MAN ABOUT TOW,

IL

The promised Wey-Kennedy fight to a finish Iii the city council chamber, Vigo Circuit court rales, with Mayor Ross as referee, announced positively to take plaoi last Tuesday night. did not come off, but the date was fixed for the same place next Tuesday night, under same rules and same referee. Odds of a ^•gjbundred to one are offered, and find no ^takers, that Kenedy will knock his man C. out, but as both are in the pink of conedition, the fight 1» expeeted to be long and stubborn. llv Some claim that the display was post^^poned on account of the absence of $fr. Stein, who isftKennedy man, which ieft the Republicans, with Mr. Wey added, in a position to declare the offioe ^vacant after sustaining the charges but inhere is no reason in such a charge, for lit would have been easy enough to have voted against postponement and thus carried out such a step, if it was Intended. If the trial had been Mattempted along with the other business ^of the last meeting, it is quite probable that the meeting would have still been *. in progress. gft There will be fifty or more witnesses Igto examine, it is Itkely, as Mr. Wey had J5jon his list

MO

a

1

me thirty-two persons to be

f/iexamined in support of the charges, yto which has been added that of im--3 proper management of the car works fire. The list of witnesses for Mr. Wey

includes Assignee Baker, of the car y^works, a number of tbe'employes there^ Jl&W. E. Burnes, W. W. Ray, John Hanley, \'a. G. Austin and others. Some of the •witnesses, when they put in an appearance Tuesday night, were in the dark as to tho testimony they were to be called on to give. Kennedy's witnesses, it is tiuderstood, include Prof. M. A. Howe, the well known engineering,expert of "tho Rose Polyt©chulc,8upt. Williamson, of the water works company, who is a ^theoretical, as well as practical, en* /Jiliieer, and Prank Prox, of the Pro* fc

Brlnkimvn Go. In case the charges made against ^VKonnedy are not sustained before the ^Council Mr. Wey anounoes his intention of appealing to the Circuit Court, though I it is not dear just how this can be ao-

)cempllshed. The city attorney is the legal adviser $„of the various city officials in matters ^pertaining to the oonduct of their offices, but when any of them are charged with violation of the ordinances, he Is of necessity the prosecutor. Hence

City Attorney Foley will have legal |'charge of the case against the fire ohief, fl who lias engaged Thos. W. Harper to "appear for hitn. Mr. Harper's presence

In the case will add a certain liveliness to it that will not detract from the attendance.

It is asserted that Moesrs. Wals Weldele and Stein, who resigned from the fire committee several months ago, after each council meeting, go down iu "the alley back of the street com missioner's office, and kick each other long and vigorously for having douesuoh a thing. & If they had retained their places on the fr committee it is not likely that this troublo would have occurred, and it Is doing the par* no good, either from a moral or polu teal standpoint. No mat*ter how the «ae may be decided, It will leave hard feelings that will rume to the front in every city campaign, and now as the city officials are elected for terms of four years each, and next spring Is the first time under the new law, it will bring them into a city campaign with a ready made fight on hand. If they had to make a second trial of the fire comjjpamlttee, therefore, they would stick—and stick strong*'

The council had better do something to settle this dispute, and do it quickly, or there Is likely to be a raise in insurance raiea that will bring a howl from every business man and property owner In the city. Said a prominent fire insurance roAn, the other day, talking of this matter: "Torre Haute has lower insurance rates than almost any other dty of it# else, and it is because of the efficiency of the fire department that this has been possible. But this quarreling and bickering between the lire chief and the chairman of the fire oommit&e certainly can't incmase the efficiency or discipline of the men—on the contrary, It will decrease them. Whenever the efficiency sod discipline are affected, then the basis on which low rati* are secured no longer exlate—and up they'll go. It's no eecret that the special agents at Chicago and Cincinnati have been clamoring for some time to have the ratee here raised to correspond with the ratee of other cities. Rate* Ha?3 been raised during the past few months In a number of places, from twenty to sevtmty-Hv® par cent,, and a committee was appointed someUme ago to diacttwi the question of raising them here. It there isn't atop pat to this matter, therefore, there will, in all probability, be an effort made te raise the ratee." £gg

The council is after the property own. are, on north Center street, between the Vandalla and Lafayette avenue, who haven't improved their aide walka. This

is the street where the cement walks on a street already Improved. were made so low, that after a hard rain the residents along the street can't use their sidewalks unless they use rubber boots At the street intersections along the Improvement the sidewalks

are

several inches

lower than the curbing on the east and west streets, and it will be strange if the oity doesn't have* a damage suit op hand, as a result of some person falling over this curbing some dark night,

