Miss Gertrude Hauk. an Indianapolis girl,
living at present in Chicago, where she has
been praised as a reader of much merit,
gave a dramatic recital al Plymouth Church
last night. She was assisted by Miss jean
nette Durno, pupil of Leschetizky, Of
Vienna. Miss Durnos press notices have
been highly complimentary and she bore
them out last night. Miss Hauk pleased the
audience. She read James De Miles The
Senator Entangled:' "A selection from Riley S
"Rhymes of Childhood:" Geneva" by
Coolidge Aux Italens, by Bulwer-
Lytton; My Ships" by Ella Wheel Will
cox. and AT the Photographer by Har-
riet Ford. Her representation of the soft.
bandishing accents of the italian countess
in The Senator Entangled'' was excellent.
Miss Durno played selections from the
works of her teacher. Leschetizky, Liszt.
Chopin and other composers. Her true touch
and intelligent conception gave beautiful re-
suits.

SECOND READING.
on the second reading of bills several
minor discussions arose. In calling up his
bill. No 1O3. Senator Gilbert said its pur-
pose was to prevent the secretion of tax
able property by compelling the recording
of all mortgages given either to residents
or nonresidents of the State.
Senator Gill called up Senator Shea's bill,
No. 126, relating to township libraries Sem
ator Brooks explained the provisions of the
bill, saying that it's only purpose was to
cut off the salary of township trustees, who
appropriated to themselves a certain
amount each year for caring for township
libraries which had fallen into dtsuse. {
was especially designed, he said to mt
towns and counties where up-to-date IL
braries had been established for public use
by private donations, and it was desired to
consolidate the two libraries.
Senator HOgate said that his bill, No. l9S,
provided that, in the matter of improving
streets in small towns, the expenditure ana
quality of pavement should be left to the
vote of the people and not TO the arbitrary
action of q council.
When Senator News bill No 121, was
called up considerable opposition was mani
tested against some of its provisions among
the Democratic members. 1t provided Tor
the keeping OF uniform systems of city
accounts and the appointment of state
examiner at a salary of 5000 year. Sem
alter Patten thought this amount too large,
and said there We're numberless bookkeep-
ers at large who would do the work for
much less. He suggested giving the ex-
aminer $780, but, when Senator Hogate
said he thought the competency of the man
must be of the highest order. and that he
raised his first figure to $l,SGO, but, in the

ARGUMENT TOMORROW.
Evidence Nearly Concluded in the
StOner-CregOr Contest.

The last writhes of the Cregorites before
the Senate elections committee yesterday
were weak affairs, and the fact was pain
fully evident that the number of Illegal
votes proved and counted for Stoner far
overbalanced anything which the attorneys
for Cregor have been able to show to offset
them. The Stoner side has proved that at
least siXty-three Republican votes were
bought in the three counties of Madison,
Hancock and Rush, while, from the best
records in the case, the Cregorites have only
shown, more or less remotely, that ten Dem
ocratic votes were bought by Republicans
and last night Cregor's attorneys admitted
that with the exception of one witness in
Rushvlle who is sick in bed, and whose
deposition will be read in court to-day, to
the effect that he sold his vote to the Re
publicans, they had reached the end of their
evidence. In view Of this evidence and the
fact that Cregor's whilom majority in the
three counties was only 50, it is felt that the
unseating of Cregor is a foregone conclu-
sion.
DR.. Cregor himself went on the stand
last evening, after three other witnesses
had been heard, and testified that he used
no money to secure his nomination. He paid
his assessment of SIS in Rush county. the
other counties in the district asking him for
nothing He knew of no money having been
used in his interests in any of his coun-
ties, and he commissioned no one to use any
for him.
McCelland Jackson, living near Fortville,
said Bob" Fair gave him some money on
election night. with the request that he
hand it to James Alvey, whom he sup
posed" had sold his vote to the Republicans,
although nothing was said by either man to
indicate such thing He admitted that he
did not know that the money had any con-
nection with the buying of Alvey's vote
and said that he did not know how Alvey
had voted. Samuel Sells. of FOrtvilie, said
he saw Jackson give the money to Alvey.
but didn't know what the money was paid
for nor how Alvey voted on election day
Thomas NJ. Green, clerk of Rush county,
produced package of disputed ballots from
Carthage, which, on examination, proved to
be mutated. One of them was Repub-
lican ballot and the other Democratic. 1t
was agreed that one offset the other, and
no Importance was attached to them by
either party. In another package was an
affidavit signed by one William Cook, who
voted in Carthage although he admitted
that he had been in Anderson for six months
before election and only returned home Oct
>. An affidavit from his father was In the
package and set forth the fact that his son
had always made his home with him and
considered that he had Il right to vote in
Carthage. The Stoner side will close its
case to-day, and argument will be heard
tomorrow.

