turn their attention to the raising of large
horses Of pedigreed stock. The result is
that the Western horse is now an animal
that weighs from 100 to 1 400 pounds when
he first comes of the grass. After they
have been fed out they weigh from 400
to 1850 pounds. IL Is a curious thing
about those horses that. while they seem
TO be in fair flesh when they are taken
off the grass. they keep on growing and
filling out until they have added several
hundred pounds TO their weight.
The chief obstacle that has prevented
the sale of Western horses in Eastern
markets continued Mr.. Blair, lis the
brand that every horse that comes from
the range wears on his flank. Buyers in
this part OF the country have an unreason-
glad 10 say this prejudice is fading away.
The fact is. the time is radiply approach
the brand. for native horses are getting
soarcer. Why. more horses nave died this
summer than in any summer before in the
history OF the United States. Now these
animals nave TO be replaced. and there is
not enough native horses TO do IL.
However, there is little or no reason
Tor the prejudice that exists against brand
ed horses. Buyers should bear in mind
that these are native-bred animals. bred
right on the range They are not bron-
chos. As a rule. the rang horses are either
coach or draft animals. mostly draft
horses. There are some trotting-bred
horses also in the lot that our company
dispose Of about 800 head of range horses.
If the sale is successful, and l have no
doubt it will be, we will have more of the
animals here in about two or three weeks.
You see. this is a new business in this
market and we have to find out how the
buyers are going 10 take to the innova-
ton"
Mr.. Blair said that the range horses
are chiefly bays. sorrels and browns in
color end that their form is excellent.
There will be the regular Wednesday
horse auction at the Blair-Baker stables
to-day. About 175 animals have been re-
ceived 20 be sold at this auction, and il
is said a number of good harness horses
are to be found in the lot. ut looks now
as though we are going TO have a good
market right on through July and August"
said Mr.. Blair. and that is an uncommon
thing for this time of the year. OF course.
the prices are not holding up quite as
firmly as they did in the spring or as they
Will this fall, but that is to the advantage
of the men who buy. This is an excel
for little money"

her at the home of his brother for three
years and that she was compelled to do the
heavy Homework for both households. She
saws he also kept her in a shack OF a house
for a year. where the kitchen rested over
a cellar that had caved In and was filled
with water. On account of the condition Of
the floor. which. she says. allowed the
water 10 come into the house at times. she
was made sick and confined 10 her bed.

cised her for turning his dogs out OF the
house. failed TO provide. compelled her to
in the winter OF 1896 and 1897 to wash, and
that he furnished her with but one dress

TWO SUITS FILED.
They Are Designed to Prevent the
OPENING of an Alley.

The Big Four Railroad Company yester-
day brought suit against the city for $500
damages for land condemned and appro-
priated in the opening of an alley from
North to Walnut streets along the COM
pany's tracks near Senate avenue. The
plaintiff says that a strip of land twelve
feet wide and 800 feet long of its right
of way was appropriated without just
compensation.
A companion suit was filed by Amos B..
Keeport against the Board of Works to
enjoin the board from opening the alley.
He has a feed and -four mill on the COM
pany's right of way, and says that the
opening OF the alley will necessitate the
removal Of his buildings. The land is
leased from the railroad company, but ne
AYERS his buildings were erected at a cost
of 1900. He also says the proposed i'm
provement will prevent him from having
a place TO load and unload his products
and that his business will be ruined. In
addition to these charges Keeport says
that the board proceeded irregularly. in
that he was not duly notified of the pro-
posed improvement. that he objected to IT
verbally and that the board took nnal ac-
ton without notifying him.

FOR A STOCK
Movement Among Local Financial
Men Caused by Boom.

