DEN OF TALK LAST NIGHT.

The fleeting to Consider Co-ordinate

Education at Wabash College an Interesting One-

The meeting called for last night by the Business Men's Committee to discuss the question of oo-ordinate education at Wabash College was well attended, a great deal of interest having been stirred up over the question It was discussed in all its different phases, both by citizens of the town and those in authority at the college. Judge Harney was made chairman and Walter Hulet, secretary. There-. ., ir

port of the Business Mens Commit-1maiutained'

tee was read by George W (jrraham, and was as follows: MR. CHAIRMAN, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN:—I suppose I am called on as a member of the executive committee of the business men of our city, by whom

this meeting was called, to state the position of our citizens as this committee understands it as regard to the matter of co-ordinate education in Wabash College.

The members of this committee in the past few days have had occasion to converse with many of our representative citizens on this subject, and

here to-night leavening the loaf.

and consider the proportion of those

families whose residence among us would be so firmly established during those years that they won id never depart from our beautiful little city.

Think of the number of our own daughters who are now compelled to go abroad for higher education. I aui told there are about forty of these. The expense of these forty girls will foot up a total of §20,000 per year that ought to be left in Crawfordsville, and if we consider the number of young ladies we could reasonably expect from our own county, it would certainly exceed the magnificent sum of $50,000 per annum. Now add to this the expense of a student body of 500 at $4.50 per week, and you have a grand total $275,000 that ought to be spent in Crawfordsville each year from this institution.

A gentleman of this city on going to the station Recently discovered a party of eighteen young ladies, and on inquiring the cause was told they were all bound for school at Valparaiso.

Now compare this with the fact that there are to-day more pupils on the third floor of our central school building than there is in all departments of Wabash college, and you have what is and what ought to be. We desire to impress on those in authority in Wabash College that we approach them in a spirit of helpfulness. The welfare of the college certainly concerns this community deeply, and there is nothing for the betterment, its greater success but what will personally appeal to every citizen of Crawfordsville, and voicing the sentiments of the community your committee feels justified in saying nothing can so enthuse new and enlarged life as the admission of women to Wabash College.

Dr. Burroughs made the statement that to bring about what the people were demanding it would cost $100,000 to erect the dormitory, pay the dean's salary and endow chairs of art

L'and

music.

J. Maurice Thompson not havifig carefully looked the ground over was not prepared to state what should or

should not be done. He knew that he was in favor of the equal education of the sexes and favored any plan looking in that direction. 0. M. Gregg, of the/ooard of trustees, co-incided in the opinion of Dr.

Burroughs that it would take at least §100,000 to properly prepare for the reception of young women into the college.

James E. Evans looked at the financial side of the problem. The most of this money would have to be raised right in Crawfordsville, and it would be impossible. He thought the amount was excessive, and thought a dormitory was unnecessary, that it woula be preferable to have the girls in the homes of the town.

James Wright expressed himself in favor of co-ordinate education, and to at the sense of the meeting he offered the following resolution:

WHEREAS,

Wabash College with its

inauy advantages is recognized as one of the leading institutions of learnand as now to men only, it is therefore

WHEREAS,

RESOLVED,

we find a perfect unamity of opinion, I to carry on such institution and we wish at once and for all time P. S. Kennedy proposed the follow-to-set at rest any doubt that may be ing amendment to Mr. Wright's resoin the minds of trustees, faculty or lution, without any whereases friends as to the wish of the citizens

mittee has called this meeting with young ladies who may wish to enter an earnest hope that the meeting it for the purpose of acquiring a

may be the means of That the bonds of

friendship between the govering authorities of our college and our cit izens may be more closely drawn, and a unity of purpose more clearly established. The committee in consid ering the proposition look at it only from the business or selfish standpoint, Not how much benefit would be beBtowed on woman kind (for that is incalculable,) but how much would Crawfordsville be benefitted financially, and consider the benefits to be derived innumerable.

Think of the number of families that could be drawn to our midst for educational advantages for their sons and daughters who now go elsewhere,, ®, ,, ,r

that it be the sense of

this meeting that it would be to the better interest of all friends of said institution to provide a co-ordinate department of said college for young women, and to establish co-orainate

education facilities in connection therewith, at which young women may receive an education similar to that which is now given in said institution, and be it further

That a committee of

seven be selected to canvass and solicit funds among the friends of such proposed college for the purpose of erecting suitable buildings, and pro-' riding an adequate endowment fund

RESOLVED,

of Crawfordsville for the admission of ,this, meeting that the trustees of Wami bash College should, at once, open girls to W abash College. The com-

the doorg

That it is the sense of

£f

that infjtitutiou to all

higher education, and that their admission should be upon the same terms aud conditions that young men are admitted. Wabash College is a public institution in law, and it should be so in fact. Its doors should be open to the public, and not to one sex more than another.

Mr. Kennedy pressed the adoption of his amendment in a vigorous speech saying that art and music was not what the young women wanted, but just what the boys were getting— a solid education. There was plenty of room in the college for 1,000, instead of the 190 they now had. One floor of the Central school building accommodated,more pupils than the college had. Mr. KennedyJwarmed up to his subject and quizzed Dr. admitted finally that if 100 young men would come to the college he could find room /or them. Mr. Kennedy replied that it took no more room for girls than for boys.

