A disastrous fire struck the Dan
Finanne farm about mile north of
Evansville, destroying very large new
barn, silo, cattle barn and horse barn.
They were threshing when the fire was
discovered at about o'clock Saturday
afternoon in the straw pile near the
blower, where it was thought the fire
in some way originated. The fire
spread so rapidly that all efforts to
check it were in vain, the only building
saved being the house which was some
small distance from the barns. Three
or four plows and some small machin
cry belonging to the tenant were de-
stroyed, also 1876 bushels Of barley and
$50 bushels of oats, which had just
been threshed, along with the straw of
same and 125 loads of hay. The loss
was not half covered by insurance.

COOKING TERMS MADE PLAIN
With These Thoroughly In Mind the
Housekeeper WIN Have Complete
Understanding of Recipes.


Different terms are properly used
for different methods of combining
ingredients In cooking, as any one
who has handled a cook book very
much must know. But every one who
has tried to cook does not know just
what these various terms signify.
Stirring is one thing, beating Is an
other. folding and cutting are yet
others-that we all know. But what
are they?
Stirring is effected with circular
motion, widening from the center.
That Is the technical description.
Folding is the term applied to the
motion which prevents the air already
inclosed from escaping and at the
same time mixes the ingredients con-
cerned. 1t is this motion which must
be used when whipped cream, beaten
egg whites and other light and beaten
ingredients are mixed together or
with more solid masses.
Keep the meaning of these terms In
mind when you cook according to
recipe. Remember that an ordinary
cake you stir and beat. An omelet
you beat and fold, and you do the
same thing to a sponge cake.
Cutting is the lightest sort of mix
ing-hardly mixing at ALL Shortening
is sometimes cut into -four with
knife. But the shortening and -four
cannot be mixed completely by cnt-
ting.

PENNSY DROPS INDIAN GAME7
Movement Against Annual Contest Re-
flected In Alumni RegIster-No
Sport to Play Redmen.

Truxton, chairman Of the football
committee, and other men closely iden-
titled with the gridiron game at the
University Of Pennsylvania deplore a
movement on the part of certain alum
nj to have Pennsylvania sever football
relations with the Carlisle Indian
school and drop the Redskin team
from next seasons schedule.
The movement against the Pennsyl-
vania-Indian contest is reflected in
the following article in the Alumni
Register. just issued:
The coach of the Indian team d.
rected the play of his men from the
side lines. Wearing white shoes, he
stood upon one foot and then the 9TH
er, moving his free extremity up and
down the number of times necessary
to indicate the play he wanted. The
other large universities do not play
the Indians. 1t Is remunerative
game, but not sport. We should like
to see a college substituted and we
think Pennsylvania men would enjoy
more a game with their fellows.
The attention of Mr.. Hare, who was
one Of the greatest players Pennsyl-
vania ever produced, who played sew
eral hard games himself against Car
Isle in the past, was called to the
charge that Glen Warner. the Indian
coach, had signaIed his men from the
side lines.
Il saw the game" said he, and l
watched the side lines closely War
ner did nothing to indicate to me that
he was coaching his team In any ille-
gal of unethical fashion. / did net
see him do anything out of the way,
nor do I believe that he did anything
ne should not have done
Following the Indian game last sea
son there were charges made that
Warner had worn white shoes and
used his feet to signal plays to his
team. Warner issued a formal state
ment denying this. He explained that
his shoes had become soaked on the
wet, muddy field, and that he bor-
rowed q pair of overshoes. The over
shoes proving too large. he declares,
he stuffed them with newspapers.
This, he explains led to the report
that he had worn white shoes.
