The reproduction of the high school play "The Merchant of Venice, Up-to-Uate," presented at Central Musfc hall, last evening, by the same cast that won so much praise for their efforts some weeks ago, drew an excellent house and their efforts were Just as well appreciated and enjoyed as on the Initial performance. The work of the pupils has been highly commendable and any future efforts of theirs in this line will be sure of a capacity house. The First Entry. The first official entry for the automobile races over the Crown Point course next may was requested in Chicago yesterday when the Thomas people entered a 70-horse power 6-cyllnder Thomas flyer, as their representative in the' great event. It is the intention of the manufacturers to establish training camps early in the month of May near the course, so that their drivers may become acquainted with every inch of the speed-way, and the course will be the scene of some ex citing runing long ere the great final rave. Solzman, noted driver, has been engaged by the Thomas firm to pilot their car over the course. Fifteen or twenty more entries are anticipated within the next two weeks. Anyone reading the blood and "thunder yarn concerning the safeblowing In the postofflce, as printed in the Chicago papers, and knowing the real facts of the case themselves, certainly will feel little disposed to place much reliance on stories as given out by them. Shooting, killing, posses, and wild rides figure prominently in the "dope" printed, when in fact the only shot anyone knows anything about, must have been the fellow who wrote the article, and from the truth there is in it, he must have been badly "shoV at that, only this charge must have come out of a bottle. It Is said that workers are engaged at present in securing the lease ofcertaln lands and parts of lands for the coming automobile race from farmers adjoining the course, and that they are meeting with great success in their efforts, the farmers seeming to look with great favor on the proposed race. Ground for grandstands, tents, hospital and training camps, and other concessions has to be secured by lease and rented from the farmers along the course and the work of securing this epace is being done at once. It is not thought that over $43 will have, been lost through the robbery of the postoffice, besides the damage to the safes, and the whole injury is sufficiently covered by insurance. The finding of the Bailey rig, also lends a more favorable aspect to the proceedings and taking everything into consideration it might have turned out a great deal worse, even as bad as some of the Chicago papers made it. Word reached here yesterday that Gagle, the murderer of Lizzie Schroed er. had been given a life sentence by the jury's verdict at Valparaiso, wliere

COUNTY SEAT the case was tried. "While many thought that hanging was far too good for the miserable cuss, still there Is no adverse comment on the decision of the Jury, as Gagle will get all that's com lng to him, at that. The arguments o the counsel for the state and defense was said to be especially fine and Boone made one of his strong pleas to the jury.