,, Burroughs closely. The Dr.

im

Mrs. J. M. Waugh said it was coeducation and not co-ordinate education that the girls wanted. Dr. May, Mrs. McClure aud others made speeches in the same strain. Judge Sellers closed the debate in a speech similar to that of Mr. Kennedy in which he said it was not lack of cash but selfishness which closed the doors against the girls.

At this point George Graham offered an amentment which was accepted by Mr. Kennedy in lieu of his, to the resolution. Mr. Graham's resolution was as follows:

RESOLVED,

That a committee of

seven shall be appointed by the chairman of this meeting to confer the trustees at their June meeting to discover what measures are neces sary to carry into effect the above resolution.

The resolution went through unanimously. The chair appointed the following committee: Peter S. Kennedy,' chairman, James Wright, George Graham, Mrs. Jas. Waugh, A. F. Ramsey, W. P. Herron and Louis Bischof.

The meeting was not only interesting, but at times warm. Whether the end will be reached will be watched with interest. The invitation is extended to Wabash to open her doors to girls next September. It is with her to accept.

Horse Show.

Alamo is preparing to give a grand horse show on June 3. This is in the fine horse section of the state and there is no doubt but the show of flna stock on exhibition on that occasion will bring lovers of fine horses from a long distance.

Wabash Scholarships.

There were four applicants for the Wabash scholarships before the Board of Commissioners. They were awarded to Mell Rogers, of Union township, and O. E. Hall, of Franklin township. v'v

Myers & Charni have just received anew supply of matting from 10c up.

Yesterday a telegram was received at Linden from the Marsden people at Philadelphia which read as follows: "WTe have decided to build the plant at Linden. The plans will be prepared immediately, and work will be gin within thirty days."

Everyone in Linden now saj's: "I told you so," but the credit of sticking close and undaunted by the guns belongs to Col. Bennett. Others faltered aud were inclined to doubt, but he never did. We are glad to see the factory come. It is also announced that a large paper mill will also be erected in connection, and paper made from certain parts of the corn stalks. There are several things manufactured from them not the least of which is paper. It will be a great thing for that section of the country, as every ton of stripped stalks brings the farmer three dollars.

the

Road to Be Gobbled by Standard Oil Octopus. has been known fo? some nine that the Standard Oil Company is quietly securing the stock and bonds of the Clover Leaf, and that when the reorganization of the property takes place the Standard will take control of it. This line runs from Toledo to St. Louis, through Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, and though the road is in the hands of a receiver, it is doing a good business. The new President of the Clover Leaf, Charles Miller, is one of the Vice-Presidents of the Standard Oil Company. The Standard Oil Company owns the Missouri, Kansas & Texas, and it is reported that the

Clover Loaf is to beeome part of that system, with which it could be connected at St. Louis. This arrangement would give a line from Texas to Ohio, and a steamboat line from Tok do to Buffalo. The Standard Oil Company also owns the Evansville Terre Haute.—Indianapolis News.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR.

Tenth Annual Convention the Crawfordsville District at Darlington.

The annual convention of Christian Endeavor for the district composed of the counties of Parke, Vermillion, Fountaiu, Montgomery and Tippecanoe counties was held at Darlington

the town of Linden for the past two W^day, andw^by

years. For that long the people of that thrivinsr village have'had supreme confidence that the Marsden Celulose people meant business and that at last there would be planted on the peice of ground in the angle between the Clover Leaf railroad and the Monon a huge factory which would eat up all the corn stalks in four counties and furnish everybody with with a job. John S. Bennett, even amid the ashes of the burhed stalk ricks, stood up and declared that it would come, he knew it would come: he would wager his old gray head that it would be there. All the fun poked at the proposition never caused the sublime confidence of the old man to waver. His patience is now historic. At last the weary wait is over, and unbounded joy reigns in Linden. True patience has been rewarded and the celulose factory is to be erected.

far the best and most enthusiastic convention ^ver held in the district. There were over one hundred delegates present. All the trains were met by large bands of Endeaverors, and the newly arrived delegates were escorted to the Methodist church where they registered and places of entertainment assigned. The programme was one of exceptional interest, many noted speakers being in attendance. The music was in charge of Prof. W. E. M. Hackleman, of Indiauapolis, who has no peer in the conduct of convention and revival music. The delegates were welcomed to Darlington by O. W.' Griest, and Miss Lucile Dunnington gracefully spoke a welcome to the Endeavors from the Darlington Epworth League.

Wednesday afternoon there was a rally of Junior Endeavorers, addressed bv Mrs. Isabel M. Newlin, of Bloomingdale, who is the district superintendent of junior work, Miss Anna Minnick, of Worthington, being unable to attend her place was filled on the programme by Mrs. Newlin. Mrs. Newlin resigned the superintendency of the district juniors, and Chas. L. Plymate was appointed to fill the place.

Wednesday evening Dr. Brumbaugh delivered an address on "In His Steps" to a large audience.

Thursday's session was filled full of good things. Addresses were made by Rev. R. V. Hunter, of Indianapolis Rev. J. Wr. McDonald, of Logansport, and Rev. Wallace Tharp, of Crawfordsville.

Miss Lota L. Cooper, of Ladoga, was re-elected district secretary. WThile the delegates were waiting jr the train to go home they sang "Blest be the Tie," and as the train pulled out the Darlington Endeavorers sang "God be Writh You Till we Meet Again."

The next convention will be held at Ladoga.
