OFFER BILL TO SETTLE
LEVY OF POWER PLANT

Measure Definitely Would Be Placed
in Perry Township.
Marion county representatives
have joined in a measure to settle
the lengthy controversy over which
Marion county township should
assess the Harding street plant Of
the indianapolis Power and Light
Company
Formerly assessed by Decatur
township, the bill places the plant in
Perry township by defining the
township line as the middle of White
river channel near the plant. Esti-
mates of the assessed valuation of
the Harding street plant range from
$1,500000 to $5,o00000.

BILL IN SENATE
URGES RELIEF
FOR TAXPAYER
Ten-Year Period Allowed to
Make Settlement on
DeIinquenCieS.

A bill favoring delinquent tax
payers, passed Tuesday in the house,
was received in the Indiana SEN
ate today under circumstances
pointing to favorable action.
Terms of the measure allow those
delinquent in taxes levied prior to
1882 a ten-year period in which to
pay, provided the spring installment
for 1888 is paid.
Unpaid installments are to be
charged 4 per cent interest. Sponsors
contend that this law will give re-
lief to property owners now facing
loss of homes and farms and that a
ten-year extension is in harmony
with the new law already signed by
the Governor. This law grants
moratorium on delinquent tax sales
until the second Monday in Feb
ruary, 1884.
Proposal to make applicants for
all kinds of state licenses show
both personal and poll tax receipts
is expected to strike a snag in the
senate. This bill passed the house,
but the senate committee expects
to make an unfavorable report.
Echoes of the brisk fight made
against repeal of the teacher tenure
law indicate an amendment to the
repeating bill by Senator Walter S.
Chambers (Dem., Newcastle), who
announced he would seek to
exempt cities of 10000 or more from
its. effects. If this amendment fails,
Chambers hopes at least to make
the matter of applying the tenure
law optional in the larger cities.
Seeks Boundary Peace
Marion county senators have
joined in bill to settle the long
standing boundary dispute between
Decatur and Perry townships, aris-
ing from location of the Indianap-
oils Power and Light Company's
electric plant, southwest of the city.
Each township wants the right to
levy taxes on the plant, the precise
location of which is hard to de-
termine, because of meanderingS of
the White river. Terms of bill call
for a survey by the county surveyor.
To revise Indiana's method of
voting, through its presidential
electors, for national tickets, Sen
ator Alanson A. Albright Dem.,
CayugO, chairman of the elections
committee, reported favorably to-
day on bill providing for casting
of electoral votes on the first
Wednesday in January following a
general election.
This conforms to the new lame
duck amendment to the federal
Constitution, whereby the President,
in 1886, will take office on Jan. 20
instead of waiting until March 4.

Contract Bridge

four spades, as West held five
hearts,
The declarer can hope further
that West does not hold more than
three clubs. He is not interested III
how many diamonds West holds, as
what he now is planning to do is to
force West to lead diamonds.
His first play should be to see if
the spades break. He leads the ace
and king of spades-on the second
spade Vests jack drops, marking
him out of spades.
However. to make sure that West
is not false-carding. the declarer
leads his third spade and West
makes the natural discard of a small
club.
Now the dummy's ace and queen
of clubs are cashed and the small
club led, which the declarer wins
with the king. On the third club.
West is forced to discard a diamond.
If the declarer had left the lead
in the dummy on the third club
trick and had led a diamond and
taken the finesse, West would have
won with the king of diamonds and
then cashed his three good hearts.
which with the heart trick they al
ready had won, would have defeated
the declarer'S contract.
However, the deelarer made the
usual play of leading his opponents
suit and led the seven of hearts
throwing West in he lead
All that West can now do is to
cash his three good heart tricks, and
he then is forced to lead a dia-
mond into the decla-er's ace queen
which gives the declared the extra
trick needed for game.

South became the declarer at
three no trump contract. The
bidding is very simple. While the
hand contains five quick tricks,
South's hand can not be opened
with a two no trump bid, as he
does not have the strong five-card
suit required for such bid.
However, it is too strong to
open with suit bid of one. There
fore, it is an ideal hand with
which to open one no trump, as
this bid shows partner a very fine
hand.
North then will bid two no
trump and South will go to three
no trump.
The Play
1t is Vests opening lead. When
your strong suit is headed by three
touching honors, open the top honor
in this case, the queen of hearts
East must not play carelessly the
nine spot, but should unlock i'm
mediately by playing the king.
The declarer will refuse to win
the trick, East then will return the
nine of hearts. This play, of course,
marks East with only two hearts and
the declarer can safely win the Sec
ond heart lead.
There would be no harm, however,
in holding up one more round.
Let us assume that the declarer
wins the second heart trick. He now
must stop and take inventory. He
is sure of three club tricks, one dia-
mond, the heart trick and three
spade tricks, or eight in all.
To make his contract, either the
spades must break or the diamond
finesse must work.
If the diamond f1nesse is tried
and fails, the contract is defeated
at once. If the spades do not break,
in all probability East holds the
