CHANGES AT HARVARD.
Vote by the Faculty to Reduce Length oi
 Study In the College.

Vote by the Faculty to Reduce Length of
 Study In the College.
 For two weeks there has been sharp debate in the Harvard faculty on the proposition to reduce the course of study in the college from four to three years. The Sun reporter learned on the best authority that some action was taken at the last faculty meeting, and President Eliot, when asked concerning the mat ter, admitted that fact. He said the faculty had voted by a small majority to reduce the number of courses required for degree from IS to 15, and that the idea was that any man who had passed 12 of the 15 courses with credit should receive his degree.
 This means three years course for the college and dissolution of all the class lines and class feeling. The ma jority in favor of the motion, however, was so small that the vote was not con- sidered final. The scheme will have to be approved by the corporation and board of overseers before it can go into effect Members of the faculty who op- posed the plan think that the action would be mistake and predict that if it passes favorably it will bring on a storm of indignation from graduates. - New York Sun.

Fog Horns.

In a communication to the French Academy of Sciences an explanation is given of some of the hitherto unaccount- able phenomena pertaining to gor horns. It has been found in regard to acoustic signals, or sirens, that they are sur rounded by a neutral zone in which the sound is not heard at the sea level-a zone moro or less distant, according to the height of the siren on the coast and it has a mean width of about s, 400 feet. On the nearer side of this zona the sound is of course heard perfectly, but when it is traversed the sound weakens gradually until it becomes scarcely per ceptible, when it increases again, and, on the zone being left behind, the sound resumes its full intensity. Experiments have been made on this line with a steam vessel, by causing it to approach or recede from lightship in different directions and ill straight line. In each course, according to the account pub lished, the sound was deadened almost completely in zone whose central line was about 15, 900 feet from the siren.

Colder Than the North Pole.

Walter Wellman, who has been to the arctic regions himself, says that Nell ville's theory of an eternal ocean ice cap is as indefensible as the old notion of an open polar sea. At the pole the mean annual temperature is reckoned at de- grees F. above zero. In summer it IS doubtless often so warm there that the lucky explorer who reaches it's neigh borhood will pull at his sledge with bare hands and without any coat to in- cumber him. During three months of summer the mercury would not fall be- low 10 degrees above zero. He might pass a whole winter there without see- ing the mercury drop any lower than it occasionally falls in Manitoba and north ern Minnesota. But be would find 8 steadier cold. For three months. proba- bly, he would have no higher tempera- ture than 20 degrees below.
 Arctic climate, like many other things in that region, is little under stood by people who have not given the subject special study. In that country it is always cold when the wind blows, summer or winter. But even in winter. when the wind is light or still, we'll clad man can move about in comfort.

An All Night Scare.

Young Englishmen visiting the Unit. ed States have as many absurd and amusing experiences as Americans have when in foreign countries. The Wash. ingtch Star tells of an English traveller who had been assured that west of the Missouri river the entire country was infested with bears, some of which were go bold that they came into the towns.
 He stopped in Kansas village, and in tho evening started out for walk. The stores were closed, but the moon was shining brightly. He rambled abo2t the place for couple of hours, end started down the business street for the hotel Suddenly he saw before him on the sidewalk big bear, sitting on it's launches, with open mouth and paws extended. awaiting his coming.
 In a moment he was on top of a porch, crying for help, but no one heard him, and the bear sat and watched him. All night long he staid there, trembling for fear bruin would climb the post, but comforting himself with the idea that it was too small to be used by bear.
 At daybreak some men came along, and one of them wheeled the bear back to the doorway with the remark, "I wonder who put that sign in the middle of the walk. '"
 The tourist descended from the porch without detection, and had he not sub- sequently enjoyed the story so much that he told it himself it would never have been known.

SAVED BY THE GIRLS.
New Jersey Skater Rescued by Female
 Heroism and Originality.

John Mitchell, we'll known young man, broke through the ice while skating on Speedwell lake near Morristown, N. J. The water was deep and cold, and Mitchell screamed for help as he strug- gled for life. Several young women who witnessed the accident went to his as- sistance and by prompt and original plans began scheme to rescue him.
 Several excited young men skated up intent on brave deeds, full of suggestions, but devoid of plans. The young women pushed them out of the way without ceremony and set about to work out Mitchell's salvation by their own meth ods. Two of the girls lay down on the ice and the others held on their dresses while they reached into the water and seized the drowning man by the arms. Considerable vigorous pulling resulted in bringing Mitchell out upon the stron- ger ice, where he soon recovered his breath and went home to thaw out New York Recorder.

MERRY MEDICINE WAR.
Chicago DrugRists to Make Patent Cure
 of Their Own.

Chicago DrugRists to Make Patent Cures
 of Their Own.
 4 factory for making remedies simi- lar in nature to the proprietary medi- cines now on the market is to be started in Chicago by retail druggists. A large majority of the pharmacists are inter ested, and they hope to drive the medi- cine makers from the field.
 The retail druggists have formed the United States Pharmaceutical company and have issued stock to the amount of $20, 900. Almost all of this has been taken up by prominent pharmacists.
 The formation of the company was the outgrowth of a recommendation made by the Illinois Pharmacists asso- ciation The members of that associa- tion said that nothing could be done to check the cutting in prices, and that druggists must enter the field as manu- lecturers. As result 250 of the retail CTS of Chicago met and formed con- pany. In two weeks more than 250 Chi cago names have been added to those of the organizers, and from the state at large 100 more have come.
 Their object is to fight in practical way the cutting of prices of drugs and medicines handled by department stores and to combat at the same time the sale of medicines by the manufacturers and wholesale dealers to these stores.
 Hereafter when person wants dose to cure a headache and asks for the remedy usually taken the druggist will advise him to take something not only "just as good" but scientifically better, because it has been compounded by committee of physicians and druggists of the highest reputation. The same thing will be told the man who wants blood purifier or a plaster.
