HAZlNG AT HARVARD.
The Franks That Were Played Upon the
Freshmen In the Seventies.


Hazing it, so far as knew it personally,
was rather mortifying to ones self esteem
than painful. l think l had to recite
"Mary had little lamb in my night
gown with pitcher in my hand TO group
of appreciative sophomores who were
smoking TO man as hard as they could.
A few of my classmates had pals of cold
water poured over them in bed, but was
little and perhaps that saved me- Smok-
ing out a freshman with tobacco smoke
was favorite device, and we were all Ii
able to be called on at any time to treat to
cigars either Mt our rooms or at Ia ubbard s,
the apothecary. A freshman, instead of
being gentleman and u scholar as ut pres
ent, was regarded as the scum of the earth,
without property rights. The following
letter was sent by sophomore of my class
to freshman. The "a man had it print
ed and circulated.
DEAR SIR-I speak for the sophomore class
when say that you need have no fear Of fur
Their roughing if you are willing TO follow the
example of your classmates and the custom OF
the college in the matter of treating and are
willing to promise to give up the use of cane
for the remainder of the term. III you choose
to come with me TO Hubbard's and get six CT
CARS, l will give them 20 members of the class
and see that your algebra Is returned. L am
disinterested in saying this, as do not smoke.
You had better consider this proposition, as
the class are much provoked at your obstinacy
and will not be very careful in what they say
or do otherwise If you will call mt 9 Grays
at any time within two or three days, will
represent the class. Yours etc.
This was signed with the real name Of
the writer, and he added, in large letters,
oslo Semper Stultibus," lapse in Latin
which was the occasion of some morri-
ment, and wounded our class pride. Judge
Robert Grant in Scribner's.

Chicago Policemen az Bankers.

The Harrison street police station does
banking business 1t does not loan money
or discount commercial paper, but it acts
as n safe deposit company. The officers
there receive deposits of money which they
put in the safe. But they do not pay in
terest. Most of the customers, however,
are well content to allow their money to
remain on that condition.
The business is rapidly increasing, and
it is seldom that there are not few hun
dred dollars in the big safe.
The Harrison street police station is in
the heart of the levee and the tendcrloin
district of Chicago. Very often men in
search of "good time" find themselves in
that section. After having taken few
drinks they realize that it is risky to carry
big roll of money with them. So for Sc
cure keeping they will call at the police
station and ask the sergeant in charge to
take care of the money until they want It,
The sergeant is obliging, and the money
is locked up in the safe, and the next day
the owner is richer by that much money.
No one has lost any money by leaving 1T
with the police Aside from the fact that
the policemen are honest, such thing as
robLing police station is unknown. Tho
most daring burglar would hesitate before
he would attempt it. The safe is good and
strong and the police station has telephone
and Geographic communication with all OF
the other stations, and should there be a
hold up there the description of the robber
would bo known TO every policeman In the
city within few hours
The police good naturally accept the re-
sponsibility imposed upon them, for which
they receive no remuneration, although
occasionally some one whose money they
have saved will offer them cigars. -Chica'

Operators Are Getting Ready to Resume the
Digging of Coal.
NO DOUBT OF OUTCOME At COLUMBUS

District VIII lie in Operation
Next wcck-Shippcrs Husy
Making Contracts.

PlTTSBURG, Sept. S.--The coal operators
are unusually active in getting their mines
ready for operation. Many are ready for a
start tomorrow. No doubt is expressed as
to the result of the convention at Columbus
and an order declaring the strike of is cN-
pected before the close OF the day. The
mules that have been enjoying the last
two months in pasture have been called in
and blacksmiths at the mines have been
busy all week getting them ready for work
in the mines. District President Dolan OF
the miners organization was commended by
the operators for the stand he took in the
convention yesterday 1t is believed that
all the mines in the Pittsburg district will
be in operation before Monday morning. A
number of lake shippers arrived in
the city from Cleveland during the day and
are tusy making contracts with the producers
for coal. There is no qubbling about prices,
and 20 cents above the mining price is the
generally accepted rate. These prices will
likely he maintained until after the lake
contracts are filled, when there may be an
attempt to buy coal cheaper. The producers,
however, are perfecting their organization
and declare they will sell no coal under 20
cents ton above mining.
COLUMBUS, O., Sept. S.-Thc interstate
miners convention adjourned this cEening
until tomorrow morning without having
taken n vote on the question of accepting
or rejecting the proposed settlement of the
strike. The prospects of settlement arc
somewhat doubtful, in fact canvass of the
situation shows that n majority of votes,
unless some change should be brought about
will be cast against It,
