Furthermore, he announces that any one who engages in it will be immediately dismissed from that institution. This is a little strong. In as much as the night riders of the tobacco district invariably start out with the intention of doing some one material and bodily injury, while ou the other band the college boy usually means to do no harm to his fellow student and in the exuberance of youth sometimes does. The motives are entirely different. As tome one said, there is a distinct analogy, however, in the two. Both are bodies of men who have strength far beyond their wisdom and discretion and they use that strength unwisely. It is also true that the ignorant night riders do not consider their actions criminal, but heroic, but so did the participants in the Whiskey Rebellion who were put down in the back woods of the state of Pennsylvania in the first beginnings of our government by federal troops. It simply means that if hazing is brutal and cowardly it, too, will have to go. In the larger eastern universities hazing has gone and not by any rules which have been passed, but simply because it was not thought worthy of the university to indulge in it, and because the freshmen were not fresh. It has been replaced by a somewhat npnBensical frigidity of the upper classes toward the lower , which achieves the object which hazing is supposed to do. And so it is that for the most part, hazing remains only in the fresh water institutions. It is worth while to consider the method of the officers in charge of the United States Naval Academy in this matter.' Hazing has for the most part been done away with (much to the disgust of the Junior Officers, who grew up under the system) by the simple process of making the very things which the upper classmen attempted j to enforce, part of the regulations. No 1 longe can the plebe walk on Lovers' Lane and sit on the bench which the Academy regulations reserve for the upper classmen. The rule works and It has a good effect on the fourth class. It leaves no excuse for haziug. And so it comes about that when the material in the colleges does not need hazing, or when the college itself in a much Juster way gives to the upperclassmen certain inalienable rights, hazing is done away with. Those are the only two solutions of the problem. For hazing, where it only takes the swelled head attitude out of the boy who has just come up from prep school or high school, where he has been the only and original, or from the family which has been revolving round him, is a useful and a good thing. If ihese things were enforced or otherwise taken care of by the proper authorities and not left to the well meaning and misguided efforts of . the students, the college atmosphere would be a little clearer. It is doubtful whether hazing any more than any thing else can be prohibited by the blue laws. A GOOD RACE. In all the campaign, the most interesting single race in this state was the one made by the Rev. Thomas Kuhn. Altogether, considering the odds under which he ran, and the questions involved, it was almost spectacular. It was a contrast to the race made by the genus of lame ducks" of both parties all over the country. Consider for a minute the republicanism of the "old burnt" district. For years it has been as impregnable as the celebrated rock of Gibraltar. Consider also that Mr. Kuhn is not a politician in the ordinary acceptance of the term. Consider again that he is in the democratic party, almost alone in his lack of backing from that wily and gentlemanly politician of politicians, Mr. T. Taggart. Consider that almost without exception, any votes that Kuhn got in this district were personal votes then you will see that it really was a race In which there were unusual points of interest ' A few figures are rather cnlighten-
lng. A few years years ago in the ' race against the Hon. James E. Watson, Mr. Kuhn received 20.C2D votes against hia opponent's 22,135. At that
time it was said by Mr. Watson's political enemies in the republican party, that this was owing almost entirely to the record and personality of Mr. Watson himself. Now, that sounded very well at that time, and there was nothing to disprove it, although there were many of Mr. Watson's friends who had the feeling that the result was on account of the ability of Mr. Kuhn and was not entirely due to the shortcomings (if there were any) of Watson. It is interesting to compare that race with the latest one. In the returns from this district in the last election, Barnard received 2G,8!:5, while Kuhn got 26,005. This makes a difference of only S2S votes between the two candidates. It shows a number of things and one of them in particular is, that the personal campaign of Kuhn and his personality was pleasing to the popular fancy. It was a personal battle and Mr. Kuhn accomplished more in this district than any of his fellows did in the state. It was a good race and a clean one. Heart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE. Copy.ight, 1908, by Edwin A. Nye YOUR HUSBAND. MADAM. Says a writer who has traveled much: "The American husband Is the best husband in the world." Which is true, as every one who Is well informed knows. There are exceptions, of course. But, all in ail, your husband is a type of the best husband extant. As breadwinner, protector, generous in motive and stanch in character, the American husband is to his wife and family "as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land." Is he fully appreciated? Advice to husbands is common enough. And the plaint of "unappre elated wives" is exploited by many writers. What of unappreciated husbands? Some wives are so wholly swallowed up by their own grievances they can find no sympathy for a husband. They sigh over their "humdrum lot." Dear. Mrs. : I am not unmindful of your traits aa mother and housekeeper. But If your husband is honest, industrious, clean minded, if he does his best, you have THE GREATEST GIFT THE GODS CAN GIVE. The good husband gives himself without stint and freely. When the family -bills are paid he has little to spend for himself. If the wife and kids are grateful and kind he does not mind the labor or the sacrifice. But When he has done his utmost, if he goes without appreciation, if there is Ingratitude if, worse than all. there Is the reproachful hint that he might have dom tter then God pity that husband! Your man, my dear woman, has the same soul stuff in him that is In you. He may be bigger, stronger physically, but his feelings are just as keen as yours. Now He finds It an easy task to do and dare for those he loves as you do. But if he misses their appreciationlike you he misses all that life holds for him. Madam If you have in your husband a pure and manly spirit who makes himself a shield against "the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune." bend your sou In thankfulness to God and your husband. The star pupil arose at the Bchool entertainment to declaim his piece. "Lend me your ears!" he bawled. "Ha!" sneered 'the mother of the opposition but defeated pupil. "That's Sarah Jane Doran's boy. He wouldn't be his mother's son if he didn't want to borrow something." ASSUMES COMMAND UrDEPARTMENT OF EAST. MAJ.

