Five hundred students of the Univer-
sity of Colorado are on strike. They
have revolted over lessons during the
uuarto-centennial celebration. There
were only two or three that reported for
lessons in each class Thursday and none
Friday. The revolt is unique in that it
is the first time in history that stu
dents of a state university have unani-
mously refused to attend classes and
have themselves declared holidays.
There is some talk of President Baker
taking the revolt up and adopting dras-
tic measures with the leaders as an ey-
ample of discipline. However. as every
student is involved. it is generally be-
lieved that he will take no action, but
will treat it as prank.
All the money needed for the con-
struction of the Denver Northwestern

the first section of the road will be
decided upon Friday of this week. bids
for the construction of part of the
road will be received by the Colorado
& Utah Construction Company on De
cember 1st. and contracts for the first

some Interesting Information Concern

From the Boston Transcript.

From the Boston Transcript.
Uncle Sans treasure house - the
United States sub-treasury-at Wall
street, Nassau ard Pine streets, is Of
course the real fountain head of New
York's money supply. OF all govern
ment buildings this Is the most inter
esting on account OF its history and the
safeguards undertaken to protect it from
mob violence and any other sort of out
ward attack 1t is a veritable arsenal,
equipped with ammunition for a long
siege, and surmounted by steel turrets
from which men could command every
thing in sight for blocks around. A
marble canopy Overhanging both en-
frances, with little holes here and there,
adds to the architectural effect and
serves an altogether useful purpose. Be
tween this canopy and the roof accom-
mediation for 80 men is provided, so that
in case Of insurrectiOn they could look
down upon those forcing an entrance
and at the critical moment drop q hand
grenade upon their heads. That would
end the disturbance and give the ambu-
IOnces plenty to do.
The third story contains a first class
arsenal, equipped with 100 breech load
ing, 45-caliOre carbines; 100 45-caiibre
Colts revolvers, and three fve-bore and
one eight-bOre gatling guns, and 22,OOO
rounds Of ammunition. And it Is not a
show" arsenal, either. Once a week
the guns are OverhaUled, cleaned and
oiled and the ammunition carefully ex-
amined. If a trigger is out of order it Is
repaired, and not left until some harum-
scarum mob IS popping away at the
building. Outside the arsenal iron shut
| ters lead to the turrets, where dozens oil
men could repair at a moments notice
The structure Is fire and mObprOOi
throughout, and stands on the site where
George Washington took his oath oI

Jealous Of the large pension expendI- /
ture and that their political influence
was a larger force to be reckoned with /
than the vote Of the veterans, who by
death we're constantly decreasing IN
numbers. At the same time the evil Of /
private pension bills continued and
the pension roll was steadily and rapid
Iv increased by the Spanish
and Philippine war
In all Justice to the veterans of the
civil war, and especially to the nation
al organization of the G. A. R., it must
be said that they favored the ferreting
out out of fraudulent pension claims
and allowances. But why require of a
soldiers widow that she prove her good
moral character before marriage, or
that the pensiOner prove that he was
sound man when he went into the ser
vice? Why reject the rating Of the
medical examining boards? That these
things were done by the department
is alleged, and if so should be inquired
into.
Thousands of veterans that we're pen
siOnable at the close Of the civil war
did not apply for pension, on purely
patriotic grounds, because the nation
was badly in debt; and thousands more
did not apply until the arrears of pen
sion law was repealed and the infrm-
tiles of age, the return in an aggrava-
ted form Of army disabilities, and pow
erty and sickness Overcame their pride
and justified them in making aPPlica-
ton. This is the stuff the majority OF
the old men are made of, and, if the
rulings aforesaid have been made, no
wonder the old men are angry. Sen
ator Burton stated the fact that Evans
was universally hated by the old sol
diers." The grounds are that they have
been put in the light of a class bent on
defrauding the government and raid
ing the treasury.

The congressional committees on
the Philippine bill have agreed to re-
port bill for the coinage of a silver
dollar for use in the Philippines worth
obout so cents in gold It is supposed
that its weight and bullion value viii
be less than its coinage value. In the
former days the free silver men we're
charged with advocating the coinage
Of a 50 cent dollar. But this is one of
the really good things which is con-
templated being done for the Filipinos
provided that the number Of dollars Is
commensurate with their financial
needs.

