in many of the colleges, in its class prayer
meetings that are held every Friday after

of Scripture studied at that time.
President Harpkr makes a special study
of certain portions Of the Bible at different
months, and in that way has offered to
answer any question coming from college
students or Y NJ {. \. organizations
wherever they may be.
He has set apart a portion of his time
for just this kind of work, and a number
of students of the various colleges are
taking advantage of the opportunity af-
forded
Since our article upon the Brown Uni

attendance of all members at rehersals
cannot be TO strenously demanded, Since
it is i'm just such rigid rules in these things
that have made Harvard and Yale what
they are in every way, and Brown cannot
afford TO be second TO any.

KISSED THE FLAG.
Lucy Parsons Shouted, Hang the
Murderers of My Husband"

CHICAGO, Nov f2.-The Stars and
Stripes waved aloft last night amid a
scene of excitement unequalled since the
Haymarket riot. Over thousand
Anarchists and sympathizers had crowded
into the West Twelfth street Turn hall to
commemorate the day, Nov. IL, 1887, on
which their fellow Anarchists were hung
The speeches were extreme and red
emblems covered everything Inspector
Of Police Hubbard, accompanied by
Lieut.. Gibbons and a squad Of
officers approached the stage and
ordered an American flag placed among
the flaming crimson banners which were
conspicuous everywhere.
Instantly there was a profound sensa-
tion in the motley audience, and Kisses
from all parts of the hall.
Mrs Lucy Parsons, who was present,
shrieked out, Hang the murderers of my
husband" In second pandemonium
reigned; hundreds of excited men push
ing forward, cursing the officers and
seemingly only wanting n nod or look
from a leader to precipitate fearful
spectacle of carnage. The flag, mean
while, had been hoisted to a place over the
stage, proceeding only accomplished
when the officers were found ready for ac-
tion and cooler heads among the excited
audience had time to exercise some in
tiuence.

200 FAMILIES HOMELESS.
A Great Fire iu the East of
London.

LONDON, Nov. 1.-Two hundred fami-
lies were rendered homeless this morning
by tenement house fire in the east of
London.
The poor people did their utmost to save
their goods and chattels from the flames,
and in doing so swarmed out of the rickety
old buildings like rats from sinking
ship, carrying with them the most valu-
able of their possessions.
The old people, children and the sick
who had escaped into the streets natural
ly suffered considerably from exposure,
so much so that one poor woman who had
recently given birth to an infant which
she elapsed desperately TO her breast, died
in the street in spite of the assistance rem
dered her by other women.

BOLD TRAIN ROBBERY.

IL Is Thought the Booty May Amount to
Hundreds of Thousands of Dollars
What Messenger Murphy Has to Say.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Nov. 12.-The mid
night train from Chicago. on the Milwau-
kee and ST. Panl railroad, was robbed at
Western Union junction at o'clock this
morning
The robbers are supposed TO have board
ed the train at the junction and as soon as
IL was well away from the station on the
open prairie they compelled the engineer
with drawn revolvers TO stop the train,
and when this was done they burst open
the door of the express car with dyna-
mite bomb, and after overpowering the ex-
press messenger. removed the safes from
the car and opened them.
They also procured 5000 in packages
outside the safe. 1t is probable that the
total amount of booty will amount 10
hundreds of thousands of dollars, as the
train which was held up was the one when
generally carries all the money received
by Milwaukee banks from the East in the
morning.
LESS than five minutes out of Western
Union Junction." said Messenger Muir
ply, 1.-The train slowed up suddenly. "A
musket was poked through top window
of that car, and "A second later a terrific
explosion occurred that knocked both Mr..
Cook and myself in heap. .,
Half dozen more explosions followed
and both doors flew off the bolts. Then
two men wearing black masks climbed
quickly into the car end covered us with
their double-barrelled revolver
We were cautioned TO maintain silence
on the penalty of getting our heads blown
off.
They brought the fireman in little
later on and went through all the boxes
and then compelled us TO hand over the
keys. They dumped the box out on the
road bed. One of the robbers kept us
covered with his musket all the time
while the others superintended the opera
tions of the fireman.
