ton 10 the Board of Trustees tomorrow even
ing. The part of the lat er body Is to order the
charter published for twenty days and follow
ing that period order theivote OF the town upon
the charter. The merchants threaten to fight
the charter, as It permits the Trustees TO lax
their business by special licenses. 1t is pointe d
out IN reply that the present special license is
ordered only because sufficient revenue cannot
be obtained with the 50-cenJ tax limit of the
Of the proposed charter there will be no need
of raising money by special taxes, as a suf-
ficient revenue viii be thus obtained. To con-
tinue the present charter voting against the
one proposed, means necessary submission to
the special license, while there il no likelihood
that the discretion left to the board TO levy
special taxes will be abused under the new
charter.

Train R1bb srs Foiled.

CLEVELAND, Aug. Lake Shore
Express train No. y arrived from the
West and puffed into the Union sta,
tion this morning, after having encO-
untered a most thrilling experience on
the plains of Indiana. An attempt was
made last night to hold up the train at
Kessler upon the identical spot that the
train was held up last fall. The train
was just approaching a split sWlch at
Kessler, when the engineer noticed that
the switch was turned so as to run the
train on the siding. \ big obstruction
of ties and lumber was piled upon the
siding few rods ahead OF his engine.
The obstruction did not appear to be
impossible and the engineer put on all
the steam and dashed through the pie
passing safely on the main track
through the switch at high rate of
speed. AS the train passed the OBJ.
stuction the engineer noticed a group
of masked men and as the engine clear
ed the track of all obstacles the would
be highwaymen fired several shots In
to the train, none Of which, however,
took effect. The United States express
car was attached to the train and had
Oh board large amount OF money. 1t
is thought that this was known 20 the
desperadoes who attempted to hold up
the train. Their disappointment IN
carrying out their plaus Of stopping the
train was evincad on their firing shots
when they saw that their plans had
been foiled by the boidness Of the eDgl.
neer ip dashing through the heap Of
ties upon the track.

wss to discuss the imperative necessity
of dividing the union Of church and
State educational interests as exempli-
fed in Clahin University. After a full
and spirited discussion of the prlnci-
pies at issue, and formal series Of re-
Communications by duly appointed
committee, it was decided to appoint
two committees; one to properly pre-
sent the whole question before the
