AMUSEMENTS

Executive Committee Decided Boyle Can Deliver Oration Despite Objection.

IS SIMILAR TO ANOTHER.

OEPAUW ASSERTS THAT NORTHERN INDIANA ORATOR'S THEME IS SIMILAR TO ONE GIVEN BY OEPAUW STUDENT.

Tli; exeeutive board of the Indiana f?tatf Oratorical Association, ;t a meeting held at the Dtnison Hotel in Indianapolis yesterday, d-:idl that. .Joseph Justin Hoyle, the orator eliosen liy Notre Dame to represent that inptit.ution at the annual oratorical contest, in Indianapolis, Thursday night, j-hall not be barred from the contest fin account. of charges preferred ogainst hint by students, of DePauw t'niversity. Boyle is to speak on the subject, ' Christianity and the World's Peace." J)Pauw men who are members of the Oratorical Association charged that Boyle's speech was remarkably similar in many respects to the, oration delivered at the oratorical contest, four years ago by Joseph 1 lovers, who was the representative of DePauw. It was alleged that some of the sentences that, are to be used by the Notre Dame man are almost identically the same as certain sentences tised by Dover. The committee discussed the charges at length yesterday. The members of the committee were not inclined to talk of the matter afterward. Klbert Clarke, member of the executive board from Butler University, last night said : "There is nothing lo say about this matter except that the board has agreed that there will be no change In the program and the exercises will be carried out as originally announced.'' Notre Dame Stirred. The University of Notre- Dame has been much stirred up over the clmrgrs against Boyle. Prof. AW D. McClintock of Chicago University and Prof. A. L. Brown, of Northwestern University, who are to be judges at Thursday night's contest, were called Jnto the controversy, it is understood, find the whole matter was laid before them. "These educators took a rather broad view of the case," said a college Man who is familiar with the controversy. "After going over all the facts mnl consulting both manuscripts they decided, as I am told, that either Dev-fu-s and Boyle both got their ideas from the same source or else Boyle obtained his ideas from the speech of Pevers. Whilo.they admitted that certain parts of the two speeches were similar, they did not feel that there was evidence to justify the association iu barring Boyle from the contest." Ci. A. Farabaugh, member of the executive board from Notre DamtMlenied last night that, the board had concerned itself regarding Boyle's speech. 'The committee simply met," he said, ''to make some final arrangements for the contest to take place at Caleb ITills Hall Thursday night. Wo arranged for seats for the different schools and universities that will attend."

It H Taken From Fire Itc Supremacy as Man's Servant. As we hear the whir of the dynamo or listen at the telhone, as we turn the button of an incandescent lamp or travel in an electromobile, we are partakers In a revolution more Bwift and profound than has ever before been enacted upon earth. Until the nineteenth century fire was justly accounted the most useful and versatile servant of man. Today electricity is doing nil that fire ever did and doing it better, while it accomplishes uu.cou.nted tasks far beyond the reach of llame, however Ingeniously applied. We may thub observe under our eyes just such an Impetus to human intelligence and Iower as when fire was first subdued to the purposes of man, .with the immense advantage that, whereas the subjugation of fire demanded ages of weary and uncertain experiment, the mastery of electricity is for the most part the assured work of the nineteenth century and in truth very largely of its last throe decades. It begins at once to marry the resources of the mechanic and the chemist, the engineer and the artist, with issue attested by all its own fertility, while its rays reveal province after province undreamed of aud, indeed, uuexisting before its advent. Kvery other primal gift of man rises to a new height at the bidding of the electrician. F. Nelson Tracy in Illustrated Sunday Maga-Kluc.

This explanation was given today by counsel for the coiiik, when Prince de Sagin's suit against Count, de Castellans for damages to the amount of one trnnc came up for hearing in tho correctional court. "The Count," said Boni's counsel, "still respects his wile, if ho accepted a judgment of divorce from her, it was b? cause of that respect.

Greenfield, Ind.. Feb. 5. Alter four hours' argument this morning the fate of Francis M. iHmcan, the elf-con t'esscd slayei of James Lafollette, was given into the hands of the jury. Over two hundred witnesses have testified in the trial. On cross-examination Duncan said he tried to act rid of Nan Iafollette several times, but could not, as she always sent for him and threatened him if he did not respond. Duncan said the threats made against him by James Lafollette did not scare him, although he knew that Lafollette had iKu'sonod his horses and had been informed that he intended to poison them again. Duncan said he told his wife ;bout shooting Lafollette when he returned home that night, then put Ins revolver away aud slept as sound as he ever did. The evidence was all in at 11 o'clock yesterday and the argument commenced at' 1:30 p. m. On agreement of the attorneys the argument was limited to eight hours, four to a side. The Hon.1 I. S. Jackson, the new democratic stale chairman, who with his caitncr, Karl Sample, was uppoimed by ha cvurt to insist the state's, attor-

panies would not think of undertaking. The patronage at the Gennett this week is very heavy. ney, niadti the opening address for the state. He was followed by Elmer J. Burford for the defense. Earl Sample for the state and Edwin F". Glascock for the defense, each speaking an hour. This morning ex-Judge E. W. Felt closed for the defense and Charles T. Tindall. prosecutor, closed for the state, each speaking two hours.

Fixing the Responsibility For the Lass of Harpers Ferry. President Lincoln's jokes, espec-iaily when perpetrated in connection with grave matters, usually had a purpose

in them. After I.ee had taken Harpers Ferry the president, realizing howgreat a calamity it was to the north- ! ern arms, determined if possible to fix ! the responsibility for the loss of th important position. j Halleck was summoned, but did not I know where the blame lay. "Very j well," said Lincoln. "I'll ask General j Sehenek." The latter could throw no

light upon the question, further thau to say that he was not to blame. Milroy was the next to be called to tho preseuce of the commander in chief and to enter a plea oS "not guiltv."

Hooker was next given a hearing, and ! resources of the state bank

"Fighting Joe"' made a very emphatic disclaimer of all responsibility. Then the president assembled the four geuerals in his room and said to them: "Gentlemen, Harpers Ferry wa? surrendered and none of you. it seems, is responsible. I am very anxious to discover the man who is." After striding across the room several times the president sud( "tly threw up his bowed head and exclaimed: "I have it! I know who is responsible!" "Who, Mr. President; who is it?" asked the distinguished quartet as tney looked anxious, if not troubled. "Gentlemen," said the president, with a meaning twinkle in his eye, "General Lee is the man." There was a lack of mirth in the laugh created, and the four generals took their departure with a determination that they would not again be placed under suspicion.

were affected only slightly by the general financial depression which spread over the country last fall. This fact is definitely shown by a comparison of this report with the report of the condition of banks September ", P.M)7. be-

j fore the unsatisfactory results in the financial world were noticeable, j One encouraging feature is that there were nine more state banks in ! Indiana December ?, than there were ! September indicating that men iwith money still have confidence in the banking business and that they j believe that the people have not lost

confidence in banks. September there were '2'.7 state banks: December ". there were 244 such banks. An increase is also shown in the capital invested. The capital stock paid in of all state banns at the close of business September o. was $;.G2t;,8. The capital stock paid in at the close of business December 3 was $!.S3J)..'17. The noticeable effect of the financial

depression was a decrease in the total
