To The Editor of the ST. C,Oiz Bulletin.
Dear Sis
/ am very much surprised, and no less disap-
pointed, to find that among your readers there
are 80 very few persons able to 6nt sufficient
leisure to discuss any subject that might keep
them in touch with litera ure and science.
Ihad fondly hoped that, even if ( ON ordinary
people the subject won d fail to elicit sufficient
interest, among a class Of men like the school.
nAdoGoLo, koOLA4C u WAOAA X NA1A5CA 40 SHO
profe Ssional duties for only 4 few hours duly,
there would have been found at Last three or
four able and willing to take part in a subject
which, in any other country, is considered a
tAvourite theme with men whose special bust.
ness it is to instruct the young; me? who
often forego much personal comfort Eg tho
sake of engaging in discussions that certainly
tend to improve the mind, if even. not to fill
the purse. Must W. then be astonished to
find that boys and girls, shortly aftor leaving
school sell the books, which they had but
recently purchased, and over only a few pages
of which they had glmced?
The writer of these lines ID prepared TO adj
duce facts which have come under. his obser-
walton, to coroborate this statement and as a
remedy for Shis most unsatisfactory state Of
things, dear Mr.. Editor, will with your kind
pc Emission, through your columns propose a
series Of questions Of a historical nature. The
questions, besides afording recreation. will
involve a good deal Of reading and research; and
although this will be a departure faom the
usual course / trust that the benefits sought
will be sufficiently great to jus'ify the limo
walton.
Mean while, / beg to remain
Yours gratefully

Local Council of Women.

In ACCORDANCE with the instructions given
them by the conference held on November
16. concerning the organization of a Lo-
cal Council of Women In this city. the spe-
cial committee appointed at that time have
prepared report of that conference. and
have drafted q constitution for the porposed
council. Copies of these documents have
been sent to every organization of women
in the city known to the committee. 1t is
the desire that these documents be laid be-
fore every so ciety of women. and therefore
the secretary of any society who has not al
ready received them Is cordially requested
TO send the name of her society and her
own name and address to Mrs. May Wright
Scwall, chairman of the special committee,
No. 343 North Pennsylvania street. The
other members of this committee are Annie
Ames Spruance, Hannah Z. Haughey, Fan
ME A. Macbeth and Mary j. Jenckes.
The second conference. al which the final
organization of the council will be effected,
is set for Monday, Feb. /. The intervening
month affords ample time for every society
to give due consideration to this matter.
As forty-nlDe organizations were repre-
sented by delegates at the first conference,
there is reason to believe that the Local
Council of Women ofIndianapolis will from
the outset represent the strongest organ
ICED influence of women. No dIstinctio on
of creed or object Is made by the council,
but all organizations are entitled to equal
representation and will receive an equal
welcome.

BASEBALL TALK.
Efforts Being Made to Get Indianapolis in the
New ssociation-Salary List

r. w. Mcguire. J. w. Speas and Gus.
Schmelz, the committee appointed to FORM
ulate plan for the new Western base ball
league, met yesterday afternoon at the
Yelling Hotel. Chicago. After the confer
ence Mr.. Speas said that the committee had
decided to recommend two things for ap-
prevail. One was that the new ASSOCIATION
shall be given q list of players to select
from. and shall assign them to the differ
emit clubs composing the league. The other
recommendation was that the gate receipts
shall be divided equally between the home
and visiting clu bs. Is per cent. to each club,
and the remaining 10 per cent. to 20 the as
ISOLATION. The committee will probably
meet in Chicago within the next two weeks
to form the league. 1t was rumored yes
terdsy that Toledo and indianapolis will
Join the league. If the former fails to do
so Grand Rapids is ready to take It's place.
Milwaukee is now said to be knocking for
admission to the new league, and will, no
doubt, be taken in. The scramble between
the Hach ana Morton factions in Mime
apolis for place in the league 10 causing
considerable gossip. Morton Is said to
lead, and will probably win on account of
his backing. One of the magnates said
the salary roll of each club in the new as
ISOLATION will probably be So. 500 month,
or S17.5o0 for the season.

NOT A FAD.
That Is What DR.. WoOdburn Says Of the Uni.
versity Extension-His Lecture.

DR.. Woodburn introduced the work Of
the new year in university extension by
giving his class written test consisting of
twenty questions. 1t 10 coming to be more
and more evident all the time that those
who took up this work with the expecta-
ton of it's proving to be snap will be sad
~ left A fair-sized amount of good, hon.
est. hard work will be required to gain
creditable position in 1t. While this fact
may have tendency to lessen the number
who attempt to take this work. 1t certainly
will inure to it's benefit in the long run.
DE-. Woodburn Will certa inly have the
hearty support of all those really interested
In tho welfare of university extension in
his efforts to prevent it from degenerating
into q mere fad.

duced by an extensive excursion into En-
glish politics. Absolutism in leadership is
prominent characteristic of practical En-
glish politics. 1t is, IN fact. an absolute
necessity. The principle of passive obedi.

tics had their origin in l619 The Wing was
progressive, the Tory conservative. The
Wing loved to descant on liberty and the
love of mankind, the Tory on the mischiefs
of sedition and the rights of kings. The
divisions and characteristics of the English
parties were seen I'D those of colonial Amer

In America there have never been but two
parties from the constitutions al stand point.
The one has been sty led tho party of polit-
ical principles. the other of political action.

not fairly be considered implied: they

general government did not possess: they
merged the judicial power with the execu-

Robert Kennington's Money.

the city's portion of the Coburn street
Improvements. amounting to S1.0S5. He was
told that the city was prohibited from pay
ing the money on the order of Norton g.
McFee, attorneys for Hall & Harlan. A
short time later, however, he appeared
bearing an order from Norton & Melee
stating that he had paid oil demands. and
the embargo could be lifted. The board
retained $50 in cash and S629 in bonds. but
paid the balance Mr.. Remington then
asked again for an extension of time on his
Pearl-street contract. He said he was
theatened with lawsuits by the property
owners. This was poor argument, the
board saying 1t didn't want to assume the
burden of the responsibility. The time
was not extended.
