A LACK OF PATRONAGE
THE Y. NJ. c. A. LECTURE COURSE
MAY BE DISCONTINUED.
Called Meeting of the Members to
Discuss the Subject-A Def
cit Last Year.

The Y. NJ c. A. lecture and entertain
ment course is in serious danger OF being
discontinued after the present season
comes to an end. This was the subject of
the &C. B. O." or Great Big Question"
which uniquely designed and worded cir
culars announced would be discussed at a
meeting in the auditorium of the associa-
TONS building last night.
An interesting programme was given be-
fore the serious business of the evening
was taken up. The first number was
song by the Imperial Quintet talented
local organization. made UP of Everett f.
Berry and w. H Holton, first tenors; F.
M. Ketcham, second tenor and director; r.
II. Johnson, first bass, and William Z.
Schelke, second bass. James NJ. Bradford.
the well-known retired actor, followed in
two recitations. The last number was a
trombone solo by Master Charles Arthur
Lewis, the former boy elocutionist who
entertained Governor Mount at the execu-
tive department in the Statehouse on sew
eral occasions during the first year of his
term. Each one of the entertainers was
given an enthusiastic encore.
The &c. b. O." was stated by Secretary
Howser In very brief speech. Mr.. How
ser sketched rapidly and tersely the growth
and development of the Y. NJ.
c.. A, and recalled the success
of the lecture and entertainment course in
former years. He said, however, that dur
ing the past few seasons there has been
a marked falling off in both attendance
and interest, SO that unless there is great
change before the present series of enter
tainments has been concluded. the enter
prise will have to be abandoned.
Secretary Howser's note of warning was
echoed by President Whitehead, who stated
that he had been connected with this de-
partment of the Y NJ c. A. work ever
since it was started, thirteen years ago,
and that I'D to the last three years the as
ISOLATION had made money-sometimes as
much $500 on a course-but that the bal
ance has been ION the other side of the
ledger since that time, last years deficit
being $500. Messrs. Howser and Whitehead
made an urgent appeal to the large body
OF young men present to bestir themselves
and make an effort TO raise the sale of sea-
son tickets for the current season above
its present mark-350 why" said Mr..
Howser, ''you would be ashamed to have
ii stated in to-morrows papers that only
$50 season tickets have been sold this year,
when in other years the sale has gone as
high 800 800"

THE COMMITTEE CHILLED
REPUBLICAN LEADERS TO MEET
HERE NEXT THURSDAY.
Officers of the Lincoln League Will
Also Meet the Same Day-Dem-
Ocratic Headquarters.

A call has been issued for a meeting OF
the Republican State committee next
Thursday at headquarters I'm the Majestic
building. This will be the first meeting
of the committee since the election and
will probably be the last for some time,
as there will be few matters of moment
for the committee to consider after it has
wound up the business incident to the cam
paign.
There will also be a meeting Thursday OF
the president, vice president, secretary and
treasurer and district vice presidents OF
the Lincoln League. This meeting will
also be held at Republican State head

business will be the arranging Of details

Secretary Hawkins is still holding
down" Democratic headquarters in the alb
sence of Chairman Martin, who is sticking
close TO his business at Spencer. 1t is not
the purpose to keep the Democratic head
quarters open very long after the State
committee has had a meeting. Commit
teeman Neal, OF the Ninth district who Is
suffering with typhoid fever at his home In
Lebanon, is reported as improving, and the
meeting of the committee will probably
not be held until he is able TO attend.

TAGGART ON BANKS'S BOND.
The Notorious Saloon Keeper Re-
leased After Night i'm Jail.

After dozen or more attempts to secure
6cceptances of bail for John Banks,
charged with corrupting voters. who was
arrested on a grand jury warrant. he was
released about O'Clock last night on bond
OF 5000 signed by Mayor Thomas Taggart
and Deputy City Attorney Bell.
Yesterday Albert Fearing called at the
jail several times and took to that place
nine men who went there to furnish bail,
but all were refused, after which Taggart
and Bell went to Banks'S rescue.
Deputy Sheriff Koerner complained last
night that an afternoon paper charged
him with refusing to accept bond for
Banks after 10 o'clock Friday night on &C
count of the lateness of the hour, when
his reason for not allowing them TO take
Banks out was that he did not consider the
bond offered sufficient security, for the rea-
son that Gearing and Themes were already
on other bonds in similar cases.

COUNTY COUNCIL MEETS.
Appropriations Made and Voting Ma
chimes Discussed.

The new County Council organized yes
terday with n. S. Byram president and
A. III. Nordyke vice president An ordi-
nance was introduced TO allow $1,000 to
cover the deficit in the payment Of election
expenses. The allowance made was s2o,-
4i1.73, which was about $1,000 short of the
actual expenses Another ordinance appro-
priating $50 to pay Ed Hugg. clerk in the
probate department. to cover the lack of
a sufficient appropriation for that purpose
was introduced, and another provided for
500 TO pay expenses of the County Board
of Charities.
The Council will convene tomorrow,
when the question of adopting voting ma
chimes will be considered. The former
County Council refused to take up the
question, although the members expressed
themselves as favorable to the adoption of
machines, because there is no provision
by statute for that method OF voting. 1t
was thought the introduction of machines
without a provision OF that kind would
lead TO complications, contests and litiga-
ton. AS there is a session of the Legisla-
ture intervening between now and the next
election something may be done.

Daviess County Republicans Want
the Law Changed.

Daviess county Republicans are consider
ing the matter of presenting to the Legis-
lature bill changing the manner Of elect
ing county superintendent, and backing
the bill with a strong lobby. 1t is pro-
posed to have the law so amended that the
county superintendent will be elected by
popular vote. One Of the arguments which
is advanced in support Of the change Is
contained in an editorial in the Washing
ton Gazette, and is as follows:
THE county SUPPLEMENTARY has been
ar Office of barter and sale for so long
that the public is almost rightfully led &c
believe that each election is tainted with
fraud. Poorly paid township trustees even
up by selling to county superintendent,
and this open door TO fraud and bribery
