| Rutland, June 23-William Mason of

the House of Correction about 10 o'clock
Saturday night and no trace Of him had
been obtained up to a late hour this after
noon. Mason was committed to the insti-
tuition about three and one-half months
ago to serve not less than ten nor more

tuition once before and had made such a
good record that he was appointed a short
time ago fireman for the prison, position
given to the most trusted prisoners only.
| The boiler room Is on the extreme north
end of the prison and Mason could not
have been located in better place to carry
out his plan Of escape. He has been working
at night for some time. Saturday he be-
gan his duties at the boiler room at the
usual hour without acting in any way that
excited suspicion. Several hours later
Keeper Holland entered the boiler room
and found the man missing
Investigation showed that Mason had
| filed through an iron bar and was thus
enabled to swing open pair of iron doors
and escape, probably towards the Pine hill
woods only few feet distant. 1t is likely
that he had filed the bar a little at a time
for several days and completed his task
Saturday night. The officials thought he
had been gone several hours when his alb
sence was discovered and no clew to the
direction he took could be obtained.

London, June 25.-Midnight-King Ed

last bulletins. He has made a decided i'm
provement and the feeling at Buckingham
Palace is very hopeful. His majesty is
able to take nourishment. He had scram
bed eggs and a little hook and soda this
evening, and with his own hands he
opened several kilograms
The bulletin issued at II o'clock tonight
is regarded as intensely satisfactory. This
bulletin is generally taken as being the
first occasion upon which the King doc
tors have allowed themselves to express
even to a small degree, the hopeful feel
ings they undoubtedly even though pr-
vately, entertain. Thirtysix hours have
now elapsed since the operation was per-
formed, and the absence of complications
creates hopefuness In all quarters. al
though several days must pass before the
possibility of danger can be eliminated.
Notwithstanding the fact that this is the
eve Of the intended coronation day, and
that London is now even more crowded
with people than 1t was yesterday, the
scenes witnessed on the streets tonight
were in marked and pleasant contrast with
those of Tuesday evening. The reckless
rejoicing which was then so disgrace!ully
prominent was quite unheard tonight.

CORPORATION DINNER.
The corporation dinner was held at the
Addison House. and at this time Dr. Bran-
erd made the very important announce
ment of an action taken by the board Of
trustees He said the trustees contemplate
the establishment of a separate but afi-
ated college for young women; that The
trustees realize, on the one hand the great
and growing and just demand of the young
women of this country for higher educa-
tion, and on the other hand, the evils
that result from 'femimZng' of college
founded for the education of men. In this
way the policy Of Middlebury college in
the matter of co-education will be quite
like that of Brown. Harvard and Columbia
Universities. President Bralnerd called at
tention to the fact that nearly century
ago at Middebury the claims of women to
q board and liberal education We're first
recognized 1t was here that Emma VIII
lard began her great work for the higher
culture of women. 1t was also announced
that Prof Walter +. Howard of the de-
partment of political science and history
had been granted a years absence with
half salary. 1t is understood that Prof.
Howard contempates spending the year
travelling abroad.
The president 5 reception was held at his
residence on Seminary street at o'clock
this evening. The spacious grounds wea
brilliantly lighted with a large arc light and
numerous Japanese lanterns. Dr. and Mrs.
Brainerd received. and light refreshments
were served. Fully 500 people attended the
concert which was held in the Congrega-
tional Church. The following artists APP
peared: Adah Campbell Hussey, Boston
