THE STATE UNIVERSITY.
Enrolment in Excess OF all Previous
Years Interest In the Work.

Moscow, Nov. 8.-(Correspondence
to Statesman.l The enrolment at the
state university has reached zoe, "a figure
considerably in excess Of the registra-
ton at the same date in previous years.
Aside from this gratifying increase the
university authorities are delighted
with the large enrolment in the college
classes, and a marked decrease in the
lowest year Of the preparatory school.
The college students number 81, d.
vided as follows: Graduates 2. seniors
y, juniors IL. sophomores 10, freshman
Al, The highest enrolment in the col
lege last year was 81. The enrolment
in the preparatory school is l25, 81 being
in the third year class, 80 in the second
and 3S in the first year. In 1895, with
like total enrolment, there we're 81 in
the first year class.
Students are In attendance from Ada,
Canyon, Owyhee, Washington, Lemhi,
Idaho, Nez Perez, Latah, Shoshone and
Kootenai counties.
Marked interest Is shown this year in
the mining engineering course in the
college, which has been elected by II
students, an. increase OF 300 to 400 per
cent.
Last year the agricultural expert
mental station sent out samples OF sugar
beet seed 10 over 200 farmers in differ

He was taken before Judge Bahrs,
Wednesday, and was sentenced TO be
hanged to-day, Friday, between sunrise
and the hour Of noon. His Indifference
and apparent unconcern at the short
time given him, as reported in the ape

was defiant to the end.

The Senate After March 4, 1899.

Thirty states are TO choose Senators
before March 4th, 1899. One, Mississip-
pi, has already chosen MIR. Money, and
three, Ohio, Virginia and Maryland,
have chosen the Legislature which will
elect. In these four states there will
probably be gain Of one for the Repu b
lica MS by the defeat Of German. OF the
other twenty-six Senators going out ten
are Republicans, twelve Democrats,
three silver Republicans and one Pop
ulist. Legislatures TO choose the success
sors Of these will be elected next year.
The Senate now contains forty-four
Republicans out Of a membership Of
eighty-nine, there being vacancy from
Oregon. They are likely TO lose no
seats unless 1t be those in Washington
and Wyoming to Populists or silver Re-
publicans. They are likely to gain five
from Wisconsin, New York, North Da-
kota, West Virginia and New Jersey,
and may gain five more from Indiana,
Oregon, Nebraska, California and Del
eware. Al worst they should have
forty-eight Senators, and they may
have fifty-four. 1t Is safe to count upon
about fifty, II conditions do no change.
This would give them an effective work

TO carry out the currency reform Icgis-
