Delegates from Over the State
Elect Officers to Serve
During Coming Year.
CLOSE WITH A BANQUET
NAME OF THE ORDER CHANGED
FROM AMERICAN TO ANCIENT
ORDER OF oWLS-MEETS NEXT
YEAR AT ANDERSON.

The state convention of the Ameri-
can Order of Owls closed last even
ing with banquet given in the lodge
rooms. Luken's hall. by the local Nest
in honor of the visiting delegations.
Other business included the selection
of Anderson as the meeting place for
1911, the election and installation of
officers and the change in the bylaws
by which the order will be known
hereafter as the Ancient Order of
Owls.
The reason for the order changing
the name was that an injunction was
secured in Illinois, where the order
was organized, prohibiting the name
of American being used in connection
with the order, because it conflicted
with another division of the same
name. Although the Indiana delega,
tons were unanimous for the change
as indicated by the vote, yet the mat
ter will not be positively settled until
the national convention considers it at
its meeting in Rochester. N. Y. in
August.
Anderson was voted as the next
meeting place on the first ballot. Al.

RY w, w. NAUGHTON.

San Francisco, May 27.-The sports
Of the city are all agog now over the
coming to town of Jeffries. Jeff is to
appear in sparring bouts with Joe
Choynski and Bob Armstrong at
Dreamland tonight, and apart from
what Jeffries may show in the way
OF ring activity, the desire to see how
the big fellow looks after his long
siege of training is general.
Jeffries's appearance will speak for
itself. The spectators will look upon
a man who has stuck resolutely to the
longest grind in training in the Ills
tory of fisticuffs. There will be no
two opinions in regard to the results
achieved by the big fellow in the mat
ter Of weight reduction at least.
II is reasonable to suppose that JEFF
fries will infuse considerable ginger
into his glove play so as to extract
favorable comment from the thous-
ands who have always upheld him
as the greatest fighter of modern
times. There is suspicion that the
hard and fast work Jeffries has COM
PEELED his sparring partners to go
through within the past week. is a
sample of what may be expected to-
morrow night.
There is report that Jack Johnson
intends taking in the show. Johnson
10 noncommittal on the subject. He
says he may go and then again he
may not. He argues that as he saw
Jeff fully extended with Gus Rubin
and Tom Sharkey, he does not have to
post himself as to Jeffries ring meth.
DDS.
."If do go. there will be no secret
about It," said Johnson. They told
me over In London that Tommy Burns
put on false whiskers and went to
see Gunner Moir box few days be-
fore the Moir- Burns fight; but won't
put on any disguise if 1 go to see
Jeffries."
Johnson's work today consisted Of
q IL mile run on the road, under the
supervision OF Trainer Flanagan.
Local opinion as to the holding OF
prize fights exists in California. ac-
cording to letter from E. F. Mitch
ell, state executive secretary of the
Y. M. c. A. to II. J. Mccoy, general
secretary for San Francisco. Mccoy
has forwarded the letter to District
Attorney Ffckert. With it the local
secretary sent a copy Of resolutions
passed at a joint meeting of the d.
rectors and trustees Of the San Fran
cisco Y. M. C. A. protesting against
prize fighting in this city and particu.
larly against the announced fight be.
tween Jeffries and johnson for the
heavyweight championship.

years.
The banquet was attended by a ma
iority of the local members and by
many of the visitors. However. the
local lodge was disappointed in that
the banquet was not held on Wednes
day evening instead, because many OF
the delegates were compelled to catch
early trains to their homes. The pro
gram included musical numbers and
informal responses to toasts.

Quaker College Nine Will Meet
Wittenberg Tomorrow Aft

HAYS WILL BE IN THE BOX

The Earlham college baseball team
will play the strong Wittenberg aggre-
cation Saturday afternoon on Reid
Field. The Quakers will be in excellent
shape and expect to take another
game from the Ohio lads. Hays, the
crack pitcher, will be in the box for
Earlham and Beard will do the re-
ceiving. Earlham won from Witten-
berg earlier in the season by some fast
playing and strong batting but the Wis
itors have improved also, and it is ex-
pected that this will be an even bet
ter game than the game with Cincin-
natl, which was played last week and
was called on account of darkness at
the end Of the thirteenth inning. Coach
Thistlethwaite sent the team through
a stiff practice last evening.

SAVED BY A
LUCKY CHANGE
Popularity Covers Many States
of the Union.

Because newspapers throughout the
country are publishing scores of testi-
monials from people whom Root Juice
has cured or greatly benefited. there
can be but little doubt regarding the
unusual curative merits of the remedy.
Newspapers all over the country are
publishing news of many of the re-
markable cures the discovery is maxi
Ing and there are but few localities
that have not reported some great
good from the use of Root Juice.
From Bedford down in the southern
part OF Indiana, the proprietor of the
Owl Drug Store wrote the Root Juice
people that Mrs. Sam White, of north
street. said: Il had quit taking med
icine. dismissed my doctor and pre-
pared to die, when l heard OF the
great discovery called Root Juice. I
sent for some Of it, and before | had
finished taking the first bottle. was
able to sit up in bed. The doctor said
had cancer OF the stomach. / don't
know what is was. but Root Juice soon
cured me. and l can't say enough in
favor Of IT.
Frank Brown Of 91o East Fourteenth
street. Bedford. Indina. said: Il had
stomach trouble for years. and tried
many doctors and medicines withou,
much benefit, but after taking Root
Juice 4 short while. was free from
pain and annoyance. and could eat and
sleep. soon became strong and well
and wouldn't take any sum for what
the great medicine did for me-"

haps the best place to set information
