THE COLLEGE OATALOG HE.

What It Will Contain—Vast Improvements' Made atitl Radical Changes the Curriculum,

Tl.'O first catalogue of Wabash College under the administration of President Burroughs will appear next week and promises to indicate in a marked way the advancee which have been made and those contemplated for the next year. In sending out the catalogue Dr. Burroughs will enclose circulars to indicate lo the recipients just •what will most interest them. The studies are arranged under three heads, Philosophy, Language and Literature, pnd Mathematics and Sciences. The ^department of Philosophy has almost been built from the ground tip, as it includes the work of President Burroughsi Dr. B. J. Cunningham and Prof. Charles A. Tuttle. A course has been .prepared that -will make the Junior and Senior years compare favorably with those of the best colleges in the country.

The department of Language and Literature has been greatly strengthened by the addition of Prof. James M. Chapman to occupy the chair of Oratory, while the department of Mathematics and Sciences has been materially broadened by adding the chair of Hygiene and Physical Culture, filled by Prof. E. G. Horton.

Closer relations with the Indiana High Schools are to be arranged for. The alumni are informed that, to theni in great measure is due the advancement already made. The most rigid economy is being observed and the hope is expressed that in view of this others will be liberal and allow the college to expand as she ought. To clergymen in active service it is announced that their sons will be provided with free instruction, not RS a gift but in return for the valuable work they do in inducing the young men to go to college. The general purpose of the college is stated to be to fit young men for the law, ministry, medicine, teaching or journalism.

N

The curriculum of the" college will undergo some very beneficial changes next year which will elevate the standard of the work .as well as give greater range to the student in his selection of studies. The scientific course, heretofore relatively weak, has been placed on a footing with the classical course.

In the preparatory department only those studies will be taught which are essential for a preparation „r the college proper. As in the college proper there will be two courses of study, classical and scientific. These are alike except that in the scientific course German and Physiology take the place of the Greek taught in the classical. Both courses embrace Latin, Mathematics, English and Oratory, Greek and Roman History.

In the Freshman year there will be no elective studies. There will be sixteen recitation hours each week, divided among each of the four studies taught. The classical course will embrace^Greek, Latin, Mathemntice, and English the scientific course, German, Latin, Mathematics and English.

In the Sophomore year both courses will have three hours each week in English. The classical will have five hours of Greek each week for half the year and four hours of Latin each week for the remaining half year. They will have the choiqe of either French or German for all the year, four hours a week.

They must also elect, one of the following studies for the whole year: Mathematics, Chemistry, Botany or Zoology.

The scientifics, in addition to'their English, must elect a science, either Mathematics or Chemistry,1alerl a modern language, either French or German. They maut also elect either Botany or Zoology for the entire year.

In the Junior year, in each course there are eight recitation hours of required studies and eight of elective. Both courses have Physics for the entiie year. The first term both courses have Logic and Introduction to Philosophy, and in the second and third terms, History. The schedule will be so arranged in regard to the electivts as to balance the sciences and the ancient and modern languages. Two electives are required and may bechoBen from the following list: Greek, Latin, English, French, German, Biblical Literature, Astronomy, Botany, Chemistry, Mathematics, Zoology. An elective chosen mus., be followed through the year.

In the Senior year the courses presented are identical with, however, a w^de range for choice in electives. There are only four hours each week of required study. In the first term the required study is Political Economy in the second, Mental Science, three hours each week with the remaining hour devoted to with a lecture on Physiological Psychology in the third term three hours of Moral Science each week with a weekly lecture on the History of Philosophy.

Three electives must be chosen from the following list and pursued through the year: Greek, Latin, French, German, English, Biblical Literature, Political Science and History, Astronomy, Botany, Chemistry, Mathematics, Mineralogy, Physics and Zoology.

TOO DRUNK TO KILL.

Old Dicky Hall Struck By a Big Pour Engine. Saturday afternoon old Dicky Hall,the well known character, who hails from tlie region bordering on Balhinch, started home with his buggy full of goods, his horse Lull of hay, and himself full of: good red liquor. He crossed the Big Four track at Elm street just as the Big Four enginecame along. The hind wheels of the buggy were struck squarely and the whole outfit tumbled in the ditch while the train went on its way rejoicing. A crowd soon collected where old Dicky lay with the pieces of the buggy the frightened horse had not run off with. Dr. Ensminger was summoned but found that the old man was more drunk than injured. You can't kill a fool or a drunken man.

