STUDENTS SCRAP
Too Much Nonsense May Result In
Expulsion

CHICAGO, June 23.-A bloody melee
on the battlements Of Ryerson Physical
Laboratory,in which heads were thump-
ed and backs belabored, put an abrupt
end to the senior class exercises at the
University of Chicago.
It was Senior Day, and when the flag
Of that class was flung to the breeze 1t
was signal for several hard battles
between its defenders and small army
Of under class men. The flag was saved
from capture, but the face of President
James Scott Brown Of the Senior Class,
was badly battered in the conflict, and
Harry Coy was thrown down the stairs
OF the Ryerson tower and picked up at
the bottom with a dislocated shoulder.
Many other students were more or less
hurt.
An Investigation of the fight is to be
made by the University authorities and
students believe that 1t may result in
the expulsion of some of the leaders in
the conflict.

ENGLAND AND AMERICA.
Tho Prejudices Which Exist Between the
Two Countries.


zEAe Prejudices Which Exist Between the
Two Countries.
1t is a lamentable thing that many
Americans lose much of the pleasure
MT English travelling by greatly ex-
saggerating the differences in char
saeter between the two nations and
by assuming that the English, as
such, are more reserved, cold and
unsocial than Americans. During
three visits at long intervals to this
gountry, and while assooiating with
all sorts and conditions of men,"
have never been able to find any
authority for this impression. Haw-
thorne told the whole story when
he pointed out that any mutual dis
like between the two nations was
collective and not individual; that
the individuals were apt to frater-
nize well enough, but that each re-
tanned vague prejudice against the
whole body of the other nation.
English people are apt to like the
Americans whom they know, but to
nstain the impression-no doubt
sometimes justifable-that there
are great many others whom, if
they knew, they should not like,
and this is much the way in which
Americans feel about English men
and women. The distrust is generic,
while the liking is individual. Per-
haps it would be pleasanter if the
dlstrust were nonexistent, but it is
something to feel that each may do
something to overcome it and to
help later travellers by making the
liking more general. It is true that
on the continent of Europe English
people are or were apt to appear at
disadvantage; to regard themselves
as being sheep in the midst of pos
slble wolves, which, indeed, they
often are. But on their own ground
the instinct of personal hospitality
is traditional, and they are especial
~ disposed to regard Americans as
friends-a confidence often mis-
placed, regret to say, among the
alnscrupulous Or ungracious.
The very fact that such marked
distinctions of rank exist among
themselves makes them incline to-
ward Americans, who offer no such
axtreme complications. Indeed it
sometimes happens that an Ameri-
can lady, like bride, may be given
precedence over others simply be-
cause, having no definite rank, she
may as wei be put at the head
as at the foot, especially if she
zs personally attractive. In truth
the fixed order of English soci-
'ety, if occasionally a social con-
venience, is also yoke, and there
1s sometimes positive Willingness
to relax it and act as if there were
no such thing. Just as in English
country houses the almost excessive
formality of the dinner is balanced
by the utter informality of the
1A<AASA4AAeAGLS w AO4O l1l0 E6IYdulS are
excluded, and every man guest
Jumps up and gets whatever he
1'aeases from the sideboard, so Eng
11sh people seem to have rather a
hiking for the somewhat novel flavor |
af Americans, and readily pardon it
when the order of precedence proves
"a matter too complex for our intel
4ects to fathom. And it is also to be
remembered that the society which
Ms apt to attract American visitors
the most is that of English authors
Kind artists, who usually have very |
a1ffae connection with the order of |
EnHcedence in any Wallpapers |

TIE cay OF The LOON.

How weird to you in the light of the moon,
My little lads is the cry of the loon,
When quiet lies over valley and hill,
And wood and mere are uncannlly Stllll
But listen, ladsi There is something to know,
A tale oft told in an age long ago
By wigwam fires that no torch can renew,
A tale that ends with the saying, tKwemoo
El-komik- too-ajul Gloocapal'-
The loon is calling on Glooskapl
Glooskap was God to the untutored mind
Lit by the lights that in nature we find
That heard this tale and believed it throughout
AS something ''twere sacrilegious to doubt
And once he saw from the marge of a lake =
A flock of looms DER the wide water make
Thrice for the land, as in circles they few.
So runs the tale with the saying, "Kwemoo
El-komik- too-ajul Gloocapal-
The loon is calling on Glooskapl
He saw them come who approached him and
spake:
BE near to us who have sought after theel
Be near to us who thy servants would bel''
Nodding he said, '"I will teach one and all
What shall know as a prayerful call.
And so he taught what is heard, lads, by you,
And hence arose that old saying, "Kwemoo
El-komik- too-a jul Gloocapal =
The loon is calling on Glooskapl
Glooskap was good, and nethinl1s you will find
If you, my lads, keep this legend in mind
That faroff cry, which is only prayer,
Will sound less weird in the pale, moony air
Or makes less wild and less grewsome the night
When all it still over valley and height.
But, howso'er it may be, lads, with you,
Where'er you hear that long cry say 'Kwemoo
El-komik- too-ajul Gloocapal''-
The loon is calling on Glooskapl
