The Indianapolis lress takes occa
sion to Un ture liepublieans for criti
cising Olney, et al., for coming out
in favor of Uryauism. It says, "np
reason exists to doubt the honesty of
motives actuating Oluey." There is
noway to judge men's honesty" of
motives except by their record. If
their course is inconsistent nothing
but a lack of intelligence can excuse
them from the charge of dishonesty.
This rule holds in every court of the
land. No matter how high the stand
ing of a witness may be the value of
his testimony depends uKn its con
sistency. If his story is inconsistent
the jury will credit him with im
proper motives and dishonesty. The
more intelligent the witness is in
such eases the less weight is given
his testimony. If Mr. Olney were
ignorant his inconsistency might, to
some extent at least, be excused.
Hut he is intelligent and has no right
to claim immunity from the rules
which apply toall witnesses in courts
of justice or before the bar of public
sentiment. He has gone back on his
record, deliberately made, and his
motives are justly impugned.
To say that Republicans were
greatly elated over the meeting at
the rink last night is drawing it
mildly. President Schurman's
speech was altogether out of the or
dinary. It was such a clear, candid
and forcible presentation of the is
sues involved in the present cam.
paign that there was no possible
room for doubt or misunderstanding
on the part of any intelligent man o
woman who heard the speech. His
defense of President Mclvinley':
Philippine policy was simply unau
swerable. Speaking; as he did from
the standpoint of an eminent scholar
profound thinker, and, above all, one
who as president of the l'hilippine
commission had extraordinary faeil
ities for studying this question, his
words had the weight of authority
and carried conviction to every mind
capable of comprehending the sim
plest proposition. The speech of
Fred Landis, the young sycamore of
the Wabash, was a happy conclusion
to the magnificent meeting. I lis
unique characterizations of Bryan
and Uryani-sm set the audience wild
with good-humored enthusiasm. His
points were clean eut, sharp and
stiuging and they went straight to
the mark. Mr. Schurman's con
servatively worded diagnosis of
Bryan's glaring inconsistencies
and dishonesty had well prepared the
audience for the vollies of sarcasm,
keen wit and scathing denunciation
that Lahdis poured into the Popo-
eratic camp like a rapid-firing gun.
AT EARLHAM.
The Speeches by the Gentlemen Who
Visited There Yesterday.
The speeches of Messrs. Schurtnan.
Watson and Iandis, at Karlbam ccl-
l-?e yesterday afternoon were mas
I terpies of tact and appropriate
ness. Each said just enough not to
! make himself tedious, and to interest
the students and faculty. President
Schurtnan talked briefly of the posi
tion the college and university man
is taking in relation to the practical
affairs of life. He paid quite a con
siderable compliment to the Karlham
alumni who have made Cornell Uni
versity their post graduate home.
and said that not one had ever as
! sumed that relation that had not done
credit to the institution they left and
t tie one they had adopted. Mr. atson

SAPHO.
A theatrical event of more than
ordiuary importance will take place
in this city this evening, when the
Olga Nethersole's version of Paudefs
"Sapho' will be given in the den
nett theater. Certain writers
throughout the country have endeav
ored tocreate a strong feeling against
the plav, but the great American
public has flocked to the theater inj
which Miss Nethersole was playing!
in order to see and judge for itself.
-M OM AS IX THE CASE
is attracting very appreciative audi
ences and certainly deserves crowded
houses. Heading the cast is the in
imitable comedy team, Bartlett &
May, the former tall, angular, a fine
contortionist: the latter a winsome
and diminutive little lady; both ex
ceedingly clever. The audience can
not get enough of their specialties
The company is clean and lively and
there certainly are no dull moments.
Wheeling, W. Va., Intelliireneer,
February 20, liW. At the Phillips
oiera hoxise Tuesday, September 25.
Prices 25, 35 and 50.
A BELL BOY.
The coming of this attraction re
calls to the average theater-goers
pleasant recollections of eccentric
comedians and pret ty girls and a
wealth of songs and dances in the
latest up-to-date fashion belongs to
that class of theatrical entertain
ments called, for the lack of a better
name, musical comedy, which, what
ever shortcomings that may have,
possesses at least one great advan
tage their story is never so intricate
or essential to tne success of the en
tertainment that liberties cannot be
taken with it to almost any extent
so long as they result in improve
ment. Consequently a first class
musical comedy though appearing
season after season under the same
name is virtually a new show each
year. Such is the ease with A
liell Boy" which will apxiear at the
Phillips" opera house on next Satur
day night.

NOVEL JUNGLE DANCE.
Newport Man Tranafornta Carrlaare
llonaie Into an African Forf at.
P. F. Collier gave his friends among
the cottagers at Newport a hunt dinner
dance the other night, which was one
of the novel features of the season.
Fays the New York Press. It was to
have leen given in the pavilion at Bai
ley's Beach, but the weather was
threatening in the afternoon, and Mr.
and Mrs. Hermann Oelrichs offered Mr.
Collier the use of their large carriage
house.
This was transformed Into an Afri-
can Jungle, and in the trees and grass
were all kinds of animals and birds
and snakes, illuminated with electric
lights that shone through their mouths
and eyes in a strangely fascinating
manner. The Idea of Mr. Collier was
well carried out. and Newport never
saw before such a singularly weird dec
orative effect. A dance followed the
dinuer.
The Cnrae of China.
The appetite of the palace for tribute
has been that of the two daughters of
the horse leech, continually crrins
"Give, give!" and government has been
one vast system of bribes, "squeezes"
and wholesale robbery, says John
Foord in North American Review. Of
fices great and small have been a mat
ter of purchase, and the purchaser !.3
been mainly intent on making the most
of his bargain. Official peculation is ;
the curse of China and the root of all
the evils from which it is suffering.
Let that be cored or abated, and the !
people who starve while palace favor
ites grow rich can be made to see that
the foreigner may be the Instrument of
their well being, "the advance agent of
prosperity." Of all the punishments
that western civilization can contrive I
as a penalty for the misdeeds of the
empress dowager and her clique of ob
scurantist advisers none would be so
exquisitely painful or so productive of '
results In the highest degree beneficial
to the world as to deliver the govern
ment of China into the hands of honest
Chinamen.

