ALL EARLHAM IS AWAITING GAME

Contest With Rose Poly Next Friday Night Has Aroused Much Interest. IS LAST OF THE SEASON. THEN COACH VAIL WILL. TURN HIS ATHLETES' ATTENTION TOWARD BASEBALL AND TRACK WORK YELLOWS LEADING. Today marks the last hard basket ball practice for the Earlham team this season. With Friday night's game the basket ball season -will end and the coach wilt put the men through Hie paces on the track and on the base ball diamond. The track and baseball diamond on Heid field are drying nicely and practice may be begun soon. Guyer has been out throwing the hammer and has been hugging the one hundred foot mark closely. The Yellows are still ahead of the Whites in the number of points scored. Kach new record made gives the ride to which the winner belongs a certain number of points and the Yellows have proved themselves the better men. Game Attracts Attention. The game Friday night is drawing nil attention at present. The Quakers feel that In the Rose Poly team they have foemeu worthy of their steed and will exert all energy to defeat the engineers. The new lineup of the Earlham five has proved to be the best that has been tried this season. Chambers plays a better game at center than he did at forward and Wilson, shoved up to forward has more chances at the goal than he did in the back field. The entire lineup for Friday night will be Jlotchkiss and Wilson, forwards; Chambers (Capt.) center; Hancock and Newsonio, guards. Coach Vail Talks. Coach Vail, when interviewed this morning said, "The boys know that in going up against Hose I'oly'they go up against the swiftest team they have played this year but instead of this discouraging them, it has made them all the more eager to meet the engineers." The entire student body will lend its support In the way of songs, yells and banners and this will aid much toward a. decided victory. HIGH SCHOOL LADS ARE NOW ACTIVE With the Approach of Warm Weather Practice in Track Feats Rules. FRESHIES THERE TOO. THEY, HOWEVER, GENERALLY CONFINE THEIR EFFORTS TO PLAYING MARBLES THORNBURG HAS GOOD RECORD. The high school boys are making use of the small plot of grouud on th south side of the school building since the arrival of the fine spring days. Here the book worms gather before the school hours, and some put the shot, broad and high jump, while the little three and four foot freshmen who have not dropped their childhood habits, play marbles. They always seem to be in great fear of having older students "snatchen up." Of the boys that have been putting the shot in the last few days, Thornburg. tne fast junior basket ball player, leads the bunch for the longest throw, having put. the 12 pounds of lead about 32 feet, while Spangler and Haas are both close behind, averaging from 25 to 2S feet. In the broad jump Howard Iieid is leading the crowd and is expected to be the strong man for the broad jump ou the track team. On account of the smallness of the ground the would be dashers ami sprinters are unable to show their speed, but it is soon expected as soon us South A street has dryed off that there will be a number of scautily clad athletes out making wind.

DEBT HOVERS OVER

High School Athletic Association May Give Musical Comedy to Lift It. IT WOULD PROVE POPULAR. The executive board of the Richmond high school athletic association will hold a meeting the latter part of this week for the purpose of making arrangements for raising a fund to enable the high school basket ball team to get out of debt. The debt was accrued in the last game with the Ritshville team, on account of the support on the part of the students. It is probable that the committee will make arrangements by which a. musical comedy play will be given and the receipts turned over to the athletic association. It is very probable that if such a play should be given, it. would prove very popular, as there are a number of students at. the school who have good voices and have had experience in the lin?.

The fighting craft available for Atlantic coast defense, which will soon Jie ready for that duty are three new battleships the Mississippi, the Idaho and the New Hampshire, two torpedo-lioat destroyers, three torpedd boats and six submarine boats. The navy department is refitting the gunboat Castine as a "mother ship" to the mosquito fleet. The Castine's compressed air and power-generating machinery will be employed for replenishing tho power of the smaller boats in emergencies. This idea strikes well with the jingoes in the East and they are now clamoring to congress for more "mother ships" and more "children." By knowing the tobacco business and how to combine matured tobacco, the same mellow flavor you like is found in the Pathfinder 5-cent cigar.

Senator Allison has not or.'.y at mined the honor of having served in the United States Senate longer than any other man in the history of the nation, but he has the distinction of being the oldest member of that body with one exception. The exception in Senator Whyte of Maryland, who is now in his eighty-fourth year.

YOUNG COLT WAS STRANGE TO THE WAYS OF THE WORLD

Yinjliflij Was Assaulted, Underwear Strewn Over the Street and Buggy Wheel Fractured by Antics of Youthful Equine.

