FOOTBALL PLAYERS ORDERED TO REPORT

oach Vail of Earlham, Puts Men Through First Practice, Saturday. MANY OLD PLAYERS ARRIVE ARE ACQUAINTED WITH THE POPULAR COACH'S STYLE OF PLAYING SEVERAL NEW MEN TO ENTER SCHOOL. Saturday the first foot ball practice of the year at Earlham college will be indulged in. Bright and early on that date Coach will arrive here and at the same iJ about a dozen of his most promising candidates will put in an appearsince. The following have been' ordered to report Saturday: Harrell, Kokorao; Denham, Laporte; Wilson, Sheridan; Overman, Knightatown; lawrence, Bridgeport; Lindley, Mlddletown; White, Carthage; Stanley, Carthage; Swain, Uniondale; Walthal, Quaker; Hancock, Fairmount; Johnson, Fairmount. Nearly all of the above mentioned men are members of last year's team. Johnson is a new man and comes highlytouted. Overman was a student at Earlham last year, but this will be his first year in football. He is a big fellow and will probably make a splendid lineman. Earlham will lose three good men this year, Waon, Barrett and Thistlethwalte. Barrett was a guard while th other two played tackle. Vail has some excellent material to plug up the holes they leave. One of the most promising candidates for the team will arrive next week, Hines of Noblesville. He is a strapping big fellow. With the majority of the Earlham team veterans and acquainted with Vail' "tyle of play, there is no reason why the Quaker eleven should not be one of the beet in the state. Vail expects to have a squad of about thirty players on the field next week. The coupon books containing tickets for all the foot ball, basket ball, baseball and track meets to be held this seson by Earlham, have had a large sale. WILL CHALLENGE TEN ''Terrible Turk" Agrees to Put That Many Men to Mat In an Hour. INTEREST IN WRESTLING. here Isi, every reason to believe there will be a big crowd at the coliseum Friday night to witness the introduction of the wrestling game. The sport will be furnished by threo of the best wrestlers now in the country, Buch. the German champion, ?rindle of Indianapolis, and, the "Terrible, Turk." After the regular match at catch-as-catch-can between Buch and Prindle, the "Terrible Turk" will issue a challenge to the ten largest men in the audience to meet him.1 He will guarantee to put them all down In an hour. Tb match between Prindle and Buch promises to be a most hotly contested, one owing to the fact that the men, are so evenly matched, Buch in the one contest he has had with Prindle downed him once after four hours of strenuous struggle. Members of High School Board of Control Are Named. GOOD RESULTS EXPECTED. No longer will the question be wafted about the halla of the high school,- what became of the gate receipts for the last foot ball game? Yesterday a board of control of the athletlo association was elected. This board will have entire charge of the finances of the association and the result will be beneficial to the school and to athletics. - The board consists ! of three faculty members and three student members. The faculty mem- j belt tr Mr. Horton, Mr. Torrence and Miss Tallant The student members ar Ralph Brown, Blair Converse and Mis Mildred Kuhn. The toot ball team has been working bard at practice for several days and this evening at the public school play grounds the varsity line up against the scrubs for a scrimmage.

(By Tort.) ' It is 'stated that when the news reached Chicago of the double victory of the Cubs over the Giants, the old town looked like an interior view of a hopeless ward at the forget factory. A same condition of affairs existed at Cleveland when the Naps walloped New York and the wires brouglit the glad tidiugs of Boston's second victory over Detroit. The Cubs pennant stock went up about one hundred per cent yesterday. It was all doped out that the Gianns would win in a common canter. Today they only lead the Cubs six points. The introduction of the wrestling game in Richmond Friday night promises to be a success. The tickets to the event have had a big sale. Prindle and Buch arrived here today and both are magnificent specimens of well developed manhood. Jack Hayden, who helped win the flag for Indianapolis, is now performing the same mission for the Cubs. Yesterday Jack cracked out two hits in each game, three of them being WHO WILL WIN?

LL Various Sections in Middle West Were Visited Yesterday. DROUGHT YET DANGEROUS. Indianapolis, Ind., Sept. 23. Rain fell in many portions of Indiana yesterday, bringing greatly needed relief as the drought had extended for weeks. At Brazil th first shower since June 17 fell, but it did little more than lay the dust. The meadows and corn fields are burned up by the drought, and most of the wells have gone dry. At Worthington the fall was quite heavy. West Needs Rain. Chicago, Sept. 23. The drought in the Central states was broken yesterday by rains that extended from St. Louis to St, Paul and Minneapolis. The fall at Springfield, 111., and Decatur, HI., was vejry heavy. In Chicago scattered showers occurred late in the afternoon and evening, but the weather office declared that it did not presage general rain. The rain brought greatly needed relief In many parts of the West, where there had been but little precipitation since the first of August. Railroads Hit. Springfield, Ohio, Sept 23. "If there Is no relief soon there will be trouble," said Superintendent W. G, Bayley,, of the Big Four, speaking of the unusual drought. So far, he said, the water supply on the Cincinnati and Sandusky division was holding out well. However, on other lines water tanks are almost empty.

