HORSES HAVE CHAMPION
I'M CAPITAL WOMAN
She Objects TO Bells on Their Necks
Because 1t Breaks Down Their
Nervous Systems.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S.-Horses
with ears attuned to music who have
been tortured by the discordant jangle
of bells hung around their neck or
attached TO the shafts of the vehicles
they draw, have found a champion.
A fashionably dressed woman We'd
nesday filed formal protest against
this newest form of cruelty with Secy.
John p. Heap OF the local humane
society. Mr.. Heap promised he
would investigate the matter.
It's perfectly dreadful" said the
woman, whose name Mr.. Heap de-
clined to give. Horses afflicted with
a lot of bells all clan6ing and jangling
out of tune are doomed to become
nervous wrecks. 1t is form of
cruelty that will break down the
nervous SYSTEM of any horse"
Mr. Heap assured his caller that he
appreciated the torture a unsteady
inclined horse must suffer. He may
call in a nerve specialist to aid in
the investigation

WIT AND HUMOR
ARE EXPLAINED
Dr.. F. H. Green at Teachers
Institute Tells of the Differ
enCe Between the Two
Pleads For Laughter.

DR.. F. II. Green in his lecture We'd
nesday afternoon on the subject wit
and Humor', at the county teachers
institute. being held this week at the
high school, made a strong plea for
the spirit Of laughter JOY and sun
shine in the school as we'll as in the
home and everywhere.
The session was well attended and
at its close 1t was decided 10 hold
the winter meetings Of the association
on Friday and Saturday Oct. 81 and
Nov. /. instead Of at Thanksgiving
time, and the association fee was
made rs cents. The program commit
tee will consist of Supt. r. II. Long
field, J. L. Nuner of Mishawaka and
Supt. L. ]. Montgomery. The best
talent available will be secured.
In his lecture Of the afternoon DR..
Green said that wit is that subordi-
nate quality Of discourse whose object
is amusement, whose elements are
surprise, incongruity and perversion.
and whose for mis- brief and antithei-
ical. He said that humor is that sub
ordinate quality of discourse whose
object is pleasure and whose elements
are surprise, sensibility and kindness.
To distinguish the two, he said:
wit laughs at you; humor laughs with
you. Wit is a brilliant flash; humor
silent; humor is permanent. Wit is
bold; humor is gentle. Wit is indif-
ferent; humor is kindly. Wit is de-
structive: humor is constructive. Wit
focolizes: humOr radiates Wit
sparkles; hume glows. Wit surprises
and humor pleases."
DR.. S. G. Schumucker's theme for
the afternoon was "a Family of Spin
ners", having reference TO the spiders.
He declared that the bite of the spider
is harmless, saying that he would
rather be bit by spider any time
than to be scratched by a pin which
had been picked up in public place
such as a street car.
One OF the big programs of the in
stitute will be held on Thursday, while
on Friday, DR.. Schumacher will use
his big subject OF the program, THE
Future OF America Agriculture, for
his mornings lecture.

EVA TANGUAY COMING

Eva Tanguay. the cyclonic comedi-
enne, has been appearing in the four
larger cities Of the country so ex-
clusively that IL began TO look as
though few outside cities would ever
see her. For Miss Tanguay received
$500 and $4,000 for singing alone,
and $500 for her own Interpretation
OF Salome and those figures made her
appearance outside prohibitive.
But ii was Miss Tanguay who solved
the problem. After breakia all rec
ords I'm the New York theaters in
competition with such players as Nat
G. Goodwin. Valeska Suratt and Ade-
line Gene, Miss Tanguay concluded to
tour the country at the head of her
own company. She picked out top
notch acts in the Vaudeville and legiti-
mate field. and put them into the Eva
Tanguay Novelty company, and this
interesting organization will be seen
at the Oliver soon.
A special grand opera orchestra is
carried by Miss Tanguay while the
scenery used in her Salome act is said
TO be one of the most expensive on the
American stage. This is Miss Tan
guay's first annual tour.
