BEAR STORY FROM HIGH SCHOOL CAMP Team May Be Crippled Play-, ers Angry.

There is trouble in the camp of the high school football team. The other day Coach Roy Horton took Quarterback Cox off the varsity and put him with the scrubs. Spangler was given Cox's job. The placing of Clox with the scrubs did not please the regulars and they let out a howl, but Horton informed them he was running the team and he would run It to suit himself. Cox has quit the team and Wann and Hobson, two of the star men, state they are going to leave school and go to work. If they take this action tne team will be badly crippled. SHORT SPEECH TAFT ANSWERS THE FORAKER CHARGES (Continued From Page One.) he rode on was provided for by the Middle Bass club, whose guest he was at the time. Taft's principal speech at Minnea polis was in favor , of postal savings banks, and in opposition to the Bryan theories regarding government guar antee of bank deposits. After the speech Mr. Taft was hurried into an automobile and taken to the home of F. B. Kellogg before com ing to Minneapolis. Mr. Taft received a, great ovation when he arrived in Minneapolis. He was met at the union station by several republican or ganizations and escorted to the auditorium through crowded streets. A light drizzle fell all evening, but fully 4,000 persons waited outside for two hours until Taft appeared to 6peak to the overflow . meetings before addressing the crowd within the auditorium, and made two short talks. The candate's voice was so husky he could scarcely be heard. ' Taft will spend a comparatively quiet day tomorrow. In the forenoon he speaks at the St, Paul Y. M. C. A., and In the evening he will make an address from the pulpit of the Fowler M. E. church In Minneapolis. The Taft party will continue its northwestern invasion Monday, when the special train leaves this city at 5 o'clock.' : .' MINISTER AND SALOONIST WARWORK TOGETHER (Continued From Page One.) ; Marshall for governor, rather than Watson"? Final answer will not come until November 3. Two .Towns With Saloons. The county option law will become effective as soon as the acts of the special session are proclaimed. This is expected to be some time this week." If the temperance forces in Wayne county intend to enter the fray there need be no delay It ia declar ed. At the present time there are but two townships Jackson and Wayne, which permit saloons. In all other townships they have been remonstrate ed out, or no one has the temerity to undertake to procure a license. The saioons in inese two townsmps are confined to Richmond, Cambridge City and East Germantown. But the booze emporium at the latter place is existing only through the leniency of the prosecuting attorney. , It is understood this bar will be closed with the expiration of the license. This leaves only Cambridge City and Richmond in which the temper ance forces will find any real-for-sure opposition. In these two places this opposition will be of the deadliest kind. The men engaged in the liquor business will fight to the last , ditch and as they claim die fightirfg. It will be purely a question of the ma jority, which is 5,335 votes. City Fight Probabfe. There Is reason to believe that in the event of failure to vote Wayne county dry, saloons in Richmond will not be Immune from the direct antag onism of the temperance crowd. Greater stress than ever will be brought to take advantage of the Moore law. At this time this law bars saloons from the Seventh, Eighth, Sixth and south half of the Fifth wards. Falling to secure county prohibition, the temperance element probably would turn its attention to the campaign in this city and try to have other wards take advantage of the Moore law. Truly the future of the Wayne county saloonlst will be set with difficulties. Football Results At Carlisle, Pa. Carlisle Indians. 10; Villa Nova, 0.

GENERAL INTEREST 111 MASS MEETING

Large Crowd Expected at Anti-Saloon Celebration This Afternoon. PROGRAM IS ANNOUNCED. PRESIDENT ROBERT L. KELLY WILL PRESIDE AND MINISTERS VILL DELIVER ADDRESSESLARGE AUDIENCE EXPECTED. General interest has been manifested in the mass meeting which will be held at the First English Lutheran church at 3 o'clock this afternoon to cele-

brate the victory of the temperance talk today to the effect that the govforces in seceuring the passage of the j ernor was preparing to send a warm local optoin bill by the state legisla-! mesage to the senate and house with

