A. G. Luken & Co. HOME BE HELD YEARLY AT CENTERVILLE (Continued From Page One.) hearing. Perhaps no other town in this section of the country has as much interesting history as Centerville. The address given by A. C. Shortridge of Indianapolis was one of the most delightful and entertaining speeches of the evening. He spoke In highest praise of the great progress that been made by the Centerville schools and continued speaking of the Influence of education in the entire country. William Elliott of Sterling, Kan., gave the early history of Kansas and the many advantages that are offered there to the live young man. Leo Gates of Los Angeles, Cal., spoke briefly on subjects of general interest. Mr. Anderson read the letters that had been received from persons unable to attend the occasion in person. Attorney John L. Rupe of Richmond gave a short talk and told the people of Centerville they should be glad the court house is not at Centerville now, as the town would be overflowing with lawyers. The meeting adjourned after several band selections. The success of the day was conced ed and it Is now proposed "home com Ing day" be made an annual event. Reception at School House. At ,the reception at the school house in the afternoon the principal speak ers were A. C. Shortridge and Mrs Grace Julian Clark of Indianapolis. A C. Shortridge is one of the oldest and most distinguished of Indiana educa tors. The Shortridge high school of Indianapolis is named in his honor. Supt. Oldaker after a short address of introduction presented Mr. Short ridge. The venerable old gentleman has a distinguished air and hearing. His white hair and erect carriage made him conspicuous In the crowd as a gentleman of the old school. His blindness was not noticeable but his occasional movement betrayed It in a pathetic manner. The way the audi ence strained for a look at him show ed what a very warm place he holds in the hearts of Centerville people. As he stepped to the platform there was continuous applause. Prof. Shortridge said In part: " I would much rather listen to my old friends tell of the old times than talk myself. I am rejoiced to meet people. I want to talk to them and especially do I like to recall the girls, women now no doubt in this audience. That they have so graciously honored me by their kindness and friendly words pleases me extremely, when I rememoer now rougn were my ways and how gruff and stern my voice In the oljj time. And my reception is one or inexpressible surprise to me. "I well recollect my first experience In this Institution (then the Whitewat er collegiate seminary.) The Rev. G. a. J orcein met Frof. Hoshour and said: "I want a professor of mathematics. There is a young man named Shortridge over at Milton whom I would like to teach here." "He brought me up to Centerville. I was very unwilling as there was to be a festival at Milton which I wanted to attend that evening. But de spite my wishes I was taken with fear and trembling and great hanging back Into the presence of 140 young people who were scarcely younger or more Inexperienced than myself. I knew nothing more than the most rudimentary text books. I went to work. I learned one lesson and this I impress on the modern young man or woman. Whenever you want to learn anything teach it I often stayed up until 1 o'clock at night learning the lesson for the next day. so that I could go honestly before my classes and say. T knew it.' If the young man and women will simply get down and study they can get as good an education as the man who goes to college. "It was a great thing for me and for any young man to be in Wayne county at that time with what was the flower of the Indiana bar and the educational Drofession. Amnn th

