SCOUT SECURES POLLY PLAYS

Earlham Sends Man Into the Camp of Enemy to Secure Information. TWO TEAMS CLASH TODAY. EARLHAM NOT EXPECTING TO WIN BUT HOPES TO HOLD TERRE HAUTE TEAM TO A LOW 8C0RE. By Tort. The Earlham football team left this morning for Terre Haute where it will meet the fast Rose Poly team this afternoon. The eleven was given a rousing Bend oft and was told to fight the enemy until the last ditch. Confidence In the Quakers winning the contest is way below par, but the Earlham Btudent body expects the eleven to hold Rose to a low score. All this week the Quakers practiced Rose formations, which were secured about two weeks ago by Hancock, one of the hospital squad, who made a scouting trip to Terre Haute. Coach Vail is confident that his men will be able to break up the Rose plays, unless Clark has introduced some new ones. All this week the scrubs practiced Rose formations, especially forward passes, quarter back runs and double passes. - These were hard for the regular to solve at first, tmt Thursday ana Friday the 'varsity succeeded In breaking up the Rose attack In a very creditable manner. "Big" Macey, tackle on Earlham's '04 championship team, has been coaching the linemen all week, and as a result of fils able Instruction the play of the forwards has improved greatly. The men have been charging low and hard and have been successfully stopping the scrub's attack. STEELE PLAYS HIGH Two Strong Elevens Clash This Afternoon at Public School Grounds. ALLISON IS NOT PLAYING. ,By Tort.. High school is taking the field this afternoon against the Steele high school of Dayton with its strongest lineup, and the Red and White rooters are sure of victory. When Steele arrived here this morning It was greeted by a band of eleven pieces. These Instruments were tooted by enthusiastic members of the high school orchestra. What they lacked in harmony was more than made up by noise. Allison, the crack halfback of the local eleven, is not in the game this afternoon on account of a sore arm, but his place is being taken by Shaffer, who is regarded as a "find."' , Shaffer is new at the game, but has been playing brilliantly in practice. He is as fast and nervy as Allison and has the added advantage of being heavier. Allison, It was thought, would be missed, because he Is one of the best high Echool players in the state.

CHARLEY OLSON LOSES CONTEST Decision Given Americus Because of Indianapolis Man's Rough Work. POLICE INTERFERED TWICE BALTIMORE FANS SEE COMBINATION OF WRESTLING AND PRIZE FIGHTING IN BOUT FOR LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP. Baltimore, McL, Nov. 7. Gus Schonlein, "Americus' champion . lightheavyweight wrestler,' last night won from Charles Olson, of Indianapolis, on a foul. The affair wound up in a regular prize fight. . After Americus had won the first fall Olson started rough house tactics, and hit Americus in the nose, forcing him off the mat, and the police had to interfere. The westerner was given another chance and rushed at Americus, grabbed him by the throat and butted him in the eyes with his head and used the knee to the groin. It took the combined efforts of a dozen policemen to pull him off and Referee Tim Hurst gave the bout to Americus. The men came together at 9:55, and exactly 121-4 minutes later Referee Tim Hurst tapped Americus on the shoulder, indicating that he had won the first fall. When the men came on the mat the westerner wriggled out of a half Nelson and became the top man. The champion remained the bottom man until the finish. Olson tried hammer-locks, half-Nelsons and leg holds, but Americus broke every hold of his adversary with the utmost ease. After eleven minutes of wrestling Olson had a hammerlock, which Americus, after having one shoulder pinned to the mat, broke and became the upper man. It was here that Americus demonstrated his ability as a wrestler while in a sitting position, throwing his left arm back, getting a half-Nelson on his adversary and pinning Olson's right shoulder to the mat he worked back with his hip and forced the other shoulder to the mat.

