The students Entertainment.

And it seemed quite exclusively the
students affair too, for the attend
ance upon the entertainment given
by Newton Beers under the auspices
OF the graduating class last Wednes-
day wasnot whatit should have been
outside of the school itself Mr.. Beers
in his representation of the several
characters in The Merchant of Ven
ice," exhibited marked ability. He
successfully brought before the audi
ence each individuality without leav-
ing the stage and without the very
material aid that would be afforded
by the use of costumes appropriate
to each.
The criticism that some felt like Of
fering would be founded on the fact
that there was too much OF it,, too
lengthy, and that there are many
more satisfactory and pleasing enter
tainments that might have the at
tention of the public in general. To a
Shakesperian enthusiast it was well
nigh perfect. Mr.. Beers rendered the
lines of this Shakesperian product in
a delightful manner, as facial con.
tortionist he is good, but for a full

more eniVening.

Within a short time we presented
the very important question relative
to the possible doing away with one
or both crossings, one mile east Of
here, at what is known as Tenny
bridge. The peculiar location aud
the serious danger that is a constant
menace to the traveller by highway,
were points then brought out. Since
that time Capt. kenfpId of the State
Board of Railroad Commissioners,
has visited that point with the Select
men of MOrristOwn, who looked the
ground over carefully. The abolish
ing of the further crossing would he
desirable, but would not amount to
much as it is not road that is
Travelled, except by a couple OF
families or 50.
The danger surrounding the pres
ent crossing on the main highway,
however, is evident to all, and if a
possible remedy is to be had the pub
lie will be greatly pleased to have it
applied. 1t is thought that by some
change in the road the highway may
be, without a great outlay, carried
under the track, abolshing the grade
crossing, Commissioners KeDfield
thinks it could, and should be &C
complished. Some day the street on
the Brooklyn side will pass under the
railroad, but it is not best to ask or
expect too much at a time.

Large Increase in Years Output
Over Previous Years.
According to the Louisiana Planter
in the month of March the last beets
of the campaign of 1867 were work
ed in the German factories, and it APP
pears now that the entire quantity
worked reached 13,720,930 tons, as
against II ,672, S16 tons in 1886, so
that the last crop turns out to be up
ward of 100000 tons of beets larger
than the preceding one. The increase
amounts to about Is per cent, but it
must be borne in mind that the in
crease of the acreage has been about
12.5 per cent, which, therefore, accounts
in a great measure, for the larger crop.
The quality is so far about 0.5 per
cent inferior to that of last year, when
there was 1919 per cent of sugar ex-
tracted from the beets. The total yield
can be, therefore, estimated at 1853
per cent, which, applied to the above
quantity of beets, results in a produc-
ton of about 1,74O,00 tons, and added
to this about $4,000 tons of sugar pro-
duced by eXhauSting molasses, we come
to a grand total of 1880 tons raw
value. OF this quantity 100000 tons
were on March 81 exported, 3,275,000
tons were consumed, and inclusive of
stocks carried over from 1886 about
916 900 tons formed the supply on hand.

CHICAGo,s FINANCES.

Municipal Ownership of Plants
Seems Distant
The Chicago Journal compares the
prosperity of the Windy City with
those of the city of Glasgow as fol-
lows: 1t is said that the city of Glas-
gov will levy no taxes after January
/. 1897; that it's entire income is to be
derived from public works now in its
own possession.
There is cheer for other muncipali-
ties in this announcement, but for Chi
cago at least there is no present pros
pect of a realization of the Glasgow
ideal. From the Controllers statement
it appears that the total receipts of
this city for 1895 were something over
$50. 900. 900. Of this amount over SILL
coo, 600 came from the tax levy. Ii the
city owned all the gas plants and all
the street railways the income from
them would not be one-half of this sum.
In 1895 the net earnings Of the three
great street railway systems amounted
to SO ,398.102 Nobody on the outside
knows just what the gas companies
earn, but from what is known Of their
capital stock and the declaration OF
dividends it is probable that their net
earnings are in the neighborhood of
81, 900 900.
Glasgow is less than half the size Of
Chicago and it's growth has been much
slower. It's affairs are run upon busi-
ness principles, and are not tainted by
spoils politics. Hence it was better
prepared to face complications and had
fewer complications to face.

Became Famous In Connection With
Irish Land Trouble.
LONDON, June 21.-Captain Boycott
is dead He was about 55 years of age,
and became famous through being the
first man subjected to the boycott in
Ireland. He was a land agent in 1881
in the Connemara section of County
Mayo, where he collected rents for a
number of landlords, notably the Earl
or Erne The captain made a speech,
in the course of which he urged the
people or Ireland to abstain from agra
rian crimes, and to adopt instead a
policy of sending harsh landlords,
agents and bailiffs Ito Coventry the
old term for boycotting.
Events so shaped themselves that
Captain Boycott was the first man the
Irish experimental upon in this con-
nection, and hence the now familiar
word of boycott"

GANG ASSAULTS A WOMAN.
Mrs. Josie Hill Dragged into a Shed
by TOughs.

Mrs. Josie Hill, a colored woman living
in the rear of 163 St. Mary street, was
roughly handled last night by a crowd Of
young men in the southwestern part of the
city. She was walking down South Mis-
souri, street on her way to call on a friend
by the name of Mrs. Smith. As she crossed
the first alley south of South street two
men sprang out and seized her. One of
them grabbed her by the throat and the
other struck her a blow on the head. They
dragged her back through the alley and
into a shed where she was a~ssaulted by the
two men and four or five others. She man
aged to break away from them finally and
went to the Vandalia yard office and tele-
phoned to the police station. This is the
story she told to Bike Cops" STREET. and
Lancaster when they arrived. She bore
evidence of the truth of her statement.
There was a large lump on her head where
she said the first ruffian struck her. The
woman says the men were all white. but it
was too dark for her 10 see any of them
well enough TO be able to identify them.
The police tried to locate the shed where
the men dragged the woman, but she was
too much excited and dazed when she ran
away from the men to take note of its
location.

