C01ERSVILLE NOW OVER A BAD SCARE "Infernal Machine" in Court House Attic Only Bottle of Sour Cream.
CONNERSVILLE, Ind., March 27. Claude Prusler, county school superintendent, was the innocent cause of the fear that an infernal machine was planted in the court house attic. A bottle of cream delivered at his office, forgotten, soured, and taken to the attic by accident, explained away the ''infernal machine" theory today. The bottle stopper was partly perforated and a morsel of waste covered with coal dust gave the impression of a fire blackened fuse end. The court house janitor said today that the attic in which the bottle was found is an easy place in which to get scared. It is dusty, dingy, silent and badly lighted. A two-bushel sack filled with the blood stained garments which figured in the Maud Wilson jnurder trial hangs from a rafter. An old skull which has been about the court house untold years grins from a corner and the janitor says the dormer windows have an odd way of rattling when there is no wind at all.

SAYS COLORED MAN MUST GET TRAINING
To express to Richmond negroes their conviction that the salvation of the colored population lies in industrial education. Rev. J. W. McDaniel raA Rev. S. C. Peters, agents of the Enterprise Institute of Chicago, are in Ihe city and are speaking before colored audiences. The institution with which they are eonnected is conducted along lines vhich characterize the Tuskegee institute of which Booker T. Washington is head. "Whale we cannot reasonably expect a great deal of the colored people in fifty years of freedom, it is obvious that the race cannot advance unless trained in work. Because they have never had opportunity to secure Industrial education, most colored men have been forced to remain laborers all their lives," Rev. McDaniel aid. "We are optimistic in this matter nd believe in encouraging the black nan rather than pointing out his failures and the difficulties."
A MINSTREL SHOW WITH A vaudeville feature in which all the participants were prisoners, was given at the Auburn state prison. Relatives and friends of the prison keepers formed the audience.

RECEIVE DEGREES
Mr. and Mrs. Walter Law, of New York City, are visiting Mr. and Mrs. E. M. I.owman. Mrs. Stella Shaw and .Miss Luella Krauss were Dayton visitors last Monday. The Afternoon Reading circle was entertained Friday afternoon by Mrs. Fred C. Roberts at the home of her mother, Mrs. Rachel Stubbs, North Maple street. Mrs. Harry Baker is in the Reid Memorial hospital. Richmond, where she underwent a surgical operation a few days ago. Albert Harris is home from Defience college to spend a couple weeks with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Harris. Mrs. V. A. Miller returned to her home iti Cincinnati Tuesday after a visit with local relatives and friends. A special meeting of Bolivar IOdge of Masons will be held Tuesday evening for the purpose of conferring the M. M. degree upon a couple candidates. Mrs. J. M. Schell has gone to Chicago to spend a month with her sister, Mrs. William L. Reed. The regular monthly tea of the Missionary society of the Melhodist church will be held next Wednesday afternoon.

The repair work now being done on Wayne county roads put them in a clasB by themselves in Indiana. W. O. Jones, county highway commissioner, believes he can make almost new roads at a great saving to the county, by using the special model graders he has purchased. The steam roller which the county commissioners purchased last year, is doing the work of sixteen horses, it is estimated by Mr. Jones. It Is pulling two big "Road King" graders which ordinarily required from six to eight horses each. J. E. Adams of Indianapolis and A. E. Wilson of College Corner spent all day yesterday inspecting the methods of grading and working over the National road. They came here for the purpose of inspecting a hitch which Mr. Jones uses. By the use of the hitch the steam roller is able to pull the two graders with one trip instead of requiring a trip for each side of the road. Grades Mile a Day. About a mile of road a day can be graded with the new graders which, after only one trip, leaves the roads crowned and in the proper shape. To complete the work and practically make a new road, the use of the steam roller is all that is required. The method used here is practically the same, with more advanced machinery, that is used in certain parts ct Ohio. Instead of buildinE new roads
the same material is constantly used and is thrown to the middle of the road to form a crown. The Ohio road man stated that few I new roads have ever been built in his ! community and on some of their best I
reads, the same material placed on it almost a half century ago, is still being worked over.
CONCORD, N. H., March 27. Harry K. Thaw's last brief against extradition was filed in federal court here today. William TraverB Jerome already has filed his final brief. Judge Aldrich is expected to set a date for his final hearing and after that hearing to give his decision on Thaw's petition for a writ of habeas corpus. The Thaw attorneys urged that the "purpose of the state of New York to return Thaw to Matteawan makes this a misuse of extradition laws to accomplish their ends. "If extradition- is refused and if New York appeals, Thaw is entitled to bail as a matter of rights," it is contended.
NEW WAY TO BEAT BILL AT GROCERY
PARENTS TO MEET GARFIELD FACULTY Questions relative to the work and welfare of the student will be discussed at the meeting of the faculty and patrons of the Garfield school, tonight. The meeting will begin at 7:30 o'clock and all parents and others interested in the work of the school are urged to attend. The purpose of the meeting primarily is to bring about a closer co-operation between patron and faculty. It is the idea of the principal of tlie school to meet the parents of the students and to discuss methods of work that will improve the standard of the work done.
CHICAGO, March 27. Arthur Simonsen, an elevator operator, figured out a new way to pay his grocery bill without giving up any money. Today he began serving ' two months in the house of correction. Mrs. Simonsen is very attractive. She called Charles W. Karris, the grocer, on the telephone and asked him to come down to the corner saloon and "talk- over" the bill of $27.50. Karris was thirsty and Mrs. Simonsen was wise to drink a glass of beer. As they were sipping from two large schooners, Simonsen, outraged at finding his wife there, drew a revolver, but agreed not to shoot if Karris would sign the receipt for the grocery bill.
SEEK TO ANNEX EARLHAM COLLEGE
MINISTER ACTS AS LABOR ARBITRATOR
INDIANAPOLIS, March 27. Rev. George G. Burbank, pastor of the St. George Episcopal church, sitting as neutral arbitrator, today ruled that members of local painter's union No. 47 shall receive BO cents an hour, an increase of 24 cents over the present scale. This agreement will remain in effect two years. The decision was signed by Walter Wise and George Klrkhoff, representing the building contractor's association and C. F. Horton and Charles Sims, representing the building trade council.
Attempts to annex Earlham college to the city wil be made some time during the present city administration. City officials desire to tage in the college in order to lessen the burden of
probable public improvement on other
tax payers. If the college were annexed it could then be compelled to pay special assessments for improvements. It would also give the dormitory students voting rights. It is also probable that attempts will be made to take in outlying suburbs. This would work to advantage to both the city and the suburbs as it would give the city a bigger revenue and would give the latter public improvements, fire and police protection.
C. C. TABERNACLE ALMOST COMPLETED
The Central Christian church purchased 500 chairs Wednesday, for the adult class rooms in their new tabernacle church. The main auditorium will be seated with pews. The building is just about enclosed and work was begun yesterday on the concrete floor.
