noon was a scramble for tickets.
Many delegations were accompanied
by five times as many friends as
there are tickets for. A number Of
people remained up practically all
night TO get tickets. There was talk
that the opposition to Parker would
poll five hundred votes. Hearst s
friends are most confident, seconded
by Wallis adherents. Harlan Cleve-
land said Harmen's friends found the
situation hopeless and would not pre-
sent his name. The hall is uncomfort-
ably warm and promises to be more
heated. At -: :02 the convention was
called to order by the prayer by Rev.
joint Cannon, of Grand ave-
nue. Baptist church.
John S. Williams, temporary chair
man, was escorted to the platform by
J. M. Guffen, of Pennsylvania, and
M. Il. Tarpey, Of California, and was
chsered. At 1926 Mr.. Williams be-

AT THE FRIENDS BIBLE INSTI-
TUTE AT EARLHAM
LIST OF SPEAKERS
The Institute is the Eighth One and
Will Eclipse All Others-From
July 26th to August 3rd.

At least one thousand students are
expected to be enrolled during the
sessions of the Friends Bible Insti-
tute, which will be held at Earlham
July Goth to August 3rd. This years
institute will be held under the au-
spices Of three yearly meetings Of the
society - Indiana, Wilmington and
Western, the latter being the largest
of the three. Eight years ago this
fall the first of the Bible Institutes
was held, it being in the nature Of an
experiment and was looked upon as a
doubtful venture. Even the most SAN
guine, however, did not expect the
great success with which it met. Bi-
BILE students from all over the west
were present and at each succeeding
Institute the roster OF names has
been larger and larger and this year 8
will eclipse every previous one, in
numbers and in the work done. The
three yearly meetings have the af-
fair in charge and pay all expenses
Of maintenance. No fees OF any sort
are charged, the lectures are free,
and. although Friends founded the
institute, students of any denomina-
ton are welcomed. The prospect for
the 1904 institute has the following
lecturers and speakers: Ira Langrith,
Smaller Matthews, Graham Taylor,
R. A. Walton, A. j. Brown, r. T.. Kel-
lv, M. S. Kenworthy, Thomas Newlin,
Elbert Russell, r. F.. Pretlow, L. f.
Stout, and Emma Spencer Townsend.
In this list are many of the most
noted and prominent workers of the
Friends meeting throughout the
country, learned professors, ETC., and
their lectures will be we'll worth the
hearing. J..

STREET IMPROVEMENTS

The following annual address of
Mayor Zimmerman was presented to
the council last night:
To the Common Council of the City
of Richmond, Ind:
Gentlemen:-I herewith present my
sixth annual report for the fiscal year
ending April Goth, 1904. You will
see by the Treasurer's and Clerks
report we have a balance in general
fund May 1st, 1904, of $lO,934.97,
and no temporary loans to pay, which
shows the finances of the city in a
much better condition than a year
ago; what temporary loans were
made last year was mostly for the
betterment of the Municipal Electric
Light Plant. The Treasurer report
for the month of May shows we had
on hand about $20,000.00, more than
we had the same date in 1903.
Nothing succeeds like suscess''
is an old saying, and nothing beauti-
ties city more than fixing up its
streets and sidewalks and keeping
them In repair, cement curbs, cutters
and walks are to a street what car
pet is to floor. The city council,
through its engineering department
I has demonstrated to Qua citizens that
cement work done right is all right,
cheaper and better and makes a pret-
tier improvement than any other ma
terial
The council is the official head
through which all improvements are
made. On its aggressivehess all de-
pends as to whether we will make

not. We have the reputation of be-
ing slow town, but we also bear the
distinction of doing things we'll when
we do them at all.

and most cities have many exceptions

engineering department have done

CURTAIN LECTURE
Given by the Mayor at Last Night S
Council Meeting.

During the reading of bills at the
council meeting last night several
bills were presented for inspector
service-inspecting work done by
contractors. Mayor Zimmerman re-
ferred to this in very business-like
way. He said he thought a great por-
tion of this inspection work should be
done by the engineer. He felt it was
his duty to oversee all city work and
cut down some of the expenses in
that department. Several members of
the council voiced the expression Of
the mayor. .....: .,t.

Society of this city is infatuated with
Senior Enrique Robes, Spanish no.
bleman from Madrid, Spain, who is
now living on the finest the city af-
fords at the Hotel Spokane. Senior
R0bles came to this city as a plain,
ordinary bullfghter. He is known as
the champion bullfghter of the world,
having won the title in Spain against
the most famous matadors of that
country.
He made an effort to pull off an
exhibition in this city, but the police
authorities interfered. Then he sent
his manager on the road to make an
other date for hime somewhere. But
now he says he don't care to fight any
more bulls-Spokane is too nice a
place-the ladies too comedy and gra
cious. In other words the senior is
badly in love with the American girls
and he says he wants one for all his
own.
1t apparently is not his fault that
he has gone out of the bullfghting
business. He has literally been sur
rounded, ambushed aud captured by
Spokane society women, who are loud
in their praise of him.
Robles is handsome, he dresses in

1t is said that Senior Robles is of
the royal blood of Spain. He is six
feet tall, broad shouldered and has
delicate light-brown complexion and
is 20 Years old.
He is brother-in-law to Admira
Cervera of the Spanish navy. He first
commenced his bullfghting career when
he was very young lad and used to
run away from home to enter the
tournaments. While he is at outs with
his parents, they still send him regu
lar monthly remittance of considera-
bic proportions and he is generous
entertainer.
Pive years ago he was entered in a
bull tournament which, had he been
allowed to go in and had won, would
have made him the peer of all bull
fighters of the world. His parents
heard of the affair and had him ar
ersked and kept in Jail until after the
fight Robes has never forgiven them
for this, and a year after that he LETT
Spain in a rage, vowing never to re-
turn.
At the famous Silver Grill the Other
night, while being entertained by the
elite of the city, Robes was induced
to sing, accompanied by the Hungarian
orchestra. He has fine voice and
sings well. These present We're de
lighted, and now he never enters the
popular resort that he is not called
upon by the ladies for song. which
he usually gives to their delight.
