On last Saturday afternoon, Otterbein went down in defeat to the Ohio Medical University, of Columbus, by the close score of of 13 to 12.
The fiirst inning was particularly disastrous for Otterbein when eight runs crossed the plate. Pitcher Grabill seemed to be up in the air and he had a good cause. Several easy chances for outs were lost and this, with a couple of hits
To show their respect for the law, the safe crackers visited the blacksmith shop of Marshal Strahl and secured there their tools with which they forced their entrance into the postoffice building.
This burglary serves to bring to mind forcibly the ease with which crooks may operate in a town whose streets are not lighted. othing but rare good luck ha s prevented the occurrence of more thieving and crimes of this kind during the past three months that the streets have been in darkness.

Y. M. C. A.
Th e illustrated lecture given by Rev. James Hai g la s t Wednesday evening before hoth th e Y. M. and Y. W. C. A., was well attended and th oroug"hl y enjoyed by all present.
Rev. Ha ig gave many fine views of mission work in its varied phases, views of the work among the colored, the poor white, the foreign and the criminal population of Columbus.
These views we r e tak en from actual photographs and this, together with the fact that the lecture consi ted almost wholly of the personal experiences of Rev. Haig himself, made the lectnre very interesting and beneficial.
Just preceding the lecture Mrs. Rev. Haig favored us with a solo, "The Two Lives."
Rev. Haig and wife have been laboring in the mission work in Columbus for the past fifteen years and are certainly accomplishing a great work.
