Frnlt and Wheat Prospects. Special to The Indianapolis News. Liberty, Ind., March 31.—Notwithstanding the doleful prophecies of the past few months of a total failure of the wheat, hay and clover crops, the pleasant weather of the past few days shows the wheat fields green, the grass and clover coming up nicely and fields of these products are looking very promising. In the way of fruit, old friut raisers In southeastern Indiana say, the prospect for a large crop of apples, pears and berries this year Is fully gs good, if not much better, than It was this time last year, and last year was the largest fruit yield ever known in this part of the State.

A delegation of South West-street prop-erty-owners lined the wall of the Council chamber last night. The Council, however, passed the ordinance to pave West street, from Washington to South, by a unanimous vote of the nineteen members present. Reference was made to the fact that West street was paved both below and above the unpaved strip. Mr. Cooper, of the Republicans, said that it was the plan of the administration to pave the central mile square, and he did not believe the Council should encourage other remonstrators In this mile by voting against this ordinance for West street Mr. Montgomery, of the Democrats, said that Mr. Cooper’s position w'as web taken, for already his committee of streets and alleys had heard from Liberty street and Kentucky avenue. The ordinance to keep gates from standing outward over the sdewalk was also passed. It requires that gates so made as to swing outward must have some device for closing them automatically. It differs from a previous ordinance net sgned by the mayor in not altogether prohibiting gates that swing outward. Messrs. Cooper and Montgomery said that the supposition that the previous ordinance would go into effect had produced a marked Improvement In their parts of the city, north and south. The vote was 16 to 3. Sixty days’ time Is given to comply with the ordinance, and .ten days' notice must be given before prosecution. Violations or the ordinance are subject to a penalty not exceeding $25.

Rescue Mission and Home.

The workers and friends of the Rescue Mission are elated over the accession to their regular working force of Mrs. Z. P. Jaynes, who comes to them from Delaware, O. She Is a woman of splendid qualifications and large experience In Industrial, rescue and missionary work, and Is proving a valuable assistant tq. Mr. Wheeler In the great work he has undertaken. This work Is developing so rapidly, and the possibilities are so great, that the securing of the services of such a competent and well-equipped woman as Mre. Jaynes to assist In this work is regarded as providential by those carrying the responsibilities. This work was incorporated in October, 1895. February 1, 1896, Mr. Wheeler gave up & position he has held for twenty-six years, and is now giving his whole time to this work. The board of trustees and officers are: President, W. H. Roll; treasurer, H. H. Hanna; trustees, G. A. Carstensen, H. A. Buchtel, M. L. Haines, J. A. Rondthaler, W. S. Hubbard, George W. Snyder, W. V. Wheeler; superintendent of rescue work, W. V. Wheeler; assistant and manager of rescue home, Mrs. W. V. Wheeler; matron and missionary, Mrs. Z. P. Jaynes; assistant matron in charge of the home, Mrs.

N. E. Woodruff.

Eight regular services are held each week-Sunday, Tuesday, Friday and Saturday nights. Revival services are held at the mission rooms, at South and Pennsylvania streets. Sunday services are held at City Hospital from 2 to 4 p. m.. and on Thursdays services are held at the work-house from 8 to 3:45 p. m. The Police Court each morning Is visited, and such assistance rendered to the erring as Is practical and possible. The field for missionary effort is a large one, and great good is being accomplished in the visiting among the sick, poor and discouraged. The work of the Mission grows in interest and Influence and effectiveness as it grows older. Nearly 800 souls, whose names are recorded, have knelt at the altar and declared their purpose to live and walk In the better way. A Jubilee meeting will soon be held over the 800 Mission converts. For nearly two years and a half since this work started there has been one continuous revival, and the

stantial. The testimony of converts, many of them saved from the depths of sin, coming, as many have, from the prisons of our city and State, gutters, barrelhouses and brothels, given with such pathos, welling up from grateful hearts, as they tell of their great deliverance, make these services Intensely Interesting and awakens a desire in those who hear to be more patient and earnest in

FIRST GAME OF THE SEASON

TWO NINES FORMED OF THE DIA N \POLLS PLAYERS.

IN-

Good Work Done Ry the Men In Each Team—Everhart Knocks Ont Leeds —Dates For Race Meetluga—A Billiard Match.

