BOWLING NOTES.
The Ko-We-Bas and North Sldee bowled their games postponed from last week, last night. The Ko-We-Bas have rarely felt ^better, and they took five games from tbe North Sides by sGcklng up high acorea In every one of the contests The Ko-We-Bas lost their first game, notwithstanding they started off With a 204 score Burton was the star performer, with an average of 215 2-3. The alley committee of the State meet association will meet to-night to decide on the alleys to be used. It was thought a few days ago that It might not be possible to get the Marlon Club alleys for the games, but the committee believes now that these alleys will be secured, and It is more than gratified as a result. It is said that the majority of the Marion Club directors are In favor of allowing the alleys to be used. The ten-game match between Ben Brown and Lee Graff, last night, on the City Club alleys, was one of the most exciting matches of the kind ever seen In this city. The men stayed close together from start to finish, and there was never such a difference between them that one game could easily have reversed the positions Graff won by saving bis best score. 236. until the last game.

There ie a little town down in southern Ohio which has been made famous by a trotting horse. It nestles among the hills of Warren county, and is called Lebanon Some years ago that Irrepressible Kentuckian, Col Mike Bowerman. of Lexington, appeared at Richmond, Ind , with a handsome four-j ear-old atalUon, called Moquette, and his appearance created a sensation The stallion trotted a mile in 2.10, at the time a world s record for a four-year-old trotter, and the performance startled the turf world
It Is extremely doubtful If a finer looking trotter was ever seen on the turf than Moquette A rich seal brown In color, upheaded, stjlish, and commanding in appearance, he simply overshadowed all other stallions in looks and actions Hts gait was perfect, and as one prominent horseman remarked. “He Is the >ardstick by which all other horses are measured ” The horse was owned by Drake Bros, of Lebanon, O, who were practically unkno.wn factors In trotting affairs, and the

performance of Moquette made their names familiar to all horsemen. After his performance at Richmond, Moquette was retired to the stud at Warren farm, near Lebanon, and during the past ten years he has made himself famous as a| sire of great racehorses i The fame of Moquette Is simply an illus-1 tratlon of the great popularity of the trotting horse, and proves conclusively that all the talk about the passing of the horse Is simply idle vaporlngs i

Another Week will Find Improved Streeta'in Good Shape—Unimproved Streets Must Wait.
Thirty teams are now at work cleaning the improved streets. They are all in the employ of the Marion County Construction Company, which got the street cleaning contract for 1902. By the last of next week. acOTrdlng to George W. Seibert, the head of the c6mpany, all of the improved streets wrlll be clean ’Work on them has already begun, but they are sol dirty that slow progress Is made. The construction company has had Its men working In Virginia avenue this week Those In charge say filth had accumulated along this thoroughfare until It was at least four inches deep near the curb. A wagon load wa« scraped up every twenty feet, they say. Kentucky avenue will be taken up next, and they say It is In even worse condition, and that there Is six Inches of hardened filth and debris at the curb The Construction company’s new sweepers will arrive the first of next week, and then the oru8ad,e against the dirt will bef ln in earnest The c<^pany has leased arns In South Merldlkn street and those formerly occupied by the Furnas company. They will have enough sweepers to keep the streets clean all the time. Seibert says The cleaning this week has extended from Sixteenth street to Washington In the cross-streets west of Meridian, he says, and these streets arq m presentable shape On account of there having been no effort to clean the streets In months, the work is necessarily slow.

Says Republicans Are Taking Lights from Democratic Districts. Members of the Democratic minority In the City Council are charging that the Republican city admlnl'stratlon Is trying to belittle them in the eyes of their constituents by removing electric lights from their wards, and, thereby, showing that the Democrats have no “pull” James Mori:^rIty, of the Tenth ward, the minority leader, is foremost In making the charges “At least twelve lights have been taken from South Side Democratic wards,’’ said he to-dhy. “We have watched and watched and we are sure none has been removed from a Republican ward We feel pretty sure that the lights taken from us are put In the Republican strongholds, where the votes that elected Bookwalter came from, but we can not get any proof They are too slick for that ■ “Th» Republican^ excuse themselves on the ground that the lights are more advantageous In the places they are removed to, and that thej. need the money, but that talk is ail bosh They ar^takIng particular pains to punish men^who have been at all prominent as Democratic workers Whenever there is a light in front of the home of one of these men, it is moved on down the street There was an illustration in Merrill street the other day.

