A. building will be Sunday afternoon, March 21. Prof. Elbert Russell of Barlham college will give a .practical talk and a musical concert will be given by the Miami Glee club. The Glee club has been engaged to give a concert Satur day evening. March 20, under the auspices of the Sunday school department of the First Presbyterian church. The organization' consists of twentyfour students and it is said to be one of the best touring the country at the present time. The Y. M. C. A. offi cials are hopeful that the double at traction " will resultina large attendance. your; jmfm ' Th Rassen a Sublingual Test Is Used "In Finding' It." ' What, is a person's normal temperature? is a question often asked of every physician. .;.-'' 1 When the answer 98.6 degrees F. ts given to the query very few people understand the ' physiological ' significance of this fact or how a degree of systemic beat is maintained .during health within sucb- narrow limits that their bodies have an even temperature the coldest day in winter or the hottest day in summer ' with an ex actness of adjustment that is not ob tainable in warming oreooung tneir homes 'with the most up to date heating and refrigerating apparatus. ' . Now, in accepting the statement that the body temperature Is 98.6 degrees F': it J must be bortie In mind that to some extent this is a relative figure, 'for' the -warmth of the exterior varies markedly from that of the Interior. The surface -temperature of the head, hands or abdomen msy differ from 96 degrees F. down" to0'degrees F. or lower, while that of the Internal ' regions ; " may extend up-Uo 102.2 degrees P., the average of blood circulating in organs like the liver, pancreas and kidneys. For practical purposes some gauge most be accepted whereby normal .temperature may be measured and compared. Therefore on account of convenience and practicability the ; temperature taken carefully undr the tppgue.,py clinical thermometer has been selected as a common standardthrougbout med ical circles. It is. sometimes, recorded tn the axilla or ' groin Instead of In the mouth when for any reason, a sublingual test 'is not advantageous. The temperature of these localities differs slightly front the mouth, being .5 degrees F. less. Technical world Magazine. I ; A STATE CARRIAGE. Present ' to Chinas Emparor That ' Puzzlad the Orientals. , When, in 1793, Sir George Macartney headed the first British embassy to' China, he brought with him numer-1 ous psesehts for the emperor. Among these was a magnificent state carriage, an article which delighted, but at the same time puzzled, the Chinese more than any other gift Nothing like it had ever: been seen at the capital. Comical disputes immediately arose as to the seat intended for the emperor. The hamnJercloth which covered the box of the carriage had a smart edging of festoons of roses. It made a splendid appearance, and that, with its elevated position, immediately determined the official mind that it was without doubt the emporer's seat: ; Then the question arose of what the Inside of the coach was Intended for. The blinds, screens and so forth were all carefully examined, and it was decided that the Interior was the place for the ladies only; "... r : 1 ' An old retainer went to a member of the embassy to ask if the conclusions were correct. .. When he learned that the fine elevated box was the seat of the" coachman and that the emperor's place was laetde the coach he - was horrified. He asked, with a sneer, if it : was supposed that the son- of heaven would suffer any one to sit higher than himself and turn, his back on him. When he found that the driver was bilged to use- the seat in question he requested that the box be removed and placed somewhere behind Helen H.

AN UNUSUAL CONDITION ? "' " HARLES MARTIN, LILLIAN WILCOX, EDDIE LANAN AND FRED- : DIE DENT ARE THE ONES WHO I ARE ABSENT. The police department is bout to establish a bureau of information and Identification. The number of missing men and boys that has been reported to headquarters in the past fewdays is the cause of the belief that such a bureau is needed. At the present time the department is striving to lo cate one 'missing woman, one man whose whereabouts are not known and two runaway boys. All are believed to be : somewhere 1 In the vicinity of Richmond. j Taking with him only his "favorite tazor," Charles Martin left his home 41 fl . . , 1 . J a. ete.ly after partaking of the noon meal and has not been home since. His whereabouts are unknown to his anxious wife and- nine months old baby. The man is believed to be suffering from temporary insanity. r LaiitSeen of Her. 1 ' 3 - After eating dinner. Wednesday, Martin asked his wife what kind of meat she wanted for dinner Thursday. She regarded this as quite unusual, .-as it had not been his custom to look aft er the needs of the table. She told him a meat she thought would be desirable and asked what ' prompted the question1. . Martin told her he just thought he .would ;;gflr around and get it. Jle left the house and that was the hist seen of him. " He had been acting re cently, in . a manner' that aroused his wife's suspicions. , ; ' " Martin has been employed as a fire man at the Robinson factory. He had not been involved in any affair' with the police. ' Her is 48 years old, of medium height, light; complexion and has a heavy moustache. The police have no clue, -v.' c--f ". s ' -t Woman is Missing. Mrs. Lillian Wilcox Is the woman the police; are. searching for. , She is being wanted in order to appease the cravings of her. nineteen year old son who Is traveling all over the United States in search of her. William Hen ry -.Wilcox, the son,, has traveled from Boston, Mass., ' as far - west as St. Louis. He said he. has reason to believe his mother has not been west of that city and that how she may be somewhere in. this vicinity. The lad was placed in a charity home at Boston, Mass., when only seven years old and remained there until he began bis tour . and search. . He is a member of the newspaper carriers union and makes his way selling papers. . He went from here to Dayton to continue his search. . ", , J2 l J Where; is Lanan.? - The police have been unable to. se cure any clue that may-lead them to locate Eddie Lanan. a seventeen year old boy who ran away from the home of bis parents six miles south of: Lib erty.'' The boy was given -money to go to College Corner and have some den tal work done last Thursday. He did not .have ..the work ..done, but instead kept the money ' add started north along the- C. .C. & 1m - railroad. , The parents 'of the boy Bay he never had been in trouble and are rat a loss to understand why he should act as he has.

