THE HIGH-SCHOOL EXHIBIT.
Will BE Under Auspices of Citizens
Education Society.

The Citizens Education Society, by its
president, Thomas c. Day, and secretary. r.
o. McAlexander, has issued an appeal to
the public, urging a hearty support of the
art exhibit, which is to be given under it's
auspices, in the High School building. April
IS to 25 This society is voluntary organi-
cation OF citizens for the purpose of pro-
noting interest in and support of public
schools, and bringing about a desire for
better schoolroom decoration. President
Day states that the cooperation of artists,
art dealers and architects has been secured,
and that the Street-rairoad Company has
agreed to carry children TO the exhibit for
one fare, when accompanied by teachers.
1t is urged in the appeal that, as children
spend more of their waking hours in the
schoolrooms than they do at their own
homes. attention to better and more attrac-
tive furnishing of such rooms should be
aroused.
The following are the committees for the
exhibit:
Finance--Albert Baker chairman, Carl
Leiber. BENJAMIN C. Kelsey, treasurer OF the

He Was a Vigorous Anti-SIavery Adj
vOcate Before the War.

Christopher c. GLASS; who was for eight
years a justice of the peace Of this city,
died yesterday morning at the home of his
daughter, in West Indianapolis. Bright S
disease was the cause of death. Mr.. Glass
had lived in Indianapolis since 1870. He was
born in Rush county, Indiana, in 1922. He
attended Fairview College and read law in
the town of Rushville. He was married to
Ann Rollins, of Rush county, in 1858, and
went to Chattanooga, Tenn, to live. In the
South Mr.. Glass took a firm stand against
slavery, and as his ideas did not
accord with those of the people about
declined to do so, and remained for some
time. When Mr.. Glass returned North
again he settled at Pekin, ILL.,, where he
took charge of county paper, vigorously
denouncing slavery in the columns of his
newspaper
Mr. Glass enlisted in the service of his
country when the war broke out serving
under Colonel "Dick" Oglesby, in Company
F, Eighth Illinois, and with the Sixteenth
Indiana Regiment under Colonel Hackle-
man. He left the service on account of ill
health and returned home. He practiced

A LAW ON SUICIDES.
Police officer Suggests Punishment
for Those Who Recover.

The large number of suicides and attempt
ed suicides in this city recently has set
some people to thinking it would be well if
there were State law enacted making it
penal offense to end ones own life. Such
laws prevail in other States. When a man
is saved from suicide he is arrested and tried
for the offense. Sometimes rather severe
punishment is inflicted In some States at
tempting suicide is simply a misdemeanor,
punishable by short sentence in Jail or
workhouse, but in others the offender may
be sent to the penitentiary. A police officer
said yesterday this was a subject some one
ought to agitate. He thought if the ques-
ton were taken up and properly presented
to the Legislature the passage of a law
might be expected He said that in very
large majority of cases the suicide is not
thoroughly in earnest, or else loses courage
after, making the attempt, informs some
friend, a Dispensary doctor is called the
stomach pump is applied and his life saved.
If he knew beforehand that the next step
would be his arrest he might be deferred
from his rash act.

TRANSFER OF PRISONERS
THIRTY-YEAR AGE LIMIT TO BE OBJ
SERVED IN STATE INSTITUTIONS.
RefOrmatOry officials Return from
Michigan City PrisOn-Effect of
Supreme Court Decision.

Superintendent A. T.. Hert, accompanied
bers of the board of managers of the Indi-
ana Reformatory, at Jeffersonville, has
just returned home from Michigan City,
where a consultation was had with Warden
Harley, of the state prison, with reference
to the transfer Of all prisoners under thir-
ty years of age to the Reformatory, and all
over thirty TO the prison, that have been
sentenced since April, 1897. Owing to the
test cases that were made under the new
law, considerable confusion prevailed and
many prisoners were improperly sent to
each institution. The recent decision of the
atty of the indeterminate sentence law, has
cleared away the confusion and, after the
proposed transfer, which will be made with
in few days, it is expected that Judges OF
criminal courts over the State will make
sentences conform to the law.
The members of the party from the jeff
ersonvile Reformatory expressed them
selves as pleased with the condition of the
state prison since the improvements have
been completed, and said that it would take
rank with the best institutions of the kind
in the country.
During the stay of Superintendent Hert
and party the break in the intake pipe that
is to furnish water for the prison from
Lake Michigan was discovered. The contrac-

"MACADAMS" VS., BRICKS"
IrvingtOn in the Thrills of a Paving
Material Rumpus.

The Irvington Town Board again wrestled
with the proposed improvement of Wash
ington street last night. A large company
of citizens filled the Town Board Hall. 1t
was the final round up of the question pre-
paratory to the reception of bids on the
work The time set for the final disposal
of the much-mooted question is next Mon
day night. Unless something unforeseen
arises the question, which has been the
main topic of interest in the suburb since
last summer, will be disposed of for good
at that time.
Last night had been set as a time for
hearing final objections. Two petitions were
submitted to the board. one favoring
macadam roadway and the other declaring
for either brick or asphalt. Both sides
claimed the majority of resident property
owners and in some cases claimed the same
SignerS The petition faVoring brick or as
phalt, it was claimed represented 2.269 front
feet, as against 1856 feet opposed to the
more permanent improvement. This petit
ton represented property owners who re-
side between Wallace street and Central
avenue. Those citizens who opposed the
petition for brick asphalt were, for the
most part, from the territory between Cen
trail avenue and Line street.
Little was accomplished last night further
than to stir the citizens up on the question
and to afford entertainment for the disin-
terested auditors.

Sixth and Seventh Districts Will Vie
with Each Other.

Interest grows apace in the approaching
Republican district love feast, to be held in
Shelbyvile Wednesday of next week, March
so. This is to be the first of series of
seven events in various parts of the State,
at each of which two congressional districts
will be represented, save in one instance,
where but one will participate. Efforts are
being made in the Sixth district to outshine
the Seventh in the Shelbyville meeting, and
local Republicans appear to be equally de-
termined to make better showing. The
rivalry is most friendly, but it is believed
it will have the effect of drawing out a
large attendance from Marion county. The
district love feasts are being arranged by
the Republican state committee and the
State Lincoln League Naturally there is
strong desire on the part of both organi-
cations for the success of the Initial meet
ing. Present indications point to large and
enthusiastic gatherings in all the districts.
Secretary Srooner, of the state committee,
every day receives scores of letters show
ing that Republicans of Indiana were never
more thoroughly awake than now nor more
eager for the light and confident of victory.
Not discouraging word nor line has been
written to the secretary from any part of
the State. The chairman in one county
generally regarded hopelessly Democratic
is confident of Republican success next fall.
An interesting Cay is promised those who
attend the ShelDyVlile meeting. Most or the
state candidates have announced wish to
be present, and there is no doubt but that
they will all be there, including the various
aspirants for the Office of United States
senator. Some Of the most prominent poll
ticians will make speeches, although the
programme of speakers is not yet an
nounced. Speaking of The approaching dis
trict meetings yesterday Mr.. Spooner said
that Republicans cannot afford to miss
them. as there will be much valuable inter-
change of ideas. He seemed to think that
the Marion county Republicans ought to,
by all means, attend the Shelbyville meet
ing, at any rate, If they cannot arrange
to be at ali of them. So far arrangements
for transportation have not been perfected,
but low fare will doubtless be obtained

day afternoon. She left home with an UNI
brella and pocketbook in her hand. When
near the corner of Pennsylvania and South

Wallace were sent from the station and
placed the rag man under arrest. While
the police were searching the prisoner by
