~SOphOmores Make the Freshmen's Life
Burden to Them.

New BRUNSWICK, n. j., Dec. 13.-Yes-
terday an attempt was made by the fresh
men of Rutgers college to have their class
pictures taken. When the freshmen ranged
in groups to be taken the sophomores bore
down on them and they scattered and pre-
pared to defend themselves. The freshmen
were soon grouped again, when it was dis
covered that some of the sophomores had
made off with the photographers plates.
Finally the machine" was put in position,
but just as the cap was taken off a shower
of water descended on the freshmen from
the third story of Queens college. Thor
oughly wet, the men rushed upstairs and
clinched with their tormentors, but made
off again when they found that no more
water remained. Other attempts were in
terrupted by showers Of door-mats and
chips until all except one of the plates had
been used. Just as the cap was removed
for this a bushel of corn-cobs was dumped
on the students, and the plate showed
these and the disguised faces of the fresh
men with an amusing distinctness. The
attempt was then given up in despair.

THE ONLY WAY OUT OF 1T.
Mills ofTexas Offers a Suggestion TO Cover
SiIcott's Deficit.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-A number of
democratic representatives clustered
around Mills In the house this morning,
talking over the effect of the Sllcott defal-
cation on the party's chances in the next
election. Mills was chief spokesman, and
he laid down vigorously his opinion that
the democrats could not afford to re-appro-
pirate the lost money! to reimburse them
selves. 1t would lose the party thirty or
forty members in the next house. 1t might
be that the money was lost through no
fault of theirs, and they thought the gov
eminent responsible, but in every close
district the party would find their OPP
ponents on stumps making a loud procla-
nation and crying the democratic ser
geant-at-arms had lost the peoples money
and that the democrats had voted to pay
it back. 1t would lose them several hun
dred votes right along and before the cam
paign was over some of the members
would be vainly seeking to give the
sum appropriated away to the churches
or any body that would have it, as was the
case with the back-pay grab. TIE best
way out of it was for the democratic party
leaders and Leedom to go among their
friends and raise money and turn it over
to the treasury to make good the deficit.
He was willing himself to give his No
vember salary toward the fund, and he
thought that the other democrats would do
the same.
As far as can be learned DO trace has yet
been found of the present whereabouts of
the absconding cashier, Silcott.
