BUSTED CORNELL
MEN "G|VEN HOURS
Students Who Fai! Not Allowed
TO Stay in ithaca More
Than Five Days.

ITHACA, n. Y, Feb. 13.-"There
are too many lawyers in New York
state, and there are too many new
lawyers being made now" is the new
declaration Of the faculty of the Cor
nell College Of Law.
AS a result Of the midwinter week
Of examinations, just completed, more
students have been busted" in the
Cornell law school than ever before.
A busted" student has five days to
get out of town, and no more than five.
The authorities of the town of Ithaca
stand in with the university authori-
ties, and if the busted" student is
found in town five days after he has
received his walking papers things are
made so uncomfortable for him that he
is soon forced to leave for a more con-
genial climate. And all this happens
in America, "the land of the free"
local tailor tells the following
story:
"This morning a young man came
into my store and asked for a paste
board packing case. When brought-it
to him l saw tears running down his
cheeks. In answer to my questions he
said that he was a freshman and had
been busted His father had told him
that If he did not pass in his work at
college he should never show his face
at home again. I worked hard all
term said the boy, but / got busted
anyhow. l teIegraphed my father to
send me money to come home, and he
wired right back to go where pleased,
but never to come home. l don't know
where to go, and / don't dare to stay
here"
This is only one Of many student
tales Of woe.
For a long time 1t was the proud
boast of the Cornell College of Law
that they had never had one of their
graduates fail in the New York state
bar examinations. But this excellent
standard was not maintained in the last
state examinations, and consequently
the faculty of the College Of Law are
on the warpath now and are not only
busting" right and left freshmen who
they think are not up to the proper
standards, but they have denied to
many seniors and juniors Of the COL
lege the privilege of being graduated
with their classes, and are going to
require them to spend an extra year in
the college before they are given their
degrees.
A howl of protest went up from the
students when they saw almost one in
every ten Of their number expelled
from the college. but this had no effect
upon Dean Huffcut and his faculty.
Long petitions were drawn up and
presented praying for the reinstate-
ment of the busted" students. 1t was
all to no avail, the Cornell law pro-
fessors declaring that they We're deter
mined to raise the standard Of legal
education in New York state.

ARTIST IS FORCED TO
STEAL TO GET FOOD
Boston Painter Resorts to Theft to
Save Family From Starvation.

BOSTON, Mass, Feb. 1S.@The police
today arrested George P. Osborne, a
landscape artist of this city, on a
charge of larceny, and Osborne has
confessed. The officers say that he
was forced to steal to get food and
keep home for his wife and children.
Osborne, the police say, states that
he had worn himself out trying to find
a market for his pictures and had, ac-
cepted employment at painting signs
for a clothing store. This brought lit
tie money.
When his wife and children were
cold and hungry, and his landlord
threatened to put them out Of their
tenement, Osborne says that he took
several garments and pawned them.

LAPPS ARE INDEPENDENT.
Nominally They Are Subjects Of the
Car, Virtually They Are Free
as the North Wind.

In the Russian empire is a race Of
people who are supposed to he under
the cars rule, but who are practical
ly independent, for the simple eason
that the Russian soldiers cannot get
at them. Everybody has heard of
Lapland, in northern Europe, but
there are two kinds of Lapland. One
is ON the very edge of the continent,
in a country so barren and desolate
that about the only living creatures in
it are the reindeer on which the
northern Lapp exists, the wolves,
which live on the reindeer, and the
Lapp himself.
In this territory, says the New York
Tribune. the herder Laps roam at
will. The country is more passable in
winter than in summer, for it is ira
versed by numerous rivers and marsh
es, which can be crossed only when
frozen over, unless the traveller carries
his boat on his back. But with the
coming of winter the Laps utilize the
icebound rivers as t~horOughfares in
their travels. They know the best
~foraging grounds and the places where
shelter may be afforded for a weeks

PUG DRESSED LIKE A BABY
How Teddie's Mistress Managed to
Carry Him Back and Forth
on Street Cars.
This is a real true dog story.

