ANTIOCH THROWS A CHILL NT00UAKERS Coach Changes Decision of Playing Scrubs and Will Send in Varsity.

The Earlham college football team met Antloch on Reid field today. Coach Thistlethwalte had planned to end the entire second team against Antioch, but upon learning of the strength of the opposing team this year, whipped the varsity into the best of shape in order to hold its own with the visitors. Antioch has won all its games this year with the exception of one with Ohio Northern, which is a team of high ranking in Ohio athletics. The last appearance of an Antioch football team on Reid field was two years ago when Earlham won by a score of 12 to 0. Sharpless, the regular left end, displaces Stanley; Brownell started the game at right half in place of Williams, and Vickery appeared at quarterback as Johnson is out on account of an injury received in the Wabash game. COURT NEWS Oeorgianna H. Kinkley has filed suit to quiet title versus Edward J. Homey and others, In the Wayne circuit court this morning. Inventory of the personal estate of Lydla E.

Whiskey Prices Smashed Biggest Reduction In Cost to Consumer In History. Novel Method Means Smash in Prices. CINCINNATI, O., Nov. 16. The excessive cost of good Whiskies, Liquors and Cordials due mainly to the big Whiskey Trust which has held prices far above the true value is going to bt cut radically through a remarkable discovery of an expert distiller of Cincinati, Ohio. After many years of scienific research and experimenting he as produced a highly concentrated itract from which any Whiskey, Liq.or or Cordial can be made right at home. Requiring no apparatus or boiling. A few minutes does the work The question of the legality of this method has been carefully investigated and declared to be legal and legitimate in any part of the country. Wit. this new method a quart of any Liquor can be made at home for 25 cents, equal to, if not better, than those sold at from four to five times the price. Liquor Dealers and Distillers who have grown wealthy at the expense of tht

.consumer are making frantic efforts to stem the tide of approval which it daily increasing toward these wonderful Extracts. It is indeed a remark able discovery and he has already re eived thousands of letters of praisi from satisfied users. We understand that the discoverer of this extract is permitting any responsible person tc try a quart of any Liquor free as a sample. Anyone interested would dc well to write to A. S. Shuh, 8142 Sycamore St., Cincinnati, O., and ask for free trial offer and his interesting jbooklet giving secrets of Liquor Making at Home. H Advertisement)

GERMANS MUSICAL NATION

Their Organizations in Various Localities Have Much to Spread Musical Culture and to Influence the Public Taste.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. The Germans have something that we haven't. Or, indeed, that is not possessed by any other nation. It's an instinct for music. Especially for singing. And, in the end, it makes for a certain culture which is aside from the latter in its more comprehensive sense. There Is nothing more conducive to social solidarity than a common interest. One of the reasons for the disintegrating quality of American society is its vagueness, detachment, lack of anchorage. People float aimlessly together and as aimlessly float apart. They wobble and didder and teeter, chatter and grin and indulge in feeble Bocial Ineptitudes. Where do you hear good conversation nowadays? When do you listen to an exchange of intelligent opinions on any subject? Women carry on "discussions" at clubs. But given the attentive ear these prove to be more or less chaot'c and unintelligible, straying into blind alleys and going off at strange and unrelated tangents. They make more or less manful struggles to reach a goal. But rarely accomplish it. The trouble is they do not think coherently. They wander into every mental sideshow, stop at every conversational booth. They go hopping along like canary birds, their bright little eyes shifting from this object to that, darting here to peck at a seed, there to detach a crumb from the fish-bone, flutter to the swing where they trill a few more or less melodious notes and fly to the bath where they flutter their wings ineffectually. Here and there they skip, snatching at the air, their hands closing on vacancy, their feet stumbling into intellectual bogs. And yet they will retire with cheeks flushed, nerves prostrated, hands trembling, thinking they have been partaking of a banquet when they have really indulged in an orgy. What we call culture, hereabouts Is mostly a surface manifestation, a flash in the pan, an occasional sky-rocketing. After the fireworks are over the party breaks up, goes home, partakes heavily of fried pancakes and sleeps the sleep of the uncou. The occasions are sporadic, have no continuity and their essence, thinspread, is not absorbed but skimmed up by the passing breezes and dissolv ed into the atmospheric elements. Now and then it is good to see this crass American condition working out in spots. And it is, oftener than not, through organizations of our foreign-born citi zens. Or, at least, those, nationalized, but of foreign origin. They have done much for this country in the encouragement of. the appreciation of good music, for one thing. In almost every city you will find an aggregation of Germans who are organized for the purpose of the study and exploitation of ensemble singing and who support series of cqncerts and various musical events. In the larger centers these are nucleuses for a musical culture which permeates the community. And they have been as largely instrumental as any other agency in the development of the musical taste of this country which manifests itself largely in the support of the highest priced opera singers and the most elaborately staged opera in the world. But with our national tendency to exaggerations we concentrate on this phase of music at its apogee. And it is only within the past few years that more than one of the great metropolises has established, through its public spirited citizens, an. opera company of its own. When every little German capital has one supported by the government or through some civic source. But they are content with the intelligent interpretation of the music through more or less unheralded singers. We do not think we are getting "our money's worth" unless we hear a famous role sung by its most famous exponent in the world. And this, for one reason, is the cause of a lack of musical understanding which comes from education in this country. If this city, in instance, were willing to put up a guarantee every year and bring the Aborn Grand Opera Company here for a week as they go to the Murat theatre in Indianapolis through the usual theatrical routine it would be a matter of but a few vears before the humblest denizen of the town would be conversant with the great operatic masterpieces. While these are sung in English by the Aborns it is to be doubted whethn it adds much to the comprehension or enjoyment A translation always loses in effect whether through the medium of music r literature. The great thing is to become famiiar with the score and the opera's iramatic phases. For operatic singing is more or less nintelligible in word enunciation ither in English or a foreign tongue. However this city has. through its -ublic schools, done much for the formation of a refined and Intelligent musical comprehension and taste, evi denced through it's May festivals and the organization of its Symphony orchestra. How much of this is due to Mr. Earhart and how much to the city at large is a question which must be decided in the future.

