SUBURBAN SOCIAL.
HAMLINE UNIVERSITY.

The winter term closed ON Friday,
and the spring term opens Monday
morning. Such close connections are
almost too much for the "Preps." to
bear, especially those who are spending
their first year away from home at
school. and many of their hearts are
filled with sadness when they contem-
plate the holidays that were not. Their
sentiments have been voiced in the
words: Examination without holt
days is like taxation without represen-
tation," which has appeared in some of
the class rooms, drawn by some home
sick hand.
Many of the young ladies of the hall
are home on visits or are with friends.
Miss Lena Putnam is in Anoka: Misses
Blanche Eames, Winnie Hoyt and Flor
ence Sterling are in Red Wing; Miss
Terrence is visiting, relatives in North
field; Miss Gertie Sherman is i'll Wells;
Miss Poehler, Henderson: Miss Effie
Grant and Wright are visiting former
classmates at the state university; Miss
Mary Bates has returned home to Glen
coe until next fall term.

A MARTYRED DONKEY.

Miss Maud Douty gave donkey party
at her home, 94S Armstrong avenue, last
Tuesday evening to about twenty-five
of her friends. The donkey that fur
nishes occasion for the party has no tail
at the end of his spine in the place
where tail ought to be, and the efforts
of his blindfolded prosecutors to put a
tail there made great fun for them. de-
spite the agony which the poor beast
suffered in silence. The prizes-a toy
donkey and two sticks of candy-were
carried off by a couple Of ladies. When
it is q matter of getting prize donkeys,
it is women who are successful every
time.

WOMEN WHO DO MEMS WORK,
however, are by no means strong
minded in consequence. Lord bless
you, no! I circulated among twenty
five last week and found just one who
asserted her ability to go it
alone and declared her intention of
doing so, regardless of man
and his desire to aid. When asked if
her employers ever, in moments of
anger, forgot that she was woman, she
said she would not allow them to forget
it; and the way she squared up to me
convinced me that she wouldn't. She
is saleslady. When obliged to work
nights she does not permit any of her
fellow-workers to escort her home, nor
at any time nor in any way lend her as
sistance. She is getting a mans pay,
and she proposes to do her work, in
every particular, as a man. She said
she never expected man in crowded
car to give up his seat to her, though
she is so far mindful of her sex that she
thinks he ought to. "Girls, remember

England and Russia.

In the British House of Commons
Tuesday Sir JAMES FURGUSoN, Parlia-
mentary Secretary for the Foreign Office,
announced that no agreement pledging
material action by England had been
entered into with any European Power.
By material action no meant, he said,
military responsibility. That statement,
taken by itself, might seem to imply
that England would be passive OBJ
server Of q continental war. However,
il must be read in the light of another
announcement-that made by Lord
SALISBURY during the debate at the
opening of Parliament. In touch
ing upon the situation in Con-
tinentsl Europe, the Premier said
he would not pretend TO give further
information ethan WAS conveyed in the
recent mastery speech of Prince BIS
MARCH" The Berlin treaty WAS highly
acceptable TO the English Government
at the time it was made and remains so
still. BE then declared that England
had long had policy in the East which
tho Government did not intend to depart
from, and which would be consistently
upheld, and added
They THE English had interested
themselves for four generations in the
fate of Southeastern Europe, and would
not show themselves more indifferent to
those interests than the generations be-
fore them"
The East and Southeastern Europe
are one and the same so far as England
is concerned. They are equally in
volyed in the interminable eastern ques-
ton. Whether Russia makes dash at
the Indian boyder or at the Balkans her
ultimate object is the possession Of Con-
stantinople. Englsnd's policy in the
East and interest in Southeastern
Europe are but other names for OBJ
stacles she throws in the way OF the
Cars grasping that prize. Sir JAMES
FURausos's assurance doubtless means
that England has given no formal ad-
herence 10 the triple alliance. Lord

spells Of weather ever witnessed in tins
section. There has been no heavy fall
of snow, but a great quantity of rain and
several severe hailstorms. At an early
hour this morning hail descended in tor
rents, mixed with rain and snow, and
during one Of the heaviest falls there was
binding flash Of lightning, but no
thunder.
The people of North Danville are very
much exercised and considerably stirred
up over the action Of the Danyille Coun-
ell yesterday, and meeting OF the
Council Of the former town has been
called tor tonight to take some action in
the matter. 1t sclaimed by one OF North
Danville's councilnen that Danville
was a little too previous in her acting,
and that the little town across the Dan
paws all the expenses of prisoners sent
to the Danyille Jail pending a prelimina-

on to court, they become Common
