Harvard has taken the initiative in .
reform which has been under discussion in
university circles for number Of years.
That venerable institution has determined
on reduction to three years Of the univer-
sity course, which heretofore has been
spread ont over . period OF four years.
This has created no little excitement
among its less progressive rivals. They
are indignant at this bold violation Of
presidents which have been respected ! and
observed for two hundred years.
But the change has been based on rea-
sons which commend themselves 10 the
practical minded citizen, and II il pretty
certain that. sooner or later. public opinion
viii compel the other colleges to follow
Harvard's example. The change has been
justified on the ground that the old four
year course has delayed Young men quito
unnecessarily and for too long time from
entering upon the active duties Of life in
profession, trade or in business. 1t 10
argued--and public opinion will certainly
sustain this contention--that games. soci.
cites and rowdyism have become q too
prominent feature Of an average university
course, and that the time worse than
wasted in this connection has been more
hsn an OFFSET for the proposed curta,lment
Of the course.
1t Il not to be doubted that. with excep-
tons too rare to be worthy Of notice,
students can. Il they viii, apply to their
studies within three years quite q much

under the old system in four years. II il

Thus in three years will be acquired all Of
the useful knowledge and educational
equipment that has heretofore consumed
four years, and the habit Of application
will have been acquired and strengthened
largely in excess Of the difference in time.
The improvement in these respects will
be greatly augmented by the necessary
abstontion from those disgraceful exhibi-
tons Of rufiianism which have become too
familiar incidents of university education
OF late, and the graduates viii not only be
fully as we'll equipped in scholarship, and
better Injured to habits Of close application,
but they viii be morally stronger.
Apropos to this question are two Incl
dents Of very recent occurrence. Within
a week or such . matter 800 students of the
Michigan University In ruffianly manner
attempted TO take captive circus which
was exhibiting at Ann Arbor. were resisted
by the showmen. who were armed with
clubs. whereupon the students drew their
pistols and commenced firing, the melee
resulted in ten on each side wounded and
under surgical treatment. About the same
time there was college riot at the Indi-
ana University. clubs and pistols in free
use, one student likely TO die and another

MR.. CLEVELAND'S WEIGHT.
The Ex.President Might Reduce IL by Doing
as H1ilIionaires Do.

The Ex. President Might Reduce it by Doing
rs MilIionnires Do.
Blakely Hall in Brooklyn Eagle.l
The wide discussion aroused by the news
of Mr.. Cleveland's rapidly increasing
weight has turned attention to the general
subject of reducing flesh by means Of the
different systems. There is no e1aggeration
about the ex-President's condition. I have
seen him many times recently, and on every
occasion the increase in fat was noticeable
Some of the ideas expressed by so-called ex-
perts concerning superfuous flesh are rot,
pure and simple. No man who sleeps six
and a half or seven hours, takes cold
bath, eats his breakfast and gets to his
Office by 8 or $50 in the morning will
have to consult physicians about his weight.
Instances of fat millionaires are unknown.
This is because they are obliged to be up
and watching their millions while the fat
men are still lounging in bed.
All of which is a more or less roundabout
way of saying that if Mr.. Cleveland would
get up early, walk to his Office, eat a
light luncheon and walk uptown again he
would soon get rid of the extra weight
Perhaps the most astounding statement
made was that by a well-known physician
of New York, who said. In the course of an
interview, that "eating had nothing to do
with the increase of weight" One might as
well say that fuel has nothing to do with
fire. When they put prisoners on bread
and water diet the falling off in weight is
never less than six pounds in week, and
it has been shown in prison statistics to
largely exceed that amount. Yet bread
and water are both fattening.

A PIANISTS ECCENTRICITIEs,
Hans Won Buelow Doesn't Like Germans
Loves q Change of Ties.

Hans Won Buei0W DOESN'T Like Cerman1
Loves Change of Ties.
Hans Won Buelow, whose name has lately
been made familiar to Pittsburgers by the
newspapers and bills in the windows, al
though German himself, detests Germans.
The St. Louis Rep ublic says: Prof. Kun
kel, of st. Louis, called on Won Buelow
when he was here some IA odd years ago and
explained what he had done to make the
engagement here a success. Mr.. Buelow
thanked him cordially and chatted af1ably
for while until he turned upon Kunkel
and asked: "By the way, are you Ger
MANI"
Certainly" answered Kunkel.
"Then I don't want to have anything
further to do with you," and walked off
leaving the st. Louisan dumb with amaze
ment.
1t is related that while professor of lead
ing European Conservatory Won Buelow
used to wear different colored tie every
day of the week, much to the amusement OF
the scholars. He always wore the same
color on the same day of the week, too, and
never made a mistake. Mrs. Won Buelow,
the pianisPs mother, is reported to have ex-
pressed her wonder how anyone could get
along with her Hans. She never could.

