SUFFERS FOR LOOKING
LIKE NAPOLEON

LINZ NAFOLEON
NNew York, Feb. 2o.-Is the
mere fact that a man thinks he
is the reincarnation of Napoleon
a good excuse for declaring him
insane?
Certainly not, say the attor-
neys of John Armstrong Chal-
oner, author of who's looney
now" who had his name chang
ed from Chanfer after his rela-
tives had him sent to- the Bloom
ingdale insane asylum.
Chaloner is suing to get back
the millions he inherited from
his aston ancestors. The millions
at present are in the hands of
Thomas T. Sherman, committee
of Chaloner's person and proper
ty, under the laws of the state of
New York.
Chaloner escaped from Bloom
ingdale in 1902, and went to Vir-
ginia. The Virginia courts de-
clared him sane, but he's still in
sane in New York.
Attorney Ware appeared for
Chaloner before Federal Judge
Holt today.
my client believed he looked
like Napoleon he said. "He was
proud of his likeness, and often
told his friends that he was the
reincarnation of Napoleon, but
that was no reason why he should
have his property taken away
from him and be locked up in an
asylum"

OLD GRADS RALLY
Will Attend Earlham-De.
Paw Football Game.

The De Pauw-Earlham football game
which ends the season for the Quakers
next Saturday is expected to bring one
of the largest crowds of alumni and
old students that have ever attended
an Earlham game. Already seventy
people have written that they expect
to be at the game, and the college is
making arrangements to care for that
many. There is no doubt but that a
much larger number will be in Rich
mond for the day and to see the game.
Miss Conrad, dean of women, made
statement last night that all guests
should make arrangements with men,
bers of the student body if they de-
sired entertainment as the list which
the college can entertain has been eX-
hausted.
The game with De Paw is always
one of the most holly contested of the
season and attracts more attention
than any other on account of the riv-
airy which exists between the col
leges. The De PAW football team, al
though weak early in the season, has
won it's last two games by large
scores over Rose Poly and Miami, and
the fine showing which Earlham made
against Wabash last Saturday makes
a hard game inevitable.

CHILL INTO QUAKERS
Coach Changes Decision of
Playing Scrubs and Will
Send in Varsity.

The Earlham college football team
met Antioch on Reid field today.

own with the visitors.
Antioch has won all it's games this

MARRIAGE BY PROXY.
This Curious Ceremony Is a Purely
Dutch Institution.

fhis CURIOUS ceremony Is purely
Dutch Institution.
Some time ago a Boer in Pretoria
was married to a girl in Amsterdam. in
Holland. the ceremony constituting
what the Dutch call handschoen. or
glove marriage.
In spite of the fact that a distance of
5000 miles lay between the bride in
the Netherlands and the bridegroom
in the Transvaal they were Just as eff
fectuaIly married under the Dutch law
as il both had been present in the
same church.
The bridegroom sent to his friend, or
best man. in Amsterdam q power of
attorney to represent him as his proxy
at the ceremony and at the same time
forwarded his glove. which at the
proper moment when the two were
made one. was held by both the bride
and the proxy.
The wedding was duly registered at
Amsterdam and at Pretoria. where the
bridegroom fled an affidavit with the
landdrost- or magistrate.

No one in Richmond is hanging on
the reports of the Balkan war with
greater interest and watching the re-
turns with such suspense as is Jim
Christ, a naturalized Macedonian. and
leader of the Balkan people in this
section.
Himself a veteran of the Macedo-
nian UPRISING AGAINST the Turk in 1908,
Christ had to flee to America TO es-
cape the wrath of the Turkish govern
ment, which ruthlessly disregardlng
the terms of the treaty, sent its sol
diery into Macedonian villages to muir
der returned soldiers, pillase their
homes. and outrage their dependents.
1t was with a grim feeling of unre-
strained Joy therefore that he grasp
ed the hand of his old general kuzo
D. Maniaski at the Pennsylvania sta
ton last evening. as that patriot was
speeding on his way TO take command
of troops on the front, and besousht
him to inflict dire vengeance on their
hereditary foe.
Gen. Maniaski has a price on his
head When the Macedonian uprising
was over. he returned to his native
village in the mountains. Soon a trus-
ted agent brought word that 1900
Turks were securing the hills TO kill
him and obtain the blood money that
the Turks had offered for him dead or
alive.
Helps General Escape.
Christ helped Maniash make his es
cape to the border. The general made
his way to America. He was working
in Montana, watching the results OF
his sanguinary struggle with increas
ing anxiety. The old martial spirit
still pulsed nightly in his breast.
Late last week he received copy
of the National Herald, published by
the Macedonians of this country. On
the front page was cartoon show
ing a Turk with dripping sword slay
ing women and children. That day
Maniaski left Montana for St. Louis

GERMANS MUSICAL NATION
Their Organizations in Various Localities Have Done
Much to Spread Musical Culture and to

That this city's musical inclinations
are not wholly owing to these latter
influences is, however, shown in the

which is becoming one of the com.
munity's heaviest musical assets and
which is to give It's first public con-

OFFICIALS FAVOR
SOUTHERN ROUTE
Leave Impression that the
Company Will Build this
Extension Soon.

The report of G. K. Jeffries, general
manager of the T. H., l. & E. Traction
company to the city officials concern
ing the proposed extension of the
street car lines of the city north and
south is regarded as very encourag
ing
Jeffries reported to President Ken
nepohl of the board of works that the
proposed route south of the city would
probably be favorably considered by
the traction company, as the need o!
the line is evident to the company and
it also believes that the line will be
profitable.
He said he did not know how SCOT
action would be taken by the company
as it took a great deal of time because
of the necessary expense to the com
pany.
Regarding the northern route, Mr.
Jeffries did not give the officials very
much encouragement though he made
no statements to discourage them.
