Change In Ruie Regarding Church At
Observation-Disclosures
BRUNSWICK, Oct. % (speciaD-At the
last annual meeting OF the board of
trustees the following recommendation OF
the faculty was accepted:
Voted, That the work In the first year OF the
medical school in physiology and anatomy be
allowed to count as four courses of term each
toward the degree of a. Is. In the college.
This provision makes it possible for
a senior in the academic department, If
he has studied chemistry, to graduate
from college and at the same time to have
completed nearly everything required
tor his first year in the medical school;
and thereby to complete his course there
in three years.
This year for the first time, the college
has changed its position in regard to
church attendance. Heretofore church at
tendance has been compulsory; now it is
expected, but is not obligatory. A record
OF each students attendance will continue
to be kept and reported to the parent each
term. No excuses will be accepted, and
eac n student must stand upon his record
Thus, the matter is made to rest primarily
with the parent of the student. Since
the adoption Of this policy, there has
been no noticeable decrease In the at
tendance, and there has been a marked in
crease towards more respectful conduct.
Old Bowdoin's prominence In track and
field events is noticeably great for a
college of its size, and to maintain its
position In this sphere OF general ath-
letics, faithful training and competent
coaching are necessary. James G. Lot hrop,
OF Harvard, who mas had large experience
with this branch of Harvard athletics,
has been secured for next springs track
team. Mr.. Lothrop visited Bowdoin last
week and offered many suggestions for
the winters preliminary training. The
long distance men are taking cross
country runs three times a week, and it is
expected that an outdoor board running
track will be constructed for the running
practice during the winter months.
Seven Of the Greek letter fraternities
held their limitations last Friday night.
Forty-tive men were initiated, all but two
of whom are members of the freshman
class. The usual preliminary tasks were
imposed; a ludicrously dressed freshman
tended the goat Of one OF the fraternities
in front of its club all day, thus furnish
ing undisputable evidence that the animal
was no myth; another freshman was
obliged to put on the uniform OF train
boy and peddle his wares through the
cars on the run into Portland; and all of
the initiates found they had for the time
lost all their friends among the upper
classmen.
Among the initiates were the following
Hancock county boys: George Everett
Kimb ball, of Northeast Harbor, and Ray
mond Thomas Warren, of Castine, in
itiated into Delta Kappa Epsilon; Theo-
dore Cunningham, Of Bucksport, into
Zeta Psi.
At the annual meeting of the New Eng
land college presidents to be held at
Worcester this year, Bowdoin will be
represented by President Hyde and Pro-
lessor Hutchins.

Anecdote of Heureaux.

Some wears ago a conspiracy headed
by several prominent young men of
the Santo Domingo republic, who hop
ed to gain wealth and position through
the death of HeureauX, attempted to
take his life and start a revolution.
Their plot was cleverly planned and
seemingly sure of success, for the pres
ident showed no suspicious, continu-
ing his customary mode of life, walk
ing and driving throughout the city as
usual without guards, although at that
time he was fully posted in every de-
tail of their scheme, and when their
plans were fully matured and their
time for action at hand he had them
all arrested and thrown into the dun
geons of the old Notifications.
The penalty for crimes of this sort
is always death. So soon after their
arrest they were drawn up in line on
the old parade grounds within the
walls OF the old fort and told to pre-
squad lined up in front of them and
were ordered to fire. AS they did 50
one man fell
The president, who was a witness,
then stepped forward and said: MY
children, you have attempted to ruin
your country and take my life, and
for this you are legally subject to
death, but L do not want to see you
die so young. That man on the ground
had to give up his life to pay the pen
atty for his misdeeds. If you ever plot
against me again, you will be where he
is. Look at him, remember what /

SMALLPOX REMEDY.
Cream Of Tartar Said to Be a Simple
and Unfailing Lure.

An Inter Mountain correspondent again
calls attention to what he considers an
unfailing remedy for smallpox. This
remedy was first given to the public by
Edward Hine. a correspondent of the
Liverpool (Eng.) Mercury, in which he
said in a communication to that paper:
II am willing to risk my reputation as
a public man if the worst Ease of small
pox cannot be effectually cured in three
days simply by cream of tartar. This Is
is a sure and never-failing remedy. One
ounce of cream Of tartar dissolved in a
pint Of boiling water, to be drunk whe
cold. at short intervals. 1t can be taken
at any time n is & preventative as
we'll as a curative. I have restored hum
dreds by these means. 1t never leaves a
mark, never causes blindness and always
prevents tedious lingering. If the people
would only try it n report all the cures
to you, YOU would require many columns
if you gave them publicity"
The Inter Mountain correspondent
says: Il will add to this that we have
tried the o remedy in our family for
smallpox. diphtheria, scarlet and other
fevers and found that if taken in time
is so cools the system that the fever can
be managed. or SHOULD any case have
been neglected and the fever become
high, cream of tartar will quickly reduce

THE SCHOOL BOARD,
The New West Side School House to Be
Completed Nov. "a.

