levy for poor relief was found necessary in
Isl townships. In Gil townships the rate
was less than five cents; in 1s4 townships.
less than ten cents; in thirty-nine townships,
ten cents and more. up TO thirty cents. Polk
township, Monroe county. has the highest
levy in the State-thirty cents. Benton
township. in the same county. has the next
highest-twenty-fve cents. Four townships
made levy of twenty cents-Brownston. in
Jackson county; Northwest in Orange
county; Patoka in Pike county. and Point.
in Posey county.
An illustration Of the varying conditions
In townships making the same levy may be
found in Elkhart county. Elkhart town.
ship, including the town of Goshen, has a
population Of 9l52 according to the census
of 1900 The valuation of the property for
township trustees gave relief 10 the amount
OF Sl,374.23. The rate for poor relief was
ten cents. Washington township, in the
same county, has the same levy. The pop
ulation is LIB, the tax-value, 1881, 40, the
amount of relief $lJ0.0S. MELVILLE township,
in De kalb county, required the same levy
on an assessed valuation of 1886, us; popula-
ton, Gas: relief given in 1902 s124.52.
There still seems to be some misappre-
hension about the law providing that the
county commissioners shall supervise the
work of the township trustees as overseers
OF the poor. Whenever the relief for per-
family has reached the amount of SIS,
it is the duty of the township trustee to
obtain the consent of the county commits
sioners before giving further aid. If il is
deemed for the best interest of the person
will be given to have him transferred to the
county poor asylum. Otherwise. the COM
missioners will authorize the granting of
additional relief"

HORSE SHOW PROGRESS.


The movement toward horse show in
Indianapolis this fall has taken form in the
organization of an association with a capt.
tai of 10000 to promote the enterprise. The
organization is being quietly effected and it
is understood that large part of the stock
has already been subscribed.
Under the present plan the show will be
given as a private enterprise and there
will be no call for a guarantee fund from
the merchants and other business men Of
the city. II the show is successful and
any money is made, part OF the profits will
be given TO the coliseum fund and the re-
mainder divided a dividend on the stock
II there is a loss IL will be borne by the
stockholders.
II has been decided to hold the show
during the week OF Sept. n, the week
following the State fair and preceding the
Louisville horse show. The location at Six
teenth street and Capitol avenue has been
selected and negotiations are pending with
DIR. G. De Garmo Gray, OF Kansas City. TO

enterprise. DR.. Gray has conducted n num-
her OF horse shows under canvas in South
ern cities and has been very successful IN

Fashion Changes.

New York Evening Journal.
l can remember the time and not so very
long ago, either, when to wear jewels in
the daytime was considered the height Of
vulgarity. Now all that is changed, and
any woman who can boast so much as
brooch puts Ii on whenever she has the
inclination. In fact, 1t seems to be rather a
fad, the wearing of jewels. and at luncheon,
or even shopping, any number of women
may be seen in some really gorgeous ones.
1t was on a shopping expedition that Mrs.
Colgate Hoyt lost her string of pearls. and
l saw Mrs. Vanderbilt the other day going
into Fifth-avenue shop and her string
OF pearls was the first thing that caught
the eye. Mrs. Frederick Nelson is never
without her necklace of pearls, and in ad-
d1tion, she nearly always wears some hand
some turquoise ornaments. Mrs. John r.
Drexel has within the last year acquired
a pair of gorgeous pearl earrings, and these
she is never without. and l wonder more
women don't adopt the fashion. Mrs. L. u.
Letter has long been famous for her jewels
and one, a chain set with diamonds and
rubies, Is part of her daily dress.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Aug. 29.-There
will be no harness horse race meeting on
the ''four-cornered' track this year. The
Trotting Association is out for the money
and not fame this time. The stockholders,
who are leading citizens, have not missed
the assessments since they began giving
high-class race meeting twelve years ago,
but they are getting tired of interest
charges on debt that accumulated as reg
ularly as did the world records over the
famous track. Therefore, next week there
will be variety of attractions at the
grounds. with some running races and a
few harness events for those who must
have racing. The running races are to be
of first-class order and with large fields of
starters. The association has made a spe-
cial effort to revive interest In the agricul-
tural department, which was neglected
more or less while attention was conferred
on harness horse racing. There will be a
midway of shows, such as seen at street
fairs. which will take the place of the usual
fall street fair in the city. At night there
will be illuminated grounds and carnival
events. On Wednesday a double wedding
ceremony Will be performed on the track

With four days racing, three events on

"Bir Dahien and Sammy" Strang have