Done

That this city's musical inclinations are not wholly owing to these latter influences is, however, shown in the existence of the Maennerchor, an organization of German-Americans which is becoming one of the community's heaviest musical assets and which is to give Its first public concert Thanksgiving eve. This society has been in existence for some time past and it includes a chorus of twenty men's voices, and, being permanent, its agency as a medium of musical culture is potent. In addition to its musical phases it, with other kindred organizations over the state, helps support certain stu dents in the German departmet oi In'diana University. By giving assistaance to these students who wish to matriculate in the University in German they help the spread of the knowledge of the German language and its classics. Mr. J. Louis Shenk, the well known baritone, who toured last Spring with Mary Garden, has consented to sing a group of German songs and the concert, to which admission is nominal, will no doubt be one of the most interesting of the winter. It wil be held in St. John's hall on South Fourth street. Mr. William Duning, Jr., president of the Maennerchor, has been unremitting in his efforts to put this organization on sound musical basis and the first concert to be given the public will no doubt attract the attention of the latter, both German and American. HOW TO TAKE PILLS. Take Blackburn's Casca-Royal Pills, that never gripe nor sicken. One each night as a laxative. Two or three as a cathartic. After a few weeks' use the trouble is usually corrected. Try a 10c package just once and you'll want no other they are so prompt and pleasant. Advertisement. OLD Gr RALLY Will Attend Earlham-De-Pauw Football Game. The De Pauw-Earlham football game which ends the season for the Quakers next Saturday is expected to bring one of the largest crowds of alumni and old students that have ever attended an Earlham game. Already seventy people have written that they expect to be at the game, and the college i3 making arrangements to care for that many. There is no doubt but that a much larger number will be in Richmond for the day and to see the game. Miss Conrad, dean of women, made a statement last night that all guests ; should make arrangements with mem bers of the student body if they desired entertainment as the list which the college can entertain has been exhausted. The game with De'Pauw is always one of the most hotly contested of the season and attracts more attention than any other on account of the rivalry which exists between the colleges. The De Pauw football team, although weak early in Che season, has won its last two games by large scores over Rose Poly and Miami, and the fine showing which Earlham made J against Wabash last Saturday makes a hard game inevitable. NOTICE. No hunting allowed on the farm near Middleboro, occupied by E. W. Glunt. 16-2t After the Deluge. She had just returned from her first trip to Europe and everybody was given an opportunity to know about it. One by one they gently extricated themselves, but at last she found a silent youth in a corner who proved to be an attentive listener. To him she rhapsodized on the beauty of Ufa "abroad," oud especially in England It is difficult, however, for the most enthusiastic tourist to exist long without eliciting from an auditor some expression of wonder or applause, so she sought to break her listener's respectful silence even at the expense of losing a littie time herself. "Were you ever in England?" she asked. "Yes," he said modestly. "I was born there, and I am thirty-six years old. I lived there until I, came to America three months ago. If you can tell tie anything about America 1 should be awfully glad, as I wish to learn all I can." New York Press. Diseases of Metals. Metals suffer from contagious diseases analogous to those of living beings. Among these diseases one of the most striking is that called "tin pest" Sometimes a block, a plate or medal of tin attacked by this disease crumbles and falls into dust and sometimes warty protuberances appear on the surface of the metal. Various other metals suffer from a disease that manifests itself by a spontaneous recrystailization. The most remarkable cases occur with lead and hard drawn brass. These diseases are not due. as has been thought simply to moisture. Temperature plays a part in producing them. The most extraordinary fact perhaps is that the "tin pest" is capable of spreading by contagion. Harper's Weekly. Maybe a Little After. The play was not by any means brilliant, and obviously the man was bored. Suddenly be leaped to his feet . "I heard an alarm of fire." he said. "I must go and see where it Is."

OFFICIALS FAVOR SOUTHERN ROUTE Leave Impression that the Company Will Build this Extension Soon.

