The Climaxl year $1
Methodists Are Making Chan
fees. Methodists of the United State; are
sending $200,0(0 a year to Europe to do
missionary work there ia llie Metho
dist name. Of this sum $140,000 a year
is point' into Sweden and Norway, into
Denmark and northern Germaay, coun
tries long counted Christian, and them
selves doing missionary work elsewhere.
About 75,000 Methodists ar now in
these countries, the outgrowth of Amer
ican enterpri.e and zeal. Property
worth more than $1,000,000 has been ac
cumulated, in part of course, through
local contributions. For years amounts
given by America: ! to these European
Christians for advance work has slowly
increased, it having been only $125,000
ten years ago.
Now a new plan is to be adopted. In
deed, it is in part entered npon already.
It grows out of new conditions in south
ern Europe and in Syria and the Holy
Land.' The Italy work, taking $55,000
a year and having 5,000 members, is to
be strengthened but another advance is
to be made in Bulgaria, Macedonia, Al
bania, Asiatic Turkey and Palestine.
Methodists feel that here are far more
needy fields than exist in northern Eu
rope, and now that the outcome of the
war with Turkey has opened the way
they are quick to take up uew plans and
make the change. Workers will be
transferred as fast as possible. Metho
dists have work in Bulgaria and Jerusa
lem. A study of countries captured
from the Turk is to be made at once.
Education, as well as planting new
churches, will be entered on, and ls
much effort given to sanitation and
health as possible.
NORMAL NOTES.
Fiord, the Magician, who is to give
the next entertainment in the Normal
lecture course, is without doubt the most
skillful exponent of pure sleight-of hand
that has ever appeared upon the Lyce
um platform, lie has followed this line
of work lor over 20 years. He was the
pioneer and still maintains the lead. He
has invented, designed and presented
more brilliant magical experiments than
any magician now living. He is con
stantly at work upon some Dew and
wonderful mystery, and so startling are
some of the effects and so nearly perfect
his art, that he has but to command the
most unheard-of things to happen and
they transpire. lie will be ably assisted
by Mohala, the mind-reader, and a re
ally talented musician.
"Mai'ic that is Magic" is what the
Fioyd oLo. as the next attraction at the
Normal lecture course Every feature
on their program is thick and broad and
long with entertainment; the kind that
is utterly devoid of the conventional and
aui ique. Their 20 years of experience
has placed them in the front ranks of
America's greatest artists. They are en
tertainers of the very highest class. All
of theii wonderful experiments in mod
ern magic, mind-reading and illusions
are strictly original. An evening of
startling surprises, refined mirth and
pleasing music is assured all all who at
tend this unique performance.
The Floyds, magicians, who are to be
the next entertainers in the Normal lec
ture course, have arranged a program
for this season, consisting of tricks and
illusions that surpass anything hereto
fore achieved in the Held of modern mag
ic. The mind read inc. or second siirht
act by Mohala, is a unique feature, be
ing unlike anything of its class, an ex
hibition which not only affords amuse
ment, but at whch scientific minds
marvrl. It is a gift, and successful im
itation of her work is impossible.
The only supreme novoliy upon the
the Lyceum platform this season is the
Floyds, magicians, illusionists and en
tertainers, who are to appear as the next
number of the Norma! lecture course.
They present a program filled with new
and startling features, pleasing music,
marvelous mind-reading and prestidigi
tation. The Floyds offer an entertain
ment that is well worth the price of a
ticket to the entire course.

Kills a Fox Worth $1,000.
Jack Em boy, an employe of a saw
mill near Silver Lake, California, was
greatly disturbed and angered by the
howling of tho coyotes and the barking
of dogs one night last week, and took a
shot at them through the window. The
next morning he thaaked his lucky star
when he found the chance shot at the
disturbers of his peace had killed a sil
ver grey fox, the pelt of which is esti
mated to be worth $1,000. Since Em-
boy made his fortunate shot there is a
great deal of shooting noticeable in that
neighborhood at night, and it is evident
some of the other citizens are trjing to
emulate his example.
To The Honorable Mayor of
Richmond.
Tits Climax:
You are hereby requested to
follow the example of several of the
mayors of different towns in the State
for the conservation of the morals of the
youth within their cities, to issue an or
dinance to the police to suppress im
moral dances, such as the Turkey Trot
and other such ilk, and order that they
shall not be shown at our Theatres,
moving pictures, or danced in the Halls
used for dancing purposes by the youth
of the city. Respectfully,

