Will Refuse to Interchange Freight With C, C. & L. Railroad. CASE OF LOCAL INTEREST. Muncie, Ind., March 2. In addition to orders given by Judge Joseph G. Leffler on Friday afternoon, in which the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis and the Lake Erie & Western Railroad companies are restrained from refusing to interchange traffic with the Chicago, Cincinnati & Louisville company in this city, the court haa also enjoined the two New York Central lines from refusing to intcrfcwitch with the C, C. & L., at any other Indiana points after a final hearing tt the injunction proceedings that was Instituted by the Indiana Kailroad commission. As counsel for the Railroad commission Attorney General James Bingham came to Muncie Friday and filed injunction proceedings against, the C, C. C. & St. L. and the L. IS. A: V. companies to restrain their contemplated Hction to discontinue intercourse witli the C, C. & L. in the city of Muncie. Later the attorney general filed a second paragraph to each of the complaints, in which action was directed against the respondent companies frpiu severing their connections with the C, C. and I at other Indiana cities, particularly Marion and Peru. It is charged that the Vanderbilt 3iriP3 in these cities as well as Muncie, "will threaten to discontinue interewitching with the C, C. & L.. and that the Railroad commission did not receive information of this contemplated action until Feb. 2", a date that was too late for it to serve notice on the railroads before the service would have leen cut off, thereby causing the shippers and the general public to suffer. Judge Leffler has designated March 10 as the date when he will hear arguments for a temporary injunction. MILTON. IND. Milton, Ind., Mar. 2 R. F. Calloway as at Indianapolis Thursday.

WHAT WILL BECOME ' OF TRACTION LINE This Is the Question Worrying New Castle People.

New Castle, Ind., March 2. With the arrival of March much interest centers in this city and the towns west of here as to the disposition of the affairs of the Indianapolis, New Castl & Toledo electric line. It has been understood in this city that the original promoters had until March 2 in which to raise the necessary money to again take charge of the company's affairs. It is also understood that if the original promoters do not raise the necessary money then the receiver will proceed with the completion and sale of the road. The line is so near completion that but a small sum, in comparison with the total cost, will be required to put it in operation. PEOPLE WON SUIT T. H., I. & E. Will Have to Pay Part of Cost of Street Improvement. STORY OF THE CASE. New Castle, Ind., Mar. 2. The property owners of South Fourteenth street have won the first skirmish in their light to compel the Terre Haute Indianapolis & Eastern Traction company to pay a share of the cost of paving the street, on which the traction company has tracks. When the asessment roll was made for the improvement the property owners were made to bear all of it and brought suit in the circuit court The original franchise of the company provided for a payment of a share of paving all streets on which there was track,, but several years after it was granted the council, at the company's request, struck out this clause. The action saddled upon the property owners of the street a cost of about $5,000 which they object to paying and claim the council had no right to amend the franchise in this manner. The hearing was before Judge Jackson, who, after having the case under consideration for several weeks rendered a decision in favor of the property owners. The suit was originally filed against the city of New Castle, the council, the council members individually and the Western Construction company, but finally summed down to an individual action against the city.

The prized possession of the Bolivian Indian woman and her chief pride also whether she is pure Indian or chola, iher petticoat. Her dowry is in thi?garment. Like the Dutchwoman oi tradition, she carries her wealth nboui with her. These petticoats are of ai: colors of the raiubovr ami diver other hues not fouml therein. I first noticed them at Nazarene and re marked the love of color, which must be inborn, for th garments were of yellow, purple, violet, fiery red, crimson, scarlet, subdued orange, glaring saffron, blue and green. They were short, reaching barely below the knee, and no difference was observed between childhood, maidenhood, matronly middle life and wrinkled old age. Glancing from my w indow in Tupiza, thought it was a parade of perambulating balloons. Thes women have a habit which the bashful traveler does not at first understand. When he sees one of them calmly removing a petticoat he Is apt to turn away, but he need not do so. It may be that the advancing heat of the day has caused the wearer to discard the outer skirt, but more likely it Is the vanity of her sex and the desire to make her sisters envious by showing what is beneath, for each new vesture disclosed is more brilliant than the one which overlapped it. I sat in the plaxa at Tupiza and watched two Indian women try to make eachlother envious. The first one removed the outer petticoat, which was of purple. This divestment disclosed another garment of blazingred. and after that came a brilliant yellow. The other woman started with a green petticoat and gradually got down to a mixture of blue and yellow. By that time I had begun to fear for ttae consequences and made a pretense of turning nay hack by trolling to tha hotel. National Geographical aMf axlna.

