Uuiyersities In America.

In lecture before students of the
Johns Hopkins university President
Gilman proved pretty conclusively
that Professor Won Hoist was incor-
rect when he stated that there We're
no universities in America. There
are universities in this country which
will soon be, if they are not already,
the peers of any in the world. With
liberal endowments many of them
have been enabled to secure the serv-
ices of the most noted educators, and
their students will rank as high as
those of the older universities of Eu-
rope. In the higher education of
women this country stands today far
in advance of all other lands and has
set the example which other coun-
tries now follow.-Baltimore AIneri-

ACh,ne.e Colnmnus.

The belief in a Chinese Columbus
was first allowed by scholars only
about so years ago. The claim is
that Buddhist priest i'll the fifth
century crossed the Pacific to the
continent and returned, making a
written report of his discovery. The
report still exists. 1t was translated
into French in 1871 by NJ de Guignes.
1t gives a narrative of voyage east
ward by priest for 10000 Ii, where
he found a country which he named
Fusang. People similar to the Indians
were described as well as American
plants. The only doubt about the
matter is as to the distance meant by
20,0O0h. The priest may have reached
only some island in the Pacific ocean

ties to the controversy. For con-
ductors. trainmeD, engineers, ETC., the
wages remain as they were; track and

HOGAN IN COURT.
The Chief and Cunningham are Placed Under
$1,000 Bonds and the Others Under
Smaller Bail.
Helena Herald.l

Notwithstanding the rush of busi-
ness in the United States circuit
court, Judge Knowles has found time
to take up the Coxey matter. Last
night Marshal McDermott had Ho-
gan, Cunningham and three others of
the leaders brought up from the fair
grounds, and this morning the first
thing after court opened they were
gwen n hearing. The others besides
Hogan and Cunningham were Rogers,
the engineer, and Kelly, who claims
to be an outsider, but who was ar
rested on the engine with Rogers. The
fifth mans name is unknown. Judge
Knowles placed Hogan and Cunning
ham under $5, 900 bonds each and the
other three under 80 900 bonds each
to appear before the court on Thurs
day, May 10, then and there to show
cause why they should not be pun
ished for contempt.
About IL o'clock forty more of the
Coxeyites, being the leading spirits
of the army and consequently the
most intelligent looking OF the crowd,
were brought up to court by a det all
OF % soldiers under command OF
Lieut.. Hambright.
They were marched up from the
camp and halted on Main street in
front OF the court building. There
was a beer wagon standing in front of
the entrance, and as it moved away
some of the prisoners laughingly beck
oned to the driver and said "Hold
on" but this was all there was at any
attempt at a demonstration. The
soldiers opened ranks and between
the files the prisoners passed into the
Gold block and up stairs to the U. s.
marshal's Office, where they were held
until noon, when they were arraigned
in the United States court. Judge
Knowles admitted them to bail and
fixed their bonds at $3.50 each. Their
hearing was also set for Thursday,
to the camp at the fair grounds by
the soldiers.
Hogan, Cunningham and the three
others first arraigned were placed in
the custody of Sheriff Curtis by the
L. 5. marshal, and the sheriff took
them to the county Jail, where they
} are now confined. Their friends III
Butte have retained George Haldorn
of Butte and Robert B. Smith of Hell
, ena a. counsel, and these gentlemen
are at work this afternoon trying to
, secure bail for their clients and at
tending to other preliminaries OF the
defense. Mr.. Haldorn thinks he will
have Hogan and Cunningham out or
bail this afternoon as he wants tc
take them to Butte tomorrow. The
; others will probably be allowed to re
, main in custody until the hearin,
comes off.
, The remainder OF the Coxeyites a

/ same date as the others.

its way down the three-mile stretch OF
woods it was q most fantastic array.
Nine mounted police rode ahead and
then came Carl Browne in his buck

She wore pure white riding habit.

On reaching the capitol grounds the
army halted, Coxey sprang from his
horse and bounded inside the fence in
to the capitol enclosure and Browne
followed suit. The first officer tied
his horse to the fence, leaped his horse
at a bound and darted into the shrub

To GOLD FIELDS new.
Stampede to the Newly Discovered
Camp, Now Called Alexander
City.

GLASGOW, May 5.-The gold excite
ment reached its climax when twelve
miners came in on horseback from
Neihart and over fifty men arrived
from Canada and around Malta.
Fearing the strike would not be de-
clared of the miners from Neihart
had started with pack outfit. They
secured fresh horses here and started
across the country. John Cliff, IL
ranchman living twenty miles north
OF here, was drowned while crossing
the Milk river. In the rush to get
across he, with others, attempted to
swim his horse instead of waiting for
boat. The horses got jammed and
he jumped off, the swift current of the
river carrying away his body. The
accident did not seem to put a dam
per on the others for they rushed or
to the gold fields.
u. w. Alexander, a miner who has
spent the past seven years in hunting
for the mine and who is credited with
the discovery, left here three days ago
with lumber to work his claims. Yes
terday mornings train brought a large
delegation OF miners from Helena and
Great Falls. From an old map OF
Kies the fact is confirmed that this
was his old camp. Part of his pros
pecting outfit is on exhibition in drug
store here. II is difficult to get the
railroad to run trains and the cattle
men mere are hunting employees.
Everybody has thrown up their posi-
tion to get "a claim.
Dan Sullivan, county iailer, has re-
signed lucrative position to run a
saloon at the mines. The miners have
named the diggings Alexander City.
The distance from here is forty miles.

with view not simply to success

will never be possible so long as
the Democratic party is dependent
upon Eastern Democrats dominated
