SCARED THE DOCTORS FAMILY.
A Bottle, and Not a Bullet. That Broke
DR.. l.. VI. ROwe's

A telephone call for police was received at
headquarters a few minutes before Z o'clock
last night. The night men were just gath
ering for roll call, and, as the call came in
from No. 13. North Meridian street, Patrol
men weible and Mathey. the regular patrol
men for that district, were sent to investi-
gate. Patrolman STREET., the bicycle man,
was also dispatched to the scene of the
trouble. for 1t was reported that some mis-
creant had fired three shots through the
window of DIR. l.. NJ. Rowe's dining room
while the family was at supper
thew arr We'd at the house. They found
some badly frightened people gathered in
the hs II in the front part of the house, as if
afraid to expose themselves to further shots
which might be fired from the outside.
."They have made a dastardly attempt on
our lives explained the doctor, when he
was assured that the visitors were officers
of the law. I'VE were sitting at the din
ing table when. without warning. three
shots were fired through the south window.
You can see for yourselves how the window
has been shattered"
An examination of the interior of the
house showed that a hole had been made in
one of the windows. Lying about on the
floor were the OF the window
glass and also those of a broken bottle. Ii
was afterward discovered that the bottle
had contained cocaine. On the ground I'M
der the window the police found two packs
of playing cards, one in a case and the
other scattered about. an empty bottle.
which had contained iodine, and a bar of
soap.
1t at once became apparent that no pistol
shot had been fired. and that the doctor and
his family had received a severe fright,
with little to cause it. Two or three cards.
which evidently belonged to the scattered
pack, were found in the yard adjoining to
the south. 1t is the theory advanced by the
police that some one In the adjoining house
threw the articles found from an upper
window. and that accidentally one of the
bottles crashed through the window of DIR.

LEFT OUT ONE COLLEGE.


There is a little row between the students
of the Indiana Law School and the faculty
over the coming celebration of Washing
toms birthday, which is TO be held in Tom
linson Hall. Some time ago the faculty of
the University of Indianapolis engaged the
hall for the use of the departments of the
University on that night. when there is to
be an address by General Harrison. Form
erly the medical colleges OF the city have
been uniting in a celebration of this kind.
but this arrangement left out all but the
Medical College of Indiana, which is a
department of the university. The law stu
dents thought the tudents of the Central
College of Physicians and Surgeons should
also participate, and they refused TO ac-
uuiesce in the action of the faculty. a
committee of six was appointed and when
the faculty overruled the committee. the
members resigned. a committee was ap-
pointed by the faculty. but IL also failed
TO agree. Now there is TO be a meeting of
the students, at which members of the fac
ulty will toe barred, 10 discuss the situation.

THE DELEGATES DEPART
MONETARY EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
TO BE APPOINTED SOON.
Chairman Patterson Says In About n
= Week or Ten Days-Mr. Walk
er's Parting Shot.

Most of the delegates attending the mon
etary conference have left the city. the
greater number leaving on the trains yes
terday morning. The general consensus
was that the convention would be fruitful
OF excellent results, and one of these re-
suits would be the passage of a law Great
ing a monetary commission. Representa-
tive Walker is the only one VINO seems to
feel that the cause of currency reform had
been injured, and a few of the delegates
have ceased to lave patience with him.
Chairman Patterson left for his home in
Philadelphia on a private car Wednesday
night, announcing to Mr.. Hanna before
leaving that he would not appoint the ex-
ecutive committee TO present the matter
TO Congress till a week or ten days, and
that he would notify each man selected TO
serve or that committee.
JOIN p. Irish, of California; Z. V.
Smailey, of Minnesota, and T.. r. Perkins,
of Cleveland. spoke of their great satisfac-
ton with the work of the convention, be-
fore leaving. Representative Walker paid
this parting shot to the convention:
Il do not think any good will come of this
convention. i think 1T has adopted "A plan
that will delay, If it does not defeat, the
purpose it had I'm view. The portents of
evil which hang upon and threaten the con-
illusions OF the convention may be enor-
nous. There is an immense body of people
in this country who Will take the same
thing from their representatives in Con-
gress, who will not take il from IA commits
sion composed of people whom, AS was
shown in the last canvass, they hold to be
antagonistic to their interests. The result
of the action of the convention will put into
the hands OF the persons in the country
who have prejudiced the masses of the
people against the men who formed this
convention n new weapon. Whatever the
scheme devised, 1t will invite opposition and
prejudice and make it all the more difficult
for Congress to pass it, They have con-
structed a Mccormick reaper TO harvest a
crop in a walled four-acre lot that will
tread down everything as it turns around
in it. In the convention, being a delegate
from my city, L felt it not only my right
but my duty to point out what i thought
was a mistake. l have no apologies to make
for having stated the truth, as j saw ii,
nor the slightest fault to find with others
who did the same, and who accompanied il
with considerable personal abuse"

is a new proposition. No law Cor this kind
OF investigation has been enacted elsewhere
that l know of; But there Is no progress
to be made in these things without ventur-
ing a new step at times; they ought to be
short = not rashly experimental - we'll
thought out and yet courageous.
WHERE 1T APPLIES.
THE occasions upon which the provisions
of this act will be invoked will be rare I'M
less the conflicts between employers and
their employees become numerous and fierce.
The difficulty must affect the employment
of fifty employees or more. The commits
sioners must first endeavor to mediate, then
to induce the parties to arbitrate, and then,
all other measure having failed. proceed to
investigate. The law is conceived in a spirit
of fairness. Its object is to promote peace
and good will. We must assume that the
men appointed to execute it will proceed in
that spirit. The employer is entitled TO
communicate with them confidentially.
That they will wish to wrong him is not TO
be supposed. hat they could wrong him,
Notwithstanding the protection of the court.
is improbable. Upon the whole the law
proposed does not appear to me to involve
any danger OF injustice to employers in that
way.
And if not, it seems to me to promise in
valuable aid to the solution of these ques-
lions. As i have said. the only law We
have now upon the broad subject of the
mutual rights and obligations of capital and
labor, employer and employe, is the general
Judgment of the community. and the only
court in which that law can be enforced is
the great court of public opinion. But that
is, after all, the greatest of all human
tribunals. vast in its jurisdiction. irresisti-
bic in its power. incorruptible in its integ-
rity and wise ultimately in its judgments.
Its authority may be defied. it's process de-
layed for a time, but its writ of execution
comes at last. 1t is upon the mandate Of
this great court that all laws for the re-
nnro - 0Bncao in ofaf nra AnoofA To I.
TO this source alone that We must look for
that advance in knowledge. virtue and oour-
age which shall lead us at last TO a just
solution of the labor question. 1t is the
scheme of this bill TO help us into the path
OF that progress at once, to begin now TO
take the judgment of public opinion upon
the merits of strikes which cannot be other
wise settled by putting the facts as ascer-
tanned by judicial investigation into the pos
session of the people without delay. 1t is.
as it appears to me, a step in the direction
I'm which We shall have to go ultimately,
and which we can take at once without
hazard and with promise of some imme-
diately useful results"

When we We're children, we were

to destroy books. OF course books are
not as expensive or as hard to get now
as they We're a quarter Of a century ago,

to waste or throw away.
Children should be taught how best
to take care of books and ought never
TO be permitted to throw or bang them
about or tear them in pieces. They
should be encouraged to accumulate
volumes, and to do this must have a
place in which to keep them Good,
