LINCOLN LEAGUE
To Convene on the Birthday Ami
versary of President.

Evansville, Ind, Feb TO- The
Lincoln league meeting is of espec-
ial Importance this year owing to the
fact that a national campaign is at
hand and at the same time the most
important of the state officers are to
be filed There will naturally be
some little rivalry for the Offices in
the league and there are now three
candidates for president, VIII A.
Stevens, Of Columbus; G. w. Me
Guire, of Terre Haute, and Senator
Samuel Crumbaker, of Evansville.
George d. Helman, Of Evansville, will
ask a reelection as secretary, it is
understood, and he will probably be
opposed by Col w. w. Hoffman, the
custodian of the state house Treas
urer Morton s. Hawkins, of Portland,
has at present no opposition for re-
election. w. C. Geake, of Fort
| Wayne, is candidate for vice pres
ident, to succeed Mr.. Stevens. who
seeks to be made the head of the or
ganization. So far as announced
there is but one candidate for the
next meeting of the league. Vim
eennes is the city and large num-
Der of Republicans of that place will

Of their city Inasmuch. however. as
| the legislature will be in session al
the time of the next meeting it is
possible that the league will decide
to meet in Indianapolis.

A LONG NAME
Occurs on the Records at the Court
House

Hon. John L. Rupe was in remin-
iscent mood this morning. and while
in the county clerk Office the
thought occurred to him that away
back IN the sixties 2 marriage license
was issued to man with a name as
long as the shortest day in winter,
and the name had so fixed itself upon
hls mind that he could call it. Not
doubling Mr.. RUPEES word, but rath-
er out of spirit of curiosity, Gus
Huey hunted up the record and
found the following facts:
On the 23d of March, 1869, a mar
rage license was issued by deputy
clerk. John M. Cook. to William Gil
dee Leroy Franklin Kincade Eudorus
Dawson Moore to Martha Bales.
William W. Dudley was clerk and
Nlmrod II. Johnson. father of Henry
z. johnson, was Judge of the crimi-
lnal court.
1t Is believed to be the longest
name on record.

ance Goes to the Quaker
Institution.

Exum Elliott, the notice Of whose
death is given elsewhere, was a good
friend to Earlham college during his
life and did not forget his favorit
institution at any time. His life IL
srrance policy, amounting to $4,000.

A RARE LECTURE.
A. Class Song

DR.. Wad-El-Ward, of Jerusalem,
Palestine, gave his famous illustrat-
ed lecture, From Dan to Beershe-
ba,' at the First M. f. church last
night. Though the audience was
smaller than the character of the
work deserved. those who were there
were delighted with the entertain
ment. When one hears the doctor he
is sure to get light on some puzzlinc
passages of Scripture. He is veri-
table mine of information on Oriental
matters.

HIGH SCHOOL
MAKING PROGRESS
ARRANGEMENTS FOR PUBLIC
ON THE EVENING OF
FEBRUARY 10.
NEW SCENERY PAINTED
For the Production of Sheridan s
"RiyaIs The Program :.
and Cast.

The program to be presented by
the Juniors at their public on the
evening of February 10th was posted
this morning on the high school bull
letin board by their class president.
1t differs materially from the pro-
gram recently given by the Seniors,
in that only the first part consists
of a play, while the rest IS of a
lighter nature.
In selecting their play the Juniors
found many points to be considered
the audience, the school work and,
above all, the dramatic ability of the
members Of the class. After due con-
sideration several scenes from Sheri-
dan s "Rivals' were chosen. This
play is so we'll known it needs but
little comment, and time spent In
the necessary preparation is well
spent and not wasted, as is often the
ease IN lighter plays.
The school board, wishing to show
their appreciation of the Juniors ef-
forts. presented them with new set
Of scenery, painted to suit the scenes
portrayed The stage will be equipped
with electricity for the evenings
performance, the work being done by
the Junior boys under the super
vision of Prof. Fiske. Therefore. this
public should surpass any. similar
performance recently given by classes
in the high school, because of a COM
plete stage equipment and standard
play.
The second part will be equally as
interesting; for the girls of the class
are preparing a drill of unique ma
ture, to be followed by the "Fools'
Dance at Midnight - This number
seems rather mysterious, but if it is
half as good as the participants
claim it to be, it will prove a marvel
of comedy.
The next number will be a tennis
drill by the boys, the performance
closing with a class song of a new
and novel nature.
Miss Katherine Schaefer. Of the
English department, is in charge OF
the entertainment.
The following is the program:

