WIFI THERE BE AN .iCCIDENT?
 Some time ago 1t was plain that Yale couldn't row. Everybody said so, and everybody also said that it wasn't at to row this year. The crew wasn't be- ing trained enough, it was being train ed too much, and it was being trained in the wrong way. We haven't heard much about the matter lately, but we believe the crew is able to be out and has reached such state of efficiency that it can get over the water without going clear under 1t, as an Irishman might say. But bad reports come from Harvard. There is a fear there that Lehman is overtraining the crew. Two of it's members have lately been obliged to give up work and others are in condition to cause anxiety. The word goes out that although an excellent coach the Englishman is a poor trainer and liable to bring his men to the mark knowing how to row, but in no physical condition to apply what they know. It Is due to Lehman to say that he laughs at the talk says that his men are in good condition and that there need be no fear of anything but accidents.
 Accidents" is good. Harvard has had 0 long series of melancholy acci- dents in her rowing contests with Yale. She is justified in having a fear of accidents, however hopeful she may be.

INDIAN so1DfERs nE4p NO GOOD

INDIAN SOLDIERS HEJP NO GOOD.
 Although it has been pretty we'll set tied that an Indian mustn't necessarily
 be dead in order to be useful 1t has also been decided that an Indian can't
 be made into good soldier of the regu- lar army. So the last of the Indian companies, now stationed at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, will be disbanded at the end of this month.
 Thus ends an interesting and, at one time, promising experiment.. It seem ed reasonable to expect that warlike Indians would make good soldiers. The Indians themselves took kindly to the idea and number of infantry com panies composed of Indians and com manded by white officers were organ ized at western posts. They seemed to take considerable pride in their con nection with the army, and there seems to have been little fear that their racial
 sympathies would make them disloyal to their colors But the white mans
 discipline and methods of warfare were
 so foreign to their natures and customs | that 1t was soon found to be impossible to make good soldiers of them. So l company after company was disbanded
 until only the one at Fort Sill was left. This company Is composed of Apache | warriors captured with Geronimo. They | were prisoners of war, but the depart
 ment thought that enlisting them uni forming them and drilling them might
 make them forget their real position and gradually tame them. The braves didn't seem to get enthusiastic over army life and never made especially good soldiers, but the wisdom of the war department treatment of them is shown by the fact that these fifty hos l tile savages are now fit to be employed | as government scouts, will be retained as such in the service after the com pany's disbandment, and will do duty, during the present period of peace, as Indian police.
 It will be interesting to watch the Indian policemen all working hard for promotion and using all the "pull' they can get to that end But perhaps they will not be like other policemen.

and almost blinded him with its Veloci- ty While the frost in the air seemed like hail pellets striking him In the face. There was little time for thought, but even in the few seconds there was, Sweetwood wondered what the end would be.
 Fortunately for Sweetwood. and the only reason that he is alive to relate his experience, the log on which he was perched was a large, smooth one, and glded along comparatively easy, with little turning, and never once snagging on any protruding substance, Down, down went log and rider, and in less time than it takes to tell 1t the glim- mering eXpanse of the Susquehanna burst Into view. Although nearly un- conscious, Sweetwood remembers giv- ing one nasty glance toward the river and noted the fact that 1t was compara- lively clear of logs at that point, and the next thing he knew he was plunged into about eight feet of water. Contra ry to his expectation of being crushed to death, he was unhurt, save the sick ening sensation of the thrilling ride and the shock sustained by his sudden plunge into the river.
 | When he struck the water he was still on top of the log, and went under with 1t, but when he arose to the surface he was alone and within few yards of the opposite shore. With some little diffi- culty he pulled himself out of the water, and after recovering to some ex- tent the use of his faculties, viewed with wonderment the scene of his ride and shudderingly thought of his narrow escape. In his descent he supposed the entire trail of one hundred logs was fol- lowing swiftly after the one he was on, and when plunged into the river he ex- pected to be ground to pieces with the

THE ADYERrISING C4RNIYlL

The councilmen last evening concur red with the aldermen in action con- cerning the gorgeous street-sprinkllng advertisement, and being finally back ed with enough law the Board of Finance will now consider the matter. It can make either of two reports-one that the advertisement was legal but not economical, and the other that it was neither legal nor economical, There will probably not be even a minority report that it was economical, And if it is reported legal perhaps some public-spirited citizen will be willing to ask the Supreme court for its views. It is so well settled that such advertising is not economical that it is decidedly important to know whether it is legal.

