A PHONE MESSAGE.

Just before the Democratic members
filed into the chamber Lieut.. Henry
Frohme came up from the police Office
and notified Mr.. James Cummias that
he was wanted" at the telephone.
When his name was called somebody
remarked tht he had just stepped out
and would return in a few minutes.
Mr. S Meyers renewed the motion TO
go into joint session. but before 1t was
seconded Mr.. Fitzslmmons moved to add
journ. Messrs. Bailey and Lavey voted
with the Republicans. and Mr.. Scheeble
with the Democrats carrying the mo-
ton by a vote of IA to 10,
II Mr.. Cummins had been present
and had voted with the Republicans the
motion to adjourn would have failed
by a tie vote When President Shafer
declared the body adjourned some of
the Republicans were very wrathy.
| They took varying views of the matter.
| Those who regarded the phone call as
an accident cursed their luck Then
| there were some who were kind enough
to call it Democratic strategy. This
was very complimentary inasmueh as, il
true, it demonstrates the folly of sti-
fling in a hot office room when the same
end may be attained by much simpler
methods.
The question of victory in the gas
! board fight is still In doubt, and 1t will
be very interesting before 1t closes.

English colleges, in which it was the
custom to make new students do me-
NAL work for the upper classmen. The
hazing which has been INDUCED in has
largely been practiced upon freshmen,
but occasionally other classmlen have
been hazed. To haze means to disturb,
harass, annoy, and it was in some way
figured out that this was just what
ought to be done to men entering col
eye for the first time. 1t was decided
that they should be servile and that
they should do whatever they were
told by upper classmen, no matter how
absurd or degrading an act should be
demanded of them. AS early as the
year 1850, sixteen years before the
breaking out of the revolutionary war.
the following regulations were enacted
at Yale university:
cit being the duty of seniors to teach
freshmen the laws, usages and customs
of the college, to this end they are en-
powered to order the whole freshman
class or any particular member of it to
appear, in order to be instructed and
reproved. at such time and place as
they shall appoint, when and where
every freshman shall attend, answer
all proper questions and behave de-
Gently.
1.-The freshmen are forbidden to wear
their hats in the college yard until the
May vacation, and whenever a fresh
man either speaks to superior or is
spoken to by one he shall keep his hat
off until he is hidden to put it back on.
ga freshman shall not play with any
of the members of an upper class with
out being asked.
+ Freshmen are required to perform
all reasonable errands for any supe-
rior.
Freshmen shall not run in the col
lege yard nor up and down stairs, nor
call to any one through a college win

ZANZIBAR IVORY.

One of the Oldest of Ivory Markets
Higher Prices Than West Coast
Zanzibar continues to send import
ant quantities of ivory to Europe. Ii
is one of the oldest ivory markets and
was formerly one of the largest, but is
now surpassed in the quantity of ivory
collected by Matadi on the lower Con
go. Elephant tuSks are gathered in
the far interior and brought to the
coast on the backs of men. Sometimes
business is good and sometimes it i.
poor according to whether good lucl
attends the ivory collectors. Now ans
then they are so fortunate as to come
across some native who has a larg.
quantity of ivory buried in the ground
then again they will find a good many
tusks in native villages, where it is
often used to form a part of the forti-
fications which every village must pos.
sesS. Few animals are killed to in.
crease the present ivory supply, bur
most of the tusks are those the natives
have been collecting for years.
The profits of the business depend
in part upon the ignorance Of enlight
eminent of the native seller. Not a few
of the chiefs of east Africa are still ig
norant of the fact that ivory is highly
avlued by the whites. If they have no
learned this fact they will sell theil
ivory very cheap.
The quality of the east African ivory
is for some reason or other considered
superior to that of the Congo or west
coast ivory. 1t brings a somewhat
higher price in the market In order
to indicate the place of origin the Gus
tom house at Zanzibar affixes its stamr
to each tusk and makes a small chars,
for thus guaranteeing to purchasers O.

Hsthsa of Determining the Origin Of
Blood Stains.