A RICH VOICE
Nine Schumann-Hein s Interest in
Poor Girl

Another instance of Madame Schu-
mann-Heink' s universally is shown
in an exchange article which is as
follows:
"Syracuse, n. Y, February o.
Eiohteen-year-old Martha Wittkow-
ski, who has a remarkably fine voice,
according to those who profess to
know, is to receive the opportunity
her talent demands
Nine. Schumann-Heink, the great
contralto, gave her a hearing while
in Syracuse recently, pronounced her
vocal gifts of the highest order and
promised the girl a career. That is if
Miss Wittl1owski will do her part,
which Mime. Schumann-Heink assur-
ed her was to work hard and intelli-
gently, and above all not to get a
'swelled head Those were Madame s
very words, and young Miss Witt
kowslli declared she would try to
avoid II and be a credit to her advis-
er.
The Girl is poor. Two years ago
while Martha was employed as a do
mestic, a visitor at the house, Mrs.
Edward JOY, heard her sing and was
amazed at the quality of her voice.
She called the attention of Prof.
Richard Calthroo and c. p. Renaud
to her, and they urged the matter of
developing her gift. Mrs. JOY has
since been paying for Miss Wittkow-
skis instructions at the College of
Fine Arts, Syracuse University

FOR THE FEEDER
go l-2 Congress st.

ut has been matter of only eight
cen months or so since alfalfa began to
revolutionize the hog business In our
part Of the state and farther west"
writes Milton Hancock, Belvue, Kan,
in the Denver Field and Farm. BE
fore that time one hooted at the idea of
feeding grown swine, much less pigs,
alfalfa hay during the winter months.
Now the feed is used to the exclusion
Of corn Our sows fed upon alfalfa are
raising Filters of from seven to eight
pigs each, and the youngsters are de,
veloping into heartier hogs than they
would be had they been raised on corn
instead Of alfalfa. The latter, we have
discovered, gives the sow more milk
and thus helps tie pigs better than
when corn Is used OH the old swine,
Every farm out our way now has from
thirty to forty acres of alfalfa, and on
It we are growing all sorts of pig
crops. We con compete with the corn
belt in growing and fattening swine
and give them big margin to spare"
WOeGl ScreenlnEH,
The value of wheat screenings is
best understood by taking some note
OF what experiment stations have done
with 1t. In the Montana experiment
station, where some comparative values
we're asceftained, it was shown that
wheat screenings were the most valu-
able for feeding to lambs, while barley
proved the most efficient for wethers.
One experiment, however, does not give
conclusive proof of the value of any
ration. Where corn is produced it will
be the universal grain ration in fatten-
ing sheep or lambs,
Roots as Stock Feed.
Turnips, carrots and potatoes contain
q large proportion of water, aud. though.
such crops are bulky, yet the actual
proportion of the solid matter taken
from the soil is small. Containing such
q large quantity Of water, they are
very succulent and are equal TO ensi-
lnge for cattle, though ensilage Is
cheaper In cost When sliced or cooked,
these crops can be fed in connection
with ground grains with more profit
than in any other manner, and they
give a greater value to the grain by
assisting digestion and keeping the
stock thrifty.
DigestibiIity of Foods.
The value Of cattle foods depends
largely upon their digestibillty. There
Is more nrotpin in straw than IN corn
fodder, but the latter is more digestl-
bic. Some coarse foods are valuable,
however, in assisting 70 digest the con-
rentrated foods by giving bulk TO the
mess and separating the materials. es-
pecially when the coarse foods are re
duced to a fne condition Even If but
q portion of the straw foods is d.
