Pioneer Institution Passes In
to Hands of the Indiana
Business College.
}. E. FULGHUM RETIRES
FORMER OWNER WILL GIVE HIS
ATTENTION TO HIS FARM IN
TERESTS-HIGH STANDARD TO
BE MAINTAINED.

By a deal, the details of which
were formally announced yesterday.
the Richmond Business College, one
of the pioneer institutions of its kind
in the country, has been absorbed
by the Indiana Business College, of
Indianapolis, and becomes link in
the chain of business colleges con-
Quoted by the indianapolis corpora
ton. The other colleges are located
at Anderson, Muncie, Marion. Logans-
port, Kokomo, Lafayette, Columbus,
and indianapolis.
w. H. Carrier, of Anderson, will
be the superintendent in charge of the
Richmond Business College under its
new management. Charles C. Cring,
general manager of the Indiana col
leges was here yesterday to close up
the transfer of the property. o. E.
Fulghum, who has been principal of
the college for many years, will re-
tire from THE Institution and will de-
vote himself to his farm interests.
He has made an enviable reputation
as a bushes college expert, and it
has been his untiring energy and abil-
ity that have brought the institution
into great prominence.
Manager Cring said to the PalIad-
ium yesterday that the same high
standard that had been reached by
the Richmond Business College under
Mr.. Fulghum's management, would
be maintained. The same corps of
teachers will be retained at the col
lege, and, in fact. the work there
will proceed just as it has for many
years, the only change being the
principal in charge and the transfer
of the property into new hands.
The Richmond Business College
was founded in 1857, being the sec
ond school of its kind in Indiana, and
one of the first in the West When
Mr.. Fulghum and his associates took
charge twenty-five years ago, the in
stitution was placed upon a higher
plane than ever before, and it made
rapid strides toward the top, reaching
its present position.

SMALL AUTOMATIC
NOW BEING TRIED
New Phones Are in Use in
SaIeSroom of the Starr
Piano Company.
PUBLIC MAY TRY THEM
OF GREAT AMOUNT OF WORK
NEW SYSTEM WILL NOT BE
DONE TILL MARCH.

The small test automatic telephone
system of ten phones, which has been
placed in the salesroom of the Starr
Piano company on East Main street,
was completed yesterday at noon, and
all afternoon many citizens of the city
were on hand to give the system a
fair trial. 1T is a bowling success
quoted one man after leaving the
place. One independent line has
been placed between the Starr Piano
Store and Supt. Bailey's office in the
telephone building, and if any person
has occasion to talk to him, they use
the automatic wire with automatic eX-
change.
The whole system, when it is in
stalled in this city, will be controlled
by central energy. When asked last
night as to the comparative cost of
the running expense of the old and
the new systems, Supt. Bailey stated
that the new was much more expen-
sive, but the high degree of service
rendered to the patrons of the cOmpa-
ny was ample pay for the extra ex-
pense.
The new quarters of the Home Tel
ephone Company, will be probably the
most up-to-date and commodious quar-
tiers in this state. The plans for the
building are now under preparation
and the bids from the contractors will
be handed in soon.
Supt. Bailey stated last night that
even though the new system was put
in under the most favorable of condi-
lions, the plant could not be complet-
ed before March /. There havve been
many rumors afloat that the plant
would be in operation by January LIST,
but they are without foundation. The
Home Telephone Company is very de-
sirous that all the people in the city,
and especially the telephone subscrib-
ers, go to the sales room of the Starr
Piano Company and give the automat-
ic test.

Items of Expenditure.
THE REDUCTIONS MADE

YEAR WILL HAVE TO BE RAILS

HOSPITAL FUND.
THE REDUCTIONS MADE

Council in an adjourned meeting
last night, appropriated $1S1,620 for
the use of the various executive de-
partments and other city expenses
for the year 1907. An appropria-
ton of $4,000 was also made for the
Reid Memorial Hospital making a to,
tai of S1S7,62O to be raised.
The revised bill or City Parry's es-
innate of money needed by the city
for the coming year differs from that
published in the Palladium Tuesday
morning in three items. The origin
al appropriation for streets and al
leys, which was $4,000, was cut to
$4,000: that of the public buildings
and grounds which was $1,000 was
cut to 81 $50; that of the Street Com
missioner's account for pay roll
which was listed at $4,000 was de-
minished to $4,000.
The tax levy of s1.10 which was
passed will not render the required
amount of s187,62o. Argument was
hot for awhile as 70 the tax rate
should be S1.10, with the aid of tenn
porary loans will see the year through
or the rate should be raised to $115-
or S1.16. It was to a vote and the
body decided UNANIMOUSLY that the
$1.1O rate should be levied which
with its temporary loans, will not
force too high rate on the people
at one time.