The final estimate for the Seventh street asphalt pavement was not approved by the council, auli the engineer has been instructed to prepare a new estimate. One of the reasons for this was, that some of the property owners insisted that the state Taw requiring that the property abutting the street and back fifty feet should be assessed for the Improvement, bad not been observed. The property owners whose lots abut the improvement and whose assessments will be reduced by the enforcement of this provision are P. J. Kaufman and Jacob Baur at Seventh and Main, W. H. Robertfc at Seventh and Ohio, and Miss Marietta Graver at Seventh and Oak. None of tb&*e lots have an east and west front of fifty feet, and part of the costs of the improvements will therefore be assessed to the property adjoining each. This rule has never been observed in estimating the costs for street improvements in this city, the property immediately abutting the line of the improvement having been made to pay the entire sum, and it is likely to make astir among those who are brought into the Seventh street assessment. Another point in dispute in the Seventh street assessment is that while the Warren-Scharf company bid $2.42 per square yard for the street entire and $2.32 exclusive of the street car tracks, some of the property owners claim that they have been assessed £2.42 exclusive of the street car company's* share, instead of |2 82.

Justice of the Peace Felsenthal is certainly entitled to commendation,for his righteous discharge of the boy Wells this week, who was arrested some time tgo for steaft&i a horse. Be -was but sixteen years old, and his father, who is a respectable farmer of Pennsylvania, came here to plead in his behalf that this was his first offense, and only stole the horse in order to stay his hunger. Justice may be blind, as a rule, but this is one case where she had her eyes wide open, for had the boy been sent to prison or the reform sohool, it is likely that when he oame out he would have been a confirmed criminal, and a charge on some community all the rest of his days. A man with the stain of a prison on his name doesn't have much show nowdays, though every one is supposed to get a'square deal.

ONE WOMAN'S GOSSIP*

Though as a rule the generality of men have but a poor idea of feminine judgment, still they must acktttwledyJ that in many cases a woman p|has a .keen power of divination that perhaftjj^doeS not come from any serioua line af reasoning, yet which proves none toe less valuable when the opportunity for making a deoision arrives. Many a»«nan, if he warje to take his wife more fully Into his confidence regarding the intricactee of his commercial life, would be pleasantly surprised to discover that the head which he thought was filled only with ideas of fashion and household perplexities oouid evolve some very wise advice regarding matters that he is popularly supposed alone to control. In the smaller details of life a wugtols by far the better hand to malgfflfijMtoiina and enter into contracts witnfH^Hpicn, real estate agents and others wnM^rade she is compelled to come in contact with. Strange as it may sound, a man lis more easily talked over than a woman iii matters of this kind, and, though she may not see on the face of it anything to cause her to adhere to her first plan, yet that unreasoning woman's way of arriving at a conclusion carries her lafely over many an obstaole that a man could not remove to save his soul. In many^ Instances It is not haphazard guess-work," but a clearly defined and keen percep tlon of what ought to be that carries a woman, through difficult and -trying places and brings her out ahead where a man would fall and fall behind. Many examples there are of women, who", thrown upon their own resources, have developed the keenest business Instinct, and it is our belief that such power lies latent in every one of us and needs only the opportunity to develop it.

The adage concerning the early bird that patches the worm does not bear one-quarter of the weight of significance In these days as It did when humanity thought that health, wealth and good fortune in every guise Came to the,pejrr son who managed to do with as. little sleep as -possible. That theory now exploded1. Though nature is at its-Jiest in the early morning hours* still this hurrying modern life of ours demands that unless we have given toourselVes sufficient mental and physical rest, jit would be better to forego the most glorious of sunrises for the sake of an hour or two more of necessary repose. There is nothing like sleep to store up nervous energy and put flesh on the bones. With the constant call for the expenditure of Innate force it is necessary that all mankind should have time to recuperate from the exhaustion of one day's labor before tackling that of the next day. Nervous women would dp well to throw away the sundry vials of medicine which ,are their stand-bys and in their place take every opportunity to rest. The writer of a olever article on this very topio advises women never to stand when they can sit down, never to sit when they can lie down. We go further and say whenever there is even the chance for a oat nap the wise woman will take It. Perhaps the busy housekeeper argues that even though she wpre to lie down in the afternoon sleep would not come to her, for her brain would, like John Brown's body, "go marching on" and planning hundreds Of things that the beauties of her home require. Nevertheless, even though at first the eyes do not close in restless slumber the body is being built up, and after the habit has been established it will be the easiest thing to fall off in sweet and refreshing slumber whenever an opportunity for such a dose of nature's own in vigoratorarrives.

