THE QUAKERS ARE DOWNED BY WABASH IN A FAST GAME FOURTH DEFEAT Tor Earlhamites This Year-Were Unable to Score While Wabash Scored at Will. THE HEAVY WABASH TEAM Had the Best Backfleld Ever on Reid Field Shank Was Ruled from the Game. The Karlham football team yesterday afternoon for the fourth time this season, went down, the scrappy Wabash eleven turning the trick. The cause of the defeat can be told in a few words. The Quarkers were oulweighted, outclassed and outplayed. The largest crowd of the season witnessed the game and rendered the home team loyal support to the bitter end. The game was snappy from a Wabash point of view and Shank, .the pugilistic end im the "Little Giant" eleven, was Umled off" tbrM8id of-using t his r'dokes" too -freely on an Earlham forward. Wabash has thcobest bacK field that has played on Reid field for several seasons and their work, with Laurence, of Earlham, punting, was easily the features of .the game. The scpre at the end of the game was 35 to 0, and every point scored was clean, straight football. . ' Not once during the game did Earlham make a first down and the beautiful punting of . Laurence was the only redeeming feature of the Quaker play. The contest emphasized one thing conclusively. 1 he vulnerable points in the Earlham defense are the tackles. Miller, the little Wabasli quarter, who ran his team like a machine, was not slow in picking out these weaknesses and eight' out of every.-ten1 plays were directed at these loop holes. " ' The first half was opened by Wabash kicking off to Earlham. The Quakers' first play was directed against the Wabasli line and the assault was reoulsed with ease. On

Af the second nlav Earlham was penal-

ized for offside play and Laurence promptly punted. Wabash hinged her first two assaults against Reagan at right tackle and made no headway, these two attacks, however, seemed to take all of the strength out of this player as the remainder of 'the game the Wabash backs found Reagan avenue a splendid driveway for advancing the ball. After these two repulses Wabash punted and the back who handled the ball was downed on his ten yard line, after two more futile attempts to advance Ihe ball .Laurence iftmted .to mid feld. Wabash secured the ball and the parade to he first touchdown jbegan. Six times running Marlatt, llarn and Cantrell. the big colored (Continued on eighth page.) THEORY OP PENSIONS. ! "It is to be regretted that the sentiment concerning the old soldier should be considered as ,p political r used iolitically. There is much less of politics in ff it than is represented, because the sentiment is common to our American people. .

Went to Hunt for His Horse Land ed in Jail. Mike Dillon, a farmer living a few miles southeast of this city, will never again try to do two things at one time. Mike arrived in Hamilton Thursday and hitched his horse and buggy "somewhere up town ' as he savs. He went around to see the sights and then started for his horse and rig. While on the hunt, he took a drink of "booze." The liquid tasted rather good to Mike, so he just stopped hunting for his horse and rig and began to hunt more "booze." Late in the evening when Mike had absorbed all the "booze" he could, he ' was found by an officer trying to hold up a telegraph pole He was hunting for hi horse and rig, but was in such . condition that the patrolman decided it was not safe to let Mike hunt anything. He was taken to the city lockup for a rest, while the poliee are now busily engaged in hunting the horse and rig. QUICK WORK Advertise in the Palladium if You Want Results. In yesterday morning's Palladium a notice appeared that Edward Wilfon had lost his overcoat while he v;as on the athletic field in East Main street. About 10 o'clock yesr tcrday a boy appeared at the Wilson residence bearing the overcoat and said that it had been found beneath some leaves when a crowd of boys were endeavoring to make a bon fire. One of the boys remembered of having read of a lost coat in the Palladium, so it was returned to Mr. Wilson. ANOTHER VICTIM Football Player Had His Collarbone Broken. Le Rov MeCrearv, riuht end on the Earlham football team had his collarbone broken during the game between Wabash and Earlham on' Reid field yesterday afternoon. All during the game previous to his receiving an injury MeCreary was in every play and seemed to be the heart of the team. He went into the game with a broken finger and this pre vented him from protecting himseli as well as he might have done. During, one of the plays MeCreary attempted to tackle' one of the Wabash men and received what is called a "stiff arm." MeCreary fell to the ground and one or two other players fell on him. MeCreary was able to stand on. his feet all right, but found that he was unable to. move by himself. Coach Stanley ran on the field and MeCreary was removed to his room in the dormitory where he was examined' by Dr. liramkamp. His brother, George, took his place on the team. POOR SERVICE Given Football Patrons on Saturday Afternoon. The stret ear company gave the people who attended the football game at Reid field" yesterday very poor service. Immediately after the game an ' interurban car came east, but refused to stop for the hundred or more people who were standing at. the station waiting for a car. In fifteen minutes a small city car came by, but it was filled with people from the Country Club" and there was no chance for very many from Earlham to get on. Fifteen minutes more the people waited in the cool air for a street car and when one finally did come it was packed to the guards in a short while. A large number of people had to wait over an hour before they could get to the city. It seems 'strange that the street car company it not able to make proper arrangements, to take care of a large crowd of people and the general supposition has been that the interurban cars stopped for iviiuiimri mni!iT into the citv but .jibe crew of the interurban car ye jterday did not seem to care whethe I ii i .i i. .1... t eshether at

