SUBURBAN AFFAIRS.

Chief Massing of the West Indianapolis
police force, swore out warrants and ar
rested Patrick Bryan and Edward Brown
Yesterday They were two of the principals
in the saloon fight which occurred Mon
day night and during which Dennis Bryan
was badly injured. Both parties were re-
leased on bond, TO appear for trial as soon
as Bryan's injuries permit his attendance.
The injured man suffered greatly yesterday
from the cuts and bruises he had received.
From the evidence gathered by the police
it appears that Bryans injuries were the
result of fist blows and kicks, instead of
being caused by a blow with a beer glass.
Brown and Patrick Bryan began the fight
and Brown threw beer glasses until his op-
ponent made for a door, and just as his
brother stepped out of the door Dennis got
between them and was fioored by blow
from Crowns fist, which landed upon his
mouth and cut the lip. AS he lay upon the
floor Brown jumped upon him and kicked
him in the face.

Various rumors have been af1oat for some
time concerning the ownership of the new
twelve-story building known as the Steven
son. now being erected on Washington
street. The latest story is that no Chicago
capital is invested in the building at all,
and that 1T is owned by the Churchman
estate. w. e. Stevenson, who is the agent
for the owners OF the building emphatically
declared yeSterdy afternoon that the
Churchman estate is not interested in the
building in any respect. He did not deny,
however, that several indianapolis men OF

clared that the majority of the capital in
vested is that of Chicago financiers. Tlti-

MIR. D0nIey's Organ Recital.

One of the very choicest programmes for
an organ recital that has been given here
for a long time was that of the Wagner
night. which closed the series of four re-
citals given by w. Fl. Donley on the new
organ at the Memorial PRESBYTERIAN
Church. The introductory number was the
Vorspiel from "Parsifal,' the great me-
diaeval mystery play, which has never
been seen on any stage outside of Bay
reuth. Then there was the professional
March from die Meistersinger" the only
comedy or lighter work of Wagner. This
was followed by "Wadweben" from ..Sieg-
fried" the magic fire scene from Die Wal
kuere, Siegfried's "Trauermarscht from
''Gotterdammerung" and three parts from
the Flying Dutchman," the very beau
tiful and popular Spinning Song"
Sento's song and the 'Matrosen" song
The finale was the grand overture
to "Tannhauser." There is charm
in Wagner's music that grows on
one and the selections given by Mr. Dom
ley are among the best known. The Oft
fascination all their own. and rs they were
brought out first with one set of pipes and
then another 1t was like hearing some great
orchestra play. MIR. Donley seems at his
best in Wagner programme. and the
composer was well illustrated in what Mr.
Doney played last night. Vocal assist
ance was given by the choir of the church
which is also under Mr.. DouIey's direction
Another series of recttals will be given by
the same organist later In the season.
