PLEDGE THAT WAS SIGNED
President Kelly Announces That the
Lid" Will be Kept on More
Tightly Than Ever.

School was resumed at Earlham
yesterday with all the students in
the college dormitory with the ex-
ception of N. K. Mills and Lowell
Parker. The twenty students who
were given the right to return to the
dormitory on the condition that they
would sign Governor Hadley's pledge
have affixed their signatures to the
document and say they will keep it.
The pledge reads:
regard my part taken in the af-
fair Friday night as detrimental to
the college, and 1 believe that I did
wrong, and hereafter agree to abide
by the rules of the college in every
way; to observe study hours and fur
thermore / agree to aid in upholding
the authorities of the college, and
agree to take no part in any organi-
zation which tends to defy the au-
thorities.
Feeling is still intense against
Governor Hadley and the faculty for
upholding him. A large number OF
the students will 60 to the oratorical
contest at Indianapolis today but
many say they will not yell for Earl
ham.
Although President Kelly will not
allow N. K. Mills and Lowell Parker
to return to the dormitory it was
largely through the efforts of these
students that order was restored at
the college. They pleaded with the
students who were holding ont
against the authorities on their ac-
count, to return to school. Many of
the leading students at the school
said yesterday that had it not been
that Parker and Mills urged them so
strongly they would never have re-
turned to the college.
Many familiar with the situation
at Earlham say that the recent trou-
BILE sounds the death knell Of the
college dormitory. They say that at
the beginning of next year the major
ity of the upper classmen will form
clubs and room outside the school.
President Kelly yesterday an
nounced that closer rein would be
kept on the students hereafter than
ever before. He said that as insubor-
dination and riot had grown out of
pranks heretofore tolerated that the
board of trustees would consider at
its next meeting the question of barr
ing such. He said that efforts Of the
students to remove Governor Hadley
would prove fruitless as he was re-
garded as one Of the best disciplin-
arians ever at the school.

from Chicago Saturday and some
time in the near future she will leave
for New York, Philadelphia and
Boston to meet the leading artists of
those cities. They have always con-
tributed canvases to the Richmond
exhibit in the past and Mrs. John
ston will endeavor to have them send
some Of their best paintings again
this year. While east Mrs. Johnston
will arrange for an exhibit of some
of the best foreign artists.
1t has been suggested to the Off
cials of the Richmond Art Associa-
tion that the exhibit this year be held
in September in conjunction with
the Richmond Centennial exhibit.
This is regarded as impractical as
nearly all of the studies of the lead
ing artists in the country are closed
during the months of July and Au-
gust and it would be nearly impossi-
BILE to secure pictures for the exhib-

THE WARM WEATHER
OF JANUARY SERVED DRIVE
DEATH AWAY.
Were But Twenty Deaths During
Month A Decrease Over
Last Year.

According to the report of DR.. T.
Henry Davis, City Health Officer,
which will be made today, there were
twenty deaths during the month of
January, an unusually small number
for this month. The general health
of the city is reported to be excel
lent and it is evident that the warm
weather has life giving powers which
have not been appreciated.
It is expected that the number of
deaths from pneumonia, a disease
particularly prevalent during Janu-
ary, will be shown to be much small
er than usual. Several of the deaths
were caused by this disease, but SEN
ility was one of the chief causes.
There was one suicide during the
month.
At the rate of 20 deaths to the
month, the death rate of the city be-
comes IL to the thousand inhabit-
ants, for the year. The average is
13 showing that there is a consider
able decrease.

APPLY TO ATTORNEY JESSUP
And Ask That He Be Placed in
Whites Institute or a Similar
Institute.

Prosecuting Attorney Wilfred
Jessup yesterday filed petition in
circuit court on behalf of the Board
of Childrens Guardians Of Wayne
County to have Harry Hickman, aged
nine years, taken away from his par
ents and placed in Whites Institute
or some other similar institution.
Harry Hickman is the son of Mr..
and Mrs. William Hickman of Cam
bridge City.
This petition asks for the child IS
removal from his home on the fol
lowing reasons. That he is hibitual
truant and was recently expelled
from school by the Cambridge City
school board for the reason that his
conduct was such that the best in
terests of the school demanded that
he should not be permitted to remain
any longer.
1t is also alleged that the child has
practically been abandoned and
habits the streets and alleys Of the
town without restraint and has rap
idly formed vicious and immoral hab-
its and associates. The parents ad-
NIT their lack Of control over the boy
and are willing to have him sent to
some institution.

