It is now possibio that the complete settlement of the tool works complications will bo affected in the near future, and that before winter the works will be iu full operation once more.

Serious results were precluded by the Interference of Officer Bnrke, who arrested Sullivan on the charge of mayhem, Iwhlch is a criminal offense. Hi© conflict was the first in which a newspaper man has been involved for some time. Not for an ex-policeman, however.

He waa a member of OorneH* Prinoston, and tdnee then with the University of Cincinnati. He is prominent man In scientific circle* and by reason of his origin*! publications tu nv&thomaUrait he has t*ken an advanced position among the most prominent matfottitaUeiaa* of the coanuy. Bel* married man and hit wife and children will be an interesting addition to the society of the city. Professor Eddy
will not be able to assume the Poly tech nic presidency until the winter term, as hisobligations to the Cincinnati University preclude hia early retirement from that institution. In his selection the Polytechnic has undoubtedly received an excellent man.
Wednesday was the opening day of the Rose Polytechnic's fall term and was a busy one from morning till night.

The music at Centenary church last Sunday was such as is not often heard in the churches here. The regular quartette, which is a most excellent one, being composed of Mr. Dan Davis, Miss Flora Kellar, Miss Bell, and Mr Roney, was assisted by Miss Emily Allen, organist, anfl the several numbers given during both morning and evening services were beautiful. Miss Allen's accompaniments were exquisite, her control of the organ being marvelous. She seemed to bring out every resource of the instruments in such a manner as to present the choir at its best, and in the tenor solo "My Reedemer" by Dan Davis the congregation was held perfectly charmed. Mr. Davis never sang better nor was he ever accompanied more beautifully. It was not surprising that Rev. Towne should preach an unusually powerful sermon, for the music was enough to inspire him to the eflort.
