Moore Baker, OF Franklin Park, New
Jersey, is a hero, and n hero with u
broken heart. To his foolish display OF
money before colored lad brought up
by his father he may trace directly tho
butchcry OF his wife and babe. To his
own good right arm and courage is to
be attributed the saving OF two jobs for
tho hNngmau.
1t is not every man who, being
aroused Suddenly from sleep and un.
armed, would have the nerve to grapple
with two armed burglars. This ID wha.
Mr.. Baker did and did successfully. lie
wrenched from one OF them the ax with
which his wife and infant had been
butcaered, and with that weapon he
chopped that murderer to pieces. BY
this time he was able to lay hold OF a
gun, and that did the business for the
other burglar.
It lisa remarkable Incident from be-
ginning to end, and no feature OF it is
more striking than the wonderful cour-
aga and proves OF the husband and
father who SO quickly avenged the MUIR
der of his loved ones. No wonder the
coroner's jury justified him on the spot.
The people OF New Jersey should raise
a monument to his heroism.

Congressman Hartman, OF Montana,
gives an idea OF the cost to his state OF
the tree wool threat. Last year Mon.
tana's sheep were worth SG,OO0O OO.
Thia year they arc worth 100000, n
clear loss of S4.OOO,OOO, two dollars in
every three. Last year the growers re-
ceived for their clip S3,5OO,OOO. This
year, with more wool TO sell, they will
get 81, 100000, loss OF $l,7OO,O0O. The
loss on sheep and wool is S5,7OO,OOO.
This is very heavy loss in ono year
for state Of about one-sixth the popu.
lation Of West Virginia. The sheen in.
dustry OF the country suffers with that

burn 1t as an elligy. Long before the
college bell sounded for chapel the
freshmen had assembled, and the battle
began.
SurGing to and fro on the corridor and
heaped and rolling in the snow on the
campus tho contest went on. The bell
rang out the chapel hour, which glided
by, and the contest still went on.
The juniors were deprived OF the
eiliCy, and before 10 o'clock the last ban
ner was borne oil the campus and the
victory won by the freshmen.
At midnight on the campus cold,
The juniIr boosted of the hour
When 81 should behold
Their tree. and t!erble ut thciT power;
IN boasis on corridor they bore
The trophies OF q conQueror;
III boasts their song OF triumph hear
rs high IN mir with pride they rear
The dummy they should boot and jecr
M!d wi!d applause uud Marcy Laws
III e!igy 10 burn.
At midnight in their study rooms,
MCClure's band II slumbcIS lay,
Needless OF the Iuskets boolas,
Waiting tho coming duy.
There mad other juniors stood;
There had they wHllOwCd In tccir blood
On other FicshmcR's day:
Aud now There DFeOthcd that haunted mir
Freshmen who stu would conquer there
With arms 10 strike aud souls to da,e
as quick, as iGr. as they.
The hours passed on-thc morning broke.
The dry was bright mud fnir
The Juniors 10 their fellows rush
And cry: They come! tho Fresh! the Fresh -
They drink their last fond drop OF rum,
Then. armed With broomslicEs, clubs aud drums
10 deal tue death Shots thick and last
AS lightning from the mountain cloud.
And heard, with voice rs trumpet loud.
BTavc klmmcl cheer his baud:
Forward! the campus Is our own,
Slr!kei with club Or fist or Stone.
Choke! whenyou find the mans your own.
Let not Freshman stand
They fought like beasts AMI hnwled like dogs:
Ihcyp!iet their crdgels and their clubs.
They would have tried 10 light with logs
But the freshmen bruised their mug,
The looEerS.On with pleasure saw
The freshmen smile, when with proul hur,ob
The red field was won '"''
Then saw the juniors cycids close
In company nS Swelcd his nose,
As from the field they run.
Come to the contest, Juniors brave.
Come TO the freshmen whom they behold
For the first time their banners wave,
Come with your diretul boast so bold.
Spread taT and wide your painted snow.
Writing on banners all yon know.
Come with your dummy's bcIstlv form
Your GcAicning yell AS thunder storm,
Come when your hearts are high and warn,
With junior song and drum and wine
And thon shall; have thine own-the tear
The Gruan, the feeble Ssoan-and nil We know,
Or dream, or hear,
OF dark defeat are thine
