BLOOMINGTON, Ind, March i2.-There
is much indignation here over the report
from Anderson regarding the action of the
State W. c. r. U. as to the alleged use of
liquor by students of Indiana University
and that wines We're frequently used at fra
ternity banquets. Miss L. NJ. Beck, for a
number of years president Of the w. c. I.
l., was a member of the executive com
mittee and was at the Anderson convention.
She authorizes the statement that no such
charges were made. but that the discus
sion referred to the recent trouble of the
Princeton Inn. The suggestion was made
that such conditions as had been discovered
at Princeton might be to a degree true of
the colleges of Indiana. Il was therefore
suggested that the union would offer its
services to the faculties of all the indiana
colleges in aiding to build up the highest
moral sentiment among the students. No
particular Indiana college was mentioned
or in any way referred to. So far as has
been learned by careful investigation, no
alumni fraternity, or any other student body
of the Indiana University has ever served
intoxicants of any kind at the banquets.

Seekers after health and pleasure, who
have the means to spend for both, when
to determine where they shall go for a sum-
mer trip. and nine out of ten of them have
a foreign journey in mind. Those who have
who have travelled only in America want
to extend their observations to that wider
field of British and Continental attractions,
about which they have read in song and
story and dreamed of through many leisure
hours.
In these days not to have seen Europe
is to have been excluded from some of the
most exquisite enjoymentS that the world
can yield. 1t would take too long even to
cpai Sights Which alone the great CAPITALS
of Europe offer. But besides there are the
glories of the Alps, and the vigorous stimu-
lus of its bracing air brings new concep-
tons of life and new tone to the nerves.
The far-famed beauty of the Rhine with
its ruined castles and vine-clad hills must
be seen to be loved. The unique scenes of
Venice, absolutely alone in their character
istics, once seen are never forgotten and
finger in the memory like the motif of
cities that border the Mediterranean, in We
roma, Padua, Bologna and Florence, we
have associations that carry US back into
the far past and living facts that give
charm to the life of to-day.

LONDON. March 12-The Rev. F. B.
Meyer, who was recently the recipient OF
endless courtesies in the United States, has
furnished an interview with column of in
sulting considerations for the wicked
ness of his late hosts which for a display
of ignorance it would be hard to beat He
makes wholesale charges of chicanery and
CORRUPTION against public officials, and says
he is able to substantiate every one of the
charges of W. T. Stead Mr.. Meyers as
serts that he found it unsafe to walk in
towns of Kansas after dark except in the
middle of the road, owing to crimes of vio-
lence In regard to his interview with Pres
ident Mckinley all Mr.. Meyer could say was
that the President was pleased to hear
that we combined his name with the
Queens in our services, and he thought the
found in the Christian good will uniting the
churches of both. W si
