Theatre goers are praising the Tuesday night performance at the Ellis theatre.

At Monticello grave fear is being felt that the dam erected by the Tippecanoe Water and Power Co.# which supplies the motive power for the new lighting system there, may he carried out by the big gorge of ice in the river.

Militia Defeated College in Best Basketball Game of the Season.

\The lively quintette; representing Company M defeated St. Joseph’s college basketball five at the armory Tuesday night iiPwhat was one of the best played and most exciting games/ ever seen in this city. The teams were evenly matched and it w»s anybody’s game until the timer’s whistle was blown at the end of the second half. The result was Company M 42; St. Joe 37. So evenly was the local five matched that the credit of the large score and victory is shared equally by all and there was no effort at individual or star playing but some very, .nice team work was indulged in. Kirk, at center, played a fine game and made ten field goals. Kepner, at forward, also played well and made six field goals, three of them being difficult one hand passes. Wartena played his first game at forward and was not very accurate in his throwing but excelled in getting possession of the ball and in assisting Kirk by passing him the ball. Gangloff and Duvall jnayed well at guard, the former giving an especially fine exhibition of preventing passes by his opponent and of getting all over his end of the court and being right in the proper place to receive the ball. Duvall put up the best game of his basketball career and was particularly strong in long and accurate passes. The first half of the contest closed with the score 22 to. 12 in favor of Company M and the best St. Joe could do liy their half was to recover 5 of this lead, leaving the soldiers 5 ahead at the finish. Summary: Time of halves, 20 minutes; ref--eree and umpire, King and Reed; scorekeeper, Ross Dean; timekeeper, Dr. H. J. Laws; field goals, Kirk 10, Kepner 6, Wartena 3; Kamp 7, Lill 2, Nageleisen 2, Carmody 2; foul goals, Kirk 4, Kamp 10; 1 point awarded St. Joe.
