1'he rumor current this week that a cheap priced theater was to be bnilt on the site of the old Naylor opera house proves to be unfounded. B. G. Cox, who represents Mrs. Naylor, owner of the ground, states positively that there is nothing in the reports.

James \V. Boston aud H. A. Wilkes, who have taken the lease of the new Cinciiiati house on Fourth street just north of the old*opera house site, are making every exertion to get into the place before the races. The hotel will probably be known as the Vigo house.

Walter .Tones, living at Twenty-first street and Franklin avenue, died Sunday morning from hydrophobia, caused by a dog bite received in May last. The disease did not develop until Thursday of last week, and the sufferer died in the greatest agony. He was twenty-four years of age.

The conference of the M. E. church at Lebanon this week sent back to Terre Haute all the ministers who have been identified with the several churches and their missions during the past year, with the exception of Kev. W. H. Hickman, who has been elected vice chancellor of DePauw university, and Rev. C. F. Reed, of Grace church, who retired to engage in evangelistic work. In place of Rev. Hickman, Kev. Demetrius Tillobson, who has been in Frankfort for several years past, was assigned to the First church, or Asbury, as it will ever be called. He is a graduate of the Northwestern university at Kvanston, 111., and several years ago conducted a '"cry successful revival at the old Asbury church. Like his predecessor, he is a "hustler," and during his pastorate at Frankfort increased the church membership from (MX) to 1,100. He owns property on south Center street, and will move into it shortly.

Miss Emma Fisbeck has leased the Hoffman building on south Fourth street, and it is now being fitted up for her millinery stock. She will remove some time before the holidays.

The damage suit of Ed Holloway against, the Big Four was dismissed at (iroencastle on Wednesday, the complainant failing tu put in an appbarance. The suit grew out of the wrecking of a Big Four train near Fontanet during the big strike, which Holloway was charged with having caused, and to which he later confessed. An investigation disclosed the fact that Holloway was not near the scene of the wreck at the time it occurred, ami the real perpetrators of the crime were discovered, convicted and are now serving their sentences in the penitentiary. Holloway, who is thought "to be weakminded. then brought, suit for damages, and after various postponements it was to have come ap for final hearing on Wednesday. It is now thought that he will now be declared of unsound mind, a guardian will ln appointed for him, and suit be brought in his name.

The city schools opened on Monday with the largest attendance in their history. The total number of pupils is in the neighborhood of 7,000, anil in the High School alone there are rtlO students. The kinder

garten branch, which has become very popular, will hare about 500 little ones.

It is said that a syndicate is being organized among local capitalists to secure control of the glass sand fields in Parke county, near Rosedale. It is claimed that with the proper capital and effective management there is considerable m^ney to ba made out of these fields.

Mrs. Mary Mnench, who lives with her husband, John, an employe of the brewery, on south Fifteenth street, attempted to commit suicide Monday morning, by cutting her throat with a razor. It was at first thought that she would die, but the doctors now say that she will recover. Domestic troubles led her to this rash step.

Rev. F. A. Hamp, who has had charge of the German M. E. church at Fifth and Mulberry streets for the past four years, was transferred this week to Indianapolis, the transfer being made at the conference of the German M. E. church at Columbus, Ohio. Rev. Griewe, of Indianapolis, was sent to take his place here.

Ex-Snperintendent Harvey W. Curry, although he has taken a position as teacher in one of the township schools, has evidently not abandoned his fight for the county superintendency. He filed with the commissioners this week a bill for $200 for services up to September 1st. The chances are that the commissioners will not allow it.

Prosperity, plain and tangible —and more than welcome—has really struck the employes of the Vandalia shops. Since the spring of 1893 the men there have been working on short time, not more than eight hours work a day having been given since that time. Wednesday night the men were informed that beginning with Thursday morning full time of ten hours per day would be resumed, and the forced Saturday half-holiday abandoned. Instead of forty-four hours a week, as they have b^en working for more than four years, they will now work sixty hours a week.

The deadly trolley car claimed another victim Wednesday evening, bright little Henrietta McPhillip*, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry McPhillips, of North Eighth street. The little one, who was but seven years of age, was playing with a party of children in front of her home, just after dusk, and not seeing an approaching car started to cross the track in front of it. She wa»s thrown under the wheels aud horribly mangled, death resulting in a few movements. No blame attaches to the motorman who had charge of the car, although the shock prostrated him. The frequency with which these fatalities have occurred recently has started an agitation for an ordinance compelling the street railway company to place fen' ders on all its cars. A committee from the council will investigate the fender question in several cities and report to the council on the matter.

L. Ford Perdue is organizing a branch of the Society of Sons of the American Revolution, which is one of the leading social organizations in the east. Only those who can trace their descent from some participants in the revolutionary war are admitted to membership.

He was made a member of the board, for the one year term.

It is expected that the Ohio street opening case before the Supreme court will be decided during the coming month, on a motion of the E. & T. H. railroad, on its petition for. a rehearing. The decision which the court is asked to reconsider was decidedly in favor of the city, and on it depends a number of local improvements by the city.

W. T. Bnddd, who was let out of the police force at the reorganization under the new regime, aud who recently purchased'a store at West Union, in Parke county, has been appointed postmaster at that place. It is said that there are but two Republican patrons at tha office, which made it easier for him to secure the place, although a newcomer in that \icinity.

The city commissioners held a meeting this week to discuss the proposed extension of Chestnut street east from its present terminus to a point where it would intersect Wabash avenue. The proposed extension would necessitate the removal of three houses, and theuowners of the property on the south side of the proposed street assert that their property would be damaged in an amount far beyond the benefits to the property on the north side of the street. George W. Bement, who is one of the owners injured, claims that the property in that vicinity is worth $1500 anacre.

The Tribune reports that a company of New York capitalists are corresponding with Claude Matthews, with a view to putting a system of new fangled steamboats on the Wabash capable of carrying large cargoes in shallow water. They profess to believe that they can carry coal, grain, etc., from Wabash river points, by way of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers to St. Louis cheaper than can be sent by rail. The story has a Baron Munchausen flavor.
