Quickly Over.

An amusing little story is told Of me
summary way in which President Hop
kins of Williamstown once disposed
Of the case of a student at the college.
The young man had been married Il
short time previous to entering the col
lege, and was led to fear that this feet
might debar him from enjoying some of
the privileges Of the institution. Ac-
cOrdingly. in a great state of perturba-
ton, he called to see President Hop
kins, who received him with much o
diality.
After some conversation, during
which the young man suffered agonics
Of suspense, knowing what he mus
say, he at last managed to stammer
with a crimson face, apropOs of some
thing entirely irrelevant:
IL am Il married man."
"Ah,' said President Hopkins, smil
ing at him with great benignity, "sc
am l."
And there the students trouble ant
perplexity ended. Save that the presi
dent sometimes inquired for his wife
his much dreaded statement had no con
| sequences whatever.
