EARLHAM-WA8ASH GAME IS iW OuaKer Laos Are Doing Battle With Coach CayoiTs Crimson Warriors. ALL WILL GET A TRIAL 5ACH OF THE EIGHTEEN MEN TAKEN BY VAIL WAS TO BE GIVEN A TEST IN STRUGGLE AT CRAWFORDSVILLE. Earlham this afternoon is doing battle with Wabash college at Crawfordsville on the gridiron and local Earlham supporters are anxiously awaiting the result of the game. A low score is all that the followers are ex pecting and if Earlham succeeds in holding the crimson-dyed warriors of Coach Cayou to a less score than did ' Rose Polytechnic one week ago, all will be peace and contentment in the camp of the Quakers. Coach Vail of Earlham, just before leaving to enter the cpmp of the enemy, made the assertion that he could not hope to win against Wabash, who i training and one match game, while j Earlham ha3 had but two weeks' prac-' tlce, but he intended to make his men ; do their best. He felt that each mem-; ber of the Earlham squad is imbued with the spirit of "do or die" and that is Just what it takes to win games. Don't Expect to Win. Since Coach Vail does not expect to win the game this afternoon and there is a number of hard games in the future for the Quakers which will directly bear on the secondary college championship of the state, he will use eVery man taken to Crawfordsville today. Coach Vail took with him a squad of eighteen men and he will see that all are given a chance to show their prowess. In speaking of the matter Vail said that he would learn the merits of the players and would in ; the future have some tangible ground to work upon in organizing a regular ; varsity team. Some of the players, he says, may show up well in practice and others making a poor show in practice need the stimulus of a game ! to give their best efforts. Coach Vail now has no regular team and today's game with the Wabash collegians will determine largely the men who ! shall remain in the regular lineup.! Friends of Wales Gaston are hoping j he may make a good showing today j at end position in the game at Craw fordsville. They desire him to get a iair snow and his mett.'e will be tested today to the limit by the hard and aggreslve playing of Wabash. Earlham students pic their faith to Hancock, the nervy little left end. In the game last year he was crlppled, having a broken shoulder, still he ! showed his ability. This year, being In good condition, his playing will be a feature of the game. Capt. Thistlethwalte, the heavy tackle, will hold his own. Elliott, Wann and Harrell in the back field and White on end are all expected to do well. FIRST GAME OF SEASON IS NOWjfl PROGRESS Football Contest Is on at Reid Field. HIGH SCHOOL VS. RESERVES Quite a large number of football enthusiasts are gathered this afternoon at Reid Field to see the first local football game of the season. The Richmond High School team locks horns with the Earlham scrubs and a good game can be looked for. Both teams have been trained by excellent coaches and are in good condition. Richmond high school has quite a heavy schedule mapped out this season and there is material at the school to make rr. of the fastest teams the school hr-.s been represented by for several seasons.

COBB STRETCHES HIMSELF. The Detroit Tigers, the now recognized champions of the American league this year, passed through Richmond Friday afternoon enroute to St. Louis, where the team finishes the American league race. Hugh Jennings, the genial manager of the aggregation, was all smiles and petted and coaxed his youngsters as if they were two year old cherubs. "Ty" Cobb, the nineteen-year-old youngster, who has been the sensation of the baseball world this year, in both the base running and hitting departments of the game, climbed off the train and with arms around two of his fellow players, proceeded to take a "stretch" by walking up and down the station Platform, while No. 7 made its short stop here.

THt Lr r.wuOn, Dueling; an it V.'ns I;i France In tl:f The passion far 'dueling, which h:i co.t France, it was said, between 7,0' aud 8,000 lives during the twoii: years of Henry IV. s reigu, was at : height whoa his son came to t throne. The council of Trent in lo had soliuenly condemned the practi of single combat, impartially iucluJii principals, seconds and spectators . its penalty of excommunication. i an edict of Iloury pronounced tl "damnable custom of dueling iutrodt ed by the corruption of rue eentur to be the cause of so many piteous cldeuts. to the extreme regret and d'. pleasure of the king and to the int. arable damage of the state "that v should count ourselves unworthy t hold the scepter If we delayed to i press the enormity of this crime."

A few mouths later the Comte d Bouteville thought fit to test the min Ister s patience in this directiou. The Place Koyale had long been a favorite dueling ground, and De Bouteville traveled from Brussels to fight his tweaty-second duel here, in the heart of Paris, in deliberate defiance of the king's authority. The result was not encouraging. Montmorency though he was, the count went with his second to the scaffold, and the marked decrease from that time in the number of duels may be attributed either to the moderation used In framing the law or to the luerorable resolution with which it ws enforced.

