OVer Inree hundred Engage Al
Depauw University.
GREEN CASTLE, Ind, May 22.-Three
hundred students of the Depauw uni
versity engaged in riot last night, or
as they called it, class fight. Many OF
them were bruised, and a large number
OF others came out of the scrimmage
with their clothing torn and be-
draggled.
The fight was between the sopho-
mores and the seniors on one side and
the juniors and freshmen on the other.
The first two classes gave party and
the last two quietly engaged the COM
pany of the girls of the invited classes.
Then came the war, the seniors and
sophomores attempting to either carry
away by main force the other fellows
or to so disfigure them that they would
not be presentable. The police were
powerless, and the fire alarm was rung
in. Over 800 students participated,
and cracked scalps are common today.
The juniors and freshmen were victori

Successful jail Delivery In Alameda Coun-
ty Last Night.
OAKLAND, May 22-Four prisoners
in the Almeda county Jail broke out
during the night and escaped. They
are Thomas Harris. alias N. F. Hickey,
Jack Demsey, Thomas J. Duffy and
Thomas Denton. Harris had been
charged with sodomy, had had one
trial and would soon be brought up for
second trial, when it was expected he
would be acquitted. He was made q
trusty and had the run of the corridors
and many privileges. His cell was
unlocked at night. He took the other
three prisoners in his cell last night.
They cut through three iron bars and
reached the roof, lowering themselves
to the yard by rope baskets. By means
of canvas ladder pushed over the
wall by broomsticks, they scaled the
wall, and so escaped from the Jail yard
to the street. No trace of the escaped
prisoners has yet been discovered.

VICTORIA, May 21.<Those who have
had most to do with securing the adop-
ton of the new seal regulations, disclose
the fact that serious disagreement oc-
cured between the Canadian authorities
at Ottawa and the British authorities
at London, which at one time threat
ened to bring a renewal of the old reg
ulations. Contrary to the general
belief, the British government has
favored the position of the United
States and not that of Canada as to the
seizing of arms on vessels plying in
Behring sea during the closed season,
but desire in London to continue the
former rule of seizing arms was stub
bornly combated at OTTAWA by polit-
ical influences which saw an advantage
in policy antagonistic to the United
States. These Influences finally pre-
vailed in London, although the author

clared unconstitutional, and the last
hope of the administration to gain rev.
enue by this means has been blighted.
What dark and dismal page in the
history of the country the Democratic
innovation in 1892 upon Republican
rule will furnish. With all branches
of the government in it's possession,
after two years OF attempting to inau-
gurate a new policy, the most distress
perienced, and the most available way
limit has been declared unconstitu-
tional by the highest judicial tribunal
in the country. The free-trade expert
ment has been most dismal failure,
and the people will not permit it to be
tried again during this or, perhaps,
many succeeding generations.
The recent publication of the opin-
ions on American life by Paul Bourget,
Clemenceau and the Marquis de Castel-
lane prove the inability of cultivated
to appreciate our customs or
our national character, says the San
Francisco Chronicle. This is strange,
because well-educated Americans have
no difficulty in estimating at their true
value the traits of French Or German
life. No American who is not hope
lessly provincial would dream of jot-
ting down the absurdities which he |
sees on the Paris boulevards as char |
acteristic of the life of the French peo-
pie; yet all through Bourgeois book is |
seen this tendency to generalize from |
petty or absurd incidents. It is child.
Ish, but it seems to mark also the work
of Clemenceau and Castellane. Is it
hat the national conceit of these
Frenchmen is so large that they are
Unable to see clearly, or that their
,redulity is so much greater than their
common sense? Whatever the reason
he fact remains that their observa-
ions are rendered ludicrous by the i'm
Importance which they give to tribes
md to stories which little investiga-
ion would have shown them were abb
urd and without any foundation. ]
