The Mimic War Over tho Opera at and
End. Notes About the Campus.
The operatic war on the hill has at last
come to a peaceful close. A meeting OF
the rival composers and others was held
last evening, and a combination was
formed which should result in as fine
an opera as the college has ever produced.
III. A. Dyer, '9i, was elected president Of
the organization, and Mcssrs. Colvin,
Blake, Corliss, Sackett and Realing We're
elected as an executive committee.
This committee will produce the opera and
libretto, the music being in charge OF Cor
liss and Heating and Messrs. Dyer, Blake,
Colvin, Thomas and Sackett will compose
the librctto. This revival of the old "Ham-
mer and Tong" society means that the
work TO be done will exceed anything yet
done by any Brown dramatic club.

Consul Courtney Hixson at Foochow,
China, observing the decrease of con-
sumption through the Amicll treatment
is supplying the American colony as
well as the Chinese with the free med
icines obtained from the generous Gin
cinnati discoverer. No governmental
action will be taken towards isolating
consumptives until the regular session.
The sanitary authorities of Chicago
aroused by recent editorials on the
Amicii cure and the righteousness of
the disease are debating how best to
isolate consumptives. The Post says:
Consumption is placed by Michigan
in the same category as smallpox and
it will be similarly quarantined. Let
Illinois fall in line at once"
The proposed state legislation in Col
orado isoiating both resident consump-
tives and those going there has led to
the incorporation of institutions for
their care. The Denver Sanitarium
company opened theirs last week to
the patients of all physicians and COM
bines isolation with the Amick treat
ment W hich each consumptive is given
opportunity of testing with medicines
furnished these physicians by the Gin
cinnati doctor without cost. The Bos-
ton company for the colonization in
Colorado of isolated consumptives has
applied to the state land commissioner
for two sections of land which will
give out of door occupation.

also understood that the United States

The latest sensation in the bank
troubles of lansing is the arrest of
Cashier Nelson Bradley, Of the Central
Michigan Savings bank. He is charged
with making false report of the con-
ditiou OF the bank, the maximum PEN
atty for which offense is 20 years in
states prison. When the bank was
closed in April last State Bank Com
missioner Sherwood asked for u special
report. This was soon prepared. 1t
told a rather tlattering story of the
banks affairs, and Mr.. Sherwood felt
it his ty TO investigate. lie found
that tho amount of rediscounted paper,
which Bradley fixed at S33, S5730,
should have been $4,000 OverdraftS
were reported at $40, 009.4S, instead of
SSl, 240. Is, as they should have been.
Receiver Stone makes still more
damaging charges. If what he says is
true, Bradley has been guilty of even
q worse offense. Mr.. Stone charges
that during the past nine years he has
misapplied something like $4,000 to
his own use and benefit. The alleged
moduS operandi was to credit the inter
est and exchange account of the bank
to his own account and make inves-
ments IN his own name. Since the
bank has closed he has made good
enough of this TO reduce the shortage
to $42, 900.
Nelson Bradley has been resident
of Lansing for nearly 20 years. He be-
came cashier ID years ago. He entered
that city almost without a cent, and is
now rated at something like $500, 900.
He was most assiduous in attending to
his duty, being at the bank early and
late, and every body had the utmost
confidence in him.