,• .Prophet Kicks and Faot. The Purdue Weather Department, in charge of Professor Huston, has kept a record of the weather for some time past and the cold factB thus shown prove Prophet Hicks to be pretty good on the guess, and to give a fair general forecast of the weather, but to be far from an accurate prognosticator. On the other hand 0. F. R. Wappenhaus, who takes the Indiana weather indications at Indianapolis, is remarkably accurate. The first rt cords under each date given below refer to the predictions of Mr. Hicks, and the second record is the actual state of the weather as taken by Fred McBride, of the station force. April 2-5, 6torm predicted each day when but one storm occurred, the weather otherwise being warm and pleasant 6 8, "pleasant," but the 8th was very windy and rainy 9-10, "local storm, cold to warm," these days were warm, followed by a cool cmy, with only one rain, after night 11-13, "clear," these days were very stormy 14-16, "violent disturbances," the 17th was stormy, the other days fair 18-20, "clear," two of these days were rainy 2*1 22, "local storms," correct 25-30, "clear, then stormy," correct. Hicks predicted a warm, wave and storms May 2 and 3. These were fine, cool days. The frost predicted on the 7th and 8th did uot come here, but a slight frost occurred in northern Indiana. The 7th to 10th were too stormy according to Hicks, but were, expecting the evening of the 8tb, verv beautiful, clear days.—Lafayette

'P- Home from Atlanta. Prof. Charles Beechler is home from Atlanta, Ga., where he occupies the chair of Geology and Zoology in Clark University. He will spend a few days here and then leave for his summer's field work in Geology in southern Indiana. He expects to be retailed at Clark University next year at an increased salary.

Charles has little to say concerning Dr. Hickman's resignation of the Presidency beyond the fact that he resigned. Charles is reticent. The Atlanta Constitution. recites the resignation affair, however, in glowing colors. It opens by declaring that Dr. Hickman did a graat work for the college and released it from its debts, one of which was an item of $700 for meat. The Constitution declares that the resignation was tendered because Mr. Hickman did not care to associate with colored people. He sent his family north aud would not let them stay in Atlanta because they would be obliged to associate with negros if they did Stay. On one occasion two young men, students in the school, called to take Drl Hickman's daughters to some entertainment. The family left for Greencastle shortly after this little occurence.

Mr. Beechler states that Mr. Hickman was very popular with the business men of Atlanta, all of whom liked his hustling way of conducting affaire and prompt payment. When he first took charge of the school he could not borrow a dollar or could hardly do business in Atlanta, so unsavory was the reputation of Clark University. When he came away the business people would run out in the street to favor him, and his patronage was eagerly sought.

Hickmaualia.

Dr. W. H. Hickman, who has resigned the presidency of Clark university, Atlano, Ga., will return to Greencastle during the present week. His children are being educated atDePauw. He has not decided as to the future, but both college and pulpit work are open to him.—Indianapolis Newx.

Dr. W. H. Hickman has received hie carridge from Atlanta, Ga. it was made by the students of Clark university, of which Dr. Hickman is the president. The industrial school attached to the university is where the work was done. —Greencastle. Banner and 'Times.

Appointed Aide-de-Oamp. Col. H. Gifford, of McPherson Post, has been appointed an Aide de-Camp on the staff of the Department Commander for Indiana. Usually the duties are not onerous but this year one duty he has to perform is to see that every Grand Army man in Montgomery county is uniformed for the National Encampment.

Married.

May 11th, at the home of James Stump on the corner of College andGreen streets, Samuel W. Demoret and Miss Nettie Fruits were quietly married. Rev. G. P. Fueon officiated.

VOL 51 ORAWFORDSVILLE INDIANA SATURDAY, MAY 20, 18«3

A GOODIHEALTHY HOWL.1*

The Lafayette Times Rises Up and Roars a Kg RoarThe Lafayette Tunes thus roars on the costs in the Pettit case:

More money out of the Tippecanoe county treasury, on. account of the trial of Rev. Fred Pettit, convicted ia 18'.)0 of poisoning his wife, and now serving a life sentence in the Prison North, at Michigan City!

Two thousand dollars more allowed, last week, to George P. Haywood, of Lafayette, and A. B. Anderson, of Crawfordsville, by Hon. James F. Harney, judge of the Montgomery circuit court, for services rendered in connection with the Pettit case—for briefing the testimony for consideration of the Supreme court, on appeal of the cause, and for expenses incurred in connection with the same. The State's brief was printed at an expense of §275.00. While the last allowance of $2,000 was made by a Montgomery county judge, the taxpayers of Tippecanoe will be compelled to settle the bill.

