Stay on Terra Firma.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
/ notice in your account of the up in
the Air. Commercial Club committee meet
ing last night, in conjunction with the rep
resentatives of the city government, some
very fine-spun theory in regard to the ele-
walton of the railroad tracks within the
city limits. 1t would be well to consider,
we go along the material interests of
our city from the manufacturers stand
point. The city engineer seems to recognize
the fact that it would be necessary for
manufacturing establishments, within GER
tain limits near the center of the city, to
run their switches, should they be SO for
tunate as to have them, into the second
story of their establishments, and do their
shipping and receiving in that way. Now
this might be good theory. but from my
point of view it would not work out in
use coal for fuel unloading its cars in this
way, or suppose a factory only
story high. the elevated track might be
higher than the factory. Imagine the in
convenience of shipping or receiving ma
terial under such condition of affairs. 1t
seems TO me that if the time and money
necessary to carry out this theory and
make fine drawings, and on were spent
in giving invitations to manufacturing
adjustments to locate near or within our
borders. it would result much more to the
advantage and interests of our city than all
this talk about elevating tracks and caus-
ing uneasiness in manufacturers minds
about the large damage that would result
to their property. Our city, large and
prosperous as it seems to be, Is not large
enough yet to say to manufacturing estab-
lshments additional railroads that they
cannot come in. 1t may not be generally
known that our young and growing cities
in the gas belt are continually inviting our
manufacturing establishments TO locate
with them. where they can get all the
ground they want and all the fuel they
need, and money and bonuses besides, and
if this elevation of the tracks talk Is not
stopped will not only not add to
manufacturing intrests, but some of them
will be taken away from us.
/ notice that the estimate for elevating
the tracks is placed at S2,50o000. When fig
ured up, after the elevation has become
a fact. il would perhaps be nearer $500 600,
and count the damage to the manufacturing
interests as we'll as the elevation of all the
switches and we will have not less than
$5.000,000 more. The question might arise
as TO who would be liable for these DAM
ages. If one-fourth of this amount of
money were expended in running a man.
moth gas pipe line into the gas field, bring
in gas, and offer 1t to manufacturing es-
Establishments, who would come to us, IL
strikes being much better SCENE
for our material good and interests than
to talk of elevating the tracks and driving
the manufacturers that already have
away from US. We had better stay on terra
a while longer. MANUFACTURED

INDIGNANT AT HOLTZMAN.
FulfOrd Case Jurors Take Exceptions
to His Remarks.

In the Criminal Court. yesterday morning,
when the Fulford forgery case was called up
the attorneys for the defense filed af-
fidavit asking for change of venue from
the court The motion was granted. and
motion to quash the affidavit and in
formation was Immediately filed. The
ground upon which the motion was based
was that of duplicity. This motion was
overruled. and the defense filed a motion
to quash each count of the affidavit. which
was also overruled. Fulford was then ar
raigned upon the affidavit and pleaded not
guilty. The defense desired to take a con-
tinuance in the case, but Prosecutor Holtz-
man objected. The continuance was grant
ed, however, and the case will be called for
trial on Monday morning.
The statement of Prosecutor Hoffman
concerning the verdict in. the bribery case
has caused some comment among attor-
neys. 1t appears that the remark was due
to the fact that Ben Marshall, the pros
ecuting witness In the case, had reported
to Hoffman that man who was frequently
seen about the courthouse had been seen
talking TO one of the jurors. The facts
were reported to special Judge Harding,
but he refused to take any action without
more definite evidence. The jurors who
tried the case are indignant at the nsinua-
ton. They say their verdict was all that
could be rendered under the evidence and
the instructions of the court go

HYPNOTIC INFLUENCE.

A Strange Case From Wisconsin. in Which
Prof. Herbert Flint is Involved
Prof Herbert Flint, well known ia To-
peka as dispenser Of hypnotism, profess
scr Of mesmerism and dealer in mental
phenomena generally, is involved at Eau
Claire, Wis, in one Of the most sensa-
ti0nal and remarkable cases ever known
in that section, and one which is attract
ing wide notice in eastern papers. There
Is nothing questionable, however, ia AIr
Flint's connection with the case.
One night not long ago Miss Mabel
Briggs was found in a remote portion Of
the city Of Eau Claire BIZ her father and
an officer and was taken home. Her men

days. She was unable to give any ac-
count of herself As a last resort the
theory Of hypnotism was considered aud
Prof Flint was called upon to take her out
of her remarkable state. Prof. Flint put
Mabel into a mesmeric sleep 81 deep
that her respiration could hardly be de-
tected Her eyes closed. muscular CON
troll was lost The pulse was hardly per
ceptible. A knife was passed through
her arm without producing any sign of
sensation. She was questioned In sub
stance her story WAS that while she was
walking she met two men who criminally
assaulted her
When DR.. Flint released Mabel from
his control she burst into tears.
For the first time after the terrible
treatment to which she had been sub
jected she gave expression to feelings of
horror and self pity, but she seemed to
have relapsed to a great extent into the
same condition in which she was before
DR.. Flint's Intervention. 1t was
decided from her talk that she
was under the hypnotic control

ALYRE BIRDS TAIL.
The st. Ananias Club Receives An APpro-
pirate Git from Boston.

pirate Git from Boston.
It is quite appropriate that the latest
addition to the archives of the st.
Ananias club should be the tail of the
rare and almost extinct Tyre bird of
Australia. 1t is a beautiful affair framed
IN glass. Several months ago the club
entertained a wealthy Boston man, a
friend of A s. johnson. The gentleman
was able to tell some fish and other
stories that were so good that he was
given one Of the clubs licenses to repeat
them anywhere for one year The nov
city OF the license made q great hit with
the man from Boston and he carried 1t
in his pocket all the time. One night
not long ago at big party in Boston Col.
Johnson's friend found it apropos to
show his license from the St Ananias
club. The idea struck one of the young
lady guests 50 forcibly that she said, Il
have something at home the club ought
to have" aud she agreed to send it out
to Topeka and she kept her word The
tail of the Tyre bird is one OF the most
beautiful whims Of nature on account Of
its colOrs and beauty Of design. 1t is 30
called because it is nearly the shape Of
the old Grecian Tyre. It is neatly framed
between two French plate glasses Of the
dimensions of about two by three feet,
and occupies conspicuous place at the