The Cleveland fans rely upon Liebhardt, Joss and Berger to win for them the American league bunting. Earlham will soon be in the throes of the football game. Soon we will be publishing the latest dope on injuries and that "Jones, tae gTeat half back is in splendid condition except for his broken neck." We have not as yet heard an echo from the challenge issued by the Q. & B. team to meet the Cambridge City Grays for the championship of Wayne county. We laughed right out loud last evening when we read on the score bor.rd that the Chicago White SoxPhiladelphia game at "Chi" had been postponed on account of rain. You've got to prove to us folke, Mr. Weather Man, that there really is such a thing as rain. We have heard our grandfathers talk about it, but their tales are regarded more or less as a myth. PHlfSICIANS PAY TRIBUTE TO GRANT Members of Wayne County Medical Society Adopt Resolutions. SYMPATHY IS EXTENDED. CORONER BRAMKAMP HAS NOT COLLECTED ALL EVIDENCE AND VERDICT IS WITHHELD IN SUICIDE CASE. A special meeting of the Wayne County Medical society was held yesterday afternoon at the court house for the purpose of paying a last tribute to the memory of one of the most respected and valued members of the organization, the late Dr. Geo. H. Grant, whose tragic death at his own hand, Monday, shocked the entire community. At this meeting Dr. D. W. Stevenson, Dr. Charles Marvel, Dr. C. S. Bond, Dr. ,T. Henry Davis, Dr. A. L. Bramkamp, Dr. J. M. Wampler, Dr. Roy Morrow and others made short addresses in which they eulogized their former brother physician. After voting to send flowers to the funeral and deciding to visit the Grant home this evening in a body, a committee composed of Dr. Harry Weist, Dr. T, Henry Davis and Dr. M. F. Johnston, was appointed to draft resolutions on the death of Dr. Grant The following was submitted by the committee: Whereas, In the course of human events we are called to mourn the death of an active member of our association and Whereas, During life his energies were devoted to the upbuilding of the society. Therefore, be it Resolved that in the death of Dr. George H. Grant the Wayne County Medical society has lost a valued member and one endeared by his personal qualities to the physicians with whom he had professional relation, and be it further Resolved, that our united sympathy be extended to the bereaved family and that they be presented with a copy of these resolutions. Verdict Not Rendered. Coroner Bramkamp has not yet rendered his verdict on the Grant suicide as he has not yet collected all his evidence but the verdict will probably find that the physician ended his life while delirious. APPROPRIATION TO MEET OPPOSITION Reid Memorial Hospital May Find Income Cut by Council. EXPENSES ARE TOO HEAVY. COUNCILMEN OBJECT TO CITIES AND TOWNS ACT BECAUSE OF EXTRA OFFICES CREATED AND SALARIES IT DICTATES. "Controller Parry's report on the financial condition of the city only convinces me more than ever municipal government under the towns and cities code Is too expensive." stated Councilman Englebert this morning. la this statement he probably reflects the opinion of every member of council. Council does not like to increase the tax rate, nor does it want to authorize the floating: of a 120.000 or $25,000 bond issue but It is convinced that it must make the choice of one of these two evils to meet next vears expenses and this year big deficit. Appropriations will be shorn down as low as possible and it was nlnted this morning that one of the appropriations which will probably go by the board is the $6,000 for the Reid Memorial hospital. The democratic ad Perfect Reprod action

ministration has always been opposed to this appropriation, on the ground that it was illegal because the hospital was not a public Institution, but council has always been the loyal frienl of the hospital. Monday night the finance committee of council will meet with, the board of public works and will reach some understanding in regard to the budget. At this meeting the fate of (he Reid Memcrial hospital will be decided. It is quite probable that the finance committee will oppose the 200 milk inspector appropriation on the ground that the city in its present financial condition cannot afford this expense. Some members of council resent the action of the metropolitan police commissioners in increasing the police force and increasing the salaries of the police officers. They feel that this action on the part of the commissioners was unwarranted. However, council under the metropplitan police law, is powerless to interfere with the commissioners.

