DEFIANCE IO PROH|BS
Princeton Alumni lndorSe Or.
Shields.
AS TO PRINCETON INN
President Patton Answers Ill
Advised Persons.

New York, Jan. 21.-With ringing cheers
that told their enthusiastic conviction, 300
alumni CT Princeton university, at their
annual banquet last night, cast defiance
in the teeth of those who criticised the use
NJ liquors in the famous Princeton inn.
Rev. DR.. Charles Woodruff Shields VINO
resigned from the Presbyterian church
because of the concentrations heapeo up
on him for signing the application for the
inns license, was the especial object OF
the graduates approval. At every men
ton of his name they sprang TO their LeeI
and cheered him until, from his seat at
the guests table, he bowed nervous aC-
acknowledgements.
And President Francis L. Patton in
dorsed the graduates fully. In his speech
he emphatically condemned prohloltloh
and was heartily cheered for his stano.
The annual dinner of the Princeton
club draws alumni from near and far, and
the banquet room at Delmonicos was
crowded. The colors of Princeton were
largely in evidence.
AS the spirits of the men warmed, the
representatives of the various classes
gave vent to their class cheers from 80
20 81. The rafting tiger hiss boom
rang out separately and in discordant
concert.
Charles w. McAlpine rose to his feet
and proposed three cheers for DR.. Shields.
They were given with all the lung power
of scores of old football rooters." Thus
the alumni of Princeton enthusiastically
went on record as opposed to any attempt
to interfere with the right Of Princeton
men to drink malt and spirituous liquors
within the shadows of the university
building.
President Patton's speech dealt with the
ideals of the university and criticisms
freely made of her policy. His remarks
concerning the relations of the Presby-
terrain church and the university aroused
great enthusiasm.
In regard to the Princeton inn contro-
versy, President Patton said:
at shall not indulge in harsh language,
though I am tempted to be indignant
when I think how good men have been
maligned and pure motives have been
mpugned. I wish to turn to good account
the criticisms that we have received, ILL
advised as many of them have been.
The friends who gave US advice do not
know our difficulties and 1 cannot stop
to explain them. But one thing is sure
prohibition will not stop drinking in
Princeton; 1t will only increase the trade
in corkscrews."
The whole room rose at the word and

COAL MINING CONFERENCE
Scale Committees Report the Present
Matter in Hand.

Chicago, Jan. N.-The interstate btu
minous coal operators and miners confer
ence assembled today with the expecta-
ton that, after five days of waiting, some
definite report would be on hand from the
scale committe. This expectation was not
altogether disappointed.
When the convention came to order, a
messenger from the scale committee in
formed the delegates that the conferees
desired a recess taken until II o'clock,
when. they said, a communication would
be presented.
Hon. II. L. Chapman, of the Ohio oper-
ators, stated. however, that his state
wished to hold another conference, so that
nothing could be gained by meeting be-
fore the regular hour-2 o. m. A motion
to adjourn til 1.-The later hour prevailed
The 500 delegates were in a feverish
state of excitement when the recess was
taken. There were all sorts of rumors
afioat regarding the matters discussed by
the scale committee. There was little
doubt, however, but that the miners
would benefit largely by the new condi-
tons and that the operators would settle
the long-standing sQuabbie over differen-
tials.
1t was this afternoon suggested that the
convention could be dissolved, and reor-
ganized under new rules. But such plan
could be carried out only with the unani-
nous consent of the convention.
Chicago, Jan. 21-The joint scale COM
mittee reported TO the interstate joint
convention of coal miners and operators
this afternoon that they were unable to
agree upon any of he questions voted on.
1t was voted that the report of the COM
mittee be accepted and the proposition
embodied in the report taken up by the
convention and considered seriatim. The
principal feature was the 56-cent basis in
the competitive field for screened coal.
The convention resolved itself into a
committee of the whole and took up the
principal proposition on the report of the
| scale committee that the scale be based
upon mines run throughout the competi-
tive field.

Craux added that the United States can
not object to any increase in the duties
because they themselves impose duty OF
70 francs on olive oil while we only ask
a duty of from 20 to % francs.
NJ Boucher, in reply, said he was true
to protectionist doctrines and recognized
the danger to French oil works from this
new American competition, but the gov
eminent, he added, had not yet deliber-
ated upon the matter, and therefore he
could not make any promises. Moreover,
he could only speak with the greatest re-
serve, owing to the negotiations now
proceeding with the United States.
Continuing NJ. Boucher remarked:
Nevertheless the question of protection
which is urged by such an influential del
egation merits serious attention, and the
government will not oppose notifications
of customs duties which the chamber may
be disposed to discuss"

word yesterday that Rev. Willard X

the call from the Alma church and
would be present to preach Sunday
To many DR. Spencer's decision comes
great surprise as such abilities as he
possesses would command much larger

tluenced him TO some extent, however,
towards acceptance. DR.. Spencer's past
services have been many and of great
value. He is now president OF the

A Bad Runaway.

A gentleman by the name Of James
Toy, who resides at Elm Hall, was in
Alma Oh Tuesday of this week OH busi-
ness and drove team owned by Albert
Morton of the same place. When about
one mile west of town on his way home
the team became unmanageable and ran
away. He kept the team i'll the road
and passed two other teams whose driv-
ers had turned them out by the side, but
they finally met another team whose
driver did not have the presence of mind
TO get his rig out of the way and coll
lision was the result. Mr.. Toy was
thrown out and when picked up was in
sensible. The team was put into John
Sullivan's barn and Mr.. Toy was
brought to town and his injuries were
dressed. It was found that he had re-
ceived a bad cut on the back Of his head
andIthat his left ear was terribly lacer-
ated. Drs. Bagley and McClinton dress
ed. his wounds and Mr.. Toy was enabled
to return home on the evening train.
The team was left at Mr.. Sullivan's un-
til the next day when the owner came
and took them home. The horses were
not injured in the least.

AT COURT.

Those who think that the life OF
a lady about court is necessarily
that of a butterfly, may be surprised
to learn that cleverness with the
needle is an adjunt demanded of the
maids of honor at the court of Rus
STA, to be of use in cases of emer-
gency when in attendance on the
czarina. That they have also to read
we'll aloud and to stand for any
length of time goes without saying,
but it would hardly be believed that
in order to pass into the imperial
presence Russia maids of honor have
to obtain a diploma for cooking!
Such is, however, the case. In some
imperial menages, too, the maid Of
honor has to compose the everyday
dinner menu. And in all this train
ing there underlies the teaching that
an empress or grand duchess Of
Russia is a parsonage of divine
vocation. Having passed through
all this ordeal, the would-be maid Of
honor, at the age Of Is or II, is
presented to the empress, and II
finding favor in the imperial eyes,
is appointed a demoiselle d'honneu
passing subsequently through the
various grades mentioned. From
this body of maidens, too, the vari-
Gus grand duchesses, with the
czarina's approval, also make their
e1ections.-Chicago Times--Herald.