II P0RCEL1 FILLING One of the Dainty Operations In Modern Dentistry. THE WAY THE INLAY IS MADE. Fashioned In Fragilo Gold Leaf, the Matrix It Sunk by Vibration In Semifluid Asbestus and the Mold When Set Filled With Porcelain. This was an upper front tooth that had once been nicely filled with gold, but fresh decay having set In around that filling it had become necessary to fill the tooth again. This time, the dentist said, he thought he would fill it with porcelain. All the processes of making a porcelain inlay are interesting. Having drilled the cavity In the tooth to its required depth and shape, the dentist next proceeds to make a matrix or mold of it in gold foil, which he is enabled to do without breaking this delicate material by the use of a bit of sponge between it and the crowding tool. So he crowds the gold foil down around within it everywhere to fit Into the cavity perfectly and gets the depth all around the edge of the mold so exactly that the inlay to be made In It when set into place will not only fit perfectly in the cavity, but fit into it with its edges flush all around with the surrounding surface of the tooth. The mold thus made of the cavity in the tooth may look like the tiniest of tiny gold cups or it may have some irregular shape, according to the shape of the cavity; but, whatever its shape, this mold of gold foil Is so slight and thin that a touch would crush it, and it seems indeed as if a breath would blow it away, as probably It would, and you may wonder how a solid piece of porcelain can ever be formed in a mold so frail and delicate, but It is all really very simple, as you will see. Now the dentist takes a small metallic holder about the size and shape of a very small clam shell, which he fills with powdered asbestus mixed with water, and on top of this yielding material, handling it gently with a pair of pliers, he sets the delicate little gold mold, with its closed end down, resting so on the surface of the moistened powdered asbestus. This holder has a lip on one side of its edge, by which It can be lifted wltn a pair of pliers made for the purpose nnrt sprvinar thus as a handle for it.

Lifting the little saucer now by this creasing their holdings in the vaudehandle, the operator rubs on the han- ville line and have just added their die very gently, as one might draw a n5nth houge by easing the new Orfiddle bow very gently back and forth on th Btpln of a fiddle.

uoi r jiu.', umu i --''- - gold mold firmly imbedded in practically solid material and ready for use. The inlay will be made In the mold from a porcelain powder. Torcelain powders for dental use are made by the manufacturers of dental supplies in endless variety of shades, so that it is easily possible to get a powder whose finished product will match any tooth. The dentist has a great assortment of teeth made from porcelain powders, these all named or numbered, and he matches up your tooth with one of these and uses for the Inlay the powder of the corresponding number. With the little gold mold all ready, the operator now mixes a sufficient mm v t t-rr Vl -t S-v ft 1 nin rATfloi' TIT Y o!a1,a1 rfra him tho material In n nlastic form, while at the same time the alcohol wifl evaporate quickly. He wets also the asbestus in the mold holder to keep that from absorbing the alcohol in the porcelain powder. And now with his porcelain In work able form he fills the mold witH It, to make there the shape that Is to be set Into the tooth, and then he proceeds to fashion in the plastic material Its out ward part. This may be simply a slightly rounded surface, for an inlay that is to go Into the flatter part of a tooth, or the Inlay may include an edge or corner of a tooth, or both; but, whatever the outward part may be, the operator so molds and fashions it that it will continue and complete naturally the contour of the tooth in which the Inlay Is to be set. With the modeling thus finished, the inlay is ready for the final process, and now, with the holder, mold and all, it Is put into a tiny electric oven, out of which after a saitable time it is taken, baked Into a solid bit of porcelan. the inlay completed. It is set in place with cement, and so perfectly is porcelain inlaying now done that except upon the closest inspection it may be impossible to tell In an inlaid tooth where the natural tooth ends and where the Inlay begins, a nice operation In modern dentistry.

Is over and persons now going hunt ing for the bushy tail are very likely to evoke the wrath of the game ward ens, who have been hovering around Wayne county for some time. It is unlawful to shoot or hunt squirrels and game wardens, it is asserted are determined that the law on the t subject shall be enforced. Not only is the squirrel law in effect but it is unlawful to hunt rabbits and birds of any kind except wild water fowl. As there are scarcely any water fowl in Wayne county, to see a man going around with a gun is "prima facie" evidence that he intends to violate the law. The season will not open again until November 10. Violations of the game laws entails a heavy penalty, ranging from $35 to $100 fine.

CORONERS IN MAINS:

