AXLE
Broke And Beer" Wagon
Had A Close Call

A number of expectant persons were
greatly worried on Saturday evening
because of the delay which they ex-
perienced in getting their whisky and
beer. The GAS train unloaded an un-
usually large cargo Of booze on this
occasion and the express wagons were
loaded almost beyond their capacity.
Nothing unusual would have been the
result had the wagons been strong
enough to carry their load. Just as
one of these heavily loaded wagons
was leaving the depot, the axle on the
rear end snapped in two and the wag-
on was allowed to drop to the ground
By mere chance not bottle was brok-

INJURED
We're Several People At
DanviIle Monday
When A Baseball Grand
Stand Collapsed

Danville, o., May 3t.-The baseball
game between the Danville and Gam
bier teams here was suddenly stop
ped on Monday afternoon when the
grand stand crashed to the ground
taking with it about one hundred and
fifty people who had taken position
on the seats to watch the game. When
the stand was erected, the braces were
not made very strong as it was seldom
filled and the extra precaution was not
thought to be necessary. When the
stand began to give away, the people
who were seated on 1t made haste to
get down to the ground but the greater
portion of them fell with it. Fortu-
nately, the braces were strong enough
to cause it to fall slowly at first and
as result, the shock when 1t struck
the ground was not so great as it
would otherwise have been. AS 1t was,
several persons were injured although
none were serious. Those injured
were: Mrs. Hendershot with badly
bruised hips, Harold Kunkle with in
iured leg below the knee, and Miss
Marjorie Lower badly sprained and
twisted back. A number of other per
sons were slightly injured.

The last chapel program of the year
was given last Wednesday morning
under the direction of Miss Williams.
The first number of the program con-
sisted of take-off of a German
school including speeches by all the
members of the class and ended up
with the famous old German school
song "Schnitzelbank" The manner
of putting on the school and in fact,
the whole school itself, was fixed up
by those participating and was much
enjoyed by all. rhe following were
the characters composing it:
Teacher-Logan Wills.
Herr Dinkelspieler-Car Conard.
Pupils-Carl Masteller. Dean Nc
Kee, John Gotshall, Donald Harper,
Kenneth Snow, John Ewing, Leon
Zeisloft.

Story-Logan Wills.

This was succeeded by the follow
ing:
! Quartette-Misses Irene Cochran
Ethel Vincent, Ruby Huntsberger and
Corita Cochran.
Piano solo-Miss Helen McNabb.
Address-Mr. Winans.
1t was announced in chapel last
Wednesday morning by Mr.. Winans
that the two music classes of the high
school would be abandoned for the
rest of the school year.
Three stateus representing Mer
curry, Horace Mann and Goliath were
placed in the high school building last
Monday morning. They were pur
chased with the money derived from
the senior class play last June. Aft
er chapel on Wednesday morning, il
was discovered that somebody hao
been at work ON Mercury and had
gorgeously decorated him up with a
red mustache and side whiskers. This
was, of course, washed off and Mer
curry was put back in his position
again. However, Mercury was miss
ing from the pedestal on Friday morn
ing and it was discovered that some
body had entered the building on the
preceding evening and had made
away with the feet-footed god. i
was presumably somebody in the higl
school that committed the act, the cul
prits not yet having been fereted out
Whoever it was, 1t was certainly tn,
lowest type of vandalism that prompt
ed the doer to commit the act and i
the guilty one or ones are found out
they should be dealt with according
ly. 1t is certainty not smart tricl
to actually steal away from the higl
school statue that had been place
there as memorial by graduating
class.

The four days of next week and
three days in the week following it
will close up the school year 19O9-1910.
The graduating class this year Is very
small in number only about thirty
graduating The rule that has former
ly applied as to examinations for SEN
iors that no grade received during the
year should be less than seventy-tive,
has ben altered so as to make 1t an
average of seyenty-tive for the years
work must be obtained in order to be
exempt from taking examinations.
This was very pleasing to a number
whose grades were above with the ex-
ception of one month and who thought
that because of this, they would be
compelled to take the examinations.
Next year the rule will be again
changed and an average of ninety
must De attained Pursuant of the
policy of former years, however, those
in charge decided that this should
not affect the members of this years
senior class.

entered Hahnemann college, in Phil
1891. Since then Doctor LANCE has
practised medicine and has interested
himself in several industrial enter
prises.
In his statement, which he calls
'The true story of Dr. F. w. Lange's
sensational discovery he discusses in
very general terms his reported dis
covery of at least piece of the phi
losopher's stone and says:
What l have been evolving may be
an apparent confirmation of the the
DRY of alchemy, in which, however, I
have no interest, as the things that
interest me are only such things as
can be done scientifically"
At the same time he asks in large
capitals; us my new metal silver?
Does its manufacture mean that
have transmitted metals?" The doc
tor answers his own question by say
ing he thinks it is.
IAN investigation of the chemicals
involved in the preparation of a new
smOkeless powder" Doctor LANCE
says, led him into investigation along
the lines of nitrates and chlorides
and the carbonates" incidentally"
he says, Il met party who threw out
a statement that led me to investigate
the combination of certain matrices by
the use of which synthetically larger
quantities of the elementary matter
could be developed
This then is Doctor Lange'S specific
claim that he is able to combine sill
yer with fiuxes and obtain greatly
increased amount of silver. The old
alchemists believed that silver would
breed silver and gold.
AS to how far in his opinion the
growing of silver can be carried, Doc
tor Lange says that the report that he
can make a ton of silver from an orig
inal small quantity is quite ridiculous
and that he has succeeded Gin null
tiplying molecules in that proportion"
Reviewing his discovery Doctor
LANCE says that while his discovery
may be an apparent confirmation of
the theory of alchemy" that doesn't
interest him, and that he does not
care "to waste time about the phi
Iosopher's stone"
