DISCRACEFUL CONDUCT OF UNI
yERSITY STUDENTS AT AL
TIL.

Austin. Tex, Oct.-A mob of
about 200 unworthy students at
tempted to take tossessession of
the Grand Opera House tonight
while the performance was in
progress. The entrance doors were
barricaded aud held shnt by a
force of men from the audience
snd the repeated assaults of the
mob were resisted. Several valuable
rlctnres in the lobby were demol-
ished. The whole police force,
headed by Chief Thorp, were
called out to quell the mob, but
they were unable for "A time to
cope With it. Manager George Wal.
ker made complaint against a
"a number of the leaders aud they
will be arrested.
The affair created much excite
ment, and the participants in the
riotous attack are severely denounc-
ed by the respectable element of
the city.

where old Boot. Go.

Probably a large number of people do
not trouble their heads in the least as to
what becomes of their cast off footgsar,
but ] dare say 1t may interest them to
know that 1t Is not wasted, even II
thrown into the dustbin.
From that receptacle II Is rescued by
the scavengers, and a very large amount
OF the old leather Is eventually ground
up into a fine pulp latter having first
been carefully soaked to remove all dirD,
pressed into large sheets and then used
for making the tops of carriages or for
the cheaper sort OF leather binding for
books or for the embossed wall papers
which are now SO fashionable and which
have such handsome appearance.
This particular form OF decoration Is
nothing but thick paper covered with a
thin layer OF the pressed leather pulp, On
which are handsome designs In bronze,
old gold and other expensive colors.
Many of the better shoes are sold TO
dealers who hake the refurbishing up of
old footgear a most profitable business.
The best parts Of two pairs OF boots I'M
der their hands will make one decent
pair, which will be much appreciated by
a poor customer who cannot afford TO
buy a COED new pair. Or two odd boots
are made TO resemble one another and
make a pair, and, OF course, as the dealer
has paid very little for them, be can af-
ford to sch them again, even the best
Of them. for less price than common
or pair Of quite new boots.

A singing Frog,

A traveller recently returned from Ja-
pan tells that in that quaint country
trained insects are kept in cages as sing
ing birds"
Firefies and crickets are often found,
but an especial favorite is the singing
frog. A rare one belongs TO a lady of the
Japanese court. 1t is highly accomplish
ed, as 1t has been in training for seven
years. II sings beautifully and will do SO
even in the presence of strangers. In the
winter II hibernates. During its long
sleep its bed is jar full of tiny stones.
Over the jar is fitted a covering of straw
rope as q protection against cold. These
frogs are delicate creatures and are very
sensitive. They show great affection to
those who treat them kindly.

pity or even horror at punishments which
are now found too dreadful for descrip-

were burned at the stake, were racked,
were cut up alive. No one seems to have
felt any pity for their agonies. Men were
