The City Council of Peru will proceed against the strawooard-works of Wabash, which empties its refuse into the Wabash river, following a similar line to that pursued against the straw board-works at Noblesville, wherein the Supreme Court held that a nuisance was maintained. Peru depends upon iwmter from the river for domestic uses, and it ia claimed that the refuse irym the strawboardworks renders it unhealthy. During a severe wind storm after nightfall, at Ft.

Mrs. Emma Graves, who was severely burned by an explosion of gasoline at her home, 317 North New Jersey street, yesterday afternoon, died at 4:30 o’clock this morning, alter a night of great suffering. She was the daughter of Michael Sells, who is now absent on a trip to California; and was the wife of T. 8. Graves, of the firm of M. Sells & Co., stock-yards. Mrs. Graves was a member of the Central Christian church ohoir. The funeral services will be held at that church either Sunday or Monday, the time depending upon the arrival of relatives.

Mrs. Graves had been a member of the Central church choir for many years, and would have appeared there next Sunday as a soloist as usual and in the Easter program, but for this accident. It appears that Mrs. Graves sacrificed herself to save another. A four-vear-old lad. a relative of the family, was visiting ig the house. When the gasoline ignited the boy was iu the room and the flames were surrounding him. Running to him, Mrs. Graves seized him. lifted him above the flumes and carried him through the fire to safety. in going through the flames Mrs. Graves’s clothing caught fire and the result is known. ^ • UNABLE TO GET BOOKS.

What the Attendants and Librarian Say—The City Library.

The Amounts Placed On tho Tax Duplicate For Thirteen Years— The Hate by the fflOO and Amounts To Be Collected.

Sheriff Emmett yesterday served on Edward Gallop executor of the will oi W. p. Gallup, legal notice that the county auditor, under the authority of the laws, would place upon the tax duplicate tor taxation, personal property of William P. Gallop, which haa been omitted since Una. The notice asserted that the omitted property consisted of connty and township bonds and other bonds, notes, mortgages, claims, dues, demands and other crediu, money in hand or on deposit in bank. The list of amounts placed on tbe duplicate for the thirteen years aggregates over three millions, but tbe amounts are approximate. Mr. Gallop has been cited to appear before Auditor Taggart, Saturday next, and show cause why the amounts should not be placed lor taxation. The list of the thirteen years is as follows.

People who use the public library com plain that they are sometimes obliged to stand for an hoar before they are waited upon. Saturday evening about8o’clock adeadlock occurred and lasted until the hour for closing the library. Many people who would like to have taken a book from the library felt that it was hopeless to try, and left without getting what they wanted. Miss Browning, the librarian, says that the fault lies largely with the people who wait until Saturday evening to get books from the library. Four attendants are not enough, nor would ten attendants be enough, to take care of the tush of people fora few hours on Saturday evening, she says. She can not find young men who are willing to come into the library and work for a few hours each week. The only remedy that Miss Browning suggested was that the people that could come should come on other nights during the week. Rnllroad Men's Meetings. The Indianapolis Association ot Railway Superintendents met to-day at*the Union Station. The lollowing officers were elected for the year: President—F. G. Darlington, of the Pennsylvania. Vice-President-G. W. Bender, of the Big Four. Secretary and Treasurer—George B. Staats, of tbe Indianapolis & Vincennes. The Indiana Car Service Association also met and transacted routine business.

To Determine tbe Question ot City Incorporation—Argrnments. The citizens of West Indianapolis will vote to-morrow to decide whether or not they shall incorporate their town as a city. Up to within a day or two there haa been little interest, and the indications were that lew voters would take the, trouble to go to the polls, but the near approach of election day has vivified matters, and both sides have workers in the field day and night. It is agreed that had the vote been taken on March 5, as originally intended. West Indianapolis would have had a city government, bat during the time that has elapsed since then the opponents say they have developed objections to a city government, or rather, to a change from the present system, that were not at first apparent The arguments in favor of the higher system are that a city government would give these people better representation than a town system, and would not be more expensive; that a mayor constitutes a responsible head of government that is lacking in a town system; that while the latter may suffice for places of 2,000 population or less, it is deficient for a community of over 6.000 people, and that it has been proved withm the last two or three years that a town system has been inadequate and detrimental to the last growing and enterprising suburb, and has at times permitted the lawless element to flonrish. Those who are not in favor ot a change from the present form of government were first moved to opposition by the claim that the agitation for a city government was started and has been led by the chief politicians of the suburb, who, it is said, want more offices to fill, and more power and patronage. They

■mill pledges to tne contrary for candidates, who have not only not been nominated yet, but have not been talked o:, and that even if such were possible, the pledge would hold good only for the first elected officers of the city, and would not bind their successors; that while the increased number of elective officers may be willing to accept lower salaries than the present ones in order that the be increased, ei

a city government provision is made for an increase of the police force and the fire department and tor the appointment of street com-

ment and tor the appointment of street commissioners and Clerks of the various departments; that while the citizens of the suburb now have free delivery of mail snch might be taken away should the suburb by aspiring to city airs show a spirit ot unfriendliness or rivalry to Indianapolis ^nd not be able at once to secure an independent delivery; that no man can be found who will assume the responsibilities of tbe mayoralty for $100 a year as claimed by tbe agitators for a change; that

vhich will help t which the “antis” say is sore to follow a change ot government and that contracts that are now made by various corporations with the "town” of West Indianapolis will not hold good as between the corporations and “city” ot West Indianapolis, Tbe latter objection is made more particularly with reference to the Indianapolis Gas Company, which, it is taken for granted, will raise the rates should a new contract be made. Asked about this matter,the company’s officers said they had not thought of it and could not express an opinion. Its attorneys. Winter & Elam, said the matter had not been brought to their notice by the company, and as they were not familiar with the precise wording oi the present contract they could not express an opinion. Van Vorhis & Spencer, the town’s attorneys, could not give ah opinion either in the absence of the contract. They recalled that in some of the contracts with corporations provision waa made in case the suburb was annexed to the city, but they were not able to eay whether tbe contingency of the town becoming a city had been anticipated. Those in favor of the new government have tbe word of Postmaster Sahm that, so far as he Is concerned, free delivery of mail will not be taken irom tbe people of the suburb in eaee they decide to put on ety clothes, and they sav that other objections of the “antis” similarly have no force. As to gas rates the city supporters say the city government would have as much right to nass an ordinance lowering the prices as tbe gas company would have to advance rates. Both sides declare that the vote will be close and the majority small. . Troubles of the Ainsworths. Nellie Ainsworth and Lee Ainsworth were arrested last night.

Captain Campbell went to the house and found the woman, who said that her husband had abased hsr and she did not want to go with him. From the statements made at the house Captain Campbell determined to arrest both. The woman says that last December she advertised in a matrimonial