WITH FORBEARANCE OR SEVERITY,
WHICH2


The commanding general Of the ar
my of the United States, Gen. Miles, is
APPARENTLY persona non grata with the
present administration, because he Of
fered his services in the interests of
humanity to end the war in the Philip
pines. In the generals view Of the
case the war had been waged with Sc
verify, and he offered to take represen-
tative Cubans and Porto Ricans to the
archipelago and to bring representative
FHipinos to the United States, that by
mutual understanding of the inten-
tions Of this government a settlement
Of the difficulties might be reached.
Both the president and the secretary
of war declined the offer, with thanks,
and condemned the general for criti-
cising his fellow officers without a
hearing and characterized the scheme
as Spectacular and sensational" The
general receives reports from all field
operations and consequently is famil-
lar with the situation in the Philip
pines. Besides this, Indian wars under
Gen. Miles direct command had fire.
quently been settled in the way he
proposed-the bringing of delegations
of Indians to Washington. So the
proposition was neither absurd nor un-
reasonable.
The facts are that that in the unfOr-
tunate outbreak in the Philippines our
troops fired the first shot; that the
Filipinos deprecated the affair and
asked for a cessation of hostilities,
which was refused; that prisoners of
war have, been shot; that towns and
villages have been wiped out; that the
"reeOnsentrado" policy has been re
sorted to; that torture by the "water
cure" has been applied, to extract con-
fessions, in hundreds of cases, many
dying as the result of the ordeal; that
about 700 FilipinOs have been con-
demned to death and about 200 execu-
ted and the balance sentenced to a
life Imprisonment; that prisoners have
not been taken in some engagements
and forays; that Maj. Waller, of the
marine corps, is now undergoing trial
for ordering the execution Of his Flip
ino escort on mere suspicion of treach-
cry. These are in substance agreed
statements Of fact, which people ought
to know.
That atrocities have been commit
ted by the FiIipinos no one will deny.
The administration claims that the
war has been characterized on our part
with great fOrbearance, and Gen Miles
says it has been waged with severity.
As to which is nearer the truth let the
public judge, and, at any rate, contend
for national honor.

THE INSURANCE. ROBBERS.

Anyone that has occasion to use fire
fire insurance well knows that the rates
already exacted by the companies are
highly exhOrbitant; but not satisfied
with a net profit of nearly s9,OOO,OOO
made in Kansas alone last year, the
greedy companies have now advanced
their rates in the state . per cent over
the already high premiums asked
This will no doubt be gratifying to
the victims of the insurance robbers,
but would also prompt them to vel
come with acclaim the return Of a
McNall to the office of insurance com
missioner of Kansas. But if worst
comes to worst and the companies con-
tinue to advance their rates, policy
holders can well afford to carry their
own risks rather than pay out in pre-
miums in few years more than their
loss would amount to should their prop
erty chance to be destroyed by fire

1t must be some consolation to Gen.
Miles to know that the showing he
made before the senate committee on
the "army reorganization bill'' had the
effect to make the pet measure of the
war department impossible for passage
both the war and navy department the
management has the appearance Of an
attempt to secularize these important
executive branches Of the government
and make them throughout political
machines. 1t is a dangerous iunova-
tiOn and is sHbversive of both disci-
pline and efficiency.

ventions omitted to mention in their

Teacher Interrupted the story.

From the New York Times.
Ernest Thompson -Seton-he of animal
story telling and converted name fame
was describing to a clergyman the other
day some of his experience with various
animals, particularly squirrels.
1T is an astonishing fact, said Mr..
Seton, that I found, after some few
tests, that I could attract squirrels, how
.sOever wild, by singing to them. When
ever sang they would come out of their
holes or dOwn from the trees. and though
at first showing some timidity, sit and
listen intently and apparently with en-
iOyment. I remember one day. however.
when, after singing them various songs
rag time and Others-I tried Old Humid
red on them Would you believe 1t, the
instant they heard 1t they scampered of,
nor could 1 induce them to return that
day. And to this day 1 can't under
stand why"
The clergyman, a faraway look in his
eye, suggested very briefly:
Probably they were afraid you would
next proceed to take up a collection"

H. CLAY EVANS AND THE VETERANS.

H. CLAY EVANS AND THE VETERANS.
Pension Commissioner 81. Clay Ev-
ans has finally resigned. The presi-
dent requested him to remain until a
successor is named and until a better
place can be. provided for the retiring
commissioner as a reward for his effici-
ent and faithful services. It is also an
nounced that the Evans policy will be
continued in the pension department.
This must be interesting reading for
the old soldiers, especially for the G..
A. R. who opposed his appointment
and fought his policy for five years
They opposed his appointment on
the ground that he only served q short
time, as a clerk and subordinate in the
commissary department.; that he saw
no active service in the field and en-
oured none Of the hardships and ran
none Of the risks incident to campaign
ing at the front. They assailed his
policy on the ground that his rulings
were both arbitrary and unjust: that
they deprived the veterans Of their
rights under existing laws; and the na-
ticnal organization Of the G. A. R. took
the matter up and urged Mr.. Evans re-
moval solely on these grounds, and Of
fered to prove every allegation.