This is a real true dog story.
He is a pug. and a great pet of his mis-
tress, who is very fbnd of his fine pedi-
gree. One day she discovered that Ted
die could not see as we'll as usual. She
felt as sad as if he were a brother or sis
ter. and a famous oculist was consulted,
who told her to bring her pet dog to him.
They started, but a great obstacle pre-
| scented itself. Conductor after conduc-
tor insisted that the dog should not ride
on his car; so it was only after getting
on and off about a dozen times that the
doctors Office was reached.
Teddie was as. quiet as could be while
having his eyes examined, and his mis-
tress was told she must bring him every
day for a month. and all would be done
for him that was possible. So Teddie'S
mistress went to a neighbor who had a
small baby, and borrowed an outfit that
was not too dainty. Teddie kept very
quiet while being dressed in the long
white dress; then a cloak and muslin
cap, and over the face a long white veil.
Thus they started. Immediately upon
entering a car, if it was filled, up would
jump a man to give the lady carrying a
little baby a good seat. Teddie never
wagged his little curled-up tail once,
neither did he even bark.
Each day the trip was taken with the
same result-a good seat and a very
quiet baby.
\ One day the doctors Office was filled
with people waiting thehir turn, when a
lady turned politely TO Teddie's mistress
and said: my turn comes next. but /
will wait for you on account of your
baby. 1t is so very tiresome to wait with
a baby"
The doctor opened his door at that mo-
ment and called them both in his pri-
vate Office. He said: 81 will show You
the very best patient 1 have" and took
Teddie carefully in his arms. He threw
back the white veil and disclosed the
dogs little pug nose and pert little face.
looking out cutely from under the frills
of the cap.
Teddie can see pretty we'll out of n
eye now. His mistress expected a huge
bill for the experts service, but instead
she received a receipted bill from the
good doctor. with a note saying that as
Teddie was the first patfent he had yer
treated of royal dog blood, he esteemed
it a great honor to have been the means
of helping him.-Cincinnati Commercial
Tribune.

encampment. The resting places OF
these nomads within the arctic. circle
depend upon the moss patches-the
food of the reindeer. When it has
been eaten off the ground they must
strike camp and go elsewhere. AS a
herd of 100 deer will soon strip half a
dozen acres of the moss growth, 1t
everything around the settlement,
even the shoots of the birch and will
low trees, as far up as they can reach.
So away goes the band, and the place
may be deserted for several years.. as
it requires three or four aso for
ground from which it has been eaten.
This is why the Lapp wanders
through valley and over plain, as does
the tribesman of the desert. He must
move to live, but this sort of life has
sharpened his wits, and he is as
shrewd at driving a bargain as the
proverbial Yankee or Scotchman.
1t is not strange that the aged
women are ugly when it is remem-
bered that years of bending over the
fireside with the inevitable pipe have
smoked them within and without al
most into living mummies. When
placed in her pulkah during the fam
lily migration, grandmother is as bur-
led in furs as the youngest baby, and
when the tent is put up at the new en-
campment she is the first to be car
ried in. The fact is that the true Lapp
looks after his old better than his
young. He may be a thief, liar and
vagabond, but this can be set down
to his credit. After the aged come
the reindeer, then the younger women
and children.
The average Lapp of the north
country hates water as much as a cat
does. Such a thing as a wash is al
most unknown. In the winter fam
lilies of a dozen or more live in their
little snow covered huts, crowded to-
gether like sardines in a can. The wa
ter they need for cooking and drink
ing comes from the snow, and fuel is
SO scarce that the idea of melting
snow for bathing would be considered
a crime. Consequently when spring
comes they leave their tents with
their skins nearer the color of leather
than a human tint-the results of
combining dirt and smoke. The Es-
quimau has been called the dirtiest
race on earth, but it is a question if
the Lapp cannot give an Esquimau
pointa .Gnd beat him in this respect.

the tobacco trade was enormous. and all small

most Of the land was given to the culture OF the
plant, and the profits Of tobacco became so allUr-

for Il. II became such rage in England that
a crusade was started to suppress the use of it
by James 1. In 1908 he issued his famous "COun-

were worth shillngs. Some Of the penalties
were most severe for its use. For just taking
