TALE OF LOVE AND MISERY.
Ignominious End of Young Mr.. Thrasher's Eff
fort to Win q ~Haughville Girl

j. B. Thrasher is a young man residing In
H~aughville. He wanted to win the af-
fections of q girl residing at No. eco
West Washington street, but found an
other was reigning In the girls heart. The
object of his unrequited love had fire.
quently expressed, in his hearing, an admi-
ration for a brave and courageous man.
Thrasher decided upon a heroic plan for
winning the girls heart. In his I'M
%sgination he pictured. to his no.
ageous man, and acted according
ly. Drawing copiously from dime novel
literature he conceived the idea of posing
rs a sleuth-hound and "a terror to evil
would have it, When his little work of
fiction was entirely completed he betook
himself to the home of his love. and In q
moment OF confidence, ~superinduced by his
abundance of affection, he pretended TO un-
bosom himself to the darling he longed for.
After obtaining q solemn promise from her
not to betray tie confidence. he informed
her that he was one OF the sleuth-hOunds
tective agency OF Chicago. and that he was
hot upon the trail of Tascott, the
murderer of Smell, the banker, and that
the trail led HIM to this city. At this point
In the narrative the couple were disturbed
by o noise at the door, as if some one were
eavesdropping. Now was the chance of o
lifetime, and Thrasher was not slow to
seize the opportunity of displaying his
bravery. With q voice terrific In its force
and the style of q Park Theater tragedian
he called out. Who's therei"
There was no reply. and In o tone more
terrific than before he exclaimed: AN
swer and disclose your identity or ] will
shoot" At this point the girl who was the
Inspiration for all his show OF bravery, be-
gan to tremble in fear of the consequences,
and implored the valiant pseudo-de tective
to refrain from any warlike demonstration.
For my sake don't shoot" she begged.
She bad touched the tender spot in the
brave heart. and with O manner now risen
to the degree of seoond-class tragedy, he
replied, For your sake. my darling, | will
spare him."
An Investigation on q more peaceable
basis was begun, and when the door was
opened there was no one on the other side.
In a few minutes, however, the hated rival
oe tho pretended sleuth-hound appeared
upon the scene in company with two Off
GERS. who placed Thrasher under arrest for
personating an officer. and he was led
forth in IRnoble defeat, and took passage
for the police station in the patrol wagon.
while the triumphant rival remained upon
the scene to WOO the girl. The search of
the prisoner at the police station developed
the fact that Thrasher had NJ dangerous
weapon. not even a pocket-knife. He was
arraigned in the Police Court yesterday
morning, and after q hearing of the case
was told to go and sin no more"

STREET-CAR MEN SUSPENDED.
They We're Stopping Their Cars st a Saloon
to Take an Occasional Drink.

There IS more trou BILE in street-car circles.
Five motormen and conductors on the
North Indianapolis line have been laid off
because Of the report from sroad officer that
they had stopped their cars long enough to
go into Monroe's road-house and get q
drink. The men and their friends are in
dignaut at beng laid off, and say that the
road otficers themselves, when out with the
salt car q few days ago. stopped the car in
front of the road-house and went into the
place. not only long enough to get one drink,
but long enough TO delay travel on the line
to the extent OF holding two Jars ia wait
ing for them.
Eugene Conner, one of the men laid off.
was so indignant at the action of the road
officers in reporting the men for what they
themselves were guilty of that he went to
the transfer car with an accumulation of
blood In his eye. vowing vengeance upon
the whole lot. He stayed around the trans
fer car, swearing he would kill the first
road officer that showed himself. The road
officers got win of Connoris presence. and
not one of them showed himself at the
transfer car all day.

MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT.
Defects Of Existing Systems, with Suggestions
That Would Work Desirable Changes.
,e Editor OF the indianapolis Journal:

To the Editor OF the Indianapolis Journal
The great weakness of the present plan
of city government is the ward system.
Abolish ward lines entirely in the smaller
cities and reduce the number of wards in
the large cities to about one-third and q
very great and practical advance has been
made. Add minority representation and
still another important forward stop has
been taken. Two new general but
straightforward and business.like meth
DDS of governing cities are attracting
some attention. The first is government
by a commission of three, this commission
TO have very large power, to be elected by
the voters. and the minority TO have n rep
resentation ON the board. This 10 q simple,
direct and responsible form OF government
and has many advocates. OF course it
means the abolition of the election of all
the city officials except the board. The
other plan Is q modification of the present
Indiana plan. Under it oil election
officers. except Mayor and council
given absolute power of appointing all
other city officials, and has a veto DOW or
that can only be overcome by twO.thirds
of the Council The Council is to be COM
posed of six or nine persons, there TO be
elected each year from the city at large. on
the minority representation plan. This
Council is to have no voice whatever in the
choice of minor officials except those need
ed for ite own service-such as clerk, jana-
ter, etc. The business of the Couuc is
levying of taxes. approprlstirg money for
the use OF the various departments. order
ing street and sewer improvements, and
such other general duties as naturally fall
TO the lot of such n legislative body.
Each of these plans contemplated q strict
civil-service system In the various city de-
partments; no bipartisan board business
to be tolerated. merit alone to decide the
tenure of minor officials. Under either one
than thirty Thousand population can be
admirably governed. With either of these
systems in operation the very best citizens
in any city would be glad to be identified,
and ward bummers would be r~elegated to
the rear. GEO. b. CARDwILL.

FOR SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE
Cullop HIS Strongest Opronent-Mstthews
Coming Back Out Of the Woods
Railway Employees.

The friends of Captain Curtis in the
Legislature count with certainty upon his
omin alton for Speaker on the first ballot
in the caucus. The number of Democrats
In the lower House is sixty-three, thus
making thirty-two votes necessary to q
choice. 1t is learned yesterday by o Jour-
nal reporter from two sources that Curtis
has forty members pledge to him. There
is scarcely any doubt that the speakership
plum will fall to the Marion man. With
good political sense the Marion county
delegates early agreed to 60 into no
combinations for any other Office
under the GIFT of the majority. and
they have RETAINED from compllcating
Curtis's interests by refusing to encourage
any other Marion county candidate.
The CulIop party has been handicapped
by an impression that their chief had two
strings 10 his bow. and that his interest in
the speakership is second to his aspirations
TO succeed Hon. Smiley n. Chambers as
United States district attorney. The Curtis
leaders have used this double situation
with good effect. The latter profess to
have no fear whatever that Alder can mus
of Secretary of the Senate. Clerk of the
House and D~oor-keeper, will fall to other
counties.

The legislative committee of the railway
employees organizations will meet at tht

The Oberlin Glee Club will give one en-
rtaInmen at Plymouth Church Saturday
evening. New Years eve. This club of sing
ers comes with the highest commentator
from all the newspapers in the large cities
where they have appeared during the past
ten days. Students sing more at Christ

heart the better the time and their hearers
are better listeners han at any other time.
These singers were chosen from five hun
dreG students attending the Oberlin Col
lege conservatory of music. each member
being selected for his special fitness for the
place he was to fill. They are not simply
singers for the week or ten days during the
holiday season. but they sing the year
