STUDENTS RAMPANT.
Several Delaware College Boys Paint
MarblestOneS and are Now Pay
ing for the Damages.

The students of Delaware College, New
ark, were out on lark on Friday evening.
The marble yard of Elmer Thompson was
attacked and number of valuable stones
were carried to the college campus. The
stones were set up in graveyard style and
the inscriptions were put on in red pal Mt.
The sight caused many people to stop and
gaze on the scene
Mr. Thompson was very indignant over
the affair, as the stones were spoiled. The
loss will reach $50 at the least.
At a meeting of the faculty and students
President Harter failed to find the guilty
parties. The cost of running the marble
slabs will fall alike on the students.

The Chinese rs Mathematician.

Cambridge university has just had
a remarkable proof of the mathemati-
cal genius OF the Chinese. Some time
ago much surprise was caused among
mathematicians generally by the dis
covery among the papers OF the late
Sir Thomas Wade of Chinese fame Of
evidence that in the time of Confucius
the Chinese knew an equation which
only became known in Europe during
the last century, when it was discov-
cred by Fermat, and has since been
known as Fermat's equation. But the
Chinese version recently discovered
stated that the equation did not hold
with regard to certain numbers. This
puzzled the mathematieisns, and all
efforts to solve the point have hitherto
failed. Now, however, a young under.
graduate of Trinity college, Cam.
bridge. has demonstrated that the
Chinese were right, and his solution
is frankly admitted by the experts to
be perfect. The correspondent under

moon turns southwark from her ex-

the celestial equator on the S:h, TWO
days fer her full and in the midst of a
regular storm period. About Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday, the 7th to

storms will advance from western to
eastern parts of tine country. High
winds from the north will follow tbese
storms, amounting to cold wave i'll
most parts, beginning in the northwest
about the Sth, and spreading over the
country eastward and southwark by
the l1th.
A period OF unsettled weather will
set in about the 18th to 18th, extending
through the 18th and 16 b, and into the
Vulcan period central on the 1S.h. The
moon is at perigee and extreme south
declination on the 18Th and 10Th. The
perturbation of earth's Vernal equinox
begins annually about the middle Of!
February.
The atmospheric tide which will b.
drawn soulhw ard by the moons nos :
ton on or about the 18th and 16 b,
is almost sure to result in heavy
gales and storms, being tropical III
kind to the south, with sharp, 20

watch for a cold wave with the high

From The 21st the moon passes from

many sections, will be central about

colo aud freezing weather after warm
rains with thunder, is the usu,i ordei
during the Venus periods at this time
of year. Such changes msy take place
about 25th to 2Sth, progressively from
west to south and east. Only good
can result from being ready for such
results, but the possibilities are thai
the cold wave will be kept in abeyance
until the moon approaches the equator
