William B. Wilson of Pennsylvania. Tho complaint that collogea are too rapidly away from tho old 'learning is ono very frequently heard In our day. Many peoplo have attributed this drift to the fact that undergraduates aro permitted to map cut their own courses of study, and to do this undor the Influence of a delusion that only the so termed "practical' subjects aro apt to provo of any sorvlco to them In after life, says tho Boston Herald. Henco the, classes In accounting, or In Industrial chemistry, or In political science aro large enough to tax tho capacity of college lecture rooms, while professors of Greek or Sanskrit discourse to half empty boncb.es on tho beauties of tho "Odyssey" and tho apphor-lsms of tho "Big Veda." But the experience of tho university extension courses which have been offered in Boston during tho last three or four years seems to provo that the superior magnetism of tho so-called bread and butter studies Is Just as pronounced In tho outer world as It Is within tho college gates.

If Dr. Friedman of Berlin carries out his reported Intention of turning over his phthisis cure to the German government the "world will have an opportunity to Judge It on Its merits. So far tho world has had a right to reserve Its opinion, and to remark that there was nothing to distinguish ihls methods of exploitation from thoso of tho charlatans. A Harvard psychologist has discovered singing mlco and will train them. 'A race of rodent songsters may be developed who will make holes in One's walls and floors vibrant with melodies Instead of hideous with squeals.

Following this cue, oven iback fences may; become sources of aural delights. The remnant of official serfdom has been abolished In Russia. But real serfdom In that country will end only with the abolition of autocracy. No people can really be free who accept for their government the irresponsible will of ono man, no matter how good or wise he may happen to be. Admiral Dewey gives outdoor exorcise and abstinence from banquets as the recipe for keeping young In one's Boventios.

Tho conqueror of Manila evidently knows how to conquer other things, and 'his advice Is worth the taking. According to present proposals, every plollcoman in Philadelphia is to be an eloctrlc battery to stun prisoners into submission. Naturally, tho sentimentally inclined will denounce tho scheme as too shocking. A Parisian la now trying to figure out the ago of a seagull with an iron ring dated 1800 on Its log. It may bo forty- throe years old, but it smacks of a gull of another kind.

A movomont 1b now on foot to prevent tho entrance of Immigrants who cannot write a "rocognlzod language." Often tho languago may be recognized, but not In the writing. A Cincinnati hunter says ho shot a rabbit with rod oyos and a yellow tail. It Is moro likely that It wasn't the rabbit that was shot. In Athens a woman Is fined 40 every time she wears a largo hat to tho theater. Contrary to tho ldoals of Orolc art no doubt.

It struck a hard -substance and formed a head. Dr.

Nolan, with a knife, whittled the head off tho sliver before it could be removed. Fcnton recovered, entered the service, served his time, but twelve years, later he died from tho effects of it. By medical authorities, Fcnton's recovery was considered a miracle. This case has recently been discussed bv tho medical fraternity of Toledo. It is thought by.

some that this wreck had been planned by tho Copperheads. The Vallindighnm campaign was at its height in Ohio. Before the engines came together tho crew of both trains made hnsto for the woods, pursued by the soldiers. To confirm their suspicions, there was a Union campaign held'at Perrysburg addressed by Gen. R.

C. Schenck, of the' Union army. While the citizens were attending the meeting, a fiat car, from Toledo, loaded with Copperheads, came to Perrysburg. They attacked many Union soldiers on the streets, severely injuring Albert Fro-ney, John Cornell and Thomas Avery. When the alarm came to the court house, the meeting adjourned for a short time.

As a result of the attack on the Union soldiers, several Copperheads' bones are still lying in the bottom of the Maumee river. After being taken to the Oliver House, David Kesson and William Finley wei-e detailed as nurses. Some of us were at the hospital nearly two months. The iniured men all recovered.
