self were in favor of building good bridges
in the county when the finances would per-
nit. He said If they contracted for a bridge
now it would have to be paid out of the
general fund, and the county could not af-
ford it, He could hold out no hope to the
South Side people, even for the next year,
but he assured the delegation that the first
bridge constructed would be on the South
SIDE. After hearing Mr.. GTeers views, the
Ray-street delegation concluded it would
be useless to discuss the question. After
thanking the commissioners for giving them
an audience, the delegations withdrew

THE INDIANAPOLIS BOWLING CLUB
STILL IN THE LEAD.
Capital City Team Gave 1t a Close
Fight i'm the Tournament
Last Night.
Standing of the Clubs.

Three interesting games were played in
the bowling tournament last night. The In
dianapolis Bowling Club remains undefeated
this season. 1t won its third game last
night from the Capital City Club at the Ger
man House. The game was one of the most
exciting of the season. The Capital City
team is a product of this year, but it is
MADE up of good material. The club has
played in hard luck this year, having lost
three games by scores which would or
dnarily win. Last night the Capital City
team started out in the lead and maintained
it until the last inning. 1t looked so much
like a victory for this club that the report
was circulated at the other alleys that it
had defeated the champions. cheer went
up from the crowd assembled at the In
dependent Turner's alleys when the word
was received. But it was all mistake, and
the champions remain undefeated. The
score at the German House was as fol-

HER MAJEsTY,s DRINKS.

Quantities Less than a Quart.
in Chicago Record.

w. e. Curtis, in Chicago Record.
Speaking of the gossip concerning Queen
the National Temperance League OF Great
Britain. said to me last summer:
People will say unlSind things. about those
in high places, and have heard great
many stories about the amount of beer,
porter and other liquors consumed by her
Majesty which l know absolutely to be
false. / have taken great pains to ascertain
the truth and have exhausted every possible
avenue of inquiry. The best information
comes to me from her chaplains, her medi-
cal attendants. and from persons at the
palace who come in contact daily with the
Queen and know positively what they are
talking about. L do not assert that her
Majesty is a teetOtaler, but that she Is alb
stemious and takes only such stimulants
as are prescribed by her physicians. She is
a very old woman; she has a great many
calls upon her strength, and is required to
endure fatigue constantly in the perform
ance of her official duties. At times her
system has been debilitated and she has
needed tonics which have often been pre-
scrbed by her physicians in the form of
malt liquors OF late years she has taken
good deal of malt. 1t is said TO agree with
her better thar other tOnics, but the stories
that she always has a pot of porter on the
table beside her and that her flushed and
ruddy complexion comes from over-indul-
gence is cruel and wicked Islander.
THE Queen has always lived a temper
ate life, else she could not endure what
she does to-day at her age. In her family
she has always taught temperance. and her
daughters are actively interested in tenn
perance work. In the selection of the deans
and other clergy In Windsor. Balmoral Os
born and other royal residences she makes
ii a rule to choose total abstainers. l ven
ture to say that not single man among
all the clergy who are the recipients of her
Majesty's patronage ever indulge in glass
of wine. Nor is this an accident. The first
question her Majesty always asks about a
bishop or curate or any clergyman who
seeks preferment at her hands concerns his
habits of living. She is very severe in her
condemnation of incorporate clergymen,
and ii she had her way she would drive
them out of the church. Several of those
connected with the royal household are
actively engaged in temperance work.
Furthermore her Majesty is equally
scrupulous about other attaches of the PAL

Notes of the STAGE.

Julia Marlowe wears rags in For Bonnie
Prince Charlie"-literally nothing but rags
yet they cost her more trouble of one sort
than the finest robes she has worn on the
stage. Miss Marlowe has a maid who is
more than the ideal in her particular line.
for she has also inventive genius. After the
dress for Miss Marlowe had been made
from new material as neatly as any gown
would be, a plain waist and skirt in one
piece, the important thing was to give it
the look OF having seen better days. The
maid Mary was intrusted with that task.
Make IL look as IL II had seen a hard
gay wear in the mountains, said Miss
hlarlowe. and bothered no more about the
dress.
One morning. few days after Mary be-
gan her experiments friend of Miss Mar
loves called upon her at her Chicago hotel
After they had discussed the weather and
other important matters, the visitor said:
4 don't exactly know how TO begin, but
must tell you that / saw your maid Mary
down near the lake this morning gathering
stones. ! cant understand What she wanted
them for. "
Neither could Mus Marlowe understand.
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1897-11-13

so when Mary came in she asked her what
the stone gathering business meant.
We'll you see, that gown your to wear
in Bonnie Prince Charlie has to be ragged
and torn, and | thought the best way was
to get some good sharp rocks and rub and
pound the stuff till ii looked threadbare.
Then to get some nice wrinkles in 1t l
dipped the gown in water and tied it in a
tight knot for half an hour. / guess / over
did the wrinkling and am going to iron
some of the creases out"
Mary's tatters looked like the real thing
and the fabric is so threadbare in places
that it has to be darned with coarse white
cotton after every performance.

