Who Appeal In q Certain Way to Certain
People.
To him who in the love of the CAPT
toll holds communion with it's daily Wis
itors they speak various language.
Which, being interpreted, means that
if one frequent the capitol and listen to
what one may hear there he will hear
some right funny things.
Not a great while ago there was a
small party Of persons from some one of
the outlying Maryland or Virginia dis
tricts, presumably the latter, as the mud
on their shoes was redder than Mary
land mud, who were seeing the sights
Of the magnificent building under the
direction Of one of those useful adjuncts
to the cause of education, a capitol
guide. 4 80
The party had got as far as the 70
tunda and were gazing on the paintings,
works Of art, and SO forth, in that cir
cular collection Of movable and immov-
able creations, when handsome man
came out Of the entrance leading from
the house and passed in review.
'That," said the guide, designating
the gentleman passing, lis the hand
soonest member of congress-.
i, lis that so?' responded the oldest
woman in the party, one Of that sharp
faced, sharp tongued kind of elderly
women one always wants to hear talk
and still is always in fear lest he hear
something that would cut hole in him.
Then, without waiting to hear what
further the guide might have to say on
the subject, she moved around where
she could get view of the beautiful
legislator as long as he was in sight,
and fairly Toasted her eyes on him in
fascinated silence.
Some minutes later another :object
Of interest passed the party.
There goes the smartest man in con-
gress," said the guide.
''Is that sop responded the elderly
woman in exactly the same tone as be-
fore, and she at once manifested an ex-
actly similar interest in this one and
watched him until he had passed out of
sight.
For as long as five minutes thereaft-
q suo was Sl4euG duu Wdlkeu amnesty
behind the others, looking at those Won
derful pictures on the walls, but not
seeing them.
whats the matter with mother?'
exclaimed tall, gangling girl, turning
to see what had become of the good
lady.
9TH amt nothin the matter with
me-, she answered as spry as anything.
II was jest a-thinkin I'd like to be
purity, and I'd like to be smart, but I'd
ruther be like what am than be con-

keer who knows it!''
And she evidently didn't, for every
body within 30 feet Of her could hear
what she aid.-Washington Star.

Classicism and Romanticism In Music.

Classical composers are those of the
first rank who have developed music to
the highest pitch Of perfection on its
formal side, and, in obedience to gener-
ally accepted laws, preferring aesthetic
beauty, pure and simple, over emotional
content, refusing to sacrifice form to
characteristic expression. Romantic
composers are those who have sought
their ideals in other regions and striven
to give expression to them, irrespective
of the restrictions and limitations of
form and the conventions of law-com
posers with whom, in brief, content out
weighs manner. 60 How to Listen to

1t is popularity of Russian railways
that their stations are generally two
miles or more distant from the towns
and villages they serve. This is said to
be on account of the danger of fire, the
houses in small places generally being
matched with straw.

THE NEW HOTEL ENGLISH.
Plans for the Addition Contemplate
Fine Furnishings.

The plans for the addition to the Hotel
English have been determined upon, and
when finished the complete structure Will
represent an investment of about 5000 000.
The style of the present building will be
carried out in the exterior Of the structure,
which will be extended to Market street
and the first alley west of Monument place.
The interior will be of the most improved
modern construction, and the same lavish
expenditure that has recently made the
present office and dining room the hand
soonest interiors in the city will be carried
out in the new structure. The office of the
hotel will be changed TO near the Market
street corner, and Il magnificent new dining
room will be constructed fronting on Mar
ket street. The plan comprehends the re-
modelling of the theater, and the present
ground floor, will be, with comparatively
little change, remodeled into an entrance
md foyer for the theater, thus giving l.
one of the handsomeSt entrances in the
West
At the Meridian-street corner restau-
rant and cafe will be put in, which in eX
terror beauty will rank with the Hoffman
House restaurant in New York and the
Auditorium Annex in Chicago. In the new
portion of the hotel there will be a hundred
rooms with bath, and the furnishing will
be costly. The question of who shall be the
lessee of the new hotel has not been deter
mined. The work of tearing down the his
toric structure known as Circle Hall"
which was formerly Henry Ward Beecher's
church. in order to make room for the hotel
extension, was begun yesterday.

UTTERLY WITHOUT A FRIEND.
No Plea for Henry Jones, Who Is to
BE Hanged To-day.

