Tangible Evidence that Oil and Gas r Belt* May be United. [Spsclat to Th« Indianapolis New*.] MUNCIE, Ind., September 7—Another effort Is being made to construct the Interurban traction line between Muncie. Dunkirk and Hartford City. This is the Muncie Interurban line, commonly known as the Brownell line. Local capitalists, A. L. Johnson, W. E. Hitchcock and other men of c onsiderable wealth, have taken an Interest In the project, and In company with F. G. Brownell, the promoter, took a trip over the proposed routs this week, letters were shown from an Eastern millionaire who agrees to build the road and torn it over to the stockholders In return for a stipulated amount of cash and bonds. W. ft. Cooley, of Hartford City. Is another Indiana man Interested In the enterprise. Mr. Hitchcock Is president of the Delaware County National Bank, of this city, and Mr. Johnson is presumed to be Muncie'* wealthiest resident. For the first time in the history of the scheme there seems to be tangible wealth back of a project to unite the oil and gas belts by electric line. Mr. Brownell has obtained most of the right-of-way. and is under a bond of 81.000 to construct the road. The proposed rout* to from Muncie through Koyarton, Mhideler and Eaton, In Delaware county.

It is estimated that It will take between fffiO.OUti and (WO.uOO In cash to construct and equip the road fuity. With Hartford City as a terminal, the road will be thirty-one miles in length. The condition on which the Eastern capitalists will build the road ts that Muncie and Hartford-City people subscribe in cash for a large block of the stock, and that bonds for the remainder be floated.

The Wayne County Council Rigidly Reduces Expenses. [Special to The Indianapolis News ] RICHMOND. Ind., Septemlber 7.—The County Council of Wayne county adjourned yesterday after making appropriations for expenses In 1901, aggregating about $86,000, Many of the estimates were cut down and r some spilt in two. The council refused to make an appropriation for apprehending fugitive criminal*. The sheriff asked for 8300 for this purse, but not a penny waa granted. In one of the county offices the appropriation last year for the purchase of supplies was so small that it was not sufficient to purchase the records necessary to carry on the work. An increase was refused, and In consequence a portion of the records for the past year have been kept on the ’'fly’* pages of old records. Matthews Bags Another Factory.

Frankfort Teachers Docline to Assume the Responsibility. [■postal to Tha Indianapolis News.] FRANKFORT. Ind.. September 7.— There to trouble brewing hero between the teacher* in the city schools and the city board of health. A few months ago Frankfort was threatened with an epidemic of smallpox, and the Board of Health Issued orders that no scholar should be admitted to the public schools this fall unless able to "present satisfactory evidences of successful vaccination." This caused considerable discussion. many people of limited means claiming It to be an unjust order, inasmuch as the physicians charged for the
vaccination.
Many also openly declared that they would not obey the order, claiming It to he Illegal. There will undoubtedly be trouble on this score when the schools open next Monday. <ae the Board of Health refuses to rescind the order. The latest storm cloud, however, is between the teachers and the Health Board. The tatter defined “satisfactory evidences of successful vaccination" as moaning the a Witty to show a good scar. Certificates of vaccination were not Issued by the physicians, ami the teachers have been informed that they must examine their pupils' arms, and decide on the scar question. This the teachers will not do. saying that they will not take the responsibility of deciding whether a scar to caused by "successful vaccination.” or by some other cause. The sentiment of the public ts almost unanimously with the teachers. and a health officer said, last night, that the question would, in his opinion, have to be referred back to the Board of Health. If this is done It means a victory for tha teachers, for every pupil vaccinated will have to be personally examined by a physician and ccrUflcates issued. No pupil will be admitted to. school without the certificate. The time

The snapper boys are causing a new trouble, for the reason that they fear they will not be paid for work until new glass is finished. In this event, they will have to wait for some weeks for their money. The management of the Charles Boldt glass factory has issued orders that all boys under sixteen years of age who are employed during the present season must have their ages sworn to by their parents. The company claims this will be necessary because of prosecutions In previous years under the child labor law. A similar step will probably be taken by other concerns where boys in large numbers are employed. The glass factories think there will not be a "famine” of boy help this year. T^he number of men idle in the Iron and other trades makes it necessary In many Instances for the sons of families to help earn the living. UNCERTAIN IN OPENING.

J. Wood Wilson, of Wilson & McCulloch, which firm operates two fruitjar factories at Falrmount, one at Converse and one at Marion, says that so far the wage committees of the manufacturers and the American Flint Glass Workers’ Union have been unable to come to an agreement, and that the prospects are not flattering for an early settlement.

FIFTEEN THOUSAND IN ONE DAY AT SHELBYVILLE. Jay B Carried Off the 2:20 PaceNo Gambling Allowed at tbo
Fair Grounds.
[Special to The Indianapolis Newa] SHELBYVILLE, Ind.. September 7.— It is a sight worth witnessing to see the people come to the Shelby county fair. There are nine free gravel roads that lead direct Into the city. These tap thickly-populated sections of the county. At daylight the rural citizens start for the fair. By 7 o’clock the arrival* amount to a procession, and this Is. kept, up for hours. As many as 15.000 people crowd Into the grounds in a day. There was a slight misgiving on Tuesday that the attendance might fall short. This has been the rule this year at the county and district fairs, but it is not so here. On Wednesday the ticket receipts were slightly in excess of the same receipts a year ago, and on Thursday they were considerably larger. The amphitheater on these grounds holds 2,600 people, it being the largest on any half-mile track in the State. Thursday the attendance filled this stand. And then the people lined the railing clear around to the eighth. Over in the shade, on the backstretch, was another unbroken line down to the quarter pole. . . Yesterday and to-day the three banks of Shelbyville closed their doors at 11 o clock for the day, and at noon almost every dry goods and grocery store closed
its doors until 5 o’clock.
The races Thursday afternoon were watched by a multitude of people. Tne first event was the 2.23 trot. Jack B. an Indianapolis horse, owned by Frank Mann, won in three straight heats, the time being elow-2:33, 2:36*. 2:28. Mann
was behind his horse.
The 2:20 pace was contested by five good horses, five heats being required to decide the battle. Each of the heats w-as a race from start to finish. Guy Tranby, a Shelby county horse, won the first heat In 2:lHi. Jay B. owned by Amos Scott, of Lebanon, won the second and third heats in i:\9\i and Baron B. owned by Ham Downing, of Edinburg, set sail to win out, and captured the fourth heat, the time bemg 2:17*. Jay B, however, was strong enough for a bruising finish,
and won the fifth heat in 2:20H-
There is wide absence this .year of the petty gamblers who always follow large crowds. Not a single shell-man has been reported. Similar games abound In Shelbyville. No attempt Is being made to suppress the gambling in the city, but
nothing ts permitted on the grounds.
Shelby county Is never slow on agricultural products, the county being one of the best In the State In this respect.
A SURPLUS OF MONEY.
Cancellation of Stock & Matter of Self-Protection. [Special to Tbe Indianapolis Newa] NEWCASTLE, Ind., September 7.-The Henry County Building and I.oan Association has adopted radical measures to reduce the surplus of 120,000 which the directors have been unable to loan. After the seml-aunual dividend is declared, October L all stock Issued five years ago and more will be called in and canceled. This will wipe out the surplus and save the association 81.600 per annum in dividends on money that to not earning a dollar. This Is the first time sines the organization of the association, twelve years ago, that it has been found necessary to cancel stock, but the absence of a demand for loans requires this action by the directors.