the people were carried to the city or not . . .

BUCHANAN-GLEVELAND-PARKER Grover Cleveland Compares Parker to Buchanan. Well, the Democratic ex-President is High Authority for He Followed Closely in Buchanan's Footsteps. For Instance: From President Buchanan's Annual Message to Congress, 1S57. "With unsurpassed plenty in all the productions and all the elements of natural wealth cur manufacturers have suspended; our public works are retarded; our private enterprises of different kinds are abandoned; and thousands of useful laborers are thrown out of employment and reduced to want. We have possessed all the elements oof material wealth in rich abundance, and yet, notwithstanding all these advantages our country in its monetary interest, is in a deplorable condition." From President "Cleveland's Special Message to Congress. 1S93. "With plentious crops, with abundant pomie of remunerative pro-' duction and manufacture, with universal invitation to safe investment, and with satisfactory assurance to business enterprise suddenly financial fear and distrust have sprung up on every side. Numerous moneyed institutions have suspended. Surviving corporations and individuals are content to keep in hand the money they are usually anxious to loan. . . . And loss and failure have involved every branch of business." Do we want a Parker Message with a similar extract?

Page of the Marion management, received a telegram from Managef Joe Fox, dated at Lowell, Mass., Mi which Fox stated that the entire Marion team had signed. Fox stated .that Jean, Lewis, Cameron, BurgesS : Rhoads and two others had signed 'Marion contracts last night, accepting- salaries within the $2G0 ljmit.'

The Anderson team is all signed; Muncie has most of its men and Elwood has .received the signatures of several rdavers. It is not believed i there will be any further trouble whatever in securing the signatures of the men to this season's contracts. , The affidavits of the managers, swearing them to abide by the salary limit of $200 a week, are all signed and filed with Secretary Durbin, with the exception of that of Richmond. The Quaker management was not represented at the meeting, but Secretary Ciaar, talking over the long distance telephone, informed Durbin that Richmond, while opposed to the affidavit idea and salary limit, would sign if the other magnates voted to do so, but would demand that each club post a $5,000 forfeit. l A meeting of the league will be held -in a short time, at which meettalk.

STUDENT DEAD

Howard Armstrong of Earlham Pass ed Away Yesterday. Howard Armstrong, the young Earlham student, who was .confined to his bed a number of weeks with typhoid fever, died yesterday morning at 5 o'clock. Mr. Armstrong was twenty-one years of age and a member of the senior class. He has been in Earlham for three years and in that time he had gained for himself the reputation of being one of the best students in the school. He was particularly strong in mathematics and was one of the strongest workers in his class. His body was taken to the home of his parents, at Damascus, Ohio. It is likely that a representative of the college will attend the funeral services. The senior class will probably send a message of condolence to the parents of the dead boy and memorial services will be held by the members of this class. QUEERJSAME Two Men Dressed as Quakers Working Against Republicans. a Two men representing themselves as Quakers from South Carolina are said to be circulating among the Quakers of fJrant and surrounding counties distributing anti-Roosevelt literature.

The man has not been seen since Officer McDonald shot at him on the road jeast ot baton yesterday morning. The horse taken from Mr. - Ratliff and which the robber is driving, is considered a very fast one and a gtod roadster, but there is a limit to the endurance of even a fine horse! and there is no doubt that the roblwr will have to leave the animal somewhere before long.
