Women Professors.

What is there so incongruous in a
woman professor in universities, where
men are educated with women? This is
the question Mrs. N. Louise Thomas and
others are asking, who are trying to
raise funds to endow a woman's chair in
northern university. Why is it that a
woman teacher is deemed so necessary
/. through all the grades, from the primary
to those of the graduating class of the
high school, and yet she should be
deemed SO pernicious and disastrous in
colleges? Whether these are good rea-
sons or not, the experiment is to be
given fair trial, for very recently the
bill providing for woman professor
ship at the State University of Michigan
has become law.
Not far behind comes the news also
that the University of Denver, which
numbers about 800 students, has con-
ferred on a woman the honor of naming
an important professorship after her
that of hterature-to be known here
after as the Mary Lowe Dickinson chair
of bellies letter, which chair has just re-
ceived as an endowment from ex-Gov-
ernor John Evans the sum of $4,000

WILD BEASTS HIS FRIENDS.
The Queer Stories Told About Pioneer
Washington Rancher.

Washington Rancher.
Among the visitors TO Seattle the past
week was Peter Gallagher, rancher liv
/! ing three miles from Renton. Mr.. Gala
CHER is one of the pioneers Of the sound
country, and has lived On the same place
for twenty years or more, taking up a
quarter section as homestead from the
government. By years of hard toll he
has cleared up and improved splendid
place, which, though secluded from the
outside world, is a model ranch, of which
the owner is justly proud.
Mr.. Gallagher is not given to hunting
and does not modest wild game Of any
kind, and to this may be ascribed the
tameness Of number of animals which
make the woods in that vicinity home.
One of these, black bear, has for year
visited his stockyard almost daily and
eaten with the cattle, lying down among
the calves and displaying neither fear nor
ferocity.
Mr.. Gallagher goes among the stock
and frequently passes within two or
three feet of his bearship, not only in the
yard but in the woods. He pays 10 at
tention to the bear and the latter never
offers to modest him-on the contrary,
eats with evident satisfaction pieces Of
bacon and other scraps from the table
that are thrown out to him. The bear
is handsome 300 pound fellow and ap-
pears to enjoy the company Of the cattle.
Other pets are a pair Of fawns that
run around with the young stock on the
place, eating with the calves and lying
down among them as contented as
though with their own kind. They evil
IDENTIFY come from the vicinity of Cedar
lake, where considerable hunting is done
and from which section game is being
driven Mr.. Gallagher says he had
rather part with the best COW on his place
than one of the fawns.
This is the second time fawns have
taken up their abode at this place, the
first pair coming there about five years
ago and remaining with his stock for
two years, even going into the stables
and being locked up over night. He
gave them to neighbor, who in turn
presented them to friends at Snohcmish
and up the Skagit.
This sounds fishy, but not only is it
vouched for, but it is further said that
wild ducks and geese alight in his yard
and show no fear in his presence,
though the appearance Of a stranger is
the signal for flight Mr. Gallagher
never hunts and will not allow hunting
on his place nor interference in any way
with his pets, either quadrupeds or
winged.-Seattle (Wash.) Press-Times.
