rotary fan run by the motion of the car,

with an exhaust fan placed in the end

Great ice Avalanche.


A mass Of ice comprising 100000
cubic feet broke away on the 18th of
September, 1896, from the lower part
of the Altels Glacier on the Gemmi
Pass, in Switzerland. With the veloc-
ity acquired in it's descent this river of
ice rushed across the pasturage and'up
the western slope Of the valley to
height Of 1900 feet along the rocky
wall Of the Weissfugrat. Not being
able to completely surmount this
barrier, the main mass came surging
back-like a vast seawave recoiling
from the cliffs-with such force that
some of it returned to a height of 100
feet up the eastern side. Isolated blocks
Of ice were hurled clear over the ridge
into the adjoining valley. This avail
anche was preceded by a terrific blast
of wind. which swept away chalets,
trees, men and cattle, as though they
had been feathers. These sudden avail
anches Of ice or snow form one of the
special dangers of Alpine climbing.

BRIEF In 3-CENT-FARE CASE.
City Attorney at Last Files One in
Federal Court.

City Attorney Kern has filed brief in
the 3-cent-fare case in the United States
Court of Appeals, at Chicago. He main
tains that the decree from which the city
appealed was erroneous, and that after the
Indiana Supreme Court held the statute to
be valid, the decision should have been
acquiesced in and the injunction prevent
ing the city officials from enforcing the law
ought to have been dissolved.
He holds that it is no longer an open
question as to whether the State has power
to limit the amount of charges by railroad
companies The act under which the Citi-
Eens Street-railroad Company was origi-
naly incorporated is in the form usually
followed by most States. Every man who
bought stock or invested in bonds of the
company did SO subject to the power the
Legislature had reserved to amend or re-
peal the act. Attention is called to the
fact that the question of the reasonable
ness of the law was not raised, so that that
question is not under debate. A number
Of authorities are cited to show that the
power reserved in Section IL OF the original
incorporation act was not IN contraVention
of the State Constitution. 1t Is not the
slightest consequence, he maintains. Wheth-
er the statute is general or local, as the
Legislature must determine that question
for itself, beside which the law itself pro-
vided that it might be amended by the Leg
islature BY amending the law, the Leg
islature simply expressed it's judgment that
a fare which would be reasonable in a
small town where 800 or 1000 people a day
were transported, would be exorbitant in a
city more than fifty times as large, where
the street cars carried fifty times as many
passengers.
Mr.. Kern maintains that If the legislation
complained of is not in conflict with the
State Constitution. the contract is not i'm
paired, so that the whole question turns
upon the corstitutionalty of the act as
measured by the Indiana Constitution Par
early times in the Supreme Court of the
United States the rule was announced that
the court would depend on constructions
of constitutions or statutes of States given
by the courts of the States, when that con-
struction was ascertainable. Reference is
made to the fact that in this case no one
is denying the right of the Citizens Street
railroad Company to occupy the streets A
copy of the decision of the Supreme Court
of Indiana on the 3-cent-fare law is filed
with the brief

A BurIesoue Company,s DODGE.

The burlesque company playing at the
Empire caused Postmaster Sahm a heap of
trouble yesterday by sending out number
of postal cards addressed to various citizens
of more or less prominence, signed Ma
mie," "Maudie" Violet" and various other
names affected by vaudeville statues. 1t
began, MY darling boy" and after duly
advertising the show continued thus: mot
having seen you in year, l would dearly
love to have you core to see me at the
show. Try and get front seat and meet
at the stage door. With love and kisses
yours lovingly. Blanche" Half the men
that got the cards could not see any humor
in ii at ALL and many of them turned the
missives over to the postmaster and wanted
to know if there was no way of furnishing
the authors. Few of them noticed that
the cards had been printed in imitation Of
typewriting, and the amount of indignation
displayed in the presence of such of the Of
flee force as had looked over the mail was
terrific.

A NAVAL APPOINTMENT
GEORGE BROWN, JR., MADE ASSIST
ANT PAYMAsTER BY PRESIDENT.
Recognition of the AdmiraIs Long
and Honorable Services-Inter-
nal-Revenue Places.

George Brown, the elder son of Admiral
Brown, was notified yesterday that he had
been appointed by the President an assist
ant paymaster in the navy. The position
pays at the start 81, 200 per year. Appoint
ments in the navy are not made on political
grounds, nor was this one, but it happens
that the young man is loyal Republican.
The appointment is generally applauded
here, where it is regarded as a fitting recog
milton of the admirals long and honorable
service. There were 116 applicants for the
position, and warm contest developed.
Mr.. Brown was strongly recommended by
Senator Fairbanks, Representative Over
street and a number of prominent Repub-
licans of the city.
Mr.. Brown is a young man Of twenty
three, native of the city, and was edu-
Gated in the city schools, at De PAW and
Annapolis He retired from the Naval
Academy on account of trouble with his
eyes. He has large circle of friends
among whom his uniform courtesy and
modest bearing have made him very pop
ular. Unlike the majority of sons of noted
men, he is possessed of strong character,
unmpeachable habits and much ability.
This is the first naval appointment Indi-
ana has had for twenty years.

In ELLISON'S PLACE.
w. II. EichhOrn Appointed to the In
diana RefOrmatOry Board.

Senator Thomas c. Ellison, of Fort
Wayne, one of the Democratic members of
the Board of Managers of the Indiana Re-
formatory, yesterday resigned from the
board. Senator Ellison was very active in
originating and pushing the prison reform
measures that passed the last Legislature,
and when the Governor asked him TO accept
the place on the Reformatory board he con-
scented. with the understanding that as soon
as the new institution was Well under way
and the improvements at the Reformatory
completed he should be permitted to resign.
The Governor expressed great regret that
Senator Ellisons professional duties were
such that he could not longer serve.
w. ii. Eichhorn, of Bluffton, was ap-
pointed to succeed Senator Ellison, and ac-
cepted the appointment. Mr. Eichhorn was
the leader of the Democratic side of the
House during the last session of the Legis-
lature, and made a record as an intelligent
and level-headed man OH the floor. He was
practically unknown when the session be-
gan, bur soon forged TO the front and at
the end OF the first month his leadership
was questionable.

HER LOVER INDIFFERENT.
Mrs. Florence Murphy Took Morphine
and Died.

Mrs. Florence Murphy died yesterday
morning at o'clock at 1873 North Alabama
street. She had taken morphine the night
before with suicidal intent. 1t seems that
Mrs. Murphy had a lover who went by the
name of AL Johnson and he grew indiffer-
ent toward her. He sent her to Chicago,
but she returned here and tried to get him
to visit her.
Last night at o'clock she sent him a
note, and he called a half hour later. About
9 o'clock he discovered that she was ILL.,
and sent for a physician. The drug, how
ever, was in her system by that time, and
no work or anitdote could save her.
