The report of the State Normal School for the two years ending October 31,1890, which the .flute retire. to bem»te required to hold every t«o yews to the wneral axe, blyj ,iOTnse

was yesterday forwarded to the governor,

The report of President Briggs calls attention to the fact that the institution originally* received $10,000 per annum for tuition purposes, and that this amount has been twice increased, being now $20,000 per annum. When the annual allowance for tuition stood at $10,000 the nutnberof teachers was four and the total enrollment of different students for the year was ninety-eight. The faculty now numbers twenty one, and the number of different students for the past year has been 1,009. The average term enroll-

dent, for an advanced post-graduate course of two years, to fit graduates for the higher educational positions in the state. -The general assemblj is asked to increase the aunual appropriation for tuition purposes to $30,000, which, with the allowance for incidental purposes, -youId make the total annual appropriation $40,000. Each of the other state educational institutions receives a larger appropriation than this, and neither has more titan from one-half to two-thirds as many students as the Normal school.

The suggestion of President Parsons that a separate building for a laboratory and museum is needed, is also called to attention of the general assembly, and is heartily endorsed. We estimate the expense for constructing and furnishing such a building to be not less than $36. 000.

Following the report of the president of the board is that of President Parsons. It relates to the scholastic condition of the ,institution, and is necessarily the most extended, covering about one hundredjype written pag£S-rj tions to the faculty made since the report of two years ago, presents a mass of statistics as to the attendance, Bbows what counties have been represented in the school within the past two years, gives the various courses of study with explanations of the same, discussing the question of professional training for the

room, embraces reports from all the heads of departments in the institutions, and seti forth at length the present condition and needs of the school.

Iu referring to the changes of the faculty in two years the president says: "I ilty am glad to say that competent persons have been found to fill the vacancies which have occurred from time to time, and that the instruction in the Normal school proper and the Training school is efficiently carried on. In this connection it is proper to say that one of the greatest dignities experienced by the Normal soft, J1 is the finding and securing of competent professionally trained teachers. A Notinil school is a* school for the professional tmining of teachers. Manifestly the teachers in such a school taust themselves possess the highest professional attainments. A Normal school must select as its teachers persons of thorough and liberal scholastic training, of sound educational views acquired by the study of education in all its phases{ and of ascertained and demonstrated skill in the actual work of the school room. Such jjensons hold the most remunerative educational positions in the country, and to secure their services the

Normal H-hool must 1)6 able to ofier a compensation not below that which can be obtained bv them elsewhere."

The statistical table presented shows the past two years to have been the most prosperous in every wav in the school's history. The vrhoie number of students for the year ending October 31, 18S9, was Ui8 for*the year ending October 31,1890, 1 0011. And this Growth has been made notwithstanding there is a constant and gradual advance in the standard of work done. Kightv-six of the ninety-two counties of the state have been represented in the school in the last two years. The counties' not represented are Brown. IVKalb, Porter, .Stark, Steuben and I'nion.

The students are prompt, industrious, persevering and earnest in their efforts to acquire an education. They come largely from the farm and laboring classes, and have habits of industry and activity that are of the highest service to the student."

Under "The present needs of the school," the statement is made that its most pressing need is a larger teaching force. An advanced course of two years for graduates is urged. The need of more room is brought to the attention of the trustees by the president, and the necessity for anew building for science purposes is urged.

The reports of the boards of official visitors for each of the two years is appended to that of the president of the school. These reports are in the highest degree commendatory to the management of the institution and the work done in its various departments.

The report* of the secretaries give an itemized account of the receipts and expenditures for all purposes for the two fiscal years ending October 31, 1800.

The report of Treasurer McKeen shows the report for the year ending October 31, 1890, to have been $170,3t5.18 and the expenditures to have been about $40,000 lees. For the year ending October 31,1890, the receipts nave been $7G,130.91 disbursements §59,555.55, leaving a balance now in the treasury* of $16,581.30.

The report shows the State Normal school to be one of the most economically managed of the state's institutions, and reveals the fact that, both financially and educationally, it is in a sound, healthy condition.

CONGRESS TO-DAY. nlon 1)111.

