnu limine. The members of the German House were so pleased with tho amusement committee's entertainment "A Night in lVklng" last Friday night in the garden that the festoons of colored lanterns have been put up again for the concert to-night.

There were many n.en and women from North Indianapolis jtiscnt. Fvld ru e was Introduced to show that Moore hid soli liquor In violation of thf I'ov and that he was recently titu-d in the Criminal Court on th.it charge. Moore dmled that he had sold liquor on Sun. lay. He said If liuuor was ?old It was by his hired man who sleep in the barn.

After a few days of unusually cool and pleasant weather, giving great relief from thf.' recent long-continued hot spell, the mercury yesterday b'gan to show signs of its former strength and reached tho 'j7 mark, where it remained for two hours. People generally felt the heat, although thre was. during most of the time, a fair breeze. The weather bureau observer said he had no Idea what was coming, but it was probable the heat would not be so demonstrative as It was when the high record foi thirty-one years was made last month.

THE MACHINE FOR BELL TAG GART WILL LH 3D HIM ALL ASSISTANCE IX IIIS POWER. John J. Appel Assures the Aaatstant City Attorney of Ills Good Wishes Hell Not Ready to Talk. Although Joseph E. Bell still declines to announce himself as a candidate it Is generally understood that he will make the race for the Democratic nomination for mayor. He will be supported by the Taggart machine and will have the advantage of the knowledge and good wishes of the Democratic city committee. The friends of William F. Moore fay that while they expect to get along without tho good wishes of the Democratic city committee, yet they will not consent that Mr. Bell or any other candidate whom the Taggart Democrats may announce shall have any advantage over Mr. Moore to which he is not entitled by law. A Moore man said, yesterday, that he understood Fanning would make an attempt to put Bell's name, in the event of his candidacy. In tho first place on the ticket. "We certainly will not stand for anything of that sort," said he, "as Mr. Fanning will find out If ho tries it. Moore was the first candidate to file his petition with the city chairman and, under the law. he Is entitled to first place on the ticket." Mayor Taggart returned from Chicago yesterday morning and was In conference with Fanning and Bell during the greater part of the day. Late yesterday afternoon Beil said that he had nothing to add to what he had already said. "I am still thinking about it," said he, "and will let you know when I have made up my mind." It is understood that John J. Appel has informed Mr. Bell that he will not be a candidate and that he will do what he can to secure Bell's nomination. Fanning would not say, yesterday, whether a petition asking that Bell's name be placed on the ticket had been presented or not. TOO MUCH SIGHT-SEEING SPIRITUAL SIDE OF EPWORTII COXvi:.Tio. m:glecti:d. The Hospitality of San Francisco People Kept the Delegates on the Move All the Time. Rev. D. A. Robertson, pastor of East Park M. E. Church, returned home yesterday from the Epworth Leaguo national convention at San Francisco, accompanied by his wife and brother, Prof. E. A. Robertson, of Sedalia, Mo., who will visit him for a few days. Rev. Robertson, who is one of the first of the Indianapolis delegates to return, said the majority of Eastern people who attended the San Francisco convention were of opinion that tho convention did not compare with the national convention held in Indianapolis two years ago. "The preparations for tho entertainment of the delegate.? and guests at the San Francisco convention were made on an enormous scale and everything was done to make the visitors enjoy themselves," said Rev. Robertson last night, "but I believe and the general opinion was held that tho spiritual and Intellectual side of tho convention did not compare with the Indianapolis convention. This was caused, I think, by a Pirgo number of the delegates devoting their time to sightseeing instead of Convention work and they did not derive the si iritual good out of the meetings that the delegates to the Indianapolis convention did when they came here and devoted their timo to the spiritual part of the programme and not so much to sightseeing. "When we wero en routo to Snn Francisco we wero met about sixty miles from that city by a delegation of Leaguers who filled our cars with huge boxes of oranges and prepared us for the grand reception afforded us whei we arrived in San Francisco. In that city everything was done to make our visit pleasant and at every place we visited on the Pacific coast, from Los Angeles to Portland, we were accorded the same cordial hospitality. As far as sightseeing and plcarant times were concerned the convention was a, great success." Rev. Robertson will preach at East Park M. E. Church Sunday morning and evening and in the evening he will talk about the San Francisco convention. .Major TiiCKart Tnlks of His Hotel. Mayor Taggart was asked yesterday concerning tlie truth of a statement telegraphed from Milwaukee, Wednesday, that work on tho new French Lick Springs Hotel will probably be delayed. "That is,very strange," he said, "in view of tho fact that bids for the construction of the new building are to be opened in French Lick Saturday at 2 p. m." Mr. Taggart said the new hotel at the springs will bo constructed of Bedford stone and that it will be five stories high and thoroughly modern in every respect. "When our new building Is finished." he said, "which will be about the middle of next March or tho llrst of April, we will bo able to care for ST guests. The old hotel, whhh is being conducted right along, accommodaUs ;'.o. and the new house will have lnj bedrooms." Examination of uvnl Cadets. Applicants for cadetshlps In the United States Naval Academy will be examined by the local civil-service board on Aug. 13 and 11. The present plan is a new departure, as heretofore the examinations have been held at Annapolis. The examination will be for all applicants In Indiana, both those who have been appointed cadets and those who are alternates. The applicants will be examined in punctuation, capital letters, grammar, geography. history, reading, spelling, arithmetic, algebra and geometry. Tmo Arrest 31 a de. John Klnley, well known to the police and living at t West Pearl street, and Charles Wood, fourteen years of ace, living at 540 West Maryland street, were arrested yesterday by Dttectives Ibdtz and Morgan. They are charged with the theft of brass from the Junk shop at t& West Washing ton street, on bunuay last.

