To the Editor or the indianapolis Journal:
The statements generally published in Indiana
that drew out my mothers bank account with
out her knowledge by means of signed checks

are false in every particular. My mother had
an interest in the Comet published by me at
Lafayette, Ind The venture would probably
have been success If we had had a little more
money to hold it up until its circulation, which
was growing, became self-sustaining. Every
check drawn on the bank was with Mrs. Stems

days before the paper suspended Mr.. B. F. John

THE oRAToRICAL ROW.

Probability that the Fractional Fight Will Re-
suit in the Association Disbanding.
The State Oratorical Association is badly dis
rupted. as result of the disgraceful row be-
tween the rival factions from the State Uniyer-
sity, and there is some probability that the or
ganization will go to pieces. An unsuccessful
effort was made yesterday to bring together the
rival factions upon some basis of compromise.
All interested consented to the payment of the
expenses of the contest, which amounted to 1858,
leaving On hand 4 balance of $48 from the re-.
eeipts of Thursday night
1t is claimed that the trouble at the meeting
on Thursday afternoon originated from the
ection of the executive committee in CONSTITUTING
itself the authority TO pass credentials SO
that the question was simply one of whether or
not the old executive officers belonging to the
beaten factions. would resign power or would
revoiutionize the organization.

Singing Ont Of Tune.

Musical Critic in Albany Express
Singing out Of tune" says Armand Semple,
lis not always to be attributed to defect of ear,
nor is it permanent defect. 1t may arise from
one of many causes, such Indigestion. howev-
er produced, severe bodily fatigue undue emo
ton, over-practce. ili-health, and, in fact. any
cause producing temporary arrangement of the
vocal organs"
In my opinion, one of the chief causes of faulty
intonation is the extravagant employment of ex-
trene high notes. by which means they lose their
pnre tone, being enfeebled by the overstrain,
which makes them deficient in sustaining and
supporting power just think of the result of
constantly stretching piece of elastic. and you
have an exact instance of what takes place when
the vocal cords are continuously put on the
strain which is necessary in the production of
high tones.