WASHINGTON, D. C., December 5—In tlio house the joint resolution authorizing the loan of arms to the states of North and South Dakota, Wyoming and Nebraska was taken up immediately after the .reading of the journal and after being amended, so as to include Montana, was agreed to. A motio% waa then made to suspend consideration on the pension appropriation bill and proceed with the calendar. The speaker announced that this could only be done by a vote of tho house. The vote resulted iu a defeat of the motion. On motion of Peters tomorrow was set aside for the consideration of bills from the Indian committee.

Discussion on the pension appropriations bill was resumed, Yaux taking the floor. The debate continued and was participated in by a large number of memberg on both sides of the house. The probabilities are that a vote will be obtained on the bill this afternoon.

ANOTHER TRIAL FOR IVES-

The Indictment* ARRlnut tl»« Toting Napoleon Will Sot be IM*ml»»ed NKW YORK, December 5.—District Attorney Fellows has received a communication from the officers of the Cincinnati, Hamilton fe Dayton railroad, in which they object to the dismissal of the eight indictments against Henry S. Ives, George H. Stavner and Henry W. Woodruff, and profess a willingness to co-oper-ate in the further prosecution. Mr. Parker had conferred with Colonel Fellows, and learned that the latter will not consent to the granting of the motion of lawyer Charles W. Brooke that the indictments be dismissed on the ground of a lack of prosecution. Ives was tried in September last on the indictment charging him with a f600,000 overissue of the stock of the road. The jury disagreed, standing ten for conviction and two for acquittal. Colonel Fellows will not only decline to have the indictments dismissed but will in probability ask that an early day le set for the trial of Ives.

Bonnder*.

There wairmuch excitement on the streets lastw night about II o'clock, the hour set for the taking effect of the King ordinance. The police were busily engaged in ranging their forces in order *.W no guilty man should escape, while the saloon men were .equally as active. It was the plan of the latter to hire a number of bartenders so that should one be arrested second could take his place and should the second be arrested a third should step up to the bar, and so on. Each of these men were to give bond as fast #3 arrested and ihns make a travesty of the law. There was considerable activity at police headquarters at roll call whe& Superintendent Davis instructed the men to enforce the ordinance to the lette^. The superintendent had gotten wind of the saloon men's scheme to have relay bartenders on hand in case any arrests were made and instructed his men accordingly. No arrests were to be made for violations of the King ordinance, but the patrolmen Bhould take the names of those who violated the ordinance and of persons in the saloon at 11 o'clock and keep them for the purpose of filing complaints. But in case of any violation of the state law by the selling of intoxicating liquors the offender was to be arrested at once. The patrolmen were further instructed that each man would be held responsible for the enforcement of the law in his district and that the sergeants would not be held accountable. Superintendent Davis further stated that any failure to carry out his orders would cost the officer who so failed his badge. With these instructions the patrolmen marched out to their beats.

Not far either way from the hour of 11, with but barely three exceptions, it is reasonable to assert that every one of the 140 or 150 saloons in the city were closed, in accordance with the provisions of the King ordinance and the orders issued by Superintendent Davis. The trio of gentlemen who apparently offered themselves as sacrifices for the purpose of affording an opportunity of testing the legality of the Ordinance in the courts were Dan Fasig. Barney Greggs, of West Main street, and Joe Greggs, of South Third. About midnight Sergeant Hyland walked into Joe Greggs' saloon, whtfre he found the proprietor behind the bar and four customers, or would-be customers, standing idly near at hand. The sergeant bid Greegs a polite "good evening." 'Well, what are you going to do about this closing business?" asked the proprietor, an unmistakable smile passing over his countenance. "Why we are going to arrest you tomorrow and those we find in your saloon after 11 o'clock. You can depend on that." Dangers On, ror tuey iuruicumi«r quished as if by magic and Greggs shortly after closed his establishment for the night. Barney Greggs' place was open all nigbt while the balance of the "West End sateons closed up tighter than a drum. The loafers who are tolerated around the all nigbt rum dives of Gallantine who spend their dimes and nickels for tho liquid death dealt out over the bars of those pitfalls are allowed to sleep off their the saloons where they buy their were compelled to drill out chilly night and seek other stamping ground. As they would pass oy Barney Greggs' wide open saloon they would turn wistful eyes toward the bright interior, but they did not venture to enter, for this class of bums and loafers have never been allowed to make Barney's place an abiding place.

