CAUGHT AT LAsT-HoRsE THIEVES
GATHERED IN OUT OF THE RAM
Last summer Alpheus Sine, who lives
near Blacksyille, this county, had
two valuable horses stolen. John
Pounds, of Greene county, Pa, a
penitentiary bird of the bigamist
type, and cousin by the name of
Al. Foster, of Altoona, Pa, were seen
riding them toward the Pennsylvania
line Somewhere on the route they
managed to get their hands on two
sets of harness with which they tri-
ed to cover their horses and their
tracks at the same time. Prosecuting
Atty Houston, learning these facts,
began to work up the case. Detectives
were set to work and Foster was
found in Pittsburgh without much
trouble; but difficulty was exper-
fenced in tracking Pounds, who, by
the way, was considered the leader.
Houston secured an old photograph of
Pounds and sent it to Chief of Police
Murphey, of Allegheny, who was
thereby enabled to identify Pounds.
As soon as the proper requisition
documents can be made out and
signed by Governors Wilson and
Pattison the thieves will be brought
here for trial. The same parties
were arrested in Pittsburgh not long
since on another charge, but were
released because of some technical
Irregularities.
A great many valuable hofses have
been spirited away from the upper
end of this county recently hnd it is
to be hoped that the case of Pounds
and Foster will be made h strong
warning to Others simila Fly dis
posed.

University Notes.
BY OUR SPECIAL REPORTER.


On account of the misconduct of
some of the students, the reading
room has been closed for a few days
President Turner made a speech to
the boys on Monday morning in ref
erence to it. He said that although
he did not advocate the doctrine that
one boy should inform on his fellows,
except in extraordinary cases. He
thought this was such case. He
said he hoped the boys would organ
ize and suppress this vandalism. He
left the matter with the students. The
room will remain closed, until the
students tell him that they will look
to the protection of it's magazines
and papers.
DIR. Thompson's eloquent lectures
have made the boys feel more than
ever, how much in the backwoods
our University is, in not providing,
each year, a full course of such lect-
ures, for her students. Let those in
authority look to it, that next year
we have some money appropriated
for this purpose.
Ex-President Thompson, in his
chapel speech, "hit the nail on the
head" as he always does, in his ref
erence to President Turner's eminent
qualifications for the position he
holds. He said if he had been cut out
and made expressly for the place
he could not have fit it better. He
concluded his eulogy on the Presi-
dent, by emphasizing his christian
manhood, telling the boys to be
proud of him, proud of their Uni
versity, proud of their State and
proud of themselves. That this
truly merited praise was responded
to by the boys, was shown by the
way in which they cheered, upon it's
conclusion.
A publishing company in New
York has offered prize of fine set
of law books to the member of our
law class, who shall write and send
them the best essay upon some law
subject. This is quite a generous
offer and doubtless all the members
of the class will enter the contest.
This years class is one of the most
able in the history of the law depart
ment. 1t contains four of the alum
nj of the University, while the 9TH
ers are all men of great capacity and
experience in the world.
Joe Devine visited the Parthenon
literary society, Friday night and
gave them a fine talk, after which,
he rendered, in that inimitable style
of his, "Shamus "O'Brien."
We are glad to say student Arm
strong, who has been very ill, is
better.
FUNNY THINGS TO SEE
White trying to sell lecture tickets
to the Prof of Ancient of Languages
(Some things are determined to al
ways remain ancient).
Two students taking young ladies
home from the lecture who came by
themselves. Wonder if these Young
bloods refunded the young ladies
their quarter.
Prof. Whitehill entering chapel
since the adjunct Prof. of Physics
and Chemistry arrived.
White and Dawson Bros. forming
a combination to take care of Dur
hannah.
"Shep' trying to decide whether
to open up a clothing house or not.
He says there's more ways of kill
ing cats than by drowning:" if he
can't get ahead of "that firm" among
the ladies, he believes he can GUST
them, by underselling them. -