Upon the request- ot the police de partment, of Marion., the local police are trying to ;locate; Freddie Dent, ag ed thirteen.5 a tblored bor.

When the bright red glow of a bon are on the Earlbam campus illuminat ed "the heavens" at about 11 o'clock last evening, someone on North West Third street yelled fire. ; A group of boys was standing at the corner of Third and Randolph streets and. when ine aiarm was sounaea Dy. tne belated pedestrian, one stepped to-'the "fire alarm box. and called' .the department a. The boys remained at the corner to explain matters to A Chief .Miller; and his men. Of course the wagons ' did not continue to the college. The wagonsjmade a quick run and the horses appeared to enjoy the exercise! "The men wire not in such good 'humor: '.

Letters were sent out several days ago showing the conditions of the association to business men of the city. Those receiving these letters will be visited by the committee. A FAMOUS LIBRARY. Origin of the System of "Boning" For , College Examinations. Just before examination time col lege students begin to study at top speed. Usually tbey call that unwonted occupation "cramming," "grinding" or "boning." , The" first. , of course, means literally stuffing knowledge into themselves. The second was suggested by the phrase about keeping one's nose to the grindstone. But how about boning?" It was a grateful student who thus dubbed the process of ab sorbing Information, for he named ft after the "trot" or "pony" that he used. v It was the famous Bonn library of translations to wbicb the English student resorted as an ever ready help in time of trouble. Henry George Bonn started his library in 1846 and began what -afterward become a big business. For one thing,: be. began purchasing "remainders" that is, the old plates of standard works and translations snd printing cheap" editions from them. Bohn found the publishing of, standard foreign works in English so, profitable that be developed the business, and it used to pay to-fouy translations from, poor back A. B.'s wh,owere glad enough to 'get a farthing or two for their knowledge. Finally practically all the . ancient classics and some modern ones were obtainable In the Bohn library, and so popular did they become among stu dents who feared being plucked that. Bohn's German was turned Into Eng lish, and "boning? was henceforth rec ognised as digging into dead -writers' works by means of the crafty publish er's translations. New York Tribune. V00D00ISM IN HAITI. --? ' " I ,. ' The Vexed Queetiorr of Human Sacri fice In the Worship. That the hold which the voodoo worship has on the people of Haiti is stronger than the power of the church is shown by the, fact that the day before the writer's Inspection of a voodoo temple in the "mountains, where he saw six goatskin drums, a Boman Catholic priest bad visited the district and made his ministrations conditional on the people destroying their instru ments, but they refused. The govern ment does not, as a rule. Interfere with the practices of the cult on ac count of the . political influence of its leaders.'.. The question whether human flesh Is now eaten in connection with the voo doo ceremonies IS a perplexing one. which it is impossible to answer with any degree of confidence.

It is almost 200 years since Edward Thatch, better known as the pirate Blackbeard, was a name with which to terrorize the Atlantic coast of the then new country of America. As a buccaneer whose deeds of despe raterdaring made him feared wherever bis name was known be stands a close) rival of the famous Captain Kidd. if Indeed In soni respects be did not surpass that notorious freebooter. The date of Thatch's btrth Is lost la history, and his nativo Iace Is variously given as Bristol and Jamaica. He first appears' as" a frreifoast hand to Major Stede. Bonnet, a gentleman of Barbados, who, although a man-of property and having small knowledge of tbe sea, thought proper to fit out a sloop and take to a life of piracy, tbe explanation of hi being "a little distracted" being charitably given by on biographer. However that may be, his crew missed in the major the qualities of a successful commander. They deposed him and elected Thatch In bis place. Bonnet was tried and executed In 171L Thatch's first independent exploit of which we ha to a detailed account took . place in June. 1718. when be captured two French ships near the Bermudas, one laden with bugar. the other empty.

Thatch , lingered there " for ...some months, plundering and insulting the merchants" of the place. These, understanding at length the' futility of expecting redress from Eden, applied to tbe governor of Virginia to rid them of the pest. Tbe governor. . after consultation with tbe. captains of the Pearl and ume, tnen lying in tno -James river. . agreed to provide two sloops, the warships to furnish a complement of . men.