ASKS THAT MONEY
be GIVEN BACK
JOHN COOK REFUSES TO AC-
CEPT FUND RAISED
FOR HIM.
$400 HAD BEEN SECURED
By Alonzo Davenport and Sylvester
Cook to Help Rebuild His
Ruined Home.
$4oo HAD BEEN SECURED

A few days after the terrible ex-
plosion of gas at the home Of John
Cook, northeast of this city, which
resulted in the death of Mrs. John
Cook and the total destruction of the
home, Sylvester Cook of Middleboro,
a cousin of John Cook, and Alonzo
Davenport, who resides south of this
city, began to make up a purse
among John Cooks many friends in
this city and Wayne County to pre-
sent to the unfortunate man as a
testimonial Of their sympathy and
good will.
Nearly everyone who was solicited
made a contribution to the fund and
within one weeks time nearly $40O
had been raised and there were indi-
cations that the fund would grow
still larger.
A few days ago Sylvester Cook
and Alonzo Davenport informed
John Cook that they were raising a
fund among his friends for a benefit
and much to their surprise Mr.. Cook
fatty refused to take the money.
~ keenly appreciate the kindness of
my friends but I cannot take the
gift" Said Mr.. Cook 'I do not need
anyone's assistance in rebuilding my
home, I still have some money, and
money can never repay me for the
loss of my wife,
The two men who have been in
strumental in raising the fund have
reluctantly complied with Mr.. Cook IS
wishes and the money is now being
returned to all those who contribut-
ed.

Will BOND DRIVER OF WAGON
Who Was Warned of What Happen
ed by Feeling Wheels Pass
Over Child's Body.
palladium Specially

Greensboro, Ind, February l.
The life of little Rosie Barton, the
nine year old daughter of Will Bar
ton and wife, was almost instantly
crushed out this afternoon by a
heavy farm wagon driven by Will
Bond, Of near Webster.
The accident occurred on the road
Just east Of Greensboro when the lit
tie Barton girl was returning home
from school, about 3 O'Clock. Will
Bond, farmer, had brought wagon
load of corn over to Greensboro and
was hauling some lumber back to his
farm. When he was driving east on
the road from Greensboro he sud
denly noticed the wagon jolt and
looking behind, found that one of
the rear wheels had passed over the
body of girl, crushing her chest. 1t
is supposed that she was trying to
climb up on the wagon by means of
the brake on the wheel and that she
had fallen down underneath. The ac-
cident occurred at place on the
road less than three hundred yards
from her home.
Bond Immediately jumped out and
ran back to where the little girl was
lying in the road, and assisted by
Ed Dean, hurried with her to the of
fee of doctor, but before it could
be reached death had relieved her Of
her sufferings.
The little girl had been often
warned about climbing on wagons
and riding home from school, as sew
eral of the children had been ac-
custoned to doing. No one was
watching her at the time, all her
school mates having gone in the other
direction.
No blame is attached to Mr.. Bond
as he did not see her when she at
tempted to get on the wagon. The
little girl was popular among her
school friends and was known by ev-
eryone in Greensboro.

HIBBERD SCHOOL CHILDREN
Where Youngster Attends School are
Badly Frightened Over Affair
Father is Indignant.

The search for the assailant of
nine year old Ernest Quigg is still
continued by the police but up to the
present time without success. The
opinion prevails now that the man
has left the city and it is probable
that the police will send his descrip-
tion to authorities in neighboring
towns and cities.
w. H. Quigg, father of Ernest
Quigg, was at police headquarters
yesterday morning and he expressed
a belief that the man his son saw on
South A street Tuesday afternoon
was not the lads assailant as he
thought the man would not dare to
show himself in the neighborhod in
which the assault took place. Mr..
Quigg has urged the police to do ev-

JUDGE ABBOTT VERSATILE
MARRIES PEOPLE THAT BE
HAD LEGALLY SEPARATED
j. Edgar Iliff and Mary Mcclure
Were Welded Last Night
At New Home.

J Edgar Tiff and Mary Mcclure
were married last evening at their
home-to-be, 1912 North Sixth street,
by Squire Abbott. There were a
number of intimate friends present
at the wedding and an elegant sup
per was served Immediately after the
ceremony.
With this wedding Judge Abbott
establishes a record of untying and
tying marriage knots which is seldom
equaled. Over three years ago Judge
Abbott was one Of the attorneys in
the divorce suit Of j. Edgar Tiff VS..
his wife.
This knot was united after various
legal proceedings with the Judge al
ways in evidence. About month ago
Judge Abbott was an attorney in the
divorce suit Of Jesse Mcclure VS..
Mrs Mcclure. These ties were also
broken, leaving two of the parties
who had previously been hitched to
unsatisfactory life-partners, outside
the pale of married life.
1t seems that the Judge was not
out of favor and approaching his
part in untying the knots which had
been bothersome in the past he was
called upon last night to unite two
of the Divorces whom he had assist
ed to part.

President James Of University Of Illinois
Wants It in Mississippi Valley.

Urbana- Champaign, Ill. Nov. 1s (speciaD.-Presi-
dent Edmund J. James OF the University OF Illi-
ros has sent an open letter TO the trustees OF the
Andover Theological Seminary urging that It be
transferred to the Mississippi Valley The institu

has shrunk from one hundred 10 eleven at

Dr. James. IN his letter urges the choice OF
new site near one Of the great universities in the
