HER BEAU DISAPPEARED.
New York Girl Pound by His Cries That
He'd Fallen Down a Wen.

He'd Fallen Down u Well.
Jacob Guslain was out walking near
Fort Hamilton. at New York. the other
evening with Miss Louisa Jacobs by
his side, when he suddenly disappear
ed without anwerlng question she
had asked him. She was amazed and
could not account at first for such a
sudden desertion. Then. from hith-
erto unobserved hole at her side she
heard her lover Justify shouting for
help, and 1t became evident TO her
that he had fallen into an unused we'll.
Investigation showed that her surmise
was correct. When she had regained
her courage Miss Jacobs fastened OF
for assistance. She soon brought a
crowd to the mouth OF the we'll. carry
ing ladders, ropes and boards and after
considerable labor they succeeded In
bringing Guslain to the level OF the
street. He was badly cut and bruised.
Across his chest was cash where he
had hit sharp stone or nail. which
had separated his outer garments into
two pieces. A physician bound up his
bruises and washed the mud and refuse
out OF his hair and made him present.
able. Then he was taken to his home.
1t is supposed that some small boy
with malice aforethought removed the
board covering from the top of the we'll
and left the coverless well as trap.

COLLEGE WELLS HAVE USE.
Co servative Persons DO Not Favor No
Much Enthusiasm.

Much Enthusiasm.
Now 1t may be that American insti-
tutlons Of learning are wholly depend
ent upon the college yell for preserva-
tlon and sustenance. and that they
might helplessly collapse should Its
support be withdrawn. Among conser-
vative people. however. there is a grow
ing suspicion that the interests OF edu-
cation may be conserved with little
more decorum and a little less yell.
Some one has wisely suggested that an
initial step in weaning the American
university from dependence upon the
yell would be TO follow the example
OF oxford and Cambridge. and fix cer-
tain day in the year when students
Shall be conceded unlimited license.
when discipline and the faculty shall
take back seats, and youth and merri-
ment reign supreme. and not college
yell and class yells alone be the order
OF the hour. but when all manner OF cat
calls and caricature of the dominies
shall be reckoned among the days
privileges. Should such an order be
established. so strange a commingling
OF manliness and OF babyhood in the
American student. that finding himself
cast wholly upon his own response
billty one may safely predict he would
use his liberty with wise restraint
and consideration unknown to English
universities.-san Francisco Chronicle.

Aud so Richard Yates Is to have
the sweet satisfaction of taking his
venerable mother back to the guber-

blessed privilege which Candidate

DARING WHEELMEN.
Rode Over viaduct 500 Feet High on
Twelve-Inch Coping.

Twelve-Inch Coping.
Binghampton Cor. New York Sun:
Henry Wesson and Elbridge Hart. two
New York tourists, hold the record for
riding the Erie viaduct at Lanesboro.
1t was the result of wager. The via
duct Is over quarter of mile in
length and stands 300 feet from the
ground. II is used by the Erie and Is
not designed for passengers. A strong
coping ~ inches wide runs along the
outer edge, unguarded by rail or any
thing else. Within the past two years
many persons have fallen from the
structure. striking the rocks below.
Wesson and Hart were making BIZ
cycle trip from Buffalo to their homes
In New York. and when Lanesboro
was reached Hart dared ,Wesson to
ride the structure. supposing they
could go between the rails. When II
was found that the outside coping was
the only place available, he tried to
back out, but Wesson laughed at him
and wagered Sc that he dared not ride
IT, Thereupon he started across on
his wheel, Wesson following. Down in
the valley breathless crowd watched
the exploit, for the slightest wabble
would have dashed both to their death
or an approaching train would have
shaken them OF. They arrived at the
other side. however. both in a cold
sweat and badly scared. They declared
that all the gold in the country could
not Induce them to repeat the per-
formance.

CAT LED DOUBLE LIFE.
Feline Had Two Homes and was weil
Fed nt Both.

ttnt Iinu Two htothea W.r N'h
Fed at Both.
Even cat may lead double life.
There is a feline who divides his ia
vors between two families living In
Philadelphia, and his fickle disposition
has caused serious rupture In their
erstwhile friendly relations. One
morning he walked into the back yard
Of one OF the premises and proceeded
to make himself ut home. The cook
fed him and named him Jim and soon
he became an acknowledged member
OF the household. One day last week
while Jim was affectionately rubbing
against the legs of the master OF the
house In the back yard he heard a
voice from the adjoining yard calling:
Here. Mosesl Here. Mosesl" Jim
pricked up his ears. Then n womans
head appeared over the fence ana the
owner Of II suggested that Moses be
sent home at once. THAT isn't Moses;
that's jim" said the man. HE is no
Jim; he is Moses" retorted the woman
across the fence. Come home. Moses.
and get your cream" The cat clam
bered over the fence. Here. JIM
Here. Jim!" called the man. At this
iuncture the cooks of the two families
appeared on the scene and the Jim
cats cook expressed her opipion OF
the Moses cats cook. 1t turned out
that the cat with the aliases took
breakfast at 7. dinner at and supper
at s. In the house wherc he was known
as Jim. and breakfast at s. lunch at 2
and dinner at Z next door. where he
was known as Moses.-Philadelph