bright men at the bar were Morton,

ITfhKaif Vnirmfin TnhnSAn TlnrrhAnal and the three Junians. The early educators were: Louis Betes, Moses Stevens, John Cooper, James Allen and Josiah Hurty. "Wanye county lads not only in the bar, but in education and it has led for many years. It must hold that reputation as its highest treasure and seek ever to maintain it." Praise by Former Teacher. Mary Stevens Cunningham, a former teacher under Mr. Shortridge, spoke, giving him high praise and saying that all who came in contact with him profited by it in after life and felt that all was due to him. Pupil Adds His Praise. Supt. Lee Ault of Cambridge City gave a short talk recalling old school days under Mr. Shortridge and mentioned the power of association as a factor not only in education but in all life. He illustrated it by the homecoming week. Mrs. Grace Julian Clark who is the granddaughter of Joshua R. Giddlngs and daughter of George W. Julian, was one of the most noted speakers. She is very prominent in literary and club circles and is president of the wom an's Club of Indianapolis. She is now a resident of Irvington. She spoke as follows: I confess I feel greatly flattered to be asked to speak on an occasion like this; it lends a new dignity and importance to one's view of one's self. One can no longer claim to be in the rinsfs of verv voung persons, to be sure, but age has its compensations, and to one possessed of the right sensibility it means much to make a pilgrimage to the land of his nativity. I quite agree with my great-uncle David Hoover, when he says in his printed Memoir, that "there is a kind of indiscribable charm in the very name of my natal spot, very different from any that pertains to any other place on the globe." I certainly consider it a distinction as well as a piece of rare good fortune to have been born in Centerville. This view was not 3hared by my mother, who, a native of the Western Reserve in Ohio, was inclined to take exception to some of the Indiana people and customs. I recall that I was instinctively on my father's side In those little domestic word-tilts, and that I felt the case was closed when he referred to her as a native of "benighted Ashtabula." The great days are never repeated, of course, and the Centerville of the late sixties and early seventies exists only in the memory of those who knew and loved It. Surely no skies were ever so blue as those we saw through the branches of the apple trees in the orchard back of the old house on Main street. And how good and friendly the people were! Auntie Sense gave us milk by the gallon; we had no idea of any commercial side to the transaction it seemed as if. in sheer generosity, she just let us have all we wanted, and Auntie King supplied us with honey in the same bountiful way and Mother Barch with ginger cookies when 'we, went to her bakery at the other end of town. "We went o the Cumberland Pres byterlan Sunday school In the morn ing, where we received our first and only instruction in the Westminister Catechism and to the Methodist Sun day school in the afternoon, where Auntie Myers was our teacher. When our elders went off on the cars, Auntie Woods came and mothered us for weeks at a time. Society seemed like one great family; it was certainly idyllic and Utopian to the last degree to at least two children of that earlier day. "I remember well the removal of the county seat, and how belligerent even the younger members of society were My Impression is that the Richmond people came over after it once and went back disappointed, and then what rejoicing we indulged in! But this was soon turned to sorrow, and I recall sitting on the gate-post and see ing the wagons go by loaded with county records and documents. I also remember that, in the impotence of our rage, we made faces at those Richmond rowdies (as we heard them called) who only replied by hurrahs. hat was the one really gloomy day of my life in Centerville, and I can close my eyes now and feel the atmosphere of ruin and desolation that then pre vailed. The clouds soon lifted, for me, but there were those whose hearts never again beat as lightly as they had done before, and who carried to the grave traces of the vexation and sorrow caused by that event. Sometimes, when relatives or friends of my father's age came to see us they would falf to talking about when they were young, and even be tore they were born, and our eyes grew round and we drew closer to gether as we listened to stories of Indians and wild animals. One that especially appealed to us was about our grandmother, Rebecca Hoover Jul ian, riding on horse back at night, with a child behind her and one in her arms, to the Centerville block house, because she heard the whoops of the savages, and her husband was away In the war of 1S12. Think of bearing and rearing children amid such surroundings, and then let us doff our caps to the courage and real character of our ancestors, who made this beautiful western country what it Is. "I suppose Prof. Shortridge and oth ers present think that one who knew Centerville only within the past 40 years did not know it in its real glory at all. My memory does not go back to the old Whitewater college days but I think my first schooling was received within the walls of the college building. Miss Florence Brown was the teacher during the few weeks I attended, and gave me my first prize, for spelling a quaint pious little booklet issued by the American Tract society. But I was by no means so correct in deportment as the bestowal of this prize indicates that I wa3 in spelling; for I remember there was a poor, demented woman whose house ' we passed on our way to school and whom we children took the keenest delight in annoying. We would pound furiously oa her front door and then run around tha corner, tremblinjc with

HOBSON BLAMED FOR OKOMATATEMENT Said His Utterances at Democratic National Convention Are Responsible.

