PROFESSOR PATToN, the newly
elected President of Princeton Col
leee, in his inaugural address on
Wednesday indicated that the insti1
tuition would still be conducted on
the lines laid down bY his predeces-
sor, among them being an attention
to the physical needs Of the stud
ents. A committee Of the Faculty
Of Harvard College has just made .
report on the subject of college
athletics which suggests that great
er opportunities should be given by
that institution for exercise. The
report takes the ground that ath-
letic sports do not seriously inter-
fere with attendance on college
courses, aud do nov lower the
standing either Of those who take
part in them or Of the institution
which encourages them. All this
GOES to show that the opinions Of
educated men IN regard to college
athletics are undergoing . notabls
change. PHILADELPHIA Record. /

The CHICAGO CONVENTION. =
The third day of the Republican
National Convention At Chicago has
passed and without a choice of can
dldates. In the meantime the CAP
IrAL has kept its readers posted
from day to day from the special
bulletins received at this Office as to
the sentiment of the convention, as
it progressed, 1t has been week
of great endurance to the delegates
as we'll as one of great mental anx-
iety to the candidates and their
friends. The withdrawal of Mr..
Depew as a candidate, by releasing
the solid vote of the New York del
egation, will force new combinations
and new distributions of voting
strength when the convention meets
this morning. 1t Is quite certain
that the end will be reached to-day
and both candidates put before the
people on their respective merits.
1t has not been the custom with
New York delegations to divide,
and the solid vote of that State,
when given to candidate, is of it
self an advantage difficult to over
come in the later stages of the
balloting Much will therefore de-
pend to-day upon the course that
shall be determined on by the New
York delegates.

is completely demolished. The cloud of escap-

the explosion. Fortunately, many of the en-
poyes were at dinner. Matthew Mortimer a

BUCHANAN'S SWEETHEART.
The Woman He Was Not Permitted to Marry
Dies i'm the West.

LAKE CRY, Mimi, Jan. 9.-Mrs. Letitia
Boyee died last night at her residence in Sugar
Loaf valley, Florence township, aged ninety
nine years. Deceased whose maiden name was
Duncan, did not marry until she was eighty -four
years old, and her husband, worthless, dissi-
pated fellow. much younger shan she got all
her property in his possession and deserted her
shortly after their union. For a number of
years Mrs. Bovee, her sister, Mrs Jane Allen,
and q erin-law, Mrs. Stewart, lived together
with no male protector. Mrs. Allen, who was
the widow of soldier of the war Of 1872, died
last year, aged eighty-six years, and the two
survivors kept up the domestic establishment,
assisted somewhat by the neghbors.
Mrs. Allen told a mum ber of her acQuantances,
and her statements were confirmed by Mrs.
Bovee. that the latter, who was once noted for
beauty. was betrothed in her youth to young
man living near her Pennsylvania home. whom
her parents forbade her to marry. they favoring
ward President of the United States. Not being
the man of her choice. she concluded to live
single, and it not until she had reached her
second childhood that she was inveiged into the
unfortunate marriage elsewhere noted. She
settled N this section, with her sister, Mrs.
Allen, about thirty-fve years ago, and has
always been highly respected by her neighbors.
The statement by her sister that Mrs. Bovee
was the beloved of Mr.. Buchanan was not made
for notorety and it is to be inferred that he re-
manned bachelor because Of his affection for
her.

A TECHNICAL IRREGULARITY.
Foundation on Which Certain Rumors Con-
cerning National Bank We're Circulated.

Speca1 to the INDIANAPOLIS Journa1.
NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-The Commercial Adver-
tiser to-day says: Certain rumors have been
circulated recently with respect to the affairs of
the Fourth National Bank We have investi-
gated them, and here present an accurate state
ment of the facts. During recent official ex-
animation it was discovered that the reserve of
the bank had been reduced by excessive loans
below the point required by law. This practice
is not infrequent in sound banks, and is often
justified by necessity. But the law requires that
accurate reports of loans and reserves
be made Unfortunately, in in
stances, this had not been done
bv the responsible officer of the Fourth
National No money was lost by the bank, and
no injury was done to any person interest,
we are assured and believe. and that there was
no fraudulent intent, but simply of zeal on the
part of the official concerned, who. however made
himself party to technical violation of law.
When the matter was discovered, Mr.. o. ID.
Bald win, president OF the bank, himself
sumed sole responsibility for what had been
done and rendered his resignation. The resig-
nation not acted upon, as the annual cleo
tion, which will occur tomorrow. was near at
hand, but 5ir. Baldwin, who was greatly pros
trated by the affair, was relieved from duty and
went away for rest and recovery"

LONDON, Jan. 9-The eternal vigilance which

Gallo imagination to take alarm at very ursub-

disposed to see in some events of recent occur

spondents of the Partisan papers have succeeded
in gathering several items concerning Belgium's
armament and Germany's alleged intrigues at
Brussels. which skillfully connected and artisti-
