A CRISIS IN EDUCATION
President OF Northwestern Uni
versity Says Co-Education Is
Menacine College Work.
Too Few New Male Students
Are Enrolling in the Great
Schools.
Reaction Against Colleges Where
Both Sexes Are Educatsd...
Remedies Suggested.

Chicago, March 29.-Dr. Edmund j
James president elect of the North
western University, presented his first
Communication to the board of trustees
yesterday. On the subject of co-educa-
ton he said in part:
"There are many signs of marked
reaction in the public mind on the
subject of co-education. Friends OF
the movement may we'll view it with
some concern. The tide seems in GER
tain ways to have ebbed A pro-
nounced reaction has set in. Not only
has the system ceased to make new
converts, but there are indications that
lit is losing ground in the very territory
which it had so completely won. A
new period of questioning is upon us.
A sort of a vague prejudice has arisen
in the, country at large which indicates
new attitude of the public mind to-
ward the whole problem. The system
is attacked on new grounds and from
new points of view.
I'VE are, moreover, not left to merely
Theoretical criticism and vague sugges-
ton as to what the public sentiment is
on the subject. This is evidenced in GER
tain quarters by some very interesting
signs The distinct alteration in the at
titude of a number of institutions to-
ward the subject is indicated by their
policy. The rapid growth of attend
ance atSthe women's college during the
past few years Is also very significant
fact.
"All these things and many others of
like kind point to serious crisis IN the
history of this movement, and it be-
hooves those who believe in co-educa-
ton to study the system with all Sc
robustness. The grounds of discussion
have changed entirely in the last gen
eration.i The old objections have lost
their force and entirely new ones; are
now to the front. The motion that
women are incapable of doing college
work SO commonly urged a generation
ago has completely disappeared. The
objection that young men and women
can not be trusted to observe proper
relations in their social intercourses has
lost its force in view of the plain fact
that the moral tone of co-educational
institutions is distinctly higher than
that of the community at large, and is
certainly not inferior to that of schools
for one sex alone.
But, on the other hand, one hears
oftener the claim that the increasing
number of women tends to feminine
the institutions where they are, In some
cases to such an extent as to discour-
age the attendance of men. 1t is urged
with increasing persistence that the
social distractions and designations,
with their widening invasion of the
serious purpose that should go with
school life, form a very serious prob
lem: that while others emphasize the
fact that the broad difference in the
future careers of the two sexes should
find more adequate recognition in the
college curricula."

IOWA WOMAN SHOOTS
Mrs. G. B. Walker. of Miles.
Murders j. S. Judd at Las
Vegas. N. N.
Judd Attempted an Assault and
the Woman Shot to Save
Her Honor.
Tragedy Occurred at Health
Resort Where Mrs. Walker
Was Staying.

Las Vegas, N. M, March 29.-J. 5
Judd, ell-known resident of Topeka
Kas., was shot and killed yesterday af-
| ternoon by Mrs. G. b. Walker, health
seeker from Miles, Ia, in her apart
ments here. Mrs. Walker says Judd
attacked her.
| No one saw the shooting. Judd drove
to town from the Montezuma hotel at
the Hot Springs. He went to Mrs
Walkers apartments, ostensibly to pro-
cure some Photographic negatives she
had borrowed from Mrs. Judd.
A few moments later there was
shot. Mrs. Walker came downstairs,
handed her revolver to her landlord,
told him Judd had attacked her, and
she had killed him. Then she tele-
graphed her husband, who is farmer
living at Miles, that she had killed q
man and asking him to come at once.
Mrs. Walker is calm. She says this
was Judd's fourth attack upon her, and
that, being alone with no one within
call, she had no alternative, and shot to
protect herself.
The murdered man was 55 years of
age. He had three sons, who are ply
sicians, one of whom is chief surgeon
at the Montezuma hotel and sanitar-
iun. Judd and his wife were guests of
this son. They had been here for
months.
Mrs. Walker was here alone. She is
35 years of age and a remarkably hand
some woman a brunette, extremely tall
and graceful, with brilliant eyes. She
came from her home in Iowa last fall.
For time she maintained apartments
in the same residence where Mr.. and
Mrs. Judd were quartered. When she
moved from this apartment-house she
carried with her Some Photographic
negatives belonging to Mr.. Judd.
Her apartments now are over a pho
tographer's gallery near the heart of
the town. Two young women shared
her apartments, but neither was present
rooms she says he asked if she was
alone, and was told that she was. She
says she withdrew to her bedroom to
procure the negatives, and that he fol-
lowed her. He threw his arms around
her, she says, and she struggled with
him until she reached her revolver,
which was on table near the bed. She
fought with JudA, pressed the revolver
against his head, and fired. Judd fell
to the floor without a cry or movement.
An excited crowd answered the re-
volvers report by rushing up the stair
way. Mrs. Walker anticipated them.
Before the first reached her room she
had rushed downstairs and given her.
self and her revolver over to her land
lord. She was placed in charge Of
special officer.
Her room bore evidence of a struggle.
The coroner's inquest has been post
poned until Walkers arrival. Mrs.
Walkers attorneys have ordered her
not to talk.

FOR MINISTER 70 CUBA.

