The old-time and living war

the Jacob Lift company at the Clunie
Opera house last night, and won such
success and caused so many to be
turned away because of inability TO OBJ
tain seats, that it will be repeated to-
morrow Sunday night. by request.
The original plan was for the company
to take rest here for three days be-
fore entering upon the Northwest tour,
leaving Monday afternoon for the
North. But the demand for the repeti-
ton of the spectacle has resulted in

company added to the enthusiasm as
the curtain went up for the third time
by appearing grouped tier above tier,
waving torn battle flags and small Stars

the banner, while trumpets blared and

Shortly before o'clock last night the hull
Of the Indianapolis Aquatic Clubs house
boat was successfully launched into the
water just north of the park at Broad Rip
pie, and it struck the water with a big
splash. There was some concern among
the members OF the club over getting this
hull into the water, for the floating surface
of it is much larger than anything that has
been constructed on this part OF White
river, the dimensions OF the boat being
eighty-two by twenty-four feet. The sur
face is a fiat bottom. Custodian Sullivan,
who had been perspiring at a dreadful rate
for five hours TO get the boat ready TO slide
down the ways, was happy as a small
child when she went into the water sue
cessfully. The hull does not draw more
than four inches of water and when the
superstructure is completed il will not draw
over one foot. Work will begin Monday on
this superstructure which will consist OF

deck will be used for dancing and loung-
ing hall with a kitchen in the rear The

WOMEN FLOCKED TO STAGE EN-
TRANCE AFTER THE MATINEE.
Speeches Demanded Last Night-Mr.
HanseIs Father Died During
the Performance.

There gathered at the Grand Opera House
Yesterday afternoon and last night large
audiences composed of people who had
closely followed the work Of the stock COM
pany during the season, and who looked on
the company as an institution of the city.
IL was early apparent that there was a
farewell ovation on hand. Throughout the
matinee the applause was unstinted. When
the last curtain was rung down and the au-
dience left the theater the mouth of the al
ley at the side Of the theater filled with
women of all ages. The crowd increased
and extended into the alley along the side
walks. The women were waiting for the
members of the company TO come out. A
group of young and impressionable girls
fitted down to the stage entrance and
peeped through the door. They saw no one
Come on" cried one, "they are escaping
through the front door,.
This started rush for the front Of the
theater, but it was discovered that the girl
did not know whereof she spoke. The MEM
bers of the company FASTENED one by one
from the stage entrance TO the side door
of the Denison House. They were not hurt
or molested; they were only stared at.
The theater was packed last night. After
the performance the audience cheered the
curtain up again and voiced demand for
Mr.. Hansel to appear. The whole company
returned TO the stage and Mr.. Hansel made
a speech. He grateful to the audience
for its kindly approval Of the company
throughout the season. There was Pc
culiar note of seriousness in his voice that
was only understood by his personal friends.
During the afternoon he received tele-
gram announcing the death of his father at
Chillicothe, O., but he had TO continue his
work, and with the same outward show of
spirit as if all were happy with him. That
is part of the theatrical business.
Mr.. Kirkland was next called for. Instead
of making a speech he calamity led Miss
Shannon to the footlights, and she eX-
pressed her thanks to the audience Fol-
lowing her all the members Of the company
except Mr.. Kirkland made little speeches,
and all were received with equal enthusiasm
by the audience. Mr.. Kirkland fled Mr..

There was an added burst of enthusiasm
when Miss Shannon announced that she
was to be a member of the Grand stock
company next season. Mr.. Murdoch, the
business manager, expressed the apprecia-
ton of the attend nee during the season
from the box office point of view.

BROAD RIPPLE ROAD.
VIM. III. Schmidt, County Treasurer,
Heads the New Company.

The property OF the Indianapolis &
Broad Ripple Rapid Transit Company has
been purchased by new corporation whose
identity has not been fully made known.
William III. Schmidt, county treasurer, is
president of the new company, but he de-
clines to say who else is interested. Mr..
Schmidt returned from the East on Friday.
He says the deal was concluded in New
York few days ago. Other Indianapolis
men are interested in the company. he says,
but for a few days they are not to be known
TO the public. It is expected that the road
will be turned over TO the purchasers within
short time. Mr.. Schmidt says the new
company has arranged TO settle all of the
Indebtedness of the old corporation.
Although the information does not come
from Mr. Schmidt ii is said that the price
paid for the road is less than $1,000. In In
building the road the late X. i. Mcdonald
issued $4,000 Of bonds. giving them as Sc
curity for notes of the face value of $1,000.
1t is said that these notes were received at
so great a discount that the mortgage OF
10000 on the road and park is represented
by Indebtedness amounting TO only about
$4,000. There are other claims against the
read amounting TO about $4,000
il is asserted by some that the Broad Rip
pie line has been purchased in the interests
of the Indianapolis Street-railway Company.
Mr.. Schmidt says that more cars will be
put in use and that the line will be gen
orally improved. The Broad Ripple Park Is

tracks. City Attorney Kern, who has just
returned from West Baden. City Engineer

Commercial Clubs elevated track commit
tee were also present at the meeting. The
mayor opened the discussion with the sug
gestion that the Council appoint COM
mittee TO Cooperate with the Board of
Works In an attempt to adjust the question
In fairness to both the city and the rail-
roads. The mayor expressed himself as
warmly in favor Of the elevated track sys-
tenn, and said that he thought it would
be good thing for Indianapolis.
Mr.. Fortune agreed with him, adding that
the plan offering the easiest solution would
be to elevate the Union tracks east and
west between the Belt road, taking away
entirely the north and south tracks. He
said that, so far, the railroads seemed dis
posed to resent every plan suggested by the
Commercial Clubs commission. City En-
gineer Jeup told the assembly that he had
made some preparatory plans, but that at
present he was not in a position to offer
anything definite.
Mr.. Kern, the city attorney, made an ad-
dress from legal standpoint. He said that
there was really no doubt of the city's
power TO demand the elevation of tracks,
but that, on account of the apparent dis
position of the railroads to antagonize the
movement. 1t would be we'll for the city
TO fortify istelf with all the legal power OBJ
tainable.
IF all other plans fall he said, 'the city
can use stragetc methods. We can require
by ordnance without the least chance or
successful opposition, the building of via
ducts by the railroad companies. Now, ele-
waited tracks are OF course, much more de-
sirable and If the companies find themselves
in a position where they will be obliged to
choose between the viaducts and the ele-
VationS, they will choose the latter, as the
expense incurred would be much less. /
trust, however. that the matter can be set
tied in an amicable manner, and that the
relations between the city and the railroads
will not become strained on account Of the
movement"

the movement, and the conference endd
with the agreement that the president OF
the Council should appoint a committee OF
three at the next Council meeting to effect,
