Rapid Growth Of UNIVERSITIES.

Few persons realize the rapid growth
of our American universities. Harvard
and Yale have stood for more than 200
years, but their growth has been most
marked in the last 80. One hundred
years ago Chicago was trading station
protected by rude log fort. The north
west territory. where are now five lead
ling universities, was then a wilderness.
The Pacific coast has become the home
of universities within the last rs years.
Statistics show the enrolment for the
year just closed to be as follows: Har-
ward, Cob; Columbia, Asst; Chicago,
ALAG; Northwestern, 4,007; Michigan,
1926; California, $500; Illinois. 1861;
Minnesota, $3.50; Cornell, 3,43S; Wis

They seal up a dynamite cartridge in

Lost Money and SqueaIed.

The Portland Journal tells a story
Of an Albany young man, who, while
enioving the company Of a young
woman in the North End of Portland,
was induced to part with $40 which the
Young woman appropriated to herself,
after which she left him sitting in a
wine room in one Of the mostnotorlous
saloons in the city. After he dis
covered he had been fleeced he re-
ported the matter to the police and
was laughed at for his pains. Un-
sophisticated young men with money
should keep away from Portland's
North End, or, if they must go there
should leave their money in safe
place. A smiling box rustler in one
of the Portland dives is not a safe
debtor nor the right kind Of COM
panion for a verdant youth with coin.
