BRAINY YOUNG MEN IN LINE.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CAL, Sept.
8.-The Republicans held an enthusiastic
meeting heIe last evening, and for two
hours the quadrangle resounded with
yells for the Republican candidate for
President. Four hundred students turned
out to listen to the speeches, all by stu
dents of the university. The meeting was
held under the auspices of the Mckinley
Club, which numb bers several hundred
members now. The Democrats had a
club, but its officers have become Repub-
icans during the past summer, aud as yet
there has been no one to call a meeting.
The Republican rally was the first of q
series to be held during the campaign.
The meeting was called to order by Mr..
SwitZer '9S, president of the club, who
made brief but ringing address on the
need of organization among the students
to advance the cause OF Mckinley and
prosperity. He introduced Sheldon '96,
formerly Democrat and an officer of the
Democratic Club here. Sheldon was one
of the Stanford intercollegiate debaters in
the last debate with Berkeley, and his con-
version 10 the cause of sound money is
considered quite circumstance here.
Sheldon made one of the best speeches
of the evening. He mentioned briefly the
dangers OF the proposed Democratlc mea-
sure and policy and the disaster likely to
result to the commercial interests of the
country from their adoption. He advised no
one to cast a vote for the gold nominees
Palmer and Buckner-on the ground that
it would be vote thrown away. A Demo
crat IN favor of sound money must vote
for Mckinley, he said. for he weakened
the great cause he believed in should he
cast vote for Palmer.
Sheldon emphasized the fact that inter-
national bimetalism was the only sort of
bimetallism that would be practicable,
and showed how intimately the policy of
this country was bound up in that of other
nations.
Ross, also an intercollegiate debater,
made lucid statement of the issues at
stake. His speech was roundly cheered.
Among others who addressed the meet
ing were Squires '97 of Nebraska, who
believes his State will go Republican,
Lake '97 and Kinney 90.

STANFOR0'S CLASS-RUSH
Freshmen Defeat Sophomores
in the First Clash of
the Year.
Newcomers Take Many Prisoners in
an Exciting Contest for
Supremacy.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CAL, Sept.
9.-The first class rush of the year came
OF to-day, and as result the ''nittT-nits"
are walking around with their heads high
In the air, for the sophomores were downed
in an efficient manner, Notwithstanding
their organization and pluck. Fully sixty
men had been organized by sophomores,
who elected Rollie Wilbur '99, the shot
putter, as their captain, and Freeman, the
tennis champion, as first lieutenant. The
who!e number was divided up into squads
OF three or four men each, and all were
provided with rope. Last evening they
donned their rushing clothes and marched
about the campus and the mems dormi-
tory shouting their battle cry:
'Rah, 'Rah. 'Rah,
Sis boom ah;
'99, '99,
Ha. Ha. Ha.
But the freshmen were not to be taken
in in that manner and so avoided the rush,
but notified the ''sophs' that they would
be on deck this afternoon-and they were
with vengeance. Everybody knew that
a rush was to occur and the chief subject
OF conversation during the lunch-hour was
how il would result. 1t was well known
that the freshmen had moro large men
than the sophomores and that they were
greater in mum bers, but experience and
organization were all on the side OF the
sophomores.
Shortly after the lunch-hour the fresh
men prepared to march upon the sopho-
mores, who were believed to be ensconeed
behind the big museum. The news came
then that the "sophs" had been making
hay while the sun shone and had captured
all the freshmen as they came up from
Palo Alto; that these men. to the number
~ hoH IL
Redwood City, five miles away.
A scramble over the field to the Palo
Alto road was made by the seventy or
more freshmen and here they met in bat
tie. 1t was a sight to be rememb bered.
Neatly dressed co-eds were on hand in
plenty, but they evidently cared less for
their unfortunate brothers than did the
Berkeley girls. There was no administer
ing TO the wants of the wounded. Upper
classmen were on in plenty, and those
who steered clear of rusbes when their
own class rushing days were on seemed to
be more prominent than ever in advising
the com batants.
Both sides were dressed for the occasion
in the Oldest, most tattered garments pro-
curable.
The scrap was fast and furious; at first
one side seemed to have 6n advantage
and then the other. Men would sway
backward and forward in their wrestling,
roll in the dust till they were as black as
coalheavers, tie each other up as fast as
possible and then be carted off to the re-
spective piles of prisoners, perhaps to get
loose and do 1t all over again until they
were utterly exhausted. The fight lasted
forty minutes and eliminated in the
carting away by the freshmen of all their
prisoners to neighboring points, the pris-
oners being dropped off along the road to
make their way back as fast as they could.
The yell of the 1900 classmen changed