More Than Officials Fo. Probing Case of Violent Deaths. Suppose you know all nbont the duties of a coroner. Perhaps it would be safer t-j say you think you do. for the chances are that your real knowledge of what the ofScials do is somewhat limited. It wouldn't be at all strance if there are many lawyers who are not thoroughly acquainted j with the duties and privileges of these I oflicials. j Time was when coroners of Maine j outranked the sheriffs. Ever hear about that? It wasn't so many years ago. In those days the coroners were required to give a bond of ?50,000 and the sheriff one of S-tO.OOO. Tcxlay it la different. The sheriffs give the same big bond, but the coroners have to have financial backing to the extent of only about a thousand. The legislature has changed the law. Even now there are ouly two officials who can serve u paper upon a sheriff, a coroner or a high sheriff of another county. It used to be that the coroner was the only one w ho could do this. There are times when it becomes necessary to serve a writ of attachment upon a sheriff, and this, too. when he doesn't owe the man who makes the atachmcnt a single penny. A brings a suit against B and attaches his property to insure getting his cash. P. however, owes C a certain sum. Now, the property which A has attached is worth a great deal more than the amount of A's claim. C can't very well attach it. because there is already an attachment. To cover his claim he must attach the sheriff as custodian of the property. To look out for his own interests he had the attachments made. Here is where the coroner comes in. He or the high sheriff of another county must make the perviee. As coroners are, for the most part, most accessible, they are called for oftenest in these cases. The coroner also does the work of a sheriff or his deputy in the case of the death of a sheriff. When a sheriff dies his deputies "die with him." In such an event the coun ty is left without a sheriff or a depu ty sheriff. Its only officers to serve civil papers are constables, and they cannot make attachments above a certain sum. Some provision has to be made by law to guard against emergencies. On the death of a sheriff the governor, first of all, appoints a Jail breaker, so that there may be some person legally to have charge of convicts in the nenal institution of the county- After that he names a sheriff to fill the unexpired term. Bat this doesn't provide for the service of civil papers. Here is where the coroner steps in. He, under the laws of the state, ha3 power to serve these papers. The last sheriff to die in office in Maine was Sheriff Reed of Penobscot county in 1895. In the time between his death and the appointment of his successor, Charles R. Brown of Springfield, there came an important attachment to be made on a Bangor concern. A coroner was called in by the firm of lawyers who had the case, and he was requested to make the service. It was a new duty for the man, but he suc cessfully grappled with it You see, coroners are something more than officials for investigating cases of violent deaths. Lewlston Journal. An Emperor's Attic. The winter palace of the czar surpasses any other palace In Europe. It is on the banks of the Neva and owes Its existence to the Empress Catherine II., that most extraordinary woman, extraordinary in ability and in vice, the surprise of all her contemporaries and the wonder of all who have studied her character. The building Is four stories high, of a light brown color and highly ornamental In architecture. It is a wilderness of halls, etalrways and apartments. The Nicholas hall and the St. George's hall will never be forgotten by those who have seen them. One of the most interesting rooms is that where Nicholas I. died. It Is in the upper story of the northeast corner of the building and is approached by four doors and finally by a narrow passage. It Is a small room, only about eighteen feet long and twelve feet wide, with two small windows, and is the place where the emperor spent most of his time when not officially employed. It is the room in which he died, some say by poison administered by himself in a fit of melancholy induced by the outcome of the Crimean war. The room remains just as he left it. Near the center is a plain Iron bedstead. Some chairs and a few cheap pictures adorn the room, and a dilapidated, down at the heel pair of slippers complete the furnishings of the attic room in the palace. Dancing Birds. One of the many strange sights on the plains of southern Africa is a party of waltzing ostriches. Their queer antics have been described thus: "When there are a number of them they will start off in the morning and after running a few hundred yards will Etop and with raised wings will whirl rapidly round till they are stupefied or perhaps break a leg. The males pose also before fighting and to make their court. They kneel on their ankles, opening their wings and balancing themselves alternately forward and backward or to one side or the other, while the neck is stretched on a level with the back and the head strikes the sides, now On the right, now on the left, while the feathers are bristling. The birds appear at this time so absorbed in their occupation as to forget all that 13 going on around them and can be approached and caught. The male alone utters a cry. which sounds much like an effort to speak with the mouth shut tight."

Here is one of them: A man had a wife who was the plague of his life. At last he could bear It no longer and threw her down a well. But three days later he relented and let a rope down the- well for her to come up by If she was still alive. Instead of her a huge dragon came up. The man was terribly frightened. He felt sure that the dragon would devour him, but instead of devouring him It overwhelmed him with gratitude and promises of favors for having delivered him from the society of such a ter- . rlble companion. As a reward the dragon entered into a conspiracy with him. It arranged to go and coll Itself round the body of the king's daughter. Then, after the astrologers and magicians bad used all their still In vain in the attempt to deliver her, the man was to come to the king and say: "Sire, I am the only person who can save your daughter. If I do not succeed you may kill me." The dragon would recognize him and release ber, and the king would of course recompense the savior of his daughter with splendid presents. The dragon made it a stipulation that if he seized any other princess the man ' was not to interfere on penalty of 1 death. So the dragon went and colled himself round the daughter of the shah, and after every remedy had been tried without success the man canio and presented himself before the shah, saying: "Sire, I am the only person s who can save your daughter. If I da not succeed, you will kill me." Then the dragon knew him and went away, . leaving the princess free, and the king bestowed her upon the deliverer and gave him an enormous fortune. After a time the dragon went and colled Itself round the body of a princess of Franghlstau. The king of Franghistan, who had heard of the marvelous rescue of the shah's daughter, sent an embassy loaded with costly presents to the court of Persia, praying her rescuer to come and free his daughter also, but the man remembered what be had promised the deacon and was afraid to go. His royal father-in-law naturally did not understand the reason and was furious and insisted that he should go. At last the man had to go, but he was In terror as to what would happen for breaking bis contract with the dragon. When he arrived in the presence of the dragon and the princess be said to the dragon: "I have not broken my word. I did not come to deliver the princess, but only to tell yon that my wife has succeeded ia getting out of the well and is coming to avenge herself upon you as quickly as she can." The dragon, remembering the terrible time be bad with the man's wife, flew away, for he knew the proverb that "it is better to dwell in a wilderness than in a querulous and angry woman."
