C10WDS WATCH; FEW PARADE

ARE ORDERED 'TO LEAVE TOWN

A number of Greencastle citizens j who saw the Taft demonstration in Indianapolis have come home feeling ! that the Republican candidate is not ! as popular in the state capital as the Republicans would wish.- These persons compared the demonstration last night with the one given for McKinley in 189C. Then, it is stated the whole city was decorated. Yesterday only the Columbia Club and the Marion Club threw out their bunting, and there was some small decoration in other places. In general the great business center of the city was not draped in honor of the

candidate.

The parade was even more illustialive. There were many people out to see, but few, comparatively, in line. There was much music and many negroes, In other words, the paid part of the parade was a success. Otherwise it was not. One factory employing nearly two thousand men sent a Republican Club of less than two hundred. The Business Men's Club had less than fifty. Another club from a large manufacturing plant numbered b-ss than one hundred though more than a thousand men are employed. The small

IS POSITIVE EVIDENCE

At Huntington, W. Va., yesterday, Mr. Bryan very neatly proved that the Republican party can not be responsible for so much of the prosperity of the country, at least as is due to the gracious sunshine. For in an audience, largely composed of farmers, he said: I can prove to you that tho Republican party has nothing to do with fertility of soil or sunshine or rain, for if it did there would ho a trust on sunshine and a meter on the sun. Tho fact that these things are not monopolies is conclusive proof ttiat the Republican leaders exercise no control over them. All the great sources of wealth, or nearly all, except the soil and the sunshine, have been monopolized under Republican rule—oil and coal and railway and iron and lumber (the list is tedious); so, clearly, if fertility of soil and sunshine are not monopilized the Republican leaders can not be in control of them.—Indianapolis News.

In spite of the threatening weather Old Gold Day is again a great success. The celebration started off with a rousing chapel meeting, then the underclass contests were held. In the afternoon the seniors played the juniors as a curtain raiser to tho Georgetown-DePauw game, and tonight there will be a Ixive Feast of the faculty and student body held in Meharry Hall. A Rousing Chapel. The first event of the day was the joint chapel meeting held in M ‘harry Hall at which everything was done to arouse more spirit. The classes took up much of the time with their yells and then several speeches were made by the leading men present. Basketball, Freshmen 2:5, Sophs. :i. Then the crowd assembled at the tennis court to witness the annual basketball game between the two underclast.es. This proved to be rather uninteresting as the first year men had no trouble at all to place the goals. Tho freshmen team was composed of unusually fast material, which will undoubtedly be used b> the Varsity later. McNaughton, the former I’rep captain and Wolf carried off the honors for the freshmen. Tho score was 23 to 3. Football, Sophs. IO, I'resli. O. The football game which was plaved immediately afterward turned the tables. Tiie sophomores had the heavier team and had more training, but in sjiite of this the contest was very close until the lust minutes of play. Within five minutes after the game was opened, tiie sophomores carried tho oval to the forty yard line where Crouch made a pretty place kick against the wind. Score, sophomores 4; freshmen, 0. Following many pretty plays and one successful forward pass, tin sophomores carried the ball witliii striking distance Imt lost it by : fumble. Time was called witli tlu score unchanged. During the second half the fresh men braced up and the game wai very uncertain. But witli one mlu ute to play Crouch attempted anotli er place kick for the sophomores The wind was too strong against hin and the pigskin fell short. Tlu freshmen fumbled and a second yeai man stepped through for a touch down. Goal ws kicked. Final scon 10 to 0 in favor of the sophomores. Scrap. Fresh., 7; Soph., ^1. Following this contest the r.nnua scrap, this time in the form of a “ti< up,” was indulged in by the tw< classes. The order of the scrap was foi each side to tie up the men of th< other side. Each class was i»llowe<

to use thirty men and each was giv en two ropes. The scrap lasted twen ty minutes and afforded inuel amusement to the crowd. This serai unlike the old ones resulted in tu casualty and injured list, as tlu judges allowed no rough nor nnfaii play. At the end of the allottee time, the freshmen had seven inei tied while the sophomores had six. The first year men thus secured complete victory over their oldei brothers. They carried off 75 points. 25 for basketball victory afid 70 for scrap victory to their opponents 25 for the bootbiill and thus won the pennant. The Flag Dole. The celebration of the day then ceased until after dinner. Last year tho fair sex of DePauw were much J chagrined in that they had no share of the fun, so this year they gave the flag pole dance. Tills occurred at 1:20 this afternoon. The girls all dressed in while gave their exercises on the campus. The pole was decor ated with two shades of old gold, tiie college color. Later in the afternoon the seniors prayed the juniors as a curtain rais-

The weather man stirred things up little In tho past two days and the weather last night began to got a little of the “real thing” touch to it. drizzling cool rain fell for a few hours last night and this morning it was decidedly cooler. All day it continued to grow still cooler and the the clouds had the appearance of

rain.

No rain fell, however, but it looks though it might begin at any time, it is safe to say that fires and heavy cover will be needed tonight.

A VERY SILLY STORY

A story circulated by certain men who knew better, but continued the lling of the story for the aiiiiisx*nient it gave them to distribute falsehood, were telling today that Bryan received $150 for the speech ho made here last Tuesday. Of course it is plain fabrication, by the way not the first to issue from the same fertile minds that planned and desseminated this. There was a small purse contributed to the chairman of the state committee to aid in defraying the expenses of tho train In Indiana. Bryan lias no brother who took part the Panama Canal steal, looting the people of some $35,000,000. Nor has he a Rockefeller, a J. J. Hill nor yet a Harriman behind him. The people are ready and willing to help. What was contributed here went to the state committee. The people were willing to give it. They were not willing to give tho $35,000,000, from which spoils Brother Charley Taft is now financing special trains.
