Successful Concert Given by Pupils of

The concert given at Plymouth Church
last night by the pupils of school No. s was
a noteworthy success in every way. The
church contained an audience which filled
all OF its available space, and the rounds
OF enthusiastic applause that greeted the
conclusion OF every number showed that
the fresh young voices won their way into
the hearts OF everybody present. The school

boys and girls, none of whom are over six
teen years of age, that can perform sucn

President jenkins and Trustees Look
ing over the Ground.

President Jenkins of the University or
Indianapolis, and several of the trustees
looked over some of the sites suggested for
the university's new buildings yesterday aft
ernoon. A suggestion that has attracted
considerable attention is that the street.
railroad company give the university site
in Fairview Park. This suggestion has been
discussed with President WATSON, OF the
Street-railroad Company, and though de-
cision may not be reached for some time,
1t is understood the Street-railroad Com
pany will make the donation. The only OBJ
lection that is urged to Fairview Park for
the university is that il is good distance
from the city. Another scheme that is
talked of is that the university buy eighty
acres just west of the fair grounds and
build on the north half OF the land. Forty
acres south of the university buildings
pay for the whole eighty acres, those who
urge the plan say.
Still another site suggested is the land
on the south side of Fall creek. between
Central and College avenues. However, IL is
as likely that the new university buildings
will be located at Irvington as IL is that
they will be built north OF the city. irving
ton people talk of buying ground on the
north side of the national road, just oppo-
site the street-car barns. and giving 1t to
the university This gift would include a
strip OF land leading from the present col
iege campus to the national road President
Jenkins said yesterday that the outlook for
buildings is very encouraging. He said $4,000
would be enough to erect the first build
ing, TO accommodate the college and the
law school. The first S2So,0Oo that is re-

FIGHT ON BLAKE STREET
FIERCE BATTLE LAST NIGHT BE-
TWEEN WHITE AND CoLoRED BOYS.
Clubs, Stones and Bricks Used by Both
Sides-Stopped by the
Police.

Great excitement was caused on Blake
street last evening about o'clock by
fight between about seventy-fve white lads
and twelve or fifteen colored boys. Clubs,
stones, bricks, fists and in fact anything
handy were the weapons. The fight started
near the Washington-street bridge and was
continued along Blake street until the
crowd reached Michigan street. when the
police appeared and the fighters disap-
peared. Hoss Logan. colored, $50 West
Walnut street. was badly hurt by being
struck on the head with stone. Oscar
Bocklain. living at the same place. and
Robert Haskin. both colored. were also
considerably bruised by flying missiles.
The trouble was. according TO all oc-
counts. started by the white crowd and is
said to have originated over the employ
ment Of several colored men at the Indian
apolis foundry. on Harding street. A strike
OF about fifty men employed al the foundry
was reported, but this is denied by the
management James 1. Dissette, secretary
and treasurer, said he knew of nothing OF
the kind. He said there were about twenty
men and boys employed in the trimming
department, three OF whom were colored
Wednesday seven of the white boys quit
work. There was no request or demand, so
far as Mr.. Dissette knew, that the colored
men and boys be discharged as was re-
ported. Yesterday the white boys hung
around the foundry and remarks were
heard indicating a desire on their part TO
get" the colored lads. Just as Mr.. Dissette
started away last night he heard one Of the
boys say: well. / guess they're too many
for US. but We'll get them some other
night" When the dplored employees came
out the white boys followed When the
Washington-street bridge was reached the
crowd Of boys had greatly increased, while
the ranks of the others were depleted. Dr.
Otto b. Pettijohn, who lives on Blake
street. was returning in a buggy from a
professional visit and ed into Blake
just as the first rock was thrown. This
struck his horse and others followed thick
and fast. The doctor says he was Obliged
TO turn down an alley to escape. Here he
tied his horse and returned TO the street
and watched the fight Many OF the men
were known TO him and he says he heard
such remarks as They can't get away al
ways" IF we can't get them tonight we'll
get them some other" Give it to the