MEDICINAL.

Health is magnet which irresistibly
draws the man to the woman in life's
mating time. Health does more than
tint the skin with beauty it puts music
into the voice and buoyancy into the
step, as well as happiness into the heart.
A great many women covet beauty and
are constantly seeking aids to beautify
them. Let a woman first seek perfect
health and all other charms shall be
added to her.
There can be no general health for
women while there is disease of the
delicate wonianly organism. The first
step to perfect health is to cure womanly
diseases by the use Of DR.. Pierce's Fa-

A SIGNIFICANT SPEECH.

M. Pelletan, the French minister OF
marine, made remarkable speech at an
entertainment of the municipality OF
Bizerta, Tunis, Monday evening, which,
it is expected, will cause the French
foreign minister, VI. Delcasse, some
trouble to explain. After pointing out
the importance of Bizerta as bulwark
of France, NJ. Pelletan proceeded: owe
do not say we want to make the Medi-
terranean a French lake. We have
been cured of the dreams Of the great
man who wished us to dominate the
world But part of the Mediterranean
is French and will remain French.
With this powerful rampant so well sit
uated for defense and also for attack,
and with Corsica and Toulon we can
hold the open door between the two
halves of the Mediterranean, in spite of
Malta and Gibraltar Certainly | do
not desire a conflict of peoples against
England any more than againt Italy, but,
as we do not know what Others are doing,
it is part of our duty to prepare for the
holy war: for the French Fatherland
againstits energies, whoever they may be.
| am convinced, thanks to the fellow
workers with whom am surrounded, that
we can face every eventuality. Security
hardly exists any more for the civilized
world. At the end of the nineteenth
century, after the defeat of France by
the barbarism of Old Germany, we saw
an offensive return of the law of brute
force. The whole world seemed to be
dominated by the maxim, Might be-
fore right We must then devote all
our efforts to keeping intact that focus
of justice and light-French genius" "
NJ. Pelletan concluded with remarking
that he would not say more at present.
He had not yet become accustomed to
being a minister, and feared ne might
be carried away into expressing his
opinion Of matters which exclusively
concerned the foreign minister. France
has at Bizeria powerful military and
naval stronghold, which, with Toulon
on tie north of the Mediterranean,
French military and naval men assert
that Frances naval power in the west
of the Mediterranean is unassallable,
and all that is required to consolidate
the position of France is the construc-
ton of the so-called canal of two seas,
which is to unite the Mediterranean
with the Bay of Biscay, and thus render
her independent of the Straits OF
Gibraltar.

SAVED BY PET DOG.

Clover Hill, the handsome residence
of Simon Friedbergcr, wealthy lace
manufacturer, of Germantown, Pa, was
ransacked by burglars Monday night,
who administered chloroform to the
sleeping occupants before making their
tour of the house. That murder and
burglary did not result is due solely to
the vigilance of pet dog. The barking
of this little animal aroused the neigh
bors and frightened the. thieves away.
In their flight the burglars lett behind
them money and jewelry to the amount
of SS, 600, which they had packed up
ready>for removal. Thomas F. Jones,
the neighbor who first heard the dogs
bark, fred several shots at the thieves,
and then went to the assistance of the
Friedbergor family. All were suffering
from the effects of drugs, and the odor OF
chloroform was apparent in all parts OF
the house. The victims recovered after
restoratives had been applied, and all are
now out of danger. The thieves entered
by climbing over the porch, and then
piied opena second story window. They
first cut out the electric light and burg
lar connections, and then applied the
anesthetic to the members of the Fried
berger family Apparently the servants
were not molested. Unhindered in
their work, the burglars stripped the
clothing and furniture in the sleeping
apartments, and then emptied the silver
closet and wardrobes. Plunder valued
at several thousand dollars, including
diamonds and jewelry, was CARED down
stairs and piled up ready for removal,
when a King Charles spaniel owned by
Miss Lazarus interrupted their labors.
The men were seen to leap from the porch
roof to the lawn, and it was then that
Jones and his two sons fired at them.
The only booty secured was diamond
pin and about $50 in money.
