pleased to call them day I think in October 1863 one of our picket guards came galloping into camp and reported that a band of bush whackers (I thing under a Capt Jones) had just captured and hung a prominent farmer just outside our lines The picket reported that one of the neigh bors had seen the rebel band going to hfs home and knowing this boded his neighbor no good made all possible haste to our lines and gave the alarm a company of our cavalry was on duty near this point They went out on the gallop and arriving at the home in the nick of time caught the bushwhackers red handed in their murderous attack had taken the farmer out put a rope around his neck and pulled him up high and dry and were deliberately wait ing to see him make his iast kick when our cavalry came down on them like a bolt from a clear sky eight or ten of them were killed on the spot some got away in the bushes or on their horses and ten or a dozen when he stood on the death trap and walked as deliberately and

franchises and if the limbs of the trees interfere with their lines they have a right to cut them away Of by this it is not meant that they have a right to mutilate the trees unnecessarily "We have been contending with this condition for years 'On one side of North Capitol avenue for example the trees are very much dwarfed to give way to wires detracting materially from the beauty of the boulevard But here too we are pow erless' It is necessary for the companies to obtain permits from us to trim the trees but this is little more than a for mality since we are practically forced to

building Is to be erected on ground immediately adjoining The latter building will probably be of brick and steel and but one story high being intended as a foundation for additional stories as the need for space increases The Overland Automobile is now building a noiseless gasoline huggy which it claims besides the noiseless feature is the most compact and power ful machine on tiie market It weighs 1600 pounds lias a four cvilnder twenty horse power engine and is sold for $1250 Another feature about which Mr Parry Is most enthusiastic is the steering gear A wheel in the lap contains all

far can you ride in Indianapolis a single street car fare or 4 cents? The question "is simpler here than some other cities in which it has asked recently owing to the fact that ail lines radiate from a common center at Washington and Illinois streets so that a single transfer is all that is necessary in order to go from one part of the city to another By examining the maps of the lines in the office of the engineer of the traction company it develops that the longostride that can be taken by the payment of a single fare is from airview Park to twelve and one half miles The journ con be made by taking an Illinois street car at airview and transferring at Illi nois and Washington streets to a Central ear Two other trips each only about a mile shorter can be mad3 on Indianapolis cars on a single fare These trips are between Irvington and airview and

car wheels The whole drove of proved themselves to be such when the one man who moved over proved that he was not A man and two women tried to board the car at Clair street They walked from the front seat nearly to the back looking for a seat Some of the seats were filled And the had pos session of the rest' The trio walked back toward the front of the car again nd all but the man in the third seat stuck to their places There were few passengers added to me loan as me tination of the exhibition JTe must have heen an He was grimy from that lackluster dust which settles over hair skin and clothing when one works in a machine He carried a little lunch box and sat on the end of the seat in an open car The car was marked Irvington and the time was Wednesday evening at 9:35 When the car stopped at the beginning of the 1000 block a man garbed in the uniform of the Salvation Army stepped up to the seat where he sat He did not" move except to make a slight effort to draw in his knees The Salvation Army man carried a heavy bundle and iU would have been so much easier to sit down on the end of the seat But there was the the hog He kept his place clinging like grim death to the hand rail while the Salvation Army man scrambled and floundered over his knees getting beyond Verily hog has his day as well as the dog The end seat hog has his day every twenty four hours The who has reedingly active during the last has keved the nolice department tension of vigilance and when the die is cast some unfortunate individual who has set off fire alarm boxes to see the horses run or to amuse his friends will be made a Within the last fourteen days seven false fire alarms have been sent in to headquarters from boxes in the very heart of the business section of the city and hundreds of lives have been placed in jeopardy to say nothing of the danger of oilier accidents A single individual is believed by the police to be responsible for the false alarms at dif ferent times in practically the same area and already the police have a line on him gained through chance remarks which have been passed to their ears A certain man is said to have remarked to a friend the other day that if he chose he could show the other excitement in pretty quick A moment after a fire alarm sounded at the fire department headquarters and the equipment thun dered downtown amid the fleeing crowds and the traffic to the box about which the firemen could find no trace of fire The remark dropped by the individual reached the police It was traced back it is thought to its source and the next time a false alarm is sounded the party whose name has been connected with the recent series of false alarms will be looked up quickly by the police and asked to give a good account of himself Within the last six months two persons have been arrested charged with sending in false alarms and they have been dealt with in court according to the provisions of a city ordinance which makes it a serious offense to call out the fire depart ment equipment when there is no reason therefor However frowningly the police may look upon the matter of false alarms strange to say ire Chief Coots does not look at the matter in a serious light In fact he scarcely counts it an evil except in the matter of danger to human beings The dangerous feature of calling out the fire fighting apparatus of the city ex cept in cases of real need is indeed the greatest evil of the false alarm Although Chief secretary Ben Wheat de clares he has almost figured himself blind trying to get at the extra cost to the city of a false fire alarm he reports that fur ther than the burning of a bushel or so of shavings and an armload of old spokes in the fire engine the cost Is nominal If no accident befalls horses or equipment there is little cost except the wear and tear on machinery Iast year it cost the city of Indianapolis $266960 to maintain the fire department including salaries Without salaries it cost $47500 to protect the city from fire In that year there were 1202 responses to Are alarms The cost of each run then was almost $40 If there are a few extra runs a year re sponding to false alarms without acci dent to the apparatus there is simply a reduction in the average cost of a run and little if any extra cost in the aggre gate fur the year Busy Place Busy Hour number of the false to which the firemen have responded re cently several have been set off in the heart of the business district at the busiest hours of the day Down through tiie crowded streets the firemen rode like mad clanging their gongs to' clear the streets of the hurrying throngs im patient at their forced delay Horses were frightened nt the clatter and runa ways were threatened all because some one wanted to see It were unfortunate enough the police and firemen assert that a call to the crowded streets of the downtown district snouia ne sent in at a busv there Is real cause for it such a call is sent In through ingsof a reprobate mind' denlnrablt That aeHdpnta avoided recently has come about by ap parent miraculous circumstances The false alarm lias become the bane of the life It tends to stunt the best that is in him It has become abyword I suppose a false The fireman who harbors that sort of an anticipation is not as good as the man who carries with him images of life and property threatened by ihe flames when he springs to his place on the truck amid the clamor of the gongs and the stamping of impatient' hoofs ortunately they say the faithful horses do not know the difference between a false alarm and a true one and they are AS eager on one run as another The police and fire departments are said to have been collaborating within the last few 'days over the false alarm situation and it is probable that the will either shrink from further risk of detection or he will take his place in a police cell If a man should ne set to watch each fire alarm box in the cltv and should immediately step out and detain each sender of an alarm until the arrival of the firemen and the locating of the fire if there happened to be one there would not be much chance for the false alarm man This is a scheme which has been contemplated by the depart ment Another scheme has been to dis place the glass protected boxes by boxes to be opened only by a key "Did you ever get so good and even with a fellow who tried to beat you that you never got tired of thinking about asked Isidor Wulfson inspector of weights and measures as he leaned up against the desk of Turnkey Stout at po lice

bushwhacker kind of warfare and' decided to make an example of the two officers who were leaders of the band A military court martial was organized It did not take long io fill the jury in such cases two prisoners were brought be fore the court and the prosecutor briefly stated the ease hypothetical questions were asked The man who had been hanged swore positively that the prisoners at the bar
