Wolcott; senior promenade committee-C. Walker, Cottle, Doggett, Watrous, Bristow, Cornell, Hand, Peters. Phelps and Patter- son; class secretary, J. T. Swift.
 After the elections Mir. W. M. Speer read 8 preamble and resolutions condemning in se- we're terms the senior society system for breeding dissension and i'll feeling in the class, for breaking over all rules of polite ness and building up false aristocracy, for subjecting and bridling the college press, for terrorizing the lower classes and for destroy ing the love of the alumni for their Alma Mater. The class were told that these ale gations were not only true, but were known and believed by all the class. This latter statement was so far from true that when tho reading was finished storm of opposition arose. Several speeches were made on both sides and after much wrang- ling over points of order the opposition car- ried motion to vote by roll call. This so overpowered the delicate sensibilities of the seventy pledged supporters of the resolu- tions that rather than let their views be known twenty one of them refused to vote. The vote stood, yeas 49, nays 67. The members of the three senior societies, ''Bones'', Keys" and "Fox and Grapes" remained during the entire meeting and for getting their poppycock, argued, voted, cheered and applauded as much as the others. It is said that the society men have already begun to f'sour on" those who opposed them.

Arab1 Looks Over The Field.

LONDON, Feb. 1.-Despatches received this morning contain details of an interview with Arabi Pasha at Colombo January 5. Arabi being asked to give his views regarding the situation in Egypt said he felt convinced the present movement of Fl Mahdi is simply 8 continuance of his own which had been only temporarily arrested. The Mahdi he said is g man of great ability and force of character and should not be held too cheaply an enemy Under the most favorable cireum- stances the task of crushing him will be found extremely difficult if not impossible Egypt can never reconquer the Soudan. The people detest the Khedise and despise his family. The Brilish-Egyptian alliance, said he, will last until destiny's inexorable hand shall tear aside the curtain coneealing the imposture which England is unconsclously practising.

The name Niagara has passed through
many photographed changes in the last two
hundred years. In 1857 it was written
Oniagoragh I'm 1856 Governor Dongan
appeared uncertain about it and spelled it
Onniagcro, Onyagara, and Onyagro. The
French i'll 1858 to 1909 wrote it Nia2uro,
Onyagare, Onyagra and Oneygra. Philip
Livingston wrote in 1920 to 1870 Octiagara,
Jagera and Yagerah; and Schuyler and
Livingston, Commissioners of Indian Affairs,
wrote it in 1920 Onjagerae, Ochiagara, etc.
In l721 it was written Onjagora, Oniagara,
and accidentally, probably, Niagara as at
present. Lieutenant Lindsay wrote it
Niagara in 1751, SO did Captain De Lancey
(son of Governor De Lancey), who was an
officer in the English army that captured
Fort Niagara from the French in 1859.
These pioneers may, however, be excused
in view of the fact-as will be attested by
postmastcrs-that some etter-writers of to-
day seem quite as undecided about the

Quirk Stowled about the WY he was
treated in Astoria, Dot remarked that the
Inconvenience he suffered there were more
than made up on his trip down, as he met
plenty of friends on board w o saw that he
wanted for noting. Further conversation
with him showed that he regretted ever
going into politics, and to them and the
false friendship of Gray he lays all his
trouble. The prisoner seemed to be well
posted on the convictions of Gray and
O'Brien, and talked freely of them in dis
interested tone, Speaking of O'Brien he
remarked insinuatingly that if ''Jack'' got

From private source it was incidentally
learned that the woman who went with
Quirk to Honolulu was Mollie Hayes,
who had lived with him several years,
and had two children by him. She left him
in Honolulu, because he was continually
on spree and abused her. She came with
