EARL HAM ACCREDITED
BY THE STATE BOARD
Becomes Part of the Normal
School System.
INCREASE IN ATTENDANCE.

At a meeting of the state board of
education Friday, Earlham college
was accredited for the training of
public school teachers in accordance
with the provisions of the new law
This makes Earlham a part of the
normal school system of Indiana and
teachers who do professional work
there are eligible to teach in the pub
lie schools.
In this connection it is interesting
to note that Earlham has an unusually
large attendance at the summer term
now in session, there being an in
crease of about 40 per cent over the
attendance of last year.
President Kelly left today for Terre
Haute where he will deliver the adj
dress before the graduating class of
the Indiana state normal school to-
morrow.

DR.. EDWIN L. HUGHES
MAY BECOME BISHOP
Action to This End Would Be
No Surprise.

II is possible that DR. Edwin Holt
Hughes, president of DePauw univer-
sity and we'll known in Richmond,
will be made a bishop of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church when the gen.
eraI conference meets next spring.
Several of the present bishops prob
ably will be placed on the superan-
nuated list and their places be filled
by younger men.
President Hughes connection with
DePauw has been very profitable TO
the institution. the attendance during
his four years incumbency having
grown from $50 to e77. In the event
that President Hughes is made a
bishop. the board OF trustees may find
it difficult to fill his place. President
Merlin. of Baker university, Baldwin,
Kan. an alumnus of DePauw. would
be acceptable to students and alumni.
and he might be chosen.

TENNIS PROVING VERY
POPULAR THIS SEASON
Many Players Are at the Pub
lie Fairgrounds.
TOURNAMENTS ARE TALKED

Tennis is proving a very popular
sport for many young and old men
of this city. Every day there is a
large number of players on the tennis
courts at the public Fairgrounds. The
interest is two-fold over that of past
years.
The heavy rain caught a number
of players Friday afternoon and while
the storm was on, plans were discuss
ed for tennis tournament to be CIV
en- each month during the remainder
of the summer. The first probably
will be started next week. Eight
teams will be entered in the doubles
while a single tournament probably
will not be attempted at the present
time owing to lack of interest in this
branch of the sport. The number of
entries is expected to increase as the
season progresses.

FALLING OFF A BICYCLE.
Mark Twain's Story of the Way He
Established a Record.

GStdpnShe0 RECORD
It seems a good while ago. 1 must
have been rather young for my age
then. for | was trying to tame an old
fashioned bicycle nine feet high. 1t is
to me almost unbelievable at my pres
ent stage of life that there have really
been people willing to trust themselves
upon a dizzy and unstable altitude like
that and that | was one of them.
Twichell and l took lessons every day.
He succeeded and became master Of
the art of riding that wild vehicle, but
had no gift in that direction and was
never able TO stay on mine long enough
to get any satisfactory view of the
planet. Every time l tried to steal a
look at a pretty girl or any other kind
of scenery that single moment of mat
tention gave the bicycle the chance it
had been waiting for, and | went over
the front of it and struck the ground
on my head or back before l had time
to realize that something was happen
ing. 1 didn't always go over the front
way. l had other ways and practiced
them all. But no matter which way
was chosen for me there was always
one monotonous result-the bicycle
skinned my leg and leaped up into the
air and came down on top of me
Sometimes its wires were so sprung by
this violent performance that it had
the collapsed look of an umbrella that
had had a misunderstanding with cy-
clone. After each days practice 1 ar
rived at home with my skin hanging
i'll ribbons from my knees down. i
plastered the ribbons on where they be
longed and bound them there with
handkerchiefs stepped in lotions and
was ready for more adventures next
day. 1t was always Il surprise to me
that / had so much skin and that it
held out so well. There was always
plenty. and | soon came to understand
that the supply was going to remain
sufficient for all my needs. 1t turned
out that I had nine skins, in layers,
one on top of the other like the leaves
of a book. and some of the doctors said
1T was quite remarkable.
l was full of enthusiasm over this
insane amusement. My teacher was
young German from the bicycle fac
tory. a gentle. kindly, patient creature
with a patheticaIly grave face He
never smiled: he never made a remark
he always gathered me tenderly up
when / plunged off and helped me on
again without n word. When he had
been teaching me twice n day for
three weeks | introduced a new gym
naStic-one that he had never seen be
fore-and so at last compliment was
wrung from him. thing which I had
been risking my life for days to
achieve. He gathered me up and said
mournfully, MIR Clemens. you can fall
of a bicycle III more different ways
than any person / ever saw before"

been completed for the removal of
the Taylor university from Upland to

ings at Normal City, comes an objec-
ton from Grant a. Dentler, of Marion,
the board of trustees of the institu-
ton. Dispatches from Marion state
that he is opposed to the transfer of
the property, and that he has threat
ened to file an injunction suit against
the new corporation, charging that
the Taylor university of Muncie is
trying to steal the influences and
good will of. the school at Upland
Dentier is reported as saying that the
removal of the university to Muncie
will be a plain case of larceny, as it
was not done by the consent of the
regular board of the institution. He
is reported as saying that Dr. Win
chester and several of the trustees,
called dissensionists, have attempted
to steal the good name of the univer-
sity Dentler, of Marion, says that
the matter will be taken up at the
regular meeting of the old board, July
/. He accuses Trustees Shinn, Ayres
and Smith of having conspired with
President Winchester in getting the
institution to remove to Muncie. He
saws they have no right to the title of
the property of the Upland institu-
ton

Leibnitz, one of the great men of lit
erature, who died in 1716, wished to
join a society of alchemists who We're

from the writings of the most cele-

himself, he said, did not understand q

CHINESE USE TIME STICKS.
Each Will Burn Throughout a Period
of Twelve Hours.


of Twelve Hours.
The Chinese have several contriv-
ances for keeping the time of day. The
water clock has often been described,
but the use of burning sticks is less
familiar These are described by Colo
mel Bridges in his book, Round the
World in Six Months
We bought a small bundle of time
sticks. The sticks, each of which is
thirty two inches long, are used, as
their name more or less implies, for
the purpose of measuring time. For
use by day some are especially made,
while others for service by night are
particularly constructed.
Each burns during period of twelve
hours. OF these king Alfred's can
dies" as some of our party termed
them, we bought two and from print
ed circular or advertisement which
was at the same time handed to US by
the man who sold them we learned
the following particulars:
The materials from which these time
measuring sticks are made are pre-
pared according to the directions Of
the official or imperial astronomers or
astrologers. The duration of each
time stick is adjusted according to the
clepsydra or water clock so that the
time which it indicates when burning
may be regarded as correct.
Time sticks which are manufactured
to mark the hours of the day must be
lighted at day dawn, when the lines
on the palm of the hand are just wis.,
ible, while those which are constructed
to mark the hours of the night must
be lighted at dusk, when the lines on
the palm of the hand are not discern
ible. Each stick when burning must
be placed in a perpendicular position.
1t is also necessary that it should be
placed in a room free from currents
of air.-Youth's Companion.
