wavy line, SO perfectly suggestive of
the contour of the animal that it is
quite impossible to escape from its
meaning. 1t might stand as an excel
tent contemporary illustration Of the
text of Herodotus neither author nor
artist overstepping the modesty of ma
ture. This was reserved for later times,
m Wnlch arose SO many Of the myths
ana extravagances which we are ready
, TO 1mpute to the lack Of practical
knowledge by the classic writer's.
When Fuller lucubrated SO learnedly
of the crocodile he doubtless felt that he
was correcting the erroneous idea of an
early period, and the following example
OF his erudition may serve to show how
he set about the task: "The sovereign
power of saffron is plainly proved by
the antipathy of the crocodile thereto.
for the crocodile's tears are never true,
save when he is forced where saffron
groweth, whence he has the name OF
saffron fearer knowing himself to be
all poison and it all antidote." AS to
this legend of the crocodile's tears, 1T
can only be regarded as myth grated
upon some of the reptiles observed
habits. Probably because they could
offer less resistance to his attacks, wo-
men and children were especially liable
to them, the office of the former as wa
Nile, and the children naturally finding
a playground on It's shores.
Herodotus gives an amusing account
of the manner in which the Egyptian
brothers of the angle used to fish for
crocodile, from which it would seem
that they had taken leaf out of the
reptiles own book of strategy.
They baited the hook with a large piece
of hogs flesh, with which they made
real anglers east into the middle Of
the river And they employed very
special and alluring form of ground
bait, consisting Of vigorous young
porker, whom they anchored Irish
fashion, on the bank and melted by
divers irritating arts into energetic
squealng. Bntranced with the melo-
dious sound the crocodile was drawn
in the direction from which 1t came,
and being unable to get at the pig put
I'D with the baited hook instead.

EXODUS FROM PRINCETON.
No New Case of VarioIoid Has Been
Reported, However.

Reported, However.
PRINCETON, y. j., March 1.-The
physicians in charge Of the ydi;cloid case
at the University Indcmary reported last
night that X. $. Steen. the patient who
was taken in on Monday, was in an i'm
proved condition yesterday. and that no
new cases have been reported. 1t is be-
ueVed by the authorities that the prompt
measures taken at the outset have pre-
vented any further infection, and that
there is now absolutely no danger of an
epidemic.
Notwithstanding the reassuring ac-
counts given out from the infrmary.
there was a steady exodus Of students
from Princeton for New York and Phila-
delphia all yesterday. Many of the young
men received kilograms from their pa
rents ordering them to leave town at
once, and TO remain away while there
is the slightest symptom of the disease
in the university. Others have taken ad-
vantage of the temporary embarrassment
of the faculty to get a short vacation
from studies, and this number has been
augmented by an order from the Sanitary
Committee of the faculty which cOmpels
all students who have frequented the
town restaurant at which the Vandal
Eating Club. of which Steen is member.
has rooms, to depart for their homes. In
all probability 800 students have left town.
and more who have sent for money will
leave to-day.
REGULATIONS and lectures were held yes
terday as usual with all the professors at
their posts but the attendance IN some
courses was reduced TO one half The usual
number. 1t was learned last night that
unless some new cases OF variolOid APP
pear, which is entirely improbable, the
university will not be closed.