At Fasig's the saloon and approaches were crowded by a curious—a most nondescript crowd of men most of them exceeding dry all of them extremely anxious to find out what was going to "turn up." Patrolman Stoecker at the front stood and recorded the names of about 75 men who entered the place after 11 o'clock. Circulating among the crowd was Proprietor Fasig, smiling, good-natured, but not altogether easy. Behind the bar in immaculate white linen two bar tenders were kept busy serving up pop, ginger ale, cider, lemonade and eiaare, while from a big Tom and Jerry bowl, in little Tom and Jerry mugs patrons of beef tea were dealt out to those who called for something "that." Such a business as was done over the bar of the "health office" last night, has not characterized the trade of that establishment for many a day. Sofas as careful observance could determine not a thimble full of intoxicating liquors was sold and it is needless to say that many a disgusted "rounder" went out from the brilliancy af the "health office" into the gloomy night whollv ill at ease. One enthusiastic ice man pulled from his pocket a big pint flask of liquor and passed it around among several of his friends in the saloon, but this was the only deviation from the diy and uninteresting order of procedure in the place. Councilman Storz, of the Sixth ward, complacently smiled and joked with the genial Councilman Weldele, of the

Fourth, and Soul®, the census man. also attorney for the liquor dealers, was anof the crowd. The saloon was

A HUSBAND'S OUTRAGE.

lie Abandon* it G«od Wife For the Painted Shadow. At 317 North Ninth street for some time J. E. Browning and wife have had rooms. He is a railroad man and has long been employed by the E, & T. H. company, latterly as freight conductor on the Alum Cave branch. Mrs. Browning is an attractive, ladylike woman, ana since she came here has made many friends and is thoroughly well resoected by theme who have become acquainted with her. Browning has for some time past treated his wife shamefully as will transpire when the present complication in which he has involved himself shall be unraveled at the bar of justice. Mrs. Browning, for many days, had realized that her husband had been doing wrong. Day after day and night after nigbt he has failed to return to his wife, leaving her in her rooms, lonely and unattended and withholding from her even, enough money to pay her room rent or provide herself with the common necessaries of life.

Mrs. Browning finally run her recreant husband down into the lair of the Circe who had, by her blandishments, blindec! him tol sense of right and manhood, and dftwi him away from a good and true y.WTvho had never failed in her duty to him. This specimen of humanity provec to be Mary Tucker, the notorious brazen faced cypriau, who has already been credited with having* broken up three homes *in this city. In the den of this wretch, Mrs, Browning found her husband. Browning's wife, with tears in her eyes and with earnestness, such as only a loving wife could feel, besought him to leave the den and return home with ker. She told him she would forgive all the wrong he had heaped upon her if he would only take her home and try to do right. The man, with outrageous nonchalence and in a most contemptably offhand manner, informed the trembling, pitiable woman, that he. was "quite well satisfied" where he was. To this gross indignity he invited his suffering wife to take off her bonnet and shawl" and "remain awhile." Finally Mrs. Browning persuaded the brute to accompany her back to their rooms with the understanding, however, that he should be permitted to return to the Tucker dive. This the man actually did, leaving his wife half fainting ai»d wholly prostrated from her burden of grief and outrage.

Mrs. Browning after this wretched occurrence, by the wholesome ad vice of several friends, invoked the assistance of the police authorities and last night Sergeants Trail and Hyland, having awaited favorable opportunity went to the Tucker house and there found Brewning and his vile paramour in 9 compromising situation. They were compelled to dree sand in the patrol wagon were rolled through Main street, where locked up and slated "adultery." ®his man Browning, among railroad men who have known him for years has borne a bad reputaion. As a matter of fact. this is the fellow," remarked an ola railroader last night, "whose train cut both legs off a poor ,irl down on the Alum Cave branch not ong ago, Browning then having the suffering creature pulled all over the branch before taking ner where she could be reated."

the Galloway restaurant where her husband and she had taken their meals. The case is an outrage against society and if Browning and Mary Tucker go unwhipped of justice then will the community have been more grossly outraged.

