Mr.. Bowser laid down two big pairs

flush of hearts and held out her hand
for the money.
"How--how did you get any such
hand?" he demanded as his face grew
red and he regarded her with deep dis
trust
"You dealt It to me. When I stood
pat, you ought to have known that

"But how did know that you knew
anything about pat hands? 1t was oil
an accident, however, and 1t won't
happen again. Deal away"
This time Mr.. Bowser got a pair Of
aces to draw to, and Mrs. Bowser got
only queen high. He got small pair

threes. When she announced that she'd
stand pat again. he looked at her for
minute and made up his mind that she
had heard of 'bluffs" somewhere and
was trying it on him. He didn't better
his hand, but he thought threes good
enough to see her bet Of $5 and raise

there was supposed to be $50 in the

CADILLAC OBJECTS.
1t is very probable that the races

Invader will end in a dispute, because
of the developments Tuesday, when
Cadillac fouled the Canadian boat
while passing a buoy. Captain Thomp-

that the Invader fUuIled him and did
not give him room to pass the buoy.
which Is violation of the rules un-
der which the races are being sailed.
If Yesterdays race goes to the Invader
the Canadian boat will have the cup
practically won, as she will have
two races won and the weather condi-
tions are favorable to her build. Cad

the occurrence and it Is now regarded
as almost certain that the cup will go

NEW YORK, Oct. 3.-There is a brisk

Our stock of canary birds at present

of the birds come from Germany. where
the farmers raise thousands. They are
gathered up by men who make it their
business, and shipped in crates to all

consist of twelve crates. with 252 birds to
crate. In these lots there are both male
and female birds.

a NEW PLAN AT CORNELL.
six-fenr Course for Sibley College
Under COusitIeration

ITHACA, N, Y. Oct. 3.-Robert Henry
Thurston, Director of Sibley College, Cor
nell University, has made known some
interesting facts in regard to registration
in his department. The total number of
students in Sibley College, which en-
braces all the schools and branches of
mechanical engineering in the university.
is 765. or an increase of 10 over the pre-
vious year.
The point about this increase, however,
is that there are only about thirty stu
dents more in this years entering class
than in last years over seventy men,
many of whom are graduates of the arts
departments of the foremost American
cole ges, have entered the school of me
chanical engineering as sophomores and
juniors. Many who have been allowed to
register as seniors are graduates of the
less advanced technical schools who have
come to Cornell to continue their courses
or to specialize.
This influx of arts and engineering
graduates is highly gratifying to the uni
versity authorities. 1t is their desire to
make Sibley College If possible, a grad
uate professional school for men who
have already secured a liberal education.
In the past this has been unsuccessful
ling TO spend eight years to obtain their
education. President Schurinan. however,
intends establishing siX-year course for
mechanical engineers, by which men may
obtain their NJ. e. and A. E.. degrees in
six years. A similar system IS now be-
ing tried with success in the medical de-
partment.
