evidence on his side. and hence his re-
lease.

THINGS QUIET AT THE COLLEGE.
The Boys Leave for Home To-Day and No
P,r,ber Decentralization Expected,

The Boys Leave for Home To-Day ana NO
Further Demonstration Expected.
The students of Richmond College have
taken no further action since the hanging
of Protector Boatwright In effigy on the
college campus Tuesday night, and as the
Identity OF those who perpetrated the
CHASTITY Joke Is unknown TO the faculty.
they have not deemed II necessary 10 dis.
cuss the matter. Hence. no meeting OF
that body has been held. and no action
has been taken by them.
The students will go TO their homes to-
day and tomorrow 10 spend their Christ
mas holidays, and will not return for
about two weeks. 1t is hoped by all In
terested that during this period of rest
from studies and college cares they VIII
reflect carefully upon tho situation. ana
will conclude TO make no further demon
stratlon OF their disapproval OF PROFESSOR
Boatwrlghts election to the presidency.
The rumor that more trouble might be
expected tonight was the talk or the
college yesterday. but not one Of the many
students seen by the Dispatch man
gave credence to the rumor, and all
were emphatic In their disavowal OF any
intention to participate in anything at all
unusual. 1t was stated that the students
NtPlltu u uHNlSt W MY
undignified demonstrations. and that when
they return from their holidays they VIII
present to the trustees n petition me-
morlalzng them 10 rescind their action
in advancing Professor Boatwright TO the
presidency. and will abide by the final de-
cision Of the boaru.
A member Of the faculty said TO Dis
patch man that he was indebted TO the
Dispatch for a great deal of the iniorma-
ton he possessed in relation to the
trouble as the interchangeable work Of It's
reporters had unearthed facts Of which
he had no knowledge.
The rumor that there may be some re-
slgnations among the faculty Professor
Boatwright accepts the Office still obtains,
but not one Of the faculty, all of whom
have bsen interviewed by the Dispatch
reporters, has been willing to make any
such statement.
The rumpus mo other name suits 1t so
welD is probably at an end now. ana
there Is httle probability that the trouble
will be renewed before the annual meet
ing Of the trustees in June,neXt, If 1t even
is then.
