Declines to Confer.

The trustees of Dartmouth College in
New Hampshire, referred to sub
committee the question of conferring
the degree of LID. upon Gov Butler
of Massachusetts. The committee, after
considerable discussion and conference
with members of the alumni, decided
that no action should be taken this year.
The committee recognized the validity
of the grounds upon which the applica-
ton was based, and personally favored
the granting of the degree. The Gen
eral, it was urged, was perhaps the most
eminent member of his profession in
America. No stain rested upon his
private life. He was son of New
Hampshire, and an intimate friend of
many of the graduates of the college. A
of the committee, in an inter-
view, gave as reason for the action
taken, that to confer the degree would
tend to bring the college into politics, in
which it had had an unhappy experience
in connection with the course Of former
President on the abolition Of slavery
Massachusetts,, he said, was in political
tumult which involved its institutions Of
learning, and to have our college step in
at this moment and honor Gen. Butler
when so many opportunities had before
been given, would be at least i'll advised.
had refused the degree, and it /
might seem as though Dartmouth was
itself into the quarrel with
Harvard, if she should now honor Gen.
Bntler.

THEN AND NOW

All the years of longing, waiting,
All the hours Of loving, hating,
All the dreaming, hesitating,
That have borne me as a river
Bears the vessels that we give her
Looking back, l sigh and shiver
At the time tween then and now.
Days of summer warmth and gladness,
Moments of delicious madness,
And the nights of fearful sadness
That have ruled my brow with care-lines,
Chilled me when the MONDAY sun shines,
Placed the thorns where memory still twine
Round the time tween then and now.
Midst the tumult of life's hurry
And the thousand things that worry,
Shall the bloom become berry?
Shall the bud become flower
That shall fill some sheltered bower
With a wond'rous perfume shower?
Shall the then be lost in now?

the shutters closed. Rabbi Rev. Dr.
Brown preached. The dedication GER

A SENSATION.
A high Life Scandal

Omaha, ga sensation has been
stirred up here to-day by Mrs. Ma
tllda A. Ward bringing two suits
against James Bonner, furniture
dealer. The first suit was brought
in the police court, the object being
to secure protection against alleged
threats made verbally and in letters
against Mrs. Ward; the second suit
is brought in the district court for
SANDER, damages being laid at
I$3, 900. Mrs. Ward is a respectable
lady, very handsome, and the
mother of several children, she
having son 81 years old. She has
long been a prominent member of
the First Methodist Charcb, in
which also Mr.. Bonner is shining
light. She is a sister to
Bonner's wife also a cousin of Bon
ner, She claims that Bonner has
for long time past, paid undue at
tention to her; has logged her foot
steps about the town, to and from
church. and has greatly annoyed her.
He even went SO far as TO suggest
that she get divorced from her hus-
band and that he would secure a di-
vorc9 from his wife and then they
would get married. In his letters
he showed that he was jealous of
her and intimated that if he could
not have her he would do
something to make himself
and her die together and
lie in their shrouds, as a dead
trouble is better than living one.
Mrs. Ward finally gave the whole
thing away to her friends and to the
church authorities, and asked for
advice, and at this juncture, Bon
ner is alleged to have confessed that
he has had criminal intercourse with
Mrs. Ward for a number of years.
This was too much and she imme-
diately took steps to refute the
Islander, which she asserts is ma
licious, false and uttered for Ie
v6ng6,
