BUTLER IN CHARGE TONIGHT.
The Great Exhibit of Indiana Art Il
Nearing It's Close.


Tonight will be Butler night at the ex-
hibit of Indiana art at Tomlinson Hall, and
many of the students and friends of But
Ter College are expected to attend. The hall
will be decorated with the Butler colors.
blue and white, and William Forsyth will
DE present to give a talk on Indiana Art"
But two more days are left of the greatest
art exhibit that has ever been held in the
State, and the only exhibit of the kind
that will probably ever be held. To-mor-
row evening will mark the close of the re-
Prospective and contemporary exhibit Of
Indiana art. Tomlinson Hall will be used
for other purposes Sunday, and Saturday
will be devoted to the packing and ship
ping of the pictures, which are over 900 in
number and valued at something like $4,000.
The attendance at the exhibit has been
all that could be desired during the past
few days, and if to-day and tomorrow find
as many visitors at the hall as the previous
days have found, the financial success Of
the great undertaking is assured. Artistic
ally the exhibit was universally pronounced
a success from the first moment it was
opened.
Among the visitors yesterday were num-
ber of people from Muncie, including Mr..
and Mrs. A. l.. Johnson, Mr.. and Mrs.
Thomas Morgan and Mr.. and Mrs. F. l..
Rose. Mr.. and Mrs. Overstreet of Mobiles
vile, also spent the day at the hall.
There were many demands on the tea
table yesterday, where the beverage was
served by Mrs. Charles M. Walker Mrs. L.
N. Richie. Miss Stella Adams. Miss Kipp
and Miss Mary Reaume. This evening there
will be a number of assistants in the Jap
anese garden, some of the Butler College
people having consented to act as hostesses.
Ice cream and cake and lemonade will be
sold in the garden tonight.
Although there were no more pictures
sold yesterday, number of people an
nounced themselves as prospective buyers
and probably will make their decisions
known to-day. The exhibit affords fine
opportunity for buying pictures, owing to
the number and the great variety in style
and subject.

AN EMERGENCY is FELT
CITY HEALTH BOARD WILL TO-MOR-
ROW DISCUSS THE SITUATION.
Democratic Councilmen Have Left the
City without Money to Fight Con-
tagious Diseases-City Affairs.

The City Board of Health will meet to-
morrow to discuss the situation with refer
ence to the continuance of the hospital for
Contagious diseases. The Council refused
to appropriate 5000 additional for the
smallpox work, which has exhausted the
contagious disease fund, and the board
must either have money or suspend the
work. The appropriation would have been
passed but for the united opposition of the
Democrats. who tried to make political
capital out of the large expenditures last
month. The items for April included a
number of large ones accumulated during
the two preceding months. The Democrats
were not able to impeach the honesty of
any accounts.
AS matter of fact, the per capita cost
Of smallpox during Mayor Bookwalter's S
administration has been only $50. while
during Mayor Taggart's last term it
was SIG.
City Attorney Joss. who will meet with
the Health Board to-day, will advise the
board that the situation justifies its resort
to the extraordinary power given 1t In
emergencies of epidemic or pestilence and
that it may require the city funds without
action Of the Council The money on hand
Is not more than sufficient to complete this
weeks work, and If the fund Is not repien-
ished the health authorities could only
close the contagious disease hospital and
cease all quarantine and diagnosis work.
The effect of this is to be deplored. as 1t
would undoubtedly give the disease, now
almost extinct, a new footing and endanger
hundreds of lives next year.
While the Health Board may prepare to
exercise its extraordinary power, under
these circumstances, 1t is likely that an
other attempt will be made to secure the
appropriation through the regular cham
nels of the Council 1t is not believed that
even the Democratic minority would per-
init the city to be put in the position that
an epidemic emergency had to be declared.
If second effort should fail the board
will undoubtedly exercise its full power.
