PORTLAND, April 2l-[Special. IA new
disease lately invaded Portland and at
tackled large number of children in the
city. 1t is in the form of scalp affection
and is receiving most serious and, careful
attention by the principals and teachers of
the city, who are taking every precaution
to guard against its entrance into tho
public schools. The nature of the dis
ease is in the form of . ringworm,
and it breaks out on the scalp. On
those who have been afflicted
with the disease the appearance Of the
scalp somewhat resembles that of the
mango. noticeable in dogs, but the erup-
tions are not So large nor loathsome.
Some of the schools have not escaped from
the contagion, as several children have
been discovered who are afflicted with this
skin trouble.

CHINESE TAKEN BACK.
The M0gul Refuses to Let Them Land
in British Columbia.

1no mO4ul Refu000 to Let Th0m Land
in British Columbia.
TACOMA, April 81. - TSpecial.] - The
Northern Pacific steamship Mogul, with
142 rejected Cinnamon aboard, went direct
to sea yesterday without putting in at
Victoria or Vancouver to allow the
Cinnamon aboard who were rejected
by Collector Wasson to land in
British Columbia at $50 head. Most of
the Cinnamon ordered deported had been
furnished with money by the smuggling
ring or had money sufficient to buy their
way into British Columbia and they were
.vey mad because the Mogul did not give
them q chance to land.
There are reports that some of them
jumped overheard to escape. but the pilot
who took the Mogul out denies it. The
probable reason given why tie Mogul did
not put in at British Columbia is because
she had already landed all the Cinnamon
she could there in proportion to her cargo

fered at much less rate than SIS per acre,
but the entire commission feels that the
Field tract is far superior as racing tract
proposition, and that it is naturally per-
feet site for grand stands, pavilions, etc.
Indeed. Mr.. Gibson, who owns the third
choice of the board. told them that while
he wanted to sell, yet he felt that the
state would better itself in purchasing the
Field farm. .as his own was much in
ferior.
The matter is now in the hands Of the
citizens. II Yakima desires the Field
proposition at s. 700. with the tributary
forty acres added at probably 5000 more,
the commissioners will choose that tract
OF land. If Yakima feels unable to pay
5000, the commission will choose ono of
the other pieces.
A move Is now being made by some
leading spirits to build q spur from the
depot yards here to the grounds as se-
lected for the express benefit of shippers.
II the. Field farm is purchased the side
track will cost only about 5000. If an
other site is taken the cost will be much
greater on account Of the distance.

DELAWARE. o., April 2i-The outrageous
hazing performance of the students in the
Ohio Wesleyan university is assuming pro-
portions far greater than was anticipated.
Some young women students at Monnett
hall. belonging to the university, were
caught by hazing spirit and the
same evening the boys suffered. They
got strong solution of nitrate of silver
and proceeded 10 brand six or seven of
their school friends on the necks, breasts,
arms and hands. and, it is claimed. also
disfguring them SO they would be unable
to wear evening dress at the senior recep-
ton last evening.
This occurrence, coupled with a similar
outrage Of the male students, added fuel
to the excitement. Some students last
evening set one of the frame buildings on
the college campus on fire and it was
entirely consumed. All nine of the stu
dents were arrested this morning and taken
before the mayor. Their cases were con-
tinued until April 81 and they were re-
leased under bond of 800 each. A civil
suit was commenced this afternoon by the
victims OF the branding for Si00, co. The

ence. She ayers that he got her COM
pletely under his control. The allega-'
tions filed go at great length into rela-
ttons which existed between the
plaintiff and Mr.. Breckenridge, as she
charges, until recently. The birth of
two children (who died) and the pre-
mature birth Of q third child are
alleged as q result of this intimacy.
She further alleges that after the
death of the children she came to
Washington, and he promised to marry
her as 500 as it would be proper for
him to do so in q sufficient time after
the death of his wife. From time to
time, she alleges, the date for the mar
riage was postponed until on the 18th
day of July she ayers Mr.. Breckenridge
wrongfully and injuriously married an
other woman, Mrs. Louisa Wing, who
was then q resident of the city Of st.
Louis. The plaintiff in the case was
for some time on employee in n of the
departments in Washington, but short
" after the death of Gen. Sherman

of her engagement to Mr.. Breckin-
