Messrs. Russell and Miller, OF Union.
vile, have entered the commercial
school.
Mrs. st. Johns and Miss Gelston have
been confined to their rooms most of the
week by illness.
Martin j. Stormzand was taken into
Zeta Sigma Monday, and Esther Bruske
and Ethel Sober into Alpha Theta.
The girls now have two strong basket
ball teams organized and games are
played in the gymnasium each evening.
Dr. Bruske made an interesting speech
on his return from the Synod Of Michi.
gan Tuesday morning. While absent
he secured a mammoth sharks egg for
the museum.
The prospects for strong basket ball
team this winter are good. Schenck,
Anderson, Kratzenberg, Jennings and
Hyney of last year are back, and there
are plenty of aspiriants among the new
men.
The football team plays at Big Rapids
today where it meets the Ferris Indus
trial school. The latter team made a
comparatively good showing against u.
of M. on Wednesday and the game will
be stiff one.
Next Saturday, oct. 81, the only re.
naming game on the home schedule
will be seen on Davis field, when the
team will meet Albion for a second
time. Games at Kalamazoo and Olivet
will close the season.
Last Saturday afternoon the scrub

the strong team Of the Normal School.
During the first half the scrubs were
carried off their feet and the Normal

CLIMATIC CURES.

The influence of climatic conditions
in the cure of consumptiouisvery much
overdrawn. The poor patient, and the
rich patient, too, can do much better at
home by proper attention to food diges-
ton, and a regular use of German Syrup.
Free expectoration in the morning is
made certain by German Syrup, so is a
good nights rest and the absence of
weaking cough and debilitating night
sweat. Restless nights and the exhaus.
ton due to coughing, the greatest dan.
ger and dread of the consumptive, can
be preventive or stopped by taking Ger
man Syrup literally and regularly.
Should you be able to go to a warmer
cline, you will find that thousands Of
consumptives there, the few who are
benefited and regain strength are those
who use German Syrup Trial bottles,

ALMA vs.. ALBION.

Last Friday the team played its Sec
ond intercollegiate game at Albion
The game was lost 10 to 6. In practice
he team had showed much improve
ment and there was hope that the game
would be victory. Albion. however,
had heavy team and in the first half
had everything her own way. Several
of Alma's men were in poor physical
condition. Bangs and Hurst played,
although both were weak. Hyney had
a sprained ankle and Anderson was in
jured in the early part Of the game.
On the first kick off Alma received the
ball and advanced it five yards on the
first down. There she fumbled and Al
bion secured the ball and scored in
three minutes. The second kick off
was received by Albion and she slowly
worked it down the field for touch
down The third came just at the close
of the first half. Alma repeatedly Sc
cured the ball, only to lose it on downs.
In the second half the team took a
wonderful brace and most Of the half
was played in Albion's territory. After
ten minutes of play the ball was forced
10 within one foot OF Albion's goal.
There tumble occurred, but Therry Sc
cured the ball and carried it through
the crowd over the line. Darkness pre-.
vented further play.

Disturbance with His Family
but was Arrested.

Last Thursday night Edwin Warren,
living in the southwest part of town.
got filled up on booze and after arriving
at his family domicile proceeded to ex-
uberate. The language used was not
very edifying and the neighbors object
ed. The following morning warrant
was sworn out for his arrest on the
charge of using indecent and immoral
language in the presence OF women and
children. The warrant was served Sat-
urday morning by Undersheriff Button
and when arraigned before Justice
Chadwick, Warren pleaded not guilty.
although at the time too full of liquor TO
realize what he was doing. AS he de.
manded trial and the justice commit
ted him TO the county jail in lieu of bail,
he was placed in the village lookup to
await until the undersherif would have
the opportunity TO take him to Ithaca in
the afternoon. When Mr.. Button went
TO look for his man in the afternoon he
found that this bird had flown, the lock
TO the Jail having been picked very skill
fully. By keeping close watch, how
ever, he found his man again Monday
morning and as he had sobered up he de-
cided TO plead guilty. Justice Chadwick
gave him 60 days at the Detroit house OF
correction, where he was taken that
same day by Mr.. Button.
