The Rev. J. Cook Graham Gre
ated a Sensation When in
Stirring Sermon Defends
Capital Punishment.
HE POINTS TO BIBLE
FOR HIS AUTHORITY
Title to His Sermon Was "Mur-
der, Suicide and Lynching"
Shedding of Human Blood
To Be Avenged.

In stirring address on Murder. SUI
icide and Lynching," the Rev. J. Cook
Graham. pastor of the Fifth Street NJ.
E. church somewhat startled his hear
ers yesterday morning by taking a rad
ical view in favor of capital punish
ment. The chief source of argument
on which the Rev. Graham bases his
view, is the passage from the scrip
lures, which heads: Whose shedeth
mans blood, by man shall his blood be
she'd" According to the speaker, God
recognizes the superior Importance of
the community over the individual.
and when one mans blood is shed b.
another the community shall exercise
the authority by visiting punishment
on the murderer.
He Opposes New View.
There has been a marked tendency
toward the opposite view by leading
thinkers; it being held that capital
of life instead of reducing the amount
of crime. Perhaps the one scriptural
reference which constitutes the basis Of
the contention that capital punishment
is crime, is the commandment, Thou
shalt not kill"
However, it is contended by the Rev.
Mr.. Graham that the edict has been
improperly interpreted and that the
reference concerns the manner of liv-
ing among men, not applying to the
lower order of animals. He declares
that the commandment applys directly
to lynching, murder, or any form Of
killing which is actuated by malice or
fiendish intent He asserts that such
forms of punishment are not retribut-
i've or actuated by an application Of
justice. like capital punishment, but
are the result Of motives prompted by
extreme passion. The speakers re-
marks held the rapt attention of his
hearers and his side Of the argument
was set forth in a very forcible and
logical manner.

IN HARD TRAINING
FOR DEPAUW GAME
Quakers Think They Have an
Opportunity of Winning
The Contest.
franklin SCORE PLEASES
GREENcAsTLE MEN WE'RE ONLY
ABLE TO WIN BY THE SAME
SCORE BY WHICH EARLHAM DE-
FEATED FRANKLIN TEAM.

Foot ball practice will start in earn
est at Earlham College this afternoon
for the game with DePauw. which is tc
be played at Greencastle, next Satur
day. The defeat of Franklin by De
Paw. by the same score, "A to ), as
that of the Earlham- Franklin game
has increased the prospects for Qua
ker victory over the Methodists.
If Earlham should be victorious at
DePauw Saturday, her varsity will
have the secondary championship OF
Indiana, and several Earlham men
will loom up big as all-state foot ball
stars.
Have Secret Practice.
The practice all week at Earlham
will be held behind closed gates. No
one will be admitted to Reid field who
is not member of the foot ball squad
or student at the college. Any
stranger who might appear will be re.
spectfully asked to leave Reid field.
When the Quakers heard that De
Paw had won from Franklin by the
same score that the Earlham aggrega-
ton won. the varsity was greatly en-
couraged. They had expected large
score by DePauw.
The plays and formations which
were used by Earlham against the
squads she has met so far this season.
are known to the DePauw coaches.
This will necessitate new formations
by Earlham and to guard against De
Pauw's knowledge of these plays. no
spectators will be admitted to Reid
field Coach Thistlethwaite will in
struct the squad in new formations all
this week.
Plan Of Campaign.
While at the University of Wiscon-
sin, the past summer. Coach Thistle
thwaite. together with seven other
coaches. planned about 100 formations
and since he has but few of these
this season, the best will be worked
over and played against DePauw. One
member of the Earlham varsity at
least should make the all state foot
ball team this season. This man is
Captain Stanley. Stanley was con-
sidered one of the best centers in the
state last year and his work this year
has been even better. Haworth. at
