Toledo, O., Aug. 27. Marquis De yilla Lobar, Minister from Spain, -was

entertained -with a banquet last nlgbt as the culmination of his visit to Toledo to attend the King Wamba Carnival. In addition to Marquis De Villa Lobar, Llus Pastor, Secretary of the Spanish Legation, was present. The attendance of Don Francisco Leon De La Barra, Ambassador from Mexico, who hed accepted an invitation, was prevented by an unfortunate misunderstanding as to precedence at table, which arose from the fact that after he agreed to come the Spanish Minister received commission as the direct representative of King Alfonso, and as such took the ground that he was entitled to precedence. Mexican Cuts It Out. Senor De La Barra, because of his superior diplomatic rank, declined to concede the point when' the matter was referred to him, and to avoid complications canceled his engagement. Marquis De Villa Lobar refrained from discussing matters of a political or diplomatic nature, although this was one of his first public appearances since his return to the United States as Minister. His response to the toast of Judge John S. Doyle was solely of a social nature, conveying In the name of his sovereign and of his country, extended greetings and best wishes for the prosperity of the American city named after the old Spanish Toledo. The Marquis also recalled his former visit to Ohio in 1893 in company with bis uncle, the Duke of Veragua, a lineal descendant of Christopher Co lunVbus. The Minister will return to Washington tomorrow afternoon. TEACHERS ASKED BY KltlllAMAN IF THEY ARE LIARS (Continued From Page One.) led to pray for himself, when In fear of some impending crisis. The boy is not unlike the adult in this respect. He is also like the savage, who may profess religion, but have no real use for it until he finds himself in an emergency. The boy was said to have very little sense of ' responsibility and very little sense of repentance. He repeats if he thinks it will do him some good. The work Of the Sunday schools was paid a high tribute. The speaker said tt Is too often the teachers get the v Idea their work does not count for ' much. But In reality they do not see the fruits of their labors. They do not realize what an influence they are exerting that will be made manifest in the future years. The teacher forte her work gets no recognition, but there is no way to judge what it gets. It was said the boys' spiritual growth Is in waves. He may be converted, backslide and then be taken through the same process once or twice again. In this way religious de- ' velopment Is brought about. There are other modifying influences. Chautauqua Notes. Mr. Rice's entertainment this evening is at 6:30 o'clock, The lectures this morning were the last for the institute. Miss O'Reilly has withdrawn from filled by others. Tomorrow afternoon the boys of the Boys' City will give a circus. They will provide tumbling and acrobatic acts for the show by the children of Miss Lambkin's class. There Is no program for tomorrow morning. Dr. Bpurgeon speaks at 7 o'clock this evening. s TALK BY WEATHERMAN. One of the most interesting of the Chautauqua sessions was that cf yes terday afternoon. D- Kinnmic, the Rev. Irl Hicks, weather mn and R. J. Aley. state superintendent of publio instruction div'ded honors. The attendance was large and tbe heat seemed to hae no influence on the enthusiasm of those who heard the lectures. The St. Louis -weather prognosticator did not attempt any demonstrations of his occult power with the elements, but told how he knows what he knows about atmopherical conditions. . - Dr. Kinnaman talked upon "The Advantages of a Higher Education." He made a particularly effective plea that children be permitted to' attend the high school. He spoke incidentally of ; ' the academy and college education. He did not find them as fundamental- ' y useful to success In life as that provided by the high school of good standing, however. . The speaker deprecated the "fact seven-eights of the children do not complete the $ high I school course.

