this, and that is to adjust oneself
tn the realities of life at the start,
and understand the vital principle
embodied in them. This does not
mean that a young man should
plunge into public affairs and
strike out for prominence, but to
take up with some of the produc-
tive and useful forces of life and
adorn them with virtuous, cour-
ageous, temperate, industrious
habits, and thereby exalt the com
munity in which he lives.
We would like for some of thes e
commencement day orators to
point out the snares, the pitfalls
and allurements against which the
graduate should guard himself.
He knows the doctrine. He knows
the right way we'll enough. He
wants to know the dangers he is
sure to meet, and which he is
meeting now, every day, and it
takes a steady head to get past
them without harm. For that,
most of all, he should be prepared,
and should take his stand where
high ideals move the heart.

In Memoriam.

Oliver Sliverthorn Oaks was
born on his fathers farm in Perry

1907, aged rs years, 8 months and
% days, after q serious illness
lasting over three months. Near
~ four years ago while visiting
relatives in the west he suffered a
stroke of paralysis and since then
has had many serious heart at
tacks which caused a gradual fail
ure of health. He was united in

HOW THUNDER STORMS OCCUR,

HOW THUNDER STORMS OCCUR,
The thunderbolt is not baby
to be proud of although the
Romans charge it's paternity to
Jupiter, the ruler of the gods.
Science now furnishes fairly
satisfactory, if not absolutely ac-
curate, story of the mechanism
of it's production.
The thunderstorm usually be-
gins to form early in hot day.
The moist air near the earth,
heated by the SUMS rays, expands
and rises to the cooler dry currents
which condense the moisture into
clouds, which form "Thunder-
heads" The PARTICLES of moist
ure, from friction, gather charges
of electricity on their surfaces
and these charges are massed in
the cloud.
The "thunder, ,squal" which
precedes the rain ls an outwar d
rushing of the wind in recoil from
previous upward pressure. Per
haps this is increased by the cool
ing of the atmosphere by the
shadow of the thundercloud and
by the downward brushing OF
rain drops, The particles ol
moisNre finally having grouped
themselves in drops too heavy for
the air to sustain fall as rain.

REAL ESTATE
DEALS.
Harry 0lmsted Gets Good
Price for His Home.

BY deal which was closed Sat
urday afternoon, the beautiful and
complete residence property OF
Harry Olmsted, 14I5 East Broad
street, passed into the hands of II
G. Goldman, the sale price being
$4,000, the largest individual
sale price for any residence in the
history of Columbus real estate.
In the same deal the residence and
property of S. Casparis, in Airing
ton, passed into the hands of Mr..
Olmeted, the consideration being
$87,O
The consummation of this huge
real estate deal occupied just
three days. Both of the resi-
dences are verltable palaces and
are located upon tracts admirably
laid out With beautiful lawns and
pretty landscape effects. Tire
real estate firm of Zinn d. Robbins
negotiated and completed the
sales
The Olmsted residence at Broad
street and Latta avenue is one of
the finest in Columbus. 1t was
erected by L. j. Bergin and pur-
chased by Mr.. Olmsted in 1897.
Since that time Mr.. Olmsted has
from time to time spent large sums
of money in improving and en-
larging the property so that it was
absolutely without fault at the
time the sale was made. Every
thing is in perfect condition, even
to the large stable in the rear, and
everything was arranged with an
eye to the artistic effect. The in
terror was arranged and finished
to the highest degree Of excel
lence.
The Casparis mansion was erect
ed by S, Casparis, of the Casparis
Stone company, 1t is twenty
room stone dwelling. The stone
was taken direct from MIR. Cas-
paris's own quarries. The inter
ior was finished in the finest of
wood imported from various states
and even from Europe. Four acres
of ground are included in the
property, which is heated in the
finest section of Airing ton. Every
thing is artistic about the Casparis
mansion, even down to the lodge
quarters for the servants.
Mr.. Goldman has disposed of his
other property on East Broad
street and will take possession of
the Olmsted home as soon as pos
slble. Mr.. Olmsted will also move
into his new home as soon as pos
sible.

After School What?
Cohio state Journal

COho State 1ournalD
There have never been such
crowded commencements, such
long and eloquent baecalaureate
sermons, so much sound advice
appeal as have been given to grad
uates of college and high school
this year. 1t is enough, if taken
and utilized, to make a new era
of the next generation. 1t has all
been in one strain-an appeal for
sturdy, strong hearted, clear head
ed men of conviction, who will
stand for the right at all hazard
The intellectual attainment, the
knowledge, the culture-all these,
though important, have been made
secondary. The first thing is
manhood, courage, doing some
thing useful and honorable, and
casting ASIDE the ldea mat educa-
tion is itself an end. There is
great need of this kind of appeal.
1t is not getting in it's work yet as
it tould. Young men come out
of college too often to dilly daily
with opportunity and keep their
education bottled up like a nos
trum.
This is why there is so much
appeal from the commencement
rostrums. Novel-reading, smoke
enjoying, card-playing, social
escapading of all sorts, so easily
succeed to the sacrifice of college
walls, that they give bent to
ones life, and one soon loses the
seriousness of his education and
thinks, after all, it is only for the
grace of appearing well on the
surface of things.

