What Gold Raaters Can DO.

Gold beaters by hammering can re-
duce gold leaves SO thin that 2S2, 1000
must be laid upon each other to pro-
duce the thickness Of an inch, yet each
leaf is so perfect and free from holes
that one of them laid upon any sur
face, as in gliding, gives the appear
ance of solid gold. They are so thin
that If formed into a book 1900 would
only occupy the space Of single leaf
of common paper, and an octave vol
ume of an inch thick would have as
many pages as the books of a well
stocked library of 1900 volumes with
200 pages in each.

Notes.


The appearance of the Dunbars last
Ievening ELECTED an ovation from the
faudience the larger part of which re-
,membered these entertainers who
Iwere here several years ago with great
ipleasure.
The Dunbars have one of the best
known male quartettes in the coun-
try and are known on the lyceum and
ichautauqua platform from one ocean
ITO another. Their long association
has enabled them to perfect their en-
isemble effects and in "the legit," as
well as in their comedy presentations,
They are much better than good.
! In connection with the appearance
tof John Mitchell on Wednesday even
ing, it might be interesting to state
that, in 1908, an Earlham student,
now resident here, represented that
lcollege in the state oratorical contest
and won second place with his ora
stion on John Mitchell"
The injustice of barring the Earl
ham man from first place was manifest
and admitted since he lost it by just
prejudiced Judge on the examination
of manuscript, the judge who made the
objection being a professor from the
Northwestern University who was OPP
posed to union,l labor and who had stat
ed publicly. a short time previous to
the holding of the contest, that lab
roring man could live on $1.25 day
and save money.
The Earlham man, later, received a
letter of thanks and commentator
from John Mitchell.
That the latter remembered the in
icident for the nine intervening years
was shown when he cached this city
Tor he inquired about the young man
and, finding he was still resident
here, drove down to call on him.
Upon being Intercepted by repre-
sentative of this paper as to whether
he would, in the coming election, sup
port Roosevelt and the Progressives,
as rumoured he will do, Mitchell dip

The reporter.

nhell.
n. A statement was made by the plat
form manager on Thursday evening
to the effect that the papers had said
that evening that there was a panic
in the audience the evening previous
at the time of the storm.
So far as this paper is concerned
that statement was erroneous.
In large headlines on the front page
the Palladium said
Large Chautauqua Crowd Keeps

This is only referred to because the
public is constantly accusing the press
of inaccuracy.
When the truth is that not one per-
son out of two reads the papers as
they're printed.
The excellent platform manager, for
whom the writer has the highest es-
TEEN, evidently saw double on Thurs
day evening.
