Coaches Balliet and Jamison, as Well as the entire team. inM.-t that the play was the grossest infraction of the rules they ever witnessed, r.nd all justify the aetion of Captain Miller in refusing to continue the game. The protest tiled will he carried to the board of arbitration of the Hi? Nine, and there is eonUJ-nce that the game will be declared either a tie or bo thrown out altogether. As for the play of Purdue, the coaches end spectators are w 11 satisfied.

Cniiwe n 3IIrth-Pro okliiK Situation at the Lliinbet htowu Dank. Sj'ecial to th" In-'ianaiKjlls Journal. COLUMBUS, Ind.. Oct. 27. An amusing incident Is reported from Ellsabcthtown this morning whenin supposed bank robbers, firearms galore and frightened bank officials figure. The thriving little town of Rlizabethtow u the proud possessor of a private banking establishment. Some time late yesterday afternoon three, susp'ciouslooking strangers applied for tntertainrr.ent at the town tavern. Fach was possessed Ol a package which the landlady at oroe suspected to contain burglar tools and when, after retiring early, the strangers' were heard to rai.-e a rear window which opinis on a low roof, the watchful landlady was convinced that burglary was the intention of her guests and the bank the objective point. Sh- hurriedly imparted her fears to the banker. A hasty consultation was called and it was decided that the bank mu.-t be watched throughout the nis;ht. As it would never do to frighten their wives by remaining out all night to cope with three burly burglars, the banker and his assistant called in two trusty and fearless townsmen, and. after arming them to the teeth, they were posted on the roof of the bank building. wlvr they waited in the moonlight to surprise and capture, if not kill, the unsuspecting robbers should they attempt to loot the bank. Later in the night two rr three Klizabethtown boys returning home from Columbus espied the watchers on lop of the bank building and at once concluded that the bank was about to be robbed through the skylight, and. after arndng themselves, cre pt cautiously toward the building in the hope of surprising and capturing the robbers at work. About this time the watchers on the building saw the dark forms stealthily approaching and at once prepared to give a warm reception to the robbers, as they supposed them to be. Ry mere accident the Identity of both parties was discovered In time to avoid bloodshed, and while the pack peddlers were at the tavern peacefully dreaming' of their intended commercial conquests with the farmers' wives on the morrow, the embryo sleuths, after mutual explanations, went to their beds. w PART OF HIS OWN SALARY

reil hy Mr. Leach In III FfTnrt to Prevent Gn NVnte. Special to th Indianapolis Journal. KOKOMO, Ind., Oct. 27. State Natural Gas Supervisor Leach has sent out notices to his assistants all over the gas area instructing them to at once institute legal action in all cases where gas is being used to propel engines. In hundreds of small factories and shops motors are in use which are propelled by raw, unconsurncd gas passing through the cylinders in place of steam, operating somewhat on the plan of a water motor. In most cases the gas is taken from a high-pressure main, and after passing through the engine is emptied into a low-pressure pipe, but in many instances the gas after going through the motor is permitted to escape in the air. This waste will be stopped imme-diately. Mr. Leach is using all of the Jl.OoO annual appropriation and part of hi own salary in policing the field with assistants, and has instructed them to ferret out every avenue of escape and promptly plug it. There will be a rigid tightening throughout the gas and oil fields. Mr. Leach will begin prosecution, against the Chicago Pipe lane Company as soon as he receives instructions to that effect from the attorney general. It is said that the Chicago corporation is using pressure of 700 pounds to the square inch in forcing gas to Chicago, but a test a few months ago at the Greentown pumping station indicated that the pressure was within the 2o0-pound Iimjt.

Contestant In Oratory Annual Halloween Entertainment Held. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. RICHMOND. Ind.. Oct. 27.

The representative to the State oratorical contest will be chosen at that time. Prof. L P.

Arthur Ellis; "National Disrespect," R. Roy Rarrett; "Touissant L'Overture." Joseph Kenny: "Queen Victoria," Florence Morgan; "The Legacy of John Marshall," Harry Michael; "Anarchy," Clinton Williams. Last evening at Lindley Hall the annual Halloween celebration was held. The girls tendered the honors to the boys this year and issued neat invitations for the function. The death of Robert Shoemaker, a graduate of the college, in such a tragic manner at Wellsville. O., has called attention to the fact that three young men who have been principals of the school at Fairhaven, O.. have met untimely deaths. The others were Curtis R. Roberts, who was accidentally shot last June, and Yv'ill Evans, who died very suddenly at Columbus. O. Tennis has never been more popular at Earlham than it is this fall. The five courts are in almost constant use. The new students, especially, show a liking for the game. Tennis, after having given way to golf for a few years, is undergoing a revival.

Greenenwtle Prenelier' YIevr of tho Temptation in the Wilderne. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. GREENCASTLE. Ind., Oct. 27. The Rev. J. S. Hoagland, pastor of the College-avenue Methodist Church, in this city, this evening preached a characteristic sermon on the "Rread Problem," in which he expressed the sentiment that wealth itself is not wrong; Jesus' temptation to turn stones into bread was a natural thing and not supernatural; He was induced to do it from natural motives, but too many of the people of the world are turning stones into bread and laying it away on orders from the devil, forgetting that the bread is for use and not for storing away. The more bread the better, used rightly. The clerk, hungry for pleasures, finds his salary insufficient and the devil's command to "make bread my way" in listened to, and defalcation results. The newspaper men and the preacher, hungry for popularity, practically take their orders from the devil, and we have yellow journalism and "sensationalism."

