MADE IN the open. There are some dis
eases that are like pickpoc1ets. They
are sneaks. If men only knew it, these
sneaklng diseases are more to be dreaded
than small -pox or yellow fever. The
sneaking disease begins with some slight
disorder of the digestion and sluggish ac-
ton of the bowels. The blood becomes
disordered and the body receives INSULT
cient or improper nutrinent. Enlacia-
ton follows and the sufferer is troubled
with nervous prostitution, brain fag, and
debility, and very likely falls a victim to
that dread destroyer, consumption All
this happens before the sufferer fairly
realizes that he is in danger.
These sneaking diseases that undermine
mans constitution, and rob HIM of his
health are conquered by Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. : It puts
strength into every fiber of the BODY and
replaces the lethargy of sickness with the
buoyancy of health. It is the best blood

Can series Of states, so diverse in size,
population and history, be formed into
unit? So far Australia has been un-
able to present any solution. The great
est difficulty lies in the fiscal policy to
be adopted. Victoria favors free trade;
New South Wales Is protectionist. But
some day federation will be forced upon
them.
The lecturer, dwelling upon this idea
of fede, alton, not only among the colo
nies themselves, but also among the
Anglo-SaXon race as whole, spoke
very eloquently upon Rudyard Kip
ling's work in interpreting Australia to
herself and to the world. To-day, he
says. there is in all the colonies an eff
fort to breathe the spirit of loyalty and
love into the Australians heart.
Surely in these days of movement to-
ward Capitalization, when the French
have not forgotten Napoleons dream
of a world empire, and Germany has
been united by Bismarck, and the
English-speaking people are talking Of
international arbitration, 1t is possible
for Australia to fall into line and take
her place in the sisterhood of states. If
the Greek states, so different in so
many ways, could meet on a common
level in the Olympian games, surely it
is possible that her race unity shall
take the place of national fellowship,
and the whole Anglo-Saxon people will
stand unitedly for what it has ever
stood-self- government, justice and
courage as against all others.

4 BON FIRE ON THE CAMPUS.
Students Last Evening Celebrated Yale
Forensic Victory Over Harvard.

Students Last Evening Celebrated Yale's
Forensic Victory Over Harvard.
When the news was received at the
campus last night that Yale had won
the debate with Harvard at Cambridge,
the inhabitants of the quadrangle and
the outlying hordes of Yalensians pro-
ceeded to give vent to their joy over
the victory by an enormous bonfire,
which was built on the site Of Old
North Middle. In few minutes after
the news was received a crowd of hun
dreds of students had gathered and
soon after bonfire was proposed, for
aging parties came trooping in with
anything in the line Of combuStibleS
that could be found to make a blaze.
Barrels, boxes, doors, blinds and Win
dow sashes went to build the pile and
soon bowling mob was dancing and
yelling about the huge blazing heap.
Officers Donnelly and Wiser, the lynx
eyed guardians Of the campus, and in
cidentally of the law, were on hand to
prevent any compus buildings being
added to the blaze and as the later the
foragers came in with doors and other
detached portions Of buildings these
sleuths rescued the valuable articles
from the blaze and stood guard over
them. The jollification continued until
after midnight