Gen. Fitzhush Lee Talked of for the
Position.
Washington, March 29,-Gen. Fitz-
hugh Lee is now mentioned prominent
ly as the first United States minister
to Cuba.
The Virginian is well thought of by
President Roosevelt, and his services
at Havana previous to and during the
Spanish war have qualified him for this
position to the utmost degree.
Gen. Lee speaks the Spanish Ian
guage fluently, one of the first qualifi
cations desired by the president in the
United States representative at Ha
vana, where many important and deli
cate diplomatic negotiations will take
place.
There Is one obstacle in the way OF
Gen. Lees acceptance of this post. He
is brigadier general on the retired list
He cannot draw two salaries from the
government at one time, and If he ac-
cepts the Cuban mission he would be
compelled to give up his salary as a
retired officer, which is greater than
that of the minister to the new repub-
lie. Then, too, Gen. Lee is a candidate
for the. governorship of Virginia, and II

CAN STOP GAMBLING.
District Attorney of New York Says Al
That Is Needed Is Money.

/ OISIrlCt ATTORNEY OF NEW rOFk Gays ~
That Is Needed Is Money.
| New York, March 29.-District Attor-
ney Jerome announced yesterday that
| If the city would pay the bill he could
stop gambling here. He said: u car
close every big gambling house in town
| if the comptroller will accept my
vouchers for the expenses in so doing
1t would cost at least $1,000 at Dick
Canfield's to get corroborative evidence
Do you think the comptroller would pay
a bill of $3.50 lost at roulette? He would
say that the city is not going to spend
its money that way" Referring to the
a young millionaire in Canfield's house
the district attorney said that that
amount to man with s12,000,O0O was
not nearly as bad in proportion as the
losses of poorer people in pool rooms
and policy shops.
DO you think the police department
will be regenerated in your term of four
years in office?" was asked.
Yes, do. I think, however, that 1t
will take at least eighteen months to
make any show in that direction. The
blacklegs of the police department
think Col. Partridge is nice old gem
tleman who is Immersed in the details
of his department and does not know
what is going on. They will find out
when the time comes. Col. Partridge is
a firm old gentleman who will do his
duty. He's been in Office but three
months and has hardly had time to ar
range the simple policing of the city"
Asked about the expense of getting
evidence, the district attorney said
that the committee of fifteen had spend
$4,000 in that way, spending in some
instances $500 or $500 to get evidence
against a single house. The defendants
would then, he said, be placed on trial
and sent to the city prison for a few
days or fined a small amount. The re-
suits We're dfscouraging, he said.
1t was suggested to Mr.. Jerome that
perhaps society might be found which
would bear the heavy expense of get
ting evidence. His reply was: DO you
know of any society that will put up
$1,000 to get evidence? do not. I'm
not going to spend money out OF my
own pockets when I know that the
comptroller will not make it good"

GREAT PRAISE FOR RHODES.
Englishmen Astonisheu at the Tributes
to His Unique Greatness.

London, March 28.-Englishmen ac-
customed to TRADES from the conti-
nent on the subject of the Jameson
butes to the unique greatness of Cecil
Rhodes. Even leader writer's here were
constrained by the memories of the
parliamentary inquiry to admit his
completely in the millionaires' con-
spiracy against the Dutch republics,
but now that the worlds press ranks
him with Give and Hastings as an
empire builder they are suggesting the
substitution of Westminster Abbey for
his own place of burial in the Matopo
Hills. A memorial service in the ABB
hey can only be arranged with diff
ficulty owing to the transition period
for the coronation, but his own friends
resent the idea that his grave can be
anywhere except in Africa, somewhere
between the Cape and Cairo. A MEM
orial service has been ordered at ST.
Paul's.
All reports respecting the terms of
the will, public benefactions, and the
disposition Of the property left by
Cecil nodes are premature. One of his
closest advisors tells me that the will
was drawn by Hawksley, and has re-
manned in London. The provisions of
the will may not be disclosed for a
week or ten days. Those intimate with
Hawksley are confident that Rhodes
mining and other investments have
been pooled and left en- bloc as trust
for the benefit of South Africa. AL
fred Belt and Hawksley are probably
associated in this trust, and there will
be no financial disturbance in conse-
quence of the Rhodes death. The
steadiness of the South African mar
ket indicates that this belief is widely
entertained. Those who were closely
associated with Cecil Rhodes in his
lifetime do not expect special requests.
They assert that 1t was one of his
cardinal principles that personal SER
vice should be we'll recompensed dur
ing life and that the bulk of his for
tune should be reserved for public pur-
poses In South Africa.

WHY BEEF is HIGHER.
Secretary Wilson Says it is Due to
Scarcity of Corn.

| ~
| Scarcity of Corn.
Washington. March 29-Great pros
perity and short corn crop is Score
tary Wilson's explanation of the recent
advance IN the price of beef. II am not
an expert on the trust question" said
the secretary of agriculture today, but
do claim to know something about
the raising and selling of beef Others
may talk about the beef combine as
much as they like. But to me the raise
in the price Of beef is very easily
Explained. 1t is due almost wholly to
short corn crop last year, and to
a great demand for beef caused by
the prosperity of the people of the
United States. The high price of corn
has made it necessary for western
cattle feeders to send to the south
for cotton seed meal to feed their
stock with. The price of fat cattle on
the hoofsat the Chicago stock yards
has advanced from or cents
pound to cents. Men who have fine
beef cattle to sell can almost get their
own prices.
There is "a great demand for cat
tie, and that means a great demand
for beef. The people Of the United
States are eating more beef now than
they ever did before in their history.
This is because they are making money
and spending 1t. There are not many
families In this country that do mol
have their steaks and roasts and boil
ing pieces. The American people are
by long odds the best fed people in the
world
Under such circumstances it is on
~ natural that the price of beef should
advance. Cattle and meat, like all 9TH
err commodities, have to follow the
laws of supply and demand. The men
who have cattle to sell naturally want
the highest prices they can get It is
the same with the packers and re-
tailers"
