The habit Of the American tourist of

migrate from the seaboard Of Southern

Stacking breeze, a dry healthful climate,
a multiplicity of fruits, sky always

hotel where 90 degrees in the shade
was the rule rather than the exception,

WHERE Is BURNS AT?
Both the City and the Street Railroad Com.
pany Claiming His Services.

There is something wrong somewhere.
and IL is oil about Street Commissioner
Burns. 1t was stated several days ago that
he had handed In bis resignation, to take
effect at once, for the reason that be ex.
pected 10 accept a position with the CIti-
zens' Street-railwsy Company. but he has
shown up at work at the city office as
usual, and himself says that lie does not
know whether or not it Is OF will be true.
Thursday director in the Citizens COM
pany said that Mr.. Burns had accepted the
compaDy's offer. and that he would 60 to
work for the company on Friday morning
Friday morning came, and Mr. Burns was
still working for the city. and. what is
more, from all the information that could
be gained. he Is liable to continue working
fOrit. Martin Murphy. who is slated as
his successor. said yesterday that he knew
that Mr.. Burns had not accepted the Citi-
Zens' company q offer. and said that he did
not know that he would.
but ore OF the directors says that he is
going with the company" was suggested.
He is talking through his hat and that
Is nil there Is about it," quoth Mr.. Murphy.
lt IS understood that the reason that Mr..
Burns does not close up his contract with
the Citizens people Is because they will
not put clause in 1t specifying how many
years il is 20 last. He does not care to give
up has position with the city for an uu-
certainty, and the city is not anxious for
him to leave.

OLD BROAD RIPPLE GAS COMPANY.
History of It's ORGANIZATION Recalled by the
Recent Deal with The Consumers Trust

As noted In Fridays Journal, the
Consumers Trust Company has made
an arrangement with the Union Loan and
Trust Company owned by the family of J.
NJ. Westcott, of Richmond. whereby the
payment of the bonds due in September of
this y ear. amounting to Sl25.0O0. are to be
paid in deferred installments. The CON-
Dany paid Mr.. Westcott g.. 1000 on Thurs
day. and will pay $4,000 more on Nov. /.
The balance is to be paid in lnstallments
of SO. 900 until paid. The interest is to run
on at the same rate The purpose of the
company in choosing to defer the liqulda-
ton of these bonds IS TO give sufficient
funds TO mako some large-siZed extensions
in the gas iield. The plan is to increa6e
the supply into the field which falls to IL
in the recent division OF the territory
among the gas companies operating In the
belt
Mr.. Westcott was the first to pipe gas
into this city. 1t IS we'll known that he al
ways has large amount of ready money
on hand. anu III the first days of the dis
cOyery of gas IN tdis State he was inter
ested N a company proposing 70 organize
TO pipe gas To Richmond from the Anderson
field. Some Disagreement arose among the
leading Capitalists ID the company as 10 the
amount of stock each should have and the
project fell through. Mir. Westcott always
Insists upon controlling interest IN every
thing in which he invests Having large
sum ready for such investment he came TO
Indianapolis and bought the gas wells at
Broad Ripple. The right of way was secured
into the city. the principal main leading
south on Illinois street The company,
W ich operated wholly on Westcott money
made extensions and romIiicatious until
there were twenty miles of mains giving
service OF gas In the city The demand.
however, became more than Mr.. Westcott
desired 10 supply. considering tho amount
required to pipe the streets and he sold OUT
to- the Consumers company, sustaining
something of loss. Il have dropped

day after disDosing of his plant. but
where lost 81 there will make g. this
year somewhere else" The terms of the
sale included bonds to the amount of $685.
600. and IL is these that figure In the
arrangement perfected ABOVE related.
1t Is said that the company has the money
with which 10 pay the bonds. but chooses
TO spend it In making improvements.

lsNOw Progressing with Full Force.

Sir. r. J. Pennington. the inventor of the
air ship patents. was at the Bates yester-
day on his way To Chicago from Cincin-
natl. The Journal was misinfOrmed as
10 the alleged connection OF Zimri Dwig-
gins with the air ship company. sir. Pen
DIngtOn says that neither Dwiggins nor
the Starbucks had anything to do with
the air ship scheme; that they neither held
nor disposed of any OF the company's stock.
Dwiggins has no connection whatever
with the air ship company, which includes
among its stockholders some of the best
known financial men of Chicago. Mr..
Pennington says that he did not even
know Dwiggins until "a short time ago.
when he was introduced 10 him.
Mr. Pennington further states that every
test OF his patent has been satisfactory. A
year ago last summer tests were made at
81. Louis. AMI they showed the aerial ma
chine capable Of making q speed of sixty
miles an hour. Tests were made for this
full distance of sixty miles. The company

work Is going on with Il full force of men

OF buying the Pennington patents held by
the company of which Nr. Pennington is
at the head. The company has patents in
thirty-two countries. The propellIng pow
er of these machines is furnished by Ignit-
Ing gas drawn into the cylinders of the

During the CHILEAN Hurry Secretary
Tracy consulted the officers of the com
