CHANGE At KRAMER'S
Big Plant is to Be Equipped
For Electric Power.

Important changes in the motive
power for the machines at the G.. q
w. Kramer Lumber company's plant
on West Fifth street, are being con-
sidered. The management is plan
ming to have the machinery operated
by electricity instead of by steam,
and electrical men have already fig
ured on the cost of making the change
The members of the company stated
that these changes will be made grad
ually, and not all the steam would be
discarded at one time. At present
there are a number of small machines
which probably will be attached to
motors soon, but these form only a
small part of the cOmpany's machin-
cry. 1t is contemplated changing
from steam to the more modern power
for the larger engines as the boilers
depreciate. At present there are no
boilers in the plant which should be
discarded, but these are not new, and
the owners do not expect them to last
much longer. The initial cost of mo-
tors and other electrical machinery
to operate the huge saw mills is very
large.

EARLHAM To HAVE
VERY STRONG TEAM
Prospects for a Good Football
Season This Fall Excep-
tionally Good.

That Earlham's prospects in foot
ball this fall are exceptionally good is
vouched for by Coach Reagan, who
predicts that Earlham will have one
of the fastest teams in her history.
If there is any thing in dope Reagan
substantiates his claim. Seven of last
vears "E" men will be in school again
his fall: Bogue, half-back; Johnson,
quarter; Thistlethwaite, tackle; Will
liams, half; Stanley, end; Senior and
Lamb, guards. Beside these regulars
several of last years most promising
scrubs will be back: Darnell, Fowler,
Cox, Mills, Cooper and Trueblood.
Several new men from academies
and high schools are touted as sensa-
tional players. Georgetown will be rep
resented by Thorntown and Bowling, a
pair of half backs who have won a
name for themselves in the east. Fair
mount Academy is sending Gaddis,
end, Moorish, a lineman, and Lewis,
who will probably be tried out at cen
ter.

noon today the board of inquiry of the
department of immigration, which has
been considering the deportation OF
Harry Thaw. adjourned permanently
with the announcement that the find
ing would he made public at 4 o'clock.
Immediately before adjournment
Deputy Attorney General Kennedy, of
New York state, identified Thaw as
the man who had been incarcerated
in the Matteawan asylum for criminal
insane since his acquittal of the muir
der of Stanford White.
All indications were that Thaw
would be deported forthwith. Even
Thaw himself believed this.
The sensation of the day was the
arrest of Attorney Jerome on the
charge of gambling. Attorneys White
and Shurtleff, of the Thaw counsel
assured Mr.. Jerome that they had
nothing to do with his arrest. and of,
fered to defend him free of charge.
Jerome declared that if Thaw were
deported this evening. he would fol.
low him into the United States. even
if it involved the violation of his bail
bond. Jerome will be arraigned for a
hearing tomorrow morning at
o'clock
The fact that no warrants were is
sued for those who played poker with
Jerome is taken to indicate malice
and to foreshadow Jerome's acquittal

SOIL TESTS WERE
TAKEN YESTERDAY
ON S. HARLAN FARM

The first of the series of fertilizer
tests and experimental plats by Coun-
~ Agent A. D. Cobb, was made yes
terday afternoon on the farm of Sam
uel l. Harlan. near Blossoms Station.
- wheat field was divided into four
sections. one OF which sections was
not treated. Another section was
treated with phosphoric acid and pot
ash. another was inoculated with nj
trogen, phosphoric acid and potash
and the last was fortified with nitro
gen and phosphoric acid.
The reason for the tests being made
is to establish what ingredients the
soil needed in that section to propa-
gate a good crop of wheat. The field
treated will be planted in wheat
Wayne county farmers have been
warned not to plant their wheat IN
til after September Is. According to
Mr.. Cobb the wheat will be subject to
the ravages of the larvae of the Hes
sian fly if planted before that time.
The larvae is deposited by the fly on
the wheat stocks and the wheat is at
tackled during the late winter and
early spring.

Now Facing Grand Lar
ceny Prosecution.

