THE new State House, which has
already cost several millions, was
opened for business on Tuesday.
The General Assembly held its first
session there on that day. Admis-
sion to this imposing ceremonial
was by invitation, and the people
who own the building and "pay the
freight" were very much on the
outside. This may be the custom in
other states with new capitols, but
it strikes the uninitiated as triile
peculiar to say the least.

THE DEBATE DECLARED OFF.


The debate between Butler and Franklin
night at Franklin, has been declared off.
Long and ragged negotiations have been
pending between the managers Of the two
teams. but Franklin refused to debate
Several weeks ago Franklin debated the
same subject. upon which the Butler team
has been working. with Hanover College.
Since Franklin would receive the benefit of
hearing and meeting the arguments of the
negative side Of the question, the members
of the Butler team, after consulting several
of the members of the faculty. sent
stenographer, a Butler student TO Hanover
on the night of the debate. He arrived late
and got only the last three speeches He
made no effort TO conceal his name or do
his work under cover. The stenOgra pher
was watched closely by Hanover and
Franklin people. Several days later II. ..
Pritchard, manager of the Butler team, re-
ceived letters in which Franklin seemed to
think II the man was from Butler. Ter
rible injustice had been done them. Mr.
Pritchard and Prof w. ID. Howe sent re-
plies justifying Buffers action. From this
the dispute arose which has caused the de-
bate 10 be called off. Franklin positively
refuses to debate so the team has given up
work on the question
Now that the Franklin debate has been
declared OF. only one debate remains for
Butler 20 participate in this year. That is
the debate with Notre Dame on May %. at
college chapel and the question to be
argued is. Resolved, That the retention
Of the Philippines by the United States is
undesirable. Notre Dame has the mega
tive side. Buffers team consists of Messrs.
Orval Mehring. George Kern and T. S.

The sale of the shorthorn breed Of cattle

disappointment. For some reason the short

Hereford breed on Tuesday, failed to hang
together, and as a consequence the prices
on the offerings were not what they should
have been.
