Another Sensation in Russia.

ST. PETERSBURG, Jnne "a.
A sensation was created here this morning
by the receipt of kilograms from Odessa,
announcing that Capt. Gerdsera, q prominent
officer of the gendarmes, had been assassina-
ted by the Nihilists. His body was found
with bullet hole in the temple and a dagger
sticking in his heart. A note was pinned to
his coat, which left no doubt but that the
murder was the work of the Nihilists. Capt.
Gerdsera's murder has produced q sensation
in Russia equal to that of the murder of Lieut..
Col. Ludeiken.

Hanover College.

To the Editor OF the indianapolis journal:
Last Friday, in company with John 6. Blake,
visited this old and far-famed college. We
drove at once out to the college building to visit
the Philalathean Society then in session We
found the hall filed with students. 1t was the
evening session which, in both the literary soci
cites there, is devoted to debates. The PhllaIs
were wrestling with the question Of Prohibition.
The speeches pro and con were excellent and
far beyond what we expected from college stu
dents. The judges being equally divided on
the question as discussed, the president of the
society gave the deciding vote in favor Of the
negative, j. e., against prohibition
The next morning we visited the college, when
we met President Fisher, who is making a most
efficient president. He has developed wonder
full abilities as business man in his manage
ment Of college finances. A. large number of
workmen were employed in completing the col
lege chapel The large laboratories, the extern
sive geological and natural history collections,
the wellarranged libraries, the buildings and
college campus, all indicated prosperity and good
management. The personnel of the students
attracted our attention as being far above the
average.
On Sabbath there were three services. The
regular Monday services in the village church
were conducted by L. w. Munhall the secre-
tary of the Y. II. G. A. of Indiana He also
preached to the students in the college service in
the afternoon. Both of his addresses indicated
that he was the right man in the right place.
The regular Y M. G. A. services of the evening
were conducted by Mr.. Blake whose appeal to
TIE students will never be forgotten by them.
Everything about the institution bore evidence
that Hanover College is in good hands. The
professors are enthusiastic in their work; the
students Zealousin their studies and, what is
more important, they are not forming those hab-
its of dissipation that mar the lives of college
students in some places Parents may send
their sons or daughters to Han
over with perfect security. In this
respect Hanover College has always been
noted. No saloons or other temptation entice
! the young man into those paths that lead to
| ruin. It has been many years since 1 last Wis
tied the college, and its greatly improved condi
ton prompts me to tell your readers what saw
there While give due honor to all the colleges
| of the State certainly think none possesses
| greater advantages.to the young man or woman
desiring an education than old Hanover.
