TRINITY COLLEGE,
Plans Completed and Site for the
BuildinE Purchased.

Bui1ding Purchased.
Plans for the erection of Trinity College
have been completed, and the Sisters of
Notre Dame, who have charge of the en-
terprise, are anxious that work on the
main building shall be commenced at the
earliest possible moment. 1t is Thought
however. that operations will be delayed
until fall and that the foundation only
will be put in before cold weather. The
work on the building proper will be COM
menced early in the spring Of 1898, and 1t
is expected the building will be ready for
occupancy by next fall.
Mother Julia, provincial of the Sisters of
Notre Dame of Namur, who is in charge
of the big undertaking, has already pur-
chased the ground upon which the seven
buildings are to be erected. This ground
comprises twenty acres of land Just south
CT the Soldiers Home grounds, between
1st street extended and Lincoln avenue
Michigan avenue will be the northern
boundary of the property, and an avenue
10 connect Lincoln avenue and LIST street
will run directly south of the grounds, so
that the twenty acres will be triangular in
shape. and VIII not adjoin any other prop
erty. The objects of the college, as set
forth in a circular issued by Mother Julia
as printed in The Star few days ago, are
given as follows:
Trinity College is intended to be the
complement of the Catholic academies ami
iisH SclibOlS THROUGHOUT America. CanUl-
dates for admission must have certificates
Of graduation from such schools or they
will be required TO pass an examination be-
fore entering equivalent to such graduation
We offer three courses of study, each ex-
tending through four years-a classical
course, leading to the degrees of bachelor
and master of arts; the scientific course
leading to the degrees in science and the
course in literature. Graduation in all the
courses will lead TO the degree of Phi. d.
1t was the original intention of the pro-
noters of the enterprise to have the main
building. or Hall of Letters" constructed
of cream enameled brick, but 1t Is likely
that there will be change in this arrange
ment, and that stone instead of brick will
be used. This change was suggested by the
architect, Louis Durang of Philadelphia.
The sisters are already at work prepar-
ing list of questions for the examinations
for admission to the college. The examina-
ton centers. and there will probably be
three or four In each state, will be an
nounced in a few days.

COMMISSIONER WIGHT'S PLAN.
Would Abolish Police Trial Board and
Transfer It's Duties.

For some time past Commissioner Wight
has been anxious to abolish the police trial
board. He does not reflect upon the officers
composing the board, for he believes they
do remarkably well under the circum-
stances, but he IS opposed to the system
which imposes upon police officers judicial
duties, responsibilities which do not come
within the purview of poiceman's call
ing. Late yesterday afternoon ne sub
mitted to his colleagues a plan which he
believes will remedy existing evils. 1t Is
to have Prosecuting Attorney James l..
Pugh sit in judgment upon these cases and
direct prosecutions. In this way it is be-
lieved much useless testimony will be
thrown out and considerable time saved.
Then it will abolish the trial board, and
give the members thereof more opportunity
to attend to their regular police duties.

FREE HIGH SCHOOL LAW rs
NULLiFIED.
Decision OF the supreme Court Causes
Friends OF the Law to Fee, Very blue
Non- Residents Must Hereafter Ray Tu-
ition-Oth,r news OF y, Nebraska.

The recent decision Of the supreme
court declaring the free high school
law invalid, caused n deep blue cloud
to settle over the office of the state
superintendent of public instruction.
The law has been in working order for
about " years and among those in
tcrcsted in educational matters 1t was
considered in u very favorable light.
The decision of the court renders the
law ineffective on IL tcchnicality which
exists in a goodly per cen of the laws
on the statutes as they now stand.
The case decided was the board Of ed
ucation of Aurora W. Nellie Moses,
who applied for tuition in the Aurora
high school in accordance with the
provisions of the law. The opinion is
by Commissioners Ryan, extracts from
which are self explanatory.
The act of 1895 so amended the ex-
isting law ms To permit any person OF
school age having a certain educational
proficiency. though living outside the
district, to receive instruction at the
high school. This was clearly amend
atory to the extent indicated and yet
neither in the title nor in the body of
the latter act is there any reference
whatever to the section amended.
Neither by the title of the act of 1895
nor by its provisions vas there any ref
erence to the law in existence which
stood between herself and the exer-
else Of the privilege demanded. The
In "a nf tsur xs,as mot "A rntnnlafss not. INF
was amendatory Of the law which de-
MED ron-residents Of Aurora, the right
to rece We the benefits of its high school
education.
The fundamental law of the state
requires all the parts of an amended
law to be Incorporated I'm the net and
the old Jaw so amended To be repealed.
IL said constitutional provision is dis
regarded or not complied with in the
amendment Of the prior act. the new
act is void. The other provision OF
chapter 60 of the session laws of 1S9,
are dependent upon that which is open
to the objection above cited and n the
invalid portion without question formed
an inducement to the passage of the
entire act it must be declared uncon'
stitutional and void
During the school year OF 1893 ant
1896. the records show that 2,13O pu
pills took advantage of the law and re
ceived free tuition. During the coming
year the signs indicate that the mum
Der would have been largely increased
The state superintendent has been re
ceiving applications almost daily To-
blanks to issue to students who wisl
to take advantage of the Law. In thu
face Of the recent decision, non-resi
dent pupils will henceforth be forced
to pay tuition when attending high
schools.

queer, Showers Arrested.

A secret service agent, assisted by
the Omaha police, arrested three al

There were ninety-four lead dollars

money had been polished or gilded as
