French Cruelty to English Words

Paris Correspondence to Pail Mall Ga
 zette.
 Fearful and wonderful are the uses to which some of our English words are put, uses for which they were never meant The most conspicuous at the moment Is the word skating. In a Parisian's non-n a skating is a rink, and he talks of one skating, two skating and even Third with unblushing ineptness. Then there is the word smoking. This in Paris has nothing to do with either tobacco or opium. It merely means a mans dinner jacket There is pastry cook who makes buns on what he believes to be an English model. and he will sell you one buns, pro- nounced usually like burrs, for four sous

TINES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL.

indianapolis. Ind. Oct. 1T.-Down in
the First congressional district the
Republicans have been talking about
the man whom they may nominate for
Congress, and among others the name
OF w p. Grow, editor of the Petersburg
Press. has been mentioned. But Crow
takes the position that a congressman
has nothing on newspaper editor. and
he gives his reason for the Belief. His
editorial In the Press is as follows:
THE Press has observed in some of
its exchange that the editor of this
is the first we knew about it. We de-
do anything ft~can for the good of the
party, but it will not sacrifice a first
class editor for bum congressman
The editor OF this per has had about
all the political glory that can come TO
one man. He has been a member Of
either the city or county republican
central committee since he was old
enough to vote, and that should satisfy
the greed of the worst glutton for
glory.
And that is not all. Where is the
country editor so lost to all respect for
| his profession as to consent to the
abandonment of the pencil and paste
| pot for the monotonous life of a mere
congressman? There are hundreds of
| men in this district who have the ability
to give excellent service In congress,
but how many of them would make
even pasable editor? The duty of the
editor Is to the old subscriber, and we
are going to stay with him until the

Hopes of promoters that the Chicago
indianapolis Meridian interurban rail-
way contract granted by the board of
public works would be ratified by the
council last night were side tracked for
the time being. The traction ordinance
was sent to the ordinance committee
and a couple of aldermen have some
axes out for 1t the franchise may take
considerable time in being ratified.
In the employment of ExJudge
cassius, NJ. GreenIee of the law firm of
Call and Greenlee the council gives him
power to withdraw the city's injunction
suit against the Gary & Interurban
railway. Chief Martin and the police
are also ordered not to interfere with
the railway cS-nnany.
Last winter the Gary }&Interurban,
under the terms of It's franchise started
to tear up East Fifth avenue prepara-
tory to building that division. The work
was stopped by police acting under the
mayors orders. Then the company got
a restraining order against the city and
the city got one against the company.
Some weeks ago the council directed
that the city attorney withdraw the city
suit but the mayor did not sign the
ordinance If he does not sign the pres
emit one it is planned to pass 1t over his
head.
| ut is significant fact that there was
but one bidder for the city's $50, 00t
bond issue. The Miller, Adams ano
company of Indianapolis bid $1et
premium and accrued interest and were
lawarded the bonds. These bonds beai
interest at "A per cent are of twenty
| years duration. Proceeds will be USE
for a police and fire station for this
south part Of the city.