AMERICANS ARE INDIGNANT. DEEM IT UNFORTUNATE THAT SUCH A STATEMENT SHOULD BE MADE WHEN JAPAN IS PREPARING TO WELCOME FLEET. Tokyo, Aug. 15. Special dispatches from New York and London printed in Japanese newspapers represent that the recent utterance of Count Okuma attribute the naval expansion policy of the United States to the sud den rise of Japan to a world power, It is claimed that this utterance has caused a complete recrudescence of anti-Japanese sentiment throughout America. The New York newspapers are quot ed as editorially urging an AmericanChinese alliance for the purpose of off setting the belligerency of Japan. One newspaper is quoted as giving the views of Wu Ting Fang, Chinese minister to the United States, on the subject of an alliance, in which he threatens Japan with early evidence of the real power of the American navy. Americans residing In Japan are ex tremely indignant, and It is felt that it is particularly unfortunate that at this time anything should be permitted to retard the Increasingly friendly relations now that Japan is preparing to welcome the American fleet. Count Okuma is regarded here as a doctrinaire politician, who Is now completely without political influence except in academic circles. His state ment concerning the American navy and President Roosevelt's advocacy of its expansion was undoubtedly brought out by reports of Congressman Hobson's speech in the democrat national convention, when he quoted President Roosevelt as predicting an early war with Japan. excitement as she appeared brandish ing a long stick. '.'We also passed by the shop of Isaac Burbank and his wife Betsy. Mr. Burbank always sat in a chair by the door, and we thought it most interesting to hear the big bell sounding just above his head when it was time for him to go to dinner. It was at tached to a rope, the other end of which was back in the kitchen, thus saving his wfe the necessity of coming to the front, for he was very deaf and could not hear an ordinary call. "I remember Dr. Pritchett, Dr. King, Dr. WToods, Judge Kibbey and their families; also, very distinctly, the Gentrys', Blanche, Irene and Jenny, being my most intimate play-mates. remember Bob Carter and his bar ber shop. I remember the awe we experienced in- passing the jail, and how we always felt safer on the op posite side of the street. I recall the wonderful side walks, quite unique, as far as my experience goes, and I marvel that there were so few sprained ankles. I remember the quiet walks to the cemetery and the lovely drives in the rockaway, now Mr. Haynes livery barn. It was a dear old town and a dear old world, and am glad to have been even a small part of it. The remainder of the time was spent in reminiscences by various speakers. Among those who spoke were J. A. Commons, Judge Jackson, Miss Edmunds, Supt. Walker, Mrs. Frank Lamar, Mrs. Dazie Herzog and E. B. Bender. Their addresses were filled with Interesting details and were largely in regard to the "Old Regime." Interspersed throughout the program were several instrument al and vocal solos of much merit by Misses Mary Beck, Mabel Elwood, Olga Schreiner and Lou Jones. His Proper Place. During the dinner hour on board a steamer the other day a passenger was much disturbed by the vulgar way In which the man who sat next to him ate his meat. At last, after watching him pick a bone in a very primitive fashion, he could control his feelings no longer, and, turning to the offending party, he said, "Don't you think you would be more comfortable if you took that out on the mat?"

THE SCRAP

1 I V T T An Anticipative Burial. The ship doctor of an English liner notified the deathwatch steward, an Irishman, that a man had died In stateroom 45. The usual instructions to bury the body were given. Some hours later the body was still there. He called the Irishman's attention to the matter and the later replied: "I thought you said room 46. I wlnt to that room and noticed wan of thim in a bunk. 'Are ye dead? Bays I. 'No,' says he, 'but I'm pretty near dead.' "So I burled him." MORN. In what a strange bewilderment do we Awake each mom from out the brief night's sleep! Our struggling consciousness doth grope and creep Its slow way back, as if it could not free Itself from bonds unseen. Then memory. Like sudden llzht, outflashes from its deep The Joy or grief which it had last to keep For us. and by the Joy or grief we see The new day dawneth like the yesterday; We are unchanged, our life the same we knew Before. I wonder if this Is the way We wake from death's short sleep, to struggle through A brief bewilderment and in dismay Behold our life unto our old life true. Helen Hunt Jackson. Sort of a Reproach. A Yorkshire (England) farmer was asked to the funeral of a neighbor's third wife, and as he bad attended the funeral of the two others his own wife was rather surprised when he declined the invitation. On being pressed he gave his reason with some hesitation "Well, thee sees, lass, it makes a chap feel a bit awkward like to be alius accepting other folks civilities when he never has nowt o' t sooart of his awn to ax 'em back to." Not Worth the Offer. "I was standing out In front one night," said a theatrical manager, "when a ragged little urchin came along with a dog under his arm. The dog was a yellow cur of the mangiest variety I had ever seen. " 'Are you the manager of the show?' asked the boy. "I told him I was. " 'Well,' remarked the lad, 'I want to see the show, but I hain't got no money. I'll tell you what I'll do, I'll give you this dog if you'll let me in.' "I looked at the boy and then at the dog, and my heart melted. 'You can go on in, I said, 'but neyer mind giving me the dog. Take the dog along iu with you. "The lad went in with the yellow cur under his arm. After the performance I was standing out In front and happened to see the urchin come out ' 'Well, sonny,' I remarked, 'how did you like the show?' "'Oh, pretty well,' he said, 'but I'm awful glad I didn't give you the dog.' At the Milliner's. "Yes, I like the hat immensely, bnt I'm afraid my husband won't care for it." "But such a love of a hat, madam!" "Yes; I know. Oh, will you put it aside until tomorrow and I'll bring my husband in" "Impossible, madam. You had better take it now. It is much easier to get another husband than another hat like this one!" Woman's Home Com panlon. A Warm Corpse. Some Irish body snatchera had rifled a grave and hid their booty in, a corner of the churchyard when it occurred to a half tipsy fellow, who had been watching them unobserved, that it would be pleasanter to be driven back to the nearest town than to walk. He accordingly secreted the dead man under a hedge and lay down in his place. He was duly transferred to a cart, but when about half the Journey was over one of the men who had touched bis hand screamed to his friend, "Good heavens, the body 1j warm." Hereupon, In a deep voice, the sup posed dead man remarked, "If you had been where I've been for the last two days, you'd be warm too!" In a moment he was left In full possession of the vehicle! Sir M. E. Grant Duffs Diary. Peace on Earth. Have you ever thought seriously of the meaning of that blessing given to the peacemaker? People are al ways expecting to get peace In heaven But you know whatever peace they get there will be ready made. Whatever making of peace they can be blessed for must be on the earth here, not the taking of arms against but the build ing of nests amid its "sea of troubles (like the halcyons). Difficult enough, you think? Perhaps so, but I do not see that any of us try. We complain of the want of many things we want votes, we want liberty, -we want amusement, we want money. Which of us feels or knows that he wants peace? John Ru&kin. Willing to Compromise. About the middle of the civfl war a freshly appointed colonel with a newly enlisted regiment Joined the Federal forces in the far south. One morning word was received that a small detachment of General Wheeler's cavalrymen waa on the other side of the hill, and a force started out in pursu' . The next day the Confederates were reported miles distant in the opposite direction. The third day the new colonel and a veteran brigadier started out for a pleasure ride. A mile from camp they rode into the fugitive Confederates, who had been circling the cam; for a weelr. It was a narrow escape but they got away unharmed. After it was over the general said tc the colonel, "Well, what do you think of war now?" "Ia "Wheeler in this neighborhood much of the time?" replied the colo nel evasively. "All the time.

