THURSDAY, MARCH 8,1883

The Polyteebaie laaagaral. At last tbe fond hope of Terre Haute's most muniflcient benefactor, Chauncey Rose, has come to happy fruition. The event of to-day is one of the most auspicious in the history of education and of the future wealth and power of this city. It is a fortunate as well as fitting circumstance, for this school, the first iu the state whose especial object is instruction in practical science, or technology, that here is a wide spread acd lively interes in its success in the city of its foundation. The crowd attending the inaugural today was largely in excess of t*e capacity of the very attractive audience-room built on tbe east side for occasion* of a public character.

The stage was beautifully set with flowers, and a graceful speaker's desk occupied the front.

Before the exercises commenced the audience eagerly scanned the faces of the distinguish^ educators on the stage and of the trustees, through whose intelligent and faithful labors tbe wise benefactions of Mr. Rose have been brought to the happy conclusion he most desired.

Who Tkej Were,.,

Among those on the stage were Pres. ident MOBS, of the State Diversity, who remarked in shaking hands with President Thompson that they had been natives of the same place Dr. White, of Purdue Uuiversity Messrs. Jno. M. Bloss, the Superintendent of Public Instruction and bis associates on the State Normal Board, Joseph Gilbert, Murray Briggs, Barnabas Hobbs and Geo. Reed the speakers of the day, Col. R. W. Thompson, John Eaton, U. 8. Commissioner ol Education, and C. O. Thompson, President of the Polytechnic Jno. R. Elder, iormerly of the State School Board (Thas. T. Noble, who is Vigo's Pioneer teacher having taught school here 57 years ago the entire Normal School faculty and Mr. A. G. Jenckes an exmember of the Polytechnic trustees. Also Pres. W. Mckeen and Supt. W. H. Wiley. Beside these were of course the trustees themselves and ten in number as follows:

JosephusGollett, who presided over the exercises, at his right S. S. Early, C. B. Peddle, Demas Detning, Preston Hussey, General Charles Cruft, Wm Mack, Firmin Nippert, R. 8. Cox and W. A. Jones ex-President of the Normal. Vis itora were also indebted to the faculty who were untiring in their efforts to ma^e the day an agreeable one and to ive all who came the greatest facility br learning of the expected work of the school and the shops.

On Drawing, Prof. Wm. Ames. Supt. shops, Prof. Cobb. In the fall, perhaps sooner, Prof. W a* do will arrive to take charge of the de partment on elementary mathematics and in about a year when the boys have advanced to that point, Prof. Barnes, now at the Jno. Hopkins' University, will arrive to take the chair on higher mathe matics. A chair on modern languages will also he established.

The K^cerciaeat.

After music by the Ringgolds, Rev. Pitman Crofts lead in prayer and then Col. R. W. Thompson, always obliging and ready, though he received only a short notice ana also invariably happy in his remarks delivered an address.

ABSTaACTS OF HIB ADDRESS. Mr. Eaton remarked in opening that the school whose inaugural was being established to-dav was a striking illustration of one of tne best features of Democratic government. It was founded by private benefaction from one of the people. Even Prof. Tvndall has feared that little progress in this direction could be m«de in this country for the want of royal endowments.

The late Mr. Rose, he Mid, was a man who acquired his wealth by persistent effort. He did not coin his soul into dollars, bnt was touched by the condition of his fellows. He visited the houses of maimed and crippled children in New York and was so affected by what he saw that he gave large sums to alleviate their distress, amounting in all to $100,000. He founded this institution of technology that young men may not be fettered and shackled through life by ignorance, but may so learn nature as to have to increase their comforts and pleasures. Those entrusted with tbe execution of his design have done well. They have sought to take advantage of all that tbe world has thus far accomplished in this direction. They have engaged as President one who has both extended knowledge and who has made successful a similar school, and they have sent him to Europe to gain all that may be learr.ed from tbe technological schools there.

After Mr. Eaton had concluded and while the band played, an cess WHS taken. A very excellent lunch had been prepared by Piepenbring in the east room on the second floor ana was partaken with perhaps extra relish because it was free.

Hon. William Mack arose to announce that the exercises of the afternoon would be addresses by President Thompson, the delivery to him of the keys and that some short speeches would be made

THE INSPECTION.

During recess the guests satisfied their curiosity by examining every unlocked "nook and cranny" of the building and also of tbe shops. Tbete shops have so frequently recemd description in the GAZETTB that further comment is not given at this time.

There were short speeches by Pres. Moss of the State University, and Dr. White, of Purdue. Hon. Barnabas C. Hobbs related his experience with lb. Rose and the history of the Polytechnic school in a very interesting manner. The band struck up "Secret Love." The keys to the building were preeented to President Thompson.

Everything passed off verjr pteasantly. President C. O. Thompson delivered the inaugural address in the af ernoonj

It was very long, but was listened to with profound attention. *",!

AN OUTRAGE.

Horrible Double Crime in Texas-

WACO, TEXAS, March 7.—A most hor rible double crime was committed lastnight near Hubbard City, a station on the Texas 4 St. Louis railway, by Tom P. Yamell. A ball was given at the house of a wealthy and respectable farmer named Landa, a new-comer from Wiscon sin, to which Vsmell had been invited Testerday Vernell, with a young man named George Walker, came down to Waco and brought a pistol and ammunition and returned to attend the dance. About midnight Varnell induced one of Landa's daughters, a young woman shout eighteen years old, to take a short walk with him away from the house.

As soon as he thought thl/ wefe at a safe distance he drew the pistol and forced her to go further and finally committed a brutal outrage upon her person, When the two returned the young woman's sister learning what had occured made an outcry and exposure of the crime, when Yarnell drew his pistol and made assault on her. At this point the father, Mr. Landa, made his appearance and ordered the girls into the house, when Vsrnell turned upon him, Shot him through the heart and shot him again as he fell dead. Varnell immoliately made his escape in the darkness accompanied by Walker, who seems to have aided and abetted the crime. Landa's family offer a reward for the murderer, and the governor will be petitioned to supplement it by a proclamation.

LOCAL SELF GOVERNMENT. Replying to the GAZETTE'S strictures on the Metropolitan Police bill the In-., dianapolis News says:

Tou speak of the "guardians of life and property." By these you mean the mayor and council—the machinery of a city government but who creates these guaraians "The city" you will say. But who creates the city? The state. The state is the sole depository of the guardianship of the life and property of citizens. The state's right in this particular is guaranteed by the constitution ot this union. The state never has parted with that right and we trust never wilL It has as a matter of convenience granted the exercise of that right to municipal corporations as its agents, to act for certain specified purposes with certain specified limits and under state laws, but it may withdraw that grant at any time, and may, in consonance .with the rights granted, withdraw not onlv this particular right but all rights and wipe the city itself out of existence as Tennessee did in the esse of Memphis.
