that the next month will see 1t ready for

laugh. IL the assertions OF his friends are
to be credited. however. his only difficulty
will be in selecting publisher, as IL is un-

geous offers.
1.-THE story is wholly unlike 'Graustark
or Castle Craneycrow.' said Mr.. Nc
Cutcheon. when asked concerning II, "and

give any more particulars. except to inti-
mate that the scene of the story is laid in

Things for College Boys to Learn.
The Lafayette Journal, speaking of the
recent riot at Lafayette, in which Purdue
students were engaged, says:
"Other universities and colleges have had
riots involving loss of life. well as de-
struction of property, and we have not
heard that any of them have been beneht-
ed in any way by a rough house reputation
thus acquired. OF course the rioters in no
instance had in mind the interests of the
institution, and were not rioting with the
idea of building up its reputation. But IL Is
natural for the friends of education to con-
slider the effects of these barbaric out
breaks. and to make the most of them on
the side of possible benefits, upon the prin-
ciple that a community may receive instruc-
ton and warning by having held up before
1t a dissolute character as a frightful ex-
ample"
Commenting on an editorial in the Indian
apolis Journal, in which ii was stated that
students should learn that laws are made
for all alike. the Lafayette Journal says:
And another thing they should learn Is,
that 1t takes a vast amount of money TO
establish an institution of learning and
keep it running, and that 1t is possible that
a lack of the appreciation of the gener-
osity of those who furnish the money,
might cause them to take on feeling oil
WEAKNESS and disgust with a strong In
clination to shut off contributions. And
still another thing students should learn
and that Is, absolute and cheerful obedl-
ence to the rules of the institution No col
lege president ever asked a student to dc
wrong, and no student ever got into trouble
with the authorities for doing right. "A
student bent upon making the most OF his
opportunities needs no rules to keep him out
of mischief, and when he discovers that he
is more inclined TO riot than he is to books
the sooner he quits and finds job requir-
ing more muscle tnan praln the better IL
will be for him. his friends. and the
school,"

DOES NOT WANT PROTECTION.
Reputation of the Monroe Doctrine
Urged by n Chilean Writer.

NEW YORK, March 16.-The Heraldo ac-

about the Monroe doctrine, in which il
says: South America ought to quietly no.
tify the United States that she does not
seek the Monroe doctrines protection. but
her own. Size also ought to notify Europe
thus: We cannot decorously continue TO
be regarded as Turks. That is TO say, we
are not outside the international law prac-
ticed by the greater powers among them
selves"
The writer ends by saying: Paramount
above everything is our duty to place our
selves in a worthy position before the
world. South America ought to renounce
the invisible benefits of the so-called doc
trine"
The correspondent adds that since the
Baltimore affair many Chileans distrust
the United States more than Europe.
