TELEGRAPH the glad uews to Tom Marshall—co-education at Wabash.

THE President's message may be summed up in two words—efficiency and progress.

SENATOR BEVERIDGE'S eloquence evidently persuaded the strenuous one at the white house.

LAFAYETTE, aroused by the efforts of Mr. Kling, has purchased a Y. M. C. A. site for $8,500 aad will erect thereon a $50,000 building.

OTHER counties are employing expert tax ferrets at high prices to find sequestered property to add to the tax duplicate. Montgomery county simply elects a hard working, conscientious assessor like Capt. Billingsley, who does the ferreting himself.

ONE day we publish an interview with Prof. Campbell who tells how impossible it is for Wabash to adopt co-education. The next our college correspondent chronicles the fact that girls will be attending Wabash in a few short months. Verily, these be days of wonderful and rapid change.

CARNEGIE evidently did not go broke when he gave Crawfordsville $25,000 for a library. But seriously, the marvelous generosity and' the wisdom of his giving is one of the most significant facts of the great twentieth century. By the force of his example he is going to make it impossible for men to die rich and respected.

STL DYING THE MESSAGE.

The schools of Indianapolis,. Terre Haute and other cities are studying President Roosevelt's message. Superintendent Kendall, of Indianapolis, in a communication to his teachers says: "The message of President Roosevelt furnishes unusual opportunity for teachers: (a) current history, (b) civics (in the broad sense), (c) English. No one who wishes to be informed relative to the best political thought of the day, as expressed in clear English, should fail to read the message. "I believe we should make use of it. Many of the subjects treated would be of interest to pupils, such ae the ictro ductOry part in which reference is made to the late President McKinley, and which is logically followed by trenchant remarks about anarchy and proposals for its remedy. "The restriction of immigration, the forestry reserve, the new possessions, the isthmian canal, the Monroe doctrine, the navy, the civil service, the

Indians, national expositions, the Smithsonian institution, the postal service, the congressional library, relations with China and the Pan-Ameri-can congress are subjects in which pupils in the eighth grades and high schools may be interested. "The remaining topics—trusts, the tariff, the merchant marine and the consular service, may afford subjects for reading and discussion by high Bchool pupils. I suggest that eighth grade pupils use parts of the message indicated above, as reading exercises, such use would afford a capital test of pupil's power to read. I suggest that high school classes use the message as an exercise in civics and current history, and that all classes make indirect use of it as an example, by the President of the United States, of the use of pure and forcible English. '•Teachers will of course refrain from injudicious and personal comment and discussion upon such controverted questions as the tariff and currency and relations to our new possessions."

Landla On Two Committees. Congressman Landis has been ap pointed seventh on the committee on foreign affairs by Speaker Henderson and ninth on the committee on Paciflo railroads. He was not re-appointed to hie old position on the civil service committee.

Obituary. (Contributed)

Little Bessie, daughter of Mrs. Mary O'Connor, was born Feb. 9th, 1S98 and departed this life Deo. 5ch, 1901, aged two years, nine months and twenty-five days. Death resulted from that almost fatal disease, spinal menengitis, and although all human assistance was given it proved worthless. She was sick three long weeks and suffered untold a?ony without a murmur. Death seemed to hover over her home for several days and on Thursday morning, as the bright sun arose to blees the earth the little spirit took its flight to the God who gave it. Bessie was a lovely child, bright and mature beyond her years and the pet of the household, She was the youngest of fourteen children and she leaves to mourn a devoted mother, seven sisters and six brothers her father having been accidently killed about three years ago by a falling tree. She is gone, but, not without leaving a pleasant memory in the hearts of those whose lives she has brightened by her loving presence. Her dear little form was followed bystricken and bleeding hearts to Mt. Calvary cemetery where she was laid to rest. The family, who have the heartfelt sympathy of the entire neighborhood. in this sad bereavement, desire to thank their friends and neighbors who assisted them in their sad affliction.

