A College OmcIai Who Was Wen Known

A College OmcIai Who Was Wen Known
to All the students.
William B. Nyc. who died last week. was we'll
known to Columbia College grad yates and for
the last fifteen years he had come more directly
into personal contact with the students of what
was known as the School OF Arts. or the under
graduate academic department.. than any other
man In the college. Students might attend the
lectures OF one professor or another during one
Of the four years OF their course, hut they were
certain to be brought into close contact with Mr..
Nyc many times during the whole OF their col
leglHte career. He was the registrar OF the
college, and in this capacity he was interviewed
often by students anxious as to the result of
their examination.
1t was Mr.. Nye who stood between the stu.
dents and the President before the later changes
IN the colleges plans. and any petition to tho
faculty went, into his hands. lie wae the first
TO learn OF the students troubles and IL was
his duty to notify them of what thsir
for admission when they first came up
for tho preliminary eIamination made
him received notifications OF the result Of their
Efforts. In those days Mr.. Nye was a pretty
constant associate with Coluinhi men in their
progress through the four years of the academic
course. and nearly all OF the steps BY which tllcy
advanced from the Stage OF nervous applicants
connected in one way or ano her with MIR. Nye.
He was q ~taciturn man. and it was, not 10 bs
etIetlcu tnht HhCn WUTk AS MS wONlu hb likely
To make a man cheerful. He was chiefly called
upon 10 answer questions and usually questions
put by either disappointed. nervous. or rebel
lious young men. So his answers came after Il
while tn be ~ brief as possible, and he was as
sparing. in words as he was in the expires
what more cordial as he came to know
the students better. hut even in those
cases he unoent little. and he was reserved
In manner and no more communicative
than necessary At any time. The greater part
or his dealings happened 10 be- with men who
wanted ItnNAm nAIlnnS n r inhnlunIaAl nf
some kind from the faculty, and lie never ap-
pearcd Inclined to grow more intimate with any
OF this class OF the students. When he did un-
bend II was toward those whose dealings with
him were OF a different nature.

The erudition of the State GeolOgist
of South Dakota will evolve probably
some scientific explanation Of the sub
terranean vagaries of Mrs. Mary John
sons farm, but 1t will require also the
opinions of meteorological and bicycle
experts to satisfy fully the curiosity
Of the public. From the details now
at hand one would hazard the opinion
that Mrs. Johnson has been living In
faneled security over prehistoric biz
gard or tornado. Probably when this
ancient twister was performing in the
reckless manner common to its kind
it was caught unawares by combina-
ton of landslides and held in cap
tivity with Its forces yet unexpended
1t is due to the happy thought Of Mrs
Johnson that she would like to have
q deep we'll that some expert drillers
reached this realistic cave Of the winds
and released enough Of the contents
of the pneumatic stratum of the farm
to indicate its boundlesS wind possibil-
tiles. "As soon as the air cushion Is
reached" says the chrOnicler Of the
episode, "the wind rushes out with
screech like locomotive, and sixteen
pound sledges are tossed into the air
as lightly as feathers" A wind that
has been reposing In enforced mac.
ton for decades and possibly centuries
and that on the slightest provocation
handles sixteen-pound Sledges as If
they were feathers and screeches like
q locomotive is a farm product that
must receive the most thorough inveSti-
cation from every possible point Of
view The meteorolOgist and State &C.
ologist may determine its status In the
fora and fauna Of the region, and
may issue wise and technical bulletins
as to It's past history and future posi-
bilities, but it Is apparent moro prac-
teal minds must be brought to bear
on the phenomenon to insure obtaining
the greatest measure Of utility. A b.
cyclist of experience would be able
to tell at a glance or two whether II
would be feasible to run pipe lines
from the farm to all parts Of the United
States as a supply agency for the infia-
ton of tires. 1t is not impossible that
some similar plan could be devised so
that the innumerable windmills Of the
Nation would not be dependent longer
on natures intermittent supply, and
yachtsmen certainly would welcome
such stable force as a panacea for
the vexatious calm that has been found
so troublesome IN the management OF
lesattas.

FATAL BULL FIGHT.
pioadOr Pierced and Mangled by an Infatuated
Brute

A bull fight, with fatal results, occurred at
NorgaIes, Sonora, Ariz., and Tor a short time
caused a panic In the audience.
One Of the bulls becoming more enraged
than usual at these rather tame fights, rush
ed about the arena goring everything within
its reach. A horse was disemboweled A
picador, Jose Angulo, In an attempt to place
a thorn in the side Of tho wild animal, was
caught on one Of his long horns, which
pierced him like a sword. He was tossed
and fell to the ground bleeding and man
gled, who're the beast held him between his
horns and bit and paved him.
He was frightfully injured and died few
minutes later. There was intense excitement
in the audience, and at one time It was on
the verge OF panic, but was quieted BY the
killing Of the bull.
