ATHLETICS GALORE TO MARK EVENT
Both Indoor Track Meet and Basket Ball Game at The Coliseum. EARLHAM IS ANXIOUS. BASKET BALL MEN DESIRE" TO WIN AS ROSE ONCE DEFEATED THE QUAKERS THIS YEARCOACH VAIL IN CHARGE. Pertiaps tTio largest crowd that has fver attended an athletic event given by Earlham college, at the Coliseum, will bo present tonight to witness the indoor track meet between Earlham classes and the basket ball eon1est between the Quakers and Rose Polytechnic Institute. There are two reasons why these events are of more than ordinary interest. One of them is that this is the first indoor meet 1ht has been at tempted by Earlbam, and tbe other is that Rose, having won the first game with Earlham, at Terre Haute, the local school is especially anxious Lo win tonight, ana even up the score. If Earlham can add another basket, ball victory to her string it will be a splendid record for the season seven games won out of ten ijla.yed. ' The Indoor meet will begin at 7:.K w'cloc.k. and will Include seven events, common to events of this kind. Coach Vail will be in general charge and will be assisted by a number of other officials who have consented U serve. The meet will serve to give Vail a line on the applicants for positions on ihe track team, and promises to be such a success that it is probable it will be come an annual event. Immediately after the field meet, the Earlham and llose warriors will engage in deadly combat. Coach Vail las secured a good idea of the play of the engineers, and uas coached his men with a special view to taking adTicuige of the weaknesses that exist. '! is one of Vail's strong points his ability to find out where the other fcilow is deficient. GREAT LACKEY SALE Will Attract Attention of Horse Men From All Over the Country Next Week.

HUNTS FELL AGAIN Fast Colonial Team Won Two Out of Three Bowling Games Played.
TEAMS ARE NOW BUNCHED. At the city bowling alleys last evening, the former mighty Hunts again fell by tho wayside the fast Colonial team taking them into camp by winning two out of three games played. All the teams in the league are now bunched and it is anybody's race until the close f the season. The ICntre Nous team is coming from behind at a fast clip and it would not be surprising to see them forge to the front rank. The games last evening were good from a Colonial standpoint and some excellent individual scores -were made by the members of this team. The high scores for the Colonials were as follows: Fosler 189, Denny 180, King 200 and Norton IS. James Martin made high score for the Hunts, rolling 177 and ISO.

It is a matter of twenty odd miles from Loudon to Epsom, in whose vicinity the historic race course lies, and samples of almost every curious thing there is in old England are to be seen along the various roadways. If there were but one road to Epsom, half of the procession that starts from London on the morning of Derby day would be left struggling in the outskirts of the city long after the great race had been run. But there are many, though none too many, since each is pocked to the point of discomfort from early dawn until far into the night. The Derby is a thing for the foreigner to see once and ever afterward to hold in grateful memory, because it is an experience that could never repeat itself to the satisfaction of the mere onlooker. Primarily it is, of course, a horse race, but the race, which occupies such a fleeting breath of time, is by long odds the least of it. Otherwise it is an expression of Britishism such as may not bo witnessed upon any other occasion. It is the one day in the year, I believe, on which English society levels itself out upon the first principle of the brotherhood of man. "Rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief, doctor, lawyer, merchant, chief," without distinction and with perfect camaraderie, come together with the evident if unconscious purpose of proving that to be merely British is all that any true Briton can reabonably desire. The foreigners are the only spectators. Everybody else is "in the cast," as it were, and it is difficult to judge whether the king, with his nobles and their bevy of brilliantly attired ladies, or the coster in his donkey cart, with "the missus and the kids," is the leading actor. Perhaps it would be better to call it a variety show and to decide that each in his "turn" is a star in his own particular performance. Leslie's Weekly. MOHAMMED'S BLOODY HAND Histury of the Imprint' on a Pillar In the Chareh of St. Sophia. In the course of our exploration in Constantinople we visited a building In an obscure and poor quarter of i Stamboul inhabited solely by Moham medans. It U called the Mosque Kahrie, but it is or was a church dedicated to the Blessed Virgin. The beauty of the mosque ceiling and walls not even centuries of neglect have been able to obliterate. When we returned to the great Church of St. Sophia, now a mosque, and saw again the print of the bloody hand of Mohammed, which is pointed out high up on the wall of that nce Christian church, we understand its significance better than we had at first tight. Mohammed 11. after advancing his outposts gradually and stealthily had finally, as if in a night, crossed the Bosporus from Asia and raised his forts on the European side of the stream. Just the day before, on a trip up the Bosporus, we had seen the ruins of those fortifications. ' 'Ihe rulers of the c'.ty had protested iu vain against this fiteroachnieut. When the Mos-ienis finally ai tacked i the ciry the Christians fled 11 terror to i St. Sophia. An ancient legend, firmly believed, promised that th's sanctuary wa absolutely safe. Mohammed proved The fallacy of their trust by breaking iwn the doors, murdering those wti.v had sousrht safety there, men. women and children so many of them that finally, forcing his horse over Uie srat pile of dead bodies, away up on the side of a pillar he planted his Moody hand ou tbe clear wall in token of his victory over the Christian. That gory hand still overshadows the fairest portion of soutneasUra Europe. Kosury Magazine. Whrre They Agrrra. "But I am 00 unwortny, darling!" he murmured as he held the dear tflrl's band In his.

