A STUDENT FROM CHINA To Speak for Western Expected That Her Remarks Will Have Special Significance. On her debating team, which will meet the co-ed team of Earlham, in this city Wednesday night, Western Seminary at Oxford, Ohio, will have a resident of Canton, China. , The question to be debated is, "Resolved, That the Chinese should be admitted into this country on the same conditions as other foreigners." Miss Edith Fulton, the student frora the Celestial Empire, will tell tl.e judges why the Chinese should be discriminated against, for Western seminary has the negative side of the question. She has been a resident of China for a long time, ami it is said that it was her request that the Oxford team chose the negative side of the question submitted to it by Earlham. The debaters for Earlham are: Miss Delia Hester, Vermillion, Grove, 111., Miss Kate Cochran Fairmount, 'Anderson, Miss Mae Tompson, alternate and timekeeper, Richmond. Prof. E. P. Trueblood has received the names of the Western team,which is as follows: Miss Marie Ada Simpson Bellefontaine, O.; ; Miss Mabel Agnes Taylor, Oak Park, 111.; Miss Edith Mary Fulton, Canton, China ; Miss Irmen Eugenia Finley, alternate Xenia, Ohio.; Miss Lucy Tufts Bowen, time keeper, Logan, O. NEW COURSE IS : VERY POPULAR MANY TAKE ADVANTAGE OF COMMERCIAL TRAINING AT HIGH SCHOOL. DEPARTMENT QUE TERM OLD And as There Has Been No Op- ' portnnity to Prove Whether Education is Practical. The commercial course in high school, which was installed last September, has had a term of unparallelled success. During the past term the course has proven most popular with the students and large classes have been, instructed in book-keeping shorthand, commercial arithmetic, spelling and other subjects which had eeemed to have bten lost in the higher branches of public schools. Interest in the shorthand and typewriting departments, especially has been great and the students seem more anxious to acquire these branches of learning than some of "the other subjects. Prof. Albert Jones, who has charge of the commercial department, reports that the students are quick to learn and that many, of thenr are now well enough - educated in book keeping to be able to fill a position as book keeper for small firms. . . There has not been time enough to see what will be done with the knowledge of commercial life which the students derive from this depart ment! as none of them have left " school as yet to put in practice their learning. This can be told better when some of them have accepted poWOW S A

Grammar anj ograpy are also taken up for a review, wnn tne result mat tnai which was learned in the grade schols, and forgotten before entering High school, is relearned again before graduation, when the results of the education begin to count. Prof. Jones -will have an assistant in the Commercial department after today, as C. E. Morris has been engaged as an instructor to assist in various departments, the commercial more than the others. DEPAUW LIGHTENS COURSE BIBLE STUDY AND SOME MATHEMATICS ARE DROPPED. Dropping of Bible Study at School Is Denominational Same at Earlham. In order to make the work lighter for the freshmen who will enter Depauw in the future, the faculty of i ' I mm m m m .1

When asked whether . the same course would be followed at Earlham President Kelley stated that no such action would be taken as it had never been considered and probably never would be. President Kelley also said that Earlham used the elective sj-stem to a large extent, and that students were not required to5; take the Bible course. aEARLHAM COLLEGE NEWS Day Students Meet. The day students met at Earlham Friday in Prof. E. P. Trueblood 's recitation room, to lay plans and get up enthusiasm for the "Sargasso."

