STUDENTS ARE WITH CUPID.
Organise to Fight "KHIEhts OF
Marble Heart"

Men students of the senior class at
Northwestern university at Evanston
who are engaged to be married met the
other day and formed a secret organi-
cation for the encouragement of mat
rimony. This alliance with Dan Cupid
was made to counterfeit any move that
may be contemplated by the anti-mar-
rage club recently formed at the uni
versity.
Among the prospective benedicts
who are charter members are Hasse o.
Enwall, ]. z. Smiley, A. j. Elliott, A.
w. Campbell, L. P. Kincaid, Martin
Crawford, G. P. Parkinson, Albert d.
Sanders and H. B. Smith. They have
plighted their troth with fair "co-eds"
and many weddings are looked for dur
ing commencement week.
1t was reported at the meeting that
there were many "cases" at the uni
versity where only little encourage
ment was needed to bring the couples
to an understanding and so add to the
membership of the prospective bene-
diets. These ceases" will be assigned
to various members and pressure will
be brought to bear to aid Cupid. This
will be faVorite mode of attack to put
to route the Knights of the Marble
Heart, as the anti-marriage men are
called.

SMALL GIRL AVERTs WRECK.
Runs Down the Track and with
Jacket Warns Engineer of
Horse ON the Track.

A little blue-eyed heroine of eight
years in the person of Clara Schlosser
is receiving homage from scores Of
thankful travellers and the members Of
the Chicago, Milwaukee & ST., Paul
crew of passenger train No. 4. BY her
presence of mind and bravery she
averted a wreck that must have been
disastrous but for her act.
The railway through Greenville. Ia.
makes a sharp turn near the Schlosser
home and the little girl knows as well
as the trainmen when the train should
arrive. A large dray horse in crossing
the track became fastened in the Gull
vert just before the train was due.
Without thought of danger to herself
the little girl threw off her red Jacket
and ran down the track till she met the
passenger train. Wildly waving the red
jacket as she ran she warned the en-
gineer, who managed to stop the train
within few feet of the child. When it
was all overthe passengers had cheered
her and cried over her and showered
her with silver and some gold coins.
She told the engineer that she did not
think about the people on the train.
She was thinking only of the danger
the poor horsie" was in.

LOOK TO AMERICA.
Frenchmen After New Commercial
and Industrial Ideas.
Scheme of Minister of Commerce, M.
MiIIernnd, to Establish Indus
trial College in United States
Highly Commended.

Franco-American commercial rela-
tons and the proposed French indus
trial college in America were warm
ly discussed al a meeting of the French
Industrial and Commercial society at
Paris, which is composed of prominent
manufacturers and business men.
Senator Jules Siegfried, the former
minister of commerce, who recently
visited the United States, greatly i'm
pressed his hearers with his argu-
ments in favor of reciprocity between
the two countries. Hequoted President
Roosevelt's allusion to that subject
in his message to congress, and said
that in case of the miners executing
their threat to declare a general
strike, French industrial interests
could reckon on big supplies of Amer
lean coal.
Francis Kimbie, president of the
American chamber OF commerce, who
was the guest of honor, said the cham
Der was equally DESTROYS of Franco
American reciprocity, and announced
that he had written to the minister of
commerce, M. Millerand, Offering the
chambers cooperation in the project
ed French industrial college in Amer
lea.
Other speakers expressed warm
praise OF NJ. Millerand's college scheme
and the choice of America as the field
for experiment.
Jacques Siegfried said the union of
higher commercial schools had for
warded to M. Millerand an appeal to
extend the scheme to the study of
American business methods, and send
a number of commercial students to
America on the same conditions as the
Industrial students.
M. Siegfried also said that Amer
lea was as equally ahead in CONNER
cial ideas as in industry and proposed
that the society send M. Millerand a
similar appeal. The suggestion was
accepted.
Mr. Neiderlein, representative of
the Commercial museum, of Philadel-
phia, then read letter which had been
sent to NJ. Millerand in behalf of the
museum, offering the use of lab
oratory and workrooms, and even
site for the proposed college. He said
he had just received a reply from NJ.
Millerand, thanking him for the offer,
which was under consideration, and
asking for further particulars as to
how the establishment of the college
would be received by the various Phil
adelphian institutions, and making in
curry as to the estimated expenses OF
the college, etc.
The French government has decided
to make special investigation of
American trusts. Lazare WELLER.
councillor of foreign commerce, and
Maurice La Gotellerie, an engineer,
have been intrusted with the mission.
they will proceed to the United States
to investigate the economic, fiscal and
social consequences which the trust
system may have to Europe and espe-
cially to France.

A surgical operation said to have
been performed at the maritime hos
pital at Cherbourg, France, is attract
ing the attention of Paris surgeons.
Gunner Robert lost three of his fingers
in an accident. The members were
completely severed from the hand AT
their second joints. The hospital sur
geons merely Joined the severed ends
of the fingers to the stumps, and, it
is said, the wounds healed by first in
tention and Robert will suffer nothing
by his accident. Paris surgeons saw
that osmosis in this manner is by no
means impossible, but it is rare even
when the blood of the patient is in
prime condition.

Designs for the Gorgeous Apparel of
King and Queen Decided Upon.
Rich Fabrics and Rare Jewels to De

Three Thousand Precious
stones In Kings Crown.

The designs for the coronation
robes have finally been decided upon.
King Edward will wear a cloth-of-gold
under-jacket embroidered with palm
branches and the shamrock, rose and
thistle. On the kings stole the cross
of st. George, the royal crown and the
rose, shamrock and thistle will be
woven in gold thread. His cape will be
a magnificent garment, decorated with
silver eagles and fieur de-lis and the
national floral emblems.
The queen will wear robes almost ex-
actly similar to those of Queen Ade-
laide, which will be brought to MARI
borough house from Brodie castle,
where they are kept as heirlooms. In
spite of their age they are in excel
lent condition. They are of black vel
vet, manufactured on hand looms,
deliberately embroidered and laced,
having gold trimmings, and with huge
hanging sleeves.
The coronation rites will last four

his state robes.
Over 5000 precious stones, diamonds,
pearls, rubies, sapphires and emeralds,
will be included in the kings crown.
There will be 1850 pure white dia-
monds, and 1870 rose diamonds. The
historic ruby which the king of
CASTLE gave the Black Prince in 1867,
and which was subsequently worn by
Henry V. at Agincourt, is in the center
of the crown, placed in the heart of
maltese cross