WILL HAVE LOCAL EFFECT

INDIANAPOLIS DISINESS MEN' TALK OF THE STEEL STRIKE. Building: Will Re SerIoul Interfered with If Strike Continues Long An Advance of Prices. Notwithstanding the fact that President Shaffer's order directing stefl workers tb po out docs not take effect until to-morrow, the mere expectation of a strike has had a perceptible effect on local business. Local hardware men report a decided advance In prices of articles made of steed, particularly light plates, also in hoop iron. Thus far the effect is to enable those w ho carry large stocks to make some money, but if the strike continues any length of time prices will, it is believed, reach a prohibitive point arid the demand for such goods will cease. If the big steel mills remain closed long enough building operations here and elsewhere will be seriously hampered. If not, Indeed, suspended entirely. MM Franklin Vonnegut, of the Vonnegut Hardware Company, said yesterday: "We reccive'd to-day our first definite information that the steel strike has begun to affect our business. I have a letter here from a factory from which we ordered some goods a short time ago. notifying us that it is short of the stock from vvhieh these goods are made and that it has been obliged to decline to enter r.y more orders until it becomes definitely known what arrangements thev can make to obtain material. We anticipate a scarcity of nails if the strike continues long. Wire manufacturers have been way behind with their orders anyway for some time. The strike will also seriously interfere with building unless it is settled soon." xxx "The steel strike has not affected us perceptibly so far," said a representative of tho Haugh-Noelke iron works. "It will only catch us on light plates and hoop iron. That has gone up perhips 10 to 15 per cent. We use it in making fire proofing and w hen our supply runs out we will, ot course, feel the effects of the btrike if we cannot get more material except at a great advance. Of course, if the Carnegie mills and similar plants should bo closed down it would cripple shops that are engaged in iron construction work and it would also affect bridge concerns, for they would be unable to ret material. We do not think this is likely to happen, however. Thus far. there has been no change In structural shapes, the only advance being in light weights." xxx "The strike has a tendency to raise rrices on all goods," paid Haydon Robison, manager of the iron, steel and carriage goods department of the Van Camp Hardware and Iron Company, "for the reason that it is throwing business into other channels that would go to the steel people. For instance, the Republic Iron and Steel Company has not been making bands, but now they are doing- a great deal of this kind of work that properly belongs to the United States Steel Corporation's mills. They ure getting better prices for the hands, too, than were formerly obtained. If the strike continues very Ions the prices on all lines of steel goods will be advanced materially. In time. too. the strike will affect building interests a great deal." xxx E. G. Albrecht, manager of tho tinners supply department or the Van Camp establishment, said: "We have advanced our prices on all sheet steel, galvanized sheets and tin rlate on account of the strike. We had an Inquiry to-day from a jobber in the "West concerning: a carload of sheets, and another from a Detroit jobber concerning tin plate. We told the Western jobbt r that the price on the sheets would le ).73, and ho called us up by long-elistance telephone and gave us the order, even at the advanced price, which shows wnat conditions must be in the West when they have to come to Indianapolis to get their goods. 1 was talking with a proprietor of a sheet mill to-day. and ho quotfd us a price IS per cent, higher than when we bought from him the last time, lie, gave it as his opinion that the strike would be settled within a week or ten days, but. of course, his opinion is only that of a single ran and docs not carry great weight. There is a seat city of tin plate and sheets all over the country, and it is likely to crow worse instead of better." SAFETY BOARD LENIENCY. Patrolman llnnlon Gets Off Easily A Fireman Renlgns. Tatrolman Lawrence Ilanlon was tried before the Board of Safety yesterday morning on the charge of neglecting his duty and conduct unbecoming an officer, and fined ten days' pay. It was the third time Hanlon had been before the board on similar charges. The evidence showed that Hanlon had drunk in saloons and had not attended to his duties. He did not try to refute the evidence against him on the charge of drinking. Chairman Hyde and Mr. Mahoney, the Democratic members, deemed it wise to let the offender off with a light tine, as Ilanlon is a Democrat. Mr. McMillan said, as Hanlon had been before tho board before on the same charges and had acquired n practice of disregarding the rules of the board, he should be suspended for at least thirty days or fined thirty days pay. and lie further said such offenders should be dismissed from the force. The Democratic members were in the majority, and Hanlon was given the nominal line of ten days' pa y. Fireman James Kelly was to have been tried before the board on tho charge of absenting himself from duty without leave, but he appeared at the meeting of the boird under the influence of liquor and signed a resignation which was prepared for him, and he was dismissed without trial. Anslnns for Strect-Cnr Extension. A committee of the South Side Citizens Club will call on the Board of Works next week and see what can be done In the matter of extending the Shelby-street car line to the south side of Garfield Park and improving the South East-street line either by continuing it down East street to the Madison-avenue line or bv cutting across and connecting it with the Shelby-street line. The committee called on Vice President Jones, of the street-railway company, several days ago, to have the ?hvlbv-street line extended, and Mr. Jone! informed the committee that the matter will have to be taken up by the directors of the companv. The committee will report to the clüh again at a meeting to be held at the O. P. Morton Club on Sept. 3. BIG INCORPORATION FEES. West Baden Springs Company Uns u Cnultul of $1,0.H,040.