If ever a perfectly friendless mortal lived
upon earth Henry Jones, the man who is
to hang at the State Prison at Michigan
City to-day, seems to be the one. 1t would
have been something of a relief at the
Governors office if somebody had called
to put in a plea for the poor devil, not that
it would have accomplished a reprieve, but
simply that it would have shown at least
one person in the world interested in him.
But not plea has been made. not a let
ter has come. not even a postal card has
arrived asking clemency for him and in
this respect it is probably the most unusual
execution that has occurred in years. The
only friend on earth Jones has is the
warden of the prison, who has some
sympathy for him simply because he is so
friendless.
Notwithstanding the utter lack of interest
in his case the Governor carefully inVesti-
gated the matter of his own accord and
became convinced that such a thing as re-
form was impossible for this man. 1t was
upon the pettiest kind OF provocation that
he deliberately killed a felloW-prisoner and
his conduct in the prison has been more
that of a ferocious animal than man.
lie seems to be utterly lacking in any
sense of right and wrong and has scarcely
the intelligence of a young child.

A Hard Test for a bicycle.

One day last week quite an argument oc-
CURED in C. G. Fishers bicycle store re-
garding the damage that would result from
the Northumberland of a bicycle. Ihe
argument wound up by Carl Fisher apply
ing to the Monument Commissioners Tor
permission to drop a Grande Bicycle from
the top of the monument. This, however,
was refused. The next highest place avail
able in the city was the new Stevenson
building, on Washington street. This build
high, and promptly at O'Clock last night
fully three hundred people witnessed the
novel sight of seeing a brand-new Grands
Bicycle held from the top of the roof and
allowed to come sailing through space. me
machine struck Western Union wire as II
fell, which turned it a dozen somersaults,
and it landed in the alley on a pile or
bricks, which were to be used in the build
ing. Imagine the surprise of everybody on
rushing to the machine to find that the
only damage done was a broken rim and
the rear frame slightly pulled over.
Had the machine struck full on the tires,
as originally intended, Mr.. Fisher believes
that there would have been no damage
done The tires We're pumped with n.y.
draulic pressure and contained siXty-hve
pounds of air each, which would have PROB
ably saved the machine. The strain was so
severe that every spoke was looSened, but
aside from this and the broken rim and a
slightly bent frame no damage was done.
There was not a broken spoke in the wheel.
The machine is on exhibition in front OF Z.

A DISTINGUISHED PARTY.
Universal Postal Congress May Spend
Few Hours in indianapolis.

Indianapolis will have a chance to en-
terrain the Universal Postal Congress. The
delegates to the congress, to the number of
about 100, will be taken on an excursion
through the central West in about three
weeks, under the auspices of the Postoffice
Department. The excursion will go from
Washington to Pittsburg; thence to ST.
Louis via Cincinnati and Indianapolis;
thence to Chicago and thence east to New
York via Detroit, Cleveland, Niagara Falls,
Rochester and Albany, and back to Wash
ington, the trip lasting a week.
Philosophical citizens of Cincinnati are
already moving to secure the honor of q
visit from the distinguished body of postal
dignitaries from all over the world, but
Indianapolis has an advantage over that
city by reason of the fact that it is on the
direct line from Pittsburg to st. Louis. If
arrangements should be made to stop over
at Indianapolis only three or four
hours can be spared = just time enough
for a drive around the city, a luncheon and
a brief reception. The company will include
three or four personageS of royal blood
a half dozen postmasters general and the
greatest authorities on postal affairs on
earth. 1t will be a thoroughly high-grade
assemblage of gentlemen, such as Indianap-
oils will be doing herself honor to BETTING
ly receive. The excursion will probably be
under the direction of First Assistant Post
master General Heath.

FRIENDLY JAB WITH A KNIFE.
Charles Jones Resented Birthday
"POunding."