There was a lively six-toning ball game at the park yesterday afternoon. The pleasant weather induced Manager "Watkins to divide the members of the club Into two teams and let them get dowm to work In regulation style. About 500 of tha faithful went out to see the boys practice. The playing of the new men was watched closely, and every one of them came up to expectations. At the end of the sixth inning the score was 4 to 2 In favor of the legular team. George Cross was in the box for the regulars, and gave his fielders plenty of work behind him. He simply tossed the balls up and let the colts have a chance to do a little stick work. Wiemer and Monroe each pitched three innings for the colts. Both had plenty of steam, and used good headwork In their delivery. The work of these men so far has been encouraging. Btlly Connor played left field and made a favorable impression. He covered much ground and took care of everything that came his way. He also showed to excellent advantage at the bat. He has an easy position at the plate, which denoted a natural hitter, and he steps into a ball In a way that some older players would do well- to study. McCormick made a hit at third base. His work was fast, both In fielding and throwing, and the way in which he snaps the ball to second or first-base Is a decided contrast to what was seen on the local field last season. Wood and Grim did the catching, while Butler, the other back-stop, played second base for the Colts and did well. He was to be behind the bat In the game this afternoon. Stewart’s second base play was also a feature, and os an earnest of what la to come was acceptable. Pitcher Irwin, who played right field for the colts, made a sensational throw from the score board to third base, which raised £l cheer. In fact, there was an enthusiasm about the game which put every one In a good humor, and the cranks who enjoyed the treat, were all talking pennant last night. If there la a weak spot In the team it has not yet developed, non has there been any sign of a break anywhere down the line. Frank .otz and Johnny McCarthy got to the grounds just about the time the game started and worked out at the lower end of the field. Neither had yet signed his contract, and so did not play In the game. These men were expected to coma to terms to-day, and with them In line the make-up of the team Will be complete. The first regular exhibition game of the season was played this afternoon with the Herancourts, a strong semi-professional team. Monroe, Wiemer and Dammann did the pitching and Butler took a turn behind the bat.

RACE MEETINGS.

In

Harness Events To Take Place

Angast—The Running Races.

The Indianapolis Driving Club last night decided on the dates for the season’s racing events. The big event of the year will be the trotting and pacing meeting from August 17 to 22, inclusive. Purses aggregating $40,000 will be hung up. Indianapolis Is now a member of the Grand Circuit, which is composed of Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit and Ft. Wayne, and the best horses in the country will be seen here this season. The club had about determined not to give a harness meeting this season, but the withdrawal of Rochester and Buffalo from the Grand Circuit left an opening which was too good to miss, and the club determined to make one more effort to make Indianapolis one of the great trot-

ting centers of the country.

The running meeting Will be held the lost week In May. Purses aggregating $10,(100 will be distributed among the gallopers. This meeting Is largely in the nature of an experiment, but it is believed that the people will take kindly to the bang tails. The running circuit Is composed of Terre Haute, Indianapolis, Elkhart, Toledo, Saginaw and Bay City. There will be one week’s racing in each town, maktog In all a six-weeks’ season. It is thought that a number of well known horsemen can be Induced to send their horses over this circuit, as the purses will compare very favorably with thoke hung up on some of the older tracks. The horses are now gradually working north, and a number of those which have been w.ntering at New Orleans and are now running at Birmingham and Little Rock will be seen

here.

Bicycle Larceny. The bicycle larceny season has opened. It was reported to the police that two bicycles were takera from in front of 286 Broadway about 9 o’clock last nightone belonging to Frank Relsner, of 284 North West street, and one to Albert H. Brant, of 182 East McCarty street. William Law, of 507 North Alabama street, left his wheel In front of the City Library last night, and on coming out, about 8:45 o’clock, found that it was gone. The Rev. T. C. Brown, of the Friends’ church, also missed his bicycle from his home, 85 Morrison street, from which it was taken either Sunday or Monday morning.