son. No stylish effect can be produced until
the hat or bonnet has been fitted to the head
of the lady for whom it is intended, hence
having the head measured is in vogue at
the present time, and we are no longer con-
fronted with the ungainly and ill-ftting
shapes seen in seasons past
THE first to attract our notice are the new
colors. Nuances adoptees par la chambre
syndicate of Paris are but few in number,
but these are very beautiful. Monsereau is
pleasing shade but very little darker than
vieux rose. Admiral, gendarme, saphir,
paon, chasseur and myrtle are various
shades of blue, ranging from a marine to a
navy. The Endorsement that yellow has re-
ceived will make it very popular, and the
entire scale from q deep orange to the
chamois and blanc mat will find favor with
those seeking the color that is conceded by
all artists to be the
MOST FLATTERING TO THE COMPLEXION.
Gluten, mais, paille, ebenier, ble-d'or
Toreador and boulon-d'or are the
yeliOws just introduced and so sub
dued are they in tone as to produce an
effect quite beautiful when combined with
black, light blue, the browns or the greens.
The browns will be used for early spring
and the new shades are argus, gItana, Ia
bac, marron and loutre. The grays are 10
be revived and they are gladly welcomed
back, for they will be worn by the miss as
well as the madame. Argentine, monette
and goura are the gray shades. whose sill
very sheen blends beautifully with the gray
or brown hair. Gold and silver braids COM
bine with these grays and the effect is very
much heightened by their metallic luster
The greens will hold their own, but will
divide the honors with the light blues and
lavenders. The names of the greens are
nil, yucca, msgnolis, charmitle and
emerande. Light blue, in spite of the ad-
verse criticism of dtess reformers, will be
great fayorite, for the combination of light
blue and black, green or yellow, is sane
toned by nature and can be used with per-
feet propriety. The new shades OF light blue
are myosotis and matelot, between a ciel
and marine.
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1890-04-27

gold braid facing will be popular. 1t has a
large bow in the front of brown ribbon,
and a large bunch of yellow and
golden brown chrysanthemums and foliage.
Velvet ribbons will be continued in use,
but they will not exceed an inch in width.
Satin ribbons with welted edges, gros grain
fish edged. gauze and plaid sarcenet rib
bons, are shown as novelties of their kind.
There is no doubt that this will be the
greatest flower season known, and some of
the artificial flowers even fatter nature in
their delicacy of structure and perfection of
coloring, and are exceedingly charming.

tire company. They clustered around her,
embracing her and giggling in the fashion
of very young women when they are en-
deavoring to present humorous picture OF
mock devotion.
"Oh, do adore you, Sylvia" cried an
ardent blonde, attempting to wind her arms
about the neck of the little girl with the
teapot.
THE PRECIOUS TEA.
"But be careful, Marie" answered the
other. "Don't you see you are spilling the
tea?"
At this there was burst of laughter,
followed by more remarks of slight meaning
but much insinuation. Presently an eager
eyed young lady came running up with a
tray full of tiny teacups.
"Here they are, girls" she cried, deposit
ing the tray on table.
A young man started up and asked If they
were not going to wait for the hot tea. He
was told that everyone was to take a cold
cup first Then he went away and the girls
drank silently and happily, their eyes
cleaning over the rims of their cups and
their free hands seeming to twist with de-
light. The day was warm, and in addition to
the odor of violets that stole my way, de-
tected the unmistakable fragrance of the in
vigorating rye when little sugar and the
oil of lemon peel are added. These were
cocktail girls.
1t is the unexpected that happens in
staid as we'll as frivolous matters. 1t was
thought several years ago that the churches
had reached the end in secular music in
their choirs. But no. Next season the in
tenton is to make so me OF the choirs more
than ever the attractive feature in the fash
ionable churches Entire operatic passages
will be given in the choirs, choice being
made Of the heroic, lyric and pastoral. Fer
instance, the duo between Raoul and Valen-
tine from the "Hugu enots," the solo from
"Orpheus." the hymn to the evening star
from "Tanhauser," the death scene from
Lucia" and the episode between John of
Leyden and his mother from the ''Prophet."

EIGHTEEN STYLES OF APRONS.
Paris Wears Them All and the Butchers
Boy il an Example.
Wide Awake.


Boy is an Example.
Wide Awake.i
Would you believe. for instance, that
Paris wears IS different styles of aprons,
and never by any chance mixes these aprons
up? From the dImmest era now lost in
obscurity, the Paris butcher-boy has worn q
uniform betokening the trade OF which he is
invariably q cheerful ornament. The apron
he wears is most curious affair, and he
himself must be regarded as the aristocrat
of the apron-wearers, for he sports no less
than three aprons at once.
Two of these are apparently supeffluous,
as they are rolled up, and fastened at each
side; the third is worn in front and held in
place across the breast by string made into
peculiar knot at the back. Whenever
you see this odd knot you may be assured a
butchers apprentice has tied it Its tying
is profound secret.
