"A COLLEGE PRINCESS
Sophia Dhuleep Singh Attending
Women's Medi-
cal.

Chicago. Nov 20.-The Women'S
Medical college has a new Student-the
Princess Sophia Bamba Dhuleep Singh.
If fate had not been against her, Prin-
cess Singh might perhaps today be
queen of India, instead of humble
medical student. Her grandfather
was the last ruler of that empire-the
Eingly Runieet Singh, from whom
Great Britain wrenched the crown, and
also the famous Koh-I-NOor diamond.
The princess has taken it into her head
10 become a doctor. Her home is in
England. but it said she harborS no
special love for the country that took
away her hereditary possessions. 1t
was for this reason that she chose
America for the pursuit of medical
lore.
Princess Sophia Bamba Dhuleep
Singh is n petite princess. and not big
and stately, as n princess is usually
supposed to be. OF course she is dark
and has wavy black hair. and eyes that
flash blackneSS from under long. silky
laSheS If she was queen Of India she
might. with n wave of her slender lit
tie hand. order Il head chopped off as
easily as she now turns Il page in her
big anatomy books. But those days
are over in India. so the princess is
going TO be Il lifeSaver. instead of Il
life-taker. She is living in Il board
ing house on the west side.
\ great stir has been created in the
Women'S Medical college. which is in
Lincoln street near West Harrison.
and is part of. the Northwestern uni
verSity. The young women students
were nearly thrown iuto Mysteries by
the coming of the dainty Indian prn-
cess. who made her first appearance at
the college in a carriage. OF course
She has Il maid-and beautiful silk
gowns, and diamonds: also two great
dogs. who walk with her for exercise
She is about 2S years old.
Maharajah Dhuleep Singh. father Of
Princess Sophia. was only / years old
when Great Britain took possession of
the Punjab and also of the famous
KOh-INOor diamond. the most highly
priced possession Of Runjeet Singh !
The princess was born and rear 4 Il
Christian. Her mother was Il half
caste, Miss Bamba Muller. daughter of
Il German missionary at Cairo, whose
mother was Coptic girl. Queen Vic
toria took a fancy TO Bamba, and when
the marriage with the maharaia took
place became godmother to their first
horn. now Prince Victor Dhuleep
Singh. husband of Lady Ann Coventry,
and the first of the Indian princes TO
marry into the British nobility.

and Montgomery arrived here at an
early hour yesterday morning. and at
EOn-uniOn miners employed at the
Prospect Hill mines near this city. As
Il result two men are fatally hurt and
n half-dOZen more are seriously injured.
The union miners formed at the Union
station and marched to the mines.
Just as the men of the day shift were
COINS on duty they were attacked and
received horrible treatment. The
union men asked for the foreman. Will

in bed said: 'All right: we will get

In the melee that followed Scott and

Other Men That suffered.
Others that suffered at the hands of
the visitors were Robert Mcdaniel,
Posey Knight. John Scott and Kenner
Mars. All are badly bruised about the
lead and face. 1t IS said there that
no word was spoken to Scott until the
fight began. In the fight the stove
was knocked over and a big hole was
burned in the floor. Some of the min
crs. however. picked up the stove and
cXtinguished the fire.
Mine Must Unionize Close.
The house was badly damaged. Al
most every window was broken. and
one of the doors was battered down.
Only forty men are employed. and the
mine is run on the cooperative plan
and Independently. The operators
claim that they cannot pay the union
scale and run. but say they pay the
highest price possible. and in some in
stances pay more than scale prices.
They claim to mine from fifty to sixty
tons n day. and thereby are able to
give n few men employment. There is
great confusion over the attack and
another raid is expected. The union
miners say they will force the mine to
uniOniZe or close up. but one of the two
must bc done. Further trouble is an
ticipIted.

I ~ NE of the fieetest and handsomest
vessels lying in this harbor at the
present time is the crack Ameri-
can four-masted schooner Rosamond.
| Captain d. H. Ward, who is her COM
mander, brought her to this port on
Thursday, February 81. from San Fran
cisco with cargo of general merchan-
disc. She Will return to the Coast in "a
couple of weeks, if not sooner, with a
full load of sugar
The RoSamond is new vessel but
has already proved herself to be one of
the fastest sailing and most reliable of
the many vessels which are engaged in
the trade between the Coast and the Ha-
waiian Islands.
The Rosamond arrived here on her
maiden trip from the Coast on the 18th
of July of last year. Captain Ward has
been her commander ever since she was
launched. She sailed from San Francis
CO on her first voyage to the Islands on
the 18th of June. Since that time she
has made several trips to the Islands
bringing down about 1000 tons of general
merchandise on each trip, and going
back loaded with sugar. She has carried
passengers on every trip, and those who
have had the pleasure of travelling on
her say that she is n most comfortable
and delightful craft.
Travelled on the splendid schooner. upon
the arrival of the vessel in this port.
after most enjoyable passage from
the Coast, extended their thanks to Cap
tain Ward for the many courteses which
they received al his hands, in the form
of communication to the Advertiser.
They expressed their entire satisfaction
with the trip and with the vessel her
self. She is an up-to-date schooner and
is complete in all her appointments. Her
cabins are large and comfortable and the
furnishings are the best that could be
desired In regard to convenience and
comfort the Rosamond can not be ex-
celled.
The illustrations show the schooner
alongside of her wharf, discharging her
cargo and getting ready to take on sugar
for the Coast. Captain Wards stateroom
is also shown, as is also a portrait of the
genial skipper himself Few shippers
can boast as elegantly furnished apart
ments aboard their vessels as can the
commander of the Rosamond.
Captain Ward is well known in this
port, having host of friends in Homo
lulu. Last night there was merry time
aboard the Rosamond. A large party of
the shippers friends were on hand, and
music and Widespread table, such as
can only be found aboard such vessels
as the Rosamond, delighted the hearts
and palates of the ladies and gentlemen
present.
When the Rosamond sails for San
Francisco, in week or two. she will
take several passengers. They may rest
assured that a speedy and pleasant trip
will be enjoyed on the graceful and stur-
dy schooner.