was carried to the drssstog-RMJn and physicians called. ^ After forty minutes of anxious waiting word was sent out that the fighter was alowly Improving, and would shortly be able to leave the club. The hchaefer-Ivee-Garnler Match. New York, March 3L—The triangular billiard match between Jacob Schaefer, Frank Ives and Albert Gamier for a purse of $5,000, opened last night with a game between Schaefer and Gamier. The "Wizard” clearly outplayed his opponent, and won by a score of 600 to 197. It is twenty years since Gamier has been in this country, and be has aged greatly to that time. He was nervous last night, and did not play up to his usual standard. The conditions which govern are different than those under which championship matches have been played dur.ng the last five years. The old game at the fourteen-inch balk line has been done away with, and the piesent match Is played at an eigMteeninch balk line. The match will continue every night this week. Sporting Notea. Charles Ward, the wrestler, is In the city trying to -arrange a match with Herb Hale. The base-bail season was opened in Franklin last Saturday afternoon with a game between the college team and a selected team from the town. The game was exciting from start to finish. The college boys won by a score of 22 to 2U. Franklin wiil probably have a good team in the field this spring. Among the Jeffersonville players now under contract in various cities are Jack Gleason. Houston, Tex.; Pearl Morgan, Cairo, 111.; Max Wilson and Jim Thorpe, Owensboro, Ky.; George Brady, Hopkinsville. Ky.; Lentz Friend, Bowling Green. Ky.; Jack Carroll. Georgetown, Ky.; Chattel Carl, New Orleans; Steven Friend, Adrian, Mich.; Albert Elhh, manager, Washington, Ind. Melvin O. Derails, of Denver. Friday afternoon rode a mite unpaced on the Montclair straightaway course In 1:11 3-5. It was the . fastest time ever made on a wheel. The wind was at his back, blowing at the rate of nearly fifty miles an hour. The best previous straightaway record was 1:26, made by John Green, of Cheyenne. For personal reasons Dennis’s time was not made public at the time the feat was accomplished. The New York Recorder, in Its Issue of March 29, prints In substance the story of the Indianapolis cycle path which was given in The News two weeks ago. It a’so reproduces the pictures of the route along the tow path and Fall creek, which were printed In The News. The Recorder, ini commenting on the path, says that Indianapolis will have a path which will be the equal of any in the country, and unsurpassed in its scenic beauty. IRVINGTON LIGHT QUESTION. Vote To Be Taken On tke Question of Municipal Ownership.

THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.

The City and the ••Fanr-MHe” Extension. To the Editor of The Indiana poll* News: There seems to be no definite Idea among a large majority of our citizens who are fighting the Sunday base-ball project, of what authority is vested In our city and county official*. We hear It said that the city has jurisdiction over ail .territory within four miles of the corporation line, for the purpose of enforcing Btate laws and certain ordinances. Thia is generally accepted aa the answer to the question concerning municipal authority. Others say that the sheriff is the proper officer to enforce the State laws at all places within the county outside of the city limits, and they cite the statute defining his duties am conservator of the peace within the county. It should b« understood. In the first place, that by provision of our city charter, the Common Council Is given the power to enact ordinances "to preserve peace and good order, prevent vice and Immorality,” etc., and for this purpose, to-wit: Prejierving peace and good order, and preventing vice and Immorality, the city Is given Jurisdiction for four miles from Its

limits.

Section 1,709, R. s.. ’94, provides that a city can not by ordinance, make punishable any act which Is already made a public offense by statute. Any such ordinances are declared null and void, and all prosecutions for such offenses must be under the State law. Section 2,087, R. S.. '94, makes It a misdemeanor to play base-ball on Sunday, where any fee is charged, or where any reward or prize, or profit, or article of value Is depending upon the result of such

game.

These two sections make inoperative the ordinance of our Common Council prohibiting certain games on Sunday, In so far

aa it refers to base-ball.

A policeman or patrolman Is a State officer, with the same powers aa a. constable, except in relation to the service of civil process. He Is restricted, however, to a territory within the city, except In certain cases. It has been heretofore gravely doubted whether, even with the four-mile limit clause, a policeman could make a legal arrest outside of t|ie city for a violation of an ordinance or a'State law. It was this doubt which led to the amendment of Section 100 of the charter of Indianapolis by the Legislature of 1896. This section originally provided that the Board of Public Safety should have power, on application of any person or corporation, if deemed expedient, to appoint regular or special patrolmen to do special duty at any place within the city, cn the applicant paying the rate for such special detail as is paid the regular members of the police force; and that such board should have power, when deemed expedient, to make such detail without application or payment of per diem. Such section further provided that BL.. men during the special duty, sho'

children, 32,000 allm my and $190 a year for the support of each child. Jitouie Hottert says that Thomas Hotbert has kicked her out of ted and abused and slapped her on numerous occasions. Georgia Fowler charges James Fowler with bang an habitual drunkard, and aaya he refused to support her. Sayah E. Miller claims that John M. Miller has threatened to kill her. and that recently he oven went so far «* to draw a revolver ot} her; also, that he is an habitual drunkard. STATE BENEVOLENT liGTITUTIOliS. Law Gavernlngr Theta* Cotameiitied By the Board of Mlate Charities. The forthcoming annual report of the Board of State Charities, in discussing the law- passed >by the last Legislature providing for the government of the State benevolent instituttor*. will say, to pari: "The moat salutary and itgnlflcant act of the Legislature of 1896 relating to the benevolent tostltutlona of the State was a measure for the tetter government and control of the four hospitals for the Insane. the Institute for the Blind and the Institution for the Education of the Deaf. ! "The enactment of this law' is regard'd by the Board of State Charities as one of : the most Important steps ever taken la Indiana to elevate our public instttullona j above the control or influence of partisanship. Following its going Into effect, appointments of boards of control under its ' provisions were made by the Governor ; and the benevolent Institutions embraced i in Its operation have gone on quietly and ‘ prosperously in their work, free from the confusion and demoralization which in 1 past years would have followed a change in the political majority of the Legislature. The almost universal approval of this law proves that it was is accord with public sentiment.

