ally severe, was responsible for much
damage. a large tree on Wayne ave-
nue., between West Market and Will
liam streets, was blown down. In its
descent it broke wires of the Tele-
phone company and electric wires; also
swapping a pole in twain.
The street was obstructed for hours
and the live wires made it extremely
dangerous for pedestrians to pass at
the point. The telephone circuit was
badly impaired and the arc lamps

Mo-, S. students and 5000. These have
been taken at random from the College
Year Book, and are given merely as ex-
amples of a large number of like iHsti
tutions. The writer does not wish to be
understood as making an attack upon
them or upon any other particular col
lege; but, taking these little institu-
lions as a class, he does believe and
assert that no college can be properly
run on a miniature income, and that
the money so expended is needed else
where Yet. aside from those institu-
tons that decline to make any state
ment as to their incomes. there are 81
colleges in the United States that have
not to exceed $4,000 per annum each,
and 1t is probable that at least % of
that number have only $1,000 or less.
What an absurdity 1T is TO try to run
colleges on so little money! How much
better 1t would be il some of these
funds could be combined and more stu
dents cared for at less expense per cap
tia, To my mind much more could be
accomplished If we could blot out half
of these institutions. combine the other
half into a smaller number of larger
and better equipped universities and
colleges and devote the money thus
saved to the kind OF education most
needed. Of course. this lis impractical

figures at hand we are spending SIS a

1t is all out Of proportion. If It We're
possible to get all the figures the diff

A RUNAWAY ENGINE.
The Throttle Was Left Open-Ran Into an
Open Switch and Was Derailed.

Open Switch and Was DeraiIed.
The departure of the east-bound
Northern Pacific train was delayed last
evening by singular accident. Either
the engineer who was to pull the train
out got down from his engine and left
the throttle open, or some one climbed
aboard and opened the trottle in the
engineers absence.
The east-bound overland which
leaves at 9:05 o'clock in the evening,
was made up ready for departure and
the engine stood a few feet ahead of
the train ready to be coupled on when
suddenly 1t began to move ahead. No
one paid any attention to the circum-
stance. as it was supposed the engineer
was aboard, but as the engine con-
tinued to gain speed and failed to come
to a stop, those who understood the
fact that the locomotive was not sup
posed to move until the train should
leave. realized something was wrong
and that the engine was either running
away or had been stolen and the re-
port soon gained general circulation
that some audacious individual had
actually stolen the locomotive and
started for free ride out of town
The Northern Pacific officials. how
ever. deny that such was the case and
said that the circumstance was pure
accident and az a matter of fact neither
the police station nor sheriff's office
was notified. One of the officials in re-
ply to inquiries relative to the matter
said 1t was evident that the engineer
left the throttle open a little through
negligence and that the steam arising
while the engine was left alone. started
it. The only other theory offered was
that some one with malicious intent
climbed aboard and opened the throt-
tie and then jumped off. The engine
ran into an open switch at the head of
the yards and was derailed, and it was
replacing it on the track which caused
the delay in the departure of the over

DANCING AND THEATER-GoINc.
DIR. Lyman Abbott Says They Arc All
Right Within limits.


Rev. DR.. Lyman Abbott, pastor of Ply
mouth church, Brooklyn, preached a ser
mon last Sunday In which he discussed
dancing. treater-going and rich dress In
a manner which has attracted considera-
BILE attention. DIR. Abbott gave a qualified
approval of the things which many pas
tors are always ready to denounce as
evils.
The function of the Christian church.
according to Or. Abbott. Is to take the
world and all material things and make
them seII@ God and humanity. He re-
marked that woman might wear dia-
mends legitlmatcly so long as she did not
attempt TO outshine her neighbors. Fol-
lowing are the principal points In the pas
tors discourse:
There Is not a thing in this world that
has not n proper place in beneficent
creation. Many persons think God made
Il mistake in letting there be any alco-
hol. over against that in spite of the mis-
understanding which may grow out of 1T,
] say that as one of Gods agents we are
to find out its right use.
Applied to activity dancing is one of
the most natural things in the world,
and the Christians duty is not to con-
denim all dancing. but to use the instruc-
tive element of the dance and turn II 10
Gods use and praise.
Taste in dress is right, fashion mostly
wrong. Dressmaking should be an art
not an imitation For woman to wear
the same kind of a bonnet because some
other woman does Is not only untasteful
but unchristian.
/ know this is dangerous sermon
Truth is always dangerous. The only
thing that is safe is patitude.
PatroniZe the theater If 1t sends you
back to life refreshed and invigorated. You
have a right to decide every question BY
