THE STARR PIANO OUTING

Third Annual Picnic of the Retail Salesmen of This District is Now "In Session."

Col. Arch Street, of the Starr Piano Company's retail department, accompanied by twenty-five or thirty of the salesmen of this district, left yesterday evening for the Starr Piano Camp, south of Centerville, along the banks of Xoland's Fork, where until Monday night or Tuesday morning all cares will be laid aside and the men who sell pianos will mingle in good fellowship and enjoy themselves to the fuJ'it. Col. Street gets the tittle "colonel honestly, for he Is the commanding officer of a regiment of the soldiers who are making the Starr Piano Co.. the master of the piano situation in this district as it Is in many others. The outing party went well equipped for a good time and no doubt will have it. It was purely a stag affair.

Fairbanks In Colorado. Denver, Co!o., Sept. 1. Vice President Fairbanks arrived in Denver en route to Boise. Ida., where he will attend the irrigation congress next week. About 75 prominent business and professional men were invited to meet Mr. Fairbanks at a luncheon given in his honor by Thomas F. Walsh, and later the vice president held a reception at the Republican club...

Mrs. Charles Smith, 1500 North E

street, was almost prostrated for five hours yesterday, as the result of worry over the absence of her three-year-

old daughter, Alice, and then when the child was restored to her safe

sound and well, it was discovered that

Mr. Smith also was missing, though

his whereabouts was soon establish

ed, he having gone in search of the child. The whole affair came about

as a result of a misunderstanding and

now that It is all over the incident seems amusing, though to the par

ents there was great concern yesterday.

In the forenoon Miss Maude Gard

ner of Knightstown, who is visiting the city, and who is a close friend of the Smiths, took the little girl out for

a street car rid with, the mother's permission. After going down town

Miss Gardner went to the Chautau

qua grounds and then returned to the city, took dinner at a restaurant before going back to , the Smith home with the child. Miss Gardner, while entertaining the little girl had no thought that a stay of several hours would alarm the parents, but such was the casa ,and the father had in the meantime set out in search and had not returned when Miss Gardner and the little girl reached home. He was located, however, and informed of the safe return of the child and Miss Gardner and the incident was at an end.

EARLHAM WILL GET NO INCREASE

Andrew Carnegie Has Declined to Give Additional Library Funds.,

MUCH DISAPPOINTMENT.

Earlham Led to Believe That if Extra Endowment Were Raised, Carnegie Would Give More.

The library committee of Earlham college has received a communication from Andrew Carnegie's- secretary stating that owing to the many demands that have been made of the great philanthropist, for additional gifts' to the already large donations, he has made to many libraries over the country, it will be impossible for him to give more than $30,000 to Earlham. This was amount originally promised to the college, but after the college authorities had raised this

amount they set about raising another

$10,000, thinking that Mr. Carnegie would increase his gift an equal sum.

The college was practically success

ful in the effort to raise the additional

$10,000 but Mr. Carnegie has not seen fit to give an additional sum.

The committee on the library af

fairs are not satisfied however and they will immediately set to wrork and raise ten thousand dollars to put on the construction of the building. They ,as well as the board of trustees, seem to realize that $30,000 is not enough to build a . library building, which would be of great enough size to

accomodate Earlham's needs. Owing

to the fact that several members of the board of trustees are so strongly in favor of a larger building they will no doubt see that the additional ten thousand dollars is raised, even if they have to pay it themselves. ,

Matters at Standstill. The work of the committee is at the

present time practically at a standstill. Work on the new building will not be begun this year, owing to the fact that if an effort is made to raise the additional ten thousand dollars

among the friends of the college, it will take some time1 and the plans for the building cannot be begun until it is ascertained to a certainty whether or not the college, can afford a larger

building than that which was first

specified.

Like all ofMr. Carnegie's gifts to

libraries, the eke to Earlham is rather peculiar. The Vollege at no time will handle any of trie thirty thousand dollars, Mr. Carnegj has given them, but all bills for conVtruction are to be

turned over to his secretary for al

lowance.

Indianapolis, Sept. 1, (Spl.) The vital -statistics for the year 1905, as compiled by Dr. J. N. Hurty, secretary of the State Board of Health, show that the general birth rate of the state for the year was 16.65 per I, 000 of population and the death rate lo.TS. In 1904 the death rate was even 14. The births reported numbered 41,114. The males numbered 22,7Sl and the females 21,333; white males 22,290, white females 20,896; colored males 491, colored females 464. The largest number of births was in July the smallest in December. Four hundred and twenty-nine mothers have had 10 children each; 242 have hal II, and 2S1 have had 12 and over. As to the ages of the parents, it appears that 630 fathers and 4.834 mothers were under twenty years of age; that 104 fathers and 14 mothers were in the age period of 60 to 70, and 14 fathers, but no mothers were between 70 and SO. The plural births (twins), numbered 844. The figures relative to deaths show the rather remarkable fact that almost one-third of all the death; In the year (10,700 or 29.2 per cnt.) were deaths of children undew five years 4 of age. There were S.277 deaths, or 26.6 per cent, ni tlj first year of life, and 2,423 death under

the age of five. This Is a losf of one

baby in every four born, afcording

to the figures.

The deaths numbered 35,102; rate

13.78; in the preceeding ylar. there

were 37,240; rate 14.
