The Junior Ex Friday Evening

A Sensation Flattened Out

Newman Breach of Promise Suit Dropped

Settlement Reached

Mrs. Newman Pays Part of the Chattel Mortgage and Gets Lease on Hotel

The $20,000 breach of promise suit of Mrs. Mattie Newman vs. Charles F. Kayser has been settled out of court and those who have been anticipating a trial with some racy testimony will have to go 'way back and sit down until the troubles of somebody else get into court.

The suit was precipitated by the fact the Charles F. Kayser, the owner of the Newman house property, has started to foreclose on the chattel mortgage be held on the hotel furnishings of Mrs. Newman. There were also proceedings taken to get her out of the hotel.

The attorneys got together and arranged matters whereby Mrs. Newman is to pay a part of the chattel mortgage and she gets a lease of the property for one year with the privilege of two more.

Thus she will be left in the quiet enjoyment of the property and Mr. Kayser will continue to manufacture cigars.

The case is dismissed by stipulation.

The Junior Ex Friday Evening

Despite counter attractions the junior exhibition at the high school Friday evening was the center of interest for a large number of people.

Ten young people, the pick of the junior class, carried out a most pleasing program.

In anticipation of the event the large assembly room had been decorated with the high school, the senior class, and the junior class colors. In silver letters on a blue background over the platform was the motto of the class of 1903, "Loyal to Truth." On either side of the platform were banks of palms.

Pro. Pattengill, principal of the high school, was the presiding officer of the evening. With him on he platform, however, were the members of the school board, Supt. Slauson and the high school faculty.

The program was introduced by a selection by the high school orchestra. Rev. J. M. Gelston of the First Presbyterian church offered prayer, after which another selection was rendered by the orchestra.

The first oration was by Arthur Charles Cole. The subject on which he had written was "America in the Philippines." He took an optimistic view of the matter; and presented the facts in such a convincing manner that he won the approval of his hearers.

"A Royal Coronation" by Miss Lillie Louise Hogan was then given. Her introduction was to the effect that people are now looking toward the coming coronation of King Edward VIII. But this event, in her mind, is of no greater significance than the coronation of his mother, Queen Victoria.

Miss Louise Anna Mann told of some of the "Myths of the Rhine." One was the story of the clock, which is always an hour ahead of time in commemoration of the narrow escape of the city from capture. Another myth was that of the silver bells--the one which tolled at the death of an emperor and the other at the death of a common person--and their transposition, which brought forth the thought that with death the the distinction between an emperor and a common person is lost. The several myths were pleasing told.

Leo Harvey Darrow of Chicago, with the timely subject, "Wireless Telegraphy," gave a timely oration. He pointed out the significance of the recent invention, not failing to call attention to its possibilities.

Under the title, "The Model High School," Miss Nellie Malcolm MacNaughton made a few suggestions which those present seemed to endorse. Among other things she said that in the model high school the studies pursued by the pupils would be only those fitted to their special talents. She successfully "hit off" some of the peculiarities of the Ann Arbor institution.

The "Scientific Achievement" described by Miss Rosina Katherine Schenk of Ann Arbor town was a description of the method of getting photographic representations of the minds of the freshmen, sophomores, seniors and juniors. The first was a green background, the second a tangle of algebra definitions and Latin rules; the third a purple and gold mound of conceit; but the juniors had a goodly quantity of common sense and a generous supply of physics' rules.

The question "Have we Outgrown the Monroe Doctrine?" was answered by Victor Benedict Fitzpatrick in the negative. He told of the benefits derived from the Monroe doctrine in the past; and its possibilities for the future.

Miss Lilian Warner presented, under the title, "The Language of the Future," an argument for a universal language. This language she prophesied would be English, and in support of the prophecy she pointed out the great strides made by the Anglo-Saxons and their language up to the present. The advantages of a single language in fields of a single language in fields of science, literature, commerce and diplomacy were not overlooked.

The history of the Ann Arbor high school since organization in 1861 was handled by Horace Douglas Wines under the head of "Ancient History." He referred to the development of the societies, the various interesting incidents that have occurred in former years and paid tributes to several men who have held the position of superintendent, including the present incumbent.

The "Curious Beliefs" of the day were reviewed by Miss Mabel Wood of Lodi. She gave the origins of such superstitions as 13 at a table, the beginning of an undertaking on Friday, the man in the moon, the horse shoe and several others.

Interspersed at suitable intervals were selections by the orchestra.

Great credit for the success of the exhibition is due to the Misses Sara Whedon and Eliza Cady. The former had charge of the composition of the oratories and essays, and the latter carefully drilled the different persons as to the manner of delivery.

Gophers Beat Wolverines

Minnesota Won the Debate From Michigan

Unanimous Decision

But the Verdict was Somewhat Unsatisfactory to the Crowd

Chicago, April 4--By a unanimous decision of the judges the University of Minnesota defeated the University of Michigan in the fourth annual final debate of the Central Debating League held this evening in Music hall, Fine Arts building. The Minnesota men successfully maintained the anti-government position on the Philippine question, arguing for the affirmative of the following question:

"Resolved, That the best interests of the United States forbid that we should permanently hold and govern the Philippines."

The principal point of the Minnesota men was the moral argument. Basing their subsequent arguments on the maxim that governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, they led up to the moral statement, voiced with such telling effect by Hugh J. McClearn in a plea for the honor and integrity of the nation, and an appeal not ot turn a yearn for humanity into a base and sordid struggle for commercial supremacy. The other Minnesota debaters were Benjamin Drake, Jr., and Willis I. Norton.

Hugo Sonnenschein, Andrew J. O'Connor and Leonard O. Meigs were the Michigan debaters. They emphasized the commercial side of the question, but covered it broadly. The north side of the hall was filled with Michigan enthusiasts and the south side with Minnesota "rooters." There was the usual discussion over the decision. Chicago men present, and some Minnesota men, agreed with Michigan men that they should have received the decision. The judges were Judge Deemer, of Iowa; Judge Howland and John W. Ela. Dr. Edmund J. James, president of Northwestern, whose team was defeated by Michigan and formerly of Chicago, who team lost to Minnesota, presided.

A Trying Position.

Ann Arbor Readers will Appreciate this Advice.

A constant itching tries your patience.

Nothing so annoying. Nothing so irritating,

As itching piles or eczema.

To scratch the irritation makes it worse,

To leave it alone means misery.

Some Ann Arbor citizens can tell you how to be free

Free from these troubles. Read the following:

Mrs. T. Martiny of No. 501 Detroit street, says: "I suffered a great deal from fever sores and at times the inflammation caused a burning sensation which was intense. I used numerous ointments and lotions but nothing ever gave me permanent relief. I saw Doan's Ointment highly recommend and got a box at Eberbach & Son's drug store. On applying it, it relieved all the distress and irritation almost at once. I continued the use of it until the part looked healthy and nicely healed."
