TO . BE STRAIGHTENED Work of Eliminating C. & O. Curves Starts Soon. Work on straightening out the curves in the C. & O. railway of Indiana will probably start early in the summer. Surveys for the changes in the right of way were made last year and the route mapped out by the engi neers has practically been adopted as !tbe new right of way for the company. I However the comnanv has not as yet 'acquired title to all the proposed new j right of way. The proposed changes ' in Wayne county are numerous and ! particularly so from Richmond, north. At the same time that the company i begins straightening its road it is ex pected arrangements w ill also be made for double tracking the system. R. P. i Dalton of Chicago, the superintendent I of construction, has inspected the sysitem and the proposed changes thor oughly and it is understood has aiproved most of the changes to be made. The company is gaining in business and has not had to lay off men. as the Pennsylvania railroad company has claimed it has had to do. because of an alleged decrease in business. . For SalC Seed Corn.

EASTHAVEN i William Harper Finally Re moved from'the Jail. William Harper, insane, confined in I the county jail since January 1. was placed in Eastern Indiana HopMtal for the insane Friday afternoon. The man's condition was rapidly becoming worse at the county jail, where he refused to leave his cell and was slowly i.iarving himself to death, having refused all proffered food. There is now but one insane man confined. Benjamin Spinner. colored. Ralph Lantz. of Milton, another insane man who ,ias been confined in the jail, but who escaped Wedesiiay morning, will be confined in case be is captured. It is improbable that any effort will le made to apprehend Iantz. The atithoiities received word Thursday afternoon that he was found near Camden, begging his way. It is thought ae is making for Cincinnati. As this is rather a hard life for Lantz. who always has been used to affluence and fine hotel accommodations, the authorities expect that sooner or later he will return to the county and give himself up.

WILL VOTE SUNDAY

ON CHURCH MERGER Congregations of Both Local Friends Churches Discussed Project. Nothing remains to be done in the

matter of the proposed consolidation f Copper of the East M.iin Street and South! Am Smelting Eighth Street Friends churches except j C S Siee". . . . for a vote to be taken at the services ! C S Steel pfd of the two congregations Sunday Pennsylvania morning. The proposition was thor-jSt Paul

oughly discussed and considered from j all angles at the prayer meetings of j both churches last evening. About ! seven or eight members of the East Main Street church expressed their opinion on the matter, both favorable and adverse attitudes being taken, ' while about twenty-five or thirty members of the South Eighth Street congregation gave voice to their sentiments and more would have spoken had it not been found necessary to adjourn the meeting on account of the late hour. It was after 10 o'clock when the meeting of the latter church was ended. In general the posjtions taken by the adverse and favorable elements in both churches are these: In opposition, that a consolidation of churches is contrary to present day methods of expansion and extension in church work and that more efficient work for the spread of tho gospel can be effected through two churches than one. In support of the project, that a consolidation would greatly decrease the expense and allow more money to be given to the various fields of church work while the same work could be accomplished as well In the local field with one church as with two churches. No idea as to the result of the vote to be taken Sunday morning could be gained through the expressions of opinions given last night. BASEBALL TEAM IS GIVEN A PRACTICE For the first time in over a week the Earlham baseball men were able to hold out door batting practice yesterday afternoon on the upper campus. Coach Thistlethwaite took the opportunity to work out material for a catcher to take the place of Beard, who is out of the game on account of conditions in his studies. Two new men are showing up favorably in this work, Richie and Brubaker. Brubaker is a former shortstop, and Richie a former pitcher, but they are both making rapid strides toward perfection with the big glove. The outfield was wideawake, and pitchers Hays and Lewis both showed remarkable form for so little out door work. In spite of the bad weather preventing out door practice, the situation is very promising and the Earlham team is expecting to make off with the diamond honors at their first game with Butler college at Indianapolis, A4ril 15. The track squad and weight men are rapidly rounding into proper form, and the cross-country runners are out over the fields every day. The Earlham coach stated that, provided the weather remained suitable, the college athletes might expect, hard workouts in all lines during the next week. AN EXILE RETURNS Wealthy Brewer Comes from Paris to Surrender. (American News Service) St. Louis, April 7.