Many a woman enjoys various sorts of athletic exercises, yet yery few are good walkers. Whether this arises from the fact that women from time immemorial have been inclined to pinch their feet with ahoes at least half a alee too small, or because there does not seem to be any perceptible benefit to be derived from long strolls we cannot say but the truth remains the same never theleas, and when the announcement was made lu the papers that it woman had walked from GAIveatoa, Texas, to Chicago, in aeventy-slx daya all the test of womanhood looked aghast and mur mured, "How in the wide world could she have done it?" Of course that long tramp was not the initial performance of ita kind. Practice as in everything else la required t« make the walker Heally thare te a wonderful amount of pleasure to be obtained la a bri*k walk before breakfast, if only one can bring their mind to bear on She problem of getting out of a cosy bed when eyeis are heavy with sleep. The inexpensive feature of thia form of amusement should commend It to those who have not the means to indulge in horse back or bicycle riding. Beginning with short auolls they can be increased daily until five mile* will be no mere fatiguing than a few aquaiee were formerly.

We often read and hear of a woseaa bringing a case to eonrt against bar husband for cruelty and desertion. Of oraiMilMHW Is usually another woman In the case and though eheloveatliia man dearly and In nine aaase out of ten

permits thiat love to overcome all obstacles and takes him to her heart again, still it is her silly jealousy and curiosity which is the foundation for a divorce suit. She seems to forget part of the marriage service to which she so readily acquiesced on ber marriage morn. She very often plays at cross purposes and strikes out what she likes of the

ulove,

honor and obey." The average American la a sort of good natured fellow, who, though full of faults, as the best of us are, makes a good husband on Jtbe whole. And when we hear of such a divoroe resulting from a letter found In a coat pocket, a conclusion formed lrom the breaking open of a letter, we deplore the display of that lack of confidence Which should be the basis of the home ties. Let a wife be the last to suspect her husband. Bear with his faults as well as you can and, if he loves you, he will surely be won back to you by your faithfulness, and things will run smoothly again. Goct has endowed woman with a patient, faithful nature, that she may be a helpmeet to man, not a hindrance, as there are so many bearing the name woman who put the title to shame, the nobler type should band tbem close together as to be proof against the bickerings and low-minded actions that are the ruination of so many men and the destroyer of our homes.'-

PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT.

The Paving of the Streets In the Bvilneu Quarter. VTbtferaof public improvements, which began with the paving of Wabash avenue and Sixth street, and the asphalting of Seventh street, will continue with the paving of the streets in the^ business "quarter of the oity, unless it receives a set-back at the next meeting of the council. Last Tuesday night bids were opened for the improvement of Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Eighth and Ninth streets, from Ohio street to Cherry street and of Sixth street from Wabash avenue to Cherry. Below will be found a list of the lowest figures made by each bidder for the work, in each case the bid being for Clinton, Indiana, paving brick, with fhe exception of the Warren-gcharf company, which is for asphalt throughout.

The property owners on Ninth street, between Wabash avenuie and Ohio street, have protested against the improvement at the present time, and it is likely there will be some opposition to letting the contracts on account of the bard, times. It is true the payment may be made in annual installments, but some of the owners do not feel like assuming an additional obligation, for if they sign the waiver entitling them to the ten year plan they cannot pay up at any time thereafter unless they pay the interest in full for the «b*i*e period. On the other hand it is irgtted that the city, as a matter of public policy, should order the improvements, is thereby employment will be given to many men who are now out of work, and with not very flattering grospecte abend of them.

200,000 MILES OF P08TAL CARD8. New York Press. The United States government has just awarded to Messrs. Wool worth A Graham, of No. 440 Pearl street, thia oity, the contract for furnishing the postal department with all the postal cards that will be used in this country for the next four years. The contract begins on October 1st, next, and between that time and October 1st, 1897, the contractors expect to furnish Uncle Sam with at least 2,500,000,000 postal cards. This is a number of such magnitude that tbe mind fails to perfectly comprehend It.

Reduced to other terms, it mean* enough postals to furnish every man,, woman and child In tbe country with thirty-eight each. It means so many postal cards that, if they were laid endi to end, they would reach around the earth more than eight times.

In tbe printing of these cards twenty tone of ink will be need and a oar load of paper boxes and a car load of lumber to pack np tbe cards that are sent out every month from tbe factory. One hundred dollar* a month Is spent for perhaps the smallest Item of detail In connection with the putting out of the cards.
