A "BEsT GIRL" TRUST.
Wolverine Collegians Inaugurate
a New.fangled Monopoly.

ADRIAN, Mich. Jan. 15.-Among the
features of Adrian college which are
not set forth in the annual catalogue is
'.best girl trnst'. The young men
are sworn to secrecy and to abide by
the rules of the trust, the object being
the monopoly of the best girls in the
college. The organization began by
selecting as many girls as there were
members of the trust, who were divided
by lot, the provision being that each
man should entirely monopolize the lady
assigned to him for one month, and to
allow no other man to escort her foot
on pain of heavy fine and imprison-
ment in coal shed until released by,
the faculty. At the end of the month
each member must trade girls with
some other member, if called upon to do
so. The trust has been in operation
for some time, and is said to be flourish
ing