HAVE G000 PB0SPECT Local High School May Have Both Baseball and Track Teams.
FINANCES BOTHER SOME. -t the mooting uC the executive committee of the Richmond high school athletic association one of the important questions that confronted the commit tre, was the indebtedness uf tho basket ball team which is $10. lo. It was decided that the committee should seek the aid of the new culinary experts, the members of the Alpha Mu Kappa for tlv purpose of seeing whether or not they will nor conduct a candy stile at the school some time within the next few weeks. The next and most important question over which there was much k-liberation was in regard to the spring athletics of the high school. Tho prospects for a good base ball team are the best they have been tor some time. There are a number of the old players In school and there are a number of new ones entered from the Garf i Id. It is expected that the base bail followers at toe school will have t v o teams in the field. In order to have two teams tile athletic association will have to make some arrangements to secure money with which to purchase equipment. The track team this year will be fast, and will participate in two meets, the Indiana State High School Athletic association field meet and the Eastern Inliana High School Athletic Association. Tho latter association is composed of the track teams of Anderson, Marion and Richmond. In order to equip these teams the committee decided that it would be the best plan to pursuade the high school students to give some kind of a play in the near future and charge some small admission, all receipts going to the athletic association. It is thought that in this manner the association would be able to realize quite a snug little sura. If the play is given it will probably be in a musical nature, as there are a number of the high school students who have taken voice culture and have taken part in several productions that have been given in the city. The committee will hold a meeting next Tuesday evening and make fur ther arrangements for securing money to carry on the athletics at the school. A complete list of the students be longing to the athletic association will bo made out. and placed on tho bulle tin board and a new canvass made for Freshmen and the older students who did not. join the association last term when the canvass was made. ' CHANCE SIZES UP NATIONAL SITUATION Says Cubs Will Have to Beat Phillies. Chicago, March 6. Manager Frank Chance of the Chicago National league team, before departing for West Baden, gave out a statement in which he sized up the National league teams in their 1908 pennant race. He said in part: "Philadelphia and Pittsburg arc the clubs we have to beat. Boston looks to me like a coming team, and will put up a hard battle for every game. There doesn't seem to bo much change in the outlook for Cincinnati and St. Louis. "The Cubs will start at top speed with the belief we must work hard, but confident we can win three straight pennants. The Cubs ought to win the 190S pennant." The Bab Of The Body. The orpan around which all tho other org-ans revolve, and upon which they are largely dependent for their welfare, is the stomach. Vhen the functions of the stomach become impaired, the bowels and liver also become deranged. To cure a disease of the stomach, liver or bowels get a 50 cent or $1 bottle of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin at your drugeist's. It is the promptest relief for constipation and dys pepsia ever compounded. "I tell you for a modern business man Black is white." "That's because he's green yet." 'I don't agree with either of you. I found him rather blue this morning." ''Oh. that was for a personal reason, lie is sensitive about turning gray so Boon." Baltimore American.

A PLAINTIVE WAIL Marion, Ind., Will Get to See No League Baseball This Year. N.-l. CIRCUIT DEFUNCT. Poor Marion that base ball forsaken town in Grant county is wailing for a special dispatch says prospects for league base ball in the proposed Northern Indiana league are not bright at. this time. It seems that the failure of Marion to get into the game has discouraged the promoters and the other cities, that expected Marion to furnish the backbone of the league. Nothing is being said about another meeting that was called for Huntington and it is probable no league will be organized. The dispatch has the following comment to make of local interest: "The proposed Indiana-Ohio league seems to have died for want of nourishment. When the deadlock and split occurred at Van Wert, O., it sounded the death knell of that league. The faction that organized the proposed league, has been attempting to get the Indiana cities lined up again but all efforts so far have failed." Fame's Brevity. Uc arose and looked around. Not an eye was turned in his direction. The audience seemed oblivious of his existence. But, no! A shrill voice suddenly greeted him. "Sit down, you big monkey!" it said.

And yet only ten short years lefore he was the idolized halfback of his college eleven, and Hu.Oou shrieking voices had cheered his prowess. Cleveland Leader. The Twilight Of tife. The muscles of the stomach in old age are not as strong or active as in youth and in consequence old people are very subject to constipation and indigestion. Many seldom have a bowel movement without artificial aid. Many, also, have unpleasant eructations of tras from tne stomach after eating. All this can be avoided by the use of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which permanently regulates the bowels so that passagres come naturally, and so strengthens the stomach that food is digested without discomfort. Druggists sell it at 50 cents or il a large bottle. The paper caps used on milk bottles are made at the rate of tvoo.tioo a day, and one man operates live machines.