SHIRLEY AGAIN ' HAS BIG FIRE Large Creosoting Plant Is Burned. Anderson, Ind., Nov. 7. A large creosoting plant owned by the Big Four Railroad, at the intersection of two divisions of the Big Four at Shirley, 16 miles south of this city, was burned. Shortly after 10 o'clock last night people of Shirley appealed to this city for help and one company of the Fire Department was rushed to Shirley by special train. The wells are dry at Shirley and the fire was fought by other means. Two weeks ago Shirley suffered a $150,000 fire In the business section of the town and two lives were lost. W01D EXPECTED TO PLEAD NOT GOILTY Thought He Would Be Arraigned Today. , The state's attorney expected to arraign W. G. Wood, charged with passing a fraudulent check, in the Wayne circuit court this afternoon. ( Wood was expected to enter a plea of not guilty. The man induced Alph Collet to cash a worthless check. Was Given Fine. Wood was fined $100 and costs on a charge of making a false statement. He went to jail. ASSAOLTED WIFE; IS jIVEN A FINE Edward Brannon Convicted Today. For assault and battery upon his wife Mary, Edward Brannon was fined $25 and costs in city court this afternoon. The Brannons reside on Ridge street. The testimony was to the effect Edward went home last evening in a quarrelsome mood. He had been drinking and soon took exceptions to his wife. He struck her twice with his fists, cursed her and choked her violently. She screamed for help. Mrs. Brannon said her husband had been drinking all summer, but was unusually severe last evening. The arrest was made by McNally. Stories of tke GraTediarsrers. Grimly humorous is the tale of the gravedigger who complained that he did not get constant work. "But, George," said the minister, "if you were to be constantly employed in the duties of the office you would soon bury the whole parish." "That micht be, sir, but hoo am I to keep a wife and family unless I get regular work? 'Deed, sir, I havena buried a leevln' soul for the last six weeks." Harder still was the case of another graredigger who was asked to reduce his fee for digging a grave because, "mind ye, James, she was an auld woman and was sair spent." Chicago Tribune.

The peculiar business methods of oriental merchants are illustrated by th manner of buying rubies in Burma, says the Jewelers' Circular-Weekly. In the examination of rubies artificial light is not used, the merchants holding that full sunlight alone can bring out the color and brilliancy of the gems. Sales must therefore take place between 9 a. m. and S p. m., and the sky must be clear. The purchaser, placed near a window, has before him a large copper plats. The sellers come to him one by one, and each empties upon this plate his little bag of rubies. The purchaser proceeds to arrange them for valuation In a number of small heaps. The first division Is into three grades, according to size. Each of these groups is sgain divided into three piles, according to color, and each of these piles is again divided into three groups, according to shape. The bright copper plate has a curious use. The sunlight reflected from it through the stone brings out with true rubies a color effect different from that with red spinels and tourmalines, which are thus aslly separated. The buyer and seller then go through a very peculiar method of bargaining by signs, or, rather, grips, in perfect silence. After agreeing upon the fairness of the classification they Join their right hands, covered with a handkerchief or the flap of a garment, and by grips and pressures mutually understood among all these dealers they make, modify and accept proposals of purchase and sale. HYPOCRITE AND VILLAIN. The Geatle Torses a Plays;or Osot Applied to Vorreat. A number of professional men were exchanging reminiscences of Edwin Forrest, the great tragedian. One of them told the story of Forrest's experience in the west, which was not only of interest in itself, but also a tribute to the art of the actor. The play was "Virginius," and Forrest was at his best In the scene where he slays his daughter the audience was almost stricken with awe, and not a sound was heard until the scene was concluded, after which the artist was greeted with overpowering applause. In the following act Virginins comes on the stage looking worn and distracted. The reaction has set in, he is frenzied over the loss of his daughter, and he walks up and down, crying out: "Virginia, Virginia! Where is my child T' An old miner, who occupied a front row in the orchestra and who had been terribly wrought up by the murder scene, could stand this no longer and. arising in his place, shouted out in loud tones, freighted with intense Indignation: "Why, you old villain, you killed her in the market house in the last act. You know it well enough. You are a hypocrite as well as a villain." The laughter and applause that greeted this unexpected turn in the performance made it necessary to ring down the curtain. Harper's Weekly. Tae Blameless One. Mrs. Colburn removed her outer garments and seated herself with a thud in her rocking chair in the front window. "I declare, I never saw such a gadder as that young woman the minister married In all my life!" she said jerkily as she ran her darning ball down into the heel of Mr. Colburn's j gray stocking. I I can't go over to Mis' Deacon ; Graves' of an afternoon or down to the store in the morning that I don't either find her there or see her, coming or going, three times out o' five! "She's an awful starer, too," continued Mrs. Colburn, pulling at a knot In her darning cotton till it broke and her elbow flew back against the sharp edge ; of the table. "I can't look over at her J front window but what she turns her eyes this way inside o five minutes. Don't sit there looking so numb, William! Can't you see I've half killed njyseltl .Fetch me the liniment, quick F"