ture. Indications last night pointed to an audience that will pack the church. Greater interest has been shown by the public in the fate of this measure at the special session than in any other bill which has come before the legislature In many years. The anti-saloon league workers believe the suc cess of the measure is in large part due to their aggressiveness and are of the firm opinion their meeting this afternoon will be in the nature of a cele bration of a deserved victory. President R. L. Kelly of Earlham college, will preside. The devotional exercises will be conducted by the Rev. Conrad Huber, of St Paul's Lutheran church'. Addresses will be delivered by the Rev. H. R. Keates, of the South Eighth street Friends' church and the Rev. R. H. Dunaway, pastor of the Second Presbyterian hcurch. The Rev. Mr. Huber Is one of the leading members of the Anti-saloon league and probably is Its most aggressive work er In this city. It was tnrough his in fluence that President Shumaker, of the Anti-saloon league came to this city about a year ago and delivered the address in which he advocated county local option. The Rev. Mr. Keates is president of the ministerial association of this city. Besides the address, there will be a musical pro gram. LANTERN OVERTURNS; BARNjSCONSUMEO Fire Department Called to the Home of Wm.. Spaulding. Fire originated from an overturned lantern consumed a barn on the prem ises of William Spaulding, the gard ener, east of the city on the National road. The loss is estimated at $500. The structure was entirely consumed. The local fire department was called upon for assistance and the chemical truck responded. There was not water supply for the hose and the members of the company and the neigh bors formed a bucket brigade and protected the residence and other buildings. Hub But if you like the young fellow, Kate, why do you object to our daughter marrying him? h Wife Oh, she'll marry him for all that but I want to give her a chance to say when they quarrel that "mother didn't want me to marry yon, anyway. Boston Transcript. DEMOCRATS BLOCK PROPOSAL TO END SPECIAL SESSION (Continued From Page One) . tlon was heard In the house. Freuchtenlcht, democrat, of Ft. Wayne, argued earnestly against the resolution speaking of Solomon and other an cient philosophers and also the stat utes. He roasted the Columbia Club, of Indianapolis, and the Wayne club of his own city, as places where one could get a drink at all hours In the day Or night Edwards, majority floor leader, made an effort to put an end to the resolu tion by having it referred to a com mittee of lawyers of the house to ex amine Its constitutionality which he said was at least doubtful. His motion was tabled. Through the effort of Honan, minority leader. Condo Explains. Condo, Republican chairman in the ways and means committee, and deposed floor leader, argued for the reso lution. He had voted against the local option bill in the belief, he said, that the question should be decided at the polls and now he voted for this resolution since It provided for an expression In the people's wishes. j Downey and Honan made similar ) speeches, each of them roasting the j republicans for their alleged change; of attitude. Honan said, "I said this morning there isn't much in a name. This afternoon's proceedings verify my statement That sweet sounding sweet scented term 'Breweryites has been transferred from this side of the house to the other." Altogether the democrats had lots of fun out of the situation and the majority side joined in the merriment Among those who voted for the resolution was Speaker Branch. . Hospital Matter Monday. The speaker then handed down the senate bill approving the contract between the state and Pulse & Porter, the contratcors who succeeded X. M.

