OBJECT TO THE STREET.
West indianapolis Town Board Meets
One Case of Suburban Gambling.

Last nights session of the West Indian
apolis Town Board of Trustees was long and
tedious. The final readings of the town en-
gineer'S estimates of the improvements Of
Lambert street and Sheffield avenue were
heard and approved by the board. A num-
Der of property owners on Sheffield avenue
have demonstrated several times against
certain features OF the Improvement, and
last night they had a last chance at it.
They were represented by an attorney, who
said that the gravel was not according to
specifications; that it was not gravel, but
it was sand. The culverts were not of the
required dimensions. and neither were they
completed. His best argument was that it
was not legal to assess the same cost
against property owners who lived on a
forty-foot street as against those who live
on a sixty-foot street. Attorney S. NJ. Ash
by, employed by contractor McCray, replied
that the gravel was up to grade, that the
culverts were complete and were of the
correct size. In regard to the illegality OF
the noncOnfOrmity of the dimensions of
the street. he cited a case in Fort Wayne
where a street thirty-two feet wide and
forty.two feet wide in two sections, re-
SpectlVely, mad been improved at the same
cost to each half. The case was contested
before the Supreme Court, but the i'm
report showing that there were property
owners on the improved part of Kappes
street assessed to the amount of S40.13 who
wished to take the advantage of the Bar
rett law. The report was accepted, and an
ordinance was passed empowering the
clerk to draw up a bond to cover the
amount.
Among the small number Of bills present.
ed were those of the water company. One
was for the damaging of a fire plug by
the fire department team, and the amount
was $3.50. A bill of 1850 was also pre-
sented by the company. but a part of il,
which amounted to $3.50, was not allowed.
The remainder was ordered paid. The
firemen's salaries for the first half of De-
cember were allowed! The board experi-
enced its weekly dose of paralyzation when
a bill was presented asking the board TO
allow for the printing of some hand bills
which were used to concentrate attention
on a certain annexation meeting that was
held at SpencerS Hall several weeks ago.
j.. y. Porter presented the bill as the leader
in the meeting. but it is needless TO say it
was not allowed. Squire Allen is the au-
thority for the statement that there were
but two present at this meeting, Porter and
one other gentleman.

worked the Little Dnu.

Notwithstanding that the town officials Of
West Indianapolis are claiming that there
is no gambling in that suburb, certain res
idents are loudly proclaiming the fact that
there is. In proof they are citing the case
of Mrs. Louis GlaZier, of Sc River avenue,
who. when her son reported to her that
he had lost SIS at a suspected gambling in
stitution, appeared at the screen and loudly
denounced the institution and town officials.
The facts of the case are as follows: Mrs.
Glaciers son, who is about eight cen years
of age, was sent to the city, Saturday aft
ernoon, to collect a bin of S15. Returning
in the evening he fell in with
several "Shell workers who had sta
toned themselves in the yard in the rear of
Al Hird'S saloon, at the corner of Hadley
avenue and Morris street. Glaciers money
was soon foreign to him, and soon after
came the appearance of his mother. A
Hird heard of the trouble. got track Of the
shell workers." and forced them to return
the money. Marshal Maholm still persists
that there is no public or any known gam
bling house in the suburb.

A MORTGAGE CASE.
Judge Van DyIso Decides Savings Banl

Judge Van Dyke Decides Savings Bank
Suit.
Judge Van Dyke yesterday rendered a
decision in the case OF Savings bank of
Southern California vs. Minerva @. Barr,
James @. Barr and Isabella Thornton,
giving judgment for plaintiff in accord
ance with opinion filed. 1t was a CAGE
in which the defendants Barr mortgaged
certain property to the plaintiff and
afterwards executed deed in form of
grant to Mrs. Thornton. The deed con-
tanned a clause wherein Mrs. Thornton
assumed to pay the mortgage. 1t was
intended as security for loan with the
understanding that if the debt was not
paid by fixed time the title should be-
come absolute in Mrs. Thornton with
out foreclosure, and che should sell the
property and pay plaintiff and herself.
Mrs. Thornton testified that che was
ignorant OF the clause impoeing upon
her the obligation to pay the mortgage,
but the court holds that having had
notice OF the deed executed to her
through her father as agent. she is held
to have had notice of itBcontente and of
the obligation. The court holds that
where deed is intended as mortgage
the assumption by the grantee to pay
the prior mortgage is binding and judg-
ment is given to the plaintiff.
