new TERMINAL STATION
MAYOR BOOKwALTER WAITING FOR
INTERURBAN PROPOSAL.
Hugh j. MCGOWAN and George F. Me-
CuIIOch Ont of Town-EIimina-
ton of the Car Tax.

Mayor Bookwalter expects to have the
construction of an interurban terminal sta
ton and a loop terminal track system be-
fore the Board of Public Works the first of
next week. He had hoped TO bring this
phase Of the interurban question before the
board this week. but the absence of Hugh
J. MCGOWAN in Missouri and George Nc
Culloch in the East prevented.
When the interurban proposal is made it
will not differ much from that offered by
Mr.. MCGOWAN four weeks ago. l. will be
formal however. and certain streets that
desirable for the terminal system which
the board is exactng will i'm all probability
be designated. Plans for the terminal have
not yet been made. but i'm a general way it
is understood a building of proportions suf-
ficient to accommodate the terminal Offices
of the several companies participating in
its benefits will be erected Several sites
have been considered for this building, but
none has so far been chosen
If the proposal is satisfactory to the
Board Of Public Works there is little doubt
that the car tax provided in the standard
franchise which the board has adopted will
be eliminated and the companies will be
free from any special tax. This is their re-
quest. Should the tax be eliminated new
franchises will in all probability have to be
accepted by those companies already haV-
ing franchises. The shippers committee
says it will, in such cases. make an at
tempt to have a more definite provision in
serted regulating freight traffic.

A CHINESE HONEYMOON
SUCH WILL BE THE PORTION OF
MISS MINNIE DOWNS.
An American Girl and an Orphan.
She Marries Moy Sam. n Prosper
Gus Chinaman, of This City.

Moy Sam, a Chinaman who recently came
here from Chicago, and Miss Minnie Downs,
until recently a resident of Chicago, were
married by Justice Sheppard at his office
yesterday afternoon. Moy Sam is one of the
brightest and most prosperous Cinnamon
in the city. He is proprietor of Chinese
restaurant on West Court street, between
Illinois street and Capitol avenue. He and
his American bride will reside in this city
and i'm a few weeks they will be joined by
George Horne another Chicago Chinaman
who has an American wife and family, and
all will live together.
The courtship of Moy Sam and Miss
Downs was romantic. Miss Downs was
born in Liberty, ILL.,, twenty-three years
ago. Both Of her parents died and she was
left an orphan. She met AIoy in the First
Congregational Church of Chicago. She be-
came i'll and says Moy did so much for her
that when he asked her 10 become his
bride she accepted She said il was doubtful
if any white person would have done as
much for her as the Chnaman did. Moy
came to indianapolis TO work for his cousin,
Moy Sing, a Chinese tea and chinaware
merchant on North Delaware street. then
opened a restaurant on Indiana avenue and
moved TO Court street He conducted a
restaurant in Chicago and il is said
amassed considerable wealth Miss Downs
came to Indianapolis last February and
has been living at 424 West Washington
street. which will be their home until
George Horne and his family arrive ana
they take large house. The girl is rather
good looking. Her husband is small and
is twenty-nine years old.
There was some difficulty in obtaining the
license. because il was not known at first
whether the statutes OF Indiana prohibited
Chinaman marrying an American. At
torneys were consulted and il was found
that the law did not prohibit such mar
riages The license was issued late yester-
day afternoon and Moy and his bride went
across the street from the clerks Office
and were at once married by Justice Shep-
pard.
An immense crowd congregated about the
office of the justice TO witness the cere-
mony. To get away from the curious folk
Mrs. AIOy walked north on Delaware street
alone going TO the store of Moy Sing Then
Moy Sam followed and in this way the
crowd was broken up. AT the store of
Moy Sing the Chinese were hilarious and
all smiles Bottles or Chinese wine were
opened and the contents was slipped TO the
health of the bride and groom. The most
devoted respect and courtesy were shown TO
Mrs. Moy and all the Chinese seemed proud
that member OF their race had captured
an American bride. Last night the Chinese
almost stopped work and sat about drink
ing wine and smoking cigarettes

THE planters have plenty of money and
they spend it. Poker is the favorite game

against gambling in Louisiana do not cover
this game. Crap shooting, however, is not
allowed. That is largely a colored mans
game and il seems that the men who made

HOTEL LOBBY GLEANINGS
DIR. }. a. NORTON. OF TIFFIN. o.. IN
TOWN on BUSINESS.
II Costs the Lake shore Less TO Earn
Dollar than Any Road i'm the
WorId-HoteI Visitors.

cit costs the Lake Shore Railroad less
TO earn a dollar than any other railroad
IN the world" declared DR.. J. A. Norton,
Of Tifhn. o., who was at the Grand Hotel
yesterday. DR.. Norton is a member of
Congress from the Seventh Ohio district.
This is commonly known the ''old
Charley Foster district" DR.. Norton oc-
cupies rather unique position in the pol
itics of his district. He is a Democrat, but
had always been Republican. In fact, il
is considered a Republican district yet,
but the people keep on electtng Norton.
The first time he made the race for Con-
gress he was elected by majority Of about
5000. DR.. Norton practiced medicine for
years in his locality.
For some years he has been in the en-
ploy OF the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad in
the capacity of tax officer. He has ar
ranged to appear before the Indiana tax
board in the interests OF his road on July
%. 1t was in connection with this matter
that he made the assertion quoted TO him
above. He contends that the level coun-
try through which the Lake Shore passes
causes less expense in operating the line
than it costs the ordinary railway company
that has a line running through h1lly coun-
try. So far as the Il. & O. is concerned.
DIR. Norton says it costs that lire S. cents
10 earn 81. While making no special OBJ
lection to the assessment that Is levied
against his road in Indiana, he thinks that
the tax board should take into considera-
ton how much IL costs a road to earn a
dollar in fixing its basis for assessment
