A MAPLE DINNER IN JAPAN.

Gently at the Maple Club in Toxic both
members and guests arrived in jim
rikshas They sat down on the en-
trance stairs and removed their boots
On entering the guests were presented
with art books bound in yellow silk.
The Maple Club they found to be very
much maple; ceilings and floors were
off the wood; white-silk panels and the
little charcoal stoves were all orna-
mented with maple leaves. One dado
had them in spring tints, another in
autumn colors, and even the balcony
had a maple-leat baIustrade.
The dining room was covered with
thick, soft mating, but was quite limo,
cent of furniture. Big silk cushions
were the substitutes for chairs The
guests did their best to sit down on
their heels, native fashion, and were
then served with washy-looking, but

without sound, glidsd up to the guests,
dropped on their knees and continued

white cakes wrapped in delicate ric,

longer. Then came live fish, whit

HIS QUEER HALLUCINATION
Man Who Thinks He Is Blamed for All
That Is Bad in the World.

Early yesterday morning neatly-attired
man. apparently about thirty-five years of
age, wearing a valuable diamond ring and
a heavy gold watch chain. appeared at the
turkeys office at police headquarters and
related a queer story, which, before 1t vas
completed, led the officers to believe that
the stranger was mad. He gave the name
of George Goshen, and said that he had
arrived here from Chicago a few days ago.
His purpose in seeking the police station
ne said was for protection. He further
stated that he was formerly a resident OF
Indianapolis, and once was a saleman in
the carpet house OF A. l.. Wright, former
merchant here Goshen informed the Of
fcers that his relatives all live here, but
he refused TO tell who they We're.
His imagination was wild and feverish,
and made him the victim Of the most alb
surd fears, principally among which was
the idea that he is wanted for all the thiev-
ing that has been done here for months. He
believes that whenever an accident hap
pens he is blamed for II, and says that his
only safety Is with the police. While re-
lating his woes, Goshen's attention was
attracted 10 a fire burning in the alley
Now, there IL is" he remarked. IF /
wasn't right here L would be blamed for
that fire" He was given quarters In the
station last night and Police Surgeon carp
called TO see him. In the opinion OF the
physician, the unfortunate man is suffering
from an inordinate indulgence OF some pow
erflIl drug.

NEW CITY ENGINEER
Charles E. Brown, a Professor i'm
a New York College, Chosen.
City Attorney Scott Gives an Opinion
in the Election-Bill Cases-Board
OF Health Meets.

Charles G. Brown. formerly of this city,
but now resident of Schenectady, n. Y,
was yesterday appointed city civil engineer
by Mayor Denny, to succeed II. A. Mans
field He qualified at once with Circuit
Judge Edgar Brown and Francis Hord as
sureties on bond for s., 900. He then took
charge of the Office. Mr.. Brown will re-
main in the city for a short time and then
return to New York to settle his affairs
before again taking up his residence in
this city He holds the chair of civil en-
gineering in Unicn College, and is con-
sulting engineer on the State Board of
Health of The Empire State. He is a son
or George p. Brown, for many years the
drawing teacher in the Indianapolis schools
and is nephew of Judge Edgar Brown.
He is also son-in-law of A. p. Stanton
the law partner of City Attorney Scott.
Mr.. Brown is eminently qualified to fill
his new position, and comes highly recon-
mended by engineering authorities of New
York His special line of work has been
in the construction of sewers. although he
has had wide experience in pavement en-
cheering. Schenectady has been expert
menting for several years with different
pavements and Mr.. Brown has been called
in by the Common Council of that city as
a consulting engineer. He graduated from
the High School of this city In 1873, and
afterwards graduated at the University of
Michigan Then he became connected with
the lake survey, under charge of the gov
eminent, with headquarters at Detroit.
When the work of the survey was COM
pleted, after forty years of labor, Mr.
Brown was the last of the employees and
the duty devolved him of locking the
office for gooo and throwing the key in the
lake. Then he became connected with the
New York State survey until that was
completed, when he accepted q professor
ship at Rose Polytechnic School at Terre
Haute. His next step to take the
chair which he is now filling at Union Col
lege.
In New York all villages must submit
the plans of their sewer sanitation to the
State Board of Health, and it was a part
of Mr.. Browns duties to examine these
plans and pass upon them. He has given
a great deal of attention to the water sup
plies of cities, and was ore of the men who
discovered the new method of purifying
the water supplies of cities. This method
is based upon the manner of determining
the exact proportion of animal and vege-
table substances in water and their effect
upon human organisms. This knowledge
will be of great value to him in his duties
in this city. He has not yet determined
upon the changes in the office here. Mr..
Will Allen, who has been the able assist
ant to City Engineer Mansfield, will leave,
this week, for a months fishing in the
lakes of northern Indiana

Buck" Harlan Among Them.

