A SHOW AND A BANQUET.


The delegates to the bookbinders' con-
vention were given a treat last night at
the South Side Turnverein Hall by the
members of Union No. So The entertain
ment committee of the local union had
arranged a banquet and a vaudeville en-
tertanment, preceded by an exhibition
drill in the garden Of the clubhouse by the
William Z. English zouaves. The occasion
was made particularly enjoyable to the
visitors by the presence of Mayor Book
walter, who has made himself very popu-
lar among them by his hospitable words
of welcome and activity in securing their
comfort and enjoyment
The evenings pleasure began in the gar
den of the clubhouse about 9 o'clock. The
delegates and their friends were received
by special committees, who seated them at
tables scattered about the garden. A band
played for hour while refreshments
were served. At one end of the brilliantly
lighted and decorated garden plank wall
had been erected to initiate as nearly as
possible the wall OF Picking scaled by the
American soldiers. After the English zou-
ayes had gone through a complicated drill
they rushed the wall in soldierly style and
scrambled up its steep sides with blood
curding yells. Their energy under depress-
ing atmospheric conditions was applauded.
AT $3.50 the call 10 the banquet room was
sounded. and preceded by President Tatum
the delegates marched in 10 dinner. The
women of the German society had pre-
pared an appetizing Dutch lunch and
stood around in white aproned neatness to
attend TO the wants of the visitors Presi-
dent Tatum took the toastmasters seat,
and after remarking that he was perhaps
more at home with the implements Of his
craft than in making an impromptu speech,
introduced Mayor Bookwalter.
The mayor created considerable amuse-
ment by remarking that about all he had
done for the last few days was TO make
speeches to bookbinders. There were many
women i'm the hall, and the MAYOR made
story: DIR. Buckley, the eminent Metno-
uist divine, in a recent Methodist assem-
blage, speaking on the question of admit
ting women as lay delegates. said: God
created the world and man in six days, and
then, looking around. saw that man needed
a woman 10 make him perfect. He created
woman and placed her by mans side. Then
he rested. and since that time neither God
nor man has had any rest
Now said the mayor. Il don't agree
with that sentiment" He concluded his
talk with the expressed wish that the book
binders would not leave the city without
passing a resolution that Indianapolis
should be the permanent meeting place of
the organization.
An entertaining vaudeville performance
followed. in which the hit was made by
song written for the occasion by j. Henry
Burton and Miss Grace Valentine, entitled
You Amt No Regular Boadah Heah."
Burton sang the rag time in a manner that
gained him applause. and Miss Valentine
accompanied him with true rag-time spirit

the house at present" he said, land could
take care of about six hundred" Among
the notables at the hotel is Lew Dock

papers that my name had been mentioned

true that / am not TO be on the committee

r E Breed. OF Marion. who is prorni-

terday. He is associated with George A. II.
Shideler in the manufacture OF bottles at
Marion. THE bottle concerns OF the State
will put out their fires the last day of
June" said Mr.. Breed yesterday, land the
men will not return 10 work until the 1st of
September. This is a part Of the contract
made every year-that the fires shall be out
for two months during the summer. 1t is
not an enforced idleness, for the men are
willing TO lay off that long. This will mean
that perhaps 5000 bottle makers will be
unemployed during July and August. Some
time in August the bottle manufacturers
and a committee from the unions will go
down to Atlantic City and make wage
scale for next year There is no likelihood
of a change in wages. While prosperity
has pretty generally taken hold of the
country II has not hit the bottle industry
very hard. Bottles are cheaper now than
they ever were and the cost of production
is higher. Men who work in the bottle es-
adjustments really enjoy the two months
lay-off They work pretty hard the re-
mainder of the time and earn big wages.

TOPAY GAMEWELL'SP
CITY ATTORNEY, 1T Is UNDERSTOOD,
ADVISES AGAINST SUIT.
Reported that He Has Sot Discovered
Sufficient Evidence of Wrongful
Contract Letting.

1t is understood that Mayor Bookwalter
will have from City Attorney Joss to-day
an opinion in the Gamewell fire alarm sys-
tenn matter, advising that the city shall
not incur a suit for the Gamewell COM
pany's claim of $4,000. The contract for
the alarm system was let during the last
Taggart administration and several months
ago Mayor Bookwalter asked the city at
torney to make an investigation of il.
Mr.. Joss, according TO report. advises the
mayor that, while the matter of letting the
contract was irregular, the papers accom-
panying 1t being peculiarly defective. and it
is well known that other cities have pur-
chased duplicates of the Indianapolis sys-
tenn at about one-third of the price paid by
this city, he is not satisfied that the city
has sufficient evidence OF wrongdong TO
justify risking the cost of litigation by re-
fusing the pay the Gamewell company
claim.

Shott and Mott.

The story OF these gentlemen and their
duel--a famous one formeriy-is revived
and the tale is thus repeated:
A duel was lately fought in Texas by
Alexander Shott and John s. Mott. Mott
was shot and Shott was not. In this case
1t Is better to be Shott than Mott. There
was a rumor that Mott was not shot, bu,
Shott avows that he was not, which proves
either that the shot Shott shot at Mott
was not shot, or that Mott was shot, not
outstanding.
1t may be made to appear on trial that
the shot Sbott shot shot Mott, or, as acct
dents with firearms are frequent, 1t may
be possible that the shot Shott shot shot
Shott himself, when the whole affair
would resolve itself into its original G -
ment, and Shott would be shot and Nott
would be not.
We think, however, that the shot Shots
shot shot, not, Sbott, but Mott. Anywa'
II is hard to tell who was shot.-Yoath 8
