TEACHERS OF The STATE
ANNUAL MEETING OF THE STATE
ASSOCIATION DURING HOLIDAYS.
j.. w. Carr, superintendent of the An
dersOn schools, in the City
Visitors to the Hotels.

j.. w. Carr, superintendent of the city
schools at Anderson, and c. NJ. Mcdaniel,
superintendent of the Madison schools,
were at the Grand Hotel last night. They
are visiting teachers association meetings
in different counties. Professor Carr was
at Lebanon yesterday. He says the pro-
gramme for the meeting of the State
Teachers Association, to be held in this
city during the Christmas holidays, has
practically been completed, but has not
yet been printed.
The Teachers Association will convene
at the Statehouse on Dec. 20. Professor
Carr says that some of the best known
educators of the country are on the pro-
gramme. Among them is Louis F. Sedan,
superintendent of schools at ST. Louis,
who will deliver the annual address. Prof.
Halleck, principal of the Boys High School
at Louisville, is also on the programme.
One of the chief features of the meeting
will be a symposium on the SUBJECT, THE
Next Step in Education in Indiana"
Among those who will take part in this
discussion are r. L. Hamilton, of Ohio, ID.
NJ. Geeting, of Greensburg, and W.. W..
Parsons, of the State Normal at Terre
Haute. Professor Carr believes that one
of the important steps that will be taken
next in school work will be the elimination
of politics from the management of the
schools. He cites his own city as an illus
tratiOn of how schools may be managed by
a nonpaTtisan school board. Professor
Carr thinks that a better training of
teachers is necessary in this State. There
should be a time he said, when a man
would no more be allowed to teach school
without having made some special prepa-
ration than he would be allowed to prac-
tice medicine Additional normal facili-
ties, Professor Carr thinks. would be one
way of giving teachers a better training.
He is in favor of the State establishing
another normal school.

ACTIVITY At EVANSVILLE.
The City Is Prosperous and Many
People own Their Homes.

There are more people in Evansville
who own their own homes than in any city
1 know of containing the same population
was the assertion made by S. ". Cook, an
insurance man of Evansville. who was at
the Grand Hotel last night. Mr.. Cook says
there is a great deal of manufacturing be-
ing carried on in Evansville at this time.
and the people are working and are pros
porous. He thinks the city has bright
prospects for the future. One of the big
gest improvements contemplated in the
town just now is the new $3.50, 600 depot
which the l.. q n. road is preparing to
build The railway company has pur-
chased four squares of ground and has
RACED the buildings that stood on the site.
The government is still dredging in the
Ohio river at Evansville. and Mr.. Cook
thinks it will not be many years until a
channel Is made in the river which will
permit the passage of boats the year
around. Evansville people had a great
scare a few years ago when the river
showed marked signs of taking a new
course. Had the water been allowed to
take the new course the city would now be
four or five miles from the Ohio. How
ever, the government took the matter in
hand and succeeded in keeping the water
in the original channel. The danger of the
river taking a different course is now prac-
tically over, it is thought.

VISIT OF CAPTAIN HOBSON
HERO OF THE MERRIMAC INCIDENT
NOW IN THE CITY.
At TomIinsOn Hall Tonight He Will
Lecture in the v. VI. c. A. Course
on 'The American Navy"

Capt. Richmond Pearson Hobson, the
daring young naval officer who, with a
band of brave men, blocked the har-
Dor channel at Santiago by sinking the
Merrimac during the Spanish-American
war. and who subsequently suffered severe
ly at the hands of acoring femininity dur
ing a trip through the United States, ar
rived in the city yesterday afternoon from
Washington. where he has been stationed
with the Bureau of Construction and Re
pairs, a department of the United States
navy.
Captain Hobson will deliver a lecture to-
night for the benefit Of the Y. NJ. C. A. lee
ture course. In the meantime he is the
guest of Mr.. and Mrs. w. H. Coleman at
their home, No. 1905 North Meridian street.
Captain Hobson is delivering a series of
about ten lectures on The American
Navy" At the conclusion of his lecture
tour he will proceed to Charleton, S. c., to
be the representative of the navy at the
Charleston exposition. Captain Hobson be-
came acquainted with Mr.. and Mrs. Cole
man at Hong-Kong while he was on duty
at Manila Shortly after the close of the
Spanish-American war Hobson was sent to
the Philippines to take charge of the work
Of raising the sunken Spanish war vessels
in Manila bay. He has been back from the
Philippines about a year. Among the first
things he did after returning to the United
States was to go to the Presbyterian Hos
pital in New York with a case of typhoid
fever. He was on sick leave about six
months.
Captain HobsOn was seen by a Journal
reporter at the Coleman residence last
night. He is a young man of athletic build,
tall and straight and decidedly cookbook
ing. Like most officers of the army and
navy, he has nc disposition to talk about
himself. He declined to discuss the af-
fair in which he so prominently figured at
Santiago. IL don't think it is fitting that L
should talk about it," he said. He ex-
planned that he had written the story of
the affair for an American magazine, and
he thought those who were particularly in
terested in the Santiago incident had either
read of 1t or could do so. He does not dis
cuss the blowing up of the Merrimac in his
lecture. he says.
Yesterday afternoon Captain Hobson
took a carriage ride about the city and on
his return expressed himself as highly
pleased with what he had seen of the city.
He has never been in Indianapolis before,
but likes the city very much. Captain
HObson is a native of the South, having
been brought up in Alabama.

NEW FACTORY IN SIGHT.
Talk of One Locating Her that VIII
One Thousand Men.

There is a favorable prospect that In
dianapolis may secure a new factory that
will employ 1000 men. Some days ago a
prominent manufacturer wrote to his
friend, Sewall Nebeker, asking him If 1T
would be possible to secure a building in
this city with 1900 square feet of floor
space. Mr.. Nebeker consulted Secretary
Hunt, of the Commercial Club, with the
result that the factory will probably be
located here. A building with the amount
of floor space required by the manufacturer
is not now available, but ii is thought
one can be secured that will answer the
purpose after additions have been made.
An extra effort is now being made by the
Commercial Club TO secure new factories.

Men Testify that Their Names Were
Used without Authority.

The Schafer license remonstrance hearing
was resumed before the County Commits
sioners yesterday with the Introduction of
witnesses for the saloon element. Robert
$. Miley. sos North Senate avenue, whose
name was on the remonstrance. said he
did not know that his name was to be
used against Schafer when he signed it.

the head OF the temperance movement in
the Fourth ward, represented to him that
the remonstrance was against a proposed
saloon at Thirtieth and Illinois streets. He
asked that his name be withdrawn. other
witneS seS were introduced 10 show that
the temperance people had got up a blanket
remembrance, giving the power OF attOr-
ney 10 sign their names against the grant
ing OF a license to any saloon in the
Fourth ward. Several men testified that
their wives had signed their names with
out their consent. These were stricken of.
The afternoon was spent in striking of
names by agreement Of the attorneys with
out the Introduction % testimony. The
case may not be ready for argument until