He Says Mind Culture Ruins Any Woman For Work In Home

Winnipeg, Man., Aug. 27. That women by the strengthening of their intellects are failing to perform the duties of their sex and that science will furnish the most effective barrier to the forward movement of woman's suffrage were points made by Professor H. F. Armstrong, Ph. D., LL. D., P. R. ' S., president of the chemical section, in his address before the British Association for the Advancement of Science. Tbe professor held that so long as the woman devoted a great portion of her time to the improvement of the mind, she lost that much time and that much ability properly to attend to her home duties. He declared his faith in the progress in chemistry toward solving the prob lems of life and sex. He found fault with the present conditions of society, which, he said, place no hindrance in the way of the unfit, "Those who presumably are the fittest," he averred, "are failing to contribute In proper proportion to the perpetuation of their race. The condition of affairs today affords a most striking exemplification of the slowness with which civilized nations are learning to appreciate the lessons of science." of value especially to the parent and patron of the schools. Quite Eccentric. About as eccentric as the weather with which he appears to be so familiar Is Dr. Irl Hicks. As a platform speaker, in style at least, he is an innovation locally. He has a spon taneity of delivery that enthuses and amuses. His subject matter affords him a conglomeration from which he picks out, bits by bit, and analyzes them. "The Weather Mill" was the subject on which he chose to speak yesterday afternoon. He undertook to tell some of the things he knows about weather conditions and made the confession there are some other things he nor any other man knows. He presented a kind of chart of weather conditions and his audience attempted to follow his explanations. The matter of instruction in the public schools was taken as the theme for the remarks by Supt. Aley. He claims Indiana has a first class system of education. He said the course of study is one of the most important things in connection with any school system and that in this state the course organizes and unifies "HERO" JACK BINMS LOSER IN A SUIT. ik If "Hero" Jack Binns. of the White Star Line steamship Republic who has lost his suit for an injunction restraining the use of his pictures saving the RpnbUe-

"No problem can compare in import ance with that of the future of our race. Not only do we encourage deterioration at the lower end of the scale of intelligence we are now through our system of education courting failure also at the upper end. "Herbert Spencer forcibly drew attention many years ago to the tend ency which the development of individuality must have to depress fertility and to the evil effects of severe mental labor on women especially. It has been stated that in the United States of America the highest education of girls has been proved to sterilize them. "The most disquieting feature of the times is the revolt of women against their womanhood and their claim to be on an equality with man and to compete with men in every way. There should be no question of equality raised; when comparison is made between complementary factors the question of equality does not and cannot come mto consideration. It Is clear that should the struggle arise and it is to be feared that it is coming upon us there can be but one issue: Women must fail, and in failing must carry man to her destruction." the work. Attention of the state board of education has been centered upon the matters of most importance. Health and Schools. The speaker took up the great importance the state board of health has placed in the schools. He said the health board is trying to improve health conditions throughout the state by calling the attention of the children to disease and how to prevent it. He said the text books in this state which deal with topics of health are equal to the best that are prepared. The speaker spoke of the need for cooperation in respect to any law. He called attention to the state prohibition law of many years ago that failed, because the public had no faith in it. The same condition would be true of laws concerning health unless the children were taught In school about the things the law intends to remedy. "Vague and indefinite teaching" was denounced by the speaker. He said teachers ought to' have an object and lessons a meaning. Teaching must be centered upon the major subjects. Impressionistic teaching adds to the confusion of the pupils and the result is harmful. Need Better English. Better English is a thing the super intendent says ought to be striven for He declared the language is butchered Iand mutiliated by graduates of the schools in a frightful manner. He said a pride should be taken in the beauty of the language and it should be given careful consideration instead oi being trampled upon. , Tne carelessness of teachers in their use of the language was deplored. He insisted on the formation of habits of good speech among the children and said the teachers could do a great deal to bring this about. - rmaeian jtuce made nis nrst ap pearance yesterday afternoon. Mr, Rice has just come from the chautau qua at New York, where he appeared for the second consecutive year. This is an unusual; thing at that chautau qua. Mr. Kice presents entire plays impersonating all the characters. He has strong dramatic ability. Dr. William J. Dawson, of London. delivered an excellent address last evening. It was a plea for the enthus tasro and fire that makes religious fervor. He said it is a fire that burns but does .not consume. Dr. Dawson is a famous English divine. He has traveled extensively in this country delivering addresses. He was intro duced to the audience by Dr. William Supurgeon, another noted English minister.

