WILLAMETTE NOTES.

Rev. S. L. Lee led at chapel Tues
day. Odd Tiel, former student,
was present Friday.
DIR. Whitaker went to Corvallis to
lecture before the Teachers Institute,
now in session there.
DIR. Towers lecture has been in
definitely postponed, on account OF
illness in his family.
The orations of the week were ex-
cellent, Miss Edith Field spoke on
"Unseen Influences" aud Miss
Edith Gwynne, on the "Rainbow."
The subject for the $40 prize essay,
is the industrial and Educational
Resources of Oregon" From the
interest manifested many good es-
says are expected.
John Whitaker, our amateur pho
tographer, took the young ladies'
societies in one group, and the
young mems societies in another,
for keepsakes of this year.
When a school maintains its gov
ernment by the good will and con-
sent of it's students, it governs
rightly. But when compulsory
measures must be introduced il
stands on a war footing and wrong
exists somewhere.
The PhilodoIians discussed the
subject of the government Of the
United States VS.. the government
of Great Britain. When we com
pare the political purity of the
parties of these governments, the
discussion becomes interesting in
the extreme.
The college Y. M. G. A. have be-
gun the study of the Bible by tax
ing up the life of Christ, in the or
der followed by DIR. Simon Green
leaf, judge of the U. t. supreme
court. The plan is to study the life
of Christ, in order first to master il
as biography, second, to get az
uuainted with HIM as a friend.

SEPARATED BY THE FLOOD
A Romance of the Great Johns
town Disaster.

LOUISVILLE, March 19.-Among
the residents of Johnstown, Pa, at
the time of the flood disaster were
James Agnew, his wife and three
children. On the day of the flood
Agnew was at work In the Cambria
iron mills, while his family was at
home two miles down the valley.
The flood came, many in the mills
were drowned, and the house of
Agnew was destroyed and his
family scattered. The husband and
wife made an unsuccessful search
for each other, and finally gave the
other up for dead. Mrs. Agnew was
sinking in despair when there came
letter from this city. 1t was from
her brother John Pritchard, ma
chinist at the Louisville a. Nashville
railroad shops. He bade his sister
come to him, and her mother sent
her the means to come. Here she
lived quietly, grieving for her lost
husband. A few days ago letter
reached the Pritchard house and ii
bore the stamp of Allentown, Pa,
and it told Mrs. Agnew that hel
husband was alive. When the
food swept over the iron works he
was carried away in the wreck
Down the river he floated until he
lost consciousness for a time. When
he revived rescuers were lifting him
from a tangle of wreckage and dead
bodies. He lay in Red Cross soci'
ETY. tent for many days, s,unconscious
shattered in mind and body. When
he recovered he could find no trace
OF his family. Finally, through the
inquiries of priest, it was learned
that the Pritchards lived i'm Louis.

will base their argument on the
theory that the United States su

MODESTO, Cal, March 19.-The
house of Mrs. Lawrence, the
divorced wife of Joseph Lawrence,
was mysteriously burned at mid
night. The woman barely escaped
with her babe alive. Hor hair was
singed by the blaze. She says her
divorced husband had several times
lately advised her 10 insure the house;
that he wanted to stay all night last
night, and when she refused he
struck at her with spade. She
believes that some one set fire to the
house, because there had been no
fire for hours before.
