THE POLYTECHNIC BOYS-

They tarry Off sixteeniPrlsea at Indi anspelis Saturday. The Polytechnics swept over Indianalpolis like an avalanche on Saturday and when they were through with the colleges represented at the inter-collegiate field day contest they bad won nearly everything in sight. They left here on Saturday morning by special train over the Big Four and 265 students went over. When thev arrived at the union depot at Indianapolis they woke up the sleepy old capital and made her narrow streets resound with their mighty yell:

R. P! R. P! Rah-Rah Rah-Rah R. 1«! R, F! Rah-Rah Rah-Rah Hurali! Hurah! Rose Polytechnic Rah! Rah! Rali!„. They went to the Y. M. C. A. park where the exercises were carried out, and from the very moment they set foot on the grounds they were masters of the sit: uation. They had the only tent on the ground, and their colors—rose and white —could be seen on every hand throughout the city. Thcv alone of the state colleges went in by special train. Their streamer "Rose Polytechnic" which adorned one of the coaches, and the rose and white school colors floated triumphantly from the train as they pulled out of the capital of the state with more prizes than all of the other state colleges combined—ten first prizes and six seconds.

The singles in tennis were won by Seaton, of Wabash. In the 100 yards dash, Brewer, of Wabash, wou over Layman, R. P. I,, by only a few inches. Time, 10} seconds. farring, of DePauw, and Randall, of Wabash, were matched in throwing the base ball,and the former won on a throw of (2f£ feet, the latter taking second place.

The standing broad jump was a pretty contest, Thonias. of DePauw, and McNutt, of Wabash, beiug matched.' The former carried offthe honors oil a score of 0 feet 10 inches. McNutt second.

The prise for throwing the hammer waa somewhat irregular, owing to the weight of the hammer and length of the landlo. The regulation hammer weighs 10 pounds with a 3J-foot handle. Beach, the Poly representative, lias a record of 4 feet. The hammer used Saturday was too heavy and the handle was one foot short Beach was matched against Martin, of Wabash, and was woreted by a score of 51 feet 8 inches to51 feet 0 inches, in spite of the fact that Martin'B tfest record with a regulation hammer is 51 feet The match could be claimed by Beach on foul, but it will probably be allowed to stand.

The 120

Hanson, of the Polytechnic, took the running broad jumpover Nichols, of Butler, with great esae. His jump was IS feet 9 inchee Nichols, 17 feet. 4$ inches.

The one-fifth mile run was pulled in by Stovey, of Wabash, in 46 seconds over Talley, of the Polytechnic.

The running high jump was captured by Layman, of the Poly, over Thomas, of DePauw. The former jumped. 5 feet, 2 inches. Layman was much complimented for the ease and grace with which he jumped.

Hulman put the shot 27 feet 7 inches, while Mont, of Wabash, put it 24 feet 2 inches and thus the Poly carried off another prise.

In the standing high jump Layman again carried off toe houoni lor Koee over Steeg, ateo of the Poly, on a jump of 4 feet 4 inches.

The two mile bkycle race was won by Wilhite, of Wabash, with Cook, of the Poly, second time 7.27. Halm&a was in She race but did not finish.

Mills, ol the Poly, and Krickson, of Wabash, entered the one mile walk and the former won by a fine spurt at the home stretch inS minutes and 15 tee* onds.

Zariug, of DePauw, took the half mile ran almost without opposition in 2:28. The running high kick was won by Mount, of Wabash, on a kick of 8 Ieet6| inclx*, over Thomas, of DePauw, who kicked S feet 6 inches in standing.

The 220 yard dash was one ot the prettiest eontetis of the day. layman, of the Poly, won, but as one of the Poly be?*had erassed the track fast an the race was being finished, Wahsab claimed it on a tool, layman refused to run and Wabash entered two men,

The approaches to the water line near the water works, yesterday, were decid edly unpleasant bv reason of the reced ing water leaving the sloping bank in dreadfully muddy condition and rendering it correspondingly difficult to reach the boats.

The Juniata Club with numerous guests, making a boat load,-wenHb Clinton yesterday, leaving at 1:30 p. m. and returing about 9 o'clock. It was an exceedingly jovial party. The weather was sultry and as a matter of necessity two kegs of red lemonade were carried along,

Another car lead of machinery for the pump house of the new water works was received Saturday and will be unloaded to-day. There will be at least six car loads more necessary and this will be shipped within the next ten days. The new machinery it/ estimated will weigh complete 300,000 jjbunds. The carpenters commenced this morning to frame the high Gothic roof for the new pumping and boiler house, the brick work being nearly completed. The tower will be finished by tne latter part of this week. The structure completed will be an elegant affair, very attractive and im posing, the sand banks to the north and east will be leveled, covered with deep soil and sodded. Fountains and beds of flowers will be added for adornment and the enclosure will be surrounded by light iron fence of pretty design. ,.-"i

Patrolman King Uses His Club With Telling Effect an Charles Hers. This morning Charles Herz came into Police court with his head encased in bandages and pleading guilty to the charge of drunkenness was fined $1 and costs. He was arrested last night by Patrolman King for being intoxicated and for firing several shots from his revolver The patrolman defends his treatment of Herz by saying that the latter had a pistol in his face and he was compelled to use the club to

his life. Herz was

pretty badly hurt, but the wounds in dieted were by no means dangerous.

Aleck's Croaks.

About three years ago a pair of confi dence men named Rice and Watson caught Aleck McPheeters, an old and well to-do farmer of this county, in a rank swindling game to the tune of 92,500. One of the crooks made McPheeters believe that he (the crook) was Frank McKeen, and roped him into a little scheme by which he was to realize 400 per cent, on his money invested. Vandever and Lawlor failed to secure the crooked gents and they went to Detroit, where for a piece of" crooked work they were sent to Jackson penitentiary for two years each If they had secured commutation of time they would have been released the 9th of this month. They misbehaved themselves. however, and will have to serve out their sentences, which will keep them ia the pen until October 28th. They were to have been brought here lor trial June 9th, but after all, their trial and conviction here ia merely a matter of postponement

Slack Jail Business.

When Judge Mack ascended the Cir cuit court rostrum this morning and sat himself down to survey his congregation of attorneys, Sheriff Weeks called the court to order and turned over to the judge his report of the number of prisoners at present in jail and what each one charged with. The report shows that there were only six prisoners, three of whom were chaiged with crimes and the others with drunkenness. With the jail business at this low ebb, the Sheriff will probably have to dispense with a little more of his assistance. I
