WALLS HAS PAID UNDER PROTESI

A test case decided at Lafayette Wednesday is of Interest In Greenastle since its affects the relation of > ounty and city under the new law. I'nder one interpretation of Hie law, where county treasurers collect the taxes for the city they are to turn it over each month. Under another view of the law they are to turn it over to the city treasurer hut twice a year. County Treasurer Walls of Putnam County has contended that the twice a year payment was the correct one, Imt in Hie absence of any decisions to the contrary has been making monthly settlements with the city treasurer. Tlie decision of Hie circuit court at Lafayette upholds the position taken by Treasurer Walls. Tlie decision is as follows: Judge Henry II Vinton, of Hie Su-I l>< i ior Court, has decided that under the law the city of Lafayette can receive jis money from the country I trea -urer only 1 wlce a year, at t he time of the stipulated uemi-aniiiinl I settlements, anti that the practice i f settling will) the city treasurer monthly is Illegal and technically |

The plan calls for a cement basin for each operator, to hold about two and one-half gallons, which tuimt be maintained at a temperature of about 1C5 degrees Fahrenheit. In tlie bottom of eacli basin is concealed the heating unit, which, yvitii the turning of a switch, will keep the water at just tlie right

On the faculty of DePauw are found many versatile men. One lias only to find the way in yvhich they spend their off hours to be convinced of this fact. Some of these men find rest in the gymnasium; others use their spare hours in wood carving and staining; others in writing, while a few are followers of Nimrod. Perhaps Professor Harnes derivet more pleasure from athletic exercise than any of his colleagues, save only Couch Brown iiiinselt The pude hi, received his collegiate training at Columbia. This university him is hii physical as well as intellectual devi l opment, so he yvus influenced to take an active part in feats of physical strength. While in school he represented Itis alma mater as a sprinter in various field meets, and in addition is a good hand hall player.

Both Professor Gough and Doctor Season tiud relaxation in wood carving. Professor Gough lias a litth work-shop where in the late afternoon of almost any day lie can lie found, busily working witli knife and chisel on some ornament for Ids home.

A CHANGE IN STANDARD

I factiire of silk In the Far East is I more or less a mystery to the people

of this country, it is interesting to | know that modern science has invaJ ed even this ancient industry. The silk threads, which go to make the line texture so mueli admired all over tlie world, as every one knows, are obtained from the eocoon of Hie silk worm. These cocoons have to be soaked in warm water in order Hie loosen the dainty strands from the glue-like substance which binds them together, so they can lie wound on a reel preparatory to twisting a number of them together to form a single thread. In far away India, in the ancient province of Kashmir, the natives heat water
