GREAT PYTHIAN JUBILEE
ONE WILL BE HELD IN I~NDIANAPO-
LIS ON JAN. IS, 1904.
1t VIII BE Held in Tomlinson Hall
and a Large Class of New Members
Will BE Initiated.

Arrangements are being made to hold a
Pythian jubilee celebration on Jam. %, 1904,
in this city that will be the largest meet
ing of knights of Pythias ever held in In
diana. The affair will be held in Tomlin-
son Hall and will be a regular lodge meet
ing in many respects with the initiation of a
large class of new members as one of the
features.
Merrill Wilson, of Elkhart, grand chan
cellor OF the Grand Lodge of Indiana; c..
f. S. Neal, of Chicago; Union B.. Hunt, of
Winchester; Harry Wade, of this city,
resentatives of the several subordinate
lodges in Indianapolis and Marion county,
held a conference last night in the K. of
p. building at Pennsylvania street and
Massachusetts avenue, at which the prelim-
mary steps for the jubilee were taken. A
committee consisting of Messrs. Wilson,
Neal, Hunt and Wade was named to meet
with representatives of the subordinate
lodges Nov. 16 and complete the arrange
ments.
Similar jubilees have been held in other
States and have proved remarkably success
full. The idea was first taken I'D by the
Illinois Grand Lodge about a year ago and
a jubilee was held in the auditorium at Chi
cago at which 5000 knights were present.
/ held in the world. On the 18th of this month
a similar celebration will be held in Kan
SaS City, the feature of which will be the

TAGGART GUARDS PLUTO
CELEBRATED TRIAL WILL BEGIN IN
ORANGE COUNTY MONDAY.
Effort VIII BE Made t o Permanently
Restrain B~aden-Lick Company from
Pumping from a Well.

The celebrated litigation on which de-
Ponds the question of whose well shall
yield the famous Pluto water is to be before
the Circuit Court of Orange county again
Monday. This time the case will come up
for trial on its merits and the lawyers are
sharpening their wits and preparing for the
final fight. The plaintiff in this case is the
French Lick Springs Hotel Company, of
which Thomas Taggart is at the head. Mr..
Taggart is suing the Baden-Lick Sulphur
Springs Company, which nestles in the val
ley about half way between French Lick
and West Baden. Mr.. Taggart is fighting
to save his Pluto spring, which has become
celebrated all over the world. He wants
the defendant, the Baden-Lick company. re-
strained from pumping water from a well
sun on its property on the theory that the
well taps a Subterranean stream of water
from which Pluto gets its supply. 1t is the
contention of the plaintiff that If the
Baden-Lick well is allowed to thrive il will
drain the Pluto spring, and Mr.. Taggart
thinks he cannot run his house without the
aid of Pluto.
George Shirts is appearing for the defense
and Mr.. Taggar is represented by John w.
Kern, A. q. Smith and Il. G. Field, the lat
ter being the general solicitor for the Mo-
court issued a temporary injunction against
the defendants, restraining them from
pumping water from this particular well
until the case could be finally decided. Mr..
Shirts's contention Is that his clients own
the land where the we'll is located and they
have a right to drill for and take all the
water under this land they can find. 1t is
ccntended that in the first place there is no
underground stream flowing in a channel in
this locality or that there is any definite
knowledge as to what the situation is under
ground at this particular place. 1t is fur
ther argued by Mr.. Shirts that even though
his clients well does cut off the supply of
Pluto from Mr.. Taggart's spring. the latter
has no right to ask that the Baden-Lick
management be restrained from pumping
Pluto or any other kind of water.

ILLNESS DELAYS ACTION
NEW DIRECTORS FIND 1T DIFFICULT
TO GET TOGETHER.
Major w. j. Richards Confined to His
Bed and Bement Lyman Sick
Meeting This Afternoon.