THE
SULTAN .OF 8ULU MAKES HIT IN CHICAGO.
TIS FANTASTICALLY ABSURD
Our New Pacific Possessions Furnish the Indiana Humorist with an Admirable Theme.
[Special to Tha liwitanapolUi News ] CHICAGO, March 12—In spite of rain there was an overflowing audience in the Studebaker for the first production of “The Sultan of Sulu,” the Walthall-Aile comedy opera, or, more properly, musical comedy. The story of the comedy has been told It is fantastically absurd, of, course—in fact. Is more a succession of fantastic situations than a story of any coherent flow, situations such as a lively and sportive fancy might picture as possible from the contact of Western and far Eastern half civ ilization The Introduction of American mixed drinks to a Mohammedan community, the grotesquely perverted humors of divorce grotesquely applied to polygamous households—these are fruitful themes and measurably novel also Fantastic Humor. There Is broad, fantastic humor In the conceit of making a military Judge-ad-vocate out of a sour pld Yankee spinster, and broader humor In Investing her, as such, with grotesquely impossible judicial powers. As a whole, the conception is reasonably well worked out In the treatment, though that Is quite sure to be cut In some points and broadened fin others Even in Its first estate, the book abounds In witty lines, the point of the satire in most cases directed at ourselves and our social and political motives and customs The music of Mr Walthall and a few numbers written by H D Mann fit the book capitally, as a rule The music seems sometimes to be rather too much of one color

[Special to The Indianapolis News 1 RICHMOND, Ind, March 12-The munldpal lighting plant of this city, now almost ready for operation, has attracted the attontlon of numerous citle# because of Its exceptionally low rate*. Queries ore constantly coming to eity ofllclato to explain how Richmond can expect to realise a fair re!urn upon the Investment The officials are sincere In the belief that the Richmond plant, within a year from Its Installation, wlil be. on a profitable

It 1» equipped with the-most modficn electrical machinery of the ilttraaOng

“The plant Is Intended to furnish power lor light machinery, such as elevators.

It la Impossible to set forth at this time what the actual running expmvses of the plant will be for any given period. “Our superintendent wlil be paid a nalarj of $l,S00 a >ear. The chief electrician and engineer will receive about $1,400, the as'^istant engineer, $800, two firemen, each $660, two linemen, each Fuel will be Cheap. "The cost of fuel depends, of course, upon the condition of the market and to what extent our capacity is utilized. However. we will handle our fuel In a cheaper manner than any private concern la the city can possible do. “The location of our plant Is the river bottom, and directly above it run the

“From the presetjt outlook we are firm la the belief that we will have between 10,6(X1 and 16,000 Incandescent lamps In actual service within one year frem the time the ptont Is formally opened. While the cost ts small, about 7^ cents a thousand smttS'being the highest, when the dlsvouai Is oinsiaered, we have every as-
surance that there is a good profit behind
It
“We have a proposition through a local capitalist, representing a company which offers to take the city’s plant just els It stands, and produce light at 3 cents a thousand watts, we to sell it at whatever we may choose This company does not wish to buy the plant, understand, but simply agrees to operate It at its own expense, paying all the necessary
help, buying fuel. etc. A Profit at Three Cento.
“In other words, this company of men believes that there Is a good profit In making electricity at 3 cents a thousand watts. We w^lll not accept the offer, for if a private corporation can make fair returns on such a basis, the city can accomplish equally as good results, If not better We believe that we can furnish power at our switch-board at less than 3
cents a thousand watts.
Contract with a Private Company. "Blchmond Is under a contract with the Richmond Light, Heat and Po'wer Company for street lighting, and this contract does not expire for about two years As a general proposition, the city can not get into the street lighting business for some time, but when this does come there will be a net annual saving of about $10,000 when the present cost of lighting the streets Is considered. “The private corporation now furnishes the city with 183 street lights at $90 each per >ear. We also bum a limited number of gas lamps In the more remote portions of the city, and the aggrtgiti

Cheap Street Lights.
**We feel absolutMy certain that we can furnish arc lamps for the qjreets at $36 each a year. For some time now the city has been besieged with petitions from citizens for street lights in various parts of Richmond, but instead of granting them and turning them or«T to the pri-
