Slow Work I'm Getting the Football
Team i'm Playing Shape.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
BLOOMINGTON. Ind, Sept. 2s.-Matters
are moving along a little slowly. as yet. in
football at Indiana University. The men
are not turning up as they were expected
to. Coach Horne is determined, however,
that the late beginning in practice work
shall be no barrier in the way Of develop
ing the material already on the field, and
to make up for lost time the squad is taken
out twice day-mornings and afternoons
and is getting hardened UP for real work
At present the squad is composed of the
following men: Schmidt, Wolfe, Cantwell
Coombs, Sperling, Johnson, Hetger. Kill
len, Ross. Dillon. Clevenger, Railsback
the last three are old men who played reg
ularly on the varsity team last year
Schmidt was on the scrub team last year
and was substituted on the regular eleven
strong players, however. Clevenger and
Knight are half backs and Railsback is a
star full back.
The new men now here give promise OF
fair qualities. They are all fast men and
work hard. Johnson is distinguishing him
self in the position of quarter back for
which he is a candidate, and IL is generally
conceded that he has the place already
captured. He is a good sprinter and should
opportunity afford will by his speed be able
to duplicate an ALVIN Rucker run" which
was such a sensation in the Indiana-P

HAMILTON COUNTY CAMPAIGN
Opened at NOblesvfIIe by j. Frank
Hnnly in a Strong Speech.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
NOBLESVILLE, Ind, Sept. 23.-J. Frank
Hanly. of Lafayette. formerly congress
man from this district, opened the cam
paign in this city this afternoon. Mr..
Hanly is very popular in this county. and
people were here from all over Hamilton
county to hear him. The meeting held
In Wilde Opera House, which was decor
ated with flags and pictures of Mckinley,
Roosevelt and Durbin. L. s. Baldwin. of
this city. presided over the meeting. The
audience gave Mr. Hanly earnest and close
attention. His speech was strong de-
tense or the Republican party. He first
dealt with state issues and showed by the
records that under Republican rule bust
ness methods had been applied which had
resulted in most satisfactory and eco
nomical administration of the States af-
fairs. He admitted that Republicans made
some mistakes, but said the Republican
mistakes are incidental to good administra
tion, while Democratic mistakes are funda-
mental.
Mr. Hanly, taking up national affairs,
spoke of the remarkable progress in sound
finance and the business prosperity of the
country. He showed that. in spite of the
large and extraordinary expenses attend
ing the Spanish-American war, no bonds
had been issued TO cover running expenses
since Cleveland's administration; all debts
have been paid, interest was lower than
ever before in the history of the country
and that taxes were normal as far the
national affairs were concerned. He ap-
pealed to the business sense of the people
to "let we'll enough alone.
Abiding to the colonial policy he said
that no country had ever exercised such
humanity and Christian spirit towards for
sign peoples as had our Nation. The Phil
ippines. he declared, were enjoying under
their civil-rights bill the same liberties and
privileges as the American citizen.
Mr. Hanly closed his very forcible speech
by beautiful and eloquent tribute to the
memories of Governor Mount and President
Mckinley. Republicans were very much
pleased with the speech and considered it
very able and effective opening of the cam
paign.

rated. Mary +. Brown told that after the
tragedy she heard Ertle say his wife was
still alive after he returned from giving
the alarm, and that Pyle told Ertle he
should be careful how he made such state
ments. Ertle told Pyle he did not Kill his
wife. Elias Van Skyock testified as TO
the pool of blood on the floor and the ap-
pearance OF the room in other particulars.
Other witnesses testified much in the same
line as at the trial in June.

ROSE WILL RETURN.
Defaulting Wabash Treasurer Anx-
iOus to Begin Life Anew,

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WABASH, Ind, Sept 23.-John B. Rose.
the missing ex-treasurer of the city of
Wabash, who left home on the evening of
Sept. 1, short in his accounts nearly s1l, 900.
will return to Wabash the latter part of
the present week and it is understood that
he will not be prosecuted. as he is desirous
of beginning life anew and making good
the shortage which the bondsmen must
bear.
The first public information concerning
Rose since he left here was given out to-
day. when his wife learned through the
medium of another person that her hus-
band has been within a comparatively
short distance of Wabash ever since he
departed, and is very anxious to come
back. if he can be given opportunity to
right the wrong he has done his family and
friends. He sent word that he had been
sick every day since he left. that he rec
ognizes now he made a great blunder in
leaving at all, but he says the mental
strain he had endured was such that he
was irresponsible when he boarded the
train. He asserts that he has practically
money, and his overwhelming desire
10 rejoin his wife and family dwarfs every
other consideration.