The new board OF directors Of the Con-
the trustees Tuesday. is having a difficult
time In getting together for organization.
The board was to have met Thursday, but
the illness OF Bement Lyman and the abb
sence of Fred Fahnley necessitated a post
ponement. Yesterday afternoon at 3 O'Clock
was the time set. but 1t was again found
impossible TO secure a full attendance. and
the directors will meet this afternoon at 8
o'clock in the company's offices. provided
the members or the sick list are able to
attend.
The meeting yesterday was postponed
largely on account Of the sudden illness of
Mai. w. j. Richards. Yesterday morning
Maj. Richar IS was seized with a severe
attack OF Indigestion. which confined him
to his bed. Bsment Lyman was also unable
TO attend the meeting. The condition OF
Major Rlcnards does not occasion alarm,
but he was very III yesterday, and the
meeting to-day may nave 10 be postponed
once more.
1t is desired TO have a full representation
of all interests when the directors meet TO
organize, there being five of the nine who
are believed 10 favor the continuance OF
the company as a manufacturer of artificial
gas. and four who are supposed TO oppose
this policy. The belief is that the board
Will decide to continue the company if il
be found possible to arrange a financial
programme which will provide sufficient
funds for the proposed new plant and equip
ment.
The suggestion favored by Major Rich
ards that a bond issue large enough to
provide the necessary funds be offered 10
the public Is expected &c be brought before
the board at its first meeting. Many citi-
zens agree with Major Richards that men
OF means will come forward with subscrip-
uons rather than permit the company to
be dissolved.

CONTRACTS NOT AWARDED.


The State Board of Education will not
award the primer contract as soon as it
expected. At the meeting of the board
yesterday it was decided to reject all four
of the bids opened Thursday and readver-
tise for other bids. After going over the
different propositions the board found that
the firms had not complied with the law
in some instances in subH1itting their bids,
and had fallen particularly short in the
matter of arranging for a bond for the
faithful performance of contract. 1t was
deemed advisable TO reject the bids and
seek new ones. Some time in January the
board will meet again and consider the
new propositions. Since the primers are
not to be used until next fall, there is no
special hurry about letting the contract.
Three more high schools were commits
stoned by the board yesterday. They were
the New Albany, Jeffersonville and Camel
ton schools. The board discussed the plans
for an educational exhibit at the worlds
fair, and heard n report from Superin-
tendent Cotton, of the Department of Edu-
cation, who has the arrangements for the
educational exhibit in hand, and who is
putting forth every effort TO nave the State
creditably represented in this line. The
board made a number OF suggestions re-
garding the exhibit. which Mr.. Cotton will
communicate to the fair hoard.
Part of the day the board spent in con-
sidering teachers examinations. The work
was not concluded, however, and will be
taken up again this morning.

BOTH SIDES OBJECTED
ATTORNEYS COULD NOT AGREE UPON
A SATISFACTORY RECEIVER.
Judge Anderson, Therefore, P~Ostpones
Action I'm the Case of East Chicago
Water Works Company.

Argument for the appointment Of a re-
ceiver for the East Chicago Water Works
Company upon the petition of the city of
East Chicago was heard by Judge Ander-
son, of the Federal Court, yesterday. When
the argument was concluded Judge Ander-
son decided that a receiver should be APP
pointed and asked the attorneys on both
sides, eight in number. to agree upon a suit
able person to be appointed. The attor-
neys for the company began to name sew
eral men in Whiting and East Chicago
whom they thought suitable to operate the
plant, but as each man was named he was
objected to by the other side either because
he was too old or too young, too busy or too
lazy. Every man whom the attorneys for
the city named was treated in the same
way. About eight or ten men were named
on each side and none OF them was salts
factory to both parties and Judge Ander-
son postponed the appointment until Nov.
% in order hat the attorneys might have
time to agree upon a receiver.
The city brought suit against the water
company some time ago asking that it's
mortgage be foreclosed and asking that a
receiver be appointed for the reason that
the company was insolvent.

SOCIALISTS IN DEBATE.
No Place for Capitalists, Yet All In
borers should BE M~iIIionaires.

