Of Collector Wise yesterday. The import
ers were represented by M. j. Branden-

grade.

Attorney Osment Failed to Prose-
cute His Case

A heavy damage suit came to an abrupt
conclusion in Judge Levy's court yester-
day owing to the failure of the plaintiffs

The action was brought by w. B. Nc
Sherry against John Mccormick. Nc
Sherry complSinsd that in September
1892. be rented house at 1109 McAilister

McSherry's family of five children were

MeSherry attributed his loss to the defec-
tive drainage of the McAllister-street
house, and In consequence he brought suit
TO recover $50. 600 damages from McCor-
mick.
Yesterday morning the case came up for
hearing. The court waited some time for
the plaintiffs attorney to appear, and then
ordered the case TO proceed. A jury was
impaneled, the defendants case stated,
and the jury was just about to render a
verdict in favor of defendant for $50 ex-
penses when O>mept appeared in court.
Osment pointed to the fact that the case
was not set down for trial In the Law
Journal. and that he did not know hat he
was expected to be present. Attorney
Firebaugh, however. who represented the
defendant, persisted that due notice of the
rial of the action had been sent to the
parties interested. and that judgment ought
TO go by default.

CHIEF OF VASSAR.
DR.. James M. Taylor in

lie SAYS That None of the Students
Have Joined the Salvation Army
as Reported.

DR.. James M. Taylor, president of Vas
sar College, the famous institution for
females located near Poughkeepsle, n. Y,
is at the Palace with his wife. In the
course of his remarks yesterday regarding
the college Dr. Taylor took occasion to
ridicule the statement telegraphed over
the country TO the effect that many OF the
young lady students had associated them
selves with the Salvation Army.
During The visit of Mrs. Ballington
Booth to the college a few months ago. l"
said he. ''many of the young ladies be came
deeply interested III her. as she is charm
ing woman, both in manner and speech. As
a consequence in many cases studens S
agreed o give a speci fed sum annually to
the auxiliary society of the army to aid
IL in its work, but there the matter ended.
None OF them joined the army or any of
its branches"
As to the progress the college has made
the doctor said that six years ago ii had
but 800 students. while this year 474 are
enrolled. OF tie $40 first men toned but
16o were entered in the regular college
classes, while Out of the 474 at present in
attendance 430 are in those classes. The
students come from ne1rly every State IN
the Union, and the charges made Tor col
lege year are S400, which includes board,
washing. tuition and IN TACT all necessary
expenses.
The college is on a good financial basis.

10 the espionage of monitors, but the mat
ter of attending TO all college duties Is
made point of honor with each individual
and the doctor says the plan has worked
splendidly.
The students association takes care of
all matters of that character and relieves
the faculty of the trouble. AS conse-
quence a very high Standard of honor pre-
walls throughout the Institution.
There is a law in existence in New York
Safe VIII en- governs the investment of
trust funds similar to the endOwments OF
Vassar, and prohibits the purchase of
necessities outside the State. For this
reason, DR.. Taylor said, some of the funds
hich nave become due and paid, which
were formerly yielding per cent, have
been placed at 8 per cent. whereas, if they
had been able TO invest them outside of
the State, a larger revenue would have been
derived.
DR.. Taylor dwelt at length upon the
mistaken impression that a coatse in Vas
sar means necessarily the expend ture of
a large sum nf money. "A ynurg laiy of

sessos the requisite means, oi course costs

ming.
Propped up with pillows in a large
willow rocking CHAR, with his eyes
tightly bandagcd, sits Il young man of
Cambridgeport, who was struck by
lightning last Saturday, but lives to tell
His name is Horace w. Folger, he
lives at o5S Green street, and is one
Of the keepers on the pilot boat Flor
cnCc. 1t is not too much to say that
a pair of rubber boots saved his life.
When the storm came up on Saturday
afternoon the pilot boat Florence was
moored a quarter of a mile from Bos-
ton light. Tho keepers OF the boat put
on their oil clothing. southwesters and
rubber boots. and Folger. who is about
% years old. stood on deck observing
the storm. his left hand clasping the
back brace, a wire cord half an inch in
diameter. There had been only two
flashes, and no one aboard thought
danger near. Then came a third, and
Mr.. Folger knew nothing for over an
hour. The current evidently selected
the highest object-the bamboo pole
above the main topmast-and tore 1t
into small pieces after it had ripped
the flag. Then the electricity came
down the backstay into Folger. His
rubber boots. however, offered resist
ance. and so part Of the energy branch
ed off in another direction. AS it was,
his left side caught the force Of the
charge. Luckily three women were
aboard, comprising Il summer pleasure
party. and one Of them proved an ex-
pert in this emergency case. After an
hour Of rubbing and dosing Folgcr be-
gan to show signs of life and com
planned OF Il violent headache. the sen
sation of sea-sickness. a paralyzed con
dition of the left side and throat, and
a prickly feeling through the whole
body. 1t was evening before he be-
came altogether himself. and then he
was taken ashore in the physicians
boat Vigilant and carried to his home
in IN ambulance.
1t was not until Sunday night that
even water passed his lips. In the
meantime his left eye began to pain
him intensely when he opened it and
his skin felt tough as leather. His
face gradually assumed its normal
color after the deep purple flush, caus.
ed by the fash, had faded. Now he is
much more like himself. and there is
good prospects Of his speedy recovery.
He says that the hour following the
stroke Is a blank to him.