Campfleld on the Southeastern Hospital for the Insane Job. This was the

test of whether or not the the demo-j crats would help to adjourn sine die ; and end the session. Cravens, demo-, crat of Jefferson county urged, the other democrats to do this, but they were unwilling. They voted against suspension of the rules, and the necessary two-thirds was not obtained. This means the bill will be read on second reading Monday, - and on third and final reading Tuesday. The other administration bills were then read and referred to committees. Dally of. In. dianapolis remarked, "It is evident the legislators wish to spend Sunday In our beautiful city," moved that adjournment be taken until Monday af-, ternoon. This was done. j University Bill Drags. i Thus far nothing whatever has been done to advance the Vincennes university bill, that is the bill desired by the governor to repeal the bill of last ses- 1 sion voting $120,000 to the university in payment of an old claim.- It has never been introduced In the senate and is slumbering soundly In the house commltee. There was a great deal of regard to the university bill, but the message did not materialize. Another thing that did not materialize, was a resolution prepared by Senator Stephenson of Fulton county condemning in strong language, the attitude of the governor In the Vincennes matter. Stephenson is a republican. He decided after talking to other republicans in senate conference today that he would not offer his resolution, although he had it drawn up. It Is regarded as entirely unlikely that the governor will be able to obtain any action with reference to the Vin-j thsa wishes he can take the matter his belief that the bill should not have passed at the last session, but they refuse to help him repeal It. The only thing he can do they say Is to sign i the bonds, which it calls for and if be into court ' court. Senate Busy Saturday. All the administration bills those for appropriations and those for Night Riders protection were passed by the senate during the time that the house was fighting the option battle. The Bland bill allowing coal miners to Increase the size of their drills from 24 to 3 inches, was also passed. The senators had a routine session, which was enlivened only by the cheers that came across the corridors from where the representatives were passing the option bill. The democrats put up perfunctory opposition to the measures and voted against some of them. They Insisted that most of the appropriations were unnecessary. The Night Rider bill giving the governor power to organize a secret constabulary and appropriating $10,000 for the work, passed by a vote of 29 to 11. This bill originally appropriated $15,000 to be used by the governor. But the republicans In conference reduced the amount by $5,000 and provided that not the governor, but the state board of finance, com posed of the governor, auditor of state and treasurer of state, should have disposition of the money. This was regarded as a slap at the governor. The Night Rider bill, making the malicious cutting of tobacco a felony and establishing penalties for threats and Intimidation, passed by a vote of 29 to 10. Seven Against Paying Expenses. The appropriation of $40,000 to cov er the expenses of the session, which had already been passed in the house, carried by a vote of 38 to 7. Senator Hugg joined with six democrats In voting against it Senator Kistler, of Cass and Pulaski, said he took pleasure In voting against the measure, in asmuch as the special session had not done the people of the state a bit of good. Several republican senators asked him if he intended to return to the state his per diem that the expen ses might thereby be reduced. me democrats withheld support from the bill legalizing the contract with Pulse & Porter for the construction of the Southeastern Indiana hospital for the insane, on the ground that they did not know what the contract consisted of and whether It was a good one. The vote was 34 to 14. Senator Stephenson (Rep.) voted with thirteen democrats. The bill providing against the reversion of unexpended balances of specific appropriations to the general fund passed by a vote of 32 to 13. The democrats voted against the bill on the ground that there was no danger of the balances lapsing. They explained that the appropriation act contained specific provision against reversion. r Moore & Ogborn Insurance, Bonds and Loans. Real Estate and Rentals. Both phones. Bell 53R. Homt t589.

THE THEATER

"Paid In Full." at Gennett. On October 9, at the Gennett theater the Wagenhals and Kemper production of "Paid in Full" will be presented. This play contains four great acts and was written by Eugene Walter. For his theme Mr. Walter has taken a great moral issue In our American life, and his treatment, development and characterization is said to be stamped with an amazing candor and frankness. Cut and dried rules for! play writing have been cast aside and he has proceeded on the belief that red blood, bone and sinew of which we of this world are constituted, our thoughts, deeds and emotions form a pretty fair basis for a play. Mr. Walter makes a determined attack and the unusual aspect of his own play has won him success. In part the theme of "Paid In Full" may be described as delicate, but the author deals with It truthfully and naturally. His ' dialogue is the understandable vocabulary of the hour and he has adroitly knitted together a most consistent chain of incidents. In the character of Joseph Brooks he ha3 an individual with socialistic tendencies and withal an egotist. His heart Is filled with sullen hatred because his employer does not favor him in the wage matter as generously as he does ether workers and in a moment of recklessness he becomes an embezzler and then sets up his wife and himself in a lavishly appointed apartment In an effort to win back part of his stolen gains he 'plays the ponies' and goes deeper Into the mire with the Inevitable result, discovery. In Brooks, Mr. Walter has written a wondious character; likewise in the persons of Captain Williams, Jlmsy Smith and Emma Brooks, characters so natural and lifelike as to be wholly unusual. The play throughout the entire four acts adheres to the original theme wondrously well. The production is complete In every detail and the cast interpreting the play is a brilliant one. "Paid In Full" last smmer enjoyed a run of five months at the Grand Opera House, Chicago, and is still attracting brilliant audiences at the Astor theater, New York, where It has been seen for the past two seasons. The engagement here will be a notable one and will attract the most brilliant audience of the season. "Three Twins" Gennett "Three Twins" direct from a four months run in Chicago and eight months triumphant sojourn at the Herald Square theater, New York, will be the attraction at the Gennett theater October 5. Jos. M. Gaites is said to have given his great musical comedy success ' a superb company headed by Victor Morley and a magnificent stage setting. i Much interest centers in this play owing to the fact of its being a reviv al of "Incog," which theatergoers of a decade will recognize In Its new musical drees. This famous old farce of Mrs. Pacleo's had In Its cast surrounding the star, Charles Dickson, such well known actors as Louis Mann, Robert Edeson, Harry Davenport, Clara Liotnan, EHen Berg and Lillian Burkhardt It is seldom that as clever a play as Tneog finds its way into musical comedy and It was fortunate Indeed that It was particularly well fitted for musical adaptation, so that unlike other changes of this nature it has Improved Instead of suffering by the adaptation, i "Three Twins", abounds In many striking novelties, among them being: "The Merry-Go-Round," "The Seven Ages of Cuddling," "The Crying Grass Widow," "The Hypnotic Kiss, "The Awe-Inspiring ' Yama, Yaraa Man and "The Mysterious Face." which is bound to prove a sensation to ef en the most blase theater goer. ,

