The Cost Of Education Now nj Cam.
bridge University, England.
The Cambridge students of to-day
strike the stranger as a splendid lot OF
healthy, earnest young men, says n
writer In the Omaha Bee. The descrip-
tons of Cambridge life at the end Of
the last century which have been given
us would not hit the mark now. In
those days beer drinking and roystcr-
Ing and dog fancying and horse riding
occupied most of the time of the young
lords, more angles being described on
billiard tables than in the class-roorns.
This sort of thing is very much looked
down upon nowadays. and the boys
who make display of their wealth are
by no means the most popular When
the young princes were sent to Cam
bridge the Prince of Wales left positive
instructions that their companions
were to be absolutely selected from tho
industry stood highest. and that under
students whose morals. capacity and
no circumstances should they associate
with the fast set of young extravaganza
lords and rich mems sons, who some
times boasted that they would not have
to live by their learning. Economy. de-
cency, manliness and earnestness seem

ample to meet the entire expenses Of

that this sum was not only unnecessary
but undesirable. On the ship coming

can college. The stories those young
men told me Of the extravaganza Of COL
lege students In the United States. n
true, were enough to make us out Of
conceit with the higher schools Of our
own country. Compare the simple
rooms Of Cambridge students, and
Cambridge professors, too, for that
matter. with some Of the suites Of our
own college "swelldoni." And yet what
procession Of great men these little
rooms with their narrow staircaseo,
low doors and dlamond.paned leaden
window easements. have seen. Our
rich men, most Of them men Of simple
habits and tastes, would do well to fol-
low the present generation Of wealthy
Englishmen and insist upon no vulgar
display ut college. Let them think Of
the splendid young men Cambridge ID
turning out at cost per annum Of
from $3.50 to 81 900. the first mentioned
sum, the faculty says, preferred.

A Gigantic Beehive,

Portable place to travel In. The last
time went through It took both the
long and short routes, as they are cali

or too many bees for me to feel en-
tirely comfortable, although I was not
attacked by any Of them. II the cave

rich finds would undoubtedly be made.
The bees are increasing constantly.

A Trial by Jury.

Some time ago In the Barnett County
N. c. Superior Court, Judge Shipp
presiding, the trial Of case had been
protracted till near midnight. The Jury
was tired and sleepy and showed flag
ging attention. Willie Murchison, who
was addressing the jury, thought to
arouse them, SO he said:
Gentlemen, ! will tell you an ance.
dOte,"
Instantly, the judge, the jury, ana tho
few spectators pricked up their cara
and were all attention, as Murchison
was admirable In that line, had fund
Of anecdotes, and no one could tell
them better. But he soon proceeded to
tell one Of the dullest, prosiest ana
most pointless jokes possible. Every
body looked disappointed. The judge
leaning over, said In an unmistakabl,
tone Of disappointment: "Mr. Murchi
son, l don't see the point to that joke"
"NOr i either" replied the witty couE-
sci. But your honor told 1t to me on
our way down here, and, as thought
the lack Of appreciation must be due to
my Obtuseness, l concluded to give the
Joke trial by jury"

Don't You know p But how

The necklace was put in her special

And she burst into a storm of
mingled tears and laughter.
There was rather unusual scene
in that court that day when the
necklace itself was presented in ev-
idence before the legal luminaries.
The complaint was withdrawn.
and the prisoner was honorably dis
charged. The composed and aris-
tocratic Mrs. General Grafton was
greatly moved and made many apol-
ogies to Miss Kasson for the posi-
ton she had taken.
The newspaper reporters got q
great many points for the even

This years bonnet is composed Of a
very large hole surrounded by bit of jet
joined in the back by two feathers. This
Is the correct thing, so OF course the
ultra swell set wear such head covering.
Some times, however, pride goes just be-
fore fall. A stylishly dressed woman
walked into certain shoe store
about week ago. While buying a pair
of shoes she must have leaned over too
far. Anyway, after she left, dainty
wreath OF jet and feathers was found on
the floor 1t was picked up by one of the
clerks. A consultation was held. One
clerk said he seemed TO remember seeing
IL on the woman's head. On a yea and
nay vote IL was voted bonnet. The wo-
man who did not notice the absence of
the dainty nothingness on her head, must
have walked home bareheaded.
