Foot Rail in CoIIcge.

Now and then somebody-who is per-
haps nobody in PARTICULARS bold
enough to come to the front asking
whether it IS not possible that foot
ball is absorbing too much attention in
the college life of the day. Players and
their thousands OF admirers answer
back laundering No!
And yet this does not settle the ques-
ton. Most thoughtful persons admit
that the sound body is necessary to the
sound mind, and that reasonable
amount of physical exercise is indis-
pensable to tho student. When We
come to determine how much physical
exercise is necessary and therefore
reasonable we come to the parting OF
the ways.
When lusty young fellow has had
his leg broken or his skull cracked in a
mad rush everybody is ready to admit
that there has been little too much
vigor in the exercise. If the public
could be convinced that too much time
is devoted to play that should be de-
voted to study, there would be an in
tant pressure on college management
to bring the boys back to their books.
College governing bodies may be sup
posed to have their eye on these things
and to be ready to interferewhen they
think the nice balance between neces-
sary work and healthful play has been
disturbed and needs readjusting.
To the ,ooker-on this point seems to
have been nearly reached, but SO long
as the colleges offer in evidence such
splendid specimens of physical man
hood as are graduated from the foot
ball teams. an admiring public will con-
tent itself with looking on and hoping
that all is we'll.

The U. S. Supreme Court Has No Jurhoie-
tiun In District Criminal Cases.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. le.-The
United States supreme court has taken
away one OF the last resources of con-
victs in the District OF Columbia,
namely an appeal to it, these appeals
as rule being taken chiefly to delay
the execution of a sentence. Chief
Justice Fuller rendered the decision in
the case of William D. Cross, convicted
OF wife murder and sentenced to be
hanged. He applied to the court in
general term Of the district for writ
of habeas corpus, and when it was de-
MED took the further appeal which has
been decided. The United States su-
preme court held that under the stat
utes, it had no jurisdiction over Grim
inal appeals from the local court. The
decision will have an important bear
ing on the case of Howard Schneider
convicted OF the murder OF his wife and
sentenced to be hanged after long
trial, which excited more interest in
this city than any court proceeding
since the Guitau case.
