Tulane News.

The opening of the session of
l9OO-1OOl, marked the beginning
of an era in the history Of Tulane
University. Preceding the access
ion of the new president, college
spirit seemed to he hard to arouse,
but following the inauguration of
DR.. 4. L. Alderman, of North Car
olina, the energetic and well
thought out plans of that gentle
mali have caused the revival of en-
thusiasm and the University has
since advanced materially to it's
proper place among the foremost
of Southern institutions. The en-
rollment so far this season has been
very gratifying, though last year
there were 1l45 students, a larger
number than in any other Southern
university.
Regarding the student life at Tu,
lane, great stress should be laid
npon the important inauguration of
chapel services and lectures. For
a fc~ moments each day the stu
dents are assembled; at. which
gathering a few verses from the
Bible are read, the Lords prayer
recited, and n hymn sung Ivy a
choir Of students. On these occa,
sions any announcements that there
may be, are made and frequent
short talks made to the students by
the president and members of the
faculty. On one day in the week,
however, an address Of about forty.
five minutes duration is added to
the customary service. During the
past three months, several promi-
nGnt men and scholars of New Or.
leans have addressed the students
on interesting and instructive sui,
jects,'
The outburst Of college spirit fol.
lowing the recent victorious ath.
lctic season and eviHoed ut the
"crowning success, 7-Tnlane Night
is but another demonstration Of
the fact that college spirit has come
to stay and that heMeeforth Tuiaae
University will take a Icading
place among her contemporaries il
the march onward. For as Dr..
Alderman said at the close of che
Of his recent addresses TO the qtu-
dent body, "this university has a
future and destiny and will re-
main here as long as the great riv-
err, OH whose hanks size Staads,
flows onward to tile Rea."

The Capable Woman

The capable woman is just as likely
to develop TO perfection in the back
woods MS in the cultivated aud learned
circles OF metropolitan life.
Environment has not very much TO do
with her.
Like the poet she is born and not made,
There is no college or other institution OF
learning, which can turn her ont to
order.
The capable woman knows jn0t the
right thing to do in any emergency
which may confront her and she does it
She lIns confidence in her self. She does
not think it necessary to run among her
friends and ask everybody advice before
she does as she has u mind to ito.
/ She never says IL can't" but instead
she says'T will
She doesn't send for the doctor every
time she has an ache or bad feeling. She
doesn't get frightened every time she
hears a noise she cannot account for.
Size goes and finds out Whist the noise
originated from. She does not throw
cold water on her family. She cnconr-
ages every effort, she assists every enter
prise with her VOL balanced strength,
and she inspires all those who come with
in her Influence.
1t isa good and wholesome thing to
live nn6cr the same roof with hcr-tO
even live in her neighborl0od.
She knows how 10 do things. If the
house should catch firs she wouldtry her
best to put out the flames before she
rushed into The street and SO give the fire
q chance to develop strength and de.
strucrivencss.
If anybody in her vicinity should
break u limb or cut an artery she
wouldn't scream or faint away, but she
wouId render snch assistance az lay in
her power until medical aid could be
procured.
At the present time there is too much
of disposition upon the part of dotirg
mothers to ignore The practical things Of
life in tho education Of their daughters
They bring then, up t" think that work
common every day works. sort Of
degradation, and they do no: consider it
necessary that they should know how TO
do anEthing except to make themselves
pretty and agreeable,
'Ohn they say, what is The use Of

PROPOSES TO ABOLISH DEATH
PENALTY FOR MURDER
PRIMARY LAWS EXTENSION
Effort to Be Made to Spread Hem
nepin Law to Ramsey and
ST. Louis Counties
This Season.

| The Minnesota Legislature will be called
upon again to place itself upon record
regarding capital punishment, which is
| now prescribed for murder in the first
| degree. Five years ago bill of this
character was introduced in the house
| and defeated. Representa- tive Hendricks,
| of Kittson yesterday took the initiative
in another fight upon this matter by his
introduction of a bill abolishing the death
penalty and making first degree murder
| punishable by life imprisonment.
Representative Wallace, of Hennepin,
| submitted bill intended to help banks
| that have failed to lquidate their indebt-
| edness. 1t provides that such banks may
sell real estate, which they have taken
| on foreclosures or In other transactions,
and take as part payment for such real
estate other such property. This is said
| to be an Improvement upon the present
| law, which provides that such insolvent
banks can take cash only in return for
real estate sold in this manner 1t IS
stated In connection with this bill that
such a measure would have been the
salvation of many small bank that was
tied up with real estate just after the
financial depression few years ago
Another bill by Mr. Wallace provides
that county drainage bills may be added
to the securities in which savings banks
may invest their funds.
Kindergarten work in connection with
public schools received attention In a
bill yesterday introduced by Representa-
tive Morley. 1t proposes that a law be
passed authorizing members of any school
board to establish and maintain kinder
gartens in connection with the schools
under their supervision, the kindergar-
tens to be subject to the same system
of rules governing the schools Children
eligible to these primary departments
must be between the ages of four and
six.
WANT PRIMARY LAW EXTENDED
Mr.. Martin, of the Ramsey county
delega ton, yesterday submitted a large
petition urging the extension of the Min
neapolis primary election law to St. Paul.
There can be no doubt from the number
of names on the petition of its popularity
among many active politicians in this
city and many whose work does not bring
them into the political arena.
1t is the plan to have such bill pass
the legislature that will make effective
this law in ST Paul, and Duluth as we'll
1t is believed that many Of the strongest
Republican members Of the legislature,
who are antagonistic to the ring that has
managed politics in this city for so long
will give the measure their ardent sup
port. Rukard Hurd, of the Ramsey dele
cation, will probably take an active part
in the leadership of the bill. Mr. Hurd,
it is known, is not close to the mighty
powers that have heretofore had things
their own way in ST Paul and, it is
said, would willingly undertake the
championship of this measure, which IS
regarded as a death blow to ring man
| agement.

Representative Hickey's bill introduced
last week, by which appeals are directed
to be made from the municipal courts to
the district court instead of the supreme
courts, Is regarded by the majority of
prominent attorneys of ST. Paul as a very
wise measure, and for that reason strong
hopes of the bills passage are entertain
ed
This morning when the judiciary COM
mittee, which has the bill in charge
meets, they will listen to discussions from
members of the Ramsey County Bar as
ISOLATION upon the bill. The only objec-
ton which has thus far been made to
the bill is that it might result in entail
ing useless expense by compelling the
appeal to be made to the district courts
instead of taking them directly to the
supreme court. 1t is said that eventual
ly the appeal would go to the higher
court anyway, and 1t might as we'll take
that course in the first place.
On the contrary, however, friends of
the bill affirm that vast proportion of
the appeals which go to the supreme
court have no right before that body, be-
ing entirely too trivial in character. and
for this reason they claim that the argu-
ment of the expense proposition ought
not to have any weight with the COM

the legislature in voting on it.
