NOTES AND OBSERVATIONS ON MATTERS ABOUND TOWN.

Have often wondered'why some enterprising citizen did not make a pleasant resort out of the beautiful grove at the

4pots in the city, and the street cars xnakeit easy of access. It would cost tout a small sum of money to fit it up, *nd the man with the enterprise to do this would reap a rich harvest.

The Ringgold band managers evidently realize the advantages of the place as they have secured it (through the kind«ess of Mr. Hulman) and will put a fence around and otherwise improve it, and hold their band tournament there, I hope they will make lots of money on the tournament this year, as no doubt they will—particularly if they give as nice an entertainment as they did last year. They would have made money last year bad it not been for the hoggishiiens of the baekmen and the bus owners, who made the people put up half the price of one of these vehicles to ride out to the fair ground and back. This year the street car people will make the money—and I trust the Ringgold boys -will do the samei Mr. Hulman evidently wants them to make some, as be has given them the use of the grounds free of charge.

As it was to be expected, there are «ome kickers against the building of the new engine house, the contract for which wa* let this week for .95,600, including the work of tearing down the old rattle trap that has for so long been dignified by the title of fire headquarters. But the majority of the people will favor the -work, which probably can never again be done as cheaply as now. In the course of a few years the cost of the building can be saved in the purchase of feed, which, from the lack of storage room, can be bought now only in small -quantities. There are always kiokers to be found, but if nothing more serious is done than the erection of a building needed as badly as a new engine house there will be no barm done. The old market houso at Ninth and Cherry -streets, will probably be listed as head•quarters during the erection of the new building.

Several mornings this week at an early hour, two pleasant looking, blackcoated gentlemen might have been seen •skirmishing around in the streets and alleys in tho north end. They did not liave the appearance of burglars, but they examined buildings closely, going from place to place, uutil the suspicion •of the honest-minded north-enders were -aroused. It was then discovered that the suspicious persons were Superintendent Wiley and school trustee Ken•dall, engaged in a still hunt for a suitable room in which to establish an extra school room to accommodate the iu•crease of school children. They had •heard of there being so many vacant houses to rent, aud ihey thought they would hove no trouble in getting a suit«ble room. After an ineffectual search •of several days they changed their minds somewhat. They at last found a room on Lafayette street between the railroads, which it is thought will anwer the purpose.

Thebids Tor the construction of the basement of the new High School building wlllbodpen until the 7th lost., and that is about as far ahead as the trustees can see at present. J. A. Vry--dagh, whose plans for the building were accepted, has been selected as Superintendent of construction atfSa day, with the explicit undemanding that there will be no extras beyond this. The trustees are gradually getting things Into preliminary shap# for the next school campaign, and this week selected a building on north Fourteenth street in which an additional colored school will be opened, with A. E. Meyteek, a colored graduate of our High School, as teaoher.

There will be trouble between the Terre Haute Street Railway Company and the Oollett park company, if the latter organisation has the sand to go •head with their work in the face of the threat* which the older company has indulged in. The matter will come up at the Council meeting Tuesday night, when an attempt will be made to repeal theordinanca granting the new company the right of way along Sixth and Lafayette street#. Several conferences were held by committees from the two companies this week, the only result being a realisation of the fact that the old company, having the means, will fight every at tempt of t&e new spompany to put down it* track. If the Coltett I'ark track should be 1«M as has alnoebeeu tb "..:,.:,%n injunction w!T! be asked tor »W If ou thd otb«|t h^pd, th iV. :r -ouU attempt to extend its Sixth attest line, the Oollett Park people will enjoin thetu—and so star! •», •a

Itiere is no qu**Uon but that a line to Collect Park will pay—that is the reason the "Id bj* :to amother line be.' built. Zt is ?aid fi Oollett Park managers have of *td Iea»e the Sixth a*tee: line for* cm o' jeirwata fair lental, to toeaa their Jh^rk exteo»lon to the old c^upony

i-*

when completed. Both offers were declined, fmt an offer to sell all the lines and fixtures of the old company waa made. The price named, $50,COO was considered too high, and negotiations ended in that direction. There's no telling what the council will do Tuesday night but from the present outlook, we will have a street railroad to Collett Park—when it suite the pleasure of the Terre Haute Street Railway company to build one—and not before.

the street car line on Third

is one of the most beautiful

It was discovered this week that John Hatborn, ofPierson township, recently appointed traveling deputy under Collector Hanlon, was a deserter from Col. John P. Baird's gallant old 85th Ind. This debars him from office, and it is likely that Maurice Hegarty, who is capable and deserving, will be giVen the place. From all reports Hathorn has lived an exemplary life since his one bad break, but knowing what could be brought up against him, his best Democratic friends are of the opinion that he should not have accepted the office.^

IF you have any country cousins prepare to visit them now.

CHAS. GARBN, who started up to Maxinkuckee, this morning, fell off the train and received severe injuries.

THE police will not permit bathing in the river during daylight, and there is a crying need of a free bath house.

THB weeds along the sidewalks must go, according to the city marshal's order, which is in the interests of the general health. #i"

THERE is an epidemic of petty thieving and a care should be exercised in leaving houses open, as there is a great temptation to do these hot nights.

THE small boy—and the large ones as well—will be glad to know that we are to have another circus, Van Amburg'-, which will be here on the 8th of September.

THB old Light Guards at a meeting last night decided to attend the Grant memorial in a body, and a committee was appointed on permanent organization as a sort of a veteran association.

THERE has been talk that the district telegraph had "petered out," but news came this week that the boxes would be put in shortly. C. C. Oakey will be manager of the local service, with headquarters at the Western Union office.

EVERY day the prospects grow brighter for tbe most successful fair ever given by the Vigo Agricultural Society. The new street railroad from the end of the present track on east Main to the fair grounds is being pushed rapidly, and will prove a big thintf for the society. The grading is being done on the road below the grade of the National road.

THE Collett Park trustees will allow no card playing in the ..park, as a party of Indies and gentlemen found out one evening this week. They were enjoying a private picnic at the park, including a social game of eucbre, and the watchman put a stop to the latter. Tbe rule is intended to prevent the park from becoming a rendezvous for rou crowds of card players, and is a good one.

THE Grant memorial services in this city will be bold at the opera bouse next Saturday afternoon, and will be very elaborate. A parade will be given and the exercises will consist of the G. A. R. ritual, addresses by Hon. R. W. Thompson, Senator Toorheea, and Hon. Thos. II. Nelson, and music by the Davis family. Committees from the city council and G. A. R. are in charge of tho exercises. _•

"THB True Blue Cook Book," is the title of a handsome little volume just issued from the press of Geo. H. Hebb, by the ladies of the Central Freebyterial church. Cook books an a general thing are delusions and snares, but this differs from all others in that the reoeipes herein contained have been successfully used by our home folks, and can be relied on. The book is worth many times the price asked for it, 50 cents, and the man who refuses to buyf one for bis wife ought to be compelled to eat badlycooked food the remainder of his life.
