FREsHIEs HOLD THE FORT.

Greencastle. Oct. 5.-The annual
fl neutrality-suspicious. class scrap was
held as a curtain raiser before the
game. A flag bearing the numerals of
the freshmen class, 1911. was nailed
to a post some six feet high on the
center Of the field and was surrounded
by some two hundred and fifty fresh
men. Something like two hundred
sophfnores charged the flag and for
twenty minutes a fierce battle ragged.
But the sophmores were unable TO dis
lodge 1t and at the end of the pre-
scribed twenty minutes the freshmen
were yet in possession.
This scrap was of great interest to
the De Pauw visitors who are allowed
10 class scraps OF any kind.

Wednesday and Thursday OF last
week at Lafayette, La, one of the
most progressive, growing and

people are to a man captains of in

heart, carrying with them sweet MEM
cries of the happy occasion.
The people of Louisiana are noted
for their ''savoir vivre'' and innate
hospitality, but these splendid quail
ties are especially noticeable in the
citizens of the town and parish of
Lafayette. They are modest, unas-
Stunning but great and noble, and it is
people Of their stamp who make a
country great and invincible. The
evidences of their worth are not want
ing. They can be e in the agricul-
tural, industrial and educational ex.
pansion of Lafayette in fact, it is re-
fiected in the general development,
which Is marvellous and acccntuates
the Importance and extensiveness Of
its unsurpassed resources. Fertility
of soil and energetic, thrifty and
trained people to work it constitute a
combination that guarantee substan-
tial and permanent and advancement
in every direction, and necessarily
e%ventuates in the accumulation of
personal and general wealth. The adj
vantages in Lafayette for the a who
is determined to push forward and to
achieve success in some of the princi-
pal occupations of this life r prob
ably unequalled, for W. reasons, viz:
the generous treatment accorded to
Lafayette by nature and the great ia
cilities it possesses to provide an in
dustrial education, which is SO needful
in this age of progress and keen COM
petition. Success in any walk of life
to-day depends upon careful and
thorough training, which makes the
battle of life easier and more success
full. In the town of Lafayette there
stands q monument to the high in
telligence, enterprise and public
s~piritedness OF the people OF that
section-one that typifes in an emf
nent degree the sturdy manhood and
deep-seated determination to raise
everything to q higher level, to lead
and not to follow. Reference is made
here to the Southwestern Louisiana
Industrial Institute, of which that
s6able gentleman and distinguished
educator, DR.. E. L. Stephens, is the
head. This institution is easily one
Of the greatest and most important in
the State.

COUNTRY ARE MATCHING
THE OUTCOME

Associated Press to Bismarck Tribune
Boise, Idaho, May illiam D.
Haywood, secretary and treasurer
of the Western Federation of Miners,
will on Thursday next be placed on
trial charged with the murder of
Ex-Governor Frank Steunenberg of
this state.
In all four; men are in custody
charged with the same offense. They
are William d. Haywood, Charles H.
Meyer, president of the Western
Federation of Miners; George A.
Pettibone, former member of the
executive board of the same organi-
cation, and Harry Orchard, member
of the Miners Federation.
Of these men, Orchard, it is al
legged, has made confession in
which he admits that he killed the
former governor, and in the same
confession, it is alleged, duplicates
the other men under arrest, together
Win others belng accessories be
fore the fact under the law Of the
state of Idaho.
While it is admitted that Hay
wood, Meyer and Pettibone were not
in the state Of Idaho at the time of
the murder, they are charged with
actual murder, the contention under
the statute being that they were on
the spot in spiri, and that they
planned and therefore comprised the
death Of Governor Steunenberg.
In its main and lateral branches,
the complete history Of the case ex-
tends back to the early period OF
conflict between union and non
union miners in the Occur d'Alene
district.