PORTLAND REFUSES Business Men There Not Interested in Extension of Traction Line.

PASSED UP THE MEETING. Portland, Ind., Mar. 2 The business men of Portland and its citizens apparently have little interest or care whether the Ft. Wayne & Springfield traction line is extended south from Decatur through this city and to Richmond or not. On Friday night at 7:30 o'clock a meeting was called for the office of C. W. McLaughlin, the purpose being, as requested by E. M. Haas, of the Richmond Commercial club, which is leading in the movement for the extension, to appoint a committee of five business men or citizens of the city, to meet, with a like number from other towns along the line between Decatur and Richmond, to consider the ways and means to secure the line. When the hour for the meeting had come and gone, although the office was open and McLaughlin waited, not a soul responded to the call. After waiting until after 8 o'clock, he abandoned the virgil and went home. THIS YOUNG WOMAN HAD RIGHT SPIRIT Journeyed for Miles to Get "Company." Shelbyville, Ind., March 2 Leap year gives the young women an opportunity for giving many entertainments for the young men, but very few of them would have the courage to go miles after their lovers, as did one young woman who is considered one of the prettiest and the most popular in her social set. The latest entertainment given by the leap year girls was a dance at which there were over 100 people from this and the neighboring cities present. Miss Lena Stine, who has been keeping company" with Ira De Weese of Greensburg, selected him as her choice for the dance. In the afternoon she went to Greensburg, called at Mr. DeWeese's home for him; brought htm to Shelbyville, a distance of twenty-five miles, and they attended the dance together. ECONOMY, IND.

REMONSTRANCE SIGNERS GET PART OF STOCK New Castle Saloonist Sold His Outfit.

New Castle, Ind., Mar. 2. Another saloon closed its doors in this city Saturday as the result of the blanket remonstrance, which is pending a hearing in the Rush circuit court. The saloon which closed is the third in the past two months on account of the license expiring. The license of William Pipher expired Saturday at 11 o'clock, that night the doors were closed, perhaps not to open again, unless the court holds the blanket remonstrance illegal. In order to get rid of; cl no 1.- ti nVi n-i liil v o t-nr-tiL-n r o I "one day closing out sale, with all goods at cost." The result was surprising. Whisky, beer, rum. wines, etc., disappeared in large quantities, the amount, of liquors, etc, sold being over 600 quarts. Besides this half a car load of beer was sold and a number of persons who signed the remonstrance came in and secured quantities of the wine at cost price.

Russell, have another charge to answer along the same lines. CENTERVILLE, IND. Centerville, Ind., March 2.