The "paintedjsbadow" has several disgraceful affairs of this character charged against her. Her correct name is Lottie Cowan. She came here from Wortliington a few years ago with a man well known here and who finally abandoned her. He lias, until a short time since, had charge of the gambling annex of a West Side saloon. At the hour of going to press the case is receiving a preliminary hearing in the Mayor's court.

The Power* Entertainment. Iceland T. Powers gave a delightful entertainment at Normal hall last night, it being the second number of the Normal lecture course. Mr. Powers stands preeminent as an impersonator and his presentation of David Garrick was an almost faultless mimicry of the several characters of the piece from the opening to the close. In the intermission? Mrs. Powers rendered several pleasing vocal selections which tlicited hearty applause. She responded to the encores gracefully and the audience was highly pleased with the entertainment throughout Mrs. Powers played her own accompaniments. She has a voice of wondrous power and scope and full of rich melody. The hall was crowded to its utmost capacity. Senator Voorhces will deliver the next lecture of the course some time in January.

Garbage Contract Iet

Tho council met, pursuant to adjournment, at the city attorney's office last evening, to let the garbage contract After the meeting had been called to order it was remarked that the contract could only be let at a meeting held in the council chamber. The meeting voted upon the bidden and decided to let the contract for tb6 North Side to Wm. Gilkerson, And for the opposite to 8cott Bandy, the same subject to the approval of the council at its next meeting. The contracts were for three years, Gilkerson's being $1,240 per year or $3,750 for the three vears, and Bandy being ?l,i00 per year or $3,600 for the three years.

Conflicting Reports Concerning the Revolt of the Interview*—The Remil Will Soon Be Kaova--

Othcr 9few« To-dajr.

LONDON, December 5.—It appears that after the rejection of the Clancy com promise resolution by the anti-Parnellite majority yesterday in caucus, a new and amended draft of the resolution was presented at a full meeting which resulted in the appointment of a committee to wait upon Gladstone. A conference was held this morning between Gladstone, Sir William Harcourt and Morley, at which the advisability of receiving a'committee was discussed'. Sir William and Mr. Morley, it is said, objected to such a course, saying it looked like a surrender and the Lil-eral party would resent it if Gladstone thought otherwise. He deemed it adv|nbifi to receWte a committee and agree ro omtf modified proposals. The result of the conference is that Gladstone has appointed to-night to meet the delegates oFthe committee of the Nationalists members.

A preliminary conference—was held this afternoon between Gladstone and a delegation of Irish members. Secrecy was enjoined as to what passed, and there are various reports as to the, result Friends of Gladstone say he refused to accept the proposals of the delegates in toto. He sugecsted conditions to the delegates, who have returned to the par liament building and are now consulting their colleagues. According to another report from the Irish source a majority of Nationalists are satisfied at the rcguit of the conference. Gladstone said he would make a genuine eflort to deal with the constabulary and land questions in a manner to satisfy the Irish representatives.

When the meeting of the Nationalist party to consider the question of Parnell's leadership re-assembled at noon to-day, thero was a full representation of the party present It was announced the committee appointed to wait on Gladstone had not returned and adjournment was taken till 4 o'clock, pending th^£ arrival. 'ij) Nationalist members resumed the

me^ng at 4 o'clock. After hearing the report of the delegation to Gladstone they rescinded the Clancy compromise resolution, and acting on Gladstone's suggestion empowered their delegates to treat with him on the agrarian and constabulaij questions, future negotiations to be omcial. The meeting will re-as-semble at 9 p. m.

Manning on the Manlfeato. LONDON, December 5. —The Chronicle publishes an interview with Cardinal Manning in which he savs his opinion iB admirably expressed by the manifesto issued by the Irish hierarchy, which he

believes, will gain influence, because it took due time to consider the uestion before issuing the manifesto. He ought the manifesto would carry great stressed, both politically and morallv, aut Parnell's retirement should be maue compulsory on moral grounds, politics being a secondary consideration. Parnell's followers, however, were justified in demanding his resignation on political grounds alone.