SOME REMARkARLE rIGuREs.

The average cost of the gross mainten-
ance of the four insane asylums has fallen
from S227.5S per capita in 1891 to S166.9S in
1898: that of the thirteen charitable insti-
tutions has fallen from S229.7 70 per capita
during 1891 to STOPS in 1888; that of the
four correctional institutions from S134.75 to
$l21.5S during the same period. The average
per capita cost of gross maintenance in all
the state institutions during 1891 was S197.27,
against S152.95 in 1898. This is an average
decrease per capita of s44.32. On the rolls
of the thirteen benevolent and the four
correctional institutions there were 1924
names. A saving of $44.92 per capita year
means that the gross cost of maintenance
the last fiscal year was $36S ,919.6S less than
it would have been for the same number
of persons in 1891. That is a very large
amount of money; indeed, so large that the
figures might be doubted if they had not
them. They are correct If the State had
had 1924 persons in its charitable and penal
institutions during the year 1891 the gross
cost of their maintenance would have been
1868, 9l9.6S more than it was for that number
during the year which ended Oct. 81 1898.
There has been very little change in prices
during that period, so that the saving is
due to better and closer management One
of the influences which tended to general
reduction has been the quarterly publica-
ton by the Board of Charities of the cost
Of maintenance of each institution so that
comparisons were easy and could be made
odious. Trustees have seen to it that goods
were purchased on contracts made with the
lowest bidder. The most marked decrease
in the cost per capita has been made since
1894, when Republican legislature put the
larger part of the state institutions under
nonpartisan control. In short, the saving
of $44.S2 per capita for gross maintenance
is due to better methods and the publicity
of printed comparisons which were seen by
thousands of people.
1t is now proposed to extend better
methods and greater publicity to county
and township governments. When they
Shall be adopted there will be as large saw
ing in the administration of township and
county affairs as there has been in the
management of the state institutions. In
some respects Indiana is regarded by those
in other States as a model to be adopted

The speech of Hon. Henry L. Johnson
might almost be characterized as sound and
fury signifying nothing. That it was re-
sistless torrent of words goes without say
ing, as Mr.. Johnson has the reputation of
being the most rapid talker ever heard in
Congress. But in so far as it was an argu-
ment against annexation of the Philippines,
it did not touch any pending issue. If Mr.
Johnson had utilized his boundless loquacity
by giving reasons why the peace treaty
should not be ratified or even by designating
some way out of the Philippine complica-
tion he would have talked to some purpose.
Much of his talk was a passionate protest
proposing to enslave them? Even if it
should ultimately be decided to annex the
islands, Mr.. Johnson would hardly dare to
call that an act of enslaVement. We did
not enslave Texas when we annexed it, nor
California when we conquered it from Mex
leo Coming under the American flag and
government is not slavery. When Mr.. John
son said Il propose fearlessly, without re-
gard to it's effect on my personal fortunes,
to make plea for liberty" he played to the
galleries. His public career will end on the
4th of March next, and his personal for
tunes, so far as politics are concerned, are
nil. 1t was egotism for him to refer to the
subject. The whole speech showed that he
is not supporting the administration and
the Republicans did right in declining to
give him time for his TRADE against it.

This is the season of the year when farm
ers' Institutes are being held, and the Jour
nails exchanges from various parts of the
State contain reports of the proceedings.
BY comparison with former years the re-
ports show that the proceedings grow more
interesting from year to year, dealing with
practical subjects in a practical and pro-
gressive way. In nearly every case the re-
ports show an increased attendance, and in
some instances the largest ever known.
There can be no question as to the growing
usefulness Of the institutes.
