Greencastle people liare at many times in the past two years seen the advantages and necessities of a live daily paper in this city such as the Bannek Times has been. It has been right up to date on every thing and the management will continue tn keep it there. Our subscription list ought to grow more rapidly, however. Its growth has been slow, but constant, but it has not yet reached the standard reached in many cities not so large as ours. Ten cents per week is a small sum to spend for a newspa per that continually fights for Greencastle’s interests and the in tercsts of Greencastle people. We are making a paper well worth the money, and one that stands well in reputation over the state. We trust that those who are not taking it will do so, and we will eon sider it a special favor from sub ecribers to tell us the news. We want it always. THE N W. CONFERENCE. Special Correspondence to the itutmer Tillies on Matters of Local Interest. Valparaiso, Ind., Sept. 14. The work of electing ministerial delegates to the General Conference eame today. The first ballot showed three members of the Greencastle district in the lead, Dr. Hickman, Dr. Gobin and D. M. Wood. On the second ballot Drs. Hickman and Gobin were elected. On u subsequent ballot Allen Lewis was elected as the third delegate. The only thiug that defeated 1). M. Wood was the fact that three delegates from the Greencastle district would have been too man}’. The members of the Crawfordsville district gave a reception and banquet last night in honor of Rev. 11. M. Middleton, who retires from the otfice of presiding elder of that district. Speeches were made by Rev. Middleton and others, and a grand time is reported. Considerable interest was manifested this morning when the question came up of women acting as lay delegates iu the general conference. When the vote came the conference decided in favor of the women by a vote of 107 to 7. The Bishop announced today that all the appointments were made. They will be read Monday. It is rurooved that Rev. W. W. Beck is the man chosen to follow Rev..Middleton aspresiding Klder of the Crawl'orilsville District.
Fall trade is opening up well in this city, The good crops of our farmers are beginning to tell ia business circles, and the fruit crop is one of the greatest helps. By a little elfort the surplus crop of Putnam can be sent to a profitable market.
In Madison a constitution has been drawn up and signed by the High School Athletic association, one section of which provides that no member shall be allowed to smoke cigarettes. This is a good thing, boys; push it along. It should prevail in every high'school athletic association.
The daily Banner Times is just at this time enjoying a remarkable boom in its subscription list. The summer months made but little difference in our list and the increase at this time is thus all clear gain. The paper will be two years old on October 1(5, and, though a hard pull, we are glad to state we have placed it on its leet. The

Putnam County Man Stabt>a«t. Brazil Tim**n. Ross Finley was seriously stabbed while coming out of church, last evening, by a young desperado named John W. Johnson. Ross Finley is a school teacher at the Zenor school house in Jackson township, and a nephew of Prof. John A. Finley, principal at the Jackson street building in this city, and of Prof. R E. Finley, principal of the Cardonia school. Young Finley lives just across the county line in Putnam county, four miles south of Reelsville in Washington township, nine miles from the Zenor school house where he
teaches.
Finley had returned home after closing school last evening, and after supper had gone to church near his home. During the services in the church a crowd of young toughs Vif that vicinity got into a drunken fight on the outside of the church. During the fight, the leader* of the gang, John W. Johnson, had his jaw broken and was beaten about the face. When services at the church were closed and as Ross Finley was coming out of the door, the gang made a rush and hemmed him in, Johnson drawing a long knife and stabbing Finley in the back on the right side. Johnson made his escape immediately but was followed by three y >ung men, who have not yet been
beard from.
It was supposed that Johnson would go to Reelsville to a doctor’s office to have his jaw dressed. The knife entered Finley’s back between the ribs and penetrated to the deptli of two and a half inches. Dr. Finley, of Harmony, who is al-
was called and says
but not
necessary fatal. No reason is assigned for the slabbing as Finley had no trouble with Johnson. Johnson has the rep utation of being tough and has been in several serious scrapes before. A Cluilleffe! The “Koffee Koolers” of this city are out for blood and want another ball game. They have swiped the SKOwballs of C raw fordsville from the face of the earth and now want action again. They therefore have their eyes turned to Terre Haute. There is a ball club over there composed of colored players who style themselves the “Bloomers.” Well the “K. K’s.” are going after the Bloomers and propose to wbnr them out. They are champing their biis and hereby issue challenge to the Terre Haute people. The Bloomers should address their answer to Henry Miles, the base drum soloist of this city. [The Terre Haute papers will please copy.] The Face of IliiMine**. Dignified advertising must be used for dignified goods. Large space must be had for large busi ness. Flashy, cheap advertising is profitable for flimsy stock and transient business. The advertising is the face of business. No amount of symmetry of form counts for much unless there be a good face attached to it. —Nathaniel Fowler.

