FIRE DAMAGES BUTLER
WATER TOWER DURING
CLASH OF CLASSMEN

The battered water tower on the
Butler university campus was still
a spearhead Of freshman-so
more battle activities today after
weathering a fire last night which
scorched the boards around the
base.
The fire department was called
out last night to quench the blaze
and reported milling, shouting
bands of students near the tower.
At the university it was said the
fire had no connection with the
freshman-sophomore scrap &C
Invites.
Glass supremacy is decided on
scrap day by the class which
daubs its numerals highest on the
water tower.
The fire department, believing
the blaze incendiary, will make a
further investigation.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

tache5 to the attorney-general's stan
They argued that the law is con-
stitutional: that. constitution al or
not. the plaintiffs we're directing
their case against the wrong people,
since the state officers we're not re-
sponsible for the acts of the ten In
diana beer importers. who are
merely private citizens; and that,
if the Injunction we're to be grant
ed. it would work a far greater
hardship on the state than the law
ever could have worked on the COM
planning brewerieS.
Attorney General Philip Lutz Jr
in a printed statement, read to the
court, asserted that the revenue de-
rived from the present Indiana
liquor law served materially to help
support the state school system and
that the abrupt elimination Of such
a source of funds would impair In
diana's educational system.
Mr.. Miller and Mr.. Donnely
argued that the law is unconstitu-
tional and in direct violation Of the
commerce clause" in the four
tenth amendment in that it re-
stricts interstate commerce. They
charged, too, that it is discrimina-
tory and tends to set up monopoly
In support Of this argument, they
entered into evidence contracts
made by the three plaintiffs with
each of the ten state beer importer;
and charged that uniform fee Of
$500 was charged for the making d
each contract and that, in other
ways, the contracts were essentially
identical.
This, they maintained, worked &
great hardship on their clients
since they had no choice but to dea
with these importers if they hopeC
to sell beer in Indiana. Mr.. Don.
nelly further pointed out that any
importer, if he so desired, could pre-

however is neither gradual nor regular. Instead, large masses of air in the other region be- come supercooled superheated. These masses develop into "surges," "bulges" that meet along irregular line. Because they differ structurally in temperature and moisture, and therefore density the masses do not mix in orderly fashion but tend to preserve their identities This results in battle for supremacy, which forms the ever changing drama that is our weather
 The air from the polar regions is cold dry, heavy, and relatively cloudless. That from the tropical regions is warm, moist relatively light and cloudy. At the line where they meet the advancing tropical air, being warm, moist, and therefore lighter, is forced to ascend and flow northward over the wedge of cold air at the surface This is called the warm front" The air it rises is cooled by expansion and the moisture in it is condensed into clouds from which rain or snow may fall The amount and duration of this precipitation depend several factors including wind direction amount of moisture slope of air wedges, and rapidity of warm air ascent.
 Along the cold front the advancing polar, cold air forms a wedge or thrust under the warm air. and the precipitation is squally, usually, how ever, covering only comparatively small
 Accompanying these precpitations marked and sudden changes in temperature and wind fol- lowed by more or less steady state until the next meeting of conflicting air masses when the drama is reenacted.

ALASKA ON THE UPGRADE.

The annual report of James J. Connors, Collector of Customs, is reasSurng for the trend 1t indicates in the Territorys two major ndustres-the salmon fisheries and mining, and for the increase not only in outbound shipments of the products of these industries but also increase in the inbound com merce The gain 1892 not large but there is encouragement in it just the It is evidence that Alaska reached the bottom of it's slump in 1882 and has started to climb the hill leading to recovery.
 The principal advance made in the salmon canning industry which showed production having
 declared value of s25,620,856, compared to $22- 1451 179 in 1882 This is significant when it is con- sidered that the volume of fish canned in the two years was almost identical In 1892 the pack aggre gated 259,166,163 pounds and last year, 84166 pounds, increase of 1SOO3 pounds. While this increased value partly due to a larger pack of red salmon, higher prices for all varieties of fish played even larger part This year, packers seem agreed will witness larger increase in values than last year did
 That also holds true for the mining industry, particularly gold gain in value of the gold production recorded last year in spite of a decline in the volume of the yield, due to lack of water in most of the placer mining areas This year it is practically certain that both volume and value wll show material gains under the stimulus of the new gold arice of $35 ounce. Silver, too, has benefited from the Administrations monetary policies ana there is every to expect develop ment in Hyder and other during the year.
 Nineteen thirty three was better than 1892 but it below normal This year will be better than last and ought to put Alaska back almost if not in fact wholly to a normal condition in virtually every industry.

AIR-MASS ANALYSIS AID IN FORECASTING WEATHER.

