EDUCATION AND BEER.
pr. Meyer Thinks They Go Well To-
 gether in Universities.

Dr. Edward Meyer, a distinguished professor of the University of Berlin. has been visiting the University of Chicago. Being invited to address the students, he confided to them among other things that beer is used in abundance by German students, and that their beer-drinking is a good GUS tom. It induces the young men, he said, to grow up in happy spirits, and is beneficial in cOunteTacting the ef- fleets of too much study. pr. Meyer could net imagine a German student who neither sang nor drank. Such man, he said, would not be a real Ger man student.
 American students have been known to drink beer, but they are rarely en- couraged in it except by the brewers, and nowhere have they attained the proficiency in it that the German stu dents enjoy. Dr. Meyers talk made scandal in Chicago. The president of the w. c. T. L. grieved sorrowfully to hear a learned man advise drinking, crawling and good-fellowship." A rep resentative of Northwestern university said: "If he had said such things at Northwestern, l think we would have mobbed him." Perhaps mere beer would make Northwestern more toler- ant. We have heard Americans who have studied in German universities remark how hard they worked, how much they learned. and how much beer they drank. Beer and study really seem to go well together in Germany. But in this country the affinity between them is much less noticeable. We don't think our beer does our college boys any particular good.-Harper,s Week ly.

springs. They gave the testimony that they offered at the preliminary evam- ination. The first two said that in the forenoon Zapeda, who had been at their place drinking, made some vague threats directed against Mcdonald, and after the shooting he returned to their place and said with any Ioath that he had killed him.
 Shortly before the shooting Zapeda stopped Whipple and asked him if he had seen any brave men on the street that morning. That was supposed to show that he was in Q quarrelsome frame of mind and a few minutes after that Whipple heard the shot that killed Mcdonald. The defense sought to show that at the time Zapeda asked the question he did not have McDonald in mind at ell, but was thinking Of some young men who had "shot up" the town a short time before.
 The principal struggle of the day came when the next witness, C. A Lewis, of Phoenix, was put on the stand. Lewis was one of those attract ed by the shot. He went to the saloon and found McDonald lying behind the bar. He was questioned on the part of the territory as to what Mcdonald said then and at other times. The witness replied that Mcdonald said that he be- lieved that he was going to die. He repeated his belief and after that he told the story of the shooting. He said that Zapeda came into the saloon and began to quarrel about a letter which McDonald had received from his wife, enclosing a letter which Zapeda had Nxrr Ia out of his place and told him never to come back. Zapeda drew a gun and Mcdonald told him that he was not afraid of him or his gun. Thereupon ZaDeda fired. The witness and others who were outside heard this part of the conversation between the two men in the saloon but they did not see the shooting.
 These statements made by McDon- aid. the witness said, were reduced to writing by Justice of the Peace Root. were read to Mcdonald and were pre- nOunced by him to be correct. The statement was then signed by Wit ness Lewis, John Collins, Ed. McDoa- aid, the brother of Harry A. McDon- aid. and other persons who happened to be in the saloon. The witness inden- tified a document as the so-called dy- ing statement of Mcdonald and the territory then offffered it in evidence. Objection was made on the part of the defense and the jury was taken out of the room while the arguments were made.
 The court decided not to admit the statement at that stage of the pro- ceedings. but said that it's character might later be established by proof Lewis was the last witness of the day
 The order made the day before ex- cluding the witnesses from the court room was modified as to Mrs McDcn- aid, the widow, and Ed. Mcdonald, the brother of the dead man.

DYING MANS STORY
The Bone of Contention in
 Zapeda Murder Case
1t Will Probably be Admitted hut the Way for It Will Have To Be We'll and Carefully Paved.

The telling of the story of the killing of Harry A. Mcdonald at Agua Cali ente on March II of this year, was be- gun in the district court yesterday morning. l did not proceed very far and proceeded more slowly than at the preliminary examination of Frank n. Zapeda, his slayer. At the exam ination there was little conflict be tween the attorneys They permitted the witnesses to relate the tragedy il, very much their own way. But now it is different. Before, only the grand jury awaited the defendant. Now the penitentiary or perhaps worse awaits. Now the attorneys are very careful about what goes to the jury, and how it gees.
 The sympathetic influence of the wife and six children who sat in front of the jury box on Wednesday while the list of men having the fate of the husband and father in their hands, was being made up was somewhat offset yesterday by the presence of the widow of Mcdonald, gowned in deep black.
 When court adjourned on Wednesday night c. A. Streitz, a civil engineer, was on the stand. He had been sent by the territory to Agua Caliente to make measurements of distances about the place of the killing. He had pre- pared a map of the locality, which was spread before the iury. He had also made a diagram of the interior of the saloon where the fatal shooting took place. He had, too, observed the mark of the bullet Tn the mirror back of the bar where it had lodged after passing through the neck of Mcdonald. He described it's height above the floor. which he said was a little higher than the neck of a man the height of Me Donald. That seems like a little cir cumstanCc. but it may be an import ant one, as it bears upon the defend ants story that lg was shooting in self defense. or as it bears upon the dying statement ofMcDonald in contra diction; or as it corroborates or dis. proves the testimony of the physician who examined the wound of McDonald
 Zapeda says that he fired when Me Donald was stopping as if to reach un- der the bar, the defendant thought for a weapon. Mcdonald. in what is called his dying statement, said that he had turned away from Zapeda to show his contempt for him.
 MT. Streitz concludede his testimony yesterday morning and Dr. Rowe, cf Gila Bend, succeeded him. Regarding the wound, he said that the point of entrance was on the right side of the neck slightly in the rear and just above the collar bone The roint of exit was on the left side of the neck. higher up. The doctor dressed the wound. \ Aftnr ha had finfeba5 +a c,,,., Mcdonald an opiate. The defense wanted to know if the opiate might not have been the cause of death. The doctor did not think SO.
 Other witnesses were H. R. Wills. E. M. Wills and Tenbroeck WhippIe. the first two residents of Agua Caliente. and the last a young man of Devil S Lake N. D., who was camping near the

FLORENCE AND FLORENTINES
Excursion to Phoenix Tonight - The
 Late Base Ball Game.

Florence, Ariz., April 96 Especial Correspondence of The Republican, On Friday evening last a most enjoy able dance was held at the Wentworth schoolhouse, about nine miles from Florence. About a score of the young CT set of this town drove over and re- port having lad fine time. The night being moonlight, the drive alone was worth the while, and must certainly have added greatly to the enjoyment of the young people. The Florence orchestra supplied the music and ren-, dered some excellent dance pieces.
 Sunday was another busy day here and although we expected a larger crowd on the excursion from Phoenix, the people who did come were certain ly lively lot and made their presence known at the baseball grounds, which point was the mecca for the greater part of the eXcursionists
 The ball game was a very close cno, both teams contestins every play for all they were worth and both sides had about all they could chew. The game was even up, three runs each. until the last half of the ninth inninr when PhoeniX managed to score

 The orchestra from Phoenix also de- serves praise for the good work it did in giving pleasure to the people. who are toi'1 of music, and the selections 1t gave in the large room of the court house were rendered with nice taste and were qdite a treat to a large number of people.
