Jaek-the- bridge haunter has beer
discovered. He is not such an ogre q
many of the people VINO had seen hin

at Fairchild Harner's Thursday b,
John Harner. He was wrapped NJ
in the blankets which are placed
around the milk cans to keep then
from freezing and was half frozer
from the intense cold of the night
He could give but little account Of
himself as he could not speak English
except with great difficulty. Besides
this he was SO badly chilled that he
could hardly talk.
When John left home to come Ia
town this morning the family Were
trying to get him thawed out and get
some food into him. He was nearly
starved as well as frozen. When first
found John thought that he was The
fellow who has been seen in the diff
ferent bridges about town for some
time at nights, from the descriptions
which have been given of him by the
different people who have seen him.
The old fur collar and the club which
proved to be hickory cane, were
found and the man filled the dcscrip-
tion to 4 T.
After getting little warm and
able TO talk he was asked about him.
self and why he had been acting as he
had been. He stated that his name
was Joseph Jassemy and that he was
a native of Germany and had only
been In this country for five months,
and was unable to speak English very
well. He said that he had been look
ing for work but had not found any.
When asked why he had not answered
the SITUATIONS which had been given
him by passers by he said that lack
OF his knowledge of English had been
the cause. The case is a pitiable one
and he will be lucky If he escapes
from serious sickness as a result of
the cold, exposure and hunger which
he has experienced.
BROUGHT TO TOWN.
This unfortunate was brought to
South Morgantown and turned over
to the authorities there. He was
brought to town and taken before
Mayor Glasscock. The examination
was frnitIess of results as he seemed
incapable of giving any ineligible
account of himself 1t was under
stood frcm what he said that he had
come from Fairmont here and that
he had landed six months ago in
Brooklyn. The mayor thought that
he should be put in Jail and taken
care of until the cold snap is over
but Charley Blair who had him in
custody would not hear of it, A
promise had been given Blair that
he should be allowed to take his man
back over the creek after the exami-
nation aad he insisted on the pledge
being kept. So they went back.
What will he done with the fellow is
a question which time only can set

be done to see that he does no dam

for years with heart disease but was

cants have finished their Courses
Advancement all along the Line
Large Increase in the attendance Is
not due TO lowering Of the require
ments--But one or two Law schools
in the Country surpass the universit,
Law Department.
A very material advance has been
made in the law department of the
University. AS things now stand
there are but one or two law schools
in the country which have a higher
standard. The day of cheap degrees
is past as far as the law department
is concerned. The A. b. l.. has been
abolished and the LII. B. is the only
degree that will be offered This will
require the same things that the A.
b. l.. now requires. However, all
the young men who are row in the
University and who want this degree
can get it by completing the work
before 1901. In other words it is not
the intention to keep any one who is
now trying for the degree from get
ting il.
The old degree LII. b., which was
given to those who finished the re-
| quired law studies will not be given on
the same terms. The men who finish
the law studies will be given a GER
tificate of graduation, which will ad-
NIT them to the practice of their pro-
fession in the state.
The degree LII. B. will require two
| years college work or its .uivalent,
and two years of law. That is to say,
any one who has the degree of b. S.
or A. B. from any reputable institu-
tion will be graduated with two years
of law With the degree. Or If the
candidate can take the examination
covering the ground covered by the
two years of college work will be given
credit for that much on the course.
If he can't take it all he will be given
credit for what he can pass and will
be required to make up the balance.
This will give applicants every adyan-
tage to get all they are entitled to.
At the same time the standard of the
University can be raised and the
standard of admission to the bar adj
vanced.
In this connection it might be well
to state that the standard OF the Uni
yersity has been raised all along the
line and the advance will be made
further. The University will not

fore the Musical Literature depart
ment Of the Milwaukee College En-.
dowment association Monday after
noon on ''Troubadeurs, Minnesingers
Meistersingers and Folk-songs."
The Sentinel says: .Mrs. Hinei
began with the strolling musicians,
the jongleurs of France, and showed
how they often acted as accompanies
for the troubadours who were gener.
ally ncbles. The speaker gave a re.
sumo of this music movement in
Northern and Southern France. She
then took Germany as the field of ac-
tion and gave history of the rise Of
the minnesingers, who were of the
mobiles, the upcoming of the meister-
singers, who were of the people, and
then the growth of the German folk
song. She traced the influence OF
the folk-song on all subsequent Ger.
man music and instanced the fact
that many of the famous Bach Choir.
ais, so called, were transcriptiohs OF
old folk-song. One special instance
was that of the so, Sacred Head
Now Wounded" from the passion
music, which was originally a love
song. Mrs. Hiner played the Bach
selection and then sang the old folk
song so that her hearers might trace
the resemblance. Mrs. Hiner also
sang several bits of the work of IT,.

ending with modern songs by Schu.
