"Sitting on BayOnets."
COLUMBIAN UNIVERSITY.

The rumor has been started among some
of the pupils of the Law School that there
is soon to be another class fight and
grand conflict between the freshmen and
sophomores. Not a single word can be
obtained either in confirmation or denial
Of the rumor by persons in authority in
class matter. When questioned, however
they look wise and shrug their shoulders,
and from their general attitude 1t may be
inferred that some trouble is brewing.
1t has been some time now since such
an event occurred to mar the serenity of
the school, and to a great many of the
pupils a fight or class rush would be high
ly gratifying. The last conflict between
the classes has not died out in the minds
If the students yet and many OF them are
longing for something more Of a similar
nature. The close OF school for the cur
rent term is not very far removed, much
to the regret of the young men, and I'M
less something is stirred up soon their
opportunity will slip by and be gone for
ever. 1t is, of course, far above the dig
nifty of junior or senior student to mix
up in fights or rushes. He may stand off
and enjoy the fray as much as he pleases.

The students at Georgetown University

representative of the junior class and an
other from the sophomore class.
a proclamation was issued to the mem

wear as much green on their persons as
possible and also to sport" green flags

teeth and harden up their muscles for a
grand conflict. The sophomores proclaim

The juniors were aware of the intention
of the "sophs' to disturb their fun, and
prepared themselves accordingly.
Green Was Freely Worn.
On Monday the juniors turned out in
full force wearing green ornaments. Green

green caps. and even outing shirts and
cuffs painted in the favorite color of the
Emerald Isle. were ostentatiously display
ed. Some of the students even had their
hats wrapped in green ribbons.
For several hours no demonstrations
were made on the part of the sophomores.
A large crowd of them. however, gathered
around the heater at the north end of the
long hall in the dormitory. where the
June bugs" were parading up and down,
shouting and singing their college songs.
The "sophs" did not say much. but the
juniors saw by their attitude that they
were only waiting for a favorable oppor-
tunity to begin business.
Bore the Green Flag.
Finally one of the juniors capped the
celebration by bringing an Irish Tag from
his room. Almost Immediately the other
juniors drew back to one end of the hall
and began to sing a popular class song.
Bearing the green flag. the solitary junior
started up the corridor toward the wait
ing 'sophs.''
At the same time one of the lower
classmen stepped forth to meet the ad
vancing warrior. The sophomores also
struck up one of their high class selec-
tons
At the middle OF the corridor the two
lone warriors met. and in less time than

HIS OLD PROSPECT
PINNED OUT WELL,

LOS ANGELES, Calf, Sept. 3.-J.
u. Lewis, who has been employed in
the proofreading department of the
Express since 1895, has fallen heir to
a comfortable fortune, the result or
prospecting in Utah in early days. He
has bidGen farewell to his desk and re-
tires lth the hearty congratulations
IF II his associates
He is a stockholder in the Wabash
mine, where unlimited quantities of
ore of great value were struck last
week. One month ago Lewis $4,000
shares Of stock in the company could
have been purchased for few dollars.
Today the paper is worth $4,000 cash,
and bids fair to double in value.
In 1876 Lewis prospected in Utah
an dlocated several claims Lack of
capital prevented the development of
his property, and Lewis went to San
Francisco in the following year. He
was telegraph editor of the Bulletin
there for thirteen years. Las Angeles
next attracted him, and he accepted
situation upon the Express.
Last October the Wabash company
was formed to develop promising
property in Park City, Utah. When
the strike began to leak out the stock
went skyward. Thursday week it
reached $1.32 share. Today it is sell
ing at prices between 1925 and $3.50

CINCINNATI, O., Sept. 3.-A mother
and her daughter Occupied places in
the same ward in the city hospital,
demented, each unrecognized by the
other, both consumed with the most
fearful and terrifying delusions.
The case of Mrs Annie DeHart and
her daughter, Mrs. Oza Liphard, af-
fords one of the most peculiar cases
on record. Their condition seems
to bear out the theory that insanity
NAL person can become mad by con-
tact with person who is crazy has
been subject of study and debate IF
physicians all over the world.
Whether physicians decide this to be
a case of heredity or not, the fact re-
mains that the mothers dementia only
showed itself after the daughter had
been taken away.
Mrs. DeE1art walked into the re-
ceiving ward leading her terrified
daughter, Mrs Oza Liphard The
former seemed perfectly rational and
wanted her daughter taken care of, as
she had the horrible delusfon that d
man, sworn to stab her with a knife,
was always following in her footsteps.
The young woman was admitted.
A few hours later the hospital
physician was astonished to see Mrs.
DeHart almost carried out Of a patrol
wagon. She had the same delusion
as her daughter. In heartrending
tones she begged the patrolman to pro-
tect her from those she thought was
trying to arm her, Her imaginings
then centered in the hospital physi-
clans. who, she thought, were going 10

Mrs. DeHart's dementia, to all ap-
pearance, is due to contagion. Mother
and daughter lived together. "A few
weeks ago the mother first noticed
that there seemed something wrong
with her daughter. She appeared ter
rifed and the idea grew upon her day
