ALL TITLES ARE BARRED.
Professors Mt University of Chicago
T. Henceforth to Be Addressed
~ "Mtster."

Nothing except plain "nister" can
be used by one professor in address,
ing another at the University Of Chi
cago hereafter. BY d mutual agree
ment between all the menbers OF the
faculty and various officers OF the uni
gersity this rule will be observed until
further legislation IL deemed neces-
Eary.
There are so many titles and appells-
lions used for the officers and profess
sors of different degrees of notozdety
at the Midway school that It was found
imperative by the titled men for their
own preservation that they make some
hard and fast rule about what they
bhould be called.
Confusion Of titles has reigned at the
university for some time and much en-
barrassment has been caused to the
members by having colleague who
ought to know better cali him "docent"
when he was a head professor" or
"dootor" when he was bachelor"
Or an associate" when he was an "as-
sistant." So numerous and misleading
are many of the titles that the pro.
fessors do not understand them them
selves, and 1t was this fact which
caused them to become so desperate
as to be wished to be called the plain
Rppellation mister"
Speaking Of the innovation, Prof.
Oliver Thatcher said that 1t did seem
Strange for awhile, especially the first
time he heard the university's presi-
dent called "Mr." Harper.

REBEL AGAINST MILITARY.
! TO Being Ruled by Laws Govern
/: ing the Army.

4 The war department mail from Ma
mia brings some interesting stories
of rebellion started against military
authority. Several civilian teamsters
employed by the quartermastsr's de-
partment have been placed under ar
rest at one of the army stations by q
puartermaster in charge of govern
anent work at that place. The team
STEERS have protested that this treat
ment is illegal and that they are not
under the same rules as apply to enlist
ed men.
1t seems these employees were or
dered to perform certain work, to
which they objected, and they asked
for their money and their discharge.
This was refused and they were placed
under arrest.
The action is in entire accord with
the articles of war. Civilian employees
in military jurisdiction come under
the same regulations as soldiers. They
may be kept in confinement not more
than eight days awaiting trial. The
teamsters in the Philippines, there
fore, have no legal ground for com.
plant.

SLAVE TRADE RIFE.
Consul General long at Cairo Tells
of Existence of the Evil.
sayu That, While 1t Has been Prac-
tically Stopped in Egypt, the
Slave Trade Is Carried Onin
Parts of North Africa.

Great interest In the slave trede h
Egypt and Abyssinia is manifested by
the people of this country, according to
a export TO the state Departments from
Consul General Long at Cairo. TT
may be stated" says that official, "that
oil Trading and trafficking of slaves In
Egypt has practically ceased. Thes1fc-
cess of the government in the cele-
brated 'Sharkieh case which was tried
in the courts of Cairo in 1899, and the
subsequent case of kidnapping which
took place at Luxor on the Nile, vir-
tually put an end to slavery in Egypt"
At Jedda, however, the slave trade
has been the most serious ad difficult
to arrest and overcome. Thus there
are 10 well-to-do slave merchants at
this point whose names and depots are
we'll known. About SO to 100 slaves are
imported to Hegaz from the African
coast, north of Nassau. They are prin-
cipally Abyssinians, and the prices
range from $50 to $500 each.
In Abyssinia the slave trade still
exists, and in speaking of this abhor-
rent practice the consul general says:
"a traveller who recently crossed
Abyssinia informs methat slavery ex-
| lists, but In restricted and compare
lively humane form, the powerful
chiefs alone being permitted to acquire
domestic slaves, who become in effect
| members of the household. There are
no auctions or open sales
I'm the country of Godjam, however,
which is nominally subject to Menelik,
the institution of slavery openly ex-
lists, and public sales take place in the
ordinary weekly markets. The supply
of victims for this traffic is principally
obtained by organized raids upon the
strip of country inhabited by mixed
4 Shangalla tribes, which separates
Abyssinia proper from the Anglo
i Egyptian Soudan, The boundaries OF
this territory are the River Bolasso on
the east and line running north from
Famaka.
1.-THE writer states that the survey
now proceeding, which has for its
object the delimita tionof the frontier
between Abyssinia and the Soudan, will
NOT be completed for at least another
year, and he expresses the wish tina,
the territory referred to could be in
cluded in the Soudan and so brought
, under Anglo-Egyptian administration
when an end would be put to the slave
: trade"

sNEEzED OUT A BULLET.
Little Boy in Michigan Shot in the
Head Extracts the Missile By
His Own Efforts.


A sneeze ard pat on the back and
young son of Martin Howard, who
lives six miles north of Ann Arbor,
Mich, the other day spat out bull
let that had entered his head at the
root of the ear.
Howard has two sons, aged six and
twelve years, and is the possessor of
revolver. Unfortunately the two
children found the revolver and in
their play the younger boy pointed it
at his brother, who was only four
feet distant. He thought it was not
loaded, but it was, and the bullet
struck the little fellow at the root
OF the ear and passed along line be-
tween the base of the brain and the
roof of the mouth.
DR.. I. S. Walker, of Mortified, and
DR.. w. B. Hinsdale, of Ann Arbor,
were at once sent for and the parents
made the little fellow as comforta BILE
as possible. He was restless, how
ever, and about half hour after the
accident, sneezed hard and out came
the bullet. The wound in the mouth
bled little, but the doctors say he
is not seriously hurt and will recover.
