A FRESHMAN NATURALLY.
The Fresh Harvard Student Who Deco

Cambridge, Mass, June S.-A special
committee which was named last week
by President ]. H. Perkins of the junior
class at Harvard to investigate the
recent painting of John Harvard statue,
reported tonight that special in his first
year had confessed. He acknowledged that
he decorated the statue with red paint on
the night of May 80, in celebration of
Harvard S victory over Princeton on the
diamond. The committee refused to make
public the name of the guilty student,
but acknowledged that he was requested
to leave the university which he agreed to
do. Two members of the Freshman class
whose names the committee also withheld
are also implicated and when confronted
withthe accumulated evidence they handed
in their designations. A fourth man, it is
said, may also be asked to explain what
connection he had with the affair.

Opening of the Annual State Convention
in That City.

| Rockland, June 9.-The annual conyen.
ton of the Universalist church of Maine
began its three days session in this CITY
| this morning.
| There were three hundred and fifty
delegates present and more came pouring
in on every train and boat It bids fair
to be as large a convention as has ever
been held by Maine Universalists.
The weather was beautiful and every
thing was suspicious for a successful
meeting.
The church in which the meetings will
be held was handsomely decorated
The convention opened at 10 O'Clock
with prayer by Rev. W. M. Kimmell OF
Portland, followed by an address of wei,
come by Hon. W. T. Cobb, to which the
president, DIR. George W. Twitchel OF
Augusta, responded.
| At IL O'Clock, Rev. Selden Gilbert, D.
D., OF Machias, delivered the opening
sermon.
| The afternoon session of the Maine
| Universalist convention was largely at
| tended. The first hour was spent in de-
| votlonal services conducted by Rev. @. S.
| Weaver of Orono. 1t was a meeting OF
marked interest. AT three O'Clock Rev
b. j. Rhodes of Fairfield preached the
Occasional sermon from Phil. 4, s.
Discussing the question, eff we give ur
Christianity what shall we put into its
place" The closing hour was devoted to
various reports Of com mittees all of which
were interesting and full of encourage
ment. From the report of the executive
committee the following facts appear
| Three new churches have been built
during the year, one at Kingsfeld, Rev

all provided for; one at Dover and Fox

a cost of $500; and one at Machias, Rev

supreme Lodge Unite workmen.

Milwaukee, Wis, June s.-The twenty
fifth stated meeting of the Supreme lodge,
Ancient Order of United Worknen of the
United States and Canada opened in
Milwaukee today with all the supreme
officers and members of the standing COM
mittees as well as about 160 delegates
present. 1t is understood there is an un-
usually large amount of legislative work
in hand including final action upon a
move made by the grand lodge of the Or
der in Ontario to secede from the SUI
preme body and doing away with all
name and reference to the supreme lodge,
conduct a grand lodge of its own in the
Dominion, independent of the order in
the states.
This, 1t is claimed by the supreme Off
GERS, would be tantamount to open rebel
lion and strong efforts are begin made to
avoid such results. Action upon the
matter was postponed by the grand body
in Canada until the matter could be
fully heard before the supreme body in
its Milwaukee session at this time.ss&

peal for the maintenance of the treaty. He
said that Pearl Harbor was coded to the
united States in exchange for the conces-
sion to Hawaiian sugar by this country
and declared that it's abrogation at this
time would be an act of bad faith. b
The caucus instructed the finance COM
mittee to report new sugar schedule
The text of the new sugar schedule is as
follows:

in color, tank bottoms, syrups of cane
juice, melada. concentrated melada, con-
crete and concentrated molasses, testing
by the polariscope not above rs degrees,
one cent per pound and forever additional

gree in proportion; and on sugar above
Number Is. Dutch stand ard in color and
on all sugar which has gone through a
process of refining, one cent and ninety
five one hundredths of one cent per
pound; molasses testing above 40 degrees
and not above Sc degrees, three cents per
gallon; testing Sc degrees and above six
cents per gallon; sugar DRAWINGS and
sugar sWeepings shall be subject to duty
as molasses or sugar as the case may be,
according to polariscopic test; sugars,
tank bottoms, syrups, cane juice, or beet
juice, melada, concentrated melada and
concentrated molasses, the product of any
country which pays, directly or Indirect
ly, a bounty on the export thereof,
whether imported directly and in Con
dition as exported herefrom, or otherwise
shall pay in addition to the foregoing a
duty equal to such bounty or SO much
thereof as may be in excess of any tax
collected by such country on such ex-
ported articles, or upon the beet or cane
from which it was produced. A new
paragraph is added reading as follows:
That the duty on naolasses clayed, jog;
gerry and other sugars testing not above 81
degrees by the poIariscopic shall be one
tenth of one cent per pound less than
those imposed by the preceding paragraph
on the corresponding tests of sugar. -
The abrogation of the Hawaiian treaty
was discussed but no conclusion was
reached when the caucus adjourned.
Maine Senators Want Some Changes.

GUS senators and members who want
