Flanegtn session. Business of M. of B. and E. Bebee, a local, HEARTILY ENDORSES The Idea of Naming Schools for Prominent American Hen and Women.

Will Inculcate a Feeling Veneration ana Patriotism la the Minds War School Children. Editors In Saturday's issue you speak of the agitation in some parts of the country in favor of chaog'ing the names of wsird. schools from numbers and streets to names of American patriots. I tun heartily In favor of it. It is especially desirable lid Logansport, as I shall endeavor- to show.

When the large school building at Thirteenth and Broadway was completed in 1875, it was decided to call it the central school building, as it ontained the high school whose mem- came from all parts of the city. erection of the new bigb school building makes it no longer the central building. So far as nomoer pupils or location is concerned it no more entitled to that name tban the Westside building. Visitors nqulring for the central school are requently directed to the high chool. Then in regard to the Wesitside.

The eight room building on Bates treet was known as the chool, as the buildings on the North side and Southeide are known as the Northside and Southsldenchools. The Westside has grown rapidly, and we now have school in four separate buildings in that district, The folly of naming one of them the Westside school is now apparent. In time ither buildings may be built on the Nortfcjside and Southsidc, and the same incongruity will occur there. A school ought to have a name that for something. Children will more pride in their school.

Co name a school after the street it situated on, puts it on the level of shop. We have the Sixteenth street school and one square away the Fif and James Mack, a tramp, were given ten days in the county jail this morning for Indulging in a plain drunk. The engagement of a prominent newspaper man. of the city and tne daughter of a prominent farmer is known to a few friends of the couple. C.

At the same hour, in the room below, another address will be delivered by a lady to the women. Ed Anderson, of east Broadway, given a pleasant surprise Safcur- evening by bis relatives and friends.

The Bflalr was occasioned by bis sixtieth, birthday anniversary. A splendid supper was served. Mr. and Mrs.W. H.

Anderson, of Marlon, were among the guests. Miss Gertrude Holland, of Pleasant Htll, was very pleasantly surprised Saturday afternoon by a number of her young friends calling on her on the event of her 14th birthday. The afternoon was spent In juvanlle amusements, after which an elaborate luncheon was served. Postmaster Hanawalt has been no. titled that all letter carriers must re new their official bonds with some surety company by the first of April, By this It appears that the govern- meat is giving tne surety companies 4 monopoly on the bond business nearly of the local carriers have personal bonds.

The town of Kewanna Is all torn up over the disappearance, Wednes day, of a Miss Cummlngs, daughter of the Unlversallst minister of that place. The girl had given birth to a child, and successfully resisted effort employed by her father to ob tain from her the name of her be trayor. She took her babe with her Al the Eastend plumber was stopped one night about two weeks ago at the corner of Market and Fourteenth street, not by robbers, but by two men who were evidently waylaying some fellow to give hlua a thumping. Finding that they had made a mistake the men excused themselves, and permitted Mr. Merritt to move on.

There Is a boat of pretty girls, and the production Is given under the personal dl" faction of tbe firm, which stands at ttos Head of comedy producers. teenth street butcher ieachers and pupils at street school would much prefer the name of the Grant school or the fackson school. For my part, I jhould like to see the scbools rechrle- tened. I suggest that the school board give tbe question consideration and tbat the people of the city interested in it urge the change.

DID NOT WANT HIM. A Member of the Republican Central Committee Says Dr. Powell Was Baled Oat. A member of tine Republican ceo- ral committee said to a Pharos re- jorter that Dr. Powell was diliber- itely defeated for chairman of the new committee.

'We had it all arranged, before he committee met, to defeat Powell." heaaid. "The young men of tbe jar-ty want new blood," he Mutinied. "We had thirty-nine votes for Moss. He was put in lominatlon wbeu nominations were ailed for, and before the otber, fel- ows knew what we were a motion was made that the nomina- lou of candidates beclosed. A good many voted 'No' on this motion, but we carried it and then moved tbat doss be elected by acclamation.

This motion we carried, too." "Were there any other we Inquired. "Yes Dan Tomlinson wanted It ind Ben Campbell was willin 1 but ihey more satisfactory to ibe young men on the committee Dr. WeUl show chose ild stagers a trick." It appears from secrets now teak- ng out that the Republicans wure not at all-pleased wltb Powell's mun- agementof the last campaign. He was intrusted with a pile of. money, claim, and tbe only place that fwas used with any effect was the Italians at Kenneth, and Powell got but little of the credit for dirty work tbat was doneiacorfaling these poor ignorant people.

Besides is now alleged tbat a good part of jhe money promised these poor people was kept by those who agreed tCK pay them. They were tricked, ana as most of their votes were illegal -they could not kicK. Tbe Pharos learns also from good authority that Powell offered the-gold Democrats a part of the corruption tund and that they scornfully refused it. Since Powell Is out there are all kinds of stories of mismanagement in circulation, and an effort is now being made to defeat him for postmaster on these grounds. SCRAPS OF NEWS.

Old settlers say that the original name at the town of Onward, la Tipton township, was "Plug station;" thatic was burdened with that cognomen by a preacher named Surface, a brother of D.

M. Surface, of this city. It was when tbe first train Jon the Panhandle road passed through there that Rev. Surface, who resided in the: neighborhood, got aboard for the purpose of ascertaining just how far he could'ride for 25 cents. The train was made up of flat the engineer made good It rained bard and Mr.

Surface battled with elements', his only protection being a big plug He was put Marion, and as-the distance back his home was.top far to walk, he decided to get on the next train and ride back. When it arrived he dia- covensd that it was a freight train, just like the one he had just left, and still it conductor did not notify the engineer to so Mr. Surface was Into Logansport. The next that went east took him hack lome. He wanted the railroad com- jany to name the line after him, but iis request was not granted.

However, he was determined to name something, so he called the little village Plug Station. Of late years the people have sidetracked tne name and called the place Oa ward.

This wll make 3,500 tons delivered to the eastern division of the Wabash this seison, or about 10,000 for the entire system. Mail service on tbe Wabash is beyond all former conditions and it baa lately been necessary to order an extra crew on day and night time, as the mail is too heavy for the smaf number of clerks.

The men have re ported for duty and soon it is expect ed that tbe trains going through Logansport will be carrying a double crew of mail clerks.