The business district of Main street actually assumed an animated appearance yesterday afternoon. The excitement was caused by the strenuous actions of a frightened colt. One rig was broken, a box full of underclothing was strewn about the street and Officer Yingling's shins were bruised as the result of the antics of said equine. Charles Crocker drove up to the Co-: lonial building yesterday afternoon, hitched his horse and went into a , store. Attached to the rear of his phaeton by a halter, was a colt, not wise in the ways of the world. Just I as Mr. Crocker started to get into his ! rig again, the colt became alarmed at i a street car. It immediately lunged ! against the rear wheel of the rig, frac-; ! Hiring if. Obtaining his release, the; colt pranced merrily up the street un - til it was captured at Eighth and Main streets and turned over to Officer Ying - ling. While Yingling was leading it back to the Colonial building the colt agaiu SMALL NUMBER OF DELEGATES CHOSEN Only One Hundred and Six Delegates Have Been Selected Up to Date. THE GENERAL SITUATION. TAFT MEN ARE CLAIMING EV ERYTHING IN SIGHT IN THE WEST KNOX FOLLOWERS BEGINNING TO TAKE NOTICE. Washington, March 4. According to the returns to the republican national committee, 106 delegates to the republican national convention have now been selected. Some Disappointment. With the exception of Indiana the conventions so far held have for the most part been in known Taft territory. It was the original expectation of the Taft managers to get practically all the delegates in the South, and in transmississippi states. They have not met with the success they expected in the South, and (here is now s disposition on their part to postpone many of the conventions down there. The Kansas state convention in session today is expected to follow the example of that of Missouri, held on Thursday last, and indorse Taft. Kansas has been conceded to Mr. Taft ever since he entered the field. In addition to the Ohio and Kansas State conventions there will be others held in the month of March that will indicate the sentiment of territory that has been somewhat in dispute, and in that respect will be more significant than any yet held.

necame alarmed at.- au alleged street ' car. which the T. H. I. iV K. company insists on perpetrating on a long suf-; feting public. With a snort, the animal made a high dive and alighted with its fore feet on a box standing in ! front of the Loehr & Klute clothingstore. This box contained under- ' clothing. With a crash, the top of the box caved in. This further alarmed the colt and startled Yingling, who was ; desperately holding to the halter strap. The animal extracted itself from the! box, then made another lunge, this time succeeding in alighting fairly ; astride the box. By scientific use of its hind feet the' shins of Yingling became damaged, the box was kicked into the street, and its contents strewn about die gutter. After the colt had removed its support, ' ; to the street it fell, sprawling on its ' back on the sidewalk. Aid was then ; extended to the badly battered Yingj ling, and after the colt bad been plac- ' ed on its feet, the officer gladly and hurriedly turned it over to its owner. tary pf the Treasury Shaw to have it declare for the latter, or else send tininstructed delegates to Chicago. Should tho state convention indorse Mr. Taft the Dakotas and Minnesota will follow suit. Nebraska will hold her convention on March 11 and If reports frem there are reliable she will declare for Taft. Louisiana, Tennessee, Oklahoma and Rhode Island will have conventions in the same month. There has been somo cpuestion as to conditions iu Louisiana, and while the Taft people will doubtless control the regular convention, it is expected that a contesting delega-i tinn similar to that in Florida will be chosen by the non-officeholders, and the national committee will be com-1 pelled to choose between the delega- j tlons. Knox Growing in Favor. According to reports that come to members of the house and senate from Iowa, Nebraska and other Western states, the sentiment is not unanimously for Mr. Taft in that section. During the last week there have been expressions from newspapers and organizations of citizens that indicate that Senator Knox, of Pennsylvania, is growing in favor west of the Mississippi. His speeches delivered in Kalamazoo, Mich., and Pittsburg, particularly the latter, are being widely distributed, and his position as to the relations of the government to railroads and as to the necessity for great waterway improvements is arousing much interest. It can not be said, however, that any practical results in the way of instructed delegate? have been accomplished. b'U the Pennsylvania senator too, is being "placed In an excellent posit.cn for second choice of manv of the delegates from the West in case Mr. Taft should fail of the nomination.

Few theatrical attractions now tntour have received more fluttering praise than has "The Man of the Hour," which is announced to appear at the (.Jennet t on Saturday, March 14. matinee and night. Critics everywhere have found much in rtiis production to applaud. It is by George Broadhurst and is pronounced 'the great American play." A love story of absorbing interest is woven so intimately with the discussion of municipal affairs that there is an irresistible appeal to the emotions. The greut auniences ot women who have attend ed the matinee performances have demonstrated that they like it and that they are quick to respond to every strong touch of political detail as well as to every fine point of sentiment, comedy and pathos. When in Washington it received the unqualified endorsement of President Roosevelt. J Vaudeville at the Phillips. The plan of having a single performance at night, at the New Phillips, seems to meet with more favor than did that of having the performance continuous from 7:30 to 10:1.1. Patronage is quite liberal this week, opening Monday night with a capacity audience. The only exception to the single performance at night, will be on Saturday when two performances will be given to accommodate shoppers who are too busy early in the evening to reach the house in time for the first one. Amateurs are iuvitod to hand their names in at the box office and appear on Friday night. Saturday there will be a special mat-