1.-The capitalists no longer have any place
in the affairs of this country: they have
divorced themselves from the affairs of the
country and are now a class by themselves.
This seemingly startling statement was
made before a small coterie of ardent So
cialists last night by Harry III. Hart. The
occasion was the first meeting of the new
debating society Of the Socialist party. The
gathering was held in a small room on West
Maryland street near the Board of Trade
William Barrett, another speaker, said:
1.-The poor laboring men of this country do
the work which makes the capitalists
wealthy; why are not the labOring men
millionaires?'' The above and similar SEN
timents were freely expressed by those TAX
ing part in the debate.

Tracks Will Be Laid by the Terminal
md Traction

A petition may be presented to the Board
of Public Works Monday, asking for the
widening Of Ohio street, between Delaware
street ana Capitol avenue. A number of
citizens Interested in the Improvement APP
peared before the board yesterday, but the
board postponed taking up the matter for
mally until Monday.
Col. NJ. A. Downing proposed that the
board send a letter to the indianapolis Ter
minal AMI Traction Company, demanding
that the company pay for the widening of
Ohio street. Colonel Downing wanted TO
make this demand of the Street-railway
Company on the ground that the improve
ment via be made largely because the
company will use Ohio street, between
Pennsylvania and Illinois streets. for inter-
urban ~traific. David Wallace. the minority
member. sobjected to this, and the matter
was dropped temporarily.
Specifications of the city engineer for re-
pairs of asphalt and vulcanite streets. on

MAYOR ;IoLTzMAN SAYS THAT
AMOUNT WILL BE NEEDED.
E~nInrgemfnt of Heating Plant and
Equipment of New Wing VIII Re-
ceive Immediate Attention.

Mayor Hoffman says $4,000 will have to
be spent reInodeling and repairing and gen.
orally o~verhauling the City Hospital be-
fore it will be in first-class condition. The
mayor madse this statement yesterday af-
ternoon.
Mayor Huffman does not expect, of
course. to have $4,000. or half that amount.
to spend or. the City Hospital. but he says
1t will be Gne of the chief aims and pur-
poses of hi4 administration to improve the
condition OF the institution.
The maydr announced yesterday that he
will hold az meeting with the members of
the Board yf Health next Tuesday to dis
cuss what recommendations to make to
Council for! this year. with which to begin
the City Hospital, and to decide, if posi-
BILE. how much of an appropriation to ask
Council for. this year. with which to begin
remodeling sand repairing the City Hospital.
The Boart of Health's report concerning
the condition of the City Hospital was not
sent to the mayor yesterday. He expects
10 receive tne report this morning.
NEEDS BIG HEATING PLANT.
One of tie first needs of the City Hospi-
tai, the mdyor says, is enlargement of the
heating plant. The new hospital for in
durable coasumptives is to be heated by
the City Hospital heating plant, and the
mayor says the plant will have to be con-
siderably enlarged to do this. An estimate
of the amount of money it will AXE to re-
model the seating plant has not been made.
This is ona of the things to be considered
by the major and the board at next Tues
days meeting, it is understood. Another
matter which will need immediate atten-
ton, the r.ayor says, is the equipment of
the recently completed addition to the hos
pital, which is occupied partly by the train
ing school.f for nurses, DIR. Reyer says.
1T will pc one OF my chief purposes as
mayor of a~ndianap polls to begin improving
the City hospital" said Mayor Hoffman
yesterday afternoon. The institution is
general reYlodeling and overhauling. How
ever, L dc not know the exact condition
out there. because L have not yet had time
to examine the Boad of Health's report

cent investigation will be sent to me to-
morrow morning, / expect.
II know that to build up the City Hospi-
tai and make il a first-claSs institution is
a larger Undertaking than can be carried
to complexion in two years. l don't think
the institution can be built up to what II
should be with less than $50, OO0. We cam
not get that much money to spend on the
City Hospital In two years. of course, but
L think tie members of Council are dis
posed to look at the matter in the right
light, and will do the right thing. Perhaps
during tho two years of my administration
we will bt able to get as much as IS, 900.
