AGED BOOKS GIVEN TO LOCAL COLLEGE

Valuable Literary Donations Received from J. E. Iliff by Earlham.

Citizens of HU hmond are iloubtl ss familiar with the tact that at acveral llmca in recent years Mr. J. K. Iliff ha Riven to t ho Anglican elub of Karlhttin college nets of books of a distinctly literary value. A few days ago Mr. Illff continued this Kiliey by offerinK the dub a number of very old prints of standard work, some of which have been in existence for nearly three hundred years, and are believed to be the oldest copies in the utate of Indiana. The collection ineludes six volumes of Voltaire's I'nivrrsal History, published In 1ondon In 1 71 1 . and iilso the works of Laurence Sterne, consist inn of eight volumes and published in Iondon in !"!!. These sets are In remarkably good condition, and con easily be recognized as a very valuable addition to any library. Among the miscellaneous hooks In the collection is a volume entitled "Practical Wisdom" which was published in Iondon in and contains efnlrlbutions from Sir Walter Kaleigh. Sir Mat hew Hale, Karl of Hedford. William I'enn, Ibnjamin Franklin and others. A three volume nketch of the life of Iorenzo de Medici, published in Ixuidon In ISurt, will ndd to the biographical department. Two Individual volumes printed in the middle of the seventeenth century are of particular Interest. One of these is a quaint old print of a sermon preached by lr. Jeremy Taylor on the life and works of the Iord ArchMshop of Armagh, at the time of his death. It was edited and printed for John Crooks "At the sign of the Ship In St. raid's Churchyard, Kit!::." The Itook is still Intact, but its panes must tn handled with care. The other Is an edition In largo type of the works of Abraham Cowley, taken from the author's original copies and printed In Ijondon In IMS. It would seem that theso volumes are a moderate fulfilment of Kriswell's statement that "There Is nothing so Imperishable as r book." The president of the elub Ufa ted today that the books had been Accepted and would be placed in the Anglican department of the general rollcgo library whero they may be teen at any time. He also stated that this addition to the general library wa a valuable one and would be appreciated not only by the club, but by the college as a w hole.

LITTLE EXERCISE INJURES HORSES As a result of not enough exercise and too much feed, many horses in the county have died from paralysis this spring, according to veterinarians. The disease is not an uncommon one, and one difficult to treat successfully, if allowed to run too long. Most often the first evidence of the ailment comes while working the horse after a long rest and confinement in a stall. If the horse is allowed to rest when the first symptoms are noticed, it is probable that the attack will quickly pass, but if driven hard when experiencing an attack, it is more than likely the animal will drop over dead.

JACKSON TOWNSHIP ISjlLLY DRY Surviving Saloon at East German town Gave Up the Ghost Last Night.

Short ones, tall ones, and all kinds of alcoholic exhilarants. including the fancy concoctions, bid a fond farewell to "wet ' residents of Kast Germantown and Jackson township last evening when the doors of the last surviving saloon of the blanket remonstrance of last June closed promptly at 11 o'clock, and the festive spirits in ghostly silence fled to private homes to take abode until they shall be consumed with the drouth of temperance. The passing of the saloon in Jackson township for a period of at least two years was marked by no tumultuous disorder or disturbance of any kind. The tinal day of the Kast (Jerniantown saloon, which was the last one in the township to be affected by the remonstrance, was only a duplicate of Tho ones which have marked its existence previously except that business was probably more rushing. The usual proceeding consisting of an application to the county board of commissioners for liquor licenses will be necessary in order to ::llow saloons to open up again in 1912 after the expiration of the remonstrance. To prevent the granting of licenses there and to continue the dry regime it will be necessary for the drys to secure another blanket remonstrance or to win a victory through the medium of a township option election. The saloons in Cambridge City which was the only other town in Jackson township in which the moisture shops operated, went out of business under the remonstrance some

time ago.
