The 1S9G-97 catalogue of the Univer-
slty of Colorado has Just been pub

chief educational Institution of the
Rocky Mountain region which justiiies
thrill of pride In the heart of every

II shows that the attendance has
more than doubled In the last four
years. and that the Institution now
stands according to the rating by the
German Year Book OF the educational

the Ave leading state universities.

clnl support that the state has been
able 10 give II. argues a condition OF
excellence and enthusiasm In Its man.

duty, Its maintenance on the highest

Ms II does. upon the state for lie sup
port, every effort should be put forth
10 enable II to continue In It's present
rapid progress until Colorado shall
possess the brightest educational star
between New England and the Pacific
coast. Many people throughout the
state do not realize that In tlIs instltii.

Athens, Feb. S.-The Cretan commit
tee here has issued proclamation ad-
dressed to the people Of Greece. calling
for assistance from all free men.
The latest news from Canea is to the
effect that fighting outside the city con-
tlnues, and that n provisional Cretan
government Is being formed. The
fires, which We're started as result
of the conflicts between Mussulmnns
and Christians, have been eXtin-
guished. BY far the larger portion Of
the town Is. however, a heap OF ruins.
A dispatch from Canca received this
evening says that the Christians about
Canea have hoisted the Greek flag,
have proclaimed the union OF that
island with Greece and have invited
the king Of Greece to take possession
of 1t.
The Greclan squadron arriving at
Canea did not salute the Turkish
squadron. Advices say that the Mus
sulmans are preparing massacre at
Retimo. The representatives OF some
of the powers have expressed to the
Greek government surprise that she
has. sent war ships to the Island OF
Crete.
Three thousand people took part yes
terday evening in manifestation In
front of the ministry of marine. There
were continued cries of Long Live
Crete" Long Live the Union"
1t is thought possible that n minis
terlal crisis will result from the man.

The announcement that Prince
George, second son of the King of
Greece, will command the torpedo fleet
which is now in readiness to start fer
Crete to join the Greek squadron, has
added strength to the rumors that
Greece will insist upon n union with
Crete.

that government scholarships In schools. ly-
Gees and academies shall only be given In

living children. and that all government
posts, unless requiring special qualifications.
or fayors, like tobacco licenses. concessions
In the colonies. etc, shall be similarly given.
and that promotions and allowances be reg
ulated according TO the number OF children.
The proposal is meeting with serious con
slderation.
Dr. Bertillon. early during the present
month, said that the result OF the census IL
simply appalling and that unless mirncu-
lons change for the better takes place.
