trustees of Earlham college yesterday Inaugurating a campaign to raise that amount in November and December. The board decided the time limit would not be lengthened nor the amount decreased but that the original policy shall be adhered to. This was the decision of the board following President Kelly's presentation of a report on his interview with the Rockefeller General Education board at New York. Of the fund of 5325,000, the amount originally decided on, about $100,000 has been raised. The remainder of the money will be raised among the Friends and Earlham alumni throughout the country. V. D. Nicholson is special financial agent for the board. The $75,000 promised by the Rockefeller General Education board at New York will be given conditionally, the members of the education board promising to make this contribution only if the full amount which was decided on is raised in the specified time. Kelly Is Chairman. Members of the endowment committee of Earlham college are as follows: President Kelly, chairman; Timothy Nicholson and Benjamin Johnson, of this city; Joseph Goddard of Muncie; Amos K. Hollowell of Indianapolis; Maude D. Cox, of Windfield. .Mr. Kelly made the following statement today: "We shall continue to work for the full $325,000 so aa to secure the $75,000, conditionally pledged by the
General Education Board. The president of the college, the members of the board of trustees and others appointed by the endowment, committee will put in all available time for the next two months in the effort to reach the grand total. "In order to give V. D. Nicholson a specific task 4t was decided to inaugurate a special campaign for $25,000 for the months of November and December. One member of the Board subscribed $5,000 toward this amount and $600 was pledged by two others. Three members of the board were absent. It is quite likely that additional subscriptions will come from the board before many days. It will be seen then that for local purposes the slogan of the board is $25 000 within the next sixty days."
Judge D. W. Comstock, department commander of the Indiana G. A. R., went to Decatur, Ind., today where he will be one of the speakers at the unveiling of the monument to be dedicated to Adams county soldiers. Congressman John A. M. Adair, of Port

OFFICERS ATTEMPT TO GET MEMBERS
Y. M. C. A. Executives Make Constant Effort to Obtain
Bigger Enrollment. Although no elaborate campaign is being waged by the officials of the Richmond V. M. C. A. there is a constant effort being made to get members. The three dayB' campaign which was o have been made October 22. 23, and 24 was finally abandoned owing to unfavorable conditions of the weather at that time. The official board of directors has been busy among the merchants of the city recruiting the the sustaining memberthip of the "V." and at this time a decided increase has been made. The campaign this year has extended more among the working classes in an effort to get the masses interested in the work of the association.

ESTATE EXECUTORS SEEK CORA HAIGHT
Executors of a large estate In the West are seeking information ad to the whereabouts of Miss Cora Haight. formerly a milliner in this city. Miss Haight is one of the heirs at law to a portion of the property and it is necessary to locate her before a division of the estate can be made. A letter to Postmaster Haas says Miss Haight came to Richmond in 1S69 and operated a milliner store for several years. The writer of the letter believes she was married a few years after her arrival here, but is not certain. Postmaster Haas was unable to furnish any information concerning the whereabouts of Miss Haight and referred the writer to the county clerk, who by consulting county records may be able to find whom she married.

Another meeting will b held next week.

bus which presented "Mr. Bob," a musical comedy, played to a packed house at the Gennett theatre last night. The principals and chorus carried their parts creditably for amateurs. Miss Marie O'Brien as the etage-struck maid, won the largest share of approval from the audience by her clever interpretation of the part. Miss Irene Hart, as "Mr. Bob," was exceptionally good. Others who deserve special mention are Benton Barlow, as Mr. Brown, and Howard Messick, who took the role of a college man. The singing and dancing of the chorus was the best seen in an amateur performance for a long time.

Indigestion Overcome Overcome by Simple Remedy Hurried and careless habits of eating, irregular meals and foods that do not harmonize, tend to weaken the digestive organs and result in different forms of stomach trouble. If you are one of the unfortunates who have drifted into this condition, eat simple foods only, slowly, regularly and take Vinol, our delicious cod liver and iron tonic Mrs. H. J. Smith, Thomasville, Ga says: "I suffered from a stomach trouble, was tired, worn out and nervous. A friend advised me to take Vinol. My stomach trouble soon disappeared and now I eat heartily and have a perfect digestion and I wish every tired, weak woman could rave Vinol, for I never spent any money in my life that did me so much good."
The recovery of Mrs. Smith was due to the combined action of the me
dicinal elements of the cods' livers-
aided by the blood making and strength creating properties of tonic iron, which are contained in Vinol.
We will return the purchase money
every time Vinol fails to benefit. Leo
