the young men watched and waited,
but the sharks kept at distance,
their fears stronger than their hum
ger. On the third day, however, at
about eleven in the morning, one Of
the ravcnous Grew daxted forward and
closed his big jaws on the horses
flank. Then the other sharks drew
nearer, and for two hours there were
a score of them within striking dis
tanco. Tho time had como for the
sensational picture!"
Then comes the description of how
a native boy Jumped overheard among
this hungry drove Of sman-eaters'' and,
before they could get away drove his
long knife into tho belly OF ono Of
them and killed him.
Unfortunately this battle occurred
just out Of range of the picture ma

again The next time one of the notion

of the camera. It was a great feat
of course, but neither the natives nor
Americans who were present seemed to
think there was much danger OF get-
ting 'fbit'' by the shark himself.

This ts exactly what The Journal
said in previous discussion of the
subject. Men who come out of the
water ana tell you they were attacked
by shark simply imagined It was q

which is very common in these waters,
or barracuda, which is common in
all tropical waters.
So far as the shark himself Ii con-
cerned. The Journal feels that this
scientific experience with him in his
native lair has vindicated this paper
in it's defense of this nnnch-abused sea
monster and has as well indicated
the shark on the charge Of being a
"man-eater."

Bill has admitted the possibility of

Rousch, Campbell, and Kauff, com

Of the Hoosiers for g greater part Of

very big salary. Now he demands a

compromise will be effected.
Jack Hendricks, despite the fact
that he has been reported as nego-

Hendricks developed a team which
finished in the first division last year

AT MAIN STREET

At 3 o'clock Friday morning the burglar alarm at H.. R. Woodward's s jeweIry store at No. 134 Main street started to ring and a half dozen or mere policemen were immediately des- patched to the store by First Sergeant Alien c. Matthews from police head Quarters to ascertain the cause
 When the police arrived at the store nothing could be seen that suggested break. but a thorough examination of the premises in that vicinity was made by the officers As the police were unable to get into the store to make further examination, Policeman Myron O. Morgan went to MT. Wood wards residence at No. 2G Spalding street, and notified him. He came to the store on the run as soon as pos sible, disconnected the alarm, and let the policemen into the store where they made a thorough search. but found no evidence of any intruders Later investigation showed that the alarm had been set off accidentally as it was found that a connection had been made by a spring which supports a skylight above the centre of the store The spring evidently had be- come weak and settling down had al- lowed the skylight to settle and com plete the burglar alarm circuit

At the annual conelave of Colum- bian commandery, No. 1, Knights Templar. held at the Masonic. temple Friday evening the annual reports of it's officers showed it to be in a better condition. both financially and nlIner- ically. than ever before in its his tory.
 Eminent Commander George E. Par sons has been a tireless worker for the good of the body. has had the sup- port of the entire membership and has knighted 29 candidates, that being the largest number of candidates ever knighted by any commander of this conlmandery in any one year. Much that is new in the way of rega1ia and general equipment has been added to the resources of the commandery dur ing the year and yet the year has ended with the strongest financial showing of any year since the com mandery was organized. In recognition of this excellent condition the emil nent commander appointed Past Com mander J. Herbert George, Sir Knight William H. CardweIl and Sir Knight Clarence P. Roath as trustees and by v2te of the conmandery a very sub stantiaI sum was turned over to them for investment.

In addition, the commandery au- thorized the eminent commander to procure the Fegalia and equipment and make all necessary arrangements for the working of the Order of the Knight of Malta in full form. The work in the Order of the Knight of Malta when put on in full form is beautiful and very impressive, but at the present time Washington Commandery, No 1, of Hartford is the only Commandery in this state that confers this work in full form. The installation of a priory in this city for the working of the Order of the Knight of Malta in full form will be a notable event not only in the Masonic history of Nor wicb but also in that of the state and cry are looking forward to that oc- casion with enthusiastic anticipation.
 The following officers were elected for the ensuing year:
 George E. Parsons. eminent com mander; Louis H. Geer, generalis- simo; Herbert R. Kind, captain-gen- eral' Peter S. Wilson, senior warden; Guy B. Dolbeare, junior warden; D. Allen BidwelI, prelate: John C. Averill, treasurer; Frederick w. Lester, re- corder.
 The eminent commander made the following appointments:
 Costello Lippitt, prelate emeritus; Aubrey W. Jarvis, standard bearer Ernest J. Jones, sword .bearer: J. Olf- yer Armstrong, Warder: Joseph H. Hall, third guard; George F. Zimmer- man. second guard; James NJ Sanford, first guard: Paul H. Zahn, assistant guard; William Loefier, assistant guard; Frederick W. Lester, organist; James C. Fitzpatrick, commissary and sentinel
 Standing Committee-Past Com manders James c. Macpherson, James L. Hubbard and Nelson J. Ayling.
 Committee on Dues-George E Par sons. eminent commander; Frederick W. Lester, recorder. and Past Com mander J. Herbert George.
 The officers were installed by Past Commander Charles Billings Chapman assisted by Past Commander J. Her bert George as grand marshal
 Under Eminent Commander Parsons the commandery has made steady pro- e~ess and increasing enthusiasm is being shown by the very large attend ance at conclaves throughout the year. All of the sir knights are highly pleased at the excellent condition of the commandery and are looking for ward to another successful year.