BRYAN A CHASER . AFTER VAGUE IDEAS SAYS WM. H. TAFT (Continued From Page One) sled that the continuation of the gold standard meant uncertainty in employment of labor and hardship to the wage earner; that it would send down the price of farm products- wheat below 50 cents, corn below 30 cents, and oats to 5 cents. He did not haveto live two years to see every prophecy that he made in that campaign refuted by the fact. Adheres to Free Silver. Then came on the campaign of 1900. In that campaign he still adhered to his free silver fallacy, and still went about the country trying to explain why it was that the continuation of the gold standard had not resulted in the disasters which he had prophesied. But, lest the issue of free silver had become a little shop-worn, he brought out as a paramount issue that of antiimperialism. He announced that if he were not elected in the next election, patriotism would have ceased to be in this country, the celebration of the Fourth of July would become but a memory and that liberty would die. His agitation of this question continued the war in the Philippines against the United States for fully two years longer, and many a poor fell. who lost his life in the service of his country in those far distant islands owes it directly to the inspiration which the opposition of the democracy under Mr. Bryan, made to the policy of Mr, McKinley in the Philippines. He was beaten on these issues and we continue to celebrate the Fourth of July with fervor. At the end of the next four years Mr. Parker was nominated. Mr. Bryan still Insisted on inserting in the platform a clause in favor of free silver, but it was left out. He then joined with Mr. Parker in making the paramount issue the tyranny of Theodore Roosevelt, executive usurpation and militarism. He denounced Mr. Roosevelt as completely subject to corporate interests and held-up to the country the dangers of war to which it would be subject under a Roosevelt administration. Although the same policy was being pursued in the Philippines, as before, imperialism had ceased to be then a paramount issue. Warlike Prophecies Fail. The prophecies which Mr. Bryan made with reference to the warlike tendencies of Mr. Roosevelt and to his subjection to corporate influence he had only to wait, as he had to wait in previous instances when he made a prophecy, some two years to find them utterly refuted. For never in the history of the world has any chief executive had such a triumph in making peace as Theodore Roosevelt in the Russion-Japanese war, in Central America, in Santo Domingo and in Cuba, and never in the history of the country has there been such a complete triumph over corporate influence as that which the courage, the honesty and the persistence of Theodore Roose velt has wrought during the present administration. In the campaign of 1904 and in previous campaigns Mr. Bryan has denounced militarism and imperialism, but this year he was advised that the visit of our navy to the Pacific coast had aroused such an interest in the navy and had made it so popular on that coast that his Pacific friends persuaded him to approve a plank In the platform for an adequate navy for the protection of the Pacific coast. Just what he means by this is a little difficult. What the republican party means it is clear. It means an increase in the present forces of the navy, and yet, with characteristic Inconsistency, Mr. Bryan, as already said, attacks the republican party for making suitable appropriations for the increase of our naval force. Bryan Goes Around the World. In 1906 Mr, Bryan went around the world and his return was heralded with the statement that in his visit around the world he had so gained in formation and knowledge that he had become safe and sane; that he was a conservative and all the democratic party awaited his coming with great interest. Immediately upon his arrival 'he dispelled this erroneous impression by declaring that he was convinced that the only solution of the railroad prohlem ultimately would be government ownership. He has previously declared in favor of a national initiative and referendum and also in favor of the election of federal judges. All these most radical propositions THE PALACE

have now been excluded from the democratic platform. They do not meet such popular approval as. to justify their being brought forward as a meatus of acquiring office in this campaign, but they illustrate the character of tie man who proposes them, ! they show the instability and variability of his views, and they justify the fear that so many people of this country have In respect io tne Ganger to which the public weal may be exposed should he be put at the helm of the pilot. And now, while the record of promises and prophecies, unfulfilled for a period of twelve years, with this record of a hunt for an issue upon which to achieve the presidency, with this record of repudiation, of negation and of running away from national responsibilities, Mr, Bryan comes forward and asks that the people now give him an opportunity to put into operation new reforms In respect to trusts and in respect to guarantee of bank deposits, wholly untried, wholly theoretical, and on their face bearing evidence of their impracticability and of having been devised by the ready brain of one looking for plausible arguments rather than real reforms. Lukewarm on Postal Savings, He only in a qualified way approves the postal savings banks recommended by the republican platform, which is a tried and proved means of encouraging the wage earner and small farmer to make deposits In a bank absolutely secure;' but much prefers a system which takes man's money to pay another man's default, and which, instead of strengthening our banking system, will break it down by destroying the value of the banking character and experience and capital and offering inducements to Teckless and speculative bankers without character or capital. The record of Mr. Bryan and bis character, as it is understood by a twelve years' acquaintance with him, have impressed the business community of this country and those whose judgment determines whether or not capital shall be invested that he is not a safe man with whom to try experiments in government; that he loves financial theories that are full of soph istry and are impractical; that he advances propositions with but little sense of responsibility as to what they may be, carried out in practice, and that he gives but little attention to the welfare of the conservative business community in his suggestions of re- ! form. Certainly his record justified this judgment of him by the business men. If he were to be elected because of his record, however much now he may seem to pose as a conservative because of his record, because of the failure of the theories which he has proposed for the last twelve years his election win mean a paralysis or Business, and we should have a recurrence of the disastrous business condition of the last democratic administration.
