RENSSELAER, INDIANA, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 2«, 1910.

Dr. Honan Pleases Delphi School Pupils and Citizens In Address.

Delphi Herald— Dr. James Honan gave an interesting talk to the high school and the citizens this morning. He first told of the customs of the people; of how the children of Germany will carry out a promise made by their forefathers. He 'described seyeral buildings in Moscow, Russia, and how they were constructed and the material used in them; the treatment of the girl in Constantinople. He also told of his visit to old Delphi in Greece and how they call him the son of Apollo because he told them he was born in Delphi in America. Dr. Honan , has received three diplomas in America and one in the old country in his profession. At the close of Dr.. Honan’s address, his brother, Hon. E. P. Honan spoke. He showed the student the value of an education and said that his brother and himself had to quit school before they were fifteen. Dr. Honan also spoke in German to the German students.

Hickey for Chairman.

A dispatch from Laporte says: “Andrew J.’ Hickey, of this city, will be renominated for district chairman by acclamation by the convention which meets in Hammond. Mr. Hickey’s election as district chairman promises to be followed by a vigorous movement on the .part of his friends to secure for him the nomination of attorney general ' on the republican state ticket. “Mr. Hickey has thus far refused to sanction the movement to make him a candidate on the state ticket. There has been consideration of him in this county as a candidate for judge of the circuit court.”

COLLEGEVILLE.

This is the semi-annual examination week, one of the most serenuous weeks of the year. The results show a general improvement in all courses. J. J. Hayes, of Ft. Wayne, made a short call at the college last Friday. Revs. R. Pratt, of Wabash, and J. Seimetz, of Lafayette,, were visitors lately. The A. L. S. lately added a list of new and interesting books -to their reading room. - H. Gaul, of Chicago, was down lately to inspect the progress of the buildings and to give the necessary directions for some of the interior finishings.

Leo Marantette, of Indianapolis, a former commercial student, stopped between trains, enroute for Chicago to hands with old friends, and wonder at the vast improvements made since his days ten years ago. The pool club was recently organized under the leadership of J. Fralich, B. Hayes, C. McArdle. Their first report is not particularly flattering to the financial condition, for it is in a primitave state of panic. But the many lovers of the cue and ivory will be able to tide over the difficulty.

The basketball game with St. Mary’s Athletic Club, of Ft. Wayne, was won by the varsity 37 to 14. Old college stars on the St. Mary’s team were: W. Dowling, the Invincible basket shooter of last season; A. Bessinger, O. Birkmeler and M. Pauley. The first period proved very exciting and even dangerous for the locals, as it closed with two points in favor of the visitors. Dowling at center was playing his old-style fast game and was more than a burden for Hasser. Training, however, was against the city team, and in the second half the varsity went at them with a vengeance and Kamp, for the locals, shot baskets at will. There ’were but few points gained from fouls; it was the field baskets that stacked up the score. G. Lange, of Mishawaka, and L. Trentman, of Auburn, accompanied the team.