Senator Beveridge Had Mind Made Up A bout Consulship
Indianapolis, Nov. 16. Senator Beveridge and John L. Griffiths, United States consul at Liverpool, had a quiet little talk the other day at the Columbia club, during which Griffiths' continuance in office was discussed. Not many persons saw the two men, but those who did see them in conversation were interested. The senator was at a table with a friend when Mr. Griffiths came up. "Senator," said Griffiths, "I would like to have a Httle talk with you when you are at leisure." "All right, John," the senator an swered. "Any time that suits you" "Perhaps we can talk right here,"! remarked Griffiths. The senator had no objections. "I wish to have you know." Mr. Griffiths continued, "that I am desirous of retaining my office as consul at Liverpool. I am pleased with the position and shall be glad to continue in the office if I can, and since I know j that your recommendation will decide whether or not I may do so. I have wished for an opportunity to acquaint you with my desire." REUNION A SUCCESS 114 Members of Trinity Church Confirmation Classes Attend. SERVICES APPROPRIATE. Services of an unusually appropriate nature marked the reunion of the confirmation classes of the Trinity Lutheran church last evening. Out of the 150 members of the sixteen classes that have been confirmed since 1893, "present" was answered to the, roll call by 114. Those absent were unfable to attend on account of illness, f absence or removal from the city. The ceremonies were conducted by the members of the classes and the program was representative in its every detail. The preliminary meeting of the members of the classes was held in the Sunday school rooms. A portion of the time was spent in shaking hands and renewing acquaintances and friendships that had lapsed with the course of years. Following the roll call the members passed inW the auditorium in class formation. The class of 1S93 was given the honor of leading and other classes followed according to the years. Among the members of the class of 1S93, who were in line last evening were Mrs. Rudulf Erk, Mrs. George Sudhoff and Mrs. Gotte, who have remained active and progressive members of the congregation. But four members of the classes have deceased and intoken of the respect for their memories as the names 1 were called from the roll, the surviv ing class mates bowed their heads in humble , acknowledgement.

