four different firms were at the col

will contain four large boilers.
Bunday dormitory and the Carnegie
library now building, are to be COM

facilities for heating other than will

.ONLY A FEW ABLE
To PASS THE TEST
Four Applicants for Service in
Army Out of Thirty--three
Got Through.
COLLEGE MEN ENLIST.
CHOICE is GIVEN BETWEEN
HOME AND FOREIGN SERVICE
THERE ARE 41o VACANCIES AT
THE PRESENT TIME.

OF the thirty-three applications re-
ceived at the local recruiting station
since Sergeant Bard has been in
charge, only four have successfully
the war department. 1t is a most sin
gular fact that majority of the men
refused were not accepted on ac-
count of afflicted eyes. The recruit
ing officers always have to deal with
a large number of men who are af-
flicted with eye troubles, but the per
cent. of applicants refused here on
account of such, is exceptionally large.
None but the very best men physical
ly and mentally are accepted for the
service.
During the past year 693 college
graduates have been enlisted in the
army which shows that Uncle Sam is
making a strong bid for the very
cream of America, to take places in
his guards. The old theory that ev-
cry yDouy anu any DOuy CdH eHtel the
service has long been exploded. The
Goth infantry to which all the Rich
mond boys have been assigned to
service, along with the 21st and 22nd
infantry and 4th cavalry, has been as
signed to foreign service. All the To-
cal recruits will go to Honolulu
where they will be stationed until fur
ther orders from the War department.
Have Choice of Service.
Men enlisting in the service at the
present time have their choice of
either foreign or home service, the
order having just been issued.
Capt Carroll Power, in charge of
the Indiana recruiting district, was
in the city Monday making an inspec-
ton.
An order has also been issued by
the war department granting all ac
cepted applicants the privilege of i'm
mediately entering one of the army
schools for a six months term, or en-
tering the ranks and taking the school
work at a later period. School work
however is not compulsory.
Sergeant Bard has been notified
that there are vacancies for % signal
electricians at salary of s75 per
month each; five vacancies for engi-
neers in the artillery corps and four
sergeant majors, Junior grade, in the
artillery corps. All told there are 40
vacancies in the line of the army.

dation of the library building. After
the cornerstone laying the building
will be hurried to completion BY the
opening of the fall term both the Ii
brary and the Bundy dormitory
should be fully built. The dormitory
is rapidly assuming form. The brick
layers are now working on the third
story. The college authorities are
particularly pleased with this struc-
ture The walls, which are of com
mon brick, are almost as perfect as
if constructed of pressed brick.
Building to be Model.
The library building is to be a
model of its kind, two stories in
heighth and a deep basement. 1t will
accommodate $4,000 volumes. The
cost of the building will be S4O,00O.
In addition to the space allotted to the
library proper there will be lecture
room with stereopticon, five study
rooms for research work and room
for an art collection This is an un-
usual feature for Friends institution
as the Quakers have never given
much attention to art in the past.
That Earlham is to have new library
is largely due to Prof. Harlow Lind
lev. the librarian who had charge OF
soliciting the funds for the endoW-
ment Prof Lindley who has heen
appointed to revise and collect histor-
ical data on Indiana for the state IL

of 1,747 feet, or about one-third of
mile Each of the twin palaces is
built in such a manner as to inclose
great quadrangular court, walled
with Indiana limestone. This court
will be 800 feet square, and from it
access will be had to tunnel leading
to the capitol Both of the great fiat
houses, it is understood, are to be con-
nected with the basement of the capi-
tol by subterranean passageways,
lined with vitrified brick and brilliant
ly lighted by electricity, 50 that rep
resentatives and senators can pass
to and fro without going out into the
open air.
There will be in each building four
features specially elaborated in an
architectural sense-namely, the ro-
tunda, the main staircase, a great
room for caucus meetings, and the
dining-room. The rotunda will extend
from the ground floor through the en-
tire height of the structure (four
stories) terminating with a dome un-
der the roof It will be rs feet in
diameter. On the second floor will
be the caucus room aforesaid-a SUI
perb apartment Sc feet long and 81
feet wide. It is designed to be used
for public hearings before committees
of the house whenever such hearings
are largely attended. Private en-
frances communicate with private
stairs and elevators, as we'll as with
cloak rooms and smoking rooms all
of these arrangements being in dupli-
cate so that members of the majority
and the minority may utilize them
comfortably without interfering with
each other.
On the first floor of each building
will be large and full-equipped post
office, as well as accommodations for
telegraph and telephone service. Be-
meath will be the barber shop. On the
second floor will be the dining-room,
65 feet long and 80 feet wide and two
stories in height, with an ellipticai
ceiling. It is the intention to finish
this room in ornamental plaster, paint,
ed Adjoining the dining-room will be
a lunch room for the accommodation
of the employees of the building. In
all there will be eight staircases and
12 elevators in each fiat house.
Architecturally considered, the two
new buildings are properly to be re-
garded as additions to the capitol-a
structure which, beautiful as it is, has
been from the beginning patchwork.
The wings, the terrace on the west,
and even the dome are comparatively
new; and the final touch of perfection
will be added when the necessary ST.
100000 is appropriated (as is conf
IDENTIFY expected) by the next congress
for an extension of the east front in

HE SIMPLY HAD TO LIVE.
Old Mans Demise Would Have Left
Great Question Unsettled.

When the doctor came to see him
and felt of his pulse and looked at his
tongue and learned that he was over
go years old, he shook his head and
said there was no hope.
"But I can't die for several years
to come" protested the old man.
"You must die, but you can tell me
your trouble" said the doctor.
well, then, As years ago attended
circus and menagerie. I took an
aversion to the elephant at once, and
determined to make it hot for him. I
scooped out an apple, filled the hol-
low with red pepper and gave it to
him"
"Well, they say that an elephant
remembers such things for SO years" :"
Eyes I have heard So"
"And the so years won't be up for
five years more, and during that time
old Behemoth is sure to come around.
I want to be there. l want to see If
he remembers me. want to settle
this question of an elephants memory
for good and ALL"
''Then that's different" answered
the doctor, and he took off his coat
and pulled the old man back from
the grave.
