CO-EDUCATION.
Hostility of Men to the Presence of
Women at College.

Hostility OF Men to the Presence of
Women at College.
From the Philadelphia North American.
The recent manifestations of anti-coedu-
cation sentiment at such colleges Colby.
Tufts and Wesleyan are enough to discour-
age those who preach the leveling of all re-
strctions against women in our higher
schools. 1t looks as if the cause of sex
equality in education were in danger when
the tenants of these experimental stations
protest against the extension of the system.
So long as women students submitted
meekly to the enjoyment of their so-called
rights as a mere matter of privilege they
were tolerated indulgently. But since their
numbers have increased and their influence
in college affairs has grown more percepti-
bic their presence is coming to be regarded
with undisguiSed hostility by the opposite
sex. If these ambitious young women wish
to perpetuate their privileges for their
younger sisters they will profess to accept
the inferior station to which history has as
signed them. The imperialistic college man
will relentessly stamp out any possible in
surrection of females, while he would not
deny them a considera bic measure of lib
erty if they waited on his superior pleas
ure.

hended the dangers OF female supremacy in
her university when at. the time of her
final endowment of Palo Alto she stip,I-
lated that the number of woman students
should be limited to about 25 per cent of
the total attendance. Appreciating the
masculine standpoint, she determined that
it should never be known of the Stanford
family that it had founded a woman's COL
lege for men. For the most part her de-
cision was applauded. at least by men. On
the common theory that a woman elevates
herself by competing with men. and a man

The Arms of Wales,
From the Lcndon Chronicle.

From the LcndOn Chronicle.
The king is said to be favorably disposed
to the inclusion Of the arms of Wales in
those Of the future Princes Of Wales. 1t is
to be hoped that the dragon will not be
used as the symbol of this inclusion. for
nothing, heraldically, could be more abb
surd. The d-agon does not occur in the
coats of arms of any of the ancient Welsh
princes or in those of any of the old Welsh
families. It is sometimes spoken of as the
emblem of the Tudors: but Owen Tudor,
the founder OF the Tudor family. was not
armigerous; and the red dragon which
Henry VII adopted was not that of the
Tudors. but was a compromise between the
white bull OF York and the red lion and
greyhound Of Lancaster.

4 Revival of Interest i'm Remedies for
GOnsum tiOn.

From the Richmond Dispatch.
Prof. Koch's tuberculosis cure is again
coming to the front for attention, and 1t
would appear for vndication.
1t will be remembered that when the
Koch discovery was first announced many
leaders in the medical profession. both in
this country and abroad, took to il with
avidity For little while it fad"
Then came reaction. Some of those who
had been foremost in hailing the great
German scientist as benefactor to man
Kind began to discredit his cure and de-
nounce him as a charlatan. The former
ardent Koch disciple could not be too swift
or too active in bringing to the attention OF
the public the cases in which the use of
the remedy had proved disastrous" As
consequence of this, little has been heard
of late of tuberculin, except as test for
lung disease in cattle.
None the less, the Koch treatment has
been persisted i'm here and there in quiet
way, and despite all that has been said
against it, has been steadily adhered TO on
a large and thorough scale I'm one partic-
ular big tuberculosis hospital In Silesia.
Now. DIR. Goetsch, the head of that hospi-
tai, has made a report on his ten years of
persistence That report not only shows
most gratifying success from application of
the remedy understandngly, but proves. it
would seem, that all disastrous effects OF
its use have been due largely to Ignorance
and recklessness. DIR. Goetsch declares that
the idea that tuberculin is dangerous is
traceable to its employment in cases for
which 1t was not fitted, such when tu-
berculoss was complicated with suppura-
ton He also declares that when it is used
in simple cases, that are not too much ad-
vanced, and where there is no fever the
result is without exception favorable"
Prof Koch. who, nothing daunted has
been pursuing his Investigations. recently
visited the hospital in question and has
written an introduction to DR. Goetsch's re-
port. In this he says that his own expert
