Tarrdv Work.

The late planting of flower beds on
the city lawns and at the cemetery
is taking big notch from the season.
Some of the work is still to be done
and several weeks will elapse before
the plants are in good growing cohdi-

Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars for PEN

Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars for Fem
The college treasurer stated at the
session of the board of trustees that
the twelve thousand dollars sustaining
fund had al been raised. This assures
the CHASING of Penn in the "A" grade
of Iowa o'leges.
1t was also reported that ten thous
and dollars has been raised to be ap
piled toward the building OF GIFTS
Dormitory. The board of trustees de
cided to undertake definitely the con-
pletion of thirty-ive. thousand dollars
for the erection of this dormltory
Action in this direction will be com
menced Immediately and it is con
fidently expected that the foundation
will be laid this fall.
Thus this institution founded In
Christian love and based upon the
principles of righteousness, backed by
the energy and enthusiasm of loyal
students, friends and alumni, bids fair
to make rapid strides toward the
goal of high achievement which was
the ideal of those who established her
and of those who have sacrificed fol
her through the years.
The meeting closed with a few ap
propriate remarks and prayer by
President Rosenberger.

After the regular toasts had been

circumstances had been postponed.
Albert F. styles responded with an
address upon the subject "The Invest

be one of the best alumni addresses
ever given at Penn.

RICHMOND, Va, Nov. S-Hudge
Mann. Democratic candidate for gov
eTnor. viii carry the State with his
ticket by majority Of between 25.O00
and 1900
Swanson carried the state by more
than 10000 above this figure. his vote
being sS,74s This falling of in the vote
is due entirely TO lethargy in the party
ranks. more than to any real feeling
Of the minority party. The Republican
party gained but little from the ranks
OF the Democrats.
A peculiar fact is that Judge Mann
got a better vote in the city OF Rich
mond than did Swanson. Considering
the intense interest in Richmond in
fuckers campo ign and the overwhelm-
ing majority. Tucker drew at the pri-
mary in this city. It is taken as an in
dication OF unusual loyalty on the part
of the minority party and fuckers fol-
lowers in Richmond-an indication which
has already taken form in talk OF
Tucker four years hence. when the ma
chine Democracy viii be called on TO re-
member the support OF yesterday.
Despite the fact that five OF the uu-
nieipaI candidates who were on the local
ticket failed TO &c their names on the
ballot. each OF these throughtless office-
seekers were elected BY a safe and
sound majority. Efficient wor kat the
polls saved them defeat
3. Q. James is probably close second
&c Judge Mann on the State ticket.
James name did not appear on the
ticket. he being the candidate selected
by the state Democratic committee to
succeed the late D. @ Eggleston as the
party candidate for secretary OF The
commonwealth
IN spite of all efforts TO announce the
IF farerf eeFrl nd
Of James many voters cast ballots for
the late secretary.
The Republicans regard the election as
distinct gain IN the State. They think
that Virginia VIII yet come over TO the
Republican ranks. and merely take the
present election as an indication Of the
turning.
The fact that so many Democrats did
not vote has encouraged them for
though the Democrats elected candi-
date. the party loyalty, that has been
so long boosted OF is believed to have
fallen on and this is said L ODE the
next step toward bringing these dissat-
fsfied Democrats TO the Republican
ranks On the other hand. Il Is whis-
pered that the machine does not feel
TOO much elated over the lack of inter-
est among the Democrats, and that
there is strong probability of taking ND
minority Democrat in four years IN
fact the Democratic party may take
an entirely new aspect
Carter Glass Is being discussed al
ready.
Glass has been hands or in the
fight both with his paper and his in
duence where the party was concerned
within itself. he has also been loyal
to the party nominee, though believed
10 have preferred Tucker IN the pri-
mary.
The chances OF the IlynehtsIrg man
in the next four years seems unusually
good. The question here Is, Does Glass
want the nomination.

FOR BLIND
YOUTHS FEATURED

A running track upon which blind boys
enjoy running races almost as much as
do their more fortunate brothers is
feature of an English institution.
The runners being blind necessitates
the stretching Of wire cables the full
length of the track On these are rings
large enough to run easily, and to these
rings are attached short chains with
handles. The runers each hold a han
die on a separate cable and are thus
able to keep the exact course. The fin
ishing tape is fringe of cords similar
to those hung above railroad tracks TO
approached, and when the runners strike
these they know the race is finished.
Although blind. the boys know whether
or not they are winning by sounds made
BY their rivals. this adding to the zest
of the spOrt.-Popular Mechanics.

Owing to the increasing interest in
the revival services which began Ia the
Rhode Island Avenue Methodist Episco-
PAL protestant Church last week. 1t is
probable now that the services win be
continued Cor a longer time than the
two weeks originally planned. Under
the leadership of the Rev Thomas Har-

the results OF the religious awakening
of those who have attended have been
most gratifying. A large number OF

PRICED
AMONG ANCIENTS
Pharaohs, Especially, In
dulged in Use of Scented
Water.

Perfumes were highly esteemed
among the ancients.
In the country of the Pharoahs
their, use was carried to excess. The
bodies. clothing, tombs, and houses
were impregnated with perfumes
more or less agreeable. and on feast
days perfumed waters were poured
into the streams.
Did not even the Shunamite plunge
her fingers into the precious myrrh
before running to meet her spouse
The Bible is full of illusions to spik-
enard and myrrh.
The Greeks had a certain perfume
for each part of the body; marjoram
for the hair. apple for the hands wild
thyme for the neck and knees, etc.
They highly esteemed the waters
made of the leaves of vines. Ger
tainly this mixture of odors could
not have been very agreeable.
Leaders or fashion in Athens con-
cetved the idea of freeing doves which
had been bathed in sweet-scented wa
ters over the festal board. that the
guests might be sprinlIldl with per
fumes from their wings
In Rome the slaves filled their
mouths with perfumed waters and blew
them In sprays on the hairs of the mis-
tress In more modern times the per
fume was sprayed through an atomizer
The Romans in particular carried the
custom Of prefuming and living in the
midst of strong odors to a great extent.
Amber and vervain were the favorite
perfumes during the latter part of the
Middle Ages IN the thirteenth century
