COVINA
The Aud Bacon Concert q Pronounced
Success


Covina, March 1S.-The much-antici-
pated Aud Bacon concert took place on
Friday evening last at the M. e. Church,
Covina. The affair was joint benefit for
the Epworth League and Miss Preston OF
this valley, who is studying with Pro-
fessors Bacon and Hamilton OF Los An
geles. The house was well flied, the
Amphion Music Club in full dress occu-
plying seats in body, and were notice
able for many handsome toilets. Pro-
lessor Bacon did not appear, being de-
tanned by illness.
Miss Preston showed marked improve
ment in her violin solos since her last
public appearance here. Fred PIeston's
first appearance as a clarinet soloist was
enthusiastically welcomed, the young
man playing with remarkable skill and
taste for an amateur. He was hOnOred
with an imperative recall.
OF Miss Auld's singing there are diverse
opinions. many commencing as usual,
because of her reputation as a vocalist;
many mole, simply because certain others
do. She certainly has a phenomenal
voice, and uses it in certain ways most
skillfully showing both feeling and won
derful technique.
The next musical event of note will be
the open meeting Of the Ampheion Club,
at which will appear popular trio of
instrumentalists from Los Angeles.

TO TEST THE FEE LAW
III TREASURERs' CASE COMES UP
FROM woo COUNTY.
Ii Is Claimed that the Old T-reasurers'
Fee Schedule OF the Act Of 1870
Is still in Force.

The suit to test the right Of the county
treasurers TO retain fees in accordance with
the schedule contained in the act of 1873
has reached the Supreme Court. Yesterday
afternoon a transcript was filed with Clerk
Hess OF the proceedings had in Vigo county
Circuit Court last Saturday. The case was
begun by James Soules, auditor Of Nigo
county, and is against the treasurer, John
i. Walsh, and his bondsmen, eighteen in
number, The complaint sets out that Walsh
refuses to account for $3.50 which he has
collected, as treasurer of the county, and
the auditor seeks TO have the court compel
him to account for the amount. This is the
amount of the fees that would be due the
treasurer under the act of 1879, which the
treasurer claims is still in force.
AS no briefs have been filed, 1t is impos-
sible to determine just what the line of the
defense will be, but il appears to be the
same as outlined in the Journal last week.
The defense will claim that the passage of
an act repeating another that is made
necessary by a constitutional provision is
not constitutional unless another act is
passed to take it's place. The fee an1 sal
airy law of 1891 was declared unconstitution-
al so far as it related to county treasurers.
on account of an omission IN the schedule
Oh Sneipy county Out at me SdHic ,li-S .IS
provision repeating the fee schedule or 1873
was declared valid. 1t will be the conten-
ton of the defense that the repeal IF the
fee schedule necessarily fails with the fail
ure of the other part of the law IN regard
TO county treasurers.
In the lower court proceedings the de-
PENDANTS demurred to the complaint. and
the demurrer was overruled with judgment
for the amount demanded. The attorneys
for the treasurer are Lamb & Beasley, of
Terre Haute, and John r. Wilson, of this
city; for the plaintiff, Samuel NJ. huston,
prosecuting attorney for the Vigo Circuit
Court

I'm the East.

In answer to a correspondent, who was
seeking information. the United States In

the Citizens Street-railroad Company:
When the present management took hold
OF the company there were outstanding

These constitute a first lien. When the

consolidated mortgage bonds, S,0O,OO are
said to have been sold.
with the affairs OF the Citizens company is
that its franchise Is in litigation AS We
understand the case, soon after the pres
ent management assumed control the city
government advertised and offered for sale
the rights and franchise of the city. of
indianapolis, claiming that the franchise
of the Citizens company expired jan,
1894. The franchise was sold TO the City
Railway Company. the Citizens company
charter was perpetual. The United States
Circuit Court, in October, 1894. gave a de-
cision in favor OF the Citizens company,
part OF the court dissenting. The matter
has been carried TO the Supreme Court
OF the United States, the claim now be-
ing that the Citizens charter and fran
chise expire in 1901. The company will prob
ably hold the held until the latter date.
when it will either prove itself the owner
OF the perpetual charter or fail to establish
its right to the streets OF indianapolis.
We are informed that If the company fails
to establish it's claim to the franchise ii
will be sold out and the security holders
will fail TO receive 100 cents on the dol
lar. for the reason that the intrinsic value
OF the plant Is estimated at only about
50 1000. possibly less. If the suit term
mates successfully for the company the
market value of the securities may be ex-
pected to advance materially. The earn
ings of the company for 1894 were SS50,215
gross. and $sSS.2f net, against ssh, Ill
gross. and $251. 22S net for 1893. We are un-
able TO state what the company shows after
making necessary deductions for taxes. in
terest and other items, but we are informed
by local parties that it Is accommodating
no surplus TO speak or.

AN INSANE
Was the Removal of Brass Buttons to
the Village Physicians.

Theodore Martin, aged nineteen, was
sent TO the Central Hospital for the In
sane four months ago from Campbellsburg
Washington county. He is yet an inmate
of the asylum, but remains there greatly
against his wish. He declares that he is
not mad, and charges that he is being
Illegally detained. Yesterday, through at
torney Morgan, he filed a petition in the
Superior Court for his release on a writ
of habeas corpus. Judge Harvey, with
whom the petition was filed. will pass on
the case to-day. Attorney Morgan says
that Martin is apparently sane ana hopes
of the courts.
Martin related a singular story to his
f1,%DsS I'D He tie s eSa + of t Insanity Sls in fa oraer
to prevent him from marrying the young
woman of his choice. Tn young lady lives
at CampbellsburS. and Martin says ne mas
been paying her attentions for a long time.
His father objected to the match. and he
secured the consent of the girl to eiope.
While these preparations were being made
the father took steps TO have him incar-
cerated. Young Martin says further that
he was declared insane by a iunacy COM
mission which did not investigate his case.
He was employed by the Southern News
Company IN the l.. & n. trains. When
arrested at the instance OF his rather he
wore the uniform OF the company, and
Jail he was removing the brass buttons from
his coat. He did this frequently, he says.
when not on the road. always substituting
cloth buttons. The doctor watched him for
a few moments, and then asked what he
was doing.
Pm taking these buttons off," replied
Martin.
That's ALI that's necessary said the
physician, turning TO the other members
of the commission. He was at once pro-
nounced insane and sent TO the hospital.
DIR. Edenharter says that Martin was an
inmate of the hospital once before. He
was sent back last January, and during the
first week in May he grew so much better
that his father was notified that he could
be taken home on a furlough. The father
has not yet put in an appearance. Martin
admits. that he has been In the asylum
before, but says he was sent here because
of his drinking habits. He corresponds
with his Campbellsburg sweetheart. and
has her photograph. which he proudly ex-
hibited to his attorney.
