Attorney General Will Act.

Because the case of Sanders Hubbard
against the treasurer of Morgan county.
now in the Supreme Court. involves an at
tack on the constitutionality of Section lis
of the Indiana tax law Attorney General
Taylor has interviewed in the case and yes
terday filed a motion to advance its hear
ing. Mr.. Taylor will in a few days submit
a brief on behalf of the State in the case.
The facts in the suit are that the Morgan
County Board of Review increased Hub
bard's valuation of his real estate without
giving him notice and when he refused to
pay takes on the increased valuation the
treasurer made a levy on a pair of mules
which was his property. Hubbard asserts
that Section lis is unconstitutional because
il provides that the Board of Review may
increase the valuation of property without
giving the owner due notice.

indianapolis Soldiers See the Sights
One Man Slightly Hurt.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
BUFFALO, n. V, Sept. 11-This morning
the members Of Company ID, Second Infan-
try. Indiana National Guard, took the boat
for Niagara Falls and a more jolly crew of
soldiers would have been hard to find.
They thoroughly enjoyed all the beautiful
sights around the falls and became i'm
mensely popular with the great crowds that
constantly were coming and going all day.
Their pleasure, however, was somewhat
marred for a time by what was supposed
to be a severe accident TO one of their
members. but which, fortunately, turned
out to be nothing serious. When leaving
the Canadian side on the electric line one of
the members of the company was struck
the head by an iron post and knocked
off the car, which was at once stopped and
the man carried TO nearby bench. Cart.
Homer i. Jones, assistant surgeon of the
Second Infantry, who had accompanied the
party, was at once summoned and soon
brought the unfortunate man around. He
stated that nothing more serious had hap
pened to him than a bump on the head
which would result in a bad headache and a
little fever. The party soon regained its
good spirits as it journeyed along the rapids
and back again to the boat and camp.
Arriving at the exposition grounds Capt
NcClain found orders awaiting him 10 give
an exhibition drill following the dress pa
rade, which takes place al 5:45 o. clock each
evening. When the Indianapolis Light In
fantry marched upon the plaza there were
probably not more than 1900 people in at
tendance. Captain McClain deployed his
men TO the front. and, with the aid of mu-
sic, gave the army physical drill. This
was the first time that it had been given at
the fair. and created no end of interest
not only among the spectators, but among
all military men present. The people were
most liberal in their appreciation. and APP
plauded often. The crowd rapidly in
creased until IL was estimated that from
5000 to 5000 people saw the finish. at which
time the boys" received an encore
Two of the members secured appointments
to-day on the Pan-American police guard
and will go up tomorrow for their exam
ination.
Indications point to a great crowd here
on Saturday next. il being Indiana railroad
and Nassar College day. and il is being
most literally advertised. The first Vir-
ginia Regiment and ten companies of the
Florida National Guard are expected here
by Saturday morning.
