STOLE THE OTHER FELLOWS SUPPER
students I'm Minnesota University En-
gage in Desperate Flight.

The faculty OF the quaint old religious
university located at Hamllne. this county,
says ~. Paul dispatch, are Just now inyes-
ugating terrific row which took place late
saturday night the facts having been con-
ceaied until this afternoon. Though the uni
versity Is designed exclusively for the edu-
cation OF young ministers, class feeling runs
high, and the "preps,' or newcomers. have
universally been heavy sufferers ut the hands
OF elder students. The Juniors and fresh
men had a party on Saturday, and invited
some OF the village girls. The affair was 20
wind up with supper, and during the lit
erary aud social exercises the edibles were
stored m the basement. The "prcps" learn
ed OF the storage, aud, forcing the door, car
ried of every delicacy 10 the laboratory,
where they fcasted at leisure. The Juniors
and their friends discovered the loss. and
traced the ''preps" to the laboratory, where
pitched battle ensued. IL was amusing at
hrsi, but grew serious rapidly, and finally.
when the doors were carried with rush,
chairs, pieces OF railing and plates were used
rs weapons. Al last rcvolyers were drawn,
and the garrison was driven out. William
Reeves, n n0n-combatant was mistaken fora
prep" and thrown over the stairway, break
ing lex In two places and receiving serious
internal injuries. The eye OF student
named Webb was nearly gouged out while
scalp wounds. broken noses and black eyes
were freely displayed. This morning the
Mortified faculty began an investigation after
taking every precaution 10 prevent the
story from getting out. The students impli-
Gated belong 10 some OF the best Methodist
families in the state, and the fact that cxpul-
sion will be the lightest penalty adds TO the
interest in the case.

HzING AT THE KALAMAZOO COLLEGE.
Two Professors Bound Hand and Foot aud
Dumped In "a Corn Field.

The Kalamazoo College is all torn up with
a sensation that may cause a large body Of
students trouble. saturday night about
twenty students enticed Profs. Ferry and
Trowbridge 10 the rooms OF senior named
Des Antcls and there bound them hand and
foot They then carried the professors two
miles In the country and left them in corn
field. The night was cold and a raw wind
was blowing. One OF the teachers finally
succeeded IN getting at his pocketknife aud
cut the cords that held them.
When they related their experience n. the
faculty meeting next morning there was
CONSERVATION among the professor, that such
an indignty should have been offered two
OF their number. The Sheriff was consult
ed later concerning arrests. The official
went TO the college TO investigate, but could
get no evidence. In the evening the stu
dents agreed to confess II the faculty only
would deal with the. case, aud That Will be
done. A reception heretofore announced at
the college has been postponed and the fac
ulty will wrestlo with the baZers.

BLOCKING TO THE CHEROKEE STRIP
Home-seekers Crowding 20 the boundary
of The Promised Land.

The prospect OF the early delivery OF the
Cherokee strip 10 the hOme-seekers Is at
tracing large numbers OF boomers 10 that
vicinity. The Walnut River, from Arkan-
sas City TO the northern boundary OF the
strip, is lined with boomers. awaiting per-
mission TO cross over. At this place which
Is near the southern boundary, the boomers
are beginning 10 arrive In great numbers,
choosing Tie banks OF the Cottonwood
River as their temporary homestead. The
recent "norther," with its severe cold, has
caused much suffering among the poorly
housed people. Those who are camped
around Guthrie viii have double chance
at free land one chance at the Cherokee
strip and one at the Iowa reservation. The
Iowa Indians recently determined TO take
up land In seyeralty and sell the remainder
OF their reservation 10 the government.
There are only eighty-four members OF the
tribe, aud the majority OF them have already
staked out their claims. When each shall
taken the allotted amount OF land there will
remain 100000 acres OF land quite as fertile
and attractive as any yet opened 10 settle
mcnt In the southwest. 1t is believed that
Congress will declare the Iowa reservation
opened TO settlement at the same time as the
Cherokee strip.

Given an English syndicate.
IL Is reported in New York that an Eng
lish syndicate, representing S2a,0OO,OO0, Is
making an effort to form a school-book trust
in this country, and has thus far been given
the option OF the purchase OF six OF the
largest school-book publishing houses in
America. The firms which offer 10 dispose
OF their establishments are said TO bc lyisOn,
Brakeman X Co, -. Appleton Il Co., A. ;.
Barnes a CO., Van Antwerp, Bragg X Co.,
and two other firms, which are believed
10 be Cowperthwaite 4 Co., Of Philadelphia.
and fainter Bros. & Co, OF New YORK.
These firms are said 20 have put the selling
price OF their plants at FROM 10 To 30 per cent
above their value ut the present rate OF profit
and expenses. II is expected that prices can
be increased and expenses greatly decreased
should one syndicate control the entire mar
ket. The English capitalists hesitate about
closing the bargain, because Harper Bros.
can not be bought out, aud also because edu-
Gators all over the country look with dismay
upon the possibility OF one concern control