the advisability of asking for blda on water and light plants. The issue next Tuesday will be as to whether blda on an electric light plant alone shall be taken, and whether the plant should be owned by the town or by a private .corporation. The Commercial Club and a strong element has been advocating municipal ownership and collecting statistics, to show that the plant can be put In for about $10,000; that the revenue from private lights would be almost sufficient to pay Che expense of carrying and operating the plant, thus securing street light at a nominal cost. The opposition has been on the score that the town debt might be increased. A private company is in process of formation, some of the moving spirits In which suggest that the plant, when once constructed, be given to the town to own and operate. One suggestion is that the Indianapolis Light and Power Company be asked to extend its lines to Irvington. They have already been extended nearly to Tuxedo. The company says that It will build Its line to Irvington and supply incandescent lights there for residences at a minimum of 15 cents

the clause in the first part of the section, “at any place within such city.” The amended section clearly empowers the Board of Public Safety to appoint policemen to do special duty at any place within the county, and immediately on such appointment the jurisdiction of such officers is so extended, with no change in their duties. Among their duties enumerated in the statute, are that they shall be conservators of the peace in such city, and shall arrest without process all persons who within view commit any crime or misdemeanor, contrary to the statutes of the State, or ordinances of the city. By statute It is the duty of the mayor to cause the ordinances of the city and the laws of the State to be executed and enforced. It is also set out, “and he shall be responsible for the good order and efficient government of the city." A plain construction of this section, with others, gives the mayor control of the Board of Public Safety, and through it of the superintendent of police and the police force. While the law provides that the sheriff shall be a conservator of the peace within the county, arrest persona committing misdemeanors, etc., yet so far as the territory lying within four miles of our city limits is concerned, that by statute is placed under the more direct supervision

Everhart Lays Him Low

Fifteen Stiff Rounds.

Maspeth, N. Y., March 31.—The twenty-flve-round battle between Jack Everhart and Horace Leeds, which was scheduled to come off last February at El Paso, Tex., was decided last night at the Empire Athletic Club. The fight resulted in a victory for Everhart, who knocked out his opponent In the fifteenth round. Leeds was badly winded when the end came. For thirty minutes after he had went down he was unconscious, and it

The Home, which was opened for women snd girls January i, is doing a noble work for those who are willing and need the shelter, protection, encouragement and love of a Christian home and counsel and advice of motherly women. The Home contains ten single beds, and these are about all occupied. A larger home is already needed. The mission room is entirely too small to accommodate the crowds that come. It is believed that a hail, holding a thousand people, would be crowded on Sunday night by non-church-goers. The present room would seat many more people if It were seated with chairs. The Home needs chairs, dressers, blankets, sheets, pillows, women’s clothing, look-ing-glasses. pictures and mottoes for the walls. Any of these, or supplies for the table, would be thankfully received, as the Home Is supported by the offerings of the people. Those desiring to pay their subscriptions'or make money contributions may make checks payable to H. H. Hanna, treasurer, and send them to W. H. Roll, president, 473 North Pennsylvania street.

The men were evenly matched, and both wanted to fight. Everhart was a slight favorite in the betting, but Leeds had enough friends to make the event exciting. Leeds waa the taller and had the longer reach. There was a little preliminary sparring to the first round. Then there was a rapid exchange of blows in which honors were easy. In the second round each man used his left hand repeatedly, and Leeds had a shade the best of it The next round it was give and take all the way through. Leeds doing most of the giving. The fighting in the fourth round was not nearly so fast. Both men were playing for wind, and several clinches occurred. Leeds opened the fifth round with a good smash on Everhart’s face, but slipped and fell In getting away. Just as the gong sounded he smashed Everhart on the chin, and it looked as If he had his man going. Leeds was forcing the fighting, and in the sixth hammered Everhart all over the ring, scoring repeatedly on the face and body. He changed his tactics In the next round, and began playing for his opponent's body. Everhart was weakening rapidly, and It looked oiue for him at the close of the eighth round. The conditions did not Improve during tbs next round. Everhart tried to save himself by hugging his opponent, but Leeds threw him off and kept punching him In the face and stomach. In the tenth Everhart eurprised Leeds by sending In five stiff