The Sunday Times ia not a seer and, in consequence, cannot tell when money of the realm will no longer be paid out of the Tijjpecanoe county treasury on account cf the Rev. Fred Pettit affair. It is possible that a new trial will be granted!

Why Judge Harney, last wc»k, should have allowed Attorneys Haywood and Anderson §2,000 for preparing the States's case against Pettit iB beyond the limes" reasoning. When a criminal case goes to the Supreme Court the Attorney General is the official plainly designated by law to have exclusive control of the same, as will be seen by reference to Section 5(559 of the revised statutes of Indiana, which expressly provides, viz:—"The Attorney-General shall prosecute and defend all criminal or State prosecutions that are now or hereafter may be pending in the Supreme court of Indiana." In 24th Indiana, in the case of Stewart vs. State, page 124, the Supreme court declared that the Attorney-General has "exclusive control of criminal prosecutions in the Supreme court."

When the Pettit case went to the Supreme court—on appeal—the State's prosecuting attorneys were done with it, the Attorney-General taking it in charge, as required by law. By what right, then, are the tax papers of Tippecanoe county to be further taxed in this seemingly unending Pettit job?

The Sunday Ti)nes has investigated the coBt of the Pettit trial to Tippecanoe tax-pavers—up to date—and presents such items of expense as it has been able to find. It is not given to ihepublic as a complete summary, for there are many minor charges that cannot be sifted from many pages of indefinite oourt allowances—mainly witness expenses in Tippecanoe county, when Pettit was given a preliminary examination in order that the State's case against Mrs. Elma C. Whitehead might be unearthed. However, the Times has found quite enough to arouse the attention of tnx-payers to the expenditures,

allowances, etc., in the celebrated case— all of which they will pay, viz:— Court-costs Iu Montgomery county —includim?$1,500 allowed to-tlie attorneys l'or the ,'Sty.te $'5,124.30 Wm. C. W ilson, assistant to Prose-

Supreme Court .. 788.50 Win. C. Wilson, assistant to prosecuting attorney 200.00 K. P.OeH«re,Kuinlcr&Gaylord and

T. A. Stuart., attorneys appointed by Tippecanoe circuit couit to conduct del'enseof Pettit-as compromised between the attorneys and the commissioners ol' Tippecanoe county S.OOO.'OO A O. Iteser, stenographer innTlppecanoe circuit court 00.00 George P. Haywood and A. ft. Anderson, State's attorneys, for preparing brief for Supreme Court,... 2,000.00

Total.'....... $14,4»(i-!«4 I will be observed that, so far as known, the trial of Pettit has cost within three dollars and six cents of §14,500! And the end is not yet. It must be remembered, too, that in the Pettit, uffair the tax payers liquidate all costs, expenses and lawyers' fees for both prosecution and defease.

The Pettit case has been in courf since the summer of 1889—aud when it will be out of court is a matter beyond the knowledge of any man.

"An Orphans' Home..

The price paid for the Orphans' Home site was $350 an acre, or $2,800 for the whole. The location is a high, healthful and picturesque one and was selected with an eye to the best interests of the county and the orphans as well. The old site farther west will sell for $3,400 and the Commissioners received $3,500 insurance money upon the destruction of the former home. The conveyance is to be made to-morrow and contractors may rush in their plans as soon as possible. The work of construction will be hurried and the home completed by fall. The new structure will probably be of brick.

The Von Rokey Estate.

The final statement of the estate of Madame Von Rokey, a victim of the Monon disaster, haB been made by the administrator. The report shows that the estate was insolvent. All the dresses, ribbons and ''hokeybos" have been sold, but not enough was netted to pay attorney fees. Accordingly the "heirs" in Vienna will have to whistle for their share of the estate.

MEMORIAL DAY.

Fourth Glass Postmasters,

Since Postmaster General Bissell has announced that appointments to fourth class postollices will not be made except for resignation, death or rank incompetency of the incumbent it is interesting to note the number of Republicans still holding over in this county. In Darlington Isaac Larrick and W. H. Booher are candidates to fill F. W. Campbell's shoes. Mr. Booher has Congressman Brookshire's recommendation if it is worth anything under the new rules. At Brown's Valley Wm. Mahan and Wm. T. Williams want the job, the latter recommended by Brook shire. W. C. Cording is recommended by Brookshire for the postofflce at Wingate, while Messrs. Gilkey and Cadwalladei' are working on their own hook. At Mace James Johnson holds Mr. Brookshire's endorsement and has no opposition. Ohas. McAbee is Mr. Brookshire's idea of the Linden postmaster but Dr. Dingman and Mr. Morford each have an idea that Brookshire is wrong. At Alamo Mr. Ward is backed by our Congressman while D. A. Stonebraker also wants to be postmaster of the same village. By the recent order of the postal authorities the chances of all these gentleman are knocked

for the present at least.

