FOR THE DEAD SOLDIERS
ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE CELEBRA-
TION OF MEMORIAL DAY.
Meeting of the General Committee
Last Evenfng-Progress by
subcommittee.

The committee representing the various
Grand Army posts and Woman's Relief
Corps, which is arranging for the Memorial
day exercises, met in Grand Army head
quarters at the Statehouse last night. Re
ports of committees showed progress in all
lines. The programme this year will be
about the same as formerly with the ex-
ception that the Grafton will be delivered
at the cemetery instead of at Tomlinson
Hall. Governor Mount will deliver it.
Flowers will be strewn upon the graves
by the children chosen by members of vari-
GUS relief corps. 1t is requested that per-
sons who have flowers which they are will
ing to contribute send them to any school
house Saturday morning before 8 o'clock.
Eyergreens will be scattered among the
graves by the Sons of Veterans and flags
will be placed by the ladies of the relief
corps. The Indianapolis Light Artillery
will fire the salute of three guns for forma-
ton of parade at / o'clock and one gun for
the start at $780, 1t will also fire the ma
tional salute of forty-seven minute guns at
the cemetery while the procession is
marching into the grounds. Company H,
Indiana Legion, Captain Tarleton, will fire
three volleys over the graves at the con-
clusion of the ceremonies.
The question of the starting point of the
parade and the line of march has not been
determined owing to the failure of the per-
sons appointed for the purpose to secure
the consent of the custodian of the State
house for the use of the Capitol grounds
for the children. Mr.. Bohme called on Mr..
Vest and on the Governor, but was refused
the use of the ground. Another committee
composed of Messrs. Buchanan, Green,
Makepeace, Richardson, Smock and Boyn-
ton, was appointed to make another effort
to obtain the consent of these officers.
Much Indignation was expressed at the
refusal of the custodian to allow the school
children to gather on the Statehouse
grounds to view the parade. Mr.. Green
declared that it was an outrage and moved
that the committee go ahead and take
forcible possession of the. place. Chairman
Boynton, of the general committee, de-
clared that if Tom Taggart would back
me with the police l would take possession
i'll spite of the custodian.
Major Robbins suggested that one OF the
fundamental principles upon Whlch the
Grand Army was founded was the belief in
obedience to law He advised that it would
be setting a bad example for the committee
to take such a rash step. He believed in
oheying the orders of the custodian, who,
by law has exclusive control of the state
house and grounds. The discussion LED 10

CORPORAL PUNISHMENT
SCHOOL BOARD WILL ATTEMPT TO
ABOLISH 1T IN CITY SCHOOLS.
Resolution Was Voted Down Last
Night, but VIII Come Up
at Next Meeting.

At the next meeting of the Indianapolis
School Board the question of abolishing
corporal punishment in the city schools
will be called up. A resolution to this eff
feet was introduced last night at the meet
ing of the board by Commissioner Black
ledge. A motion to lay the resolution on
the table was lost and at the next meet
ing the question will be made the special
order of business
The board had some argument last night
over the report of the finance committee
RMS committee asked authority to adVer-
tiSe for a loan to be made July l, 1897, in
anticipation of the revenues for current ex-
penSes and to provide for the Indebtedness
on account of the purchase of grounds and
buildings. The committee requested per-
mission to negotiate for such amounts as
would be found necessary. Some members
or the board thought the committee should
KNOW just how much money was needed
Ihe chairman of the committee thought
the amount could be arrived at later and
the question will be brought up at a Spe-
cial meeting of the board.
The committee recommended that the
president and secretary of the board be in
trustee of the town of Haughville 1t was
reported the books and records of the
HaughVile schools had been gone over by
Assistant Secretary o. F. Shepard. The
sum of $3307 was paid over to the treas
urer of the city schools. There are out
standing warrants amounting to $4,922.8 81
22SS7.
The board directed that the finance COM
mittee and the attorney for the School
Board consult as to the boards liabilities
for the bonds of the schools of West In
dianapolis and Haughville. A communica-
ton was read from James S. Cruise, offer
ing a piece or ground on Cottage avenue
ana Leonard street as a desirable site for
a new South-sde school building. Three
thousand dollars was the price asked. Su-
perintendent Goss recommended that an
appropriation be made as follows: High

ABDUL HAMTD A BAD DEBTOR.
How the Sultan Made an A american
Firm Wait for It's Paw,

A certain lumber firm OF this city more
than two years ago shipped to the sultan OF
Turkey several thousand dollars worth Of
its most valuable goods. The order included
mahogany and ebony logs of unusual size,
and OF the finest Coloring and gene raj quality
that could be obtained. The payment, or
rather The promise TO pay, was in the shape
Of draft ON the sultan, the money to be
forthcoming upon the arrival of the logs at
Constantinople. Naturally the American
firm regarded the imperial treasury OF
Turkey as good for the price OF shipment
of lumbe
In due time the mahogany and the ebony,
reached the Golden Horn and the Metiiter-
ranean Steamship Company sciit III to the
shippers II gentle reminder that the settle
ment OF freight charges was in order. But
meanwhile nothing had been heard from the
sultan or his agents, and the New York
lumber dealers did not fancy being held re-
sponSible for charges upopgou whichwere
not vet paid for. Cable dispatches and let
tiers We're sent to the Porte, bat the '.sick
man OF Europe Was apparently too busy
attending to hts Armenian Subjects to be
able to look after such trirleS rs settling with
American creditors. No satisfactory re-
sponse OF any sort could be obtained.
Then the lumber firm made application to
Mavroyeni Bey, at that time the Turkish
minister at Washington. He promised to.
see that his sovereign paid the bill without
further delay, and the hopes Of the dealers
We're again raised. But not even Mayroyeui
Bey was able to open the sultan's purse
strings. The ArIneniah question still alb
sorbed his attention. Mavroycni Bey was
recalled without having accomplished this
bit Of work. The firm had for months
practically abandoned all idea Of ever get
ting the money. ..Ht
on the last day of October. very appropri-
ately on the occasion of the great sound
money parade in this city, things took
most unexpected and joyful turn. Inrlu-
enced afar off, it may be, by the prevailing
American Sentime mt in favor of pa wing ones
debts honestly, the sultan, too, deci.ied
day word was sent to the firm that the draft
had beenpaid. Since then the actual money
has been received.
The moral of this transaction would seem
to be that, if you have business dealings with
Abdul HamidII youmuSt be content wait
a while for your money, he being n slow
debtor but one who will come around itlast
If you give him plenty of time.