Willard Shores. aged 10. and his
brother, Moses, aged Is. 34S South
West Second street. were arrested
yesterday afternoon by Patrolman Vo-
gelsong and are charged with grand
larceny They will be bound over to
the Juvenile court. They were later
released and their parents have prom
ised TO answer any summons of the
court for them.
The arrests followed clever work of
Patrolman Vogelsong. after reports OF
several dozen stolen BICYCLES had
come to the police. When the boys
were arrested they had four bicycles
each in their possession. and are be-
lieved TO have stolen and left in vari-
Gus places as many as fifty wheels
within the past two months.
A few days ago. after Vogelsong
had noticed the boys riding on several
different wheels. he met Willard
Shores leading a large bicycle up the
Main street hill. II was too high for
the ten-year-old boy to ride. When
asked to whom the bicycle belonged.
young Shores replied that IL was his
fathers. The arrests Were made af-
ter Shores discarded the sheeE When
it was claimed by the owner, Floyd
Flood. Vogelsong identified is as the
one Willard had claimed was his faith
er's.
Stolen bicycles were returned to the
following owners yesterday: Jesse
Bailey, ex-chief of police. c. T. Wiley.
Earl Murphy. Henry Schneider. Oscar
Dickinson, Lloyd Hensley. Harry
Aiken and Floyd Flood. There are
three more at the police station.
The boys admitted the thefts to the
police. Both said they had stolen the
first one after they had seen other
boys riding wheels and could not buy
one for themselves.
AS they were not caught their thefts
became regular and they had no scru-
pies in taking any bicycle they could
get away with, riding ii until they
became tired OF it.
When asked why they had taken so
many wheels to their home, they re-
piled that they often walked along
the street, and seeing a bicycle, would
appropriate il and ride II back home.
They said they had no intention Of
selling what they took; that their OBJ
ject was to own bicycle.

SCHOOL TEACHERS
HAVE SHORT LIFE
Work So Confirming 1t Under
mines Teachers Health,
Williams SAYS.

County Supt. Williams stated this
morning that the life Of the average
person who taught school was shorter
than the life OF persons engaged in
practically and other vocation.
The teachers work is for the most
part unusually combining. according TO
Supt Williams. -
The belief that teachers are through
work AS soon as school is over az
that they only work FIVE days in thu
week is a mistake. according TO Mr.
Williams. Most OF them are husily en-
gagged correcting examination papers
nights and Saturdays. when many peo-
pie believe they are of duty Many OF
them work while people in other vo-
cations are At liberty TO attend
church" said Mr. Williams.
The chalk dust and the poor venti-
lation in many OF the school rooms is
responsible for the short lives OF the
teachers. Mr.. Williams believes an in
teresting record OF the number OF
years lived by the average pedagosus
may be prepared.

GOVERNMENT WILL
STOCK LAKE HERE
Morton Park Directors Send
Request for Thirty Thous-
and Fish to Uncle Sam.

Charles Jordan, secretary of the
Commercial Club, stated this morning
that the Morton Lake and Park COM
pany had filed acquisitions with the
United States government for 10000
fish with which to stock the lake.
Three consignments of small black
bass have already been received and
freed in the river above the lake.
The directors do not expect to re-
ceive the other 10000 until next spring
after the lake has been filled.
State Fish and Game Commissioner,
Wilcox, of Ohio. was in the city this
morning comforting with Secretary
Jordan relative to building fish lad
iers on the west side of the dam. He
said that he feared the fish would go
down the stream in the fall and then
would be unable to get back on the
Ohio side In the spring. Commissioner
Wilcox thinks that the fish which the
company will place in the lake will be
sufficient to stock the Whitewater
River and its branches across the line.
Secretary Jordan said that the com
pany had intended to construct the
fish ladders, as required by the laws

Nav PLAY Boque Quarter.

In case Johnson who has been sick
this summer does not get in shape to
go in as quarter 1t is likely that Cap
tain Bogue will go into that position.
Bogue is one of the best players that
ever wore Earlham colors Three years
ago his was all state half in California.
and for the past two years he has
been one of the main stays of the
Quakers. He is quick, cool, fast run
ner, hard tackler, and knows the
game from A to u. In the pivot posi-
ton he should make one OF the best
field generals in the game. Williams,
who played half last year, will in all
probability be put in at full. He is
heavy, fast and a hard man to tackle.
If Thornton and Bowling of George
town show the class that is expected
of them it is likely that they will COM
plete what Reagan predicts will be the
fastest back field in the state.
Have Strong Line.
A good start on a strong line will
be made with four regulars, Thistleth-
waite, Stanley, Senior and Lamb, back
In school. Gaddis of Paramount should
make right end, and Lewis will prob
ably get the center place; and Morrish
Fowler and Cooper should put up a
hard fight for the other position.
Coach Reagan, who will have the
destinies of the team in charge, has
been attending the Wisconsin summer
school of coaching, and has host of
new ideas in the shape of new forma-
tons and trick plays. which will be
tried out on the Quakers this fall. Rea-
gan, who played on the Earlham team
quarters in the state, and has prac-
teal knowledge of the game, which
with good material will be sure to de-
velope a first class team.
Schedule Not Heavy One.
The schedule this year will not be
quite as heavy as last. The Indiana
game has been dropped, and Ken
lucky State has been substituted for
Cincinnati No game will be played on
the first Saturday because of the late
start of school. Two light games will
be played on the eleventh and eigh-
teenth in preparation of the hard fight
of the championship struggle. The
Wabash game will be the big contest
of the season. For the two past years
the Little Giants have defeated the
Quakers by the narrowest possible
score, in both cases depriving them OF
the championship. The cry this year
will be defeat Wabash" and if this
is done the coach and team will be sat
istied with their years work.
The complete schedule is as follows