Yesterday was the anniversary of Charles
Jones's birthday. He was thirty-six and is
a porter employed in saloon on Malott
avenue He was sitting in the saloon rest
ing after a hard days work, and con-
graduating himself that none of the boys
had attempted any of the foolish FRANKS
which even grown-up boys sometimes play
upon a fellow when he has a birthday. He
had his pocketknife in his hand. His old
friend and crony, F. w. Coley, came in
about this time, and at once determined
that it was meet and proper that Jones
should submit to the reception OF thlrty-SlX
blows, with the possibility of an additional
lone to grow on, and perhaps 'one TO
marry on" and any others in the way OF
trimmings that he would stand. There was
a struggle, and when 1t ended Jones mad
not submitted to the playfulneSs of Coley,
but had stuck his knife into Coleys hip
1t was all in fun. The men were friends,
and are not men who would quarrel over
a little thing like thirty-siX or possibly
forty blows. They would not let a little
of friendship made firm by many an
oath over a friendly glass of beer. Not
themi But somehow the police running
that way heard of the affair, and decided
to arrest the men and give them chance
to show the world this pure type or
Damon-and-P ythias friendship by appear
ing in Police Court and recount1ng before
the public the details of the encounter, in
GLIDING the friendship jab which shed the
friendship blood of Coley.
That it was all in fun is proved by the
mems own statement They ADMIT IL Aney
admittedait while locked together in the
same ceIFat the police station last night
They were on the best of terms, and each a3a
scorned to leave the place without the
other, 1t is true that no bondsman for
either arrived, but when some one sug-
gested that Jones's employer might take
him out Jones remarked that he knew ne
wouldn't do anything of the kind.
I'VE don't expect to get sprung out OF
here at ALL" said Jones, land we takes our
medicine together. It's wrong, though, to
hook a, Teller for something like this. Why,
there's Coley, and he'll! tell you himself
that il WAS only in fun.

EPIDEMIC OF MEASLES
ABOUT 1900 CASES REPORTED IN
THE LAST THREE MONTHS.
Attendance in Public schools Falling
Off-onIy Five Deaths Reported
-Of Il Light Type.

Reports at the office of the School Board
show that the attendance in the public
schools is less than usual This is due to
the fact that there is an epidemic OF
measles. The disease made it's first APP
pearance about three months ago in school
No. SO, just north of Woodruff Place, and
eight cases were reported to the Board of
Health in one day Within three
months there have been 1900 cases
reported. The variety is the light
est kind and is called the red measles. Some
children who are afflicted with it have
little fever and feel miserable for day and
it is all over; no physician is called and no
medicine is given. Other cases are of longer
duration. Out of the entire 1900 cases there
have only been five deaths and these are
supposed to have been from exposure or
carelessness From the beginning, in the
northeast part of the city, the disease has
spread over the entire north part.
Yesterday there was a report that in one
class usually numbering forty at school No.
81 all but eight are sick. On Tuesday the
Board of Health placarded eleven houses
represented in this one school building.
Yellow signs are thick over the north end
of town. There has been but little of the
epidemic down town and schools Nos. and
II had not reported any cases up to last
night. the disease seems to appear regu-
larly every few years, and this season it is
more prevalent, but less dangerous, than
formerly. 1t seems to be in the atmosphere,
as schools widely apart are afflicted in sue
cession. It's origin has not been located to
any cause and preventives are about use
less except isolation for several days. In
one family near school No. 81 the children
have had the measles one after the other
and the, sign has been on the house for
weeks. Now that all are over it, the mother
declares that she will leave the sign on
until fumigating and the entire spring
house cleaning is done, for as long as that
stays up tramps, agents and various calls
that keep one constantly answering the
door bell have about ceased and she has
had peace in nursing the children and doing
many household duties free from Interrupt

WIRES SLAYER INDICTED.
Ferriter VIII Probably BE Tried
Within Next Fifteen Days.

The grand jury yesterday returned an in
dictment against John Ferriter, the slayer
of Patrolman Charles Ware The accused
will be tried on the charge of murder in
the first degree. Prosecuting Attorney
Wiltsie intends TO have Ferriter tried as
soon as possible. He said yesterday he
thought the case would be called within
the next fifteen days. John l.. Griffiths, of
Griffiths & POTTS. says it has not yet been
decided that they will undertake Ferriter s
defense. Ferrter seems very anxious to
have them represent him and 1t is probable
the attorneys viii take up his case.
Among the indictments returned by the
grand jury yesterday were the following

White, grand larceny; Charles Thompson
and William Browning, assault and bat cry
with intent TO kill; Richard Brogan, grand

RESULT OF TOWN ELECTIONS.
Chairman McCuIIoch, of Republican
State Committee, Satisfied.

George f. McCulloch, chairman of the
Republican state committee, came over
from Muncie yesterday on private business.
He expressed himself as more than salts
fed with the results of the town elections
this week. Both the Republicans and Dem
ocrats had expected a strong reaction to
follow the election of last year, as the party
in power almost invariably suffers a heavy
falling off in its vote after national sue
cess. Mr.. McCulloch declares, however
that IL anything can be predicated from the
results of the town elections il is that the
Republicans of Indiana have lost none of
their strength or enthusiasm and are in as
good, if not better shape than when they
rolled up such heavy majority for Nc
kinley last November.

Tt is doubtful if any modern commodity.