This score SHOWS tnat the OaplIaI CITY
Club was defeated by seventeen points, but
the club claims that the true score should
have given the opponents seven less points.
They claim that Bowers fouled and that the
umpire called the foul, but that the ball
was allowed to end a wrangie. The Capital
City boys believe that this agreement had
a tendency to cause them to go to pieces
and to do less telling work than they might
have done otherwise.

STRONG DOUBLE BILL.
Miss Helene Mora Received an Ova-
ton Last Night at the COncIu-

Tonight the Flower Mission fair will close
with one of the best programmes of the
week, the object of the management being
to end the week with "blaze of glory"
A fine banjo and guitar concert is to be
given, to be followed by the bicycle grand
march, which was so much applauded
Wednesday night. 1t is hoped by the ladies
of the fair that this double bill will attract
the largest crowd of the season.
1t was banner night in point of attend
ance at the Flower Mission fair last night.
There were hundreds of people filling the
galleries and the seats on the main floor,
and many of the booths entertained spec
tators. The double attraction of the sing
ing Of Miss Helene Mora and the play,
Lord Dunraven," together with the fine
weather, served to call out hosts of friends
of the society. Miss Mora was given a cor
dial greeting. and received an ovation after
her songs. Her phenomenal voice. perfect
enunciation and power to thrill her hearers
completely won the audience, and the APP
plause was long continued. Finally she re-
turned and graciously thanked the audience
for their evidence of appreciation, and she
recited How Salvador Won" Her Won
derful control over her vocal powers was
again shown in speech, and even after she
was ready to leave the hall she was re-
called. A large bouquet of pink roses was
presented to Miss Nora
The play, Lord Dunraven," was of local
interest, inasmuch as it was written by an
Indianapolis young man, Mr.. Charles S. Mil
lard, and acted by number of well-known
young people. Mr.. Willard took the leading
character. Mr.. Larz Whitcomb was ex-
cellent as Mr.. Brown and was applauded
for his by-play in imitation of golf. Mr..
Vajen and Mr.. Harrington acted WELL as
they always do, and the young ladies, Miss
Wallick and Miss Armstrong, in the small
parts they had, were pretty and charming.
Mr.. Gordon Varney, in makeup and speech,
was good as the butler, and Mr. Bradshaw
and Mr.. Adams were the police officers, with
astonishing boards and poicemen's garb.
The matinee this afternoon will be espe-
cially for children. The great feature will
costumes and with decorated wheels. There
will be music and dancing, and attractions
of various kinds at the booths. About fifty
children are to be in the grand march.

Notes of the Fair.

There are yet many handsome and useful
articles for sale in the booths.
Mrs. o. B. Jameson gave a tea yesterday,
at o'clock, in the library booth. The
young ladies of the booth served it.
The committee in charge of the play last
evening was Miss Garrard, Miss Sarah Mil
lard and Mr.. N. Booth Harrington.
Luncheon will be served to-day in the east
corridor, by the ladies of the Second Pres
byterian Church and of Woodruff Place and
vicinity.
Some one has said that the Flower Mis-
sion fair is to indianapolis what the horse
show is to New York, except that the for
mer is for charity.
Mrs. May Wright Sewall entertained a
party last evening at supper at the inn.
Several hundred took supper between the
hours of and 10 o'clock.
Last night the fair was veritable beauty
show. There were ever so many pretty
girls in bright evening gowns. With the
booths for setting, they formed pictures
everywhere.
The ladies who go to market this morning
are invited to drop into the fair and buy
their flowers for Sunday They will be sold
at the market price. A fresh lot will be
opened this morning.

were laid out which were far ahead of
the demand for town lots, many of which
have not been utilized up to the present
time and some of which will not be need
ed for years to come.
Some of the widest scenes of excite
ment attended the sale of lots in towns
which have since grown into promi-
nence
Azusa Is a case in point, where $50 men
stood in line for forty-eig'ht hours wait
ing for the lots to be offered at given
price, and then each purchaser who
stood in line was limited to the purchase
of a given number of lots. This limit
was placed in the lots so as to prevent
one man from getting all of the pie.
Lordsburg lots were sold under high
state of excitement. A large hotel was
built, a paper was established and quite
town was developed. The hotel was
afterwards sold for school and the
Dunkards having established a school
in this hotel building have settled in and
around the town In large numbers. AS a
people they go slowly but surely about
the work of building up their settlement.
Monrovia is another instance of rapid
development. This town was once the
winter home of a large number of east
ern capitalists, but most Of them have
sold out their holdings. and Monrovia
settled down into good steady business
center for . fine fruit sections having