Narrow Escape From
Death.
From
Lancaster Gazette }


Samuel Jones, engineer on the
through II, d o. c.. coal train due
in Lancaster at :35, was thrown
from his engine between here and
Logan Sunday afternoon, was seri-
ously bruised about the body and
narrowly escaped from being
ground to pieces. His absence
was not noted for nearly seven
miles, when the conductor signal
led for brakes and failed to get
them.
An investigation was made and
the train, which had been running
along at merry clip with no one
at the throttle, was hacked up to
find the engineer lying along the
tracks bruised and bleeding. He
was taken aboard the train and
his injuries dressed, Mr.. Jones
had climed hack over the tender
while a few miles out of Logan to
see how much water he had in the
tank. His feet slipped ON a piece
of coal throwing him to the ground
1t will be several days before he il
able TO return to his duties.

Of the charges they hold, These
flashes Usually are several miles
long while flashes to earth are one
to three miles. SO, the positive

for getting even with it's heavenly

Possibly the idea that clouds char.

Few thunder storms travel as far

THE VALUE OF A FLASH.
The cash value for power of an
average lighting bolt has been
figured by German. A Russian
has produced a motor which is
operated by electricity from cap
tive balloons. These gentlemen,
it seems, agree with Emerson
that:
The lighting has run masterless too long;
H must to school and learn his verb
and noun,
And teach his nimbleness to earn his
wage.
The energy in a cloud a mile
square would fire bullet weighing
a ton 13, $50 miles.
The electricity discharges dur
ing a thunder storm combine
oxygen of the atmosphere and
nitrogen forming nitrate which en-
riches the ground and ozone which
is stimulant to animal and
vegetable life, although it some
times gives a sulphurous smell
and often sours the milk. And,
too, the down pour of rain washes
the air carrying down the millions
of floating germs.
The thunder results from the
violent vibrations of the air caused
by the lighting flash which in
breaking down the resistance of
The air creates vacuum of an eX-
cent depending upon the intensity
of the flash.

A FALLACY.

In addressing the fire preven
tion congress in London four years
ago Alfred Hands, said, in effect
that thunderbolts don't come
down but are the result of a frac
ture in the air due to strain be
tween the positive electricity oil
the cloud and the negative cleo
tricity of the earth. His state
ment has no support from author
tiles nor from experience. The
European scientists have OBJ
served that there are about one
hundred cloud to earth bolts tt
one from earth to cloud, the salts
factory observations being made
on the rod of the Eifel Tower
which stands 1000 feet in the sky
The branches of the fash have
the same general direction as the
the flash itself. One often fancie:
he can see the movement of the
bolt from the fash which is caused
by it's heating the air hot but the
average flash spends but one sixty
thousandth of second in travel
ing a mile and that is too fast for
the eye to follow. The centra
part of the eye is more sensitive
than the rest so the impression OF
the end of the fash which j:
directly in the line of sight reach
es the brain first.

TIGERS FAR
FROM TOP
NOTCH FORM
Slump in Princeton Camp
After Stevens Game..M Meet
Wesleyan Tomorrow.

PRINCETON, Oct. s.-The proverbiai
calm has come after the storm in Prince
ton. Saturdays game with Stevens seemed
to mnerve the Tigers, judging from the
way they played yesterday afternoon, and
the coaches handled them with care, al
though the squad looked healthy enough.
One thing is very evident here. That Is
that the men are far from being in top
notch condition. A team like Stevens has
no license to damage Princeton in a one
sided contest, especially when the Orange
and Black used two full elevens during
the contest.
To sum up yesterdays practise, IL was
loose. There was a noticeable lack OF
unity in the varsity play, n the men
were slow in travelling. The coaches sent
the first string through the longest signal
drill of the season, attempting to correct
the glaring faults of formation which
cropped out in Saturdays game. Above
all, sharp interference on end runs was
pumped into the backs, and when the
work was over Mccormick, Harlan and
Reid ran much better than before.
Forward passing came in for its share OF
polishing. too, but the results did not cause
the coaches to chuckle with glee. The
regular varsity scrimmaged for only 1--WE
minutes yesterday. When the subs went
in there came a big change. and the second
string ripped up practically anything their
opponents could offer.
During the earlier part Wister tailed on
an on-side kick, and Harlan kicked a field
goal from the 35-yard line. This last was
a pretty piece Of booting. Mccormick
plnted yesterday.
Today offers the last opportunity for
preparation for Wesleyan on Wednesday.
The Methodists went down before Yale.
and Princetonians are looking forward to

