E1UCATION IN COLORADO.

The Denver News this morning printed
special from Boston giving an editorial
il! the Congregationalist which is we'll
calculated to excite interest in the minds
of Coloradoans.
The editorial is in reference to the
founding of new university in Colorado
and opens out with the following:
"a new university IN the west excites
no surprise. The interest in it arises
from the fact that the east is expected to
support it. We have heard from time to
time of the Westminster university of
Denver. More than one of our acqualn-
tances have been offered salary of SIo,-
900 to be its president, but none of them
has ventured to accept the tempting OF
fer. 1t does not, as yet, so far as students
are concerned. exist even on paper as
does the institution OF which Dr. Andrews
of Brown is the new president"
The article then continues and points
out that Colorado has the nuclei of edu-
cational institutions galore, and con-
cludes by saying;
$50 far as names 60, Colorado with its
100000 inhabitants, is as we'll equipped
educationally as any state in the Union.
But if eastern givers want to plant new
institutions here, why this is a free
country"
They seem to think that Colorado has
called upon them to add to its instltu-
tions. Not so. Its sarcastic utterance
that $50 far as names CO." ETC., Is not
based upon absolute knowledge. Colo
RADIO is in realty so we'll equipped. With
its four state institutions, the State Uni
versity, the School Of Mines. the Agri-
cultural School and the Normal school. it
fully compasses the needs in all callings
and professions. save in theology and
that is well supplied by the two sectariau
institutions at Denver and Colorado
Springs.
1t is true that these institutions need
financial aid, and as in the case of the
university need it badly. but it will be
forthcoming, and from within the con.
fines of the state.
An inspection of the University today
renders somewhat ludicrous the sarcastic
tombstone suggestion made in the article.
The University has full coterie of pro-
fessors in all departments, and the staff
is as able one as can be secured. The
chapel is inadequte to hold the students
and class room facilities are not as ex-
tensive as could be desired, but any in.
stitution that increases its attendance by
a fourth every year is likely to be tempo
rarily disconnected. AS quickly as the
new buildings can be completed, how.
ever, the stress will be relieved. And
Colorado money will supply the needs,
and for the benefit of education and not
for the personal aggrandizement of some
trust fed philanthropist who wishes his
detested name immort allied.

"What was it," asked the man at the
fountain.
"Why, I had an ace full beat by an
other full. I'll tell you how it hap
pened. You know we have quiet lit
tie game over here on Dearborn street
nearly every Saturday night. Well, last
night we got into five handed game.
There were julius chattel mortgage

made him queen full. julius asked
for one card ard made spade flush.
"Well, 1 bet check on the go, the

JACKS DOUBLE PLAY"
His Presence of Mind Cost His
Father a Check for the Doctor.

A graduate of Union College tells this
story There was in college with MIN
young man who, being accustomed TO
take frequent trips to New York, on
one of these excursions was embar-
rassed by seeing his father approach
ing him. In a moment he resolved to
play the part of his own double. His
father, looking surprised, accosted him
with We'll, Jack, what are you doing
here?"
With great dignity the culprit re-
piled: Il beg your pardon, sir, but you
have evidently mistaken the person"
Why, Jack, what do you mean?"
Excuse me, sir, but 1 do not care
to be interrupted in this manner by
stranger" and he turned abruptly and
walked quickly away His father stood
confused for a moment and then i'm
mediately set off for the Grand Cen
trail Depot to catch the train for
Schenectady, and prove that Jack was
an impostor. But Jack quickly guessed
his object and, reaching the depot,
caught the same train, but for safety
settled himself in the baggage car.
When the nervous ride was over and
the train stopped at Schenectady the
prosecuted youth ran up to the college
at sprinters gait and, bursting into
his room, said to his roommate: Get
me in bed quick; the old man will be
here in a minute.'
Jack was soon in bed with a wet
cloth around his head, his face pow
dered, a teacup with broken saucer and
spoon for medicine, while his room
waite was sitting at his bedside with a
Shakespeare in his hand.
Soon the old gentleman came up
stairs, and, with a noisy knock, thun-
dered out as soon as the door was
opened, Where's Jack?"
Hush! Did you get my telegram"
Telegram! What telegram"
why, about Jacks sickness. He has
been very ILL.,"
Just then Jack opened his eyes and
said family, rs that you. father?" and
then moment later added. '"This
