THE HoT WEATHER. The prophet
who predicted that the sun would not
shine as brightly after the eclipse as
before that event, is evidently a false
one. as the intensely warm weather Of

description Of the different degrees of
the heat of yesterday: Hot, hotter,

SCHOOL ENUMERATION. - Prof. j.

enumeration of white children in this
city over the age of six years, which
is as follows:
Number of white children this years, 064
Number of white children last year, 042
Increase this year,. %
Increase last year............. ....'.--.'.'. o5o
The above enumeration does not
include the transfers from the town

We do not know whether any enumer-
alton of colored children is to be
made or not, but there are a large
number in the city.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. UP.-Three lit
tie boys were driving in buggy, yes
terday, belonging to w. NJ. Akin,
ESQ, and were out near the circus
tent in the afternoon, when the horse
suddenly took fright. and started on a
runaway tour. The little boys were
all thrown out, and Master Harry
Akin was slightly hurt on the knee.
The buggy was badly wrecked one
wheel was left near the old Bulls
Head property, and the balance of
the buggy was deposited on the corner
of Eighth and Main Streets. 1t was a
fortunate circumstance that none of
the boys were badly injured.

TERRE .HAUTE OPERA HOUSE. =
Our sister city, Terre Haute, is be-
ginning to put on style" and as one
of the accessories towards the same,
is going to have an opera house. The
contract for the building was awarded
on Thursday to Mr.. James Hook, of
Terre Haute. Quite a number OF
bids we're put in, among others one
from Mr.. Speaker, who did the work
on our opera house; but his bid was
81 900 higher than any other. Inc
basement and walls of the first story
ONLY will be put up this season, and
the building will be completed next
vaar The designs were furnished by
Mr. Vrydagh, architect, of Terre
uonte. The building viii have a
front of 800 feet on Main Street, and
a depth of 138 feet on Fourth Street.
The building will be very similar to
our opera house, and will have stores
underneath, the auditorium being on
the second floor. The hall is ex-
pected to seat from fifteen hundred to
two thousand people. It is to cost
about 100000. We have get fine
opera house IN this city, but it does
us very little good, as it is in general
very poorly patronized. The same
amount Of money invested in good
hotel would give larger returns; at
least we are satisfied such would be
the case in this city. We have some
hopes, however, that a hotel will be
built in this city within the next FIVE
years, for when the new railroads are
completed. new hotel will be neees-
sity. May the day soon come, IS our
earnest wish. cs.-efr o-;s3

THE Police FoRcE.-During the
mast few weeks, burglaries have been
unite frequent, but so far no arrests
have been made. A number of sus-
nicious characters, who were evil
IDENTIFY portion of the gang that has
been operating in this city, have been
made to leave town by the Chief of
Police, who was satisfied that they
were thieves, although no evidence
could be obtained to convict them of
the charge. Our city lately has been
full of suspicious looking strangers,
but as we have only two day police, it
has been impossible to keep watch
over them, and the night police, going
on duty at dark, could have no means
of being posted as to the movements
Of the suspicious looking cusses dur
ing the day.
The day police force is not large
enough. The recent change, whereby
all the police but two are on duty at
night, has not proved a successful ex-
pertinent, and we are Of the opinion
that another change has become
necessary. The idea OF two police
men being able to see all that is going
on in city of over thirty thousand
people, occupying a large expanse Of
territory, IS simply absurd. There
should be enough day police to watch
all suspected persons, who, when re-
lieved in the evening by the night
force, could communicate to them the
result of the days observations. In
this manner the movements Of sus-
pected thieves could be closely
watched, and the police could have
some clue to guide them. But as at
present arranged, the members of the
night force are simply working in the
dark, and they know nsthing Of what
has been done during the day When
ever a house is burg4arized, ADD the
robbers are net arrested the cry goes
out, THE police are Of no. account. "
This city is divided into twelve
"beats," we belieye-large ones, too,
running from the river bank TO
Tenth Shetland while the patrol
is keeping watch over one portion OF
his district, a robbery can be perpe-
trated at another point, and the
policeman be none the wiser.
The great want is more patrols for
day duty and we hope that the Com
mittee on Police, or the City Council
at large, will give the matter their
early attention. aflfv-a.F
