BETTING FAVORABLE
TO MICHIGAN TEAM
Size of the Score Furnishes
Basis for Wagers.
SCARLET HACKERS SUITED,

indianapolis, Oct. 17.-Practically all
of the betting on the Wabash-Michi-
gan game, which takes place at Wash
ington Park next Saturday, will be on
the size of the score. Odds already
have been posted in downtown pool
rooms, the prevailing figure being even
money that Michigan does not beat
Wabash by more than eighteen points
There is about an equal division Of
opinion on the question of whether
Wabash will score. In most places 10
to s is being offered that the scarlet
will not score, the bets being off IN
case neither team scores. There
seems to be plenty of Wabash money
and lot of these bets are being cover
ed. Most of the layers have been wait
ing for more Information about the
teams before quoting prices.
Backers Of the scarlet are satisfied
with the even money proposition that
Michigan will not win by more than
three touchdowns, but the bets that
Wabash will not score are liked better
It'll likely that the betting on this
proposition will go to even money ev-
erywhere before the game starts and
possibly the followers of the scarlet
will have to give odds.

FURTHER DELAY IS
POSSIBLE It SEEMS
Company May Not Deem 1t
Advisable to "Cutover"
Saturday Night.
TESTS NOT SATISFACTORY
1T is FOUND THAT 1T WILL RE-
QUlRE CONSIDERABLE TIME
FOR THE PUBLIC TO GET THE
HANG.

There is a probability that the pres
ent Home Telephone company's ser
vice will not be cut over to the auto
matte service Saturday night. Presi-
dent Lindemuth states that this week
tests with the automatic service had
been made but these tests had proven
most unsatisfactory so that it is prob
able there will be further delay in
placing the automatic service in use
Mr.. Lindemuth stated that the con
struction of the automatic service
was not the cause of the trouble He
said that the inability of the majority
of Home Telephone subscribers to
master the use of the new service
was the cause of all the trouble.
This week two men have been busy
calling up patrons of the company
and asking them to test the new au
tomato phones. The mistakes some
of these patrons have made are laugh
able in the extreme. One man was
asked to send in call for 1884. He
lifted off his receiver then pulled
down 1 once, twice. three times
and 4 four times. 1t took some time
to explain to him that each number
should only be pulled down once. AS
a result of the mistakes made by the
telephone patrons, the men conduct
ing the tests were nearly demoraliz
ed The company now realizes that
to educate the general pubic to the
automatic service time will be re
quired and that this new service can
not be used until the public gets the
hang" of things.

New Castle, Ind, Oct. lin the
above announcement Judge Barnard
puts himself on record as a candidate
for the seat in congress accredited to
the Sixth district. His ambition is a
iaudable one, embodying as it does
not only a personal desire to repre-
sent this district in congress, but to
serve the nation and state. There is
none other better equipped for that
responsible position Judge Barnard
has the qualifications, possesses a
pleasing personality, a warm hand
clasp and a CHEEKY word for every
one.
Judge Barnard possesses the lOfti-
est regard for truth, inflexib}e homes
ty and unimpeachabie integrity, to
all of which he owes and attributes
his success. He has the uniform re-
gard and esteem OF friends and neigh
bors, the confidence as judge and jur-
list
From 1887 to 1895 he served in the
capacity of prosecuting attorney and
at the expiration of his term of office
he was above reproach. For a time he
was prosecuting attorney for the 18th
judicial circuit composed OF Hancock
and Henry counties and later of the
53rd circuit. composed of Henry coun-
ty alone. This Office merely proved to
be a stepping stone as he was elected
Judge of the Henry circuit court by a
large majority. That he served Hen
~ county well and faithfully is a
matter of history.
Judge Barnard was born near LID
ertv. Union county, Oct 2, 1852. Two
years later the family moved to Dub
lin, Wayne county. In 1856 the family
again moved, this time going to a
farm near Connersville. Fayette coun-
ty. Ten years later Mr.. Barnard, sen
ior. purchased a farm in Liberty
township and moved thereto. Here
it was that Judge Barnard grew to
Young manhood, securing his early
education in the public schools, which
were the best the country afforded al
that time. Later he entered the
Spiceland Academy, from which he
graduated with hOnors, under the
tutelage of the late Clarkson Davis. a
noted educator. Upon his graduation
he began teaching for livelihood
taught in several district schools in
Henry county and later in the New
Castle schools. He was at one time
principal of the Economy schools.
Judge Barnard has already com
menced an active and earnest cam
paign for the congressional nomina
ton. which will be made next spring
He is his own manager. He has visit
ed every county in the district and
has met with no disbursement, on
the other hand finding much in the
situation to encourage him in his am
bition.

CENTRAL LEhGU[RS
NOW IN SESSION
Annual Meeting Being Held at
Toledo.
CHANGES ARE PROBABLE

South Bend, Ind, Oct. 17.-President
F. r. Carson of the Central league left
South Bend for Toledo, O., where today
the magnates of the Central league
meet to award the pennant for 1907
to Springfield O.. talk over trades
and also the makeup of the circuit for
1908.
Tha some change in the arrange
ment of the circuit of the Central IS
on is certain, but just what the nature
of the change will be can not be Off
cially announced until after the own
ers of the various clubs have had a
chance to fully discuss the situation.
The announcement that the baseball
map is to be changed, SO far as Glass
B leagues in this part Of the country is
concerned, is vigorously denied by
President Carson, who processes to
know nothing concerning the dropping
of Wheeling. Dayton, Canton and
Springfield, Ohio, and the taking on
of Rock Island. Peoria and Springfield,
III.
The only magnate who is not expect
ed to attend the Central league meet
ing is Phil Trnold of Grand Rapids.
This team owner has announced that
he is ready to give up his franchise if
he can find the right kind of a purchas-
er and the probability is that Jack
Hendricks of Chicago will reopen the
deal by which he will eventually Sc
cure control of the baseball property
in that city. Another probability
which is receiving the attention of the
fans on the circuit is that of securin g
of Central league protection for Fit.
