inrly began looking around for something a ntVe
heavier. and was wholly successful, as we READ III
the dispatch that Riley was seen walking down
Safest this afternoon with rife over his shouL
der. The sophomores now recognize the fact
that Riley does not want his hair cut. There may
he food for thought in this for men who are shaved
in barber shops. BY adopting Riley's idea the
barber who always wants to trim it up little
in the back, might be held in check But this
is not to the point. AT present the trouble at the
University of Wisconsin stands like this: The
no1ice have the matter in hand some explosions
nv the faculty are looked for, and Undergraduate
Rilcv is walking about the streets with long
rifle over his shoulder looking for sophomores'
His hair is a little Jagged around the edges where
the sheet-iron shears began their work, but there
is a determined look in his eyes, Perhaps Riley
poes armed better than he knows. He may be
doing more to discourage the reprehensbe practice
Of bazing at the University of Wisconsin than the
faculty could possibly do. So long as he sticks to
the rife it is safe enough to say that he will not
be haZed.
Other institutions of learning which are trying

able lesson by watching Riley STILL an entire
freshman class armed with rifles would have
decidedly odd appearance, to say the least. The
country awaits the final result of the Riley tactics

TIE MARINE CONFIDENCE.

The Marine Conference opening in Wash
ington to-day is an international council that
will lead to important results without exciting
jealouses or Discussions. Twenty-six Powers
are to be represented in the sessions; but so
practical is the work in which the delegates
will be engaged that harmonious action may
be confidently anticipated. The Conference
meets to frame a new code of rules for the sea.
Its functions are strictly advisory, since no
delegation has authority to commit the Gov
eminent represented by it to any form Of
maritime policy; but the changes in existing
rules of navigation which so large and innu-
entail body of experts may be able to agree
upon will undoubtedly be sanctioned by all
the maritime States.
The only limits imposed upon the usefulness
Of such a conference are the restrictions upon
the progress of modern science in certain di-
lections. The chief aim of the delegates is TO
lessen the dangers of ocean travel in foggy
weather. The present system Of lights and
signals can be improved so as to impart pos
tive information respecting the direction and
courses of vessels but the most powerful lights
yet invented can only illuminate a narrow
circle of foggy atmosphere and the best steam
whistles and fog bells can only be heard n
limited distance. The advance made in in
creasing the speed of ocean steamships has not
been accompanied by corresponding progress
in the development of precautions for insurng
safety at sea- The present system of lights and
signals is clearly inadequate for the new con-
dtions imposed by steamers of high speed ;
but while its usefulness may be greatly in
creased, modern science will still be heavily in
default in providing apparatus by which col
lisions may be averted in thick weather That
the Conference will make an approach to the
limit Of safety in navigation is reasonably GER
tain; but it cannot anticipate the progress of
invention, and must leave various problems Of
ocean navigation unsolved. High speed, by
diminishing the interval during which lights
may be seen or signals heard involves the
necessity for imparting complete information at
ohort notice The lights must be mnltinlied

that Riley was far from home and frends- and
