FOR HlGH-SCHOOL WORK.
A Resolution Is Adopted Providing
for Summer Terms.

The meeting of the Indiana Town and
City School superintendent Association
came to an end yesterday at noon. The
members again discussed the high-schocl
course of study and much attention was
given to the fact that certain high schools
were introducing a course of study that
would be more consistent with that pre-
scribed by a college. This practice was con-
demned by quite number OF the speakers,
who insisted that such a course was calcu-
lated to cram the pupil. to his detriment.
Others said that II was ambition on the part
OF the high schools which suggested such
an advanced course, and that some Of the
teachers were anxious to excite the admit
ration of their contemporaries. Then there
were those who held that the high schools
were really the colleges for the masses and
that they should not be considered simply
as the preparatory schools for colleges.
After the close OF the discussion, the fol-
lowing resolution was adopted: In order
that students may have an opportunity to
receive special training to fit themselves for
high-school work, We suggest TO the COL
leges and universities of Indiana the de-
STABILITY OF their preparing courses OF
study TO prepare teachers for high-school
work. and that these courses be offered In
summer terms"

GREAT PROSPERITY HERE
A PHILADELPHIA LUMBER DEALER
TALKS OF CONDITIONS.
Why So Many Houses Are Not Now
Built I'm the Quaker City-Superin-
tendent Hert in the City.

III. a. Reeves jr, of the wholesale lumber
firm Of r. B. Wheeler & Co., one of the
largest lumber firms in Philadelphia, Is
stopping at the Grand. In an interview last
night Mr.. Reeves said: Il hear that there
are some people who are still kicking and
say that the Iong-expected prosperity has
not yet arrived. and I want to say right
now that these kickers are the people who
wouldn't be satisfied with the earth. In
my business prices are advancing at such
rapid pace that / am very much afraid they
Will go too high.
What do I mean by that? Why, just let
me give you a little example. In the last
few years we have been putting up in Phil
acelphia no less than 5000 houses every
year. but the price of lumber is going up
so rapidly that no contractor in the East
will give a person who wishes to erect
house more than ten days option for fear
he will lose money on his contract. The
consequence Is that the same people will not
accept such terms and don't build the
houses. i will venture to say that we have
not put up SEQ houses in Philadelphia this
year. But this is also proving great bene-
mt, as there has been a surplus OF houses
put up every year and as a consequence 1t
cid serious damage to rental investments in
more ways than one.
But the farmers in Indiana don't forget
themselves and are not losing anything l
can tell you Every time / buy lumber of
one farmer and pay him good price for 1t
he tells his neighbor and the neighbor sim
ply adds another dollar on TO the thousand
But we have to buy II and / guess ii looks
like good times, doesn't il? Oh. yes, we are
having good times in the East but it is
mostly reflex of your prosperity out this
way. Do buy much lumber in Indiana?
Hundreds of carloads every year, but l am
just looking around over the ground this
trip and guess i have something like six
" carloads"

DRAGGED BY THE FENDER
EDWARD TAYLOR, A BAGGAGEMAN,
RECEIVES TERRIBLE INJURIES.
While Riding a Bicycle on North IL
IinOis Street He Is Run Down by
Street Garlic May Die.

A street-car accident about $50 last night
which. according TO many who witnessed 1t,
was thought to be due to a combination Of
fast running OF street-cars, fast riding of
a bicycle and the moonlight schedule of
street lighting resulted in serious and posi-
bly, fatal injuries to Edward Taylor. a
baggageman at the Union Station. Car No.
5ei, George Hinchman, motorman, was 60
ing south on Illinois street and was, it Is
said, running at unusual speed.
At Vermont street Taylor, who was rid
ing a bicycle, was struck by the car.
knocked from his wheel and caught under
the fender, in which position he was
dragged about two hundred feet before the
car could be stopped.
When Taylor fell he uttered a frightful
scream which attracted the attention Of
residents of the neighborhood and pedes-
TRANS, who also yelled at the motorman to
stop. When the car was stopped Taylor lay
under the fender. His bicycle was there
too, the rear wheel badly broken. Harry
Bryan, OF the Indianapolis Hominy Mills,
w. ID. Alexander, 436 North Illinois street,
and Robert Ceilings, 81 North Illinois
street, were the first TO reach him.
He was taken from under the so-called
life preserver, and it was found that his
legs were locked about the frame of the
bicycle He was unconscious and 1t was
with some effort that Mr.. Bryan separated
Taylor and the wheel. He was carried into
the undertaking rooms Of Flanner d
Buchanan, where medical attention was
given him. The physicians thought at first
Taylor was dead, his body being cold and
there being no noticeable heart action. He
soon showed signs of life. No bones were
broken, but his race ana head were terribly
bruised
A conveyance was called and he was re-
moved TO his home, 1i26 Hoyt avenue. DR..
Ritter, the family physician, was called and
after several hours attention thought
there might be some internal injuries. He
fears conclusion OF the brain. Taylor had
not recovered consciousness at an early
hour this morning. He has wife and one
son.
The scene of the accident was an I'M
usually dark one last night and the dim
lights on some of the cars showed up not
too plainly a hundred feet or more from
the crossing. No one seemed to know or
the car, but 1t was thought he was cross
ing the track and did not see the approch-
ing car. Witnesses said the motorman did
not appear TO have seen Taylor at all and
stopped because OF the cries uttered by
TayIor and others who saw what had hap
pened. Bryan, Alexander. Ceilings and a
woman, whose name was not learned, said
the car was running at nigh rate OF
speed. The employees of the Street-car COM
pany in charge OF the car made no state
ment or remarks relative to the accident,
simply giving their names. They could not
be found later, but at the Street-car stables
they reported that Taylor passed behind
car going north and ran in front or the
nesses seen last night remembered having
seen q car go north at that time.