TTTTTtTtTTTTTtTTtTTI Sure of the Verdict. A thug with a political pull In New York waa indicted for stealing a truck load of hams. The trial came. Th evidence against the thief was over whelming. His lawyer leaned to hiui and whispered: 'You are a gone goose. There is nothing for me to do." But the prisoner replied: "Just you get up there, please, aud ; make a speech abusing all the wit nesses. Considering the size of your fee you lose heart pretty quickly." So the lawyer made a most abusive speech. But the judge summed up powerfully against the ham stealer. After an absence of five minutes, however, the jury brought in a verdict of "not guilty." "Well. I can't understand it," said the prisoner's lawyer as he left the court arm in arm with his client. "I can." said the other, with a calm smile. "Every man on that Jury had one of the hams." A Way They Have. A prominent eastern clergyman Is willing in marriago ceremonies to omit, whenever requested to, the ob noxious "to obey." One of this clergyman's parishioners took him to task about this matter. "What right have you.M he said, "to tamper with the marriage ceremony?" "Oh, well," laughed the minister, that 'obey is a dead letter anyway. The very best woman In the world promised to obey me eighteen years ago, but she hasn't to this day." Under Marshall Law. When James Watson Webb of New York made Tom Marshall of Kentucky a target for his editorial lance, he struck a tartar. Marshall challenged and Insisted upon a duel, which was fought near Wilmington. Del. The principals were stationed ten feet apart and exchanged shots without effect. Marshall insisted upon another shot, and both men fired simultaneously. Colonel Webb staggered, his seconds laid him on the ground, and the surgeon announced that he was wounded below the knee. ".That was the lowest act of my life," shouted Marshall. "Stand htm up again for another shot." But Webb was unable to stand. He was taken to a hotel, where he was laid up for several weeks, saying to his visiting friends, "I am confined to my bed under Marshall law." Truth and Bubbling Springs. Truth! Truth! There is nothing but truth. The spring of eternal youth Ponce de Ieon sought was truth, the spring which bubbles deep down In the heart of man though often never, never reached and has bubbled there from Adam to Washington, from Galilei to Marconi. With the elixir of truth the most sustaining of all the tonics man can never grow old. But he who gives himself to truth must not look for office, for riches or even for popularity. Louisville CourierJournal. Where They Keep Things. A New England clergyman was taking breakfast one Sunday morning In a hotel in a little western town. A rough old fellow across the table called over to him, "Goln to the races, stranger?" The clergyman replied, "I don't expect to." "Goln to the ball gamer "No." "Well, where are you goln'?" "I'm going to church." "Where do you come from?" "New England." "Oh. that explains It! That's where they keep the Sabbath and every other blamed thing they can lay their hands on." When Webster Dodged. When Daniel Webster was secretary of state our consul general at Shanghai, having on his hands a hundred or more refractory sailors and no prison, sent the whole lot to the native governor to be confined. They stayed there a.. little while and then. marched out of Home Tel. 2662