Method OF Determining the Origin Of
Blood stains
In trials for murder it Is often OF
the first importance to determine the
origin of blood spots found on cloth
ing, weapons, etc. Do they come from
human blood, or firm that of animals,
Is the question asked. Recent expert
ments have shown that if red blood
corpuscles characterization any ami
NAL are introduced into the blood of
another animal the serum of the lat
ter acquires the property of destroying
other corpuscles of the sort subse-
quently introduced. This specific prop
erty of the serum can be utilized as
test in medico-legal matters To
carry out the test it is necessary to
have at hand serums already treated
with the red corpuscles of the blood
of sheep, cattle, fowls, etc. Each one
of these prepared serums will destroy
the red corpuscles of one kind of
blood very quickly. The sheep serum
will, for instance, destroy red corpus
cles of sleeps blood in a minute or So
and its effect on the red corpuscles OF
any other blood is very much less
rapid and effective. If then, in any
special criminal case, the accused de-
clares that certain blood stains on his
clothing are spots of Sleeps blood.
and not of human blood, a decisive test
can be made by treating this blood by
the serums previously prepared by the
introduction of the red corpuscles OF
the blood of different animals. If the
serum previously prepared by the in
PRODUCTION of sleeps blood at once
dissoives the stains found on the
clothing of the accused then his plea
was correct and the stains did, in fact.
arise from the blood of sheep II
the serum so prepared does not rapidly
destroy the stains his statement is
false. By trying other serums. pre-
viously prepared, one can be found
that will dissolve the stains on the
clothing and in this way the origin
of the stains can be quickly and sure
ly assigned. This procedure, pro-
posed by M. Ladislas Deutsch of Buda-
pest, is apparently destined to be of
great service in many criminal trials.

Making Cheese in Flanders.

The manufacture of cheese is one OF

this business recently, and even export

People very often marvel at the
cheapness Of the engraved or etched
pearl shells which come from China.
They sell for little or nothing, and
the uninitiated will be apt to wonder
how it is the work can be done SO
cheaply. The reason for it is, instead
of craving the picture into the hard
shell, an operation that would be Ia
borious and slow, the Chinese draw the
sketch on a little scrap of tea lead and
insert it into a pearl oyster shell when
1t is tender. The inside of the shell in
this manner gets an impression of the
sketch from the tea lead picture, and
the Chinese take the lead out and in

Fighting Freshmen sustained.
The death blow to the hat law and
most of the other absurd regulations
was struck of one hundred years ago,
when Levi Hedge, who was afterwards
a famous professor, threatened to
knock down a senior who demanded
that he remove his hat The trouble
was brought before the president of
Harvard for adjudication and he de-
cided in favor of Freshman Hedge.
Although these regulations were ear
~ overthrown the spirit underlying
them was kept alive and frequently
manifested itself in the mistreatment
of members of the freshmen class. The
new college men were smoked out"
taken from bed at midnight and doused
under the town pump. painted with
green or red paint, made to eat or
drink vile combinations blindfolded
and made to run three or four miles,
made to sing or dance or deliver ora
tons, while very often they were shorn
of their hair completely. There have
been many instances of the most vi
cious kinds of practices. Young men
have been thrown into rivers or lakes,
headed up in barrels and rolled down
hill. etc. Occasionally freshmen have
resisted the preparation of these out
RACES. Revolvers have been drawn by
both sides, and when the freshman
who was thus inclined to defend him
self has been caught unarmed he has
often been made to pay dearly for his
self-deIense.
With the progress of education and
civilization these practices have be-
come less common in many Of the large
universities, but they still exist to some
extent and in their worst form is evil

college man to remark the other day:
1.-THE time has come when the brutal
college hazer should be treated in ex-
actly the same way as any other crimi-
nal. No effort should be spared either
by the college or civil authorities to
catch the culprits, and when appre-
hended they should be given the full
penalties allowed by the law. If few
of the young wretches, who are moth
ing but brutes in human form, were
sent to the penitentiary as they should
be for five or ten years it would have a
most salutary effect upon college haz-

Doctor and Barber Disagree and Court

A youth clad in the shabbiest gar
ments imaginable but wearing one
karat diamond ring, furnished a prob
lem in the criminal court that required
the wit and ingenuity of experts to
solve, says the Omaha Bee. It was
necessary to ascertain the lads age
and before satisfactory estimate was
made several attorneys, a barber, a
veterinary surgeon and Judge had
passed judgment unsuccessfully. The
boy is known to the police as doc"
Silcote. He was before Judge Baker
on the charge of having stolen 2S4
pounds of bullion from a freight car
on a Union Pacific sidetrack near the
smelter. When arraigned Silcote en-
tered plea of not guilty. His attor-
ney informed the court that he desired
to withdraw the plea and admit his
guilt. If he were of legal age, as al
legged in the complaint, the admission
of guilt would send him to the peni-
Tertiary; otherwise he would escape
with the reform school. Doctor, come

tective Wizard of the Union Pacific
Railroad Company attempted to prove
that Silcote has been stealing SO long
he must be more than 16, but the court
would not accept deductions for evil
dence. One of the attorneys then joks
ingly made a remark that was taken
seriously. There is man skilled in

Urinary surgeon among the spectators.

opinion that Silcote is more than 16,
as he had several teeth youngsters do
not enumerate among their molars AS
a precedent for expert testimony had
been established, an attorney for the
defense asked leave to call a barber
from the crowd to express an expert
opinion on Silcote's beard. The bar
Der thought he must be younger than
16. The court ruled finally that Silcote
is under legal age and cannot be sent
to the penitentiary. He will be SEN
