ELI AND DANCING.

There is, we are almost sure, a lot of significance in the fact that Eli" lis the first name of the clergyman over in New Jersey who has just made a
 great row because the young men and maids in his congregation sought to stir with mild excitment the gray
 Inonotony of suburban life by organiz- ling a dancing class. To bear the name lof "Eli' says much as to the time
 when, and as to the place where, the bearers career began. Some years have passed since parents deliberately Imposed that name upon their infant sons, and for more years still the vill- ages where it could be done have been so few that their characteristics are well known to all who have given any study to this branch of sociology, So lit comes about that anybody whose name is 'Eli'' is practically certain to consider dancing sinful, even though lit be conducted amid the most innocent
 surroundings and with the projections ldeemed sufficient, nowadays, by vast numbers of more than fairly respec- I table people. And this Eli, we notice, |
 to music" It is, of course, or ct least some of it is, if one chooses to look, or l is capable of looking, at the matter in
 just that way, but how unnecessary is
 the choice-how unenviable the ability!
 Some will be of the opinion that this
 well-intentioned Jerseyman has done
 vastly more ifilthe line of suggesting thoughts evil or approximating to evil l in the minds of young Jerseyites by formulating this neat phrase than would all the dancing they could have
 indulged in during many winters. In
 f all probability few if any of them ever
 before gave thought to the fact he mentioned, and therefore for them it
 was not g Saet Now they will re-
 member if every time they dance, and 1-that really will put an element of
 danger in what before was an agree fable form of physical exercise, and ab- lsolutely nothing else. And the name lof 'Eli', much as 1t explains, does not lquite explain why a man this day should say, that dancing is thugging to music" Many Ellis have so far lived down the influences of @ narrow and gloomy youth that they could and would refrain from a characterization lso full of indelicate suggestiveness. The Jersey "Eli," however, is desper- lately sure he is right-so sure that he has risked the very existance of his lchurch on the maintenance of his ban lagainst all who dance. From present lreports the dancing will go on, and the lchurch, if 1t goes on at all, will do il lin two bitterly hostile fragments. It's la pity-a great pity-and so much llworse than useless.-New York Times

Another unusual development to the case
is the fact that at the time of the mar

out in Justice Shepherds court yesterday
afternoon, when Morgan was being tried
on another charge at the instigation of

CITY SAYS TRUST SHOULD
FURNISH ARTIFICIAL GAS
Declares Officials Are Ready to
Grant Franchise to Company
for Purpose.
UNLOOKED-FOR ATTITUDE

The city of Indianapolis, one of the de-
PENDANTS in the case of the Consumers Gas
Trust Company against the Eureka In
vestment Company ct al. yesterday filed
an answer to the original complaint of the
gas company in which every allegation in
the first and second paragraphs is denied.
1t sets out the total assets of the company
to be s96O07S.50. which includes all paid up
stock certificates. cash on hands, main and
service pipes and all other property with
no past due debts not covered by warrants.
At length it gives reasons why the plain
tiff, If 1t can no longer furnish natural gas
to the public and its consumers, should
continue to operate its plant by furnishing
artificial gas through the old pipes and
mains. though at slight increase in rates.
This can easily be DONE the answer insists
because of the fact that the reefs and
alleys are already we'll supplied with gas
mains and pipes which, including other
property, amounts to 100000. 1t is also
asserted that there is sl25.OOo in cash be-
longing to the company besides $500 600
worth of pumping stations and leases out
of the city.
Further the defendant says that the
Board of Public Works, the mayor and the
Common Council stand ready to grant the
franchises to lay and maintain pipes to
furnish artificial gas to the public and it's
consumers and insists the court so
ordering the plaintiff.
This stand of the city, it is believed, is
decidedly unexpected to the friends of the
Consumers Gas Trust Company. 1t has
been known that the city has been prepar-
ing some surprise, but that ii should be
so insstent in its demands to transfer the
plant into artificial gas plant was un-
looked for.
of he Of
the Consumers Gas Trust Company, last
night expressed his surprise at the stand
taken by the city on the question. II know
that the officials of the city have been in
several conferences lately, but that they
should insist on such radical measures is a
surprise. 1t of course will mean that the
fight is on.

viewed.

JAY H, NEFF TO REFORM
KANSAS CITY METHODS
for Positions Under the
Mayor-Elect Must Write Tech
nical Theses.
BRIGHT INDIANA MAN
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, April 15-Mayor-
elect Jay II. Neff has made an announce
ment that is unwelcome news for spoils-
men and political ward bosses. He pro-
poses to appoint men to office who are quail
flied TO fill the positions they seek. He does
not believe that a barber who can scrape
faces well also can scrape streets in a
satisfactory manner. Therefore he has an
nounced that all applicants for superintend-
ent of streets must show some technical
knowledge of the business His choice will
be made from among those who display the
greatest eftciency-on paper, at least. APP
plicants for the job are asked to submit a
thesis of 1000 words on How TO Care for
Streets" They must tell how the work
can be done in the most scientific. econom-
ical and sanitary way. 1t will not be neces-
sary for them to demonstrate how the
scraper should be pushed or how the SHOW
eler should hold his arms when tossing a
pile of cleanings into the wagon, but appli-
cants must know. theoretically. how to
do these things They must also tell how
streets can be best swept without raising a
whirlwind of dust and blowing it into resi-
dences. This is a problem that other cities
have worried over. especially where the
horses attached to sprinklers are permit
ted to trot over the streets at break-neck
speed as III water precious as beer
will be wnen the WORLDS fair is in-fuIi
blast at torrid ST. Louis.
Mr.. Neff has been warmly commended for
his new departure. He is an Indiana man,
graduate of De Pauw University. and
would have attended the recent Phi Kappa
Psi convention in Indianapolis but for the
fact that while ii was in session he was be-
ing elected mayor of Kansas City on the
Republican ticket.
