them, and they were 10 no special

but feared the result ON the body of

PERMANENT ENDOWMENT FUND OF

State Auditor VIII Forward warrants
to Counties To-Day-Condi-
ton OF the Fund.

The auditor Of state has completed the
semi-annuaI distribution OF the permanent
endowment fund OF Indiana University.
and will to-day forward warrants to the
various counties for the amounts appor-
toned. The permanent endowment fund
was created by the levy for thirteen years
of u cent tax on every 800 worth of tax
able property. The principal OF the fund
cannot be used, but it Is provided by law
that IL can be loaned on real estate Sc
curity with interest at 6 per cent. The
interest as collected becomes available and
is used to pay the salaries OF the profess
sors OF the university. Until 1897 the
money was loaned under the supervision
of the auditor of state, but the Legisla-
ture Of that year ordered him to collect
the outstanding loans and TO distribute
the fund as collected to the various coun-
ties of the State, prorating IL according
TO the enumeration of voters of 1895. When
received by the counties the none ID

law as was the auditor Of state. The fol-
lowing apportionment Is the sixth distribu-

Because of the Success of n

Speaking of the permanent exhibition of

the Cyclorama property was arranged, Mr..
John w. Ryckman. under whose direction
the exhibition was projected, said last even
ing: "Sinc the Auditorium and Commercial
Museum seems now assured of successful
promotion our enterprise will be abandoned
and all the manufacturers and others who
engage in it will work for the greater, more
important and more permanent institution.
We intended merely a display of products
of the mills. factories and works of the
State for the benefit of visiting ommer-
cialists from all parts of the country, but
the Commercial Museum comprehends. a
much wider scope and the permanent ex-
hibition will be only an auxiliary of a
system of important features of the city's
general scheme of attentions and advan-
tages. With much more room and a better
plan of display the exhibition will be ex-
tended into a commercial museum similar

turers Unreasonable benefits. II has, in

gained governments recognition.

an affair of this kind the way should be