(By G. a Wilson.)
In a triangular debati"g league, com
posed of State University Law School,
Cincinnati Law School and Indianapolis
Law School, State won the debate at
Indianapolis Thursday night and lied
with the Cincinnati Law School here.
The lie was due to one judge being ab
sent, the vote s anding one for Stale,
the other for Cincinnati. It was de
clared a draw. The question debated
was, "Resolved that there should be
municipal control of public utilities."
The team that went to Indianapolis
had the negative side of the question
This team was composed of Stonewell
fackson, Harry 15. Miller and Mr. Mor
rison. The team that went against Cin
cinnati at home had the affirmative.
This team was composed of Messrs. Jett,
Berkshire and Uiydon. This is the first
time that State University has compet
ed with schools outside of the Slate, but
she made an excellent showing and has
received a challenge for a debate with
Vanderbilt.
In a series of declamatory contests
held in behalf of the W. C. T. U.. Miss
Ina DarnalL, of Louisville, won the first
contest, which was held at the Lexing
ton Opera House Saturday night. The
eight'eontestants from State University
are: Misses Loi-j Bartlett, Ina DarnalL
Arena London aad Lei Roberts, Messrs.
G. R. Smith. 11 D. Graham, Paul Har
ris and G. C. Wilson. These eight speak
ers are soon to appear at Georgetown
and Paris and two more medals will be
awarded.
P-of. J. T. C. Noe has been in Phila
delphia for the past week attending an
educational meeting. Prof. Nee is the
head of the Educational Department
here.
Slate closed the basket ball season on
Saturday night in a double header game.
The girls defeated the team from Louis
ville, thus giving them the champion
ship of Kentucky. The "Wild Cats"
lost to the Christ Church tejm of Cin
cinnati by a score of 30 to 19.
Four handsome medals were awarded
to the championship wrestlers in the
four different wefghts last Wednesday
night. This was the best amateur
wrestling ever sen here. J. E. C. John
son won the heavy weight, S. A. Blaoch
ett, the middle weight, O. M. Edwards,
the welter weight, and C. E. Barber, the
light weight.
Hats Off!
Hats off to William Howard Taft!
The President who goes out today did
surely h'ud Jordan a hard road to travel!
He that journeyed from Jerusalem to
Jericho found not a harder
"lnjins on the upper way.
And death upon the lower,"
every mile beset with peril; the- Tariff
s'u.k holes; the Ballinger morass; the
Pinchot ambuscade, though of pop-guns,
exasperating if not murderous; the yawn
ing chasms and impassable gulfs of pro
gressivis'n, as, still surviving, he came
down the home stretch, the Jersey steeple-chaser
forging ahead and finding a
bridge over the bodies of the slain piled
up in the ditch which Roosevelt made.
Hats off to Willism Howard Taft. He
was called to answer many sins not his
own. There is something worse in this
wicked old world than defcal; dishonor.
All the Teddy's on top o' dirt cannot lay
that cross of humiliation upon the back,
nor press that cross of shame upon the
brow of Wil iam Howard Taft. Hell is
full of desecrated friendships; broken
pledges; unexpiated sins and unescape
able mistakes; but heaven has still one
h ilo left for him. "He Done His Duly
as He Seen It," writ all over in letters
of living light.
Hats off to William Howard Taft!
Long may he live to show what an ex-
President ought to be! Nature herself
may stand uncovered and exclaim, "Be
hold a Man !" Courier-Journal.

I got what 1 ordered, but first had to

When the boxos were opened I stood

And said to myself goods are better at
home.
The stove that I sent for had only three
legs.
What's the use of a stove if it hasn't its
pegs?
When I looked in the oven it was crack
ed in the dome.
Then I wished to old Mike I had bought
it at home.
I'm now all filled up with this buy in

I'll buy where I sell my good butler and

If the Lord will forgive me, no more will
I roam,
Hereafier I'll spend all my dollars at