His Mind Already Made Up. "I have already had that matter under consideration," Senator Beveridge answered, "and have made up my mind as to what I shall do in regard to it." Mr. Griffiths straightened up and batted his eyes at the directness of the answer. ,"It was not necessary at all for you to mention the subject to me," continued the senator. And again Griffiths looked around. "I have made up my mind that as far as I am concerned I shall be very glad to have you continue in office for two reasons," Senator Beveridge went on. "The first is the very excellent record you have made as consul. The second reason is the service you have rendered to your party." So it was settled right there in short order and in plain language that Mr. Griffiths shall not be disturbed in his position as consul. Mr. Griffiths was one of the strongest candidates for United States senator against Beveridge when he was elected first in 1899. members who have died are Miss Hilda Cutter, Miss Marie Frank, Albert Sieweke and Edward Townsend. The program was carried out as published. "A Word from the Congre gation" was offered by G. W. Deuker and the response was made by Carl Ackerman, of the class of 1904. "A Look Backward" was presented by Mrs. Edward Warfel and "A Look For ward" by Mrs. Otto Kemper. Respect was paid the deceased in a paper by Miss Edna Deuker. The principal ad dress of the occasion was delivered by the Rev. M. L. Baum, of Dayton, O. He recalled to the members of the classes their confirmation vows and urged them to govern their daily lives by them. DENNIS AGAIN ILL. Earlham Professor May Not be Able to Finish Term. Professor D. W. Dennis of Earlham college who has been in poor health for some time, was confined to his home Yesterday.

BATTLE CONTINUES Anti-tuberculosis League Will Fight "Great White Plague." CAMPAIGN TO BE OUTLINED. The Anti-Tuberculosis league has not died a victim to the disease it has Veen waging a war against. It has simply been lying dormant during the summer and within a few weeks will renew its efforts to oppose the "great white plague." Announcement has 3een made the executive committee will meet soon to arrange for the winter's program. A campaign against '.he disease such as was conducted last year, will be instituted. A public meeting will be held and officers tlected. It is probable that at this meeting papers will be read by local physicians treating of the subject of vuberculosis and outlining a plan for ihe crusade. In its work last year the organiza tion accomplished a great deal of good. The public was invited to all meetings and by lectures and the use of the ster eopticon, the public was made ac quainted with the nature of the dread disease. It was shown, also, the best plans for safeguard and to combat in cipient attacks. It has been suggest ed that this season special phases of the subject be taken up and given thorough discussion. It Paid. "I rever was glad for this Impediment in my speech but once," said the stuttering man from the country, who was in to see the town. "When was that?"

RETURNS GIVE REPUBLICANS FORTY-ONE MEN IN HOUSE WHILE THE DEMOCRATS WILL HAVE FIFTY-EIGHT. Indianapolis, Nov. 16. With the exception of one joint legislative district, official compilation of the vote for representative in the different counties has been completed by Frank I. Grubbs, assistant secretary of state. The result is 41 republican representatives and .58 democrats, omitting the returns from the district of Cass and Fulton counties. Returns received from Cass-Fulton district by the secretary of state, show that George Rentschler, democratic candidate in that district, re ceived 6,643 votes while Alfred Sibert, the republican candidate received 6,904, this would show the republican candidate elected, but comparison of these returns with the vote for. candidates for state office in Cass county, shows that the total number of votes cast in that county, for candidates for representative was less by about 1,000 than the total number of votes cast for candidates for state office. An inquiry will be made and if the county clerk has made a mistake in certifying the returns, it will be corrected. Some Close Shaves. Votes cast for representatives show some close shaves In a number of counties. The plurality of John B. Faulknor, democratic candidate in Laporte county, was only 29. The plurality of Homer L.

The pluralities of Thomas Honan. of Seymour, and James Garrard, of Vincennes, both democrats, and active candidates for the speakership of the next house, were comfortable. Honan, who represents Jackson county, won over Harley Jackson, his republican opponent, by 981 and Garrard won over Benjamin F. Polk, his republican opponent, by 860. Walter S. Rafliff, of Wayne county, who startled all of his Quaker constituents when he hesitated about voting for the county option bill In the special session, was elected over Walter D.