William Miller, prominent young man
OF Eminence, Morgan county, was arrested
by Deputy United States Marshal Stewart
yesterday on charge of passing counter
felt money. The prisoner gave bond for
his appearance before the grand jury Mar
shall Hawkins yesterday morning went to
Kokomo, where he arrested Henry Ring
boldt, who is also charged with counter
feiting. The prisoner was given a prelim-
mary hearing before United States Com
missioner Emmitt and while the trial was
In progress the officers brought in a motor
ious crook and counterfeiter named Buck
Harlan. The latter was recently a resident
OF Shelbyville and enjoys the distinction of
being a first cousin Of the famous "Babe"
Hawkins Commissioner Emmitt placed the
bond of both men at $1,000.
Ringboit could not give bond and was
placed I'm the Noblesville jail Harlan gave
a $1,000 bond for his appearance. Immedi-
ately after he had executed the bond he
was rearrested upon the charge of carry
ing concealed weapons; he having hidden
two ugly-looking pistols upon his person

ing unable to pay or stay a fine of $l6

service officials believe that Harlan is the
leader of gang that has flooded Upton

halves and quarters. They consider the
capture good one.

NEW WESTERN LEAGUE
indianapolis Looms Up at the
First Meeting in Chicago.
Western Cities Clamoring for Admis-
sion-A Committee to Consider Their
Claims-A Meeting i'm November.

The baseball fever in the West has set In
again. even while old Boreas is beginning
TO take invoice of his winter stock A
meeting was held in Chicago yesterday to
organize a Western league, and 1t would
seem that Indianapolis is to have a team
next year from the following dispatch re-
ceived from Chicago last night:
ITO judge by the intense interest of
crowd Of baseball enthusiasts that thronged
the corridors of the Grand Pacific Hotel
all day to-day the Western League will
open with a boom next year. This year
there has been no Western league and the
enthusiasts have forgotten the trials and
tribulations of former seasons with the re-
suit that nearly every town west of the
Alleghenies is striving for admission in the
proposed association. Milwaukee, Toledo,
Kansas City, Indianapolis and Minneapolis
got in on the ground floor by undertaking
the organization Of the league for next sea-
Messrs. Henry Killelea and Charles
Cushman, of Milwaukee; John S. Barnes, of
Minneapolis; James H. Manning, of Kansas
City; ID. A. Long, of Toledo, and John T.
Brush, of Indianapolis, were the gentlemen
who sat in judgment on the teams which
will compose the league. st. Paul was on
the front bench of applicants. St Paul had
70 contenu Win MlnnedpOilS, ALREADY III the
deal, and anticipated a hard fight in get
ting club SO close to one already selected.
A. Beck presented the claim of Sioux City,
George Clabaugh was present from Denver,
w. S. McCoul wanted franchise for Jol-
let, @. A. Vanderbeck, of Los Angeles, was
willing to take a franchise anywhere he
could be placed, and his ACCOMPLISHMENTS
as manager were presented to President
j. A. Hart, of the Chicago club Detroit
was considered an available point, and had
no representative present. Both gentlemen
were willing to organize there If franchise
could be secured. Additional applications
were received from Columbus, Lincoln,
Rockford and st. Joseph. So great were
the demands that the idea of organizing at
once was abandoned, and all applications
were referred to a committee consisting Of
Charles Cushman, John 5. Barnes and
James A. Manning.
This committee will call meeting not
later than Nov. 10 for organization. Secre-
tary Long said: 1T is not settled that the
five cities represented at the meeting have
a cinch on the situation. We propose to
select the eight cities that present the
strongest advantages and backing, ire
spective of those forming to-days con-
gress.' The gentlemen on the outside gave
Mr. Long credit for talking at random, and
said but three others would be chosen, and
that the choice would be Detroit, st. Paul,
Lincoln and Sioux City,"

HIS FIRST OPINION.
City Attorney Scott PASSES Upon the
Exorbitant Election Bills.

City Attorney Scott yesterday informed
Controller Trusler that he could so behind
the returns OF the election commissioners
in allowing bills for the recent election,
including the salaries of officers and the
bills for meals and supplies. Mr.. Scott
gave it as his opinion that the inspectors
were only entitled to three days pay and
the judges, clerks and sheriffs one day
each. The canvaSsing board allowed the
inspectors six days EACH and the other Of
fcers three days each. This will make big
saving for the city and shut off any future
attempt to loot the city treasury by cleo
1t is also held that the inspectors cannot
charge for more than twenty-one meals
for the entire board, as the law does not
provide meals for the inspectors or mem
bers of the election board the day the
vote is being canvassed. The controller
also has the right, and he will exercise it,
of examining the officials under oath as to
the expenditures.

THAT PLUMBING INSPECTOR.
The City Charter Does Not Provide
for a License Fee.

a member OF the Plumbers Union called
on Controller Trusler yesterday and pro-
tested against any change in the office of
plumbing inspector. He said that it was
the intention OF the union I'm urging the
creation OF the office TO have the fees
amount TO sufficient to pay the inspector
his salary. Yet the plumbing inspector,
this winter, il he continue I'm office, will
have an easy time of sitting back in his
chair and drawing 1925 a month from the
city for doing nothing. The office has been
perfect sinecure. 1t will probably be
abolished.
The charter does not provide for license
for a plumbing permit, and the city has
no more right to charge for such permit
than Il has to- charge man for using "a
baby buggy or papering his walls. IL Is
not believed that the ordinance is legal.