Air-mass analysis methods for which have been developed largely during the last decade is rapidly assuming important place in forecastng the weather Greater detail in observational material than is ordinarily available is necessary for such forecastng.
 The ar-mass analysis method of forecasting calls for the study of two conflicting of air, usually of widely different origin and conse uuently of different characteristics as to tempera ture and moisture, which come together along what is called line of discontinuty, a polar front or a wind shift.

 No better news could come to Alaska than that heralded yesterday from Washington, gold at $35 an ounce The Government will buy any and all gold at that price.
 ounce 75 per cent the old price
 This the Alaska gold miner will get 75 per cent more for his product in American dollars than he did n former years.
 It also means that Alaska's gold yield-assuming it remains at the number of ounces as the last few years-will have total value of $1750O- GOO instead of S10,000,000.
 It many low grade properties which hitherto could not be touched will be quicked and made profitable Placers, hard rock, ocean sands and all will be assailed as never before. The number Of ounces recovered annually is sure to be stepped up greatly.
 An army of restless and energetic men have been waiting for just such news this. Picks, shovels, gold pans, pokes, drag line scrappers, dredges, hydraulics and other gold mining equipment will be in demand Likewise supplies of all kinds
 Alaska-in common with other gold mining re- gions- stands the verge of new era It is like great glowing coming up over the horizon after a long dark anxious night.
 Alaska is away to a great and prosperous future. Golden days are here-and now is the time for all to catch the spirit, grasp opportunity by the fore lock, and help increase natures gift of gold to man and at the same time share the magnificent bounty.

Unusual interest was being shown in the city concerning the mas querade ball ot be given on the 18th by the Juneau Athletic Club in the Elks Hall and committees had been hard at work for weeks making all arrangements and talk | ing care of the details that tend to make social affairs successful. A list of attractive prizes had been made up and excellent music pro- cured for the event. The weekly dances which had been given by the Athletic Club were becoming increasingly popular and a large crowd was expected.

SOUTHEAST CITIZENS.
Boys CLUB GUESTS
Members Believe Recreational
Opportunity Will Aid in
Child Training.

Members of the Southeast Citizens
Association were guests at an athletic
show staged by the Metropolitan
Police Boys Club Thursday night, at
the club headquarters at No. pre-
cinct. Fifth and E streets southeast.
The entertainment program, ar
ranged by j. p Meshkof, policeman
in charge of the club, and Morris
Fox, the club trainer, and participated
in by boys ranging in age from AZ to
l6, consisted of six boxing bouts, four
wrestling matches and a tumbling
exhibition by q team Of six. The
wrestling matches were refereed by
Fox, and the boxing bouts by Mesh
koff and Joe Lesser, former bantam
weight champion Of the District.
Members Of the Southeast Associa-
tion feel the boys club will prove a
valuable aid in training children.
Ofiicer Meshkoff says there have been
no cases of juvenile delinquency
among boys eligible for the club since
it was formed February %. 1t also
is hoped the club, now having 665
members, will break down the breach
between boys and the police.
The show Thursday night was the
second Of its kind, the first having
been held several weeks ago, when
members Of the Board Of Trade were
guests. It is planned to hold the ex.
hibitions regularly hereafter, probably

DISTRICT COMMITTEE
GETS DAHLGREN PLAN
Association Also Seeks Elimina-
ton of All but Most Necessary
Parking Restrictions.

The House District Committee has
received formal notice of the Dahlgren
Terrace Citizens Associations plan
whereby a new and different organiza-
ton would be formed as a substitute
for the Community Chest.
Under the plan a committee, in
cluding the chairman of the Board
Of Commissioners and the presidents
Of the Chamber of Commerce, the
Board of Trade, the Federation of
Citizens Associations and the presi-
dent of the Merchants and Manu-
facturers' Association would supervise
administration.
The Dahlgen Terrace group also
urged legislation to allow a civilian
engineer to be appointed District
Engineer Commissioner if he has been
bona fide resident for at least five
years.
The association recommended the
following District laws: A measure
similar to the Baums' law in New
York, a stringent vagrancy law, a
law requiring all persons to submit
to finger printing and one prohibiting
sale of machine guns without q Gov
ernment permit
The association urged that the old
hacking law be repealed and that
hacks, taxicabs and buses be re-
quired to do business from regular
places for that purpose. 1t believes
all other parking restrictions. together
with loading and shipping entrance
permits, should be eliminated as far
as possible 80 citizens may again
enjoy the use of public streets MAIN
tanned by their taxes"
This association also urges the
substitution of the Franklin street
northeast viaduct for the Eastern ave-
nue. viaduct replacement in the pro-
gram for the year 1885.
