BARRED AT WABASH.

The City Council at Wabash last week adopted a resolution ruling off the streets for all time to come carnivals and similar exhibitions by any individual, society or organization. The resolution is the result of the street fair there last week, under the auspices of the Order of Eagles. Many of the shows were undesirable, and the spectacle of boys and girls |naking the rounds, without discrimination, aroused a strong public sentiment against carnivals, •he fruit of which is the resolution. B*he ministers of the city are also a unit in their condemnation and Jiave agreed to oppose any similar demonstration in the future with fill of their influence,
