CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind, Feb. IL
Within the next few days a very important
question will be set at rest in Wabash Col
lege-that Of athletic supremacy between the
sophomore and freshman classes The test
will occur next Thursday night at Music
Hall. and it will doubtless be witnessed by
an audience that will tax the capacity of
the building. No one anticipates a very quiet
affair. The fun does not begin with the
rise of the curtain at Music Hall Thursday
evening, but with the opening of the ticket
sale at the box office Thursday morning. On
all such occasions as this there is a
lively scramble for seats. and the
odds" and "evens'' come together in more
or less friendly opposition. What will de-
veiop in this line next Wednesday remains
looked for.
No one ventures prediction just now as
to whether the "sophs' or the "freshies"
will win. Both classes are in rigid training
and both are hopeful. The '9s men have
rented large hall on South Washington
street, and the athletes put in most of their
spare time there. The '9Ts are practicing
chiefly in the college gymnasium. One or
two good natured brushes have occurred at
the latter PLACE recently between individual
members of the two classes, but thus far
mo e TO at 1t right has been
seniors are lining up for the coming fray
and will be , on hand en- masse: So will the
preps The latter, being odds as to their
large majority, are the enthusiastic allies of
the sophomores Consequently the freshmen
and juniors are ptted against four classes,
the middle ''prepS," senior ''preps" sopho-
mores and seniors. However, the rece ntly-
organized class of 1900 has two or three
members, and they have advised the fresh
men of their intended allegiance to the
helotrope and pink.
For the time being the coming test of
muscle Is monopolizing the interest of the
college. Everybody talks about it, and near
ly everybody has managed to work up more
, or less enthusiasm about it. Nothing else
The class collisions are looked for either
during the show or afterward The "sophs''
and 'freshieS" have agreed that whoever
wins shall have the right to celebrate with

A SLICK THIEF
Working the Trains Coming Out of Bir-
 mingham.


 mingham.
 Huntsville Mercury. A representative of the the Mercury on board Louisville and Nashville train coming out of Birmingham yesterday witnessed transaction between slick thief and a passenger, the like of which gained for the Magic City the sobriquet of Bad Birmingham.
 While the train was leaving the city limits and stopping every few hundred feet at railroad crossings, a medium sized, smooth shaved, dark complicated stranger, wearing a Knight of Pythias button on his lapel, approached a passen- ger and asked him if he could give a $10 bill for some small bills. The passenger replied pleasantly and handed out his $10 while the slick stranger was counting out one $5 and four $1 bills. The passen- ger smoothed them out on his knee, counted them and called the strangers attention to the fact that there were only S9 there. The stranger, taking the bills and running them through his fingers, re- remarking, You are right, you are right" placed silver dollar on the roll of bills. laid them on the passengers knee and fitted out the door as quick as a flash. The victim unrolled his bills and found only three $1 bills-the light fin gered gentleman having slipped out s and $1 bill while handling them.
 The passenger rushed to the door, but the thief had jumped as the train slowed up at crossing and disappeared.