make. OF course. score comparisons are
often fallacious, but it is interesting to
try to figure things out. Much stress is
being put on gathering in the bali when
it Is loose. In the Stevens game there was
a lot of unnecessary scrambling, which Is
dangerous. Coach Roper is giving much
attention to this department at present.

Eyes Of Sporting World Fo-
cussed on Struggle Between
Pennant Winners Today.

CHICAGO, Oct. a.-Basebali fever ran
higher here last night than at any time
this season, with the Cubs and Tigers
ready ana on the eve of battle for the
worlds championship baseball honors in
the series that begins today.
In all the big cafes and sporting sa-
looms betting was heavy. Chicago is full
of Detroit fans and r%ooters, and thou.
sands of dollars were put up last night on
the result of the series. For the most
part the Cubs are favorites at odds of 10
to Q and 5 to 4.
The Detroit contingent has been eating
up the Chicago money at these quotations,
and If the Tigers win the championship
their friends will take a big fortune out
of Chicago.
Nowhere in the city is anything hut the
series discussed. The hotels are crowded
with visitors, and the Hobbies buzz with
baseball talk. Enthusiasts have come from
all over the country, but the greater part
of the visiting fans belong to the Michigan
city, whose team will oppose the Cubs to-
day.
The Cubs are going into the battle seri-
ously handicapped, while the Tigers, in
almost every way, are in prime shape for
a terrific struggle. -Four star players Of
the National League champions are in
more or less poor physical condition for the
battle that is before them. They are Nor
decai Brown, star pitcher, whose arm is
uncertain; Manager Chance, who has a
bad foot that has been keeping him out of
the game; Artie Hoffman, star utility man,
whose twisted knee probably will keep him
out Of the opening game. if not the entire
series; Frank Schultz, star outfielder aud
batsman, who has been laid up a good deal

still unfit for the fierce games.
Msnager Chance said last night:
1.-THE Cubs are going into this series to
win. The National League champions have
the strength to beat the Tigers, for 1 can't
figure where they have anything on this
club, with the exception of two outfleld.
ers, and the Cub machine can beat any
two-man team in the country. 1 believe.
Jennings has instilled a lot of pepper and
life into his men. We are not going to
permit the Tigers to outginger us. Wheu
these two clubs get together there viii
be some pretty warm contests"
HHghey Jennings, manager Of Detroit
said:
I'VE hope to win. I believe the Tigers
are the best ball team the world has evei
seen. I give my men ginger fizz' and thai
is what makes them play ball.
I'VE lay never been beaten by any
minor league team. We have won th'
pennant in the American League strictly
through bulldog tenacity. We went int
the camp of the Athletics and beat then
on their own grounds, the last game being
the most sensational ever seen.
8"Our pitchers are all good. Every mar
or the team is fit. Cobb and Crawford
are batting at their best. L realize that
in the Cubs we are meeting a great ball
team, but If you will look back at the
hitting column of the Tigers you will see
that they nave met the best pitchers in
the American League and hit them all
alike. We expect to do the same with
those we meet in the worlds series"

HARVARD TENNIS CHAMPION
Takes Doubles from Princeton in Three
Straight Sets.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. S.--By defeating
Princeton in the doubles Harvard players
carried all before them IN the intercollegiate
lawn t,nnls championships, which have
been in progress at Haverford during the
past week Yesterday N. w. Niles and
A. Dabney, Harvard. defeated S. Gordon
and A. Gerlach, Princeton, by three sets
to love In the doubles. The Princeton
pair did not show anything like cham
pionship form during the first two games
of the first set and did not win a single
point After this they warmed TO their
work and gave the Harvard representa-
tives a much better game.
The inner were undoubtedly much the
stronger team, and once more did Niles's
twist service prove a stumbling block to
his opponents. Niles was also very strong
on overhead shots, and, although he re-
cefved good support from Dabney, he was
the better man all round. Gordon played
a good game for Princeton, but did not
receive very good support from his part
ner at critical stages Of the game.
Today the semi-flnals and finals in the
singles will be played. All four OF the
contestants are Harvard men, and they
have been drawn as follows: Niles VS..
Pell, Dabney VS.. Gardner. The hnal will
probably rest between Miles and Pell.
