A WOMAN WHO DESERVED THE PRIZE.
Prize Awarded to Student of the Harvard
Annex Before Her Name Was Known.

Boston, March 24-The misfortune Of being
Gently been illustrated at Harvard College. The
Bowdoin prizes are the highest rewards attain
able for English dissertations. and they range
from 300 downward. being accessible to all
students of the university, undergraduates or
graduates. This, of course, excludes students
with the university; but friend of the young
ladies has for two years offered smaller prizes
for dissertations by them, with precisely the
awarded by precisely the same judges Last
year confusion resulted, but this year, by
some accident, the two sets OF dissertations were
sent TO the judges together. with nothing TO
distinguish their sources. Those who were
signed judges for the historical essays-Pro-
to one on 'The Roman Senate under the EN-
pire." which was good that they recommended
IL for the rather unusual award OF the full sum,
$l0O. On opening the sealed letter which ac-
companied it they found the name of e. B. Pear
son, but the class and department of the univers-
ity were not designated, as is required and Prof.
Torrey expressed some surprise that the author
with q provision SO simple. In default of 1t they
looked through all the catalogue of the universi-
ty for the name of E. b. Pearson. and their
not finding it somebody gave the suggestion
that the person might be discovered in the An
mex. On their inquiring there the true fact
came out. The author young lady. So
the essay Of Miss Pearson was necessarily ruled
out of the list. and prize OF $75 was awarded to
N young man instead, while Miss Pearson
dropped at once from the Bowdoin prize of 500
70 the humber Annex prize of $50, thus paying
$40 outright for the privilege of being woman.

THE w HEN
MISS FELLOWS AND HER LOVER.
The Young Lady'S Father COrrects Few of
the Lies Concerning His Daughter.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON. March 5.-The latest advices
from Pierre, D. T., report that the marriage of
Miss Follows, of Washington. to the Sioux In
dian, Chaska, is near at hand; that invitations
have been issued. ETC.; that the father of the
bride and her two brothers present, await
ing the ceremonies, and that if the ceremony
actually takes place the brothers intend shoot
ing Chaska- The author of these romantic
stories appears to be rather reckless about his
facts. as Colonel Fellows is still in Washington,
and when shown the dispatch last night, said:
I'm the first place, am not there, you see.
Secondly, / have son, and con-
sequently Miss Fellows cannot have
two brothers with her, armed to the teeth
prepared to stop the wedding. Again, no white
man is allowed on the reservation, which is
several hundred miles in extent, and, therefore,
no ranchmen cowboys could have been in
vited. Lastly. it Is utterly impossible for any
human being to get news from Swift Birds
camp to Pierre. owing to the condition of the
Missouri river. which is choked with floating
ice.
The last letter received by Mr. Fellows from
his much advertised daughter contained sim
pie recital of her daily life The only time the
name of Chaska has been mentioned by Miss
Fellows is in letter to friend in this city, in
which she men toned him as having been very
kind to her. Members of the Fellows family re-
fuse to believe chat the young lady contsmplates
marriage.

valves In the Portal Vein of Infants.

BOSTON. March 24-Dr. W. S. Bryant, a
Howard Medical school graduate in 1884, now
taking a special course, has made a discovery
in medical science which will necessitate a re-
vision of the books on anatomy aud which has
already caused sensation in medical circles. In
studying anatomy he discovered that in the
portal vein OF the greater number of infants OF
a few weeke old portal valves exist, and so per-
ceptibly that they can be disnerned without the
aid of the microscope. The number of subject
which he has SO far examined leads him to be-
lieve that the valves exist in 20 or so per cent
of children of the age specified He found that
the valves were most abundant in the veins per-
meatinE the large intestines the whole average
number being determined only by the numoer
of branches
When DR.. Bryant came to search for those
valves in the body OF the adult human being he
could find no trace OF them. They had COM
rletely disappered. The medical books say
there is no portal vein in che human body"
The exceedingly interesting question remains
for him TO answer: At what age do these valves
cease to exist in the human body7