The growing importance OF Indianapolis
as a financial center has occasioned a re-
newal OF talk OF organizing a local stock
exchange. TIL movement appears endowed
with more strength than ever before. and
this is ascribed TO the unusual local actiy-
ity in securities during the past year. A
number of the banks and trust companies
OF the city are said 20 be interested In the
plan, which comprehends the organization
OF a regular stock exchange in which local
securities may be listed.
Brokers have. for some time. believed
that there ought 10 be some way by which
they can get together and arrange a local
market that will enable buyers and sellers
of stocks TO meet openly and above board.
IL Is thought IL the exchange Is established

only three times a week The recen: rapid
growth OF banking capital and OF invest
ment and speculation in Indianapolis are
subjects Of much comment In local COM
mercial circles.

STATES SWAMP N
George ID. Parks. of Lafayette, APP
pointed TO Make n Survey.


THE insertion Of three little words in a
bill passed by Congress Sept rs. 1850. meant
millions of dollars of wealth to many
States and Territories OF the Union" de-
clared Attorney General Taylor yesterday.
THE bill l refer to- continued Mr.. Tay-
Tor. was originally drawn so as TO enable
the State of Arkansas TO claim all the
swamp lands within its borders. but a
quick-witted member of the national legis-
lative body-most likely from Indiana-in-
terpolated. in the shape of an amendment,
the words and all other States just after
the word Arkansas This is how it hap
pened that all the swamp lands through
out the United States were plated. located
and turned over TO the respective States.
These lands had no special value at that
time, but since then. through systematic
drainage, they have grown to be worth I'M
told Millions
Mr.. Taylor's interesting observations were
suggested by receiving a visit from George
ID. Parks, of Lafayette, who was yester-
Gay appointed by Governor Duroln as en-
gineer 10 run levels on the kankakee river
from Momence Rock, Ill, to the head
waters OF the river near South Bend. Ind.
Mr.. Parks will also survey the lands to
which the State OF Indiana is now entitled
and all other lands to which it claims title.
He will. in addition TO the foregoing, as
certain how the waters above the Panhan,
die Railroad bridge can be let down and
out Of the kankakee basin by drainage, II
this is possible at all.
The appointment OF Mr.. Parks was made
in accordance with q clause IN the general
appropriation bill passed by the last Leg
islature. One thousand dollars was appro-
priated TO pay ths expenses or doing this
work. Mr.. Taylor said that some years ago
the State expended about $4,000 in blasting
the rock az Momence. Ill. so as 10 lower
the water In the Kankakee basin on the
Indiana side. and this work alone reclaimed
many thousands OF acres OF land in In
diana. The chief object of Mr.. Parks's work
will, IL il said. be 10 enable State Of
hcials 10 know just how much or this
swamp land there is and also 10 devise a
plan by which the land can be drained.

The National League of Improvement
Associations with headquarters at
Springfield. Ohio, wishes to secure the
organization of an affiliated society in
this place. The object of the league is
to bring into communication for ac-
quaintance and mutual helpfulness all
organizations interested in the promo

town, village and neighborhool i'm
provement. It's work is directly In line
with that recently inauguratei by the

afforded by the national league in this
kind Of work will doubtless be utilized
by the local club. There are said to

soelatlons with an aggregate member
ship Of fully one hundred thousand
Something Of the magnificent work
these organizations are doing is shown
by handsome Illustrated pamphlet en-
titled The Work of Civic Improve
ment," issued for the national league.
This pamphlet gives many striking ex-
amples )f the work accomplished in
different parts Of the country by the
local improvement associations, in the
Improvement of streets and highways
parks, private grounds, etc. It would
pay hundred-fold in the end If the
business men Of This city woull order
a thousand Or more copies Of this PAM
phlet for distribution among the homes
OF the city. A look at the beautiful
Scenes which it pictures would be TO
every intelligent citizen an incentive TO
endeavor. As the secretary Of The
National League Of Improvement As
sociations has well said, The benefits
to be derived are manifold, as the work
appeals both to material and philan-
thropic interests. The town which has
well-kept streets beautiful parks, at

conditions, is the town the moral de-
