Chicago, Feb. 16.-Twelve young men.
comprising half of the senior class of
the law department OF the normal school
at Valparaiso, Ind, have deserted their
alma mater and are now pursuing
their studies at the Chicago Law school.
This sudden change among the students
has broken out in the Indiana school.
The trouble began few days ago.
when the members of the senior class
of the law school demanded that rep
resentative for the coming Decoration
day exercises be selected from their
number. The faculty did not favor the
attitude of the seniors. so they say,
and at a private meeting decided upon
a representative who was not a member
Of that class.
The seniors entered a protest 1t was
ignored. Then one of them declared
that he would leave the school, and
came to Chicago without informing the
faculty OF his departure. When he ar
rived here he secured admission 10 the
Chicago Law school. Then train from
Valparaiso brought eleven law students
to Chicago. and seeking their partner OF
the senior class they also entered the
Chicago school. All of the rebellious
seniors appeared at the law class. and
they say that an equal number OF the
normal school who sympathize with
them will arrive in Chicago within a
few days

Gold Mining In San Francisco.

For over II years a gold mine has
been worked right in the city of San
Francisco. How much gold has been
taken out none but the two miners
themselves can say. One of them is sup
posed to be on his deathbed, and the
other one disappeared on the day that
his partner had to be taken to the hos
pital and the secret of their mine be-
came generally known to the commu-
nifty.
Nelson Shoots, the discoverer of the
lead, found the mine over II years ago
while trying to locate the fountain of
the gold dust found along the beach.
He was practical miner at the time
and we'll versed in all the secrets Of get
ting all the gold possible out of refrac-
tory ores.
That he succeeded in doing this in
his Ingleside mine there is no question,
for not only did he make good living
during the II years, but he paid S., 600
damages once for injuring the Spring
valley water main while blasting. He
and his partner lost large sums Of money
at the race tracks, and they were known
as ''spenders" among the resorts i'll the
western side of the city. All the while
they passed as hermits, with barely
enough to live on.-San Francisco Call.
