The fight is bitter one, and it is
evident that neither side will surren-
der until a more desperate point is
indignant over the vandal's work, and
efforts were even made to get blood
hounds to track him. 1t is probable
that an arrest will be made within the
next twenty-four hours. The piano

Hillsboro. Ind, May 3.-While John |
Cory, a highly respected farmer Of |
Mil Creek township, living two miles
east of Yeddo, was at the home of his |
neighbor, Albert Philpotts, at an en-
tertainment, some one entered his
home, about II O'Clock at night, and
rolled a new piano out of doors. The
piano was covered with hay, which
was obtained at the barn, set afire
and burned to ashes. Cory returned
about 114O and found the ashes,
which were within eight feet of his
new house.
War Over Instrumental Music.
He Immediately called his neighbors
by telephone, and the account spread
over the country. The community
around what is called the Bowers
church is at war over putting piano
in the edifice in place of the organ
Last Sunday this instrument was in
the church for trial and vote was
taken on the matter. 1t stood a tie,

They Made Mean Remarks"
The faction that was adverse to buy
ing the piano became very indignant
and ordered the instrument removed
before some one should set fire to It.
Others are said TO have made very
''mean" remarks about it. Consequent.
ly, the piano agent moved the instru-
ment to Cory's, who lives about q mile
and a half from the church. 1t was to
remain there until next Sunday, when
| it would be returned to the church to
be used at township Sunday school
convention, to be held there next Sum
day.

One of the most difficult of the prob
lens which confront modern engineers
are the menacing oceans of sand
which in different parts Of the world
are converting fields into deserts. What
terrific ravages can be caused by a
vast sea Of sand Is perhaps best seen
in Africa, but in England TO a small
extent and in the United States to a
serious degree, there may be found
demonstrations of the sand plague
which are, to say the least, disquieting.
A grain of sand, torn away from the
granite rocks countless years ago by
tie great glacial drift, seems such an
innnitesimal object that proverbially
1t is the least visible thing in the
world, yet when 1t Is united with in
Vulnerable other grains, and the whole
propelled by the winds, 1t becomes al
most impossible to stop the progress of
the shifting mass. 1t pours down over
a country, slowly, relentlessly, laying
waste everything. Buildings are under
mined, roads are obliterated and it's
gruesome work once begun never
ceases.
Egypt Not Always Waste.

But this is a matter Of commerce
With the overwhelming of the espla-
made, or seawalk, at the same place,
which has been accomplished by the
sand and wind in a very thorough
manner, an equally serious problem is
encountered. This cannot be gotten rid
of by such simple means as dredging
a channel. The sand must be removed
and very pretty problem it presents.
In some places the magnificent rallied
esplanade lies under five or six feet of
sand. Not only has the hayward sand
covered the walk, but has accumulated
in dunes between the esplanade and
the sea- effectively shutting out the
view.

Like Lavater's great circle OF fire

convincing, but that it is more than a
remarkable coincidence remains to be
established.
Desert Lands of the West.
The Colorado Desert, at the base of
the Sierra Nevada, like the Sahara,
bears signs of being the bottom of an
ancient sea or lake. These arid lands
of the United States are found nUtah,
Oregon. California. Nevada and Ari-
iona. The Coast Mountains effectual-
ly shut out from them the moisture
which otherwise might be precipitated
over these wastes. The highest annu-
al rainfall in the United States Is to be
found in this region, particularly In
Southern Arizona.
While these desert lands are not so
great in area as the Sahara, they are
of sufficient size and Importance to
make their reclamation desirable. With
this end in view, the Federal Govern

The st. Paul auditorium, which has
Just been opened, is an elastic sort of
affair According to the Bellman, the
local architects have invented mechanical
appliances by means of which a row of
boxes and balcony will swing toward
the center and walls will drop from out
the ceiling, cutting off about half of the
area of the building and making n good
sized, well proportioned, fan shaped
room suitable for concert room.
The balcony and boxes are swung
back and the partition walls climb to the
ceiling again when any big event, such
as q hippodrome or convention or
grand opera, calls for the full size of the
