Higher Education.

1t may be remarked that ''bigher educa-
tom has brought with it many things that
were unknown thirty or forty years ago.
Hazing, cane rushes, efigy burning, college
yells, fights over banquets, hat smashing, ear
featuring the faculty in college publications,
are some OF the things that have come with
the 'higher education"
On Friday night of last week the senior
class of Johns Hopkins University school had
arranged to have banquet and the juniors
decreed they should not The result was
fight with fists and canes, four arrests by the
police and fines for dsorderly conduct.

Boer resistance to British aggre ssion seems
almost to have ceased. They are attacked by
overwhelming forces, and nothing but retreat
is left to them. Johannesburg has been &C.
cupied by the British, and it now seems Ger
tain that Pretoria, the capital of the Trans
vaal, will soon fall also. British triumph will
then be complete and not a vestige of liberty
will be left to the Boer patriots.

Every Republican Congressman from ohH'

Administration, yet, strange 10 say, at least
six of them have failed of denomination.
Does this mean that Ohio Republicans do not
