In Luck.

MILWAUKEE, May Paul Grattkau,
the anarchist agitator, has been released
from the house of correction after serving
but six weeks of his sentence of one
years Imprisonment, on account of the
tcchnicality that when the legislature en-
acted that sentence for ~felonies should not
begin to run until the prisoner was actu-
ally locked up, it did not mention the mis-
demeanors and consequently the time
spent by Grattkau on bail pending the
appeal to the supreme court counted on
his original sentence. The district attor-
ney will take the case to the supreme
court.

A Long Session Possible.

WASHINGTON, May 22.-There is be-
ginning to be a good deal of anxiety about
the time of the final adjournment of the
present session of congress. The senate,
by the action of the finance committee
last week, will save several weeks of the
time that would otherwise be consumed in
reaching n vote upon the subject, but a
month would he a very short time in
which to examine the house bill. If any
bill is examined by the house and sent to
the mate the leading Republican sena-
tors say that they never will vote 20 ad-
iourn until definite action has been taken
on the tariff.

much surprise IN local sporting circles over
the result of the McAuliffe- Glover fight

Frank Glover, who was knocked out a few
months ago by Billy Bradbuln, a good
man. but whose reputation is almost local.
Bradburn fought at about ITS pounds
and he licked Glover in eleven rounds.

College Athletics.

The overseers Of Harvard college have
adopted by a two to one vote resolution
to the effect that " an undue prominence
is now given to athletic contests In the
college, and the excesses and abuses at
tending the same, and mainly incidental
to intercollegiate contests, should be
checked and guarded against for the
future" They therefore restrict the
athletic contests to Cambridge. where
Yale college is situated, or to some other
New England town that may be desig.
mated by the committee on athletics.
This action Of the overseeis will cause a
howl from all those who believe that one
Of the best means OF advertising an
institution Of learning is to nurture
therein q champion base ball or boat
club. But the course is undoubtedly
right. Athletics are not the primary
reasons for attending college. They are
a mere incident which deserve encourage.
ment, but which should never be per.
mitted to entirely usurp the place Of the
class room. Hereafter Harvard athle.
tes will have q chance to display their
powers throughout New England, and
this is big enough grazing ground for
those with whom athletics ought to be a
secondary consideration.
