acts of thoughtless boys who are
now only too sorry for this feature
of the evening.
The object of the meeting was to
taunt the freshmen and junior
academies who were booked for
a jubilee of their own. The fresh
men were to give the Juniors II
reception in the University parlors
Friday night and as had been the
custom the other ella sses sought to
detain and even prev, ant some of the
C lass enthusiasts from participating
at the reception. Some were caught
and held while others were locked
up; others however not offering
much resistance were released and
allowed to go on their way rejoicing.
Certain indignities were shown
some of the professors mainly be-
cause their motives were mis-
interpreted when they appeared on
the scene. Some felt tn e professors
were e%spousing the C use of the
Juniors and frashies ind had not
come as friendly adv lsers. Urged
on by false incentives the students
did various things of minor impor-
lance not becoming a cool headed,
well meaning body of young men.
Half a cord of DR.. Jesse7s wood was
carried onto the qua d rangle and
converted into Il bonfire
The police was called and APP
peared on the scene when Onl
II few of the party remained. Six
students We're arrested by the police
and taken before some of the Uni
versity authorities where they gave
their names and were released.
The matter is now being inves-
tigated by the discipline Commit
tee and will be dealt with promptly
and in a manner similar to other
occasions. Where property was
destroyed or injured, the parties who
aid it ought to be handled without
gloves; where violence was resorted
to unjustifiably the guilty should
pay the penalty.
The discipline committee has sus-
pended two students for the remain
der of the term, and seven others
for two weeks. Other suspensions
may follow.

Fifty Teachers Examined.

The first regular teachers eX-
animation of the year was held
March 2l-22 in the Agricultural
building in Columbia, conducted
chiefly by Prof. Carter of the Coun-
ty Institute Board. About fifty
teachers took the examination,
several with a view to having their
grades recorded on State Ger
tificates. Under the new law three
examinations are held annually, in
March, June and August.

MODERN AUDITORIUM.
Another Building for Christian
College to be Built Soon.

Columbia is about to take another
step forward and a big one. A $685.
600 building is the exception rather
than the rule in all localities, but no
less an imposing building than this
has been planned by the ladies who
have, in the new Christian College,
shown us that they can bring their
plans to fruition. 1t has been adj
mitted on all hands that q new
Chapel must soon be erected, not
only to correspond architecturally
with the handsome building that
two years ago replaced the old
Christian College, but to cope with
the demands incidental to an en-
larged school and a growing town.
We believe it was i'm the minds of
the Principals, at the opening of the
new Dormitory building, to continue
the construction, as opportunity oc-
cured, of other buildings in har-
mony with their general purpose of
making Christian College second to
none of the great schools for young
women in the United States. They
have been quietly working towards
this object, so quietly that only
those Immediately interested have
known that plans have been drawn,
contractors bids entered and a con-
siderable portion of the money
| nnn1n1 olranAu raiSn1 for fhn first
building, the main purpose of which
will be for use as an auditorium,
capable of seating about one thou
sand people. But the plans are so
drawn that this handsome building
of stone and red pressed brick will
contain also adequate accommoda-
ton for a library, art studios, and
a gymnasium, all of which are badly
needed, the rooms now in use being
altogether too small for the i%ncreas-
ing numbers of young ladies who are
attending this old-established insti-
tuition under it's new regime. The
new building will be connected with
the west end of the Dormitory build
ing by a portecochere and it is
hoped to have it ready for use by
next September, when the College
re-Opens.
The cost of the new building was
estimated at $25 ZOO, but the lowest
bid was $1,000 more than this. To-
wards the building fund three gem
tlemen have given the generous
donation of $4,000 apiece in the form
Of scholarships. They are w. H.
Dulany, of Hannibal, Mo-, b. F..
Lowry, of Columbia, Mo-, and
Frank Coop, of Southport, England.
Residents of Columbia and others,
also, have subscribed and the trus.
tees are heartily cooperating, but
the complete list is not ready for
publication.
Miss Mary l.. Hale, the architect
of the new domitory, has drawn the
plans of the proposed auditorium.

of which the aforesaid fat, fortu-
nate faculty members we re closeted
for hours. IT'S hoped the subject
matter of the same was well di-
gested.
The Board of Curators has recent
ly set apart the sum of 5000 for use
in the Domestic Science Depart
ment; so that as soon as the new
stock building is completed, and
certain parts of the Agricultural
building vacated, two new sewing
rooms will be added to Miss Zabris-
kie's apartments.

MERGERS Omnibus Bill.

Representative Mercer, who success

the measure was the first one of Its
kind ever passed.

Ger, "away back in the year one, when
an omnibus lighthouse bill was passed.
but the effort to pass an omnibus pub
lie building bill was never tried before.
The success of the experiment proved
it's wisdom. The last time we under
took to provide for public buildings we
were at work for four days in the
house and appropriated $19,0OO0O0.
This time we only appropriated ST.
100000 and got the bill through IN
three hours. When you remember the
total amount for public buildings sug-
gested in the bills introduced aggregat'
ed S67 100000, l think the country will
appreciate the care as well as the SIKH
we had to exercise in order to secure
q measure that would command the ap
prevail of the house."

Not many people know that Thomas
Jefferson was a great inventor. His IN
ventions were all Of articles of every.
day use. He devised a three legged
folding camp stool that is the basis OF
all camp stools Of that kind today. The
stool he had made for his own use was
his constant companion on occasions OF
outings. The revolving chair was his
invention. He designed q light wagon.
A copying press was devised by him
and came into general use. He also In
vented an instrument for measuring
the distance he walked. A plow and a
hemp %cultivator showed that his
thoughts were often on agricultural
matters. His pillow received a gold med
al in France in 1880. Jefferson never
benefited financially by his inventions,
but believed they should be for the use
of every one without cost.-St. Louis
Post-Dispatch.