OF THE TEAM ARE BACK AND THE NEW CANDIDATES ARE VERY PROMISING. Coach Thistlethwaite has been in the city this week attending the conference of the Eariham alumni, who are coaching at difererit colleges and getting things in shape for the opening of the football season next month. He is very optimistic over the season's prospects and thinks that the team will be the strongest Eariham has had in sev

eral years, particularly in the new style of football. The team will prob ably not be as heavy as that of last year, but it will be much faster. Every effort will be made to get speed into the back field and from the material it looks as if that part of the team will not be found wanting. Of last year's squad, thirteen men who were used in 'varsity games, will return. This bunch includes Lawrence a star end of the l !." team, and probably the best punter Eariham has ever had. He was kept out of tl? greater part of the games last season on account of injuries, but is now in excellent shape and will add great strength to the squad. Of the new material much is e pected of Turbyville, a star quarter back and place kicker from Decatur, 111. He come with a good reputation and having both weight' and speed ought to add strength to what has been the weakest point on the team in the past thre years. Moreland from Sheridan has had six years experienc on high school and athletic teams at half back. He is a fast man with plen ty of nerve and is expected to make good. Elliott, from the same place made the all state high school team last year at tackle, but he has done the 10O yards in lO 2-5, so will probably be tried out at the back field. Mills, from Vermilion and Roberts from Westfield, although light, have done good work at end and quarter, and will be strong candidates. The schedule as aranged by Coach Vail before his departure is as follows: October 9, Cedarville college at Eariham. October 16, Antioch at Yellow Springs, O. October 23. Butler at Indianapolis. October 30, Franklin at Franklin. November 6, Wittenberg at Eari ham. November 13, Moore's Hill at Eari ham. November 20, De Pauw at Greencastle. With the exception of De Pauw. Wittenberg will put up the best game on the schedule. DeTray, the former Chicago captain and assistant to Coach Stagg last year, will have charge of the Springfield squad, and from reports they are expecting to win the Ohio championship. Wfcr H Dlnllked the Mas. I once heard of a man who, discuss ing a name on tbe visiting list, said to tils wife, "You knew perfectly well hat I don't like that man." "Don't you think you - are a little unreasonabler asked the wife. "Your dislike arose because be AM not answer a letter you wrote him. and you found afterward that the letter was hung up nil summer in the pocket of your overcoat and was never sent to him at all." "Yes, I know that," was the rejoinder, "but It was so long before I found It out that I couldn't overlook his rodess, and I never forgave him, and 1 don't believe I ever shall. There is a good deal of ill feeling in this world that is without any firmer foundation. -Printers' Ink. The Cat. A little English girl wrote the following essay on a cat: "Tbe cat Is s square quadruped, and, as Is customary with square quadrupeds, has its legs at tbe four corners. If you want to please this animal yoa must stroke it an the back. If It Is very much pleased It sets up its tall quite stiff, like a ruler, so that your hand cannot get any farther.

iLLEDGED GOSSIP CAUSE OF CHIME? William Harris Said to Have Resented Talk About His Marriage. LANCASTER IN A DENIAL VICTIM OF MURDEROUS ASSAULT INFORMS PROSECUTOR THAT HE NEVER SAID. ANYTHING ABOUT THE UNION. Prosecuting attorney Charles Ladd was informed this morning that it had been learned indirectly that Mrs. William H. Harris, formerly Miss Jane Kerlin, had told her husband that he did the right thing in shooting John Lancaster last Saturday night. However he has seen Mrs. Harris and her sentiment toward her husband seems to have changed greatly and she now refuses to either furnish money to ball him out of the county Jail, or for at torney's fees, in order that he may be defended when his case comes to trial on a charge of shooting with intent to j kiU. At the time of the mariage of Harris to Miss Kerlin. about six weeks ago, there was consiaeraoie comment among the neighbors and relatives. The comment, which was unfavorable. was due to the fact that Harris is but 47 years old while his wife Is 76 years old. Mra. Kerlin la older than Harris's mother. Harris Is Sullen. It is now believed by the authorities that one of the motives prompting Harris to make the assault from ambush was Information given him regarding statements Lancaster was alleged to have made regarding the wedding. . However Lancaster himself told Mr. Ladd that these reports -were absolutely without any foundation. Harris remains in a sullen mood at the county jaiL while Lancaster is rapV1 iyFrtttft- - - ""-
