DR.. HARPER'S JOKE.
1t Brought Forth Jeers for an Inno-
cent Young Instructor.

1t Brought Forth Jeers for an Inno-
cent Young Instructor.
William Bainey Harper, president OF
the University of Chicago, recently es-
tablshed his reputation as a practical
joker in a way that left no doubt that he
was a man accustomed TO do his work
upon Il large scale. The story has al
ready woven itself into the mesh of a
college tradition, and will long serve to
illustrate one side of the character Of
the great Western educator. 1t was a
cold, clear day, a football day, and
Marshall Field, by the Midway, was gay
with battlefiags that foretold stubborn
contest.
The vast grand stands were crowded
to their utmost capacity, for this Occa-
sion. when Chicago meets her rival, the
University of Wisconsin, is always one of
intense enthusiasm and fierce partisan
ship. Bands tried Intellectually to drown
the steady, joyful shout of the 'rooter,'
students and alumni trOOped to the cOlOrs
of their alma mater and the eager thrOng
poured steadily through the many gates.
AT this time there appeared III con-
spicuous place on the main grandstand
William Rainey Harper, escorting Presi-
dent Adams of the University Of W1ScOn-
sin. The players had not yet appeared,
and the restless crowd conferred its atten-
ton upon the two figures on the stand.
President Adams. Selling the moment,
turned to his host as the mighty cheer
of the cardinal rOoterS Numbered from
the opposite stand, and pinned upon his
breast the broad cardinal ribbon, the col
ors of the University of Wisconsin.
DR.. Harper made no objection, but
turned quickly, and unobserved made his
way to the entrance of the stand toward
which a number of members of his fac
ulty were apprOa ching. Foremost was
a bashful instructor who was extremely
anxious to pe popular, and so was a
faithful attendant at the football games.
DR.. Harper met him on the stairs with
unwonted cordiality.
''Glad to see you. doctor, but where
are your colorS?" said the president. Il
insist upon you taking mine.
The young instructor was so excited
and overcome by the warmth of his well
come that he imagined the roar of cheers
he heard was meant for him. He I'M
doubtedly would be promoted-perhaps to
the head of his department. With o
proud smile he sat down in the center of
the Chicago section; it was evident to
him that his long guarded discoveries in
neurology had somehow become known.
Everyone was staring at him. Suddenly
q strong hand was laid on his shoulder
and a harsh voice said:
See here, sir; what are you doing
with that cardinal ribbon? What do
you mean by coming here to faunt Wis
consin colors in our faces?'' 1t was the
voice of an influential trustee, and on all
sides rose fierce young partisans, who
wanted an explanation or his blood
Far back on the grandstand, near the
trustees empty seat, William Rainey
Harper laughed at his little joke until he
scarcely had breath enough to join in

came running onto the field

Manila Hemp Not Hemp at All.

One of the most valuable products of
our new possessions, the Philippine Isl
ands, is what is called Manila hemp,
which is not hemp at all, but is obtained
from a plant belonging to the plantain
family. Trees of three years growth
yield only about two-thirds of a pound
of fiber each; a bale of 270 pounds there

CLARK WILL DO NOTHING
Butte Is Suffering From Another Infl:c-

Done to Comply With the

Along with the extreme cold yesterday
morning came another infiiction of that
aWlul smelter smoke nuisance, accom-
panied by a "rubbing-it-in" declara-
ton from the official organ of w. A.
Clark's Butte Reduction Works that
no effort will be made to abate the
death-dealing nuisance and defying the
judge of the district court to enforce
the law against Clark or any other
guilty person or corporation.
1t was stated yesterday by a repre-
sentative of one of the smelling COM
panies that practically nothing has been
done to Indicate an intention to comply
with the order of Judge Lindsay, made
over month ago, by which the COM
panles were given until the LIST of May
TO do something toward abating the
nuisance. What little talk had been in
dulged in by the smeltermen before
Judge Lindsay made his order, about
building f1ues, has entirely subsidized.

abating the nuisance, but each one was

the clark interests that they could de-
leat any prosecution or attempt by the
courts to compel them to abate the
nuisance, and they did not propose to
90 anything. AS l take it, Clark would
rather pay million dollars to get
S5,OoO a year salary as United States
senator than to contribute his proper
tlonate share toward 100000 fund for
building smoke stacks by which scores
OF precious lives could be saved in
Butte every winter
