Judging from the reports of the en-
trance examinations to the university
which have already been received, the
incoming freshman class will be the
largest in the history of Princeton.
The papers from ten different places
which have already been received and
examined show gain of 76 over the
figures of last year, the academic de-
partment running ahead % and the
scientific 81. OF the places heard from
New York leads with 70; Kansas City,
Mo-, is second, with IS; Princeton third,
with SO; Princeton preparatory, fourth,
with 30; Philadelphia, fifth, with IS;
Newark Academy, sixth, with 23-15
academic and scientific.
The report stands 292 against 216 over
last year for admission, and it is thought
that when all the papers are in the stu
dents are run up close to 500.

where we thought all they did was
against her. She weighed about 100
pounds when she was in good health.
When she commenced with our family
physician in April, 1898, she weighed
about 1870, but kept going down all the
time. She went to Atlanta, Ca. and
took treatment, but it did her no good.
Then she went to Harmony Grove, Ga,
and took treatment from the best ply
stefan there for three months. She
kept going down under his treatment,
although he was considered the best
physician in the county. She went
down from 1870 pounds to 68, and we
saw She could not live long. She was
skeleton. We consulted an old ply
stefan who told her to use Peruna. She
gradually improved and got stronger.
She has gained 38 pounds since she
has taken Peruna, and is gaining ev-
cry day and does her own homework.
"She was well known when she was
so low, and now everybody wants to
know what cured her She had indiges-

Unusual Robbery.

Galveston, Texas, May 16.-An I'M
usual robbery was reported here this
morning. The peculiar features of the
affair are, first, that it was the ruins
of st. Patrick's church that were rob
bed, and, second. that no one seems
to know what was taken. The corner
stone of st. Patfick's church, which
was laid thirty years ago was undis-
turbed by the storm. though the build
ing itself was wrecked. Il was the
intention to build on The same spot
and use the corner for the new
structure This morning it was dis
covered that an entrance had been
obtained to the receptacle within the
corner stone by removing several lay
ers of brick and that its contents had
been stolen. No record seems to have
been kept of the things placed in the
receptacle at the time the stone was
dedicated.
