Frank Osborn, of the Muncie Bridge company, wbo stated to the commissioners last week that he had evidence against Engineer Mueller regarding work he had done in Franklin county and around Brookville, will be one of the witnesses tomorrow. Mr. Peacock will also continue his testimony at the morning session. The commissioners are anxious to have the trouble between Peacock and Mueller settled definitely so that work on the south side bridge plans can be started but owing to the fact that election takes place next Tuesday, it is probable that if the hearing requires more than one day, it will be continued until the latter part of next week. Information obtained by Peacock that at least six different bridge companies will submit plans and bids for the south side bridge, if the commiss ioners discharge John W. Mueller, will be presented tomorrow, it is understood. HOLDS LAST SOCIAL.

Remarkable photograph made at Lake Worth, Fla., showing the famous alligator tamer riding a "terrier of the Lagoons." Jim ropes alligators as a cowboy lassoes cattle. He also rides them bykeeping their heads up so they cannot dive. The tail of the alligator is as dangerous as its mouth and Jim's agility is severely taxed in dodging this extremity when mounting and dismounting. So far he has been able to accomplish the feats without sustaining any serious injury. ., . . . ;

ITALY TO REFRAIN FROM MAKING WAR AGAINST GERMANY

ROME, March 3. An inspired editorial in the Giornale D'ltalla today tays that those who hope to see Italy declare war against Germany are doomed to disappointment. The editorial is regarded as the government's answer to the interventionists in parliament who are trying to overthrow the Salandra cabinet because of its foreign policy. "The interventionists forget the origin of the motives which put Italy In this war," says the Giornale D'ltalia.