"Hokeybos" for the Police, We don't know whether the approaching undertokers' convention had anything to do with the presence of three human fingers in the alley by Lee's grocery Monday or not. Let us be kind and call it a coincidence. When the sun rose merrily at [stated almanac time to day it smiled to see three bloody ghastly fingers lying in the aforementioned alley. Quite a crowd viewed these interesting relics and some few dozen volunteered sage speculation as to their uresence there. Finally the police took them up and carried them off to the st ray pen where the owner can have them by paying the usual penalty. No satisfactory explanation of this pleasant little incident has been offered as yet. They are evidently the fingers of a well grown man but THK JOURNAL at least hasn't heard of any gentleman who has been shedding his digits along with his winter flannels. Fingers are rather odd things to lose and the person dropping or leaving them in a public alley must have been very careless or else in a great hurry. If no owner can be found the police will confiscate them as hokeybos.

a

Workiue the Green Trustees. An Indianapolis dispatch says that some Indiana township trustees are being made the victims of a swindle on the part of the book agents. Thete agents buy old sets of encyclopedias at $13.50 a set, and sell them to trustees at $50 also Webster's dictionaries of the 1843 edition, which can be bought at eightynine cents a volume. The agents have the binding on the books changed and sell them to the trustees for from $3 to $7 per volume.

Death of Bill Bidley.

Bill Ridley, the well known 'colored character, died May 12, at Bill Robb's place on north Green street. He had been a sufferer from consumption for some time and his death was not unexpected. He will be buried to-morrow. Poor old Bill was never overly bright and for years he had been the butt of practical ]okea and rough pranks. He bore his burden with a laugh, however, and even poor Ridley shall see better days.

THE OOUjaOlL GOT PiilSKY.

Plum Street Knocked Silly-Salaries Out All Around A tram—The .Major's FromiDCiiimauto.

After the preliminary exercise." at tho council meeting Monday night Mr.Campbell announced that tho Board of Public Improvement had elected Mr. Smith as chairman. The Mayor made Mr. Vanarsdall chairman of the Committeo on accounts instead of Reynolds.

A remonstrance against the proposed sidewalk on Lafayette avenue and North streets, signed principally by widows, was referred to the proper committee.

Mr. Reynolds announced that he had traded one of the tire horses which was a little lame for a new horse without giving any boot.

The Treasurer reported a balance on hand for the year ending May 1, 1893, of $25,089.59, as against the balance a year ago of $37,98(1.14. The total expenses of the year were $74,736.88 the total receipts, $99,830.47.

Mr. Smith announced that he had received a new street car ordinance and asked the council to hold a special session Tuesday to settle the question finally between the Cincinnati people and A. F. Ramsey.

Mrs. Shirk, who bought the old fire engine house, sent word that she wanted the bell, as it had been included in the appraisement. But the bell was not on the building when she bought it, so this fine legal distinction was left to the city attorney to decide.

Mr. Yanarsdall moved that the electric light committee purchase $4(5 worth of tools for the use of the engineer at the light plant, as Mr. Jack Conrad, who had been using his own private tools, refused to use them any longer. Carried.

The water works committee reported that troughs had been placed at the corner of North street and Grant avenue, and at the corner of Wabash avenue and Pine etreet.

The special committee on the opening of Chestnut street reported it inadvisable to open Scott street because two houses would have to be moved. Therefore they recommended that Chestnut be opened from Water to Elm as it had been platted and then if necessary iu"e a jog in order to get to Plum. The council received the report but passed no declaratory resolution.

The bond of Fred Brown as superintendent of the electric light plant was accepted. It is for $3,000 and is signed by T. D. Brown and Zack Mahornev.

An ordinance making another cut in salaries all around was passed by the votes of Reynolds, Tomlinson, "Vanarsidall and Mvers. Smith and Campbell voted no. The Mayor's salary is reduced from $720 to $600, the Marshal's from $720 to $600, each councilman is reduced $25 on the year, making the members of the Board of Public Improvements $125 and the rest $100 The City Engineer was reduced from $900 to $800, Chief of Police from $60 to $55 a month, Chief of Fire Department from $60 to $55 a month, trimmer Tom Riley from $55 to $50 a month. This will be a great saving to the city in addition to the reductions already made. A few minutes later Mayor Bandel announced that it was contrary to law for any councilman or city official to furnish supplies for the city and he would sign no more warrants for such purchases.