"Three Twins" is equipped with some of the best lyrics and most beautiful music that has been heard for a long time. The lyrics are by Otto Hauerbach and the . music by Karl Hoschna and every one of the numbers including: "Boo Hoo, Tee Hee.M "Little Miss Up-to-Date," "The Girl Up There," "Hypnotic Waltz," "All My Girls." "In Cloudland." "Good Night, Sweetheart. Good Night," "Cuddle up a Little Closer, Lovey Mine" and "Yaroa Yama Man" is a distinct hit The last two numbers achieving a success that Is positively phenomenal. Some of the members of the old cast will be retained, among them being Ray and Victor Morley who will play Mr." Dickson's old part Chauncty Oleott Gennett Chauncey Oleott in "Ragged Robin" will be the attraction at the Gennett theater October 9. This latest success of Mr. Oleott Is by Rida Johnson Young in collaboration with Rita Ol eott, and is without doubt the most Intensely Irish play he has appeared in for many years. The authors have caught the Celtic atmosphere as few writers on this side of the Atlantic have ever done and infused it in the story most cleverly. Telling a love story in Irish peasant life, they have delicately woven in the treasured folk lore of the Celt, giving the whole a characteristic flavor that has been sadly lacking In Irish drama of late years. Mr. Oleott has written several capital songs for "Ragged Robin,' Which will doubtless be whistled around the streets the day after he appears here. The scenery particularly that which is used in illustrating the fairy portion of the story is unusually beautiful and with a number of ex quisite elfin costumes, almost raises the production to the plane of a fairy

VaudvlH New Phillies. Two real, classy, headliners. That Is the program at the New Phillips the coming week. For one, Billy Butts has come to town, with Sperry and Ray, whose creation has spread its tame throughout tho broad land. Billy Butts Is a unique character with a seat la the hall of fame with Josh White and Mr. Dooley. His sayings and his snicy flow of Americanised English will surely outlive the brief . week of the bill's stay. Miss Ray is a delightful actress and doesn't have to depend altogether on her make up to please, for she is herself pleasing. Especially warm, have been the press notices she has received. The other headliner is Edwin Adair with his four girls. Where he has been nothing more is necessary than to mention his name, and everyone knows yon are talking about pretty girls. This little bevy of blushing maidens is said to have the crimp on most anything seen here in the line of stage beauty for a long time. Oa Thursday, Friday and Saturday these girls will wear sheath gowns nd the directoire never faila to fill the front seats. , But not to give the impression that Billy Butts and pretty girls are all that you can see at the New Phillips, let it be said, that Mark and Laura Davis, the inimitable will give their delightful' little German dialect skit. "Hans the Grocery Boy" and beside this, Eddie Moon, officially patented as the "Kid with the Wagon'? has stunts of a surprising line to spring on the crowd when the curtain goes up.