Mrs. Emma P. Ewing, who recently gavi lectures on cooking at the Propylaeum, has been engaged by the Propylaeum directors to take charge of the School of Household Science that has been agreed upon. At a called meeting of the directors of the Propylaeum last evening, Mrs. Bewail, president, presented the contract which had been signed by Mrs. Ewing. She is to get $5,000 for fitttog up the school and for an eight months’ course, beginning eiext October, but this salary' is conditional upon her raising that sum from manufacturers of the city. Manufacturers who subscribe will have their goods used by Mrs. Ewing in the school, and they will be advertised as much ns possible. Besides this, Mrs. Ewing agrees to give lectures in adjacent cities and towns, the proceeds of which will go to the Propylaeum, which will get, besides, the amount received for all articles made *,n the school. Cookery, household work, the work of the nursery maid and the work of all departments of the house will be taught. There will also be a training school, where teachers will be taught how to Instruct In these departments.

For the purpose of preserving peace and good order, preventing vice and immorality In the commission of certain misdemeanors, the statute says the city shall have Jurisdiction for four miles from its limits. In other words, the peace and quietude of this extra four miles of territory is intrusted to the city government. Citizens within that limit have a right to expect; nay, demand, protection at the hands of our municipality, from the violation of State laws, as well as ordinances enacted to secure peace and good order

Leeds was a little tlje stronger in the next round, and was going after Everhart in a drive when the gong sounded. The battle came to a suddem stop In the fifteenth round. The men had only been at It one minute when Everhart swung his left and landed square on Leeds’s chin. Leeds went down like a log. Referee Hurst counted him out amid the greatest excitement.

Empire Theater—“Zero.” The audiences that filled the Empire Theater to see “Zero” yesterday afternoon and last night included many women. The piece is spectacular to a way, with two striking scenes, and InctdentsJly there is a slight story connected with it, but the chief Interest of the performance Is In the specialties. There are several dances and “turns” by teams which make the audience laugh. The best acts are those of Bryant and Cleaver; Valdo, the Instrumental man, who gives a novel performance, and Hodges and Lauchmere, a colored man and woman, whose ipeelajty is an unusually clover one. Miss M. Florence Edwards gave a pretty and picturesque dance to front of a lens light which made much of a hit. The “show” is one of attractive features, but in the Interests of many “old-timers” who have been going to see vaudeville performances for years. It is suggested that the next time the good ship ‘‘Zero” goes to the north pole with Charles Banks on board It leave him there. It Is one of the real hardships of this life-to hear this man try to sing "Poor Old Maid” once or twice a year, and he has been doing it since the war. The company will remain all week., with matinees every day. Barleaqae at the Park. Something, called for want of some other name, “A Pack of Cards," given at the Park Theater last night, has the usual strained effort at something witty In the lines and much extravagant action. There is singing and dancing, some of it very good, much of it noisy. The combination is led by Florence Miller, a burlesquer not new to the stage. Among the chief performers is Saharet, an Australian danseuse, who Is very pretty and graceful The chief comedy parts are played by Lew Carroll and Sam Collins. Specialties are crowded in by Gordon and Link, whose talk Is as stupid as their music is gotd. There Is some attempt at spectacular display—not much.

Life,

Liberty and the Puraatt of Hwppinees. To the Editor of The IndlsnspoUs News: I feel very thankful to The News to come out on this question of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as It has sines the 23d, or since the Chandler & Taylor

riot.

It has always seemed to me that unions of the trades are makihg things worse for the manufacturer and employes, or laboring man, instead of bettering our condition. To illustrate, those men quit work last May for bigger wages (Including poor with efficient or expert men). Suppose every working man in the United States belonged to those unions, there would be jus’ as many out of employment as there are now. The Evansville Tribune hits the nail on the head when it says the trouble with the union men is, they assume that a man not a member of a union is not a working man, and I suppose then they do not pay about $15 to be Initiated Into a lodge and then pay about 40 cents a month to help strikes and strikers through until they gain their point I do hope that our legislators or our Government, our lawyers and the Judges, will get their eyes and ears wider open on this subject, and not have the shams and disgrace of escorting men through a city to their place of Industry by the police, the strong arm of the law that grants every man life, liberty and the pureult of happiness. Lut we can not have work for every man as faat as he needs It in this country. Never again as long as 250,000 souls come every year, as they have now these many years. But 1 see I am getting UUs into politics, so I will close, hoping The News will follow In the grand stand for the working man It haa started out on. There are fully half, Jf not more, of the workingmen that are not In unions. But we expect life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness all the same. A NON-UNION BUT WORKING MAN.