INTEND TO GOT OUT HALF RATES CENTRAL PASSENGER ASSOCIATION TO TAKE ACTION ON MATTER MONDAY. ARMY OFFICERS MUST PAY Full Fare Like ' Common CitizensClergymen May Not Be Affect- ' ed by New Ruling. At a meeting of the Central Pas senger Association, which will be held j in Chicago today, a movement will be put on foot to cut down the eoncessions given to privileged classes, such as clergymen, nuns, sisters of mercy and army officers. Heretofore all these classes of people traveled on half fare, showing a certificate which identified them to be as they claimed, but since the antiVniocs w frntm-i 4 lino 4-1 tr n 1 V a wnil Mai?o iiiu ujtrxi l uao aim cu Lilt; iaiirailroad companies, headed by the roads in Ohio, arew making an effort to stop this practice. It is not thought that ministers will be affected by the ruling this year, as many of the roads have already entered into contrcts with the clergy, but the roads hold that they are not under any obligations to the Government to carry the army officers, and this practice will be sure to be eliminated. RAILROAD NOTES A dispatch from Washington states that the department of justice claims to have a good case against the Pennsylvania Lines for breaking the tariff laws, and it is reported that the matter will be put before the Interstate Commerce Commission to investigate the facts. It is claimed that the Pennsylvania Lines controls the Chesapeake and Ohio and the Baltimore and Ohio railroads, both of which are great coal cariers, and that the Pennsylva nia refuses to allot cars to the independent coal companies. John Falck, passenger brakeman on the Richmond Division has been promoted to freight conductor. It is said that others are to be promoted soon.

This latest acquisition, which is the sixth locomotive to take its place in the Purdue museum, is the "Reuben Wells,' which was built in 1S6S by what was then the Jeffersonville, Madison & Indianapolis Railway company for use on the "Madison incline." When the railroad was built into Madison, part of the track a mile and a quarter in length, had a uniform grade of 310 feet to the mile. The "Reuben Wells" was constructed for particular service on this incline. A matter which lends interest to the deposit of this locoI motive at . Purdue is to be found in the fact that its designer and builder, Reuben Wejls, now superintendent of the Rogers works of the Amer ican Locomotive works, was one of the five trustees of Purdue university from 1875 to 1881.

CHARGES FILED : t.: si (Continued from Pce 1.) government officials. It is charged that they took the painting from the control of the state officer and also seized the property and fixtures of the company. It is further set forth that they misconstrued the lawse and regulations of the treasury department to their own and associates' private gain and each of them accepted capital stock in and acted as an officer of the Golgotha Exhibition Company, controlling an article on which there was a duty and over which and about which they might be called upto to act officially. , In the statement of facts which accompanies the charges it is stated that the picture formerly owned by the . Golgotha ., company and entitled "The Crucifixion of Christ" was brought to 'this country after it had been exhibibted in France and Russia. When it reached this country, it. is claimed, a bond was filed with the treasury department to insure the government against possible loss in case the picture remained in this country. The bond, it is said, was an "exhibition bond" in the amount of $4,000 and was signed by St. Louis men who were interested in the company. . , LYING IN A PRISON IS REPORT CIRCULATED ABOUT ADOLPH BKLICKWEDEL.

Mf. Bliekwedel has a disabled arm and could not serve even if he were "shanghied." City Clerk .Taggart has received a card from' Mr. Bliekwedel, and he reports fine progress and an enjoyable trip.

Eapgjslini; CHIEF'S Mil JC FULLY BORNE OUT MANY FIRES HAVE RESULTED FROM FLUES RUINED BY NATURAL GAS. PARSONS ISSUED REQUEST Early in Winter To Residents Asking that Precaution Be Taken Was Unheeded. & Last fall when it became apparent that the increase in the rate for natural gas would cause an almost general return to coal for fuel, James Parsons, chief of the fire department, issued a warning to the people . Richmond, in which he predicted that unless ' precautions Were taken there likely would be many fires in residences this winter because of defective flues. Vr ; '. . Chief Parsons called attention to the fact that during the long period that natural gas had been used, great damage had been done to the interior of chimneys, the mortar in most instances, though often the bricks as well, becoming disintegrated as a result of some chemical action upon them by the fumes from natural gas. It was pointed out that with such defects existing there would be great danger of conflagrations when wood or coal fires were started this winter. Sparks from stoves and furnaces are likely to enter the crevices between bricks in the chimney causing fires that may do great damage. Probably not a dozen persons in Richmond took serious notice of Chief Parsons' warning, but already his predictions have been borne out. During the past two weeks more than a dozen alarms have.:leen? sounded and with two or three.cXceptions the fires have had their origin in defective fines.
