HINDU LIFE AND CUSTOMS
II. Ii. NnGarlSar of bombay Lectures
About Life in His Native
Land.

well satisfied audience left Unity church
last night, carrying with them pleasant
memories of an imaginary trip TO India under
the able guidance and instruction OF b. b.
Nagarkar of Bombay.
Not only the country itself was visited but
the proverbial hospitality of the Hindu pre-
vailed and the lecturer fed his American
listeners into the very heart OF domestic
life in India. In contrasting the vegetarian
diet OF India with the more robust menu
of a nAmerican table Mr.. Nagarkar spoke
of the latter as vast geological collection,
which but for the fact that the specimens
were disabled might rise up and depart
In this land of ancient customs and
usages pictured by the lecturer, where
people are governed by religion in their
eating and their sleeping in every move
ment of their daily life, where dinner tables
are unknown and people squat on stools and
eat their victuals with their fingers. where
the mother-in-law is the commander-in-
chief OF the family and brides are led to the
altar at s years OF age the listeners enjoyed
a pleasant hour and for while forgot the
hurry and hustle of western life.
Mr.. Nagarkar lectures tomorrow night on
the position of Hindu women in India,

ANNUAL MEETING IS HELD
shareholders of Mutual Lohn and
Building Association Elect
Directors.

The fourteenth annual meeting of the
shareholders of the Mutual Loan and Build
ing association was held in its office, Bee
building Monday evening. H. J. Sterling
presided and G. NJ. Nattinger acted as sec
retary.
Four directors to serve three years were
balloted for resulting in the selection of
f. w. Bartlett, II. j. Sterling, n. II. San
ford and 6. NJ. Nattinger.
Many interesting facts respecting the busi
ness of the association were given in the
annual report, covering transactions up to
March /. Twelve series of shares have been
matured and paid off since organization
in 1885. Forty one series are now running,
the oldest worth $193.45 each and the
youngest $3.02 each. Shares outstanding
number 203S, of which $685. are pledged
for loans. Assets amount to Sl22 9.66, of
which $4,000 is stock and mortgage loans.
The reserve fund amounts to 5000. Re-
cepts from all sources during the year end
ing February 2S were $50,12609, most of
which was disbursed in loans, redemption
of shares, expenses, etc. One year ago the
association had cash balance of So 52507.
Now it has $15 ,O5332. This item reflects
the robust condition of the associations
treasury. Money is abundant and borrowers
unusually scarce. 1t is a condition prevalent
in all associations and is in marked con-
trast with the scarcity of two years ago.
The Mutual expects to place all its surplus
and more in building loans as soon as the
building season opens up. Inquiries for such
loans are now greater than at any time in
the last six years and presage a large in
crease in the number of new homes and
home owners during the year.
In his annual address President Sterling
summarized the business of the year and
pronounced it very satisfactory, with one
eXCeption-the uncertainty of the real estate
market. A notable change for the better,
he said has taken place within few weeks.
The association has had numerous inquiries
and has about closed deals for several pieces
OF property on hand. within the last few
months" said President Sterling, "the pulse
of prosperity has been felt throbbing
throughout our land and city again and the
future looks brighter than before. We con-
fidently look forward to a more prosperous
year for the association than we have had
for some time"

cox GOES INTO DISTRICT COURT.
Questions Right of Fire aud Police
Commissioners to Dischnrge Him.

| Questions Right of Fire aud Police
Commissioners to Discharge Him.
An appeal from the action of the Fire
and Police commission dschargng him for
cowardice has been taken by ex-PoliCe Cap
tain William w. Cox. His attorneys have
filed a transcript and a petition in error
with the clerk Of the district court. Two
charges were preferred by Chief OF Police
Martin White on November 2S against Cox
one accusing him of cowardice and the ether
of inefficiency and gross neglect of duty.
These charges were the outcome of his
failure to arrest two boys, Geppner AMI
Won Haller at Forty-siXth and Cass
streets. shortly before noon November H.
One of the boys pointed a pistol at Cox
according to the specifications which the
commissioners sustained by their findings
and sentence and Cox ran away, allowing
the young burglars to escape.
A score of reasons is set forth in Cox's
petition in error Technically, he alleges
that the charges did not constitute offenses
under the law and the commissioners were
without jurisdiction. Then he contends that
they erred because he was not furnished be-
fore the trial with a list of the names of
Captain ]. ]. Donahue and Police Officers
J. R. Stine, Keysor and Dempsey, their
names not having been endorsed upon the
charges, is the usual custom with infor-
nations in the criminal court. Beyond this
he states that the charges were preferred
by Martin White in his private capacity
and not as chief Of police that White at
the time Of his appointment was not ell
igible to the office of chief of police, not
being an elector of the city. He also
raises the point that Commissioner Victor
Fl. Coffman and Mayor Moores were absent
from the meeting during the time the evil
denCe was being taken against him, but took
part in the deliberations which resulted in
his dismissal from the force. He charges
the mayor with having been prejudiced in
favor Of Keysor, Dempsey and Sullivan, who,
saws Cox. were the real guilty ones.
