Trouble Over a Pillow Fight at
 the University.
PUNISHMENT IS TOO SEVERE
Resent inc PenaliY pre-
 SCribed by Professor Hall and
 TwenfV-Six Of Them Walk Out.
 The Chancellor and Citizens Of Tucson Trying to Effect Com promiSe-Hn Apology Demanded.

Tucson, Ariz., April 1.-(Spec:aL) )- pillow fight was indulged in by twenty six students. The sport was arranged lower floors of the dormitory, and the battle began during the half hour pre- ceding the bedtime of the students. The students on the upper floor met those below on the stairway and the fight was carried cut to the campus, where it lasted twenty minutes. It was friendly battle in which no one was hurt.
 Professor Hall was aroused by the noise and he witnessed the contest from his residence. On Friday morn ing it was decided to punish the stu dents by two hours of extra drilling. The students resented the punishment by issuing a resolution in which they claimed that the punishment was un- deserved, as the pillow fight occurred during the half hour allotted them for recreation.
 When time for drill cap1e today most of the students had gone to the city. They left the school in a body, only few of them taking part in the drill, and accepting the penalty for their misbehavior. Some took part in the drill and afterward left the university to join the others down town.
 As a result there are about four male students left at the university. An ef- fort is being made to have the stu dents return on Monday, but they re- fuse to go back. Chancellor Herring and a number of prominent citizens went to the university tonight to try and effect a compromise. Professor Hall is indignant over the action of the students, while the young men claim that the punishment for their harmless sport was too severe and nothing less than an apology on the part of the faculty will bring them back.
 The students who left were: Frank Doan, Charles Scholey, Ed Stole. Henry Castanedo, Charles Mayer, Burr Mayer, Nathan w. McChesney, Rex Miller, Willis Warren, Willard Breth- erlin, James Colbeth, Albert de la Osa, Guy Horn, Tom Trevilliane, Alex-Pen- ~ dletcn, William Whippie, Will Me Bride, A. Arriegs,[ CInude Michae.

ONLY ONE HDMlRAL
The President Has No Idea Of Ap-
 pOinfiOg Another.

Washington, April 1.-AlthOugh a
 forced construction of the legislation
 of the last congress would seem to au-
 thorize the President to appoint an admiral of the navy in addition to Admiral Dewey it is said at the navy department that there is no intention of so doing in the interest of Rear Admiral Sampson or any one else, as it is perfectly clear that the purpose of congress was simply to provide for the advancement of Admiral Dewey to that grade. On March 2nd, the President approved an act authorizing ''the President to appoint, by selection and promotion, an admiral of the navy, etc." In accordance with that act, the nomination of George Dewey to be ad- miral was sent to the senate and con firmed March g. Notwithstanding that action, congress on the same day pass ed the naval appropriation bill. con- taining a provision identical in Ian guage with the act under which Dewey has been nominated This bill was ap- proved late the same afternoon. By some authorities it is contended that this provision of law, having been en- acted subsequent to the nomination and confirmation of Admiral Dewey, the appointment "by selec- tion and promotion" of another ad- miral of the navy.
 Secretary Long holds, however. that congress intended that only one ad- miraI should be appointed, and it is that the President will act l accordingly.

 I'll check it up to you. Hcw much are you willing to give?" replied the clerk
 "Oh we will give you :S,5e0," said the claim agent.
 Did you ever play po1er?" asked the clerk.
 ''Yes, but not recently"