EXHIBITION OF SWIilillNG. Captain RIondell Cuts .Capers in the Water at Rroad Ripple. Captain L. D. Blonde!! gave his first exhibition of swimming at Broad Ripple Park last night to several hundred spectators. The river was well lighted with arc lights and floats, and the exhibition was viewed by crowds cn the bank and in boats. The leading feature of his performance is the building of a raft in tlie water and cooking a meal. This he does with comparative ease. While his coffee i3 boiling he gives an exhibition of fancy swimming. After his meal he enjoys a cig3r while he floats around on his back lnd reads a newspaper. After this performance he drinks a bottle of milk under water and also smokes a pipe under water. The entertainment Is closed with the blowing up oZ a vessel. The style of vessel is changed each night. Last night it was a licht rigged boat. The torch was applied, and the burning of the vessel made a pretty spectacle. Dozens of Roman candles were adjusted in the rigging, so that they fired in all directions while the upper work burned. The scene closed with a tremendous explosion, which also ended the exhibition. Captain Blondcll will give, a performance each night this week and one Sunday afternoon at 4:ö'0 o'clock. The entertainment Sunday afternoon will embody the blowing up of the battleship Maine, which will be a boat equipped in the style of the original battleship. The performance lasts about three-quarters of an hour, and curing that time Captain Blondell has no rest nor touches bottom. McArce Released on Rond. Charles E. McAree, of 1113 Southeastern avenue, who is under arrest charged with the murder of Ralph Sample, was bound over to the grand jury yesterday from Tollce Court and then released upon bond of The evidence showed that Sample was drunk and had been the aggressor. It was stated by Dr. Wynn. who made the autopsy, that the blade of the knife with which McAree struck Sample penetrated the skull about one inch and was the diroec cause of his death. McAree taid he did not know that he had struck Sample. The bond of $1, 0 to was made in view of the fact that no premeditated malice was apparent. Dun lap's Celebrated Hats At Seaton's Hat Store.

HONOR is a treruen Jous word when you apply it to paint making. It describes the whole rane of difference between the highest cla of true paints and the unworthy make-believe mixtures that look fairly well when first put on, but do not endure, because trre virtue is not in them. Avoid all risks by insisting upon the honor-made paints known as STEAMBOAT COLORS. Fair-minded painters will advise you to specify them when you contract for painting. A.
