most brilliant society affairs Of Man
chester's social year and the class of
1904 are no doubt looking forward
with keen anticipations to their for
NAL presentation into the Alumni
circle.
The class of 1904 is an unusually
bright one, and it comes, therefore,
as special honor that two girls
should stand at its head. Miss
Mary Collard has taken first honors
for superior class work and Miss
Clara Haeberle, second honors.
There are fourteen members in the
class roll, as follows;
Howard Smith, President.
Lafayette Matthews ,Jr., Secretary.

QUESTION At issue
Does the State Board Or
County Board Fix Valu-
alton of Banks?
INTERESTING PROBLEM
At Indianapolis Certain Banks Main
tain That State Board Is the
Only Authorized BODY.
County Attorney Holds Different
Views and Understanding Of the
Matter Is Sought.

Indianapolis, June 30.-Qucstion has
arisen in the county board of review
as to the right Oh that body to fix the
valuation of banks. Officers of some
of the banks say that they regard the
state board of tax commissioners the
only proper body to pass on the yalua-
tons of banks, for the reason that the
assessments are made on the stock
holders individually, and not on the
banks as corporations. Some of the
members of the board of review also
take this position. County Attorney
Martin Hugg has given an opinion
that the county board of review can
properly fix the valuations of banks.
Bank officers were summoned to ap-
pear and it is probable that an under
standing will be reached without con.
test.
Officers of the various trust compa
MES Of the city were before the board
supplying information ir making up
the valuations.

RICHMOND SPORTS
Must Keep Away From Uncle Jimmy
Horrigan's Bargain.

According to a report in this
mornings New Paris Mirror James
Horrigan is considerably out of pa
tience with the alleged sports mostly
from Richmond, who are making his
barn between here and Westville a
midnight resort for prize fights and
boxing contests. The house on the
premises was burned some time ago,
and there is no one near at night to
interfere with these meetings, thus
making it a favoritte place Of resort
for the purpose. He says that no less
than threee of these affairs have oc-
Cured there within a month. The
trespassers leave the gates open and
let the stock out and otherwise mis-
treat the property and Uncle Jimmy
is getting very tired of it and is very

THE CAMPAIGN AND ITS MAN
AGEMENT

Candidates this year will signify
much more than platforms. Condi-
tions were such that the Republican
platform could not contain any in
novations or set forth any bold pro-
posals looking toward changes of
policy or important new legislation.
So far as the party in power is con-
cerned. it can do little else but pre-
sent the Mckinley Roosevelt admins
trations to the country and ask for
vote of confidence and a renewed
! lease of power. No political STRAIT
egy or finesse, such as the old fash
Toned campaign managers delighted
in, can be Of much use for the Re-
publicans this year. All they can do
| is to present the Roosevelt admins
tration on its merits, believing in it
themselves and asking the country to
exercise the same faith. 1t is for this
reason that Mr.. Cortelyou has almost
ideal qualifications for the manage
ment of this years campaign. He is
firm believer in the administration
and its methods, he is widely acquaint-
ed with public men, he is a good
organizer-as has been shown in his
long official experience-he has cool
head and great executive talent, he is
not welded to obsolete tradition, and
he will make no campaign pledges or
promises that it would afterward hui
initiate the President to be obliged to
redeem.-From "The Progress of the
World' in the American Monthly
Review of Reviews for July.

Between Richmond functions Limited

The speed inside the corporation
limits, and between the functions on
either side of this city, has been re-
duced by recent order to twelve
miles an hour. This is the result Of
various complications which have
arisen On account of the extra fast
speed which the trains make inside
these boundaries. The limit near the
station has been reduced to eight
miles and this rule is being rigidly
enforced.

ALL EUROPE
WAS AMAZED
Modern Methods of the Barnum &
Bailey Show.

1t is a certain hing that no other
American enterprise ever attracted
the attention Of foreign countries that
has been earned during the past five
years by the Barnum & Bailey Great
est Show on earh in Europe. Notwih-
standing the fact that this was its
fifth visit to foreign lands, never be-.
fore had it been presented upon SO
stupendous a scale. In those coun-
tries the people were accustomed to
seeing their largest circus exhibitions
in small tent, where the performan-
ces were given in only one ring: If
they wanted to see a collection Of
beasts they didn not see it at the
show. but had to 90 to their geological
gardens. Naturally, geological gar
dens are to be found in only the larg-
est cities. That which amazed them
quite as much as the show itself was
the manner in which it was handled.
Seeing this vast amount of material
handled so rapidly and expeditiously
it caused them to study the perfec-
ton of organization which made this
possible. Even the militav authorit-
ies-and these included some of the
crowned heads personally-were
greatly interested and paid contin-
uous personal visits to the show in
order to learn its methods of move
ment, so that they might be applied
to the transportation Of their armies
and munitions of war.
The triumph of the show in Europe
was simply overwhelming. No such
record had ever been made before by
any sort of exhibition. The same ST.
perb establishment has been brought
back to this country entire, but the
illimitable enterprise and still unsat
isfed pride Of Mr.. Bailey did not re-
gard it is sufficient for the American
people. AS a result, he has had
constructed and has added to the
show for its homecoming, after its
last visit and longest stay abroad Of
the several that the show has made,
enough new material to equip half
dozen ordinary shows and to actually
double his own greatest show on
earth in size. It is difficult to give
the simple facts and figures concern
ing the show without being suspected
of extravaganza, and for that reason
and the further reason that there is
not space at command no attempt to
enumerate the enormous list Of fea-
lures entirely new to this country will
be made at this time. is enough
to know that this community will be
given an opportunity Of seeing not
only the same stupendous aggregation
which fairly staggered Europe, but
added to it new ard elaborate equip
ments in both material and of star
champion performers, sufficient to ex-
actly double it in size.
This superlatively great exhibition
will be here on next Tuesday, July
8 and the new parade be given in the
morning.