Her Hps enclosed, ehe breathed EO sound, But calmly looked on all around. Mortality had passed aw:iy, Aud there a sleeping angel lay.

William Sheets. (Contributed

The sudden death of William Sheets last Friday evening, the 6th instant, came as a shock to his many friends. For the past three years the deceased had made his home with Jas. Hutchinson, south of the city, but for about a week before his death he had been stopping in this city, and for several days it was noticed that his conduct was strange. He complained of a pain in his head and at times seemed irrational. The morning of the day of his death he wandered out to the fair grounds where he had been accustomed to stay while training horses, and Roe Byrd finding him there in a dazad condition took charge of him during the day. Later in the day he was brought to the city and as he seemed In a deep stupor Dr. Dennis was hastily summoned, but before his arrival Mr. Sheets died. The deceased having no relatives ip the city, the body was taken to Undertaker Carver's offioe where an inquest and an autopsy was held by Coroner Dennis as-

by Dr. Swope. The autopsy disclosed that death resulted from a

Bonrkc Cockran Advises American Intervention In ISoiith Africa.

CHICAGO'S BIG PROTEST

Thousands Join In a Measure tp Brinjf the Matter to the President's Attention.

The Chief Speaker Says Roosevelt Has But to Say a Word to Stop War.

Chicago, Dec. 9.—A program of protest against British methods in the South African war was carried out before an immense audience in the Auditorium theater here Sunday night. Following an address by W. Bourke Cockran and earnest speeches by others, resolutions for the appointment of a committee to bring the sen-

timents of the meeting before the president were adopted. Although an admission was charged, the funds being intended to aid the Boers, and especially their women and children, standing room was at a premium and many were unable to gain admittance.

The program opened with the song. "The True Heart," sung by 1? German singing societies of Chicago. Dr. Hiram Thomas, head of the People's church, followed with a prayer for the women and children in South African prison camps. Then followed short addresses by Judge Theodore Brentano and Judge Murray F. Tuley, chairman of the Chicago branch of the American Transvaal League, under the auspices of which the meeting was held.

There were 500 people on the stage when Mr. Cockran, the orator of the evening, arose and bowed in recognition of the tumult of applause which greeted him. He concluded as follows: "The conquest of the Transvaal, while it might be dangerous to the burghers, would be fatal to England. The people who have the greatest interest of all in the defeat of English arms are the people of England. They can be saved from this peril. Civilization can be delivered from this cloud which darkens its horizon if the conscience of the English people be awakened. To do this the most effective means is to show them that the people of this country do not sympathize with the scheme of conquest which the English government has undertaken. "Providence has so ordered events that the president of the United States can compose this bitter quarrel. It is an extraordinary opportunity offered to an extraordinary man. It would not be necessary to draw the sword, to make any threat of armed intervention, or to take an unfriendly attitude. One word spoken to the English ambassador or in the hearing of the English nation, would restore peace, establish justice, secure liberty to these burghers, promote enormously the prosperity of the human race, and bring immeasurable glory to the American nation. Will that word be spoken? Never in history have such momentous results hung on opportunity for himself, his country, and the whole human race."

Van Tets Not Dead.

Amsterdam, Dec. 9.—It is impossible to obtain confirmation of the reported death of Major VanTets, aide to Queen Wilhelmina, who is said to have fought and been wounded in a duel with Prince Henry, the queen's consort.

Dec. 10.—Lord Onslow, parliamentary secretary of the colonial office, announces that the concentration camps in South Africa have now been placed under tho control of the civ^l authorities, that no pains or expense will lie spared to place them in the healthiest possible condition, and that those concentradoes who wish to go to the coast will be freely permitted to do so.

Lord Onslow adds that the larger concentration camps are being broken up into smaller ones of from 2,000 to 3,000 persons each, and that if the government finds matters do not improve in the future they will not hesitate to turn to the experience which has been gained in India in dealing with the plague.
