ANARCHISTS AT YALE.

students Do Not Permit Bryan to Speak
at New Haven--An Indiana Case.
1t is noteworthy that Mr. Bryan has
fbeen permitted TO speak wherever he
desired in all this country except in New
Haven, and on the famous campus Of
Yale college. Fifteen thousand people
assembled there the other day to hear
him, but 500 Yale students disposed
themselves in the crowd and created so
much noise and caused such disturb
ance that it was impossible for him to
aproceed and the attempt was aban-
4doned. The students INDUCED in cheers
for Mckinley, college yells, and, the
dispatches say, rendered the Frog
Chorus from Aristophanes."
If Mckinley meeting had been thus
broken up in the west the republican
press would have denounced it unsPar-
irgly as an outburst of anarchy. AS it
is, they apologize for it and excuse it
'ron the ground of "hoyish exuberance"
There has been no lack, however, of I'M
'sparing criticism. The spirit of de-
"cency and fair play all over the country
has denounced the outrage in unspar-
ing terms.
few days later the students of Wa
bash college at Charlottesville, Ind, I'M
dertook to render the Frog Chorus
from Aristophanes" on somewhat sim
liar occasion. Col. Patterson was
speaking there, and crowd of these
students desiring to emulate Yale I'M
'dertook to break up the meeting But

the meeting proceeded without inter

sition at Benefits restaurant, on Park

were under espionage. Brong was ex-
amined as one Of the suspects His last

NET DEATH ON THE RAIL.
william Kelly struck by Al Baltimore
and Ohio Engine.


William Kelly, u seafarng man. nearly
forty years of age, was struck by an ex-
press train near Langdon, Mon gomery
county, Md, on the Is. d q Railroad, about
II O'Clock yesterday morning and instantly
killed.
The body was removed TO this city and
is now at the morgue. where an inquest
will lie held today ut 8 O'Clock. From what
could be learned last night the mans death
seems TO he purely accidental.
Kelly was walking the track and was
headed for Baltimore. The train was amin
coming Chicago express and was moving
at "a rapid rate, and the victim did not see
1T until too late, Notwithstanding the fact
that the engineer blew the whistle and
rang the bell.
Apparently he did not hear the warnin z
signals and before the train could be
stopped ii struck him.
Death resulted iusJantaneousIy, his skull
being crushed. while hoth legs and one arm
were broken in numerous. places.
From papers found on the dead mans
person il was fouhd that he had / cen sea-
fanng man and that his birthplace was
Liverpool, Eng. Several discharge papers
in his pockets showed that he had been
employed as IL fireman on merchant vessels.
There was nothing on the man to in
dicate that he had a home in this country.
1t is thought that tie has no friends in this
city. and mo re than likely the remains Will

DISAPPEARED IN QUICKSAND.
The Danish Bark Lottie WasSwalIow
ed In, With Masts Standing


The Pacific Coast Steamship~Company's
steamer Coos Bay, which arrived in port
the other day from the Mexican coast,
brought news of the loss at Atata of the
Danish bark Lottie.
1t was during the latter part of last month
that the Lottie. having finished loading a
heavy cargo of dye wood, prepared to sail
for Hamburg. owing to the dangerous
character of the harbOr of Altata, no YES
sci dares to attempt leaving it without the
assistance of a towboat. There are two
separate channels in the bay. the dividing
line being long and treacherous bar OF
uuicksand. Capt. Clausen. OF the Lottie.
summoned to his aid the steam schooner
Altata. which is about the only available
vessel for towing service there.
The bark got along well enough in the
wake OF the steamer until she reached q
narrow portion of the channel she was ira
versing at a point where the bar was
breaking with unusual force. Here the
Lottic got into trouble. Swinging around on
the hawser, she struck a shallow spot, and
in moment began pounding upon the bar.
The AItata could not pull the bark out of
her dangerous position. The steamer stayed
with the Dane during the night. still yainly
striving to get her off the bar. and finally,
when she made an unusually powerful ef-
fort, tue haWser parted, and the bark be
came wedged securely in the sand.
The captain and crew of the Lottie knew
what it meant TO go ashore in quicksand
and they lost no time in getting out the
boats and making for the shore.
At da Wight the sea was calmer. and Capt.
Causen and some of his men visited their
vessel. All that remained in sight was heI
deck house and;masts. the hull having slisap'
pea red in the auicksand. The men. although
realizing that it was risky undertaking
crawled upon the deck house, and in that
way managed to; getinto their living quar-
tiers. They ecqyered their clothes and
valuables apd the captain secured his in
struments and charts,
Capt Jenson.-of the Coos Bay, says that
when he left Arata about twelve days ago
the Lottie had completely disappeared.

Kirk Greenwood Squirrel Hunting
AwheeklG Guns for Wheelmen.


Kirk Greenwood's Squirrel Hunting
AwheeksGuns for Wheelmen.
Kirk Greenland tells in Gameiapd how he
went squirrel hunting last fall on bicycle.
with a 22-caliber rifle. He carried the
weapon on his wheels upper bar, over the
hanolebars, or carbine-fashion, on his back.
He got gray and black squirrels ON Long
Island, Staten Island. and over in New Jer-
sey. He also killed a few rabbits and game
birds The rifle was repeater, but some
persons out for sportoniy would much rather
have ia rgetpistol with barrela footlong
Such a weapon is much easier to carry. 1t
requires greater skill to use, however.
A wheel company has originated de-
vice for carrying shotgun or rifle on a
wheel, which weighs a little over two
pounds.
Guns for the especial use OF wheelnen are
being thought of-gunsthats shut up like jack
knives. There are men getting ready, it is
said, to give exhibitions of fancy shooting
from bicycle saddles. One firm has novel
plate for its wheel that shows hunter in
full costume, with a dog alongside. on the
way to the bird grounds on btcycie.