SCHOOL-TEACHERS' LICENSES.
Three by State Board OF Edu-
arian's Appointments.

The State Board of Education was in ses-
sion yesterday afternoon and last even
ing, but did not complete it's work ana VIII
convene again this morning. The appoint
ments of Librarian Henry were not passed
upon, and will not be officially announced
until they are. 1t is stated upon good au-
thority that he reappoints Miss Fitzgerald,
and appoints Miss Jones. who served as as
sistant under Miss Ahern, in the place OF
Miss Boyd. Miss Jones was originally ap-
pointed through Democratic influence, but
politics was not considered in the appoint
ments of Mr.. Henry, it is declared.
The selection of a member of the board to
serve as one of the States representatives
in the selection of truant officers was de-
ferred until to-day, when the Governor will
be present. Every member of the board
seeks to escape this job, but the chances
are that it will fall to the lot of Superin-
tendent Geeting. The compulsory education
law passed by the last Legislature will be
nut into effect at the beginning of the next
school year, and under its provisions there
are about four" hundred truant officers to
be selected for the purpose of chasing the
little ones to school. These officers are paid
81 a day, and are to be selected by a board
composed of one member OF the State Board
of Education, the secretary of the State
Board Of Charities, the county superin-
GAA~
of the vicinity.
Yesterday afternoon the board went care
fully into an investigation of three high
schools applying for commissions giving
their diplomas recognition at the state ed
vocational institutions. Commissions were
granted to the high schools at Broad Ripple
and Boonville. The application of Dun
kirk was denied.
AT the evening session the board took up
the examination papers of applicants for
life and professional licenses. The follow
ing licenses were granted:

CITY HOTEL MEN
May Offer Some suggestions as to the
State Fair.

TIL City Hotel Association held a meet
ing last night at the Denison House. There
were present Thomas Taggart, of the
Grand; H. W.. Lawrence. of the Bates; j.
S. Hall, Of the English; I. j. Cullen, of the
Denison; and @. A. Baker, of the Enter
prise. The meeting was chiefly devoted to
the discussion of matters relative to the
details of hotel management. A committee
was appointed to revise the rules and regu-
lations which now govern the association.
1t was decided to give q banquet some time
during the summer to the hotel men OF the
state. The event may take place lmme-
diately before or after the hotel mems out
ing in June.
The association also discussed the ques-
ton of cooperating with the Commercial
Club and Board of Trade in their efforts so
advance. the city's interests. Later the
hotel men may offer some suggestions to
the State Board of Agriculture intended to
Increase the interest in the state fair. The
hotel men think the entertainment at the
annual agricultural exhibit should begin
earlier in the week. They say that under
the present arrangement there are two
days of the fair during the first part of the
week when there is little to attract people
to the city.

ILLINOIS HAS SAME LAW
ITS SUPREME COURT UPHELD INDIE
TERMINATE SENTENCE STATUTE.
The Decision Handed Down Wcdnes-
day as Applied to the Indiana
L~aw-Right OF Jury Trial.

Judges on the bench and criminal law
yers all over Indiana have been much in
terested in the determination of a case
pending before the Supreme Court of IIli-
nois, in which the validity of the Illinois
in-determinate sentence law was attacked.
The law passed by the last Indiana Legisla-
ture, which was recently declared uncon-
stitutional in st. Joseph county, is the
same as the Illinois law and brings up pre-
cisely the same questions as were involved
in the case of Charles e. George, a Chicago
attorney, convicted of embezzlement and
given an ndeterminate sentence.
The Illinois Supreme Court handed down
it's decision on Wednesday, sustaining the
law.
The opinion declaring the law constitu~
tional was handed dow by Justice Craig.
He bases his decision as follows; IF the
law giving the right of trial by jury as
heretofore enjoyed shall remain inviolate,
shall be construed to mean that the system
of trial by jury as it existed by statute at
the time the Constitution of 1870 was
adopted, was migrated in, and became a
part of the Constitution, as is contended,
many embarrassing results never contem-
plated would follow. When the Constitu-
ton of 1870 was adopted the statute pro-
vided that the jury in all cases shall be
judge Of the law; and, first, did that pro-
vision of the statute become a part OF the
Constitution, so that it is beyond the power
of the Legislature to change it?
"Supposing the Legislature should pass an
act adopting a new system of impaneling a
jury entirely different from the one in force
when the Constitution of 1870 was adopted,
would such an act be unconstitutional? In
deed, since the adoption OF the Constitution
numerous changes have been made In the
original law relating to jury trials, and
these changes cannot be considered uncon-
stitutional. 1t is manifest that the language
of the Constitution was never mtended 10
confer upon a jury q constitutional right TO
fix the term of imprisonment In the tr1al OF
a person indicted for felony"
AS to comforting of judicial poWerS upon
the warden or board OF commissioners or
the penitentiary Justice Craig held that the
warden and board of commissioners had
the right to establish rules and regulations
for the purpose of governing and dlsc1plln-
ing the inmates This power IS vested IN
them by the Legislature. The commission
ers do not discharge the criminals and a
release is not granted without the consent
of the court in which the CRIMINAL IS orig
inally convicted and the Governor of the
State. In this, therefore, the commissioners
and warden are not uSurplng or exercising
judicial powers
Whether the law in question, making, as
it does, a radical change in the trfal or
criminal cases and the management OF prls-
oners convicted, is a wise one, Justice
Craig held not a question for the courts
to decide, but one for the legislative depart
ment of the government. Justice Magruder
dissented.