Parker showed that the United States has the largest proportion of married people of any in the world, thlrty-siX in every one hundred. It is only in few States that the number of divorced persons is appreciable, there being one divorced male to each one hundred in New Hampshire, and one divorced female to each in New Hampshire, Connecticut, Florida, Utah, and Nevada.

In considering the question of a pleated skirt remember that the pleat- ing will cost about $3.50, and that no power on earth can ever unpleat 1t, Accordion pleats are lovely, but they take a lot of material, they fly around, they demand good figure, and in the end are extremely expensive, for the pleat lasts so much longer than the fashion for it does, In all this there should be ample consolation for not being able to have an accordeon pleat- ed skirt if you really cannot afford it. If you can afford one, run right off and buy it, it's as pretty thing as the market shows.
 There is a joke that goes with that sort of skirt. A very rich girl whose father had only just tumbled Into mon ey, and who had never before in all her life shopped with free hand, was buying skirts. "We have something very handsome in accordeon plate" in- sinuated the clerk, falling into com mon mispronunciation. The shopper looked scornful "Accordeon platel Oh, don't think I should care to wear plate. Have you nothing In solid &C., cordeon?"
 woman with fancy for belts can have a considerable collection of them nowadays. It would include number of kid ones, which may be of all colors. There would be at least one hand- some 1eweled belt, pointed and dropping in front with handsome heavy jeweled buckle, another of solid silve weave, and any little valuable Etruscan or Moorish affair that struck the collec- tors fancy Some of the handsomest belts are being made with links detach- able, so that collar effects, sleeve but tons and an extra button or so with a buckle thrownin may be available when the separate jewels are not all on duty together at the belt.

NOT 1S BID AS TT MIGHT BE.

It is not usual for students of social problems in this country to take a cheerful view of divorce, but MT. R. Wayne Parker, of Newark, New Jersey, who has been connected with commits sions seeking uniformity in divorce laws, shows that the situation as re- gards divorces is not as melancholy as it has appeared to be. In addressing the Liberal Club of Buffalo recently on the question of divorce in the United States, he said that he had concluded an inquiry on that subject with a feel ing of pleasure. Although it is true he continued. that the legislation of mary of the States allows the family bond to be broken for> trivial reasons, that the administration of these laws is corrupt and careless, and that the jurisdiction claimed in many States to grant divorces to non-residents is a travesty on justice, yet there is no country where the marriage bond has greater force than in ours. or where purity has been held in more regard, and there is no time in our own history

FASHION NOTES.
For and Against Pieats.

For and Against Pleats.
 Accordion pleated skirts are again in fashion and are finding more endorsers than one would expect them to have. Worn with the right kind of a bodice they are unquestionably pretty, but af- ter having said so much there is noth- ing left in their favor but their sudden stylishness. Seen to the best possible advantage was the pleated skirt the artist puts here, because the bodice above 1t was tastefully planned to set it off. Porcelain blue barege was the material, and the bodice was simple blouse. Over this were double revers, lace over satin, and panlers of like con- struction extended below the belt on to the skirt Belt and collar were scar let Japanese silk.

Port wine may be made from barley, so the British consul at Naples declares. The barley, he says, is first matted, then the bacilli of port wine are intro duced into the mead, where they fecun- date incontinently, and transform it from immature beer into the richest port. When the animalculae have done their work, they can be sterilized, a sufficient stock of microbes being pre- served in the laboratory for further use.

The old controversy over the Bible in the schools has broken out afresh in West Virginia It started in a court action in Marion county where it is sought to enjoin the school commission CTS against permitting the reading of the Bible in the schools. In defence of the Bible the Junior Order of American Mechanics has rallied, regarding the legal assault as an attack upon one of the objects of it's association. It fears also that if the case is lost it will be from all the schools In the state. It has summoned the National Council of the order to its assistance, will employ the best legal talent it can obtain, and an- nounces a determination if defeated in the local courts to carry the case to the Supreme Court of the United States.
