DANGER FROM ELECTRICITY.
Almost Fatal Experience Of a New

York Boy.
A noteworthy and striking instance
Of the ever present danger Of death by
electricity IL furnished In the story Of
Charles Bowden Young, Brooklyn boy
| Of sixteen.
At half past o'clock on Saturday he
loft tho ofice for his home IN Brooklyn.
Hia way TO Fulton Street ferry led him
down Maiden I.auo. Tho rain was pour
Ing heavily at the time, and the city IL al
ways quiet at this hour Of the day. The
boy hurried on at his best pace, and
Maiden Lane and Pearl Street. He was
about to step across the stand and had put
one foot out on tho pavement when some
thing swishcd in tue air. He felt rs he
thought, heavy blow on tho right side of
the head, and dropped like log.
The next thing no knew he was In his
home. How he had got to his homo he
couldn't tell. From the time he was
struck until he came to his senses In his
fathers house his mind was complete
blank. When asked how he WAS hurt,
Charley looked up with dazed expression
ind made an unlntclligible reply. Then,
after an interval, he said: "Whero Is the
policeman" "what policomani" asked
the father. The policeman who brought
me home" said Charley. He was again
asked 70 give an explanation Of his condi-
tlon and replied, confusedly passing his
hand across his brow, II don't know,
something struck mo aud Iffell"
A doctor who examined the boy found
that the wire had struck Charles on the
top of the right ear aud had coiled itself
around his buck, passing under tho left
arm along the chest rs far as the upper
edge Of the right breast. Only under the
urn pit, however, and on the ear was the
flesh burned.

The white students Of the law, medical
and dental departments Of tho university
sent petition to the faculty protesting
against the admission Of any colored
students 70 tho law school. Mr.. Poe says
that some time lust winter petition
against the admission or retention Of col
ored students was laid before the faculty,
signed by nearly all the ninety-nine
students. The matter has been continu-
ously agltated since that time, and this
summer the regents, In whose hunds tho
matter was left for adjudication, have held
several meetings and considered It very
carefully In all bearings.
They have finally resolved that II would
be unwise to eudanRer the school or jeop-
urdixc It's interests In any way by any
longer allowing :olored students TO attend
the school In the face OF such manifest
opposition. A number OF students had left
the school, and others had refused to en-
ter because Of the presence Of tho colorcd
students, aud the school was continually
liable to those Losses so long US that -Atste
OF atfairs existed. Tha, was the ehiof
consideration influencing the action OF the
regents, and in view OF their exceedingly
low record, they did not feel it Incumbent
upon them to force an issue or their nc

be sold for $1,000, and In order to show
good faith In tho matter, Mr.. Stewart was
requested to deposit with tho partieu, rs

to New Martinsyille very quietly after
tho money, and all he could get was
four hundred and fifty dollars. He went
home, where tho men were waiting fol
him, and gave them the money. They
gave him u box In which the money, OF
