THE regents of the w. A. G. are oh
Jecting to the new title of "School OF
Technology, which hag been proposed
in lieu OF the present name, "Washing-
ton Agricultural College,. They have
requested that, if a change is made, the
name of "The State College of Washing
ton" he adopted. The objection to the
word Agricultural" is that it represents
only one of 1.-THE many branches taught
in this great institution and thus creates
an entirely wrong impression on the pub
lie at large. On another page will be
found news item in regard to the po-
sition Of civil and electrical engineer
now held by L. r. Tsnnatt, graduate
of this college, on the island of Ohau.
Of what uge would diploma from An
"Agriculturai' college be in securing
such a position? In letter to President
Bryan he states that his success in clos
ing two years contract with the COM
pany was due entirely to his commission
as lieutenant OF U. s. engineers, and that
he keeps his diploma out of sight. Mr.
Tannatt also states that Mr.. Grin STRAIT
ton, also former graduate OF the coll
! ege, applied for y similar position on
smaller plantation but failed to secure
1t, principally owing to the fact tuat his
diploma was issued by an agricultural
college and the company to whom he
applied could not understand how an
agricultural" course could fit him for
the duties OF civil engineer. This one
instance is argument sufficient for the
change of name as has been requested,
and the name petitioned for, "The State
college OF Washington, is simple and
generic and follows the example of the
great state OF Pennsylvania, which has
its State College of Pennsylvania, with
almost identically the same functions
relative to. agriculture, mechanic arts,
mining and other industrial objects.
state College" is the initial part of the
name of large number of colleges of
agriculture and mechanic arts and sug-
gests at once, to those who are informed
precisely the distinction desired. and if
adopted the state will gain more and the
graduates of the college will gain more
than is possible under the present mis-
leading title.

Mr.. GRossCUP, the Northern Pacific
attorney, has turned philanthropist and
really is fighting the interests of the cor.
porations. AT least that is what he
would have the public believe. In his
statement to the railroad committee he
asserted that the LaFollette bill in re-
ality increased freight rates about 25 per
cent. instead of decreasing them, and for
that reason he urged that the bill be de-
fested. There may be legislators with
itching palms, who may be pursuaded
TO believe such rot and seek to Justify
their treachery to their constituents by
such barefaced misrepresentation, but
the ordinary everyday individual can
easily detect a largo sized "ngger in
the wood pile for self-interest would
close the lips OF the corporations and
their lobbyists if such statements were
facts.

"a Pieos of Lath.

A story is told of former mayor of Birmingham, England, that he gave orders to have his robes of office lined with "vermln." When the late Alder man Surge was mayor he received a royal command to dine and sleep at Windsor. This of course meant court dress and sword. The court dress was reluctantly submitted to, but as a mem- Der of the Society of Friends, and, moreover, one who had greatly distin- guished himself in the cause of peace for he had focmed one of the peace deputation to the ezar before the out break of the Crimean war, MT. Surge would not consent to wear a lethal weapon. A compromise was happily effected X scabbard and hilt of the usual kind were at his worship's side when the presentation to royalty took place, but the sword was mere lata of wood. Fortunately the worthy Quaker was not called upon to draw ID defense of his sovereign.

A Strawberry Possibility.

An exceedingly pretty strawberry dessert as well as delicious one is called strawberry fromage. Here is the recipe: Soak an ounce of gelae.l in a half pint of cold water half an hour. Press quart of clean, rich strawberries through a flour sieve fine enough to prevent the seeds from go- ing through; add one cup of pulyerized sugar. q few drops of cochineal, to give a bright color, and the gelatin just melted over the tea kettle. Stir untI it begins to thicken, having the pan. containing the mixture within another pan of ohepped ice. As it thickens, beat in rapidly one pint of whipped cream. Line mold with lady fingers, fill with the fromage; cover and pack in ice and rock salt for two hours, when it will be found frozen and ready to serve.

In place of wearing strings of pearls, women at the theaters wear thick ropes made of five strings of imitation seed pearls wound twice around the collar 6f the dress and fastening in front with the ends of the ropes that ter minate in two full tassels of pearly strings. Another purchasable oddity is the dog collar of jet beads. Strings of colored cut glass or jet beads are not in the fashionable position they once held, and in their place fve-string dog collar is assumed with slides of rhinestones, else at intervals two strings are caught together with 3 white crystal, rich red or turquoise bead. to the great enhancement of the erock with which it is worn.

This little princess is the favorfte granddaughter of the Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria, and her father, the Archduke Rudolf, would one day have been emperor if he had lived.
 She has fine castle, in which she lives with r mother, and has many fine horses and carriages, but she lives as simply as most healthy American girls of her age. Both she and her mother are very fond of horseback riding, bicycling and other outdoor exercises, and the people of Austria love her very much, for she is very kind to the poor people and spends a great deal of her time planning for their comfort and happiness. She and her mother. it is said, think more of each other than all the world beside, and they are more like two sisters than like mother aud daughter.

New York. Feb 6.-The stock market
prices were extremely variable to-day.
but ended with only fractional net
changes, the majority of which were up
ward. Many conflicting rumors reached
the street as to the probab ilities of con-
and these were instrumental in staying
values.
The first effect of the uprising at Ma
Mia was discouraging. Stocks opened be-
low the London parity, and there were
soon material declines in number of
cases. London sold about 5000 shares of
stock. Traders bought on the decline and
prices improved. Although dealings were
much contracted compared with recent
averages, prices rose above Saturday $
closing Houses with Washington con-
rections were watched narrowly, with a
view of getting some intimation by their
dealings as to the treaty's chances. but no
decided tendency one way or the other
could be detected. Toward midday the
market again worked upward with minor
periods of depression, but gradually top
figures were generally reached. The i'm
preston prevailed in some quarters that
the outburst of the Filipinos assured the
tfeaty's ratification, and on the theory
that settlement of the uncertainty would
be beneficial there was buying of stocks.
On the other hand many decided to re-
duce their commitments over night as a
precautionary measure. and these con-
tending interests gave the market its ap-
pearance of irregularity. The feverish-
ness which prevailed in the early dealings
in a measure gradually disappeared as the
day wore on and the middle and low
priced stocks sympathized with the ad-
vancing tendency of the gilt-edge stocks.
In the final dealings there were slight re-
cessions from the best prices.
The bond market showed marked heav-
mess in the early transactions, but later
improved in spots, closing irregular. To-

He was unconscious when picked up, and
it was at first believed that the old pc
destrian had received fatal injuries. The
sufferer, who is IA years of age, is a ia
mliar character in Chicago, where he has
made his home for nearly a quarter of
century. For number of years he held
the title of champion pedestrian of the
world, and up to within 10 years ago he
would meet all corners and compete with
them at distances varying from 100 to 1GNo
miles. His last effort as a walker was
in 1893 during the Worlds fair, when he
walked from Chicago to New York on a
wager of $500. He completed the distance
IA day short of the record time, which was
considered marvellous for one of his age.