The report of G. K. Jeffries, general manager of the T. H., I. & E. Traction company to the city oflcials concerning the proposed extension of the street car lines of the city north and south is regarded as very encouraging. Jeffries reported to President Kennepohl of the board of works that the proposed route south of the city would probably be favorably considered by the traction company, as the need of the line is evident to the company and it also believes that the line will be profitable. He said he did not know how soon, action would be taken by the company as It took a great deal of time because of the necessary expense to the company. Regarding the northern route, Mr. Jeffries did not give the officials very much encouragement though he made no statements to discourage them.

There is an old saying that if you can count five between the flash art the thunder you are safe. Modern science tells us that if yon can see the flash at all you are safe, because if it struck you you would have no time to see it. The speed of lightning is about 180 times that of sight. The old idea was that if you could count five the storm was a mile away, which was considered a safe distance. Sound travels at the rate of 1,142 feet a second, or about a mile in five seconds. In order to count seconds accurately many photographers start by saying to themselves: "No one thousand, one one thousand, two one thou sand, three one thousand," etc. This gives about the right space between I each count of one, two, three, etc.. il you stop at the number of seconds you want to time. With a little practice with a watch beside you this is accurate up to half a minute or more. If you see a steam whistle blowing and note the instant it stops you can j count the seconds until yon lose the i sound, and by allowing a fifth of a i mile for each second you can judge the distance. The same is true of gun or an explosion, or even of bammeriu. or any loud sounds. New York Press. MARRIAGE BY PROXY. This Curious Ceremony Is a Purely Dutch Institution. Some time ago a Boer In Pretoria was married to a girl In Amsterdam, in Holland, the ceremony constituting what the Dutch call bandschoen. or glove marriage. In spite of the fact that a distance of 6.000 miles lay between the bride in the Netherlands and tbe bridegroom ! in tbe iransvaai tbey were Just as effectually married under the Dutch law as if both had been present in the same church. The bridegroom sent to his friend, or best man. in Amsterdam a power of attorney to represent him as his proxy at the ceremony and at the same time forwarded his glove, which at the proper moment when the two were made one. was held by both tbe bride and the proxy. The wedding was duly registered at Amsterdam and at Pretoria, where the bridegroom filed an affidavit with the landdrost or magistrate. This curious form of marriage is a purely Dutch institution, the custom having originated, it is said, in the old times of Dutch-Batavian rule. It is. however, a dead letter in the Transvaal since the English took over that colony. New York Press. n IT To Your Doctor Headaches.

Macedonian General Passes 1 hrough Richmond on His Way to Scene of War

No one in Richmond is nanging on the reports of the Balkan war with greater interest and watching the returns with such suspense as is Jim Christ, a naturalixed Macedonian, and leader of the Balkan people in this section. Himself a veteran of the Macedonian uprising against the Turk in 1903. 1 Christ had to flee to America to escape the wrath of the Turkish govern- i ment. which ruthlessly disregarding the terms of the treaty, sent its soldiery into Macedonian villages to murder returned soldiers, pillage their homes, and outrage their dependents. It was with a grim feeling of unrestrained joy therefore that he grasped the hand of his old general Kuzo D. Maniaski at the Pennsylvania station last evening, as that patriot was jspeediug on his way to take command of troops on the front, and bosought him to inflict dire vengeance on their hereditary foe. Gen. Maniaski has a price on his bead. When the Macedonian uprising was over, he returned to his native village in the mountains. Soon a trusted agent brought word that 1200 Turks were scouring the hills to kill him and obtain the blood money that the Turks had offered for him dead or alive. Helps General Escape. Christ helped Maniaski make his escape to the border. The general made his way to America. He was working in Montana, watching the results of his sanguinary struggle with increasing anxiety. The old martial spirit still pulsed mightily in his breast. Late last week he received a copy of the National Herald, published by the Macedonians of this country. On the front page was a cartoon showing a Turk with dripping sword slaying women and children. That day Maniaski left Montana for St. Louis He reported at Balkan headquarters, finding there fifteen patriots, fully armed and uniformed.

Louis attracted great attention. Thousands of people lined the sidewalks and crowded the Vandalia station to see the band march forth to the war. Sustained cheers greeted the American and Bulgarian flags which the soldiers and Balkan patriots carried in the parade. "For 536 years we have suffered from the oppression of the Turk, but the day is here when a free country will be established for a people that love liberty." said Christ today, still exultant over his meeting with the grizzled leader. They Love Freedom. "We have learned to love freedom

dearly since we have enjoyed its blessings in this great land. Even after the Balkans are free, we who have taken out naturalization papers will live in America, but our hearts will go back to the native hills and little villages of our fatherland." Asked if the Balkan peoples will consent to an abatement of the war now, Christ said. "Not until Adrianople and Constantinople have surrendered, and we have marched triumphantly in the halls from which went forth the edicts that butchered our sisters, mothers and wives. We want revenge and we intend to have it." Christ expressed no opinion on the likelihood of the powers intervening, excepting to shrug bis shoulders and to remark grimly, "We are going to shoot every Turk." A Domestic Distinction.
