The secret carnival, being arranged for by the members of the Wayne Aerie of Eagles, will be the best attraction of its kind ever held In this city. A contract will be closed within a few days with the Gaskell Carnival company, the largest organization of Its kind on the road. , . . , . The exact date of the carnival jubilee has not yet been set.

PLAN HOME COMING WEEK
State Fair This Year to Have Unusual Feature Secy. Downing Preparing to Push Project.
Secretary Charles Downing of the State Board of Agriculture proposes a "home-coming" week for Indiana people who have strayed from the boundaries of the State., 'My idea,' said Secretary Downing, "would be to have the home-coming during the State Fair. The railroads give low rates to Indianapolis during fair week, and with a 'homecoming' event on at the same time we could no doubt get a better rate. The fair board of course, take an active interest in it."

DRAW PLANS TO RE-BUILD SYSTEM
Home Telephone Company Will Lose No Time in Improving Its Plant.
$100,000 WILL BE SPENT
IF THE AUTOMATIC SYSTEM IS PUT IN IT WILL MEAN THE PASSING OF FORTY FIVE "HELLO" GIRLS. " '
Superintendent Bailey of the Home Telephone Company yesterday started work on drawing up plans and specifications for the installation of a complete, modern and upto date telephone system, and whe"n these plans and specifications are completed .and approved, no. time will be wasted in carrying them into effect. It is planned to install new switchboards, telephones and other equipment. The automatic telephone system is being considered and it is probable that it will be installed. If the automatic system, which is now in general use throughout the country is decided upon it will mean the passing of the "hello girls." President Lindemuth of the Home Telephone Company stated yesterday that -it took a great amount of persuasion on the part of himself and the other officials of the company to induce the out of town stockholders to consent to the re-building of the sys--tem, which is 'only six years old, as it meant the " tearing down on Main street of property valued over $10,000. They were finally convinced of the wisdom of the move and Mr. Lindemuth thinks they will feel particularly kindly to the people of Richmond, for council's action Tuesday night in passing the conduit ordinance. At the present time the Home Telephone Company has sixty employes, forty-five of whom are girls. If the automatic system is not included in
The six bids from the various companies on "supplies to be used in reequipping the Municipal Light plant were opened yesterday by the Board of Public Works. The sum total of the lowest bids on the various improvements, amounts to $27,647,
rhich the board thinks is exceptional-
lywv. People who know of what
they speak, are also of the Board's opinion and state that the city has secured a bargain. Contracts on supplies were awarded to the following companies: For engine, (turbin), generator, exciter engine and switchboard, the General Electric Company, of Schenectady. N. Y. For boilers, Sterling Boiler Company, of Barberton, O.
For condensers, Wheeler Company
of Philadelphia.
For stokers, Westinghouse Company of Pittsburg. Other Companies Who Bid. The only companies besides the General Electric Company, (the successful bidders,) who asked for the engine, generator, exciter engine and switchboard contract, were the Westinghouse company and the Allis, Chamness Company. The total amount of the Westinghouse bid including the lowest bids on boilers, condensers and stokers, was $28,425. The total amount of the Allis, Chamness bid, including the lowest bids on the same supplies, amounted to $28,160. Bids on boilers, stokers and condensers combined with the bid of the General Electric Company for the unit, which includes the engine of turbin pattern, the generator, exciter and switchboard, amounted to $27,647. Contracts Not Yet Made. The contracts for these supplies and the work of installing them have not yet been made and probably will not be for some time yet, as it will ba necessary to secure and examine the bonds of the successful bidders, and the city attorney will have to go over the contracts for the purpose of seeing that they are legal. The city civil engineer will also have to examine the contracts. Mead and Company of Dayton, the engineers who drew up the plans and specifications for the re-equipment of the plant, and who received the bids on the work, will receive for their work, according to a contract entered into with them and the city, 2y2 per cent of the contract price.