The contract and bond of Contractor
William Barker for the erection of the
new West Side school house was read at
the meeting of the school board last
night and referred to the county attor-
ney. The contract requires that the
building be completed by November "a.
Through some oversight, ]. Chauvin,
who was awarded the contract for sup
plying a carload of adjustable desks, has
failed to execute his contract and bond,
and as that gentleman is reported as
being in Spokane, the board deferred the
matter until next Saturday at noon.
Superintendent Young reported that
he had visited the Nine-Mile school and
had our Is pupils in attendance and
the work moving smoothly. He recon-
mended that the school be continued for
another month, and his report was
adopted by the board.
1t was decided to close the Basin
school this month for the winter.
Upon the recommendation of the JAM
itor and supply committee it was decided
to purchase coal in carload lots.
Bills to the amount of $l,034.96 We're
audited and ordered paid. The greater
part of this amount is for building ana
repairs.

SPECIAL Meeting
OF THE CITY COUNCIL.
SOME ACTION WILL BE TAKEN ON
THE SMALLPOX SITUATION
TONIGHT.

A special meeting of the council will
be held tonight for the purpose of con-
sidering the a~dvisability of establishing
a sanitary sewer on West Galena street,
from Missoula gulch to a point $50 feet
east of Excelsior avenue.
The health board is in session this
afternoon to discuss the smallpox situa-
ton. and will probably make some rec
o~lnmendation to the council regarding
compulsory vaccination. as the health
officer and the chief of police cannot
come to any amicable understanding in
regard to the matter. DR.. AleXander
still contends that it should be the duty
of the police force to make a house to
house anvass n arrest people who
cannot show the necessary certificate OF
vaccination, and he says that 1t will be
impossible for him to personally attend
as positive that he cannot detail his men
on this duty, and the chances are that
the council will have to determine what
shall be done.
Up to 4 o'clock there were no petitions
on file with the clerk, and as the meet
ing is a SPECIAL one few, if any, are ex-
pected. The judiciary committee is in
session and is considering matters that
have been referred to them at previous
meetings of the ouncil The light and
building committee held a short meeting
and considered a few applications for
lights.

MAY RESULT
i FATALLY
JAS. RUFFATTO, A MINER AT THE
RARUS, SEVERELY INJURED
AT Vaudeville,
SKULL FRACTURED
AND JAW BROKEN.
His Assailant Is in the County Jail
Awaiting the Result of In
juries Inflicted.

A row which may be attended with
fatal results occurred at Meaderyille
yesterday afternoon.
The victim is James Ruffatto, a miner
employed in the Rarus mine, and he lies
in his bed at Meaderville with a frac-
tured skull, a broken jaw and is para
lyzed from the hips down.
His assailant is Mike Bartollio, a miner
employed in the Colusa mine, and he is
confined IN the county Jail awaiting the
result of the injuries inflicted by him on
Ruffatto.
1t appears that the men had a difficulty
some time before, but the nature of it
cannot be learned. They came together
yesterday afternoon, and it is claimed
that Bartollio without many preliminar-
les struck Ruffatto on the head with 4
heavy steel nail-puller and fractured
his skull. The projecting piece OF the
nail-puller struck the victim to the right
of the nose on the upper jaw, penetrat-
ing and f%racturing the jawbone and
knocking out a number of teeth.
Not satisfied with the injuries infict-
ed, it appears that Bartollio peat his VIC
tim on the body with the nail-puller and
inflicted many wounds and bruises which
nave had the effect of paralyzing Ruff
ratios lower limbs and wholly depriv-
ing him of the use of them.
Ruffatto was taken to his home by peo-
pie living in hat district and the services
OF DR.. Wells We're called for. An exam
nation of the wounds inflicted show
that they are of a very serious character
and may result in the death of the VIC
tim. He is at present in a critical con-
dition.
Word OF he assault did not reach the
authorities until several hours had
elapsed. and then a complaint was filed
in Justice Nichols court. charging Bar
tollio with assault in the first degree.
G. g. Rhoades served the war
rant. and arrested the man while he
was at work in the Colusa.