The Lion la a Low, Crafty Brat aid a Good. Deal of a Coward. The "king of beasts," declares a writ- ! er upon the lions of Africa in the Meti ropolitan Magazine, Is an unmitigated i nuisance. The stock owner loathes him ; for the havoc he causes among the i herds. There is no security against 1 him. He is always traveling. A pair of lions may And a spot where game is easily obtainable and make a considerable stay thare, but their real home is the whole veld. If the lion slew only as much as he : could eat he would be less hateful, but he will often kill four or -five oxen and content himself with devouring only the entrails of one. He is a low, crafty brute, one that takes no risks, for, unlike the leopard, he will never leap a wall unless he can see what is on the other side. A paper fence would keep him away from j herd of cattle, provided they did not break out through terror of his growling and his smell. The lion's roar is the subject of another fiction. Not that he is incapable of makis; the most terrible, awe inspiring sound emitted by any living tiling, but because when he is roaring he is harmless. It is the lion which keeps quiet that Is to be feared, for as a rule the male and female work in couples, and the one that makes the noise is merely driving the game down the wind to the silent partner. In a single respect only on the score of strength does the lion deserve his name of "king of beasts." He can drag a large bullock over rough ground with the greatest ease; he can carry a mule on his back, after hoisting it there by some strange sideways Jerk of his head; he can leap a five foot fence with a full sized donkey gripped in his mouth. Otherwise, speaking from a seven years' experience in the lion country, I have no hesitation in describing the king of beasts as a fraud, at least so far as his alleged nobility is concerned. His regal attributes lose some of their glamour when one learns that the so called monarch frequently lives for days at a time on such plebeian food as field rats, and the vision of the kingly creature sitting patiently on a flat rock waiting for the rats to come out from underneath is a rather nnheroic one.

Jones TEMPERANCE WINS Greenfield Business Men Have Been Threatened With Boycott. SIGNED A REMONSTRANCE. Greenfield, Ind., March 2. The temperance people of Greenfield and vicinity are rejoiefng over the success of their fight against the saloons of this. city. The majority in the Second ward where the hardest fight was made, was only thirteen. This fight has been an unusual one in many ways. Prominent politicians of each party and the men and women of each church fought together. Enough names have been secured to Insure a dry city and township for two years unless the saloon men are successful in contesting some of the signatures. The saloon men have notified the business men who signed the remonstrance that they need not expect patronage from them. It is reported that they are prepared to fight the remonstrance through the courts if they are defeated iu the Commissioners' court. There are ten saloons in Greenfield tliat will be knocked out if the rcmoustrauce holds good. THE LUNACY OF LOVt. Balwer I.yMon'a I.rttera to HI. Om "Adored Foodie." To Miss Louise Devey, the former friend and the executrix of Lady Lytton, had been confided a packet of 293 letters, representing the correspondence of Bulwer Lytton with Mis Wheeler in the days of their early courtship. Miss Devey published these with a preface, stating that she took' this action in order to vindicate the memory of her dead friend. In what manner the letters could be regarded as a vindication it is difficult to see, though they serve as a remarkable contribution to the literature of epistolary lovemaking. Tbe extravagant absurdity of some of them is almost beyond belief, and two passages may be quoted as Illustrative of many others. In the letters Bulwer Lytton addresses Miss Wheeler as "Poodle" and signs himself "Puppy" or "Puppo." "My Adored Poodle: Many, many thanks for oo darling letter. Me is so happy, me is wagging my tail and putting my ears down. Me is to meet oo tomorrow. O day of days! I cannot tell you how very, very happy yon have made me! No, my own love, don"t come before 12; but really I shall meet you! Oh, darling of darlings Q zoo love of loves, me in ready to leap out of my skin for joy! Adieu. Twenty million kisses. "And so they dressed my poodle in white and black? O zoo darling! How like a poodle! And had oo oo's bootiful ears curled nicely, and did oo not look too pretty, and did not all the puppy dog run after oo and tell oo what a darling oo was? Ah! Me sends oo 9,000,000 kisses to be distributed as follows: 300.000 for oo bootiful mouth, 250.000 to oo right eye, 250,000 to oo left eye, 1,000,000 to oo dear neck and the rest to be equally divided between oo arms and hands. "Ten million more kisses, my own darling, for your letter which is just arrived. It is read, end now before it is answered take the following (marks of kisses). Pray, darling, shall we not kiss prettily tomorrow, darling (d) (a) (r) (1) (i) (n) (gj? "Adieu, my own Rose, my life of life, Tery poodle of very poodles, adieu! "Adieu, oo own idolatrous puppy.
