The entertainment given at Masonic Hall
last night in commemoration of the ami
versary of Robert Emmett, under the au-
spices of the Boys Father Mathew Bril-
gade, Company A, was varied as an up
to-date speciality show, and the large crowd
present greatly appreciated the variety.
The entertainment was for the benefit of
Company A. and the latter part of the pro-
gramme was given up to military life as
acted by the young cadets.
During the campfire there were musical
numbers, boxing and various other kinds
of fun by the young soldiers. There was a
battle and beautiful tableau. AFTER the
Battle" The first part of the programme
consisted of musical numbers, addresses
and recitations. The opening address was
by Judge w. G. Daily, and Mr.. Sherman
Steele spoke on Robert Emmett" Fanchon
Creasey, pretty little girl. who possesses
wonderful Evolutionary ability for one so
young, gave a recitation entitled Pride
of Company A" that won great applause
She was encored several times. Miss Hat
tie Neighbors was also given quite an ova-
ton when she sang solo suitable to the
occasion. Others participating In the first

VISIT OF REV. CLIFTON
FIELD SECRETARY OF CONGREGA.
TIONAL EDUCATION SOCIETY.
He Talks mt Plymouth Church In the
Morning and at MayhOwer I'm
the Evening.

Rev. Theodore Clifton. Western field sec
rotary of the Congregational Education So
ciety. delivered sermons to two congrega-
tions in this city yesterday, speaking in
the morning at Plymouth Church and in
the evening at the Mayfower Church. The
society represented by Rev. Clifton was or
ganized about eighty-three years ago for
the purpose of assisting INDECENT young
men who were worthy to an academic or
college education.
In 1915 the American College Society was
organized on the same basis and in the
course of a short time was merged into the
older society, which was then called the
American College Educational Society. The
society since its establishment has edu-
Gated more than nine thousand young men
for the ministry, four thousand of whom
would have been unable to have taken
either a college or an academic course. The
society has maintained for many years
anti-Mormon schools both in Utah and
Mexico. 1t has established about thirty
colleges, which to-day are for the most
part self-supporting. Among the colleges
established by the society was Wabash,
the only educational institution supported
by the society in the State of Indiana.
When Wabash College became self-sup-
porting the State was abandoned by the So
ciety, as its work was then completed.
When Prof. Hugh c.. Garvin, for many
years the professor of mathematics in But
Ter College, was compelled to leave that
college on account of his differences with
the board of trustees, he immedia tely
sought the aid of the educational society,
and, being assured of its support, estab-
lished a school at Ridgeville. In pursuance
of its promises the society has sent Mr..
Clifton to Indiana to secure what help he
can in a financial way for the Garvin
school at Rsdgeville. Mr.. Clifton is an able
and impressive speaker, and will no doubt
accomplish much for the struggling insti-
tuition at Ridgeville.
The topic of his address last evening was
Our Country-Its Perils and Safeguards. "
which menaced the country at the present
time was that of expansion. which was liza
bic to prove evil unless the people at
home were given higher education in or
der to maintain the equipose of the new
conditions. He said expansion meant a
population of many millions of people, a
great portion of whom were the incarna-
ton OF ignorance. He said that 1t became
imperative for the people to establish new
schools, in order that the masses might
become educated. He said another urgent
reason for the establishment of schools
was the fact that the quality Of our immi-
grafton was on the decline. He then de-
tailed at length the work of the society
which he represented, and of what II hoped
to do in Indiana. He said the work of the
society was more especially directed 20 the
Gators, and for this reason 1t was built
a noble DurDOSe.

FOR OVER THIRTY YEARS
A STREET-OPENING CASE HAS BEEN
PENDING IN TERRE HAUTE.
The Decision of Judge Baker I'm the
Case Affirmed by the Court
of Appeals.

The United States Court of Appeals in
Chicago Saturday affirmed the decision of
Judge Baker, of the United States District
Court, restraining the city of Terre Haute
from proceeding to open Ohio street
through the yards of the Evansville &
Terre Haute Railroad Company pending an
appeal taken by the company from the
award Of damages by the city commits
sioners.
This is the street-opening case that has
been before the city authorities Of Terre
Haute and the courts for thirty years The
railroad company once offered to build a
viaduct at its own expense, but the prop
erty owners in the immediate vicinity OBJ
jected, and the attempt was made by the
City Council to open the street at grade.
There are thirteen tracks at the crossing
point. The RAILROAD company's witnesses in
the hearing before the commissioners on
the question Of damages testified that the
company would be damaged from s25o,000 to
100000, but the commissioners awarded
about $4,000 a real estate value only. and
not taking into consideration the incurred
loss to the company in the operation Of its
business.
The City Council of Terre Haute Is to
have before it tomorrow evening the re-
quest of the new Southern Indiana for a
right of way across streets to enter the
city this spring It's route Is adjoining the
Evansville & Terre Haute, and will cross
Ohio street. 1t is proposed to have the
Council appoint a committee to join an
other from the Commercial Club to consult
with the railroad companies. 1t is recog-
nzed that at the best final decision by
the courts on the amount of the award of
damages is a long way off, and that the
amount may be beyond the city's ability or
willingness to pay. so that some practicable
agreement should be reached at once.

in THE COUNCIL CHAMBER
THERE WILL BE A DUAL ENTER
TAINMENT THIS EVENING.
City Council Will Hold n Session and
the Safety Board Investigation
VIII BE Continued.

There will be a dual entertainment at the
Council Chamber tonight, as both the
Common Council and councilmanic investi-
cation of the Board of Safety are scheduled
for the evening There is said to be moth
ing of Importance to come before the Coun-
ell meeting. The committee that has the
Tuxedo annexation ordinance under con-
sideration is not ready to report, but will
probably hold a meeting early in the even
ing. There will be an early adjournment
in order to proceed with the investigation.
There will be some interesting testimony
brought to light this evening In the investi-
cation which has not as yet been made
public. Attorney Harding, who is conduct
ing the examination of witnesses for the
committee, will not give out in, advance
just what he expects will be made public
during the evening, but admitted he had
found another witness who is ready TO take
the stand and throw some light on the real
cause of the dismissals of policemen and
firemen and also tell few things about
how the department of the Board of Safety
is conducted.
Another interesting witness this evening
will be ex-Patrolman Cox, providing the
committee will have time to hear his testi-
mony. He will tell about being accosted by
one of the Democratic sergeants on the
force previous TO the trials before the
Board of Safety, and claims he was told IL
he would sign an agreement not TO demand
pay from the city from the date of the dis
missals. Dec. 10, which were held TO be IL
legal, until formally discharged by the
board, he would be reinstated. Attorney
Harding also claims that there will be sew
eral other interesting features at tonight S
investigation.
