DR.. Lebon to conclude it would be
possible to construct huge metallic
mirrors, capable of rejecting Hertizan
rays several miles. They would be
invisible and would ignite distant ex-
plosives like magazines, shells and
even cartridges in soldiers belts.
IL the discovery leads to practical
invention it will be possible to infiict
death from a distance like Wells Mar

A WHITE ELEPHANT
CITY WANTS TO GET RID OF
YEISER PARK NOW.

A meeting of the joint park COM
mittee Of the general council and the
park committee of fiscal court is set
for tonight at the city hall, when it is
expected that steps will be taken to do
something with Yeiser park, the court
house block, which has been an eye
sore and disgrace to the city for sew
eral years past. The city several years
ago leased the ground, agreeing to
MAINTAIN IL for period of years, but
II has never complied with its con-
tract, and the county. backed by the
city's contract to take care of the
park, hi. also declined to do anything
towards beaosifying it or keeping il
in anything like good condition.
The fence was ordered repaired bv
he last fiscal court and the bill
rought to the city for payment, and
ouight IL is hoped that some agree
ment will be reached by which the
city will be relieved of the care of 1t.
The county seems to be determined
that the city keep mp the park and the
city seems equally determined not to
do any more towards keeping it up
than in the past, which amounted
practically TO nothing.

McLallen, of Columbia City. was to-day
elected trustee for the creditors of the Co

among the banks of Indiana. Ohio, Penn
sylvania, West Virginia, Virginia, Michi-
gan and Illinois. The capital stock of the
company was $4,000, of which $4,000 was
paid up.
The Napoleon of this financial enterprise
was A. Vandenende, who halls from Hol-
land. He was formerly connected with the
Mooney tanneries of Columbus, Ind, but
left that company a few years ago to take
charge of the Orinoco Tanning Company,
of the same city, in which he interested
prominent men. Later he organized the
Columbus Saddlery Company and still later
became the manager of the Maxwell
Leather Company. of Chicago. He appears
also to be the hacker of the G. Maxwell
Leather Company. of Titusville, Pa.
He bought the Columbia City plant about
two years ago, and some time last sum-
mer became delinquent on payments on a
large number of notes. which make up the
larger part of the debts of the company.
The trustee has information that much of
this paper was given merely for Exiting"
purposes and that the total from all these
concerns will reach 100000. All are now
In bankruptcy, with only a fraction of as
sets in sight.
