STOP CHEATING AT CORNELL.
Students Assembled in Mass Meeting Pledge Themselves to the
 Honor System.

President Schurman, of Cornell uni. versity, suspended all exercises for two hours the other day in order to per init the students to hold mass meet ing to determine the student attitude on the matter of the evil of cribbing. which has grown up at the university.
 Nearly 1,500 students attended and it was almost unanimously decided by the students to reestablish the honor system on a firm basis, the students pledging themselves to detect students guilty of fraud and to organize court to deal with these offenders. These pledges were embodied in the form of resolutions and were sent to the fac ulty, which body in it's meeting promptly referred them to the com- mittee on student conduct. The mat ter will be decided at an early date.
 The question is specially pertine nt, as Dean Crane announced that junior in the arts course had been summari- ly dropped from the university rolls because of plagiarism, It was proved that he copied verbatim a speech from a well-known volume of collections of orations, handed it in and delivered it as his own production. Another stu dent caught cheating in mathema tics will be summarily dismissed.

Butcher Boy,# and Nachad, an al- legged wrestler from Turkey. was the cause for 6much grumbling among sporting men yesterday who paid money to see the affair, They had been led to believe that the Turk was world beater; that he had been training with such Yigor that it was mere child's play for him to tear down trees and throw cows and horses over his head; that he had devoured steaks and chops so rapidly that the butcher near his quarters had fallen in fit, and that when lie faced ,Piening the latter would be rolled into a pancake in short order. It was, therefore, a matter of unpleasant surprise when the sports saw ill Nachad a beefy, greasy individual whose very antics on the mat provoked laughter and gibes. That the Turk knew as much about wrest- ling as an ostrich knows about catch ing mice was evident from the start. When he finally groaned and quit, saving he had been injured, the sports rubbed their eyes and asked one an other why they had allowed them selves to be taken in It will be a long time before another Turk will be able to draw crowd in New York.
 They are telling a story of q wrest- ling bout that occurred down at q Bowery theater the other night, the result of which was prompted by a gallery god. George Bothner was meeting all comers agreeing to throw anybody inside of fifteen minutes. A strong, powerful fellow, who said he was a waiter in one of the Hungarian restaurants on the east side, stepped to the front to try to win Bothners forfeit by staying the limit. For twelve minutes the waiter, on the defensive, refused to be thrown. 1t mattered not what kind of hold Bothner got, he could not put his man down. The waiter was pulling and panting when fourteen minutes had elapsed Both ner bent him over backward, but he twisted out of fall. Then Bothner lifted him up and stood him On his head, but again the perspiring waiter escaped. B~t thirty seconds of time remained. The walters eyes were popping and his fingers were clutching conyulsively at the imaginary coin he thought he saw Bothner had one of his shoulders on the mat and was do- ing his best to get the other down. Just then q man in the top gallery leaned over the rail and yelled:
 ''Ein Goulash.'
 The effect upon the waiter was mag ical. He forgot all about the match and looked up at the gallery. In a jiffy Bothner put him down and got the verdict with but five. seconds to | spare.

PROPOSES LONG RIDE.
Horseman of German Army to At. tempt to Ride from New York to
 Chicago i'm Seven Days.


 According to the New York World Theodore Moll1inten, once crack horseman of the German army, will attempt to break the worlds record for long distance riding by travelling from New York to Chicago in seven days, without changing horses. Mol kinten, who was for three years a member of the First regiment of the German. raiding artillery, said:
 "The record of the world is new held by cavalryman in the German army, who rode from Berlin to yien ma in eight days and half. From New York to Chicago the distance is greater, but I propose to make the trip on one horse, and do it in seven days.
 According to the route of the mali trains, it is about 900 miles to Chi. cago. I may be able to take short cuts and reduce that distance to about S75 miles, which means I must travel 125 miles day. The distance from Berlin to Vienna on straight line is about 400 miles, but there are several mountain ranges to be crossed and the route by horseback is much longer. It would be difficult to say just how many miles the German cav. alryman travelled in making his rec. ord, but it is safe to say he did not travel over as much road as from New York to Chicago. I have en- gagged one of the gamest horses iu New York and propose to test his mettle. I will net leave his back un. til we turn up in Chicago except for the necessary time required for rest, ing and feeding.'

New seasfeIsness Remedy.

Prof. Heinz, of the University of Erlangen, claims to have discovered an infallible and very simple anti dote against seasickness.. '.Draw a long and vigorous breath at frequent intervals he says, land you will never suffer from this malady." The req son, he explains, is because the ini- tia1 cause of seasickness is to be found in lobe of the brain, the sensitiveness of which reacts on the stomach, and that when fresh air is breathed at ire quent intervals the blood becomes charged with oxygen and thus the of fending lobe loses it's sensitiveness. He adds that he has made several ex- periments on himself for the purpose of proving the efficacy of this novel remedy and has also completely cured several persons who used to be sea sick whenever they went on the wa ter. Finally, he points out that the antidote costs nothing and can be test ed by anyone.

GREAT SOCIALEVENT
Presidents Eldest Daughter
 Presented to Society
BRILLIANT AFFAIR AT WHITE HOUSE
Five Hundred Guests Attend Ball In Honor of Miss Alice Roosevelt First White House Debu-
 tante Since 1873.

tante Since 1873.
 WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-Nliss Alice Roosevelt the eldest daughter of Pres ident and Mrs. Roosevelt, was formal ly presented to Washington society last night at ball given in her honor at the White House. About 800 guests in all were present, many of whom either were connections of the Roosevelt fam fly or we'll known society people living outside of Washington. Miss Roose- welt is the first White House debutante since 1873, when Miss Nellie Grant, the daughter of President and Mrs. Grant, was presented to society at a ball which was the gayest social event of the decade.
 The entertainment was given a per sonal rather than an official character by Mrs. Roosevelt whose wish was that Miss Roosevelt should make her debut much as though it had taken place in her own private home rather than in the White House There was no cotillon and consequently no favors. When the ball was opened, the inte- rior of the White House was most at tractive. Never before have the floral decorations been more beautiful. The massive mirrors chandeliers, columns and ceiling of the east room, where the dancing occurred were festooned ard garlanded with smilax, maidenhair fern and asparagus trimmed with bou- quets of carnation. More than mile of green festooning was used in this way.
 The window recesses were filled with palms rising out of banks of yariegat- ed foliage. The mantels were banked with roses and azalias set in tropical crOtons and crowned above with screw pines. English holly was used in pro fusion in the decorations. The red green and blue parlors also were adorned on the same lavish scale.
 When the guests arrived at the White House, they were conducted to the blue parlor, where the presenta- tions were made, Mrs. Roosevelt intro ducing her daughter. The latter pre- seuted charming appearance ill a dress of white chiffon, with white roses. and wearing jewels which her father gave her at Christmas.
 Mrs. Roosevelt wore pure white, with q trimming of white lace and lilac orchids. Miss Helen Roosevelt, a cousin of the president and who also was of the immediate party of the hostess, wore white chiffon, with white satin ribbon, and Miss Cutting wore white lace trimmed with tulle, with pink roses. Miss Roosevelt was the recipient of many floral pieces of beautiful design, sent to her in honor of her coming out day. The presi- dent enjoyed the occasion heartily and mingled freely among the young folks.
 The dancing, which began shortly after 10 o'clock and included a pro gramme of twenty numbers, was held in the. large east room, the scene of so many brilliant functions of the past
 The company who gathered to do honor to the daughter of the chief executive was thoroughly represent ative one of Washington society and also included generous contingent of gentlemen from Harvard, Yale and Princeton universities and society fo,A from out of town.