year—that is so long as the man aging editor will keep him or as long as he is permitted to remain an inmate of the university. He has
sawed wood, made posts, written the BlG BONANZA
editorials with the shears, set type, cleaned the editorial cuspidor, took eussings, and played the “devil” in general at this office nearly all summer end has had experience which will be of great benefit to him in fulfilling his manifold obligations to the student body. If you stroll to the springs, flunk, get married, or get sick about examination time and are compelled to leave town or if you do anything in the least startling or sensational or anything that will be attractive to these columns send the same to us.

Mr. Frank Roller, the Goliath of the west on the foot ball team, returned Saturdav’. He is in excellent condition and he says he is going to do all in his power to make a record that DePauw will not be ashamed of this year. Mr. Roller’s brother will anive today and will make a valuable addition
to the team.
Fred Cunningham, of Martinsville. is visiting university friends. Mr. Cunningham does not yet know whether he will be in college this
year.
Clyde Herron, president of the Athletic Association, has arrived and is shaping up the affairs of the Association. Mr. Jo Pulse and Mr. Haines of Anderson, are pledged to Beta Theta Phi. Wm. Sandy, our promising football manager, arrived Saturday and is taking preliminary steps in foot ball mutters. From the rate students are coming in we expect fully a thousand
or more.
Let every student buy a yard of yellow ribbon and develop his lungs for this year. We expect to celebrate a longer list of victories in oratory, athletics and debate than ever before. Dan Pyle of Attica, has returned. Messrs. Kenney, Dee and Reeve of the senior class will not be in this year. Gene Igleha’t, ’95, is visiting university friends. Gene will attend the Indiana law school this
winter.
Manager Sandy informs us that college politics and all factional differences will find no place in foot ball this year and that every man who is candidate for a posi'ion on the team will be awarded purely rs he merits. No coacher will be secured for some time and all i money will be used for the purpose of fitting out the team with suits, etc. Manager Sandy will keep in close touch with Arthur Whitcomb at Yale, and considering the number ef old players on the team a coacher will not be needed, at least for a few weeks. The following old players arc back and ready for training: Roller, Davis, LaHiues, Albright, Wegger, Tilden, Hall, Shireman, Gavin, Pulse, Sandv, Sedgewick, Neese and Evens. A regular second eleven will be organized with a manager and captain and several games will be played. The first game of the college eleven will be played here on Monday, Oct, 13 with Kentucky State college. It has been decided that no training table will be established, for all the men on this year’s team are temperate and there is little or no need for one. Baths will be arranged at the athletic park as soon as possible and it is probable, that a physician will he employed to examine every man after each evening's practice. A

Blaiich«' Basye is at the dorm. Frank Life has returned. The DePauw athletic park will not be made on the south campus as was originally intended but will be made on Dr. Seller's place on the Hanna street extension just south of the old grave yard. Dr. Baker closed the contract Saturday for the ground and work will begin immediately.. The park will be 400 x .‘>00 and will be fenced and fitted up with grand stand, bath room and lockers. A bicycle track, foot ball diamond and tennis courts will be laid out and when the park is completed it will be one of the
finest in the state.
W. A. Collins, of Cicero, has retui ued to enter college. Harry Patten, ’94, called on university friends yesterday. We believe that heretofore class and fraternity spirit have been too strong for the best interests of the university. Frequently men have been pushed into office simply to gratify a class or fraternity and the university associations have had to sulier the consequences by losing hundreds of dollars. This year above all we should do all we can to help the university. Let classes stand hand to hand, fraternities and organizations shoulder to shoulder and heart to heart for the best interests of old DePauw. The foot hall team will go out on the field Wednesday in better condition than ever before at this time of the season. Nearly' every piace will he filled by an old player. It is to be hoped that a good man will be elected captain and that he will have complete control of the team on the field. All quibbling between members such as has characterized our later teams should be stopped. If it is we will surely get better re-
sults than heretofore.
