which called Tor a $4,000 yearly payment.
ar. r'linn told the company that it would
cost $4,000 TO collect the garbage in this

ton met him at Pittsburg that he had never
been in this city and knew nothing of the
conditions in indianapolis concerned The

Heading OFF a Remembrance.

There is commotion among the residents
and property owners of Capitol avenue
north concerning the Improvement of the
street. Mr.. Morris Ross, who owns lot
on the corner of Walnut street and Capitol
avenue, wants forty-foot street, which
will permit of wide grass plot. Mr.. John
Osterman, who owns property. on the street
and who is a member Of the Board of
Works, is opposed to this idea. Mr.. Ross
has been calling property owners and
asking for signatures TO the remonstrance
against a street wider than forty feet and
Mr.. Oste1 man is doing hot, job of trail
ing the editor from house to house and in
ducing property owners. when possible, to
withdraw their names. He wants the street
as wide as it is now. 1t is an interesting

Ordnance Signed.

Mayor Denny yesterday signed the or
dinance annexing Mapleton a part of the
city. He said in reference to the conten-
ton that the ordinance was not regularly
passed that it came TO him in regular form,
and that he had no right to go behind the
Council records. The question arose as to
the right of a councilman to change his
vote on a call for verification of vote.
Mr. Shaffer did so when the verification was
called for, and the chair ruled the change
out of order, though the chairman had
voted against the ordinance, and the rul-
ing secured it's passage.

WORTHY OF SUPPORT.

VIRGINIA SEMINARY, the institution
founded and controlled by the Afro
American Baptists of this state is sore
ly in need of money.
Fifteen hundred dollars must be
raised at once to pay pressing notes
and tc, meet the interest on the bond
ed Indebtedness. Will the Baptists
heed this appeal Will they save the
institution ? Will they have enough
denominational pride to rally in this
trying hour ? We believe they will.
Brethren, raise all that you can at
once and forward it to Prof. G. w.

themselves in this movement. An un-
finished building stares us in the face
at Lynchburg.

pie worthy of imitation. They have
erected and completed stone struc-
ture in that vicinity.

building. Let us uphold the able pres
ident, and by all means let our faciI-
tiles be placed there for the accommo
dation of the hundreds of students who
in October will throng the door of the
institution. Let us aid Virginia Sem