Cpon Answer to That Qncstkm May
Hintfe Jim Howard's I-ate.
Frankfort, Ky.. Sept. 21. Did Jim
Howard have a mustache on Jan. oO?
On that question iu a great measure
depends his lilierty, in-rhaps his life.
The witnesses for the defense includ
ing the defendant himself, all state
that on Jan. 2-., and for days before,
his face was clean shaven. Bownian
Haines, Beu Bake and James F.
Daly who have identified Howard an
the man they saw on the Soth of Janu
ary, swear that he had a mustache.
Tuere goes Jim Howard clean
shaven and tetter dressed than any
man in town, if he keeps on that way
lie will never be able to prove that he
is a fool.".
According to his testimony ex-State
Senator Ed Parker made that remark
in London on Jan. 2l where he saw
Howard on the street. Mr. Parker ex
plained that the reason be had sam
this was that Howard was then at
Iontlon to appear for trial for the mur
der of George Bker and his plea was
to be insanity.
The defense is resting Its case on the
alibi claimed for Howard and is not
paying any attention to the claim of
tlie nrosecution that the shot came
from the secretary of state's office and
other collateral matters which figured
largely in tlie trial of Caleb Towers.

I had arrived from the west and went
in for racuig with U th feet. A friend
of mine owned a fast 2-year-old maid

was well trained, but somehow wae

great deal of faith in the horse and
backed the animal every time it ran.

That's all right. he said, 'but I

goes through I'll have all the money 1

gratulate him. To my surprise, be

could not for the world make out what
was the matter. 1 thought perhaps
his success had turtntl his head.
"Jim. 1 said, 'what is the matter
with vou? I'm surprised. You never
acted like this before. There is some
thing certainly tlie matter. Out with
it. I say, or else I shall uever have any
thing to do with you in the future:
'I kuow I have not been carrying on
right, Frank.' he said, 'but if yon went
through what 1 have during the past
ten hours you certainly would not
blame me. Frank. I cannot look an
honest man straight In the face after
today. I stood to win foO.OOO. but I'm
penniless now. It's all because I was
greedy and refused to part with an ex
tra $10. As you are no doubt aware.
my horse ran second today. He might
have won had I used better judgment
and discretion.'
"Then he went on and told me the
following story: He had told all the
other jockeys in the race that he de
sired to win and unfolded his scheme.
Seven horses ran. and the Jockeys had
their instructions. They were to let
mv friend's horse win. AH of the
jockeys with the exception of one re
ceived a ticket on the prospective win
ner. My friend's horse was quoted at
20 to 1. and the six jockeys had tickets
which called for 2imj to $10. Some
how or other the seventh Jockey got
wind of this and approached the train
er of my friend's horse atout It. Th
trainer told him to see Jim. which he
did. Jim told him to go to the devil.
He said: "Go away, boy, and don't
bother me. You haven't got a chance
to beat my horse, and I am not afraid
of you anyway. I got $10 left, but you
shall not have it.' The jockey persist
ed that he could win if he tried anil
told Jim that he ought to be let in ou
the deal. Jim was obdurate and re
quested tlie jockey to go alniut his busi
ness. Jim somehow had scraped un

"Well, the race was soon off, and bis
horse was leading In the stretch by
five lengths. He thought it was all
over but the explanations. On the run
home his horse was still ahead by a
good margin, and In the excitement the
seventh jocke"y, the one to whom lie
had refused to give a ticket, was for
gotten. But the jockey had predicted
correctly, and with a burst of speed
that took the breath away from the
spectators the outsider came to the
fore and beat my friend's horse out at
the post by a short head. Well, when
it was all over and the numbers had
gone up and my friend's horse had
been beaten Jim realized what a fool
he had been. For the sake of an ex
tra $10. which he certainly could have
spared, he lost the fortune. Jim had
only played the horse straight, and
this time he was clean broke. Jim
was the sorest man you ever saw and

stood C feet 7 In his stockings and wa

guiding, he was keeper of the county
jail at Lake Pleasant, and the county
allowed him 50 cents a week board for
each man. This meant careful plan

fellow of resource, used to take hi
.prisoners off moose hunting, that they
might earn their board. It is related
of one victim that after having been

-1 heartily Indorse it. , I know that
no college has broader opportunities
for student self aid than Yale, and the
numlier or applications we still receive
from young men who are eager to work
their way through the university Indi
cates that It is generally felt that Yale
Is still a thoroughly democratic college,
where the student without means Is
respected initially with the rich."
Professor Kitchel has been assigned
an office in the Administration build

will open communication between the

of New Haven who wish to employ