Eric E. Matchette Chosen Officer of Big Investment Company. FORMER RICHMOND MAN. Unusual recognition has been Rained by Eric E. Matchette, a former resident of this city. Mr. Matchette has been elected vice president of the Orthwein. McCrum Investment company, the name of which concern has been changed to the Orthwein, Matchette Company. It is located at Kansas City and handles bonds, stocks and investments. The rise of Mr. Match-, ette in the financial world has appeared the phenominal. He is one of the best known men of Kansas City, and is connected actively with its most and social nature. THE DEVILFISH. How These Monsters Are Caught In the Gulf of Mexico. There is no more thrilling sport than harpooning the devilfish, the giant ray or manta, which has Its home in the gulf of Mexico. Some of these fish, which are very grewsome to behold, measure from twelve to eighteen feet and weigh more than 1,500 pounds. It requires tremendous skill to harpoon them and infinite tact to land tbem once they are struck. It is not unusual for the fish to run for three hours or more, and they can tow a ten ton sloop. The fish Is wily and will often go to the bottom to rest, to prevent which he has to be kept in a constant state of panic by hauling the tow in close to him. At a moment of weakening another harpoon and a rifle shot will dispatch him. During a recent run it was three hours before the cable could be fastened to the boat's windlass in order to pull the devilfish under the bow. where another lily iron was secured in him. and then followed a rush of extraordinary impetuosity. Following this method and only after there were three harpoons in his back and a shark hoop attached to one flipper was it felt that he was secure. Half an hour later his struggles were finally stilled by a lucky rifle shot in the head. As night came on the sharks began to come in and long after dark could be heard fighting over the stranded carcass. Illustrated London News. MOST EXCLUSIVE CLUB. English Joy That There Is On Door Riohes Won't Unlock. The Royal Yacht squadron is probably the most exclusive club In existence, says the London Gentlewoman, and, wonderful to relate in this plutocratic age, money is quite powerless to unlock the charmed portals of the castle. One or two millionaires with splendid yachts have tried in vain to pass the ordeal of the periodical ballot, while men of no fortune or only just enough to defray the upkeep of a small yacht have been elected without an idea of a black ball. The only apparent qualification is that the candidate must possess a yacht of his own, but there are other qualifications much more difficult of attainment by the man of money, and it is just here that the question of blackballing comes In, it must be owned, rather refreshingly. For really one bad almost said that there is no social "holy of holies" Into which he who is rich cannot penetrate until one recalls the pleasant circle of gentlemen who go to make up the Royal Yacht squadron. There is, one remembers gratefully, Just one institution left to which the mystic words "I am rich" do not have the effect of an "open sesame." The Deep Breathing Cure. A boy who was consumptive and was rapidly going along the road to the grave was taken in hand by one who understood deep breathing and the importance of proper mastication of food, etc. He was made to understand precisely why deep breathing was of such vital importance, and he took a lively interest in his own cure He was fourteen years old. In a very few weeks the change was remarkable. He began to get firm flesh on his poor little limbs, his chest developed well and a healthy color came Into his cheeks. His eyes, which were always covered with sties, became perfectly free from them, and in three months or less there was no sign of consumption in him. I may say he was only treated once a week foi half an hour. Pall Mall Gazette. Truly Rustic Bridge. A rustic bridge at Beach Haven.