The Marshal made his annual report showing that for the year ending May 1, 1893, 541 arrests had been made as follows: Intoxication l'rovoke ~."j8 Assault, and battery Gambling 25 Spelling- liquor without license N Keeping KiunblliiK house Profanity (j Trespass 3 Disturbing peace Larceny Cruelty to animals 0 Fast driving Drawing dangerous weapons '. :J Keeping- house of ill fame ...

T. L. Stilwell, through the efforts of the city attorney, got a quit claim to his property from Mrs. Shirk to whom it was accidentally deeded when she bought tho engine house.

The annual report of the etreet commissioner showed that about $5,500 bad been spent on the streets in the past year.

The report of Superintendent Carr, of the electric light plant, for April showed that the expenses were $931.41, and the receipts $612 67. Mr. Carr's terra expir. Thursday, at which time he made his annual report.

Preoepts in fuvor of Henry Clements, for the sewer in THIS JOUKNAL alley, were issued against the Music Hall Association for $156 Mrs. E. A. Binford, $78 Mrs. J. M. Lane, $25 45 J. M. Lane & Co,, $35.45 Julia Gregg, $78 S. H. and O. M. Gregg, $39.

Mr. Vanarsdall remarked that eight suits had been filed by property owners near the proposed opening of Plum street because their assessments were unfair, and for fear that the city would lose and have to pay the costs he moved that the matter be dropped for the present. He was supported by Myers and Campbell and opposed by Reynolds, Smith and Tomlinson. Mayor Bandel cast the deciding vote against the open ing of the street and so the matter ends.

The proposal of the Central Telephone Company to furnish the city a telephone free of charge was not accepted.

mm Last Evomnp*.

Over 600 people attended the union meeting at tho Y.M.C.A. hull Sunday ev ning and enjoyed the interesting programme which was carried out. Tne following was the order of exercises:

Address by Mr. William McCulloeli, of Toronto, Out. Singing.

Iteuedietlou— Dr. Tucker. The visiting gentlemen made instructive addresses which will doubtless prove of benefit to the local association. Mr. McCay's report noted the following interesting facts relative to the workings of the association for the past year:

There have been 360 gymnasium classes with an average of 18 to a class. Aside from the gymnasium classes there were 4,006 visits to the gymnasium, a daily average of 12. Three gymnasium exhibitions wore given by the Juniors.

There were 9,330 baths taken, an average of 30 daily. There are 47 magazines 'and papers on file and 375 books in the library.

Theie were 12,364 visits to the reading room, daily average of 40. A lecture course of six entertainments was given, netting $31. Besides there were several gymnasium exhibitions and six social entertainments.

There were 392 religious services. At the Sunday meetings there was a total attendance of 1,562. Two Bible classes are maintained. There is a boys' meeting each Sunday, with an average attendance of 12.

There were, exclusive of entertainments, 32,265 visits to the buildings, a daily average of 103.

The membership in '91 was 225, in '92 it was 256, at present it is 332.

The treasurer's report showed receipts amounting to $3,199.30, and expenditures amounting' to $3,200. The Association, however, paid off an overdraft of $221 from the vear previous, so the financial condition is botter than it was a year ago.

Sugar in the Soup.

At the recent convention of hotel men in Cincinnati, Mr. Fred Van Orman, of the Coulter House, at Frankfort, Ind., told the following little story at the expense of one of Indiana's veterans: "One of the largest banquets I ever gave was to the Board of Trade and business men at Frankfort. At the banquet Gen. M. 1). Manson, then a candidate for Lieutenant-goaernor of the State was present. One of the dishes served to the guests was marked upon the bill of fare or menu card as "bouillon in cup." When the "bouillon" was placfd in front of General Manson, he, mistaking it for beverage of some kind, asked the waiter to pass him the sugar, and to the astonishment of that colored individual, General Manson took two lumps of crush sugar, and dropped it into his "bouillon." Aa soon as the waiter recovered from his astonishment he slipped up behind General Manson, aud, in a tone which sounded very much like a reproof, remarked, 'General, that, is soup.' 'Well, know it,' remarked the doughty General' 'I always sweeten soup,' and emitting his action to the word he proceeded to take his soup with apparent relish."
