Ttiti TeiuifMMtifiinH. The Tennesseeans in Meharn | hall last evening gave an entertain- ! ment that contained the melody, harmony and beauty of music without any of the agony. A gicat deal of the ao-called classical music of the day is. to use the words ot one of last night's songs, “all right, but it’s awkward,” to many people. The large audience went last night to hear music and the Tennessee ans possess the soul of it. Their ensemble pronouncintion of the one word “bells” was a matchless and faultless imitation ot the tones of a bell, the vibrations being given with perfection. The bass singer has a vocal or gan that is truly wonderful. There is nothing harsh in it but it lias volume, sweetness and a depth that is marvelous. Some of his low tones have been for years the envy of bassos and he has set a mark that many of them have reached for without success. His character sketch of “Old Hlack Joe” was so pathetic, natural and beautiful that every one felt better for having

beard it.

The other singers were all good. The leading soprano has a voice of ! good compass and delightfully | sweet. The other female voices 1 were good in solos as were those of the gentlemen. In unison, however, was where their best work was and their remarkable blending of tones res mbled the tones of a pipe organ handled by a master hand. There is but one set of jubilee singers and that is the “Original Tennesseeans” as heard here.

H»« Terre Hau'e High Sehool Eleven Warmed the Greencautle Latin. Ferre Haute Express. Four bund red people went to the park yesterday afternoon to see the foot ball gat^e between the Terre Haute high school eleven and the Greencastle athletic association. The two teams were evenly matched as to weight, Terre Haute having little if any advantage. In team work, however, the Greencastle boys were far behind the locals and their crushing defeat was due more to this than anything else. When they did get the pig-skin they were continually fumbling it. There were a few slight accidents, one of which was sufficiently scriou to force Evans from the game. He was succeeded hy Burnett. Referee Haines blew his whistle at 3 o'clock and the teams lined up for the struggle, Franklin kicked off, and Beauchamp reached the ball but fumbled it. Greencastle brought it hack to the twenty five yard line ami there lost it on a down. The locals then began bucking the line and working tinleft end. Slowly they worked to the goal. The last scrimmage re suited in a touch down a* Franklin broke through the center. Cramp ton easily kicked goal. On the sec .nd kick off Franklin got the ball on a fumble and breaking through the center ran sixty yards He was downed but a few feet from the goal which enabled him to break through the center tor a second touch down a moment later. Crampton again kicked goal. On the third line-up there were several hot scrimmages. Beau champ was trying for a run around the end and succeeded on the fourth attempt, making a great spurt around the right. He touched the hall down but in a difficult place and Crampton missed. Time was called for the first half with the score 16 to 0. The Athletic club men were apparently without heart, while the High School team was playing with that dash which always wins. The seeon 1 half started off with Terre Haute hitting the line and making gains with every down. It was but a very few moments until Mason had touched the ball down from around the left end and Crampton was not derelict about putting it over the bar. A long and desperate struggle followed this goal but A. Beauchamp went around the left end for another touchdown. Cramp ton punted out from the corner. Franklin caught the ball and goal was kicked. Time was soon called with the ball in Terre Haute territory and with the score 28 to 0. The Greencastle players and substitutes were Newhouse, Glidewell, Weik, Lane, Blakey, Conklin. Donohue, Cannon, Grooms, Barnaby, Evans, Burnett, Bowen, Higart, Kennett.

Next week is visitors’ week at buildings No. 3 and 4 and the High School. A number visited No. 1 and 2 last week and after seeing the work, discussed it with teachers and superintendent, asking ques tions and giving tfceir views. The conferences were interesting and valuable. It is to he hoped that a large number of the patrons of the schools will visit next week and attend the conferences to be held. The one for the grades below the High School, will he held on Thursday afternoon at 3:30 in a room in No. 3 instead of in Miss McCoy’s room as stated in the invitations sent out. The conference for the High School will be in one of the rooms on Friday afternoon at 3:00.

Comities Not Liable for Bridge Accidents. The supreme court decides that counties are not liable if people are injured bv falling through bridges. The case came from Jasper county. The man was killed in an accident on an approach to a bridge, which approach, it was alleged, was defective. Suit was brought, and a judgment of $6,000 was recovered. The opinion states that there is no provision in the statute which confers a right of action against the county for the negligent acts of the county or its Board of Commissioners in the management ot the county. “No authority,” the court says, “has ever been given the Board of County Commissioners to appropriate the county funds to pay damages in such cases, nor to levy and collect taxes for any such purposes.” The court says the enforcement of the penal statutes and the creation of personal liability, if it does not now exist, for ihjuries sustained by neglect of official duty, would probably be more convincing to the offleeru than taking the pub lie funds to pay such damages.

“Heaven Not a Fog UanK.’’ Evangelist Boyer preached to a packet! house at the Christian church last night on “Heaven and Hell.” “All people believe in heaven—the seini-civilizetl. the barbarian, all nations. God has not so lowly roofed the brain of any but beneath the eaves of thought the birds of fancy nest and sing. Some people don’t believe in hell. It don’t suit their style, hurts their business, isn’t practical. Heaven and hell are not cash down, not mental states. Heaven is no fog bank. A little gin who was told they wouldn't love her up in heaven if she wasn’t good, said, “Maybe 1 won’t have to go there.” Some people think of heaven as a place where he can always wear his summer clothes, have a palm leaf fan and a Sunday school picnic every day. These places are real, “I go to prepare a place for you,” “there remaineth a rest for the people of God,” “the wicked shall be turned into hell.” We start at childhood. The whole life is a journey toward heaven or hell; the spirit goes on at death. There is a half-way house, where the souls of the dead wait till court sets. Then we are all judged. Hell is forever, like the Jordan, running into the dead sea. No outlet has ever been found. Keep hell out of you, and God will keep you out of hell.” Mr. Boyer here recited “The Raven” by Poe, in a most thrilling and dramatic manner and with an interpretation which was new and remarkable in the effect on the au dlence. Mr. Boyer showed that he is holding in reserve powers he has not hitherto displayed. His resources are almost boundless. Sub ject for tonight is, “What to do, and how to do it to be saved.”