After Mrs. Carrie Nation had lectured in Wheeling, W. Va . she went out on one of her saloon-smashing expeditions. As a result, she was arrested and fined. Refusing to pay her fine, she was sent to jail. Has not the time come for regarding this person in a little different light than heretofore? Instead of regarding her as a reformer, promoting the welfare of society, ought she not to be regarded as a lawless person, doing what she can to Impair social welfare? Ought she not to be eschewed by all persons that are opposed to the violence doing so much to make American civilization a by-word and a reproach? When It is remembered that lawlessness in saloon-smashing differs only in degree from lawlessness in the assassination of a President, no one need have any difficulty in understanding the danger involved in even the smallest approval of hvr methods or in showing her any social "consideration.

LEXINGTON, Ky., Oct. 2T.-Thc following Is a portion of the call to-night issued by local breeders: "All those Interested in the breeding,

training or racing of thoroughbred horses are requested to meet at the Phoenix Hotel In this city on Tuesday noon for the purpose of taking such action as may be necessary to determine the truth of reports that a pole, supposed to mark three-eighths of a mile from the wire, at the Kentucky Association race track was removed, and if the reports be found correct to take such action as may be necessary to expose and punish the person or persons guilty of moving It." The call is signed by II. A. Engman. Tevis Wilkerson. Milton Young, T. C. McDowell, P. P. McDowell, J. C. Rogers, G. D. Wilson, R. G. Thompson, F. A. Dangerfield, T. J. Carson, O. IL Chenault, Ed Kane. Charles McMeeken, IL I. Headley. S. C. Lyne. W. S. Barnes, E. F. Clay and Campbell Scott. Few incidents in recent years have created as great a sensation among horsemen as the suspicion, first given utterance last Thursday, Investigated on Friday and proved on Saturday, that one of the poles marking the distances at the race track had on Wednesday night been moved so as to make the pole marking three-eighths of a mile from the timer's stand forty to forty-five feet less than the supposed distance, and then moved back again on Thursday night. Had it been that only the usual workouts were given it would have made no further difference than that several men, who on Thursday thought they had phenomenal yearlings, would have found out the mistake later. There was. however, a gentleman from New York, Mr. Hill, the representative of Clarence Mackay, who was there on Thursday and timed a yearling he had been invited here to see make the short three-eighths in Sti1 seconds. He returned with an option on the colt, said to be $s,0o0. Trainers at the track made the discovery as to the change in the position of the pole. While no one is suspected, a popular demand for an investigation led to this call for a meeting of breeders on Tuesday. SOUTHERN TROTTING CIRCUIT. Terre Haute to He the Most Northerly City in It. MEMPHIS, Tenn., Oct. 27. "The Southern Trotting Circuit is practically assured," said Secretary Murray Howe, of the Memphis Trotting Association to-day. "The fact that the ending of the Lexington, Ky., meeting left the owners of harness horses no alternative, but to go homo until the present meeting at Memphis demonstrated that the South opened a field for successful operation has caused wide discussion among horse people as to the advisability of arranging a Southern circuit that would afford enough paying cities, at convenient distances apart, for a prolongation of the regular season." Climatic conditions prompted the discussion and Secretary Howe was the first to put the scheme in tangible form. Terre Haute, Lexington, Cincinnati and Memphis are the cities more, certain to be in the circuit with possibly Nashville and New Orleans. Lnjoie Home Run. NEW ORLEANS.

MOUNTAINS OF FLAME.

Hunters Iteponille for Destructive Fire in, Pennsylvania. L'XIOXTOWX, Ta.. Oct. 27. The western slope of the Allegheny mountains, through Fayette county, are ablaze from the Youghiogheny river through to West Virginia and mountaineers are fleeing from their doomed homes with their families. Careless hunters started a dozen fires during the past week and the bushes are as iry as tinder. Streams that were never known to go dry are without water and only a drenching rain will stop the swiftly spreading destruction. The lire has been spreading for a week and the glare at night can be seen for miles. The destruction has been enormous to crops, fences, barns, stock and dwellings, with many narrow escapes from cremation in homes that were surrounded by the llames.

Generals Roca and Mitre received a depu-

Citizens Committee Says Strike Is a Tiling of the Past. TAMPA, FIa Oct. 27. Tho following statement was issued to-night by citizens relative to the strike situation here: "The strike of cigar makers known as the Reslstencla Union is practically a thing of the past. The strike has not been declared off by tho leaders of the organization, but the mass of the members have done so. A census of the cigar makers actually at work during the week just closed gives positive evidence that so far as a strike is concerned none exists and the statements made to the contrary by men who try to be leaders are untrue. There are now verylew idle cigar makers in the city. No men who have returned to work have been molested in nr.y manner, and all have been afforded whatever protection they need, but now there Is no necessity for guards at any of the factories, and business is progressing smoothly."

The Rev. 31 r. Anient on the Iloxer I'priMlng; in Cliinn. LINCOLN, Neb., Oct. 27. The Rev. A. S. Ament, to-night, at the Vine-street Congregational Church, recounted before a large and intensely interested audience the siege of Teking, during which he was a prisoner, together with his version of the Boxer uprising. The Boxer movement originally, he believed, was harmless, but its outlawry began when tho leaders realized that they had the tacit approval of the Empress dowager, described as one of the wickedest of women, to commit deeds of bloodshed. The enmity of the Empress dowager toward missionaries and foreigners in general. Dr. Ament admitted, was perhaps natural, because they had taken slices of her territory. Nothing, however, excused this unnatural woman for the murder of her own government ministers and Innocent natives, which, the speaker said, she countenanced, and even demanded. Dr. Ament said hewould return to China. MISCELLANEOUS NEWS NOTES.
