From the regular Monday list of the

Two newsdealers have been added to the
list. They want forty papers to begin
with and will soon take more.
Three country orders increased. One
wants fifty more papers, one thirty more,
one ten more.
City orders increased: A retail dealer
in the business section wants fifty more.
A retail dealer in residence section in
creases from i25 TO 1876. Half dozen lit
tie increases from two TO ten each; but
every little helps. A big wholesale dealer
increases.
New subscribers for the NEWS TO be sent
by mail. New "clubs" formed in smaller
and more remove places. Little gains
each one. but a creditable number of them.
Mail list rapidly lengthening.
We don't claim COG, ,9l3 copies like one of

facts show that we're doing fairly well
for new paper.

These tests were to have been made by the

material by its tendency to absorb water
and swell is quite effective in preventing
the flow of water into the interior of the
ship.
Two shots will be fired at each tank
from high power gun, an explosive shell
being used in one instance in order TO test
the material under the most extreme con-
ditions. The sides of the tanks are about
four feet thick, composed OF one foot OF
wood and three feet OF cellulOSe.
After the tanks have been punctured
and the effect OF the explosive shell on the

will be built around the tanks and filled

THE "REPORTER'S" CHALLENGE.
It Asks Mr.. WardwelI to Prove His
Statements.

The Woonsotket Reporter OF this even
ing will print challenge to ex-Lieut.
Gov. Wardwell, which that gentleman
will hardly find it possible to ignore. 1t
says that its statement that Wardwell
had repeatedly paid as low as 75 cents
day for wages to adult employees was only
printed upon the report OF careful man
who was sent specially TO Bristol to make
inquiries, and he in turn based his finding
upon competent testimony. The sources
OF the RcportcT's Information cannot be
published, for reasons which working
men will very we'll understand. but
the Reporter offers To submit its
testimony to the President OF the Rhode
Island Central Labor Union, in confidence
that the names of It's witnesses shall not
be divulged, and abide by his decision,
whether or not the statement Was well
founded.
Here is an offer made i'm good faith by a
reputable and reliable newspaper. whose
fairness cannot he denied by any one. Mr..
Wardwell cannot afford Co ignore it. He
cannot evade it. 1t places him at once
upon the defensive, aud If he does not ac-
cept the challenge the workingmen of
Rhode Island will be justified in forming
their own references as TO the reason why.
The Reporter also adds this comment
on the Washington trip:

generally known, the State deposits it's

Trust Company, on which it receives in

"The receipt of so large n stock as the
then lieutenant governor went TO the
national capital for was anticipated, and
arrangements made for its deposit on the
day when Mr. Wardwell and his girl body

Trust Company officials, but day after

YALE'SNEW DEPARTURE
1t Opens Its Post Graduate Courses
to Women.
AND OFFERS ITS DEGREE.
First Of the Great American Colleges tn
Give without Reserve the Opportuni-
ties for Advanced study Heretofore
Sought Abroad-An Important Move.

New HAVEN, Conn, March 1.-The
faculty OF Yale University to-day an
nounced that. beginning with the next
academical year, women will be admitted
to the post graduate courses OF the uni
versity and will receive the degrees of
doctor of philosophy. The idea has been
agitated for a long time by the faculty.
The case ofa Norwich young woman, who
passed the entrance examination to Yale
year ago. bat who could not be admitted
as student, stirred up a national inter
est in the idea of co-cducation at Yale.
The announcement made by the faculty
to-day Is as follows: 'In accordance
with the report of q special committee
appointed last year for this purpose, the
faculty OF Yale University has inau9
urated plan for greatly extending post
graduate and more strictly university
work. This plan has also been sanctioned
by the university corporation, the two
features which possess most interest for
the general public, and which will be put
into active operation next fall are the
following:
Two scholarships of 500 each. or enough
to pay tuition; and five fellowships of 800
each. have been created from the income
of University funds. These scholarships
and fellowships are open TO graduates OF
all colleges
The other feature Is believed to be one
OF the most important movements as yet
made in this country for the higher educa-
tion of women. In and after the next aca-
demical year. the post graduate courses
with the degree of Doctor Of philosophy
will be open without distinction of sex. 1t
is not the design to re-establish an annex
or other rival of the colleges already ex-
listing for women, but to receive the grad
yates of these colleges and give them as
good opportunity for the most advanced
research aud education as can be
found in Europe. The probable influence
Of this movement, in which Yale is thus
the first OF the great universities OF this
country to take part, upon the prepara-
tion of women for the work of teaching is
obvious.
Other plans for increasing greatly the
number OF scholarship and fellowships
open TO all graduates. for strengthening
Yale's already strong hold upon the small
er Western colleges and for increasing
its means for the higher professional
education of teachers are in preparation
1t is understood that n phamphlet an
nouncing details aud giving full list of
courses TO be opened next year may be
expected In April.

Calmly Took His Own Life.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 14.-The Van
Zandt suicide has caused much talk here
by the publication Of . mass of facts from
intimate personal friends Of the dead
Montana mining man, showing that his
death was due directly TO financial
trouble, and that neither the grip nor
any other bodily ailment had anything to
do with his suicide. The facts are that
Van Zandt was crowded to the wall, and
that when he failed to get assistance from
his English relatives he calmly took his
own life.
