The management of the Terre Haute ball club is deserving of success. Mr. Schmidt has not only

Terre Haute has in contemplation the annexation of several suburbs which are really a portion of the city and should be included in the corporation, the intention was indicated in the following reflation, introduced and referred at the council meeting on Tuesday evennig: "Resolved, That the city attorney be instructed to confer with the city engineer, who will make a survey, and form an ordinance extending the city limits north from Eighth avenue to Maple avenue and east from Nineteenth reet to Twenty-second street and south from Hulman street to Voorhees street." By this extension the population of the city will not only be materially increas1, but the residents of the annexed portions will be able to enjoy privileges now Levond their reach.

Clioton Kidder, son of Wlllarct Kidder, who graduated from the Polytechnic one year ago, was last week appointed superintendent of the Mt. Auburn electric railway in Cincinnati, with not only a big salary but promise of early promotion. The line has just been completed, and it was during the construction that the company learned Mr. Kidder's fitnessj^for the position, he being in the employ of the Sprague electric company, builders of the line. He is but 21 years of age, and the appoint ment is not only a high compliment to him but a recommendation for the Polytechnic. It was his intention to take a post graduate course at Cornell next winter^but tho position is such anjexcel lent one that he changed his olans. 1

The city council and telephone company are still at war with no prospect of an early agreement. The ordinance recently passed imposing a license of from $5 to $25 on every telephone in use in the city was declared "unoonstitu tional" by City Attorney Taylor, so the council passed instead an ordinance de daring "telep& no wires upon the streets, alleys arid public grounds of the city of Terre Haute a nuisance, and providing for their removal, making it un lawful to erect or maintain telephone poles or wires thereupon and providing a penalty therefor" The penalty imposed is any sum not more than $50 and costs fpr each day of violation. Developments are anxiously awaited. The council is determined to trouble the telephone company and is certainly justi fled in so doing. The company enjoys a free franchise and is unwilling to show appreciation of this privilege by granting even so much as free telephone service to the city.
